The best Mewtwo meters in February 2021
Below we answer some of the biggest questions about Mewtwo raiding, but first we wanted to help you train your Mewtwo counter team. As a Psychic-type Pokémon, Mewtwo is weak against Bug, Dark, and Ghost markers. You should have a few available to you, but the best options are in the table below. Read on for the intricacies involving Mega and Shadow Pokémon.
If you're a higher level player with a nice set of Mega and Shadow Pokémon to choose from, you have more options for Mewtwo counters. Mega Gengar with Shadow Claw and Shadow Ball is your best bet, but Mega Houndoom with Snarl and Foul Play or Mega Gyarados with Bite and Crunch will do the trick as well. For shadows, you can use Shadow Mewtwo, Weavile, or Tyranitar with the move sets listed above if you want the best counters. Now let's move on to the full Mewtwo Raid guide below.

Here are some frequently asked questions and important tips for Mewtwo raids in Pokémon GO for February 2021.
When do Mewtwo raids start and end in February 2021?
Mewtwo will begin appearing in Five Star Raids in Pokémon GO alongside the Kanto Tour event. It starts on Saturday, February 20 at 9:00 a.m. in your local time zone. Thankfully, while the Kanto event only lasts for the day with tracking bonuses and activities to track, Mewtwo will be sticking around until the end of the month. He will leave on Monday, March 1 at 8 a.m. local time.
How many players are needed
Mewtwo is one of the toughest raid bosses in Pokémon GO, so you need to prepare for a tough battle. Based on previous appearances, it's possible for a small team of three to beat him, but everything is on his side. High level players with best friend bonuses and a strong team of top scoring against Mewtwo can accomplish this, but for the rest of us, we need more friends. Try to have at least five players before picking up Mewtwo and watch the weather to be on your side.
What weather stimulates Mewtwo and the meters
Mewtwo is boosted by Wind with his amplified CP and Psychic attacks. Unless you have a great team, you should avoid this. Instead, you'll want to watch out for the Fog, which will increase your counters' Ghost and Dark-type attacks giving you the edge. Mewtwo also has a large moveset, so pretty much any weather can give his charged attacks more power. Just be careful and watch what he's using, then adjust your meters if necessary.
What CP for 100% IV for Mewtwo
Mewtwo has the following CP ranges depending on the weather.
- 2294 to 2387 CP without weather boost
- 2868 to 2984 CP with windy weather
A caught Mewtwo will be at level 20 without the Windy Weather boost that takes it to level 25.
Can Mewtwo be shiny, how to get shiny Mewtwo
Shiny Mewtwo was available in the past and will be available again for the Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto and Beyond event. You have about a one in twenty chance of encountering Shiny Mewtwo when you defeat him, so the only way to get one is to do as many Mewtwo raids as you can. The more you do, the higher your chances of getting a shine.
And that's our Mewtwo raid guide for February 2021, featuring all of the best Pokémon GO counters.
