Also you can try Shadow Machamp with Karate Chop and Dynamic Punch and/or Shadow Charizard with Fire Spin and Blast Burn.

And if you want to use a Mega evolution we suggest Mega Charizard Y with Fire Spin and Blast Burn above all others. Once you defeat Regice you might get a special surprise.

Just like for Regice Mega Charizard Y is your best choice for a Mega evolved counter. There are also Shadow versions of the above, so if you have them with the right moveset then be sure to use them. Along with this list you can toss in Shadow Entei with Fire Fang and Overheat, Shadow Machamp with Counter and Dynamic Punch, and Shadow Charizard again with Fire Spin and Blast Burn. But why use these counters against a Pokémon you’ve likely beaten and caught before?

Shiny Registeel is available for the June 1 to 17, 2021 window. The alternative color scheme makes for a great collectors item if you missed it last time. While you may not be using it much in raids and PvP battles, it’s still great for trades or just to collect.

And that’s all of the best Regirock, Regice, and Registeel raid counters in Pokémon GO for June 2021. We also answered the question of if Shiny Regirock, Shiny Regice, and Shiny Registeel are available for the month. Be sure to get them before they leave on June 17th.
