About Artikodin's attacks
Artikodin is a Flying and Ice-type Pokémon. It is therefore sensitive to Electric, Fire and Steel types but above all doubly weak compared to Rock type. If you don't have all of the Pokémon we present here, you know which type to focus on.
Artikodin can have 4 different charged attacks: Ice Laser (Ice type), Blizzard (Ice type), Ice Wind (Ice type) and Ancient Power (Rock type). It can also have 2 quick attacks: Ice Shards (Ice type) and Ice Blast (Ice type).
As you have seen, all these attacks are very homogeneous. The best counters therefore do not change depending on the Legendary bird you have in front of you. Note that the best Artikodin in PVP has Ice Shards and Ice Wind.
The best Artikodin counters on Pokémon GO
Charkos (Anti Air / Landslide) Mega Charizard Y (Dance Flames / Burst Fire) Rhinastoc (Anti Air / Rock-Boulet) Mega Charizard Y (Flame Dance / Fire Burst) Terrakium (Anti Air / Landslide) Tyranitar (Anti Air / Rock Blade) Mega Demolossus (Fire Cracks / Flamethrower) Amonistar (Stone Throw / Landslide) You can rely on this listing since it was trained using very robust combat simulators. So these eight Pokémon are definitely the best, but don't get demoralized if you don't have them all. There are other good counters like Darumacho, Démétéros or Gigalithe for example!
