The best Pokémon you can use against Terrakion in raids are Metagross, Zarude, and Excadrill.
Metagross is a Psychic and Steel-type Pokémon. It features strong offense and defense stats, making it a worthy team member, and it’s incredibly flexible. You can use it anywhere in your raid lineup. The best moveset to teach Metagross is the fast moving Bullet Punch and the charged attacks Meteor Mash and Earthquake.
The next Pokémon is Zarude, a mythical Dark and Grass-type Pokémon. It is a relatively new arrival in Pokémon Go, but given its unique type and excellent mobility, it has become a strong staple in the Master League. The best moveset to teach Zarude is the fast move Vine Whip and the charged attacks Power Whip and Dark Pulse.
The last Pokémon we recommend you use is Excadrill, a Ground and Steel-type Pokémon. Excadrill has higher attack stats than defenses, but it’s a decent Pokémon that you can use to do heavy damage against Terrakion. The best moveset to teach Excadrill is the quick move Mud Slap and the charged attacks Drill Run and Rock Slide.
