There are many excellent and reasonably priced alternatives for raiding Cresselia. Shadow Ball Mewtwo is an excellent option. Dark type moves are well-suited to Absol, Houndoom, Honchkrow, and Sharpedo. Bugs like Pinsir, Escavalier, and Scizor are excellent options. If you have the Shadow forms of any of these Pokémon, they will strike significantly harder and help you complete the raid faster!

Ice Futuresight is a frightening move, but only against Dark-types. Tyranitar fares well against Cresselia’s Futuresight, easily repelling its assaults. A well-executed technique that totally kills Gengar.
Moonblast is a powerful Fairy-type move that delivers extra damage against Tyranitar. It’s nothing revolutionary, but it’s still a powerful move.
Aurora Beam may seem perplexing, but don’t worry, it doesn’t inflict more damage to Mewtwo, Tyranitar, Gengar, Scizor, or Weavile. One of, if not the, simplest move sets to combat.

Cresselia is boosted by Windy weather, while being more vulnerable in Fog and Rainy weather.
