Alolan Raid Bosses Tiers, Difficulty and Best Counters Chart

Alolan Pokemon are coming to Pokemon Go the coming weeks, so now it’s the perfect time to get to know them a little bit better and I hope to see them as Raid Bosses after their release.
Alolan Raid Bosses are not going to be hard to beat, so most Pokemon Go players are not going to need an ‘army’ of Pokemon. It looks like most of them can be defeated solo, and only few will require 2+ players.
Without further ado, take a look at the chart below, thanks to our scientist Zyxwgh, and if you have any suggestion, please let me know in the comments below.
