Leader Arlo of Team GO Rocket is back in January 2023 of Pokémon GO, sneaking about the AR realm attempting to claim PokéStops for his villainous faction. There is no doubt that Arlo is a challenging opponent due to his strong lineup of diverse pocket monsters, some of which are top-tier Pokémon in Raids and PvP. For instance, he is capable of dispatching the mighty Salamence, Dragonite, and Charizard. Needless to say, it is more than essential that challengers know the best counters to use when confronting this slick-haired fiend in January 2023 of Pokémon GO.
