Electric Type Grunt - "Get  ready to be shocked"
It might be shocking how easily this grunt is taken down when you exploit Electrics only weakness: Ground. This grunt holds some of the strongest Electric type raid attackers that are currently in the game. Taking on any of these grunts is highly recommended as Electric is a key type in taking down some of the stronger raid bosses in the game.

Supreme Counters
 Excadrill can Drill its way through this grunt. Slap Mud Slap with Scorching Sands and Rock Slide (if you have a second move unlocked) to take down Galvantula.
 Mud Slap + Scorching Sands
Garchomp is the absolute way to go here. It almost takes negative damage thanks to its Dragon and Ground typing from any Electric moves, and Chomps it's way through this grunt with Mud Shot and Earth Power easily.
 Mud Shot + Earth Power
Good Counters
Groudon is a fearsome pokemon that will make any Electric type tremble easily. Unfortunately, it lacks a charge move it can reliably spam out, making it a bit clunky to use.
 Mud Shot + Precipice Blades
 Much like Mamoswine, Landorus would ideally have Bulldoze paired with Mud Shot for this grunt, but Sandsear Storm as a charge move is overall better on this Pokemon.
 Mamoswine will perform great here with Mud Slap and Bulldoze.
 Mud Slap and Bulldoze.
Other Good Counters
In conjunction with the above counters, several other Pokemon do a great job here, including a number of generally great Pokemon in the Master League. Feel free to mix-and-match a bit, as any of these and beyond can do a great job as well!
