In Pokemon GO, Trainers can capture a wide variety of different specimens, which can all be encountered through different methods, and at various levels of power. Ultra Beasts are among some of the strongest Pokemon in the game, so it's no surprise that obtaining them is usually restricted to special events, occasions, and 5-Star Raid Battles.

As part of Pokemon GO Fest 2024, which takes across June and July 2024 as part of the Shared Skies season, a handful of Ultra Beasts will be up for grabs in 5-Star Raids. Celesteela is one of these featured Pokemon, so many Trainers will be acquiring this specimen through this opportunity. Not further utilizing a beast with such potential would be a waste, so to ensure players get the most out of Celesteela in battle, the best moveset that should be equipped has been explained in the guide below.
