Mega Glalie is the mega evolved form of Glalie, which makes its Pokémon Go debut as part of the 2022's Mythical Wishes Winter Holiday event in Pokémon Go.
Like all Mega Evolutions, Mega Glalie can’t be directly caught in Pokémon Go. Instead, you need to keep defeating it in Mega Raids until you’ve collected enough Mega Glalie Energy for its evolution. Thanks to the summer 2022 Mega Raid rebalance, this can now be done in one Mega Raid if you defeat it Glalie enough!
Below you’ll find Mega Glalie’s counters and weaknesses to help you succeed in Pokémon Go – just remember you need to have an Glalie in your Pokémon storage to perform its Mega Evolution.

(Image via pokemongolive.com) | Image credit: pokemongolive.comMega Glalie Mega counters – Mega Charizard (Y ideally, X is still great) or Mega Houndoom with double Fire attacks are your best options. Mega Blaziken is a good choice if you want to boost everyone you raid with.Mega Glalie non-Mega counters – Fight Ice with Fire, or Fighting if you have Terrakion with Double Kick and Sacred Sword. Keldeo (if you bought one) is great with Low Kick and Sacred Sword, while Lucario with Counter and Aura Sphere is also excellent. Reshiram with Fire Fang and Overheat is great, while Metagross with Bullet Punch and Meteor Mash continues to overperform. Beyond that, you're looking at your stadard raid team – Darmanitan and Chandelure for Fire attacks, or Rampardos with Smack Down and Rock Slide if you have one. A maxed out Master League Dialge even works well here if you don't have the above.Number of players to beat Mega Glalie – Mega Glalie can be beaten by just two players if you have good enough counters, and soloed by a Level 50 player with maxed counters. Three players at level 40 is totally reasonable, and five players at level 30 should be fine, as long as you bring the right Pokémon to the battle!Tactics – As a pure Ice-type, Mega Glalie has a lot of weaknesses for you to exploit — if you’re battling in a group, be aware that most players will be bringing Fire-type Pokémon, so running with a Fire-type mega will boost your friends’ Pokémon's abilities. Mega Blaziken isn't the strongest option here, but it’s an interesting choice as it will also boost the Terrakions and Lucarios that will be fighting alongside you.Mega Glalie CP in Pokémon Go

According to the official Pokédex entry, ‘It has a body of ice that won’t melt, even with fire. It can instantly freeze moisture in the atmosphere.’
Mega Glalie, meanwhile, is vaguely terrifying if you think too hard, especially when you look at its original in-game Pokédex entries which talk about how its jaw breaks. Its official Pokédex entry, however, simply reads: ‘When it spews stupendously cold air from its broken mouth, the entire area around it gets whited out.’
