Ke Ke Ke Ke in Pokemon GO is primarily a Ghost-type team, and Dark-type Pokemon like Tyranitar can dominate the battle. Dark-types are immune to Ghost-type attacks used by the Grunt's team, making them the safest and most effective choice. Additionally, Tyranitar's dual Rock-typing helps against some of the other Pokemon in the Grunt's teams.

Ghost-types can also be a potential choice. However, this can be a double-edged sword as critters of this type also take super-effective damage from other Ghost-type Pocket Monsters. Do not bring Normal or Fighting-type monsters, as Ghost-type Pokemon are completely immune to these attack types.

Consider adding a Pokemon with high defense like Rhyperior or Garchomp to soak up damage. Bulky options like Swampert or Metagross can also be helpful, offering additional resistance against specific members of the Grunt's team.
