How to defeat Canari in Pokemon Legends Z-A
Excadrill is a great counter to Canari’s entire team for this battle. You can also choose a few more Ground-type attack Pokemon to fight in the first few stages to make the process easier. Since all four enemies are vulnerable to Ground abilities, you can simply spam moves and secure the win.

The first three battles are comparatively easier to win as the opponent will have lower HPs. Try to dodge incoming attacks and use Excadrill’s Bulldoze and Dig moves to deal with the Electric-type foes. When the final match starts off with Mega Eelektross, you can begin by attacking the enemy with Earthquake and Bulldoze.
