Brionne, also known as the Pop Star Pokémon, debuted in Generation 7 and is making an appearance in Pokémon GO Raids. This solely Water-type Pokémon is vulnerable to two typings: Grass and Electric. The list of resistances is a bit longer, though, with Brionne being resistant to Fire, Ice, Steel, and Water-type moves. It can be taxing trying to figure out which Pokémon are effective against a Raid Boss, so those struggling with choosing a Pokémon for battle should check out raid guides like the one below.
