Should you Purify Shadow Mewtwo? Under no circumstances, no. Shadow Mewtwo is disproportionately stronger than its normal form, and here's why. This means even with the lowest IVs a trainer's encounterable Shadow Mewtwo could have been coded with at GO Fest 2020, it will hit harder than a 100% IV standard Mewtwo.
It's a Psychic-type Pokémon, making them weak to Bug, Dark, and Ghost-type Pokémon. Your best chances to take it down in the final fight is to use Mega Houndoom, Origin Giratina, Gengar, Chandelure, Darkrai, Hydreigon, Tyranitar, Weavile, or Mega Beedrill.

For Cliff's second Pokemon, he will either use Machamp, Onix or Electivire. For his Third Pokemon, it will be Tyranitar, Swampert or Torterra. Below is a list of counters and the most effective moves against each of Cliff's potential Pokemon.
His first Pokémon as of the Spring 2020 changes will always be Pinsir. This bug type Pokémon is weak to fire, giving you a few options. Here's the best counters: Moltres with Fire Spin and Overheat, Blaziken with Fire Spin and Blaze Kick, Chandelure with Fire Spin and Overheat, or Volcarona with Fire Spin and Overheat.
Tyranitar might seem rather intimidating at first glance, but he is easily countered by Fighting-type Pokémon. Your best option going into this battle would be to use Lucario, but other strong Fighting-types will work too, such as Machamp or Heracross.
What is steelix weak against?
Ground
Fighting
Fire
Water
Best Tyranitar counters are strong Fighting type Pokemon like Machamp, Hariyama, Breloom, Lucario and Blaziken.
If the Lapras has a water fast attack, a Giratina-A with Shadow Claw and Dragon Claw would work very well. If the Lapras has an ice fast attack, a Magnezone with Mirror shot works great (it's neutral damage, but it also has a chance to lower Lapras's attack).
Best Machamp Raid CountersMachamp is a fighting type Pokémon. Therefore, it is weak to Psychic, Flying, and Fairy. The best attackers to fight Machamp are Mewtwo, Alakazam, and Espeon, followed by Lugia, Moltres, and Rayquaza.
Grimer is weak to Psychic and Ground. A good strategy might be to use Landorus since he can resist both fast attacks Grimer can have. The double resistance makes this fight a breeze. Bronzong with Psychic attacks is another good pick here, as Grimer is weak to Psychic-type.
