Honestly the issue with this is that your AI team often deal too much damage at the start messing up the set up. Once the tera shields are up this strategy falls apart. I recommend focusing on nasty plot first then lowering defence to reduce the damage your AI partners can do.
this. better to set up nasty plot first. i had a group where an AI drifblim was chunking it when i was setting up metal sound
Just get 4 people doing the same strategy
@@Cursedluckycat well thats obvious, but the point of this video is doing it solo, so this was a suggestion for doing it solo
Wouldn't it be bad to set up nasty plot first cuz you have a higher chance at dying in the beginning of the set up process?
@Aayawn shouldn't be much of a problem unless you're facing a fire type or anything with EQ really. The problem with setting up metal sound first in a few cases is you run the risk of any npcs who are special attackers procing its shield. If it's shield is up before you set up and attack it, it's kind of rip. Not saying plot first is always good, just to adapt to the raid and your npcs
I have an ironic story.
I made this, and was excited to face my first 6 star raid. I found my first 6 star raid, and it was a Ditto.
Ditto had Imposter. Sending Gholdengo in would be suicide.
I looked through who I had left in my storage since I cleaned it out, and found my Lv1 Magikarp which only knew Splash. I sent it in. Ditto transformed into Magikarp.
An NPC one-shot the Ditto, and now I have a Jolly Ditto with 5 perfect IV's.
It felt so surreal that a Lv1 Magikarp beat a Lv75 Ditto.
Okay, using a level 1 Magikarp against an Imposter Ditto is actually genius. I might have to get a level 1 Magikarp to do this myself
joined in a 6 star ditto raid. the person who set it up brought in their own ditto, so the only thing it could do was try and use transform over and over again
story is bullcrap btw the npcs cant 1 shot a raid magikarp go try it for yourself in solo ditto raid bring your own magikarp the npcs barely take off even a slight pixel of health, yes it transforms to a useless magikarp with splash but it maintains the stats and difficulty of a lvl 6 raid still (i tried this around 20 time with lvl 6 ditto before i gave up and used online for group)
@@FSUincRS ur probably level 20
@@frye. i completed the dex and rest of game in 46 hrs and have more shiny lvl 100s than you've seen in your wettest dreams quit acting like this game is hard lol. i was stating the facts so ppl didnt go and waste there time trying this dumbasses make believe story
Great that you gave the original poster his credit. Not everyone will do that. He deserved all his recognition. I seen the original video already but going to watch this one fully. 💪💪💪
Cringe that the video isn't linked in the desc though.
@@concreteriver8023 agreed, blaines should at least link the vid :/
@@risxng didn't credit the original person who came up with perrserker strategy either.
@@risxng he literally showed the channel in the video if your too lazy to type the channel name in the search bar that’s a YOU problem
@@user-zz8qw6ps1c didnt ask
equip shell bell. once set up, steel beam will do enough damage to fully restore lost hp with shell bell recovery. I tested it
Should I use metal coat or shell?
Thank you for being honest and saying you won’t win them all and showing us you doing a raid where you have a disadvantage because gengar has super effective moves
If he doesn't people will use to crap on him like everything else. Heck he's probably still going to get hate from this
@@pandax5359 Honestly, you are not wrong lol. People will find ways to hate on you more even if there is no legit reason to hate you.
Letting people know beforehand just calms down the few that didn't already hate him without reason :O
For those looking for the Steel Beam TM, that cave actually has a Tera Pawmo in it. If you can't find it, go to Serebii and look for the Tera Pawmo location and the TM is right next to it. Be awre if your level is low, the cave entrance is small and a lot of Dugtrio and Gabite block the exit when I was trying to leave... so either use the Flying Taxi or bring strong enough Pokemon to fight them.
For the EV's if your pokemon isn't level 100 you can just put a power lens on your Gholdengo when farming Chanseys, so you get HP EVs from Chansey and special atk EVs from the power lens. It's a good and cheaper alternative.
How many chansey should i auto battle?
@@akaeka you don’t auto battle, the iv’s&ev’s wouldn’t train to that mon. You have to manual battle
@@lightninbleu1598 Oh my thats gonna take long x) anyone has ability patch to give for free? I just need 1
@@akaeka If you get one, could you dupe it and hmu? I'd love to get one too.
Can’t I just use a bottle caps for the whole iv/ev situation ps I don’t understand iv/ev 😅
My biggest issue with the tera raids is the terrible time meter thing plus the people who just join raids to show off shiny or think their legendary is going to one shot things and then dies first lol
I soloed my past 2 raids with screech koraidon. Another thing I found is that dropping defence first might cause the ai to pop a shield so would recommend nasty plotting first
Damn this seems really good cant wait to try it when im done with the game! Plus considering ive been playing this game with my friend, imagine how faster and more effective this strat can be with two of this mons. One setting up the attack at the same time as the other lowers the defenses.
Also, I found that for battles where you need a little more power to ohko it can help to take a turn or two to cheer for an attack boost and let the npcs do a little more chip damage in the beginning.
I definitely recommend using the Power items and just doing EV training manually. It takes like 20 minutes and it saves you like 500k+, which is still kind of a lot. In fact, you can do 5 or 6 Pokemon at the same time, which can be a 5-6x savings. Use your money on bottle caps, mints and battle items instead. You can kill the Psyducks along the river near the lighthouse at the beginning of the game for Special attack and kill the slowpokes and marills on that Island in the North-West of the map for HP. It's not even remotely as tedious as it was in past games. It's very fast and no RNG from random battles like before.
Does this also work with auto battles?
@@xXxYOUxXxTUBERxXx No, but that's actually a good thing because you can use auto-battles to clear out pokemon that are hostile that don't provide the EVs you want.
I'm new to EV training, how do you know when you've battled enough psyducks and marill/slowpokes? Do you just move on to regular leveling after that?
@@CottontailCavalier Use the Power item to increase the amount of EVs you get on each Pokemon in your party that you want to train. Try to train 5 at a time. Then kill 23 pokemon that give the same EV, ignoring the others. You can go into the summary screen and check the graph to see if they are maxed or not, but 23 is usually the right number. It could be less, but usually 23.
HP - Slowpoke, Marill, Azuremarill on the NW Island Location
Special Attack - Psydock along the river near the lighthouse at the beginning of the game
Attack - Croagunk, Toxicroak, Flamigo, Chewtle, Drednaw on the NW Island location
Special Defense - Goomy, Sliggoo, Swablu, Altaria on the NW Island location
I never needed to train defense or speed, so I never bothered to memorize them but I'm sure you can look them up.
@@Katie-hb8iq Best spot for speed is outside the players house in the water. Buizill, magikarp, and wingull are the only spawns down there.
This is great. I was about to evolve my Gimmighoul today and was becoming so frustrated with failing raids online. Lol
Same
ong some hosts are absolutely braindead
It only works on some of them tho. You'll see.
I love battling against a 6 star ghost type with 3 braindead koraidons

Small correction. the chests don't respawn every day. they have a 5% respawn chance per day. it's the individual coins that are every day.
Nah its 50 persent
For coins
The chests respawn way more often than that.
I am going insane i used a high level to evolve into ghoedengo and there is no tm for metal sound and it has to be learned at a low level
@@theboys9968 According to serebii it should be available via remember move.
Another easier but more grindier method is to use ceruledge, miraidon or koraidon with metronome held item. Make sure you have the tera type fire, electric and fighting plus the move bitter blade, parabolic charge and drain punch respectively. You can start with a boost or weakening move first then just spam the life steal moves, you will eventually grind the 6 star out
Do you know what evs to focus on Miraidon obviously sp attack and what else
@@davo1924 i actually put on HP just so that it can take more hits
@@earllsh7030 thanks been looking for this
Where do you get the metronome held item
@@davo1924 the deli bird shops
I’ve been trying this but I’m having massive issues with moves missing as steel beam and metal sound both don’t have 100 accuracy, the Pokémon putting up the shield due to ai damage before I’ve got it going and the worst which is the raid Pokémon nullifying stat changes (which I assume gets rid of the changes made by nasty plot and metal sound) to either itself or me before I’ve finished the setup. So far I haven’t been able to beat a single raid with this method
I'm haveing the same issue too
I’m glad you gave credit. Dude found this strat
I’ve been running iron hands with belly drum and booster. Having this in combination would be nuts.
It’s not fool proof, but this definitely is ideal for going at it solo imo.
Just be smart about what dens you’re entering! If it’s something that can hit you for Super Effective, you should probably avoid.
A fair warning to those trying this, I ran into a Garganacl raid and it had Clear Body meaning that the Metal Sound would not work on it at all. So Pokemon with Clear Body can muck up attempts with this strat itself. 100% have alternatives for sure, though this is an excellent means to wreck through a lot of raids if you are looking to farm money, etc. for sure!
Just so you know you can literally just buy bottle caps from any delibird presents store just like you can buy the mints from any chansey supply store. The bottle caps would be in the general goods sections of the delibird presents.
The Dowmside to npcs is they wait until you respawn to attack
I'm still in disbelief that nobody is talking about how broken shell bell is for raids, the bosses have tons of health so you basically full heal everytime you attack
Edit: Comment section hates having fun so forget my advice it's basically worthless
ill try it out
Hmm you may be onto something
I've tried Shell Bell myself and while it does heal a lot if you do damage but at times when you aren't doing enough damage (When the shield is up) the healing is very miniscule and not enough to keep you alive so I rather opted for just full glass cannon with Choice items
@@szrin use metronome over choice items. Waaaay more effective and stops you from being shutdown by disable
shell bell is bs
A cool alternative move to metal sound is shadow ball especially with the nasty plot set ups it can do a lot of damage well setting up for steel beam
Iron Hands with Belly Drum and Drain punch is an excellent alternative. Being that Iron Hands has the highest attack stat in the game, you can make an Iron Hands that has 501 HP and 415 Attack at level 100 and absolutely blow through raids without a lot of resistance. This does struggle against Pokémon that have psychic or fairy type moves, but everything else is pretty easy.
what do you do when the raid mon resets boosts when using belly drum strat, i feel like they always do it to me
ha was thinking this same thing and your comment confirms the suspicion ty for your comment!
@@reishiyu7911 That's not such a big problem actually ^^ Drain Punch heals you up to full HP and most of the time you don't get much damage to get killed. To be honest I did not clear many 6 star raids until now but two times I already tried it on 5 star raids and it worked pretty well.
And if you ATK boost gets cleared then just get it again :D
I’ve been doing this with max iv/ev iron hands but sometimes its a miss with some bulky pokemon and like 70% of the raid mons have play rough or some fairy shit
Azumarill has similar to better attack and can be used the same way on good mathup
Dang what good timing! I just evolved my gimmighoul too, hehe now to use this god pokemon against the 6 star raids. Thanks for this!
Hey bro could you please help out with this Pokemon?
@@joshmisik what Pokémon?
The one that's in this video bro lol
@@joshmisik oh, my bad lol. Well sure, how can I help?
@@unknown84 help with this Pokemon bro
Blaine’s I have one question what happens when your in the middle of doing the nasty plot and metal sound when the Pokémon gets rid of all effects.
i have noticed that in a solo battle the npc’s wont attack while you’re dead, but besides that this is an incredible strat
You explained this so easy to understand. Most people dont mention how many Pokémon per stat to KO in EV training or Vitamin amount to buy. Liked and subbed.
Finally, I don’t need friends to grind 6 star, thank you!
@@Ninjarobix good point
@@Ninjarobix tru
Thank god for this video. The damn Perserrker raid channel in the discord was giving me an aneurysm 😅.
That tech looks pretty good but how good is it vs steel resistences?
Strat doesn't really work well whatsoever. Definitely clears 5 star raids extremely well, but I've found that the enemy clears Stat boosts before you can get the attack off 9/10 times or the AI will do too much damage and the shield will go up and ruins this Strat completely.
2:13 It's not always the best idea to max out every IV. It can even be a detriment sometimes. For physical attackers, you can typically forgo maxing Special Attack, and for special attackers you can forgo maxing Attack.
This is especially important for Special Attackers because some of the raid pokemon carry a move called Foul Play, which does more damage to your pokemon the higher your pokemons' physical attack stat.
It also just saves you some bottle caps. Why bother maxing a stat on a pokemon if they won't ever use it, y'know?
Another easy Solo 6* by Alex Mef here on youtube: Iron Hands with Booster Energy, Drain Punch, Belly Drum, and then two other moves of your choice, he recommends ice punch and thunder punch for coverage/funsies.
Go into the fight, belly drum, then drain punch them to death. You can pretty much sustain through most anything. This is a good complement to Gholdengo as a pair of phys/special 6* killers.
Fun (and late) fact! I was reading through a lot of comments, and noticed a lot of people talking about their ability randomly not working anymore. The reason for this is almost certainly: When the Tera Pokemon uses its thing that "nullifies stat changes *and abilities* affecting your team", it makes your ability useless as well as having undone all your stat changes. That's also why you might notice your Azumarill falling off mid-battle. Feels a bit cheap, but then again so are some abilities like Gholdengo's.
Went up against a 6 star Dragonite with flying tera type... he buffed using dragon dance 3 times before I could get off the 3rd metal sound to lower his defense and 1 shot me everytime. Other raids he's been great but you can't solo every raid though.
I kept telling people Gholdengo was overpowered in raids xD
This strategy is awesome. thank you I got my first 6-star raid done with ease
Can you reset and defeat a Reid again to try for salty HM in rewards or are rewards determined already?
For me this doesnt work consistently. Whenever im done setting up Nasty Plot 3 times and then Metal Sound 3x before i can use Hex/Steelbeam its purging either my Buffs or his Debuffs and when i apply them again its not Paralyzed etc anymore. Iron Hands after Belly Drum never seems to do enough damage that it matters. What works consistently Solo for me on the right opponents is my 100 Koraidon with Supertraining 252 Atk / 252 Spd holding Metronome with Sword dance and drain punch or supertrained 100 Miraidon with Choice Specs 252 SpA/252 Spd and Signature Move. Koraidon vs Normal, Stone, Steel, Ice, Dark and Miraidon vs Water and Flying
This is great. I think the game says that when the shield goes up, you could tera your own mon and itll break it
u can terra after 3 successful attacks by u
Never heard of these until you make ‘em and they are already one of my favorites 😅
Literally just unlocked six star dens when you uploaded this video
I solo 6 star raids with my Iron Valiant.

@@ThaaReazon Alright! Have a good one! Thanks!
Where do you find Iron Valiant? I have violet

Awesome strat, finished setting up my Golden Kamuy of sorts.
So is there no time lock in changing console time like in Sword/Shield? It's the only concern I have for trying the moving forward a day cheese
There's a problem when it comes to 5/6-star raids against a Ditto. Ditto will immediately transform into the Host's Pokémon (and if that's Gholdengo, you're group is pretty much TOAST), but there's a strategy to get around that easily. Simply have the Host enter the raid with a low level Pokémon (any kind with terrible stats), and the Ditto will automatically transform into that Pokémon. After that, the rest of the group can OBLITERATE the transformed Ditto in a few short turns!
This is exactly why I keep an eevee with the only move being tail whip as the ditto only has the hosts move. I as well have an electrode with only self destruction but haven't tested it yet but would be hilarious if it works. Or any mon with memento only would be pretty funny but I have not tested the fainting moves tail whip only min 100% works on ditto though with only players to knock him out.
@@BI-dw8uz a
Magikarp with only splash beats it
Another method, if you got violet, is to do the 6 star raids solo with miraidon.
You can reset the 6 star raids via changing the switchs date. You just keep doing that until it becomes either a flying or water type raid. Then u can solo the raids with Miraidon. The Miraidon build is 252 EVs on SpAttack and Speed, 6 EVs on HP. You need its signature electric move and just max SpAttack, Speed and HP IVs. Last thing is to give it Choice Specs, which boosts its SpAttack but only allows one move usage. With elec terain, miraidons ability and the secondary effect of the signature move you can easiy beat every flying and water type raid with Miraidon.
How many vitamins = 252 evs
@@elpoke7485 each vitamin is 10 so 26, but you could save 20k by beating just 2 random olives that give Sp.Att EVs
@@henrique_212 and beating one Dugtrio in front of Zapapico for the 2 Speed IV's
Does the raid reset if you change the date back to normal or will it be what it was before?
You're better off taking HP EVs if you want just a tera raid Miraidon. 135 base means you're going to outspeed basically everything and the extra hp keeps you alive
I’ve been trying this strategy on a ground Tera type Goodra and it just doesn’t work. I have to use recover way too often to get the 3 metal sounds and 3 nasty plots off before it puts its shield up and I can use steel beam. What am I doing wrong!?
This is the reason why I am a paid subscriber to the channel. Ever since I joined years ago he has helped me so damn much in these Pokémon games with the giveaways, tips and tricks and EVERYTHING.
After ur done can you change the date back to the current date and if so does it affect anything
Also if you need a physical attacker, use Iron Hands. Belly drum, drain punch, close combat are the 3 good moves. I just one shot a 6 star neutrally
Every time I try to do that with iron hands it only does half, activates shields, then dies.
@@aquavgc7546 Might be the other pokemon moves, have you also put ev on its hp and atk? I did a 6 star and failed cause it's main moves were fairy, I'd recommend doing ones that aren't super effective agaisnt it, or sends you to sleep
@@aquavgc7546 if you have things that use yawn or sleep stuff. Try it with Annihilape also
Another thing that might help is making sure its tera type is steel. Tera-ing into its own type gives you a 2.25 stab rather than the usual 1.5 so this is useful when they bring their shield up, to break it down faster. Especially if you have no stat boosts due to fainting. Plus I'm pretty sure you do more damage to the shield when you terastilize, although I could be wrong about that, but that's what the game implies at least.
Edit - okay apparently it's actually 2x. I got confused bc a lot of people thought it was 2.25x initially. Still stands though!
For that you still need to farm 50 steel shards but i agree
@@muffin1587 Yeah, I think as of right now the best way to farm em is the clone glitch. It's still going to take a bit cus you need 50, so maybe ~1-2 hours? That's not that bad and you're gonna be spending a lot of time on this gholdengo anyway so might as well go all out!
@@Blitzbrie so you can change a pokemons tera type with 50 shards of the tera type u want? i didnt even know that
It's X2 not 2.25
It only raises the STAB to 2x instead of 1.5x At least if the ingame classes dont lie to you lol
Any downfall to time skipping? Does his tera type have to be ghost or steel or does it matter?
Should I train it up In battles or doesn't it matter once I use the hp up n calcium n hyper training ?
I'm so glad Gholdengo is relevant, it's my new favorite Pokemon. It's such a dumb, yet unique Pokemon and I've been loving nuking raids with it. If you're on the fence about investing, I can say it is worth the investment.
I wasn't all the rage about it at 1st (basically a Chandy w/o the Fire typing) *but* then I saw it learns Recover and before that i found it's actually faster than Chandelure.
So yea - I started collecting all the Coins just like that Girl did in the Trailer. 😂🤣
It's a shame soloing is going to be the preferred method... Again. I think the timer punishment is too hefty for online play as some raids will spam boosts and ohko everyone constantly. You lose a chunk of timer and have a spawn delay.
Yesterday I tried solo'ing 6 star raids (with belly drums iron hands) and was quite surprised that it was easier than playing online with 3 kids that don't know what to do
Are you locked out if you set your date and time back to the correct one after setting it forward over and over for new 6* raids?
Gholdengo is strong af, his moveset is perfect for solo'ing raids and his typing and ability is as good as it gets
The ability is a boon, cause some raids spam status and it gets annoying
Need Gholdengo's ability on feh fr
Gholdengo for most raids and iron hands for high special defensive pokemon
Which raid types are easy for Gholdengo and Iron hands?
@@JoshingX gholdengo is pretty a exchange for iron hands if the opponent is ghost type or has stronger super effective moves on iron hands
So is nasty plot worthwhile or would it be better to cheer so the computers have their attacks raised too?
Any tips on taking on really tanky or mons that spam status moves?
steal beam is great but the chunk of HP you lose makes it a lot more inconsistant for clearing things youre not super effective against, i think make it rain is a better option, its 120 dmg and will one shot just as well against things that are weak to steel, it will also give you a better chance against things that you arent though since youre not losing 50% hp per damn turn
Yeah I can see that, but steel beam is designed to OHKO it. Make it rain may do alot, but now you gotta deal with the shield
@@goldenghost2001 he literally had to deal with a shield in this video anyways... and he was using steal beam
@@brilyman yes, it could have been it's defenses. Every raid is different. I'm not saying urs doesn't work, it just has more risk because of less damage
@@goldenghost2001 no it doesnt though... it has less risk because youre not throwing HALF of your hp away every time you do it for literally 30 more dmg on a move, in the long run you will die less and be forced out of raids less because the more deaths you have in solo raids the more time you lose... this is good for the less chunky mons, but once they wipe your stat changes and youre at half hp, you havbe to recover set upo again and if it has a fire move you will die OVER AND OVER just because you are trying to set up. and spoiler alert ALOT of the 6* dens have fire moves.
@@brilyman if you one shot it then you dont need to care about health, like I said every raid is different. Just bring both
I am trying this since two days and let me just say: it only works in less than 50% of raids. Because after 3 Nasty Plots and 3 Metal Sounds the enemy is ALWAYS so weakened that it puts up its shield and recovers all status changes so you have to start again and hope you have enough time left.
Not to mention you can usually get hit multiple times during the setup and die before you do anything
More like a 30%
This absolutely looks like a strat you need to be flexible with. If you have special attacking AI, you use Nasty Plot first so they don't bust the shield. Another killer is 6-star raids with Taunt, absolutely ruins it cause you'll only get 1 Nasty Plot or Metal Sound and can't use recover.
I've seen the system setting use before but never had the long term ramification of using it explained. Does changing the date effect our saves? am i able to go back to the proper date afterwards? Does going back change anything?
Thank you for the video on this, it's been really helpful!
So: going out on a limb here, but arguably if you're not worried about rushing, wouldn't it be better to use Flash Cannon over steel beam? Yeah, 140 base power is great, but if you figure you're having to spend every other turn using recover, it's arguably more efficient to use Flash Cannon (80 power) twice, than to use Steel Beam (140 Power) once. Not to mention using more flash cannons is also a higher net chance of critical hits.
i think the issue is flash cannon well allow the raid boss to get a shield up, whereas steel beam should blow right through it more often than not
An even better alternative is to use Gholdengo's signature move if you're less worried about doing immediate damage, since Make it Rain is a 120 base power move which is still stronger than Flash Cannon, but also doesn't have the drawback of Steel Beam's recoil.
So glad I finished the grind for this guy before I finished the game asap, my favourtism for this pokemon PAYED OFF HAHA!
Haha nice pun considering he's the most expensive pokemon in the game needing that much coins😆
golden cheesestring man superiority
I leveled my gholdengo up to 80 from 50 without using him in battle to much, did I mess up the ev training, and if so is it fixable? I bought the 26 hp ups and was saving for the calciums while leveling him up and it only let's me use 4 of the hp ups.
Hi Blaines, May I know if this Ghouldengo also works for 7-star raids?
Definitely helps to change the Gimmighouls tera type to steel to aswell to deal with shields, however it may be quite tedious farming 50 steel tera shards.
You can change a Pokemon's tera type? How does one do this?
@@LordDraz The restaurant in Medali (where the field for the gym is / where you complete the gym challenge) you can order soups to change type at the counter (the chef at the kitchen)
Awesome! Thanks so much :)
@@LordDraz note that this needs 50 Tera shards for that type. The main source of these is from higher difficulty raids of that tera type
If you use the shell Item that restores HP based on DMG dealt then you wouldnt need to use Recover.
True but then the steel beam wouldnt be as effective without the metal coat
Yes but then the damage input wouldn't be as good with Metal Coat which arguably is more important since the steel move that's used only has 5 PP
is there any downside to changing the time? like, can I change it back after and still get different raids with normal gameplay?
I've been doing this with various pokemon while countering types and defenses as well
wouldn't make it rain technically be slightly better? it doesn't have recoil, still is 120 base power and only lowers Sp-Atk by 1 stage.
I'd prefer staying alive more reliably and just redo a nasty plot every 2 attacks
Literally watching that vid as you posted this
Same

If I advance time forward 1 day, then decide after a few times I want to set it back to the current date. Will I be able to without any issues? Or will it cause problems with the next normal time advancements because I've already done those "days?"
Nice was just gonna see your last video on this
There is better way to solo all the raids. Miraidon with Parabolic Charge, Koraidon with Drain Punch, or few other with drain move.
Any of them holding Metronome as item
And just spam that move. You will have full hp all the time
ill check ty
@@BLAINES There is few pokemon like that you can use. With enough different types of drain moves to cover a lot. Like electric/fighting from legendaries, or fire with Ceruledge
nice i might try this i have 2 switches with both the mons.
@@BLAINES what about ceruledge with sword dance and bitter blade? I’ve found it to be pretty op and wanted your thoughts
@Gajeel Which stats did you EV train?
Sp Attack and Speed like a special sweeper i guess?
I like to hear which Pokemon is going to be best against Charizard when that raid comes out next month. Plz make a video on that so we all can be prepared we know Charizard is gonna be one tough Pokemon to beat if we want to capture it.
Drain kiss gardevoir using a metronome should deal with it pretty easily. can setup screens if your scared first
Since the event Charizard would be Dragon tera type, I'm training a Azumarill maxing its HP and Attack with huge power and you can teach her belly drum. Fairy tera to further boost its play rough dmg.
Im building up my shiny azumarill, its thick skin halves fire type moves, and its fairy moves are super effective against dragon. Im also running a fairy move that halves the power of dragon moves by 50% and prevents status condition of grounded pokemon, cant remember its name
Theres also dachbun, whose ability prevents fire moves, and it's a tank god. Not sure if it'd put out enough damage to work though
Don't Expect this strategy to work 100% of the time, built one of those gholdengo's up and found 3 6 stars that it couldnt handle in a row before winning on the 4th pokemon
I think you can do these with any hard hitting pokemon equipping it a clear amulet?
I like playing six star raids with my husband. We have loved pokemon since 1998. Helping Hand is my favorite move to use to support his big hitting moves. It's always a fun time together.
This is like the most wholesome thing ever written.
just one thing DO NOT bottle cap the attack stat on the gholdengo, you will want that stat as low as possible
Why?
You can't get confused anyway cause of his ability wdym lol. Unless you're worried about 30% confusion on 70% accurate hurricanes on 1% of the raids? Just seems like paranoia to me. It's a waste to use a b cap, but it doesn't really matter if you do
@@wildstorm3486 foul play
@@SantosOverlord awe that makes perfect sense.
Just solo'd my first 6-star raid with this golden boi, thanks much for the tip!
Does the date and time skip work for the gimmighoul chests?
by respawn every day do you mean the chests? also do you mean they respawn in real time or in game time? if its in game time. how long is a day?
awesome works a treat getting through them so much easier now
Are the raid dens locked to a date? So for example. I put the date on the 1.1.23 and then a date up to the second of January’s. Will I get new dens if I got back to the 1.1. or will they be the same as before
I recommend Iron Hands or similar too. Works perfectly fine., There are many variants that clear this stuff. Hex also deals great damage as another optional ability
Nice, I was looking for a new pokemon to move to my raid box for ones like amoongus and vaporeon because depending on the type I can't seem to get it with iron hands or even annhilape. Like I think bug and poison. Trying to farm herba to shiny hunt.
How is this compared to the Iron Hands setup? He heals and damages at the same time with Drain Punch, but the damage output is lower.
For time skipping, u need to change your console time ahead 1 day plus 1 minute, to ensure you actually get a full 24 hours time difference. Just 1 second less than 24 hours and the skip won't work.
Trying to set up according to the video and the tera pokemon just removes all negative effects from itself after the 3rd turn which makes it impossible... so annoying.
I did had two runs successfully but 90% of the raids are just impossible.
Does iron hands work well I’ve seen a lot of people using it in public raid they use belly drum and draining punch
Is there a negative effect in the game if you turn the time back after you change it forward?
