Outrage Mega Rayquaza (Mega Legendary) Duo Raids, no weatherboost, Unique 6 Species Team

Mega Rayquaza has once again returned to Pokemon GO as a Raid Day Raid Boss, this time in normal Mega Legendary Raid. As shown in the video, Mega Rayquaza has less stats this time around compared to its returns in June.
Mega Rayquaza is well known as the best generalist in this game, which was also shown in past 47 videos. Although its role of generalist is slowly slipping away with even stronger specialists introduced lately, it can still do whatever you expected it to as well as being a good candy booster.
In last year, we have defeated Mega Rayquaza as no weatherboost Duo Raid with Lv40s Shadow Mamoswine aided by a Primal Reversion. Ever since then, there is no new Ice-type Pokemon introduced/buffed in the game that can challenge Shadow Mamoswine generally.
Instead, the biggest "shift" since last year is once again the introduction of a new battle mechanic - Party Power. In June, PokeBattler has allowed public access on simulation involving Party Power, where the top counters being shown were completely different from what people had expected. Of course, it does not surprise us who have read the Ice-type Party Power analysis posted right before the Elite Raid.
So, for this time around, we will show how Party Power helps in Mega Rayquaza raid, even though when the strongest Ice-type Pokemon, Shadow Mamoswine, got the shorter end of the stick from that new mechanics.
In order to spice up the challenge, we would also use a team consists of only unique species this time. And now, let us introduce the team who are taking on this challenge:
Team used:
CP 3617 Shadow Porygon-Z - Lv50 14/11/13 Lock-On/Blizzard
CP 3561 Kyurem - Lv40 15/15/13 Dragon Breath/Glaciate
CP 4739 Palkia-Origin - Lv50+1 15/15/15 Dragon Breath/Spacial Rend
CP 4287 Shadow Dragonite - Lv50 15/15/15 Dragon Breath/Draco Meteor
CP 4052 Dialga-Origin - Lv40 15/15/11 Dragon Breath/Roar Of Time
CP 6458 Mega Rayquaza - Lv50 15/15/15 Dragon Tail/Outrage
CP 3675 Shadow Porygon-Z - Lv50 15/15/13 Lock-On/Blizzard
CP 3548 Kyurem - Lv40 15/13/14 Dragon Breath/Glaciate
CP 4729 Palkia-Origin - Lv50+1 15/14/15 Dragon Breath/Spacial Rend
CP 4249 Shadow Dragonite - Lv50 15/15/11 Dragon Breath/Draco Meteor
CP 4046 Dialga-Origin - Lv40 15/11/14 Dragon Breath/Roar Of Time
CP 6458 Mega Rayquaza - Lv50 15/15/15 Dragon Tail/Outrage
If you still hold memory about the Ice-type Party Power analysis; Yes, we have picked the only two Ice-type move users which outperform Palkia-Origin under Party Power and Mega Rayquaza's Mega Boost in the analysis, then filled up the team with the remaining two members of the "Dragon Trio".
Honestly, does anyone surprised this worked? This team is effectively an upgrade to the Mega Latias Duo Raid team in terms of firepower on Mega Rayquaza and Mega Latias has 30% more defense.
While Mega Rayquaza has way lower defense, it is also true that it has way more lethal movesets against the team. Of course, that hits the team members differently, too.
Shadow Porygon-Z: With its Normal-type, it is the only Pokemon does not weak against Outrage, which allows it last longer than we would be expecting. However, its DPS is entirely reliant on Party Power, so its performance also drops way more than others if Party Power glitched.
Kyurem/Palkia-Origin: These two has very similar type matchup profile, and they both also have decent defense stats to take some super effective hits. They are mostly the more consistent version of Shadow Porygon-Z for this raid.
Shadow Dragonite: With its Shadow Boost, unfortunately, its defense is too low to fight consistently. Shadow Dragonite would need to be very lucky on Mega Rayquaza's move choices so it can reach 2nd Draco Meteor. Unfortunately, it is undoubtedly the weakest member in the team.
Dialga-Origin: The very reliable anchor to the team, with its Steel-type and high defense, it can last way longer than any other members on the team and dealing more consistent damage. Without unique species restriction, it should be the fastest way to defeat Outrage Mega Rayquaza as a Duo Raid.
Mega Rayquaza: well, it is only there to provide damage boost and avoid extra relobby.....
Overall, since most of them are 1-bar move user, their performance is still heavily impacted by how well they can utilize their energy, especially when their survival time is short. However, with their high compatibility with Party Power, there is a lot time margin to this Duo Raid. Even with Outrage, Mega Rayquaza can be defeat as Duo Raid rather comfortably, as long as the game doesn't glitched out heavily.

Thank you! One of the very few time I actually used unique species team. Great opportunity to look at each Pokemon closely and see how they performs.

[@ShellbarkGC-q7l]

Congratulations!! Amazing dodging skills. Looks like I need to power up my 96% porygon z. 😂

[@pogoraidsgameplay2527]

it is a good lead with its neutral typing and quick charging.

[@DialgaTheBest4106]

Porygon-Z fits well to the Song😂🔥
Great Duo!

[@pogoraidsgameplay2527]

It did helps in general and give me room for using more interesting team but personally I would prefer a revenge to the harder version haha.
Hopefully there is some twitter players pulled it off on the Elite Raid version no wb duo. I tried to search TH-cam but all I found were reused videos (like no revive all button), where those posted them probably don't realize it is supposed to be harder, went lazy and used last year videos.

@@DialgaTheBest4106 gg. Nice run, Party Power really helps a lot by providing a wider pool of viable Pokemons

Thanks for your thorough explanations! Great job!

[@pogoraidsgameplay2527]

Thank you!

[@samvincke8427]

This goes hard, congrats!! I must ask tho, what is the interaction between party play and your own charge moves like? I keep on seeing you both activate it right after throwing the move. It doesn't make sense to me 😅

[@pogoraidsgameplay2527]

if you activate party power separately it would cost a second, doing both in same time would save you some time.

[@Drumstix42]

Party power can apply to the charge move while it's being performed. I guess the way it works is the multiplier is applied when damage next lands, not when it's first triggered from the charge attack.
