indigi posted:raids suck poo poo. Input interruptions are really annoying and you're guaranteed 2 per raid, any scripted action resets the cursor position so if you're trying to spam an attack quickly it can change your input, every animation is 50% too long. I’m just doing stuff I can solo from now on Yeah raids are frustrating. UX could use some modernisation in general in this game.

It took me 25 minutes to find a shiny Sandy Shocks for my brother for Christmas and then the game decided to gift me a shiny Scream Tail free of charge I'm naming it Scornament

Man, so I'm trying to fight a 6 star bug type Hydreigon and it is not going well. A raid 'mon with Taunt disrupts all the meta builds (which I love) but people do not seem to know what to do about that. My survivability is fine but because people aren't bringing any sort of healing (and refusing to cheer I guess?) the timer is getting run down too fast due to fainting PittTheElder fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Dec 24, 2022 |

If they've got a shell bell, a type advantage, and the boss doesn't do 50%+ of their health per hit, they're pretty good. Problem is people thinking there's a one-size-fits-all mon and getting super owned by bad matchups.

it's both nice but also frustrating that there's no fish button this gen, should be a handful of mons you can lean on depending on type matchups but even iron hands gets regularly owned. I was winning maybe one of every five or six 6*s I was able to join

The only issue is people bring them to EVERYTHING, even stuff that will just kill them before they can attack. Also Play Rough makes the boss HP bar do wonky things.

Is there some reason more people aren't using Annihilape? I haven't bothered doing raids online, but having just started solo raids it's managed to take out (some) 6 star raids pretty handily. Rage Fist's power up (apparently) doesn't get reset when you get knocked out. It also learns bulk up, drain fist, and screech for a bunch of setup you probably only want to bother with if you're doing it solo, and even then I've had the AI chip damage reset buffs/debuffs before I was done setting up. But in any case Rage Fist seems like a pretty good move since it's a power up that can't be reset, and Annihilape is fairly bulky and physically powerful.

Doesn't know Belly Drum so you can't feel like a hero for one shotting the boss on turn 2. But yeah Annihilape rules. Just a shame the AI understands to avoid proc'ing Defiant

I spent most of last night losing to a 6 star normal tera Vaporeon that had Yawn. I tried Taunting with Annihilape but I couldn’t use Rage Fist and I would get reset before getting it all the way down. I also used Electric Terrain Iron Hands and still couldn’t set up and stay awake long enough to bring it down. During one match an AI Arboliva kept changing my Terrain and making me fall asleep again. I need to train up a few different Raid battlers. It’s mostly those two and a Azumarril

Xander B Coolridge posted:Raid power sandwiches give better rewards for raids Pokémon of that type Interesting! I'm going to have look into that. I've been herba mystica farming so I'm reluctant to use the herbs to punch up the sandwiches too much though. As it stands I have a fairly decent haul and since I prefer masuda method as my main way of shiny collection I might just reserve them for making egg power sandwiches instead.

I had one guy though who knew what he was doing and hosted with a magikarp. Took a six star ditto down in two turns. Ditto raids don't need to be hard but that's a difficult concept for some people I guess.

Annihilape is currently the sixth most used Pokémon on Pikalytics because it's so good. Every team has it, murkrow, chomp, or hydreigon on it. Gholdengo is the number one most used because yes, it has this game's fish button in Make it Rain Xander B Coolridge fucked around with this message at 05:07 on Dec 25, 2022 |

Do the attack/defend cheers raise stats in a special way or is it just a 1-stage increase for all? I usually stick to defending/healing cheers cos I assume many people will bring attack buffs with their builds anyway.

I usually stick to defending/healing cheers cos I assume many people will bring attack buffs with their builds anyway. Attack cheers are very situational. I tend to use them if we need to hit hard and fast early on with the expectation they'll get swept away once the shield goes up. But it's also possible to slog through getting the shield up and then start spamming attack cheers, usually has to do with how well the raid is going.

They're a 1.5x boost to the respective stats. This stacks with buffs and debuffs. The cheers are permanent and are only dispelled upon the raid mon clearing buffs. In solo raids, you can actually apply the stat cheers twice, in which the bonus goes up to 2x. In group raids they can only be applied once.
