what's going on everyone Austin John plays here and today I'm going to be going over
the best builds for Pokemon that you could use for five six and seven star raid battles
[Music]
this is a video that I have been working on for quite a while let's just say that I teased this
a little bit during my video that I was going over the basics on how to do raids and everything
else like that I basically took all the base stat totals of all the Pokemon I ignored their lesser
of the two more powerful attack options I ignored speed and then I started assigning bonuses based
on specific moves that they can learn to come up with who's gonna be the best Pokemon to use for
raid battles uh it's Ursa Luna so it's a weird system I have a lot of things on here but let me
actually go through and just show you my results in action the name of the game is survivability
and how long you can live in some of these raid battles I have done
hundreds of raids offline enough to get six ability patches that's how many six star raids
I've done and right here are some of the builds that I've made and some of the builds that I've
used and all of them kind of have a place and allow me to explain first of all your s-tier
rank Pokemon are gonna be the ones that have a way to quickly increase their attack stat
and do an attack that would allow them to regain Health all of your ranks below that are Pokemon
who cannot do both of those things following that mentality iron hands is the best Pokemon
for raids hands down 100 I know that if I'm going into a raid if it's not a ghost type I win
that's how powerful iron hands is also if they're not doing status conditions to me I am going to
be going over some support Pokemon but first i'm focusing on solo individual Pokemon iron hands is
so good that I made sure it was the first Paradox mod that I shiny hunted I'll put out a video on
how to do that 416 with beneficial attack at level 100 bottle capped in all stats except for special
attack because I don't need it and speed because I don't need it Force Palm belly drum drain punch
wild charge wild charge is just there in case I need to terasterize into an electric type
for that additional bit of damage but then I regain my health with drain punch also belly
drum you get plus six attack in one turn for a five-star raid that opposing Pokemon has 20 times
its original HP and at a six star raid it has 25 times their original HP at level 9 90 even though
you only captured at level 75. iron hands after a belly drum and a drain punch can restore its
Health all the time with no problems whatsoever within iron hands you can take down almost any
raid no problem I'm just gonna go I'm gonna find a random six star raid alright we found a six star
grass that's gonna be neutral let's go for that I'm gonna give him his booster energy and we're
gonna head inside that is a surul edge grass type there's my booster energy that's gonna activate my
Quark drive that's going to increase my attack [Music] then I'm gonna go for a belly drum
oh I'm gonna get burned okay situations like this if you're doing Co-op it's nice to have a support
mod with you but let's see how I do with a belly drum booster Drive burn here's the drain punch
that cycle cut didn't really do a lot
okay I'd say that's like a seven eight hit KO but that Health regain I'm now back up to full that's
the important part oh it has weak armor this is gonna get spicy quickly okay that was nice when
The Shield is up you tend to not do nearly as much damage with your drain punch unless you to
rasterize to a fighting type the psycho cut is no longer super effective here's the Thunder Punch
okay about two of those in The Shield is down when they nullify stat changes to my side that
can really hurt a belly drum set when The Shield is up that time penalty is going to
hurt a little bit there now that I'm back with belly drum again and now we start drain punching
oh there's the shield the game lied to me on where the shields was and this should be for the KO
there we go I took down something that I was not very effective to with our iron hands next I want
to talk about Corydon and meridon if you have three iron hands in a group that are being sent
out one person should bring a ride on that way you can use the hard on engine and then you're gonna
be activating the electric terrain and everyone's gonna get their boost and then if they're holding
booster energy and the terrain Fades or changes then you're gonna be fine in addition to that
my ride on is great with an electric seed in that circumstance which is neat if you're using
Mirada on charge beam can increase your special attack every turn parabolic charge works just
like drain punch that you're going to be draining energy Electro drift is going to be if the move
is super effective it does double the damage so that's a 200 power if it's super effective plus
calculations plus stab plus Tara plus everything else and I don't know why I gave it power gem
so between these three moves not only can you increase your special attack every turn but you
could also drain energy and then when you need a big hit Electro drift is there because of my
ride on that's the reason I want to change my iron hands to a fighting type because this this
can build up pretty fast likewise you have pretty much the exact same thing here with karate on with
a little bit of a change I don't think he has any moves that are going to increase his actual
damage output he has Screech which is nice and you have braking swipe to lower the opponent's attack
there's no additional move that we can learn here like power-up punch would be great but it's not
in this game we have dream punch which strains Health Collision Course which does double damage
brick brick which is useful to get rid of reflect and light screen and flamethrower for no reason at
all these two come in pretty much the same level as iron hands if not just slightly under so it's
like an S minus let's talk about huge power of zoomarell huge power of zoomeryl is absolutely
broken when set up properly in a group I have a watery Zoomer rail and I have a fairy Zoomer
rail a fairy one I just used play rough and belly drumming on win the water one I use belly drum and
waterfall and I win how broken is it I decided to go in my Discord and play with some friends
last night and here we are in a Miss Maggie's raid where I used Grim snarl prankster for taunt
we use some helping hands on a Zuma reel who did belly drum and huge power and watch its Health it
does that and then it does that I have more Clips I've been doing the exact same thing but if you
have a helping hand with a zoomarell and then especially if it's helped out by a grim snarl
or a per soccer for support it's a one-hit win however because the zoom real doesn't have any way
to regain Health he is at a disadvantage compared to Pokemon like iron hands with drain punch in
that same Essence skeletarch falls into that same category that he has torch song which increases
his special attack every turn but no way to regain health so now you're relying on other Pokemon
to heal you up or cheers so rule edge with sword stance is kinda helpful because it can kinda sorta
do that so you can use sword stance two or three times to regain and then you use bitter blade for
some big damage which is neat if you have those three turns to get off those three sword stances
and then you can blow past the shield then you win because unlike sword and shield there is no cap at
that damage marker if you do 30 times Health then you win let's talk about some support Pokemon we
have gastrodon over here with storm drain which is very helpful if the opponent has some powerful
water type attacks and I gave him earth power water pulse sludge bomb and also clear smog to
get rid of their stat changes can be very helpful can help out a team pretty easily Grim snarl with
prankster it doesn't even need to be level 100 you do taunt to get rid of any sort of Pokemon
who wants to do taunt against you or confuse Ray or yawn or if they're going to be doing buffing
moves so helpful give him light scream Swagger if they're a special attacker or what's the other one
flatter if they're a physical attacker and torment so they can't use the same move two turns in a row
you can eventually avoid most damage daily Spirit Berserker I found her Circle to be more helpful as
a support mod for other Pokemon but if you have four people who all have an ability patched per
soccer then yes it can be helpful what's the build I read up on the build I didn't want to do the
build the chance of four people beating 100 raids at one to one odds for an ability patch for you
to have per soccer it's a little bit ridiculous attacking HP you have to hold a metal coat has
to have Steely spirit and then you want to taunt cheer Ironhead everyone else does Screech attack
up and Helping Hands and then on turn three you win well with turn two is Zuma real huge power
we win so there you go once we're at the point that we're in the post game and everyone has the
same Pokemon cool but also if it has a fire or a fighting attack you're not gonna live past the
first turn and your speed isn't that great so you may not get off the taunt that's where Grim snarl
comes in okay I've put them in a more organized order as sort of uh the rankings here S rank iron
hands him a ride on and then a rank are gonna be Pokemon who have a way to heal up and maybe
a way to increase a stat that includes the rule edge with bitter blade and sword stance Slither
wing with leech life and bulk up you also have Morning Sun on there we have brute Bonnet with
Giga drain and then he's also just really great karate on with drain punch and collision course
but he doesn't have a way to boost his attack so he can heal up but he does better damage than then
the Pokemon who just have a way to heal up which are down below then you have your belly drummers
without a way to recover health that include a Zoomer reel and said Titan really wants the Titan
to work I just haven't found a good way to get him to work without a lot of support because that
belly drum takes half his health and ice is not good defensively and then we come to Pokemon that
has an attacking move that can also increase that same stat being electross with charge beam woe
chin has just a fantastic recoverer if watching is on the field it won't die no matter what and
with grassy terrain it can actually help out your teammates a little bit so that's nice to have on
there skeleton urge torch song we talked about him I'm sure you're familiar and then we come
down to the bottom list that I thought were gonna be a lot better like Bax caliber I haven't gotten
it to work well also I made a grave mistake in thinking that Glade Rush made my next attack
do double damage but no it makes the opponent's next attack do double damage to me tinkerton I
love her she was during my playthrough she doesn't have the stats to keep up he can
tank okay you know she has some okay defense but as far as damage output she's outclassed
however she's the only fairy on here which is cool unless you have a fairy azumarelp she
she is actually a pretty awesome special fire type with lava plume overheat willow wisp ruination
is useless against these by the way it only does half of health of one of those 20 or 25 segments
Moon Knight he works he's a good special fighting type he's immune to Willow Wisp reduction but he's
outclassed by several others honestly I built up this King Gambit but I've just never used it
I've just never used it when it came to Steel I think I just usually pick something else
because most things that steel are super effective against I could just use fighting instead actually
I struggle on dark a little bit oh no for dark I have some rule Edge over here who's ghost and then
I also have great Tusk down here who is my ground type and he pretty much never sees the daylight
I have my three support Pokemon that I use whenever I'm doing Co-op there's there's
the per circuit strategy but honestly these two iron hands I'm gonna ride on
some of the best the best in my opinion I found gimme gold to be pretty useful against Pokemon
that are gonna constantly try to do statuses to you because of good as gold I have still
gotten status conditions I think it's because of secondary effects of moves like blizzard can
freeze you stuff like that but you're immune to like Willow Wisp and confused right in addition
also know that Misty terrain can prevent statuses of everyone including preventing the
confusion as a result of outrage so that could be useful if you're trying to support a dragon
Golden Goat is useful if you're trying to do a solo raid and they have lots of status conditions
because your teammates always focus on status conditions they're always going to be paralyzed
or burned or poisoned hex is gonna be useful nasty plot to give you plus six after three turns and
Make It Rain only reduces it by one turn you're gonna have to use PP UPS on him that's probably
the worst part of it I still have my golden go built up for regular playthrough I would have to
go ahead and get rid of all my speed effort values and give him HP I mean he could take down a five
star no problem when it comes to six star it's a little bit more rough any of the Pokemon that I've
shown you today can take down a five star so now that I'm up plus six in special attack if I were
to go for hex even though he doesn't have a status condition probably do some really good damage
yep some really good damage so because he has a way to get plus six he falls into the second
row looking back at the chart who are some other reputable ones galorean Slowking when he comes
over he's gonna be great Ursuline is gonna be absolutely broken in the same way that iron
hands is but better actually I messed up on the code consistency between iron hands and Ursa Luna
with the consistent calculation between the two because they both have drain punch and belly drum
iron hands's adjusted based hat total is 11.84 and ursuluna is 11.45 so ursuluna comes in just
below iron hands especially for the drain punch not being stabbed Ursaring but it's normal type
so it's not the most useful to be honest with you it only gets belly drum I did build up a Slowbro
build with drain punch and belly drum but is a taxed out of 95 just Falls so short so quickly
maybe if I had a terrifying type but at that point why not just use a fighting type zangoose
is also on here but he's normal and then we have a Zuma real greedunt who's normal at this point I'm
really going into the same type attack bonus plus Terra bonus in addition to all the prankster stuff
that Grim snarl has he has survivability with both drain punch and draining kiss so there's a
chance he's never gonna die on the field he might actually be a good fairy Choice special attacking
Grim snarl prankster set up screens you're not gonna die I have ice Q on here but there's nothing
that ice cube can do that's a Titan can't do better I also have Volcarona on here Volcarona has
Giga train leech life and it has fiery dance which increases your special attack I need to
look that up 50 chance to increase special attack uh both Volcarona and past future Volcarona one of
them also gets that Charizard is gonna be amazing Charizard also gets belly drum and then between
that solar power you can do some good work on there all of the future form Pokemon also get
charge beam in the case of flutter Maine the past type misdreavus ghost fairy it gets both charge
beam to increase its special attack and draining case so if you're a big mischievous fan that may
be an option for you iron Valiant use fairy and fighting pretty darn frail but you get charge beam
and you get drain punch so you can increase your special attack or you can attack with
your physical attack it's not optimal that's the reason it's lower on here and someone falling
into the exact same thing will be belly bolt it gets charged beam to raise special attack
and it gets strain punch off a physical attack and then we get down to Pokemon who just not as good
as other options uh when really boom comes over he's gonna be amazing our believer is going to
be good as his support to keep people healed up it has Giga train but honestly wojin is just better
at that I'm pretty sure I said the right one I don't know I haven't messed around with Sylveon
or florges Sylveon went set up right with pixelate and hyper voice can be very handy we have curbinal
muck passimian hatterine Appleton and then surul Edge no he did get bonuses that's how low he is
that's my chart on here oh no Slowbro and slow King their their attack stat is so bad while
they can't do damage they also don't die so that's the reason they're so high up on the list it's all
about survivability because the more times you die the faster your bar goes down well there you
go there's half a box of Pokemon they're gonna just destroy five-star raids by yourself some
support mods some things that literally can't die and some ones that I thought would be better at
