Oh i facerolled Decidueye with Arceus ages ago, I just kept doing more for the rewards since with G-Slowbro it was possible to somewhat reliably carry anyone with more than 3 braincells.
(If you never noticed, we actually have
dedicated threads in the SV section for every 7* raid where we cook up sets, often way before youtubers popularize them)
It's the actual non-event raids I'm struggling to get into. Both during the event and after it, I hardly manage to get in one every 10 as stated above, most of the time I just get the error message after clicking on it and waiting a bit. Was not happening at all with the 7° raids.
I know there is some hidden stuff where the game actually searches for a raid that matches the pokemon+tera type rather than a specific raid, so since there's always a million of the 7* raid and the type is constant, it's easy to join, but if I click a "Tera Grass Azumarill" and it fails to connect to the one that was up (due to it being full or cancelled), unless there's another Tera Grass Azumarill raid, it will eventually fail to connect completely.
