Huh! Well if anyone would get the 7* treatment among the paradoxes these two makes sense.

Bit surprised we're doing them before finishing up all the pseudos though. Guess they want the mega-likes to be around in the lead up to Z-A
 
Hm, was hoping that these would still be 5* raids so that they could be shiny. Well, at least with the rest of the paradoxes available I can try to get shiny iron treads, which I missed the first time around.
 
Good to see renewing NSO briefly came with good timing because now I can dread trying to get the Roaring Moon clear with randos before moving on to try getting shiny Scarlet Paradoxes of the 5* raids. Welp, I better get ready renewing my Beast/Dream Ball stashes for this.
 
:Roaring-Moon:

I'm expecting Roaring Moon to have the moveset of Dragon Claw, Crunch, Iron Head and either Earthquake or Acrobatics for coverage. Sunny Day and Dragon Dance are likely to be included as the scripted moves.

Magearna with Draining Kiss and Iron Defense should be able to handle the solo for this. It can also use Snowscape to remove the Sun boost from Roaring Moon.

:Iron-Valiant:

Iron Valiant has such a diverse movepool of options on both physical and special side that predicting its set is going to be very difficult. Electric Terrain as a scripted move would make sense but beyond that we could see almost anything.

I could see Gholdendo, Klefki or many of the Acid Spray using Poison types useful here but it all depends on the coverage moves. Psychic and Fire Punch could certainly be likely choices so that Poison and Steel types wouldn't be as safe as you might think.
 
Really wish they'd just do cross-game appearances given the Paradoxes aren't 1-and-done Mons anyway. As is, I'll probably get like 1 of each for a High IV specimen and then not bother much outside maybe someone announcing they found a Shiny to share around

Eh being nothing special, I usually just get one for the sake of collecting the Mighty Marks, but that's about it.

No real benefit in grinding those.
 
Magearna could probably work for both bosses. Draining Kiss won't be super effective against Val, but its low SpDef should make up for it. Tera Fairy might actually be the play for Val because of that. Can Iron Defense and/or CM to withstand the mixed attacking storm.

:cloyster:
Cloyster @ Covert Cloak
Ability: Shell Armor
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Chilling Water
- Helping Hand / Iron Defense
- Life Dew
- Snowscape

I probably won't be grinding this raid, either, but if I had to pick a randoms support for Roaring Moon, Cloyster might be it. Sky-high Defense, Shell Armor to prevent crits, Chilling Water to lower Attack, Life Dew to heal the party, and Snowscape to not only turn Protosynthesis off, but to boost your Defense by 50% while Snow is active. Iron Defense could be used to further boost your Defense, but Chilling Water + Snow should be enough, and imo Helping Hand is the less selfish option.
