Hi All!
Nintendo Direct just announced a new Spinoff game called Pokemon Pokopia!
I'll get the trailers into this thread when they have been released separately.
Looks like a reskinned Dragonquest Builders, but looks extremely cute!
I dropped in with standard support Blissey with two raids and it does the job. Basically immortal Vs Wo Chien.
Blissey @ Light Clay
Life Dew
Light Screen
Helping Hand
Sunny Day
First raid I had a suicidal Koraidon Flare Blitzing constantly (along side Ice Punch Hands and Entei), second raid...
Time to Add some more Pokemon to the confirmed list!
Houndour (Houndoom already confirmed)
Scizor (Was speculated as it has a Mega)
Dratini, Dragonair, Dragonite (Mega Dragonite)
Arbok
Machoke
Watchog (Patrat already confirmed)
Gourgeist (Pumpkaboo)
Tyranitar (Larvitar already confirmed + Mega)...
I also found this raid surprisingly hard in opposition to lots of people here.
Attempted with a few different mons before going back to the old reliable; Bronzong.
Tried with my specially defensive support Gyarados, but Boomburst even with good spcl def still absolutely hurts at +1. You keep...
Cleared with Orthworm like others have said.
Bax actually triggered Earth Eater a number of times which was interesting.
Orthworm @ Rocky Helmet
Tera Steel
252hp/252Def
Iron Defence
Body Press
Coil
Iron Tail
This did take me a few times. Friday evening I just put the console down after...
Cleared with support Blissey.
Threw up Light Screen, spammed Life Dew alongside an Iron Hands, Hisuain Decid (who wasn't that good) and an Annihilape.
Got burnt once from Tri Attack, but wasn't anything we couldn't recover from. Took away Analytic with Skill Swap too. No offensive presence...
Locking this until we get further information regarding either game.
I am aware of the leaks that are happening, and you can join Orange Islands Discord to talk about them.
So this raid was a bit of a shitshow in all fairness. Early barrier gave a bit of leeway, but the Swords Dances later on nearly always made the raid go sideways very quickly. Most of my early attempts failed before even breaking the barrier, even with reasonable? comps.
This one probably took...
I also had this bug happen while I was playing yesterday - Ended up having to force close the game and restart. It was weird.
I honestly lost track of how many attempts I tried for this raid (Some logs from #OI at the bottom).
Tried Bronzong a few times, went to Orthworm a few times, but man...
I am actually using a Rotom-A in a Platinum game right now. [For full clearance, along side Roselia/Staraptor/Empoleon/Machoke/Mothim - Currently grinding in Iron Island with Riley to gain some levels. Currently 40~ish]
I don't think there is much to worry about regarding the security of it...
Ended up beating this second time after an extremely close first try.
Decided to try something a bit different with a support Gyarados build. Built in Intimidate, decent special bulk and an EQ immunity. Chilling Water was the attack of choice, with max special bulk due to Tera Blast Flying...
As Volt-Ikazuchi has returned, I'll reopen the other thread and close this one. If you wish to compile anything from here and move it across by all means do so.

This one took me three tries. Didn't realise I did not post this woops.
Went with Torterra as that seemed the most logical choice, good base Def, Shell Armour to stop the pesky crits.
Just ran with
Shell Bell 100hp/100att/200def EVs or something
Crunch
Curse
Leech Seed
Earthquake (but...
Brought out the Bronzong again for this raid.
Iron Defence
Body Press
Sunny Day
Reflect (later swapped to TR)
I did not realise the duck had Brick Break so was kinda surprised it used it immediately on the Reflect, my bad for not actually looking at the movepool! Still cleared first time with...
This is effectively what I ended up running earlier, but also with Skill Swap instead of Body Slam.
Took me two attempts, first one was with someone else taking Blissey, so I swapped over to Azumarill assuming they would be... actually good (We also had a good Kyogre/Palkia Origin) so I...
I think you just die to get your own ability back anyway, that's what Malamar usually does regardless. Get the Skill Swap off, die, and then proceed to use your own ability for your own benefit.
Contrary would always work against Skeledirge anyway.
