Raids tecnically cycle on their own after some hours, so in worse scenario, you just wait.
As much as I get your frustration, raids were meant to be mainly a multiplayer feature.
i understand this and i would rather they just give us better ai teammates honestly, doing them with even one other player with a real pokemon makes the fight so so much easier
i would absolutely love to do this, but i can't get more raids to spawn without clearing out all the other ones first it seems, so after a while i literally have to defeat the 5 star raids or else i can't get any more and i get stuck with an unbeatable 5 star conkeldurr or any pokemon that has a cleave attack and one shots my entire team of baby pokemon
Same problem with me. I have three remaining five stars, Cloyster, Gigalith and Galvantula that I cannot defeat and no other spawns pop up. :(
Technically its chip damage and cant escape, probably better serves for doubles and singles. That being said, Cenriskorch has a lot of health for a bug, and can easily reach 700s in HP with enough dynamax candy. Im curious whether coil white smoke or flame body would be better.
Raid mons have a sort of protection of sorts that permits you from lowering their hp too much (most seem to use 75% and 25%) so that they can put up their shield.
This is some stupidly frustrating mechanics. For all the talk about making the game less frustrating and easy to play, GF suddenly thought it's fun to put in some OP as heck mons with massive attack power that can be fired multiple times, often reset stats and actually has HP lock to prevent themselves from being harmed. Then add in stupid AI teammates as cannon fodder to just die while accomplish little.
Actual difficulty is different from being straight up ridiculous and designed to "give you a middle finger for playing alone by giving you awful teammates"
Right but the confusing part for me was a hit it for maybe 20% of its health, it then puts up its shield and it gets broken. The game then tells me that it’s defense drops two stages. I hit it with the same attack and I figure to do more damage and I might have been lucky to take out 5% of its health. It made no sense.
From what I can tell, non event gigantimax raids can only be found in specific dens, and only a 5% chance of showing up. Apparently there is a strat that allows for unlimited retries but the basic point is you need to find the right den and fill it with all the wishing stones in the world.
it's not difficult it's just frustrating and tedious
Clefairy is actually pretty decent in absorbing single target attacks that would otherwise take out a teammate (but does jack against multi target attacks, unfortunately)
There’s a free trial to begin with, so everybody take advantage of that at least
Oh you have yet to run in 5 star Obstagoon, I heard legends of it...
I don't have the games so I can't confirm, but my friends say that if you join someone else's raid online, it'll refresh everything in your own world.
Have to deny this. I've been spamraiding a lot with DHR-107 , Giratina93 and some more, and even by joining each other's raids several times in a row, our available raids stayed the same.
