If they make remote raids, then that ruins the whole purpose of power dens. You have to get close enough to battle them in sword and shield, so that’s the same for Pokémon go. They won’t be adding remote raids anytime soon especially with the currency being max particles.

[@f8zd]

I did it easily with a meetup

[@trainerskulb00d]

Here's what I discovered: it is utilizing a traditional raiding mechanic. Suggest groups: 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 dps. Groups are created as you enter (and can’t be adjusted once you enter), so determine who is healing/tanking ahead of time so THAT group of 4 enters at the same time (instruct others not to enter until group 1 is done..then go to 2, etc). Suggested group of 4: 1 Metagross, 1 healer (of appropriate counter) and 2 x dps (of appropriate counter). You can view which group you’re in by clicking the group info right above the “ready” button. Healing. You only heal yourself and the people in YOUR group ONLY. As you get into the Dynamax ability screen, you will see your group at the top and what moves they're doing...if you're a healer, notice what health bars are at....everyone full, do a dps move. Tanking. Certain Pokemon are getting taunts, such as non evolved Pokemon, Falinks and Metagross. Tanks should maintain 3 shields (3 is max)..if they have 3, do a dps move. Only tanks need to shield. My Intellion used no shields, no one in the group used a shield...and he didn't take any damage for 3 meter fills (the tank took the damage). Suggestion: 3 Metagross DPS. Just DPS, let the healers heal and tanks shield. Like some feedback on this...

[@DraogonD-r2s]

That's what I'm saying. I have guard and spirit maxed out and I kept my whole team alive and full health. If they are dodging the moves as well you barely need to heal

I think its a bit hard to know how many players you actually need because everyone just seems wholly unwilling to engage with it on even a basic level, in that gmax venasaur fight there was 3 Blastoises even Brandon didn't have a pre set team ready with the necessary max moves leveled up. All this is a faux pas for normal raiding but because its dynamax its a failing of the mechanic?

Totally not 30+ able to do it with 20 (still a lot) but Brandon had his pokemon hovering around a CP of 1600.

We finally did it after 2 hours of trying with 27 people. A lot of us had to use 1M+ star dust and hundreds of candys to power up pokemons to do it. We also organized groups so every group has 2 healers and 2 attackers. This way we finally beat it.

I joined a local Community Meet from within the app led by Cirici. The two community leaders wete really well organized. We raided with 35 people but we organized 25-30 attackers (10 of those had to have maxed dynamax pokemon and moves) and the rest would be "healers" (those with less 2000 cp pokemon), we eve had people with just 1 woolo help with cheering and this worked as a strategy.

The key is you need to level up and evolve your mons. We took them down quite easily with 14 trainers. Even in this video, hes going in with 1500cp mons yes obviously its gonna be hard if you didnt power your mons up at all. All we did was power up our mons to lvl 40 and it was easy.

I don’t have time to drive two hours round trip (local Campfire groups are going to populated areas like large malls that are farther away), as well as spend half hour strategizing, the 10-15 minutes fighting only to very likely not catch one of these. This seems unreal for a mobile game. I love the lower level dynamax cause I can pop those out solo while walking or waiting in line somewhere. This sounds online MMO level. I understand this is supposed to be a slow burn but a lot of my frustration comes from the fact that when I get to the point of finally being able to have a chance at one of these, players may be done with the older releases.

I am rural so I don’t plan on wasting any resources On dmax and gmax mons. Esp bc they can only be used in dmax and gmax battles. I’ll just keep looking for regular hundos and shinies.

We were able to do this raid with only 20 people and we just used meet ups. Get them to around level 30 and with a group it's very doable. The only thing I think is scummy about this event is that Niantic limits you on how much particles you can collect from stops and 2km walks. That literally enforces us to buy particles which I think is dumb, it more so should be for convenience.

W Pokemon GO gram prawie od samego początku i muszę stwierdzić, że ten ficher z pokemonami Dynamax i Gigantamax to jedna wielka pomyłka NIANTIC. 1). Pokemony te do niczego nie są potrzebne. Nie można ich wykorzystać w PVP, ani w rajdach. Nie wchodzą do pokedeksu jako nowe pokemony. 2). Ażeby pokonać Gigantamaxa trzeba zebrać ze 30 osób. Na filmiku YT widziałem, że 27 osób nie pokonało Charizarda. :-) Te czasy już dawno minęły, że na rajd np. Tyrka przychodziło 50 osób. Teraz zebranie 5-10 osób, to szczyt możliwości chyba, że ktoś nazywa się Try lub Cushi :-) poza tym wygrany rajd nie gwarantuje złapania takiego pokemona. A jeśli ktoś już złapie, to CP jest niskie i przeważnie dziadowskie IV. 3). Ażeby wejść do lobby, to trzeba zużyć 800 MP energii, czyli można zrobić 1 rajd, albo trzeba dokupować MP za pokecoinsy lub płatne boxy. 4). Ażeby te Dynamax pokemony w rajdzie na Gigantamaxa miały jakąś wartość, to trzeba zużywać cenny stardast i XL candy na powerapowanie, wzmacnianie ataków, tarcz, życia. Nie można także wykorzystać pokemonów złapanych dużo wcześniej. To tak jakby do gry Pokemon GO dołożyli zupełnie nową grę Dynamax. 5). Ten nowy ficher powoduje, że telefon często się zawiesza i zaraz po wejściu do pokestopa MP (zapomniałem jak to ustrojstwo się nazywa) trzeba restartować grę, a to skutecznie odstrasza do wchodzenia w to "Dynamaxowe ustrojstwo". Dla mnie ten ficher to wyciskanie kasy z graczy. Z tych powodów odpuściłem sobie Dynamax i tym bardziej Gigantamax. Ciekaw jestem waszego zdania w tym temacie.

both gigantamax and dynamax raids are bullshit. Niantic have run out of things to do so they want everyone to catch every pokemon all over again in these new forms. There is never enough people to take down a gigantamax pokemon and if there is they do not have their mons powered up and moves maxed. These new raids are the biggest flop in pokemon go history. I cant be bothered to do them anymore and Im sure 80% of the player base is feeling the same. And if these gigantamax pokemon do more damage in pvp then the regular versions, Pokemon Go will lose hundreds of thousands of players.

Niantic needs to nerf these 😅😅. Here In my town we cant get 10 ppl. So we cant never get it 😂

I can’t even get a group to defeat Falinks 😭

[@bandymall7688]

Instead of pay to win maybe make things in the shop more affordable, than people might stop hating. Raids should be easy shouldn’t have to try, should be lvl 50 with out paying

[@3064light]

Tough crowd lol

[@moverscott]

unfortunately i live in a small town so getting a gmax pokemon seems out of the picture lol hopefully they get easier in the future or im able to get one via trade in the future

[@Mr_Phantom880]

Does anyone have any idea of what the shiny odds are for the Gigantimax Raids?

[@lolakan732]

When people go with the "rural players?" thing I do feel bad. Best I can say is "trade with someone or take your opportunity if you ever travel to a big city". MANY of the things already impact rural areas (people for raids, stops before someone submit them for approval, spawns). But what I truly have to say is, it was a wonderful, glorious achievement when our community got together to beat it. There was barely enough, players called old/retired players to join and we even considered a joint effort with other groups. In the end it was 1 Venosaur, 1 Charizard and 1 Blastoise done. It's the ONE game from the franchise that is centered around IRL and meeting ppl, if that's to be taken, then why make it in the first place.

as a rural player i approve of this message.

Power up your Dynamax to Level 39. Max Move, Level 2. Get 18-20 others with the same specs, and it's doable. We took down all three with 18-20 people. We struggled the most with Blastoise. It took 2 tries, but it was done. Problem is 20-25 people will show up with first evolution dynamax and expect others to carry the load. If that's the case, you're going to need 30-40 trainers.

[@BjenTheBlaster]

There is a way to defeat them! Step 1: find 30-40 other people

[@TDU2driver]

No, find 30-40 people that you know😆
