How to Defeat 7-Star Hisuian Decidueye Raids! Guide for Best Pokemon Counters!

[@bigfootapologetics]

Also, I absolutely LOVE that Steve managed to work his beautiful new shiny Charjabug into this. Making favorites into competitive options is one of the best things about this game.

[@jackalb]

The best team builds to play with friends/Twitch chat built by Steve and the PKMNcast community!! Many thanks as always for the hours it takes to put together the raid build/pilots for us

[@PonyJammin]

I love how excited you are about Charjabug. Very excited to see your little charcoal briquet do some real star support during the raid!

[@calebklauzer3171]

That was fast! I'd always heard chargabug was useful but didn't realize just how useful.

[@nebulastarz2197]

Ooh, nice to see a channel that focuses on group raiders with 7-Stars! Some incredible Pokémon here! I’ve attempted to make some builds myself, the only difference being I’m assuming Hisuian Decidueye is more likely to have Rock Tomb or Smack Down for Fire and Flying coverage, hence why I avoided Iron Moth. My team so far is a pair build consisting of a Toxtricity and a Ampharos. Both with Plus for bonus Sp. Atk. Reflect and Magnetic Flux to buff our defense, Metal Sound to lower the Decidueye’s and then Toxic+Venoshock for massive damage. That’s the plan, anyway 😆 I’ll have to see what I can do about those potential crits though 🤔

[@BlaqueT]

So keen to build the Iron Moth and Charjabug builds! Thanks for your work, Steve!

[@PKMNcast]

Glad you like them!

[@Eranduck]

Great builds here! Charjabug was definitely not on my radar! Another thing to keep in mind, leaf blade and triple arrows both have increased chance to crit, so any offensive debuff on decidueyes side and defensive buffs on your side can fall by the wayside with an unlucky crit Edit: haha I didnt wait until Torkoal to post this. These are great, I wanna try charjabug lol

[@Diegoso01]

It's charjabuggin' time. Thanks for the builds as always Steve!

[@ElleriaZer]

Because of scrappy, I've been strongly considering a skill swap user for running with randos who bring ceruledge. It would take away decidueye's ability to hit ghosts. This is only if it doesn't have shadow claw though.

[@UltraBall23]

Yesss, time for my Teensy Iron Moth to shine!!!

[@JBSouls]

That was fast... but I knew I could count on you to bring up some interesting options - as always!

[@dpninja7152]

After mewtwo raids I vowed to never build a Pokémon before the raid drops 😂 On a serious note best raid build videos on KZbin, thanks for all the hard work that goes into these! Loved your Japan videos as well!!

[@WhirlyBeepBoops]

I must be a pretty lucky ducky to have already found a shiny Charjabug while messing around in Kitakami! Evidently, I'm taking my adorable little brick all the way. Disclaimer: No, I was not hunting for shinies. I was trying to find a second Gligar, of all things, to trade for an Aipom!

[@Nitron2097]

I'm playing the Turtle! Love Torkoal, and I've had one for 6 star raids for a while. :D

[@Charlie-zl9yx]

whats crazy is im prolly only gonna use this for false swipe on ghost types😭

[@astutheit]

Never would have thought of Chargabug. My "for fun" pokemon is Venoshock Fezandipity w/Roost, Nasty Plot & Flatter assuming it wouldn't be a special attacker. Resist all it's main moves outside Brave Bird, just need to hope someone is running a Acid Spray-er

[@PKMNcast]

Run Acid Spray over Nasty Plot

[@astutheit]

@@PKMNcast huh, for some reason I didn't see that it got Acid Spray when building mine out. Whoops!

[@EShaker20]

I'm happy that you uploaded this video! I missed this. 😁

[@PokePortalNews]

I love this. I can't wait to take my shiny Charjabug into the raid. It's one of my favorites! It's too bad the Dancer ability doesn't work in raids. It would be very fun to use an Oricorio next to 3 Fire Dancing Iron Moth's lol

[@joshua_west]

Love the BUS 🔋🐛

[@vivaviva3617]

I have an Armarouge build I think could work: Armarouge @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 HP / 126 Def / 126 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Armor Cannon - Iron Defense - Acid Spray - Clear Smog

[@PKMNcast]

Leftovers is terrible in raids, just use shell bell

[@vivaviva3617]

​​@@PKMNcastshell bell is too inconsistent for my taste. Leftovers provides consistent healing

[@Ahandle272]

If you have arceus heres a support build: Arceus-Poison @ Toxic Plate Ability: Multitype Tera Type: Poison EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 56 SpA Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Acid Spray - Sludge Bomb - Iron Defense - Recover

[@PKMNcast]

“Support”would run Reflect to help your team over Iron Defense

Thanks so much! I know these aren't designed this way but. I'm curious if the dragonite build, or the iron moth builds will be good solo?

[@TheRealHoodedGeek]

I'm just gonna bring my forretress and hope for the best out of randoms. Like with the Mewtwo aid, people tend to figure it out as time passes, and I like playing support. With Forretress, I can get reflect up and lunge decidueye's at stat

[@rossmacdaddy]

You don't think Close Combat and stat reset at the start is possible?

[@Lastedplace]

That's what i was thinking. It could go either way idk why they would, but there also is no reason to not do that

Ive been on an eviolite kick lately. Ive been using the vigoroth from before, and a spoink for a lot of raids. Ones physical, and the other special. This charjabug is gonna be just fine for me.

🙌

[@supergluehotty]

Been using the charjabug. Its funny to outlast boxart legendary randoms. HEHE.

[@shadyshyguy4058]

To be fair Ceruleedge can heal itself easily with it's signiture move, And it it also knows clear smog so it can also get rid of sword dance boosts from the raid boss. So as long as the boss does not have super effective aganis it. It could still work.

[@PKMNcast]

Did you miss the entire part where I show how that could fall apart?

[@shadyshyguy4058]

How can I tell if I ev trained to the correct stats. I know I have the 252 defense because it’s maxed out but what about the other stats. How can I tell if I reached the correct number for the iron moth hp and spa

How do you find the raid

why are you using 506 ev for torkoal instead of 510? 1pt matters =)

[@PKMNcast]

My math is correct

[@thiagorosemberg]

@@PKMNcast im not saying it's wrong. I asking why not use the last 4 since it can be 1 pt for another stat.

[@thiagorosemberg]

i just find out what was wrong, you posted 82 for SPA, but 82/4 is 20,5. So i think it was supposed to be 84, that's why it has 4evs left instead of 2

That seems right
