The new tera 7-star raid was announced; Blaziken with Flying tera type. What is everyone planning to try for the raid?
I was thinking of trying Slowbro again, since it resists both Blaze Kick and Acrobatics (or Brave Bird) and did well against Cinderace. I imagine Blaziken will Bulk Up at least once during the raid (hopefully not spamming it like Cinderance did). Planning to steal Speed Boost on T1 and then use Iron Defense, and hopefully rack up stats quick for Stored Power. Not wanting to use Oblivious or Own Tempo, since that would prevent NPC Pokémon from being able to Intimidate. Blaziken covers any Rock or Ice types that are good against Flying type with it's Blaze Kick and Acrobatics, so I see a lot of people online talking about Electric and Dragon types to be good against it. Could possibly see a physically defensive Salamence working. I have some other ideas as well (Bellibolt or Qwilfish), but these seem like a good start for non-legendary.
