I couldn't find a Raid Battle FAQ thread so if there is one, I'm sorry.
So I'm battling Gigamax Butterfree (finally caught it after a few tries-- trying to catch all the Gigamax Pokemon in Pokeballs, it's a pain in the butt but it's a fun challenge) I'm just wondering about how this stuff works.
I have a level 100 Lapras, the computer trainers have a Maractus and a Throh and a Clefairy or whatever and they're all level 70. Maractus lets off a Sucker Punch and it does a really decent amount of damage to the Gigamax Pokemon. Here comes by Dynamaxed Lapras' Ice Beam Max Hailstorm and... and... it barely does anything. The shields aren't up yet. Super effective against Butterfree, Stab Ice attack from a Level 100, perfect IV, max Special Attack EVs Modest Lapras and it does far less than a level 70 Maractus Sucker Punch. Also, I know Butterfree does Quiver Dance but it didn't use it once during the battle.
So then we knock it's shields down and it's exposed to an attack and it says the Butterfree's Defense and Special Defense falls. I hit it with another Max Hailstorm and it does even less than before. What's going on with this stuff?
