    [PokeCommunity.com] Skeledirge 7-star raid solo

    What did you use to beat this raid in solo, if you have done it? =3

    I've been busy shiny hunting so didn't really have time to try and find something that works... was thinking a Mold Breaker Pokemon might do well as it should block Unaware from ignoring your stat changes. Ended up just following this Blissey build due to lack of time for this raid since the Quaquaval one will be up in a couple days:


    It works quite well, even if it feels a bit sluggish to get going.
     
    Just used Roaring Moon to beat Skeledirge.

    Roaring Moon
    Held Item: Scope Lens
    Tera: Normal
    Adamant, max Atk, some investment in both Def and SDef as well.
    - Earthquake
    - Throat Chop
    - Leer
    - Roost

    Kept Torch Song and Hyper Voice locked down with Throat Chop (missed it a few times, but ended up not mattering). Used Leer 2-3 times before shield. Used Roost when I needed heals. Shadow Ball does not very much before tera even though I got hit with the SDef drop. After tera none of the special attacks would work due to Throat Chop and Normal typing. Intimidate ally kept the Stomping Tantrum damage minimal so I could focus on Throat Chop, Roost, and Earthquake when possible. I don't think I ever got a crit, but staying alive was easy. After shield dropped I had to find time to do Leer twice again.
     
    Defeated Skeledirge easily with Kyogre.

    Kyogre
    Nature: Timid
    Ablitiy: Drizzle
    Tera: Water
    Item: Shell Bell
    EV's: 252 SpA, 4 Spe, 252 HP
    - Water Spout
    - Surf
    - Calm Mind
    - Rain Dance

    Use Surf until you can terastalize and then use Water Spout. Use Rain Dance when the rain stops. I recommend to reset the NPCs if they have pokémon that's weak against fire because otherwise Skeledirge spams Torch Song which makes the raid pretty much impossible.
