Heads up. The adamant Annihilape (with Shell Bell) with the moves Rage Fist, Bulk Up, Taunt, and Focus Energy (Ghost Tera with the Defiant ability, of course) works decently, as well. I had max Attack and HP (probably better to have max Defense instead of HP, but I just used an Annihilape that I had already made for general raiding just to see if it could be done). I tested it a few times and it works. You might fail early on if you get bad RNG, but just try again. If all you want to do is catch the Sceptile and not farm it, this Annihilape set isn't a bad build to use.
If going online, you can just bring a physically bulky Pokémon that knows Clear Smog and literally just spam that move. This significantly increases your party’s survivability. Sceptile isn’t that physically strong to begin with. Me personally, I brought a Torkoal with Clear Smog, Iron Defense, Body Press (Fighting Tera type), and Inferno (for the 100% burn chance). If your team has a damage dealer, just spam Clear Smog. Otherwise, you can use Iron Defense and Tera-Fighting Body Press to deal reasonable damage.
I did. I probably should have changed to White Smoke (to prevent stat drops from Breaking Swipe). Even with this moveset, I lost multiple times. I got lucky having an Annihilape on my online team spamming Rage Fist.
Fairy Tera Magearna holding a Cover Cloak (for thunder punch) worked just fine. Iron Defense after stat reset, soul heart will max special attack by itself, use draining kiss until shield break. Then use her unique move to one shot him.
I used a Sinistcha with Iron Defense, Matcha Gatcha, Calm Mind and Hex. It never fainted when I used it against Sceptile. It had Max Hp and Defense and was holding leftovers.
Corviknight tera fighting with body press, iron defense, taunt ,roost. Can beat Sceptile even with bad rgn with the thunder punch paralyze (beat it first tried but almost ran out of time cause bad rng paralyze)
Austin John: Gives view on Sceptile's move-set. Sceptile during raid Dragon Dancing 6 times: Uh huh, this my s--t! All the mons stomp your feet like this!
I tried azumarill with zap zipper but the thunderpunch was too much. Moved to farigjira with zap sipper with faerie tera, trick room, powr swap, and it went a bit better online for suppprting.
Here is a support set Alolan Ninetales Don't remember the nature it is the one that raises defense but lowers attack 252 Defense 252 HP 4 Sp Attack Ability Snow warning Moves Disable Aurora Vail Ice Beam Blizzard
Fun fact the reason why Sceptile has the Dragon Tera type is because he is base grass type and the reason he has dragon Tera is because mega Sceptile is grass and dragon type.
So I noticed that each time I try to play this, the game has crashed, and this has happened to me 3 tines today(yes, I did a system update last week). I've used celfairy and annihilape so far and I'm at a loss.
I really hoped you'd have a Build that *wasn't Pay-to-Win,* since Clefable requires either Pokémon HOME or the Expansion Pass to aquire... Sceptile's Cheating, too! I was using a Weakness Policy Sap Sipper Azumarill, and eventually dropped it to -6 ATK with Charm before it got the Shield Up - it then removed its Stat Debuffs, used Dragon Dance, and displayed a message saying it already had Maximum ATK and SPD! I checked, and sure enough, it was at +6 ATK and SPD, and it One-Shot me Every Turn afterwards!
IMPORTANT! You need to upgrade PP’s for Draining Kiss from its default 10PP to 16PP, you see in the video afterwards when he’s battling that it changed but wasn’t mentioned, if you won’t upgrade you will run out of power and lose.
After you use protect, use 2 calm minds, then just hit draining kiss till the end. He got a lucky crit on first leaf blade, basically killed me, only reset I needed.
It's baffling to me that it's a special attacker at all. I get that that was better for it's typing pre-physical/special split but it never once gave me the vibes of a special attacker.
Sceptile had focus blast, hidden power and leaf storm. It’s a shame it never got nasty plot, air slash or earth power. It’s physical coverage is far greater than its special coverage.
@@jmaldonado790 It’s because Swampert was made into the physical attacker of the trio and Blaziken as the mixed attacker due to the physical/special split. Sceptile, not having a physical STAB, was easier to make into a special attacker.
@@KingRumar If only the tera water mightiest pikachu came first (you dont know how many times I have lost tera water pikachu raids because ppl used electric moves and gave it +4 attack)
Here was the build I used because it worked pretty well for me. Grimmsnarl, 252 HP and Attack, Prankster Ability, Adamant Nature. Moves: Taunt, Reflect, Bulk Up, and Play Rough. Held Item: Shell Bell. Turn 1, Taunt Turn 2, Reflect Turn 3, Play Rough until he resets stats Turn 4, after he does the reset start using Bulk Up After enough Bulk ups/ Play Roughs, Tera Fairy for more Play Rough damage.
@@ManMan31994 Part of that is on me, I forgot to mention this build is geared towards Multiplayer over Singleplayer. I find that 3-5 is usually enough.
I used Magearna, thanks to soul heart. Every time an npc gets knocked out, Magearna gets a special attack boost Moves Draining kiss Iron Defense Reflect Protect Max HP Max Special Attack 4 Defense Bold nature Metronome item Ability Soul Heart
That Malamar set looks cool. I succeeded using Magearna. Max HP and Def; Bold Nature; Draining Kiss, Iron Defense, Metal Sound; Fairy Feather; have an AI partner with Intimidate for extra safety. Draining Kiss three times; Tera Fairy and use Metal Sound; Sceptile will reset stats; Iron Defense up to +6, mixing in Draining Kiss as needed; spam Draining Kiss until win.
Just beat it using your build, I almost sold cus I forgot to Increase draining kiss's pp but luckily forgot to remove aurora beam from its moveset And thanks btw for this build
@@cwallos fairy feather is the item, but if you don't have it then pixie plate is a good alternative, or if you dont have that either then an expert belt
I used my Annihilape from last raid, I just swapped out rain dance for Taunt and taunted turn 1. Then I bulked up after the stat reset and I used focus energy after I healed to full from shell bell and Tera'd.
Confirmed. This one works well. Annihilape is GOAT. Got it on my second try. Would have done it in one if it hadn't been for Sceptile getting a perfectly timed crit. Didn't use focus energy. Used drain punch for better early regen. Taunted twice turn one and again when it wore off. Bulked up a few times after the reset and drain punched to fill health as needed. He didn't dragon dance until halfway through the timer. By then I was already defense buffed, terastalized and then unleashed rage fist for massive damage and that was that. Had a tauros first round and bellibolt second round, both were very helpful with intimidate and paralysis. Defiant ability eats up breaking swipe. Sceptile's turn 1 leaf storm nerfs its own attack when it can't dragon dance due to taunt.
@@kawaki1207 Just make sure to use Taunt first. Ability should be Defiant because of Breaking Swipe. And I made the fourth move Drain Punch for recovery. Tera Type Ghost for Rage Fist, and made it hold Metronome. The rest is fairly easy to figure out.
Clefable 252 Def/ 252 Spa/ 6 Hp Ability: Unaware Moves: Protect, Calm Mind, Draining Kiss, Alluring Voice Held Item: Expert Belt Alluring Voice turn 1, which will confuse Sceptile since it will most likely use Dragon Dance. Draining Kiss in general to get Hp back. Use Protect when ability is negated. Terastalize when or after using Protect. Alternate between Calm Mind and Draining Kiss, mostly in fear of Leaf Blade landing a crit, then alternate between Draining Kiss and Alluring Voice. Could switch Alluring Voice for Moonblast for more power, but the confusion from Alluring Voice can use the Dragon Dance boosts against it
I find Alluring Voice is ineffective at actually getting the Sceptile to hurt itself in confusion. I would rather use Draining Kiss 3x to keep our HP intact. Then Tera Fairy Reflect -> Protect -> Calm Mind until ready -> spam Draining Kiss.
I’ve used Skeledirge with fairy Tera. 252 defense/252 Special Attack/4 hp Alluring voice Protect Slack off Torch song Torch song 3 times, protect, torch song 6 times and Tera with alluring voice.
i dont see these as things to should do anymore. instead i think these are just hints of whats to come... like the hisuian events hinting about pokemon bank. you can grind for these pokemon in the dlc so why do these?
This raid feels as difficult as the Mewtwo raid since Sceptile and Mewtwo both have a status move that allows them to power themselves up in an attempt to KO you or your allies.
I used a Hisuian Goodra as well, but with Sap Sipper and Tera fairy. Used chilling water to keep lowering it's attack. No one was ko'd partially due to the Pokémon of choice as well. There was a Fairy Plate Arceus, a Sylveon, and Orgin Form Dialga. Finished with maybe 60 percent of time remaining.
Oh thank you so much dude because I had quite a day but knowing that I had a Clefable with Bold nature AND unaware Hidden Ability, in Pokémon HOME, this entire time, that someone gave me quite a while ago from the Alola Games, is actually gonna be useful so thank you so much for suggesting this because now I’m gonna use the very Pokémon that you just use your territory battle for me and anyone anyone else has benefit that’s this as well, including myself.
@xerzac My ign name is Diego, and no, I used Magearna for a solo build, I tried Azumaril online with an Arceus Hisuin Goodra and Flutter Mane, sorry pal I think you got the wrong person
@xerzac It's fine. I only hosted. I haven't joined any. Also, Magearna only really works for solo build as when the npc faint, you get a stat buff thanks to soul heart ❤️ Like Austin said, Clefable, with the ability unaware, is best for online
Mine's a Physical Unaware Clefable with ShellBell Max Attack Stat and Defense Stat; Play Rough, Cosmic Power, Moonlight, Psych Up,...Trick is to do Cosmic Power + Play Rough until Sceptile will nullify your buff, then do a Psych Up to copy its Stats Boost (this should be before it procs the shield), then cosmic power again to raise def, then you can do the rest with play rough until you Tera, moonlight is just for Coverage in case it crits with leaf blade
I have no problem playing boring, McBain the Clefable finally has meaning again! Malamar did work for me solo, but it was a super close call at first since i didn't adjust his tera but Squidward done me proud regardless.
Unaware Skelledirge (Fairy) @ Shell Bell 252 SpAtk 252 HP 4 Def Modest Mud Slap (TM) Torch Song Alluring Voice (TM) Slack Off (Egg Move) Mud Slap until reset our stats, then Torch Song until x6 SpAtk Up, Tera and Alluring Voice until beat it down
I used Zacian (If u have one) and was able to solo Sceptile on my 1st attempt with around 1/3 of time left Impish nature Item: shell bell Tera: Fairy Evs 252 Hp/ 252 Def/ 6 Atk Moveset: Swords Dance Play Rough' (Max PP to 16) Iron Defense Protect
I hate when people do it sooo....easy. but the time I do it...I fail. Sooo...annoying asf. This time I'm tryna do my Clefable. But my ability isn't Unaware...that MIGHT be why idk...
I have a Kingambit set that works extremely well solo! EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Defense, 4 HP Nature: Impish (or Adamant) Ability: Defiant Item: Shell Bell Tera: Steel Moves: Swords Dance, Iron Defense, Iron Head, last move is completely up to you. I ran Kowtow Cleave for more coverage
My successful attempt with getting Sceptile was with my Whimsicott. The moves I brought in were Taunt, Tailwind, Moonblast and Charm. I managed to stall it by using Taunt and lowering the heck out of its Attack with Charm.
Do you have any tips or Pokémon that would work for someone who has no money or BP to set up in new Pokémon on either violet or Scarlett? I must have about 120 Pokémon (2 boxes of 30 per game) for competitive and raid play but not sure what I could use, my go to is my shiny annihalpe with rage fist, drain punch, screech and bulk up holding a shell bell
Skill swap malomar will carry if you have people bringing random stuff. If you have people debuffing like crazy then alcremie is a good choice. For unaware mons Clefable os good, but Skeledirge and Dondozo work as well. If you built an umbreon it could be a debuffer, but it's hard to get through.
I used hisuian goodra with sap sipper and fairy terra. 252 in hp and sp.atk modest, then start of with 3 acid spray terra emideatly then shelter until plus 6 def then terra blast until he resets stats then 3 acid spray then terra blast until win
I can't used my Miraidon which Pokemon I can used to defeat Sceptile I level up my Miraidon but Sceptile defeat me in Tera Raid Battle so then I need Clefable to defeat Sceptile okay know I get it just used Draining Kiss so I will get Sceptile.
As of Sceptile, there are 7 starters available without the mightiest mark: Feraligatr Torterra Infernape Incineroar Meowscarada Skeledirge Quaquaval And the only type unused currently is dark.
Last three were water, fire, grass starters, they will probably save the Paldea starters for last, and incineroar is infamous in competitive so will probably be the odd one out between the other two fire types and get a special highlight, and skeledirge will be a nightmare due to torch song buffs and they'll have just done another fire type before hand so it will probably send that trio out with a bang. They'll probably put in another paradox event or something like that before the paldea trio. There will probably be a big event after that since all the starters will be done and it will have been two years post launch, probably legendaries. So my guess for the order is: Feraligatr Infernape Torterra Incineroar Special Event (iron valiant/roaring moon?) Quaquaval Meowscarada Sekeledirge Special Event (legendaries?)
Didn't have a Clefable so I used my Enamorus with fairy terra type from Legends Arceus with basically the same moveset except instead of protect I used iron defense.
I was going to go after this Sceptile (as it's one of my favorite's), then i remembered. I had to get rid of my Nintendo Switch Online memberships, so that I can mostly afford my bills, damn it.
It never spawned for me I've beaten the base and post game and both DLC and im up to date with the poke news from mystery gift but the darn mightiest mark never spawned
Honestly I still haven’t gotten the dlc for my scarlet copy because of the problem where my save file may get corrupted if I download it. So can anyone please let me know if that problem is fixed or whether or not my save file will be okay if I get the dlc
"He doesn't have that good of move set"

Calm mind not bagon mind lol

What Austin forgot to mention in the video is you need PP up
Fun fact the reason why Sceptile has the Dragon Tera type is because he is base grass type and the reason he has dragon Tera is because mega Sceptile is grass and dragon type.
How about using Malamar with the move topsy turvy? "devilish smile"
So we all assumed a special attacker. When saw the lead storm out the gate, i already realized this was an L lol
First try: die to thunder punch paralyze after protect.
Second try: die to leaf blade crit after reflect
Third try: die to turn 1 leaf blade crit. Can't salvage attempt.
Fourth try: game completely bugs out, Sceptile goes off script and I can't tera.
This is the least consistent strat man.
What does a Mightiest Mark do? Does it make the Pokemon stronger, or is it just a collectible thing? And is it visible on the Pokemon?
Love the videos 😊
Contrary malamar does help the average group you get online survive a lot better on this one
So I noticed that each time I try to play this, the game has crashed, and this has happened to me 3 tines today(yes, I did a system update last week). I've used celfairy and annihilape so far and I'm at a loss.

it's just because they have an exclusive mark, plus you do get to catch them in any pokeball you like without a chance of it breaking out
This raid feels as difficult as the Mewtwo raid since Sceptile and Mewtwo both have a status move that allows them to power themselves up in an attempt to KO you or your allies.
This raid is actually very easy in comparison. Mewtwo is almost impossible to do solo, and even then you need the right RNG.

Oh thank you so much dude because I had quite a day but knowing that I had a Clefable with Bold nature AND unaware Hidden Ability, in Pokémon HOME, this entire time, that someone gave me quite a while ago from the Alola Games, is actually gonna be useful so thank you so much for suggesting this because now I’m gonna use the very Pokémon that you just use your territory battle for me and anyone anyone else has benefit that’s this as well, including myself.

Me too. I only learned how to pronounce it properly about four years ago.
Of course they had to give it Thunderpunch, otherwise Hisuian Goodra eats it....
Welcome to the war room
I used Magearna sir
@@RodimusMinor1987 were you in my one online raid that didn't go well?
@xerzac
My ign name is Diego, and no, I used Magearna for a solo build, I tried Azumaril online with an Arceus Hisuin Goodra and Flutter Mane, sorry pal I think you got the wrong person
@RodimusMinor1987 ok the whole reason I asked was I had some one with a magearna in my raid
@xerzac
It's fine. I only hosted. I haven't joined any. Also, Magearna only really works for solo build as when the npc faint, you get a stat buff thanks to soul heart ❤️
Like Austin said, Clefable, with the ability unaware, is best for online
Mine's a Physical Unaware Clefable with ShellBell Max Attack Stat and Defense Stat; Play Rough, Cosmic Power, Moonlight, Psych Up,...Trick is to do Cosmic Power + Play Rough until Sceptile will nullify your buff, then do a Psych Up to copy its Stats Boost (this should be before it procs the shield), then cosmic power again to raise def, then you can do the rest with play rough until you Tera, moonlight is just for Coverage in case it crits with leaf blade
I use Fairy Skeliderge with Torch Song and Alluring Voice, Max HP and Special Attack. Works well but not as good as the Clefable
I just wanna ask is it a bug when you can't lower its attack?
I have no problem playing boring, McBain the Clefable finally has meaning again!
Malamar did work for me solo, but it was a super close call at first since i didn't adjust his tera but Squidward done me proud regardless.
Unaware Skelledirge (Fairy) @ Shell Bell
252 SpAtk 252 HP 4 Def
Modest
Mud Slap (TM)
Torch Song
Alluring Voice (TM)
Slack Off (Egg Move)
Mud Slap until reset our stats, then Torch Song until x6 SpAtk Up, Tera and Alluring Voice until beat it down
I used Magearna.
I used Zacian (If u have one) and was able to solo Sceptile on my 1st attempt with around 1/3 of time left
Impish nature
Item: shell bell
Tera: Fairy
Evs 252 Hp/ 252 Def/ 6 Atk
Moveset:
Swords Dance
Play Rough' (Max PP to 16)
Iron Defense
Protect
I hate when people do it sooo....easy. but the time I do it...I fail. Sooo...annoying asf. This time I'm tryna do my Clefable. But my ability isn't Unaware...that MIGHT be why idk...
I have a Kingambit set that works extremely well solo!
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Defense, 4 HP
Nature: Impish (or Adamant)
Ability: Defiant
Item: Shell Bell
Tera: Steel
Moves: Swords Dance, Iron Defense, Iron Head, last move is completely up to you. I ran Kowtow Cleave for more coverage
My successful attempt with getting Sceptile was with my Whimsicott. The moves I brought in were Taunt, Tailwind, Moonblast and Charm. I managed to stall it by using Taunt and lowering the heck out of its Attack with Charm.
Me: "Perfect, a foolproof strategy, there is no way I can..."
Sophie the NPC: "My Arboliva's seed sower heals everyone and boosts grass moves!"
Do you have any tips or Pokémon that would work for someone who has no money or BP to set up in new Pokémon on either violet or Scarlett? I must have about 120 Pokémon (2 boxes of 30 per game) for competitive and raid play but not sure what I could use, my go to is my shiny annihalpe with rage fist, drain punch, screech and bulk up holding a shell bell
Skill swap malomar will carry if you have people bringing random stuff. If you have people debuffing like crazy then alcremie is a good choice. For unaware mons Clefable os good, but Skeledirge and Dondozo work as well. If you built an umbreon it could be a debuffer, but it's hard to get through.
I used hisuian goodra with sap sipper and fairy terra. 252 in hp and sp.atk modest, then start of with 3 acid spray terra emideatly then shelter until plus 6 def then terra blast until he resets stats then 3 acid spray then terra blast until win
I can't used my Miraidon which Pokemon I can used to defeat Sceptile I level up my Miraidon but Sceptile defeat me in Tera Raid Battle so then I need Clefable to defeat Sceptile okay know I get it just used Draining Kiss so I will get Sceptile.
A Modest Clefable with
252 HP, 148 SpA, 76 Def will have the same stats AND leave you with 32 spare EVs
Dang 3 views in 20 secs?!? Bro fell off
Sceptile Keeps Taking Me Out With 2 Hits, I Am Trying To Get This Done And NOPE Not Happening LoL
As of Sceptile, there are 7 starters available without the mightiest mark:
Feraligatr
Torterra
Infernape
Incineroar
Meowscarada
Skeledirge
Quaquaval
And the only type unused currently is dark.
Probably Dark Feraligatr if any of them get that type.
Last three were water, fire, grass starters, they will probably save the Paldea starters for last, and incineroar is infamous in competitive so will probably be the odd one out between the other two fire types and get a special highlight, and skeledirge will be a nightmare due to torch song buffs and they'll have just done another fire type before hand so it will probably send that trio out with a bang. They'll probably put in another paradox event or something like that before the paldea trio. There will probably be a big event after that since all the starters will be done and it will have been two years post launch, probably legendaries. So my guess for the order is:
Feraligatr
Infernape
Torterra
Incineroar
Special Event (iron valiant/roaring moon?)
Quaquaval
Meowscarada
Sekeledirge
Special Event (legendaries?)
Didn't have a Clefable so I used my Enamorus with fairy terra type from Legends Arceus with basically the same moveset except instead of protect I used iron defense.
I was going to go after this Sceptile (as it's one of my favorite's), then i remembered. I had to get rid of my Nintendo Switch Online memberships, so that I can mostly afford my bills, damn it.
It never spawned for me I've beaten the base and post game and both DLC and im up to date with the poke news from mystery gift but the darn mightiest mark never spawned
What’s your favorite video from this channel? I’m looking for recommendations!
Easy raid with clefable
Honestly I still haven’t gotten the dlc for my scarlet copy because of the problem where my save file may get corrupted if I download it. So can anyone please let me know if that problem is fixed or whether or not my save file will be okay if I get the dlc
Another full proof plan brought to you by Austin John plays everyone! First try, first catch 💪🏼
