A friend and I duo'd a Raikou last weekend with more than half of the time remaining. Im thinking this trick will make it solo-able and ill definitely be trying it out for myself!
If you received a pic from Stephen of a solo Raikou then yes that would be me! I did it in sunny using mostly Primal Groudon, two shadow Groudon and a bit of Therian Landorus. You need to try it next!!
Cool. Maybe I'll actually try shadow raids. I tried it when they first came out (3*) and blew through my gems and didn't beat it. Maybe I can try it again.
I used this strat accidentally 2 weeks ago and beat it with one sec I couldn’t believe I did and it was trash and got tossed immediatly didn’t realize we couldn’t solo it without that strategy and I def didn’t know when I joined my raid with 5 min left
Very cool...as a mostly rural player what's tour advice on getting shards quicker...for a solo playwr...I'm sitting on about 40 million stardust so just waiting for the right time to strike
Mannn I’m sick that shadow raids are solo… literally just found out about the extended range for playmaking in normal raids (campfire app, I know I’m late…) But I saw that raikou and got so excited… walked over to host one for some peeps since I was out of remote raid passes… Open up campfire, click host… aaaand it’s gone. Thought it might have been glitched, tried some troubleshooting for a min… then just… 💔
When doing this trick after using the first 5 gems do I leave then rejoin straight away to get the next 5 gems to become available or am I able to heal my pokemon before I rejoin ?
While this is useful, shadow marowak can be duo’d without using any gems. My wife and I do these with no problem. No dodging, just face tanking. I’m lvl 47 and she is lvl 41. I think I have two Groupons that are over lvl 40 as well as two shadows at 40 exactly. So, not exactly a world-beater lvl team. Hers are not even close to that. You will obviously lose some pokemon, but revives and potions are much easier to come by than gems. We have never had to even relobby.
I didn't realize the difference between normal players and pro players until I saw five fused and maxed Necrozma.
Not pro, just pure whale.

this is HUGE
Bro, you had me dying with the " it really works, man!" haha 😂😂 you were shocked for sure.
Even though I wish I saw this yesterday in time to get the Marowak, just glad I know it's not hopeless to solo shadows 😅

Friendly Manitoba! I hope you bought a nice coin while you were there!

My question now is: Do you still need top tier pokémons to defeat it in time?
You said you wanted to test it out on a shadow raikou and coincidentally enough there was one down the street 😂
But no Gems
I was able to solo without the additional gems. But yes, average player will need to this strat...good info

This is right by where I live in Southdale 😃
Hello from Royalwood 😎
Mannn I’m sick that shadow raids are solo… literally just found out about the extended range for playmaking in normal raids (campfire app, I know I’m late…)
But I saw that raikou and got so excited… walked over to host one for some peeps since I was out of remote raid passes…

Thank you! I’ll be trying it!
You actually only need 5. I’ve done many of these recently and for some reason, it’ll finish off the rest of the health for you
Same. Been auto fainting around 20% with Raikou
Could you actually solo a five star shadow raid rn, maybe moltress bc double weak to rock…
Raikou has been solod
Yes I did one for lapras and it was successful
THANK YOU!!
nice background and good gameplay😂
Nice vid, Brandon, but I did that already a few weeks ago.
Useful information.
When doing this trick after using the first 5 gems do I leave then rejoin straight away to get the next 5 gems to become available or am I able to heal my pokemon before I rejoin ?
Brandon I Can't Wait To Meet you IN Oslo
huge, thanks
3 fingers = 8? Bet
Could me and my partner duo a shadow raikou if we each have 6 groudons?
Still haven't been able to play any of the new update
You got 7 shards from that raid not 3 lol
is shadow lapras solable?
has this been fixed or is it permanent?
Can alolan marowak from 3 star shadow be shiny?
A lone marowak?
Bro pls make catching shiny new dynamax
Where did you get all the lunala to fuse those necrozma?
trades what else
@@bankaiKb who is giving up those pokemon though?
I got one at Go-Fest Madrid, so that also added up for him visiting all 3 in person
Shadow marowak can be killed solo and 0 gems used easly.

That’s cool and all but tons of people play solo and only ever play solo
This don't work no more
Im at level 37 i really want a shadow marowak can i solo it by any chance 😅
Highly unlikely.
In my city nobody play, i can t raid shit :(
ha i have 15 gems 2 shards :)
12-5=7 not 8
If you watched the video, he used 8. He gained one more purified gem from the rewards for winning.
Thala for a reason
You don’t need gems for 3 star shadows I literally do these once a day when I play alone
wait what? my shadow Pokemon just never enrage for some reason
5 hours ago and late
Yoo
I wanna meet you but I'm too poor😭😭😭
Anyone else always mute the beginning of his videos to avoid hearing the cringe “ooooooooouuuuu” on every video!
