Stormy Sea - Battle Tips
Recommended Level: 35+
Enemies in this dungeon are pretty tough and can hit harder especially when the weather is Raining. It's not advisable to go through it being underleveled.
Recommended Pokemon Type: Electric & Grass
Electric and Grass types are ideal for this Dungeon since the enemies are mostly Water and Ground types. Both Electric & Grass are strong & resistant to the enemies in the dungeon.
Rainy Weather Will Boost Water Attacks
Proceed with caution when the floor you're in has Rainy Weather. This means all water attack will be boosted, including those of your enemies.
Switch Leaders to Conserve Stamina
The rooms inside the Stormy Sea dungeon are large and if you're unlucky, you'll need to walk through most of them to find the stairs. Try to conserve energy by switching between your Pokemons to control.
Ideal to Recruit Pokemon to Your Team
The boss at the end of the Dungeon is strong and can easily take down a team with its multiple target attacks. Prepare for that battle by rescuing and recruting Pokemon you find on your way.
Keep an Eye Out for a Mystery House
A Mystery House can spawn within the Dungeon. Keep an eye out for it. It will require an invitation for you to go inside of it.

Tips to Defeat Kyogre
Current Moves & Slows Allies
A strong current can sweep through the floor, moving your Pokemon from their position and applying a slow debuff to them. Where your Pokemon ends up will be random.
Make Use of Orbs to Buff Allies
All Protect Orbs and All Dodge Orbs will help you to survive against your fight with Kyogre since most of its moves can hit multiple Pokemon. Use them right after being swept by the strong current.
Kyogre Will Revert to its Primal State
Deal enough damage to Kyogre and it will undergo Primal Reversion and go back to its Primal State. This will change its ability to Heavy Rain, which boosts Water-type attacks and nullify Fire-type attacks.
Use Status Effects on Kyogre
Put Kyogre to sleep or stun it with different items to stop it from attacking your team. This will give you enough time to deal damage with any risks of getting hit back.
