| Hidden Ability Sylveon | Belly Drum Azumarill |
The 1st Turn Is A Fixed Overheat
Decrease Of Sp. ATK Will Be Canceled
Before you are able to attack, it will attack you first with Overheat as well as cancel out decrease of Sp. ATK. If your Pokemon is low on Sp. Def, there are times that you will already be on the verge of fainting, so you want to heal prior to the next move.
Be Careful Of Confusion With Hurricane
At a 30% rate, Charizard will use Hurricane to try to Confuse you. Since Belly Drum increases your Attack if Azumarill becomes confused, you may attack yourself with a big damage, which might lead to you fainting so use "Heal up!" and heal prior to your next move.
Do NOT Use Rain Dance
If you change the weather to Rain by using Rain Dance, Charizard will mainly use Hurricane, and completing the Raid will be difficult. Even if Charizard uses Sunny Day to raise its moves, you want to continue keep continuing to attack.
You Can Defend With Covert Cloak
| Covert Cloak | When you make a Pokemon hold it, you will not be effected by your opponent's additional effects. Can be purchased Levincia's Delibird Presents |
The Covert Cloak is an item that cancels out any additional effects from your opponent's move. It can cancel out Hurricane, Fire Blast's additional effects, so you would not be in any extra state. When you are using Belly Drum Azumarill, it will decrease your HP by half, so you want to use some time to heal.
Frequent Healing Is Important.
The Unrivaled Charizard will use high-powered moves so you will get a lot of damage. Even if you try to heal, you will faint immediately, so you want to check your teammate’s HP and try to avoid fainting and use Cheering [Heal Up] when needed.
When Under Sunny Day, Charizard's Power Increases
Charizard's ability is [Solar Power]. While it is Sunny, its SP. ATK will increase 1.5 times, and all of Charizard's moves will be powered up. When Charizard uses Sunny Day, you want to be careful because you are at a high risk of fainting.
