7 Star Decidueye Raid Boss Counter Guide

7 Star Decidueye Raid Boss Counter Guide

Source Node: 2019634

Hello, trainers. As mentioned before, Miraidon and Bellibolt are two of the best counters for the 7-star Decidueye raid. Miraidon is resistant to everything Decidueye can throw at it. And even if Bellibolt doesn’t have perfect resistance, electromorphosis helps it get more power to deal higher amounts of damage. This piece will suggest a couple of builds for Miraidon and Bellibolt for players to counter the 7 Star Decidueye Raid boss.

Miraidon is arguably the perfect counter with the proper support. Here are the details of the build.

Level: 100

Nature: Modest

EVs: Invest in speed and special attack. Miraidon will naturally be ok against attacks that it naturally resists. Players want to make sure their Miraidons are fast and hit hard with moves that do STAB like Electro Drift.

Held Item: Magnet for the win. Get as much electric power build-up as you can.

Tera Type: Electric

Moveset: Charge, Electro Drift, Parabolic Charge, Metal Sound

Charge is good for increasing the damage of electric-type moves Miraidon will deal for the most part as DPS. Electro Drift is its signature move, so players will absolutely want to have it. Parabolic Charge is good as it will help Miraidon support itself by self-healing.

If people do not want two electric-type moves, they can also teach them Power Gem for rock-type coverage as it will mess with flying types.

Finally, Metal Sound will lower Decidueye’s special defense, helping Miraidon’s attacks knock it out hard.

Bellibolt

Another counter that can also provide good support is Bellibolt. Here is that breakdown below.

Level: 100

Nature: Mild

EVs: Invest in defense and special attack. Bellibolt will hold up for the most part. However, players need to make sure Bellibolt can hit hard with special attacks and stay standing to support itself and its allies.

Held Item: Same as Miraidon, magnet for the win. However, players can also give it leftovers or focus sash.

Tera Type: Electric

Moveset: Acid Spray, Chilling Water, Reflect, Electric Terrain

Acid Spray is a classic raid support move as it is good for lowering a Pokemon’s special defense. Always have this on a special attacking mon. Chilling Water, while not able to do super effective damage, lowers attack by one stage each time, dampening Decidueye’s power.

Reflect is probably the most important move as it weakens the power of all opposing physical moves. This will make it harder for Decidueye to knock players out. Lastly, Electric Terrain will provide a buff to all electric attacks. However, if Bellibolt has Miraidon as an ally, Hadron Engine will make E-Terrain redundant. So, if Bellibolt can learn Parabolic Charge, go with that instead so it can also heal itself on top of leftovers.

Conclusion

This 7-Star Decidueye Raid Boss counter guide will help players make this 7-star raid easier. 7-star raids are hell. So, players have to go hard to succeed in them. Take the necessary time to prepare, gather a team, and kick this owl off its perch.
