Raiding tier 3s with maxed generalists

Have “best” moves and assuming neutral weather:
Mewtwo
Raikou
Tyranitar
Dragonite
Kyogre
***have maxed SC/ShB Gengar, use that since Groudon is only at 3554cp

Would beating Pinsir be the main toughest (not likely) to beat with the above raid party?

I don’t have enough to max my Entei, if so that would help a general squad. Do have a lot of revives/potions

It would be fun to try it out just see what kind of damage that team can do with a resistant raid boss. I would try it out but I don't have any lvl 40 Pokemon and probably never will

With my #1 best team I beat Jynx with fire 22 to 26 sec left. I would beat it 100% of the time with that team, just wonder if I could have the Mewtwo and Tyranitar drag the other not optimal party members across the line. I don't want to purposely pick lower level pokemon for a challenge, but let my most powerful ones do a "give and take" for a few tier 3s

According to pokebattler:
Machamp: Easy. Mewtwo and Dragonite get you ahead of the clock and Gengar, Kyogre and Raikou can finish the fight.
Gengar: Even easier, all your mons have the DPS for the solo. May require dodging though.
Piloswine: Even easier, Kyogre may get through more than halfway by itself if dodging specials.
Jynx: Challenging. Gengar, Mewtwo and Tyranitar have the DPS, the rest may be able to pull the rest of the way through dealing neutral.
Pinsir: 0% chance, your team has one attacker with TTW below 180s.
Granbull: Easy, put Tyranitar and Gengar last, they shouldn't need to enter the fight at all.

I have 2 Moltres at 96%...however, I powered them both up to 2850 to 2900. I powered just one Entei and it came in Oct when we had double candy...that isn't as high IV but at 3054 closer to an overpowering cp range at the moment. Still deciding on Moltres vs Entei, too

Those 3 coupled with some Flareons will do the job for Pinsir. The boss has such a high defense that generalists don't really cut it.

I beat Pinsir vice grip in partly cloudy with close to 15-20 sec(?) remaining. Just seeing if I can burn some revives and possibly need to dodge out of necessity. I’ll try my Entei first and then my other 5 true generalists against these tier 3s and/or whatever the next ones are

Moltres would be a great help with Jynx but probably wouldn't be enough for Pinsir.

Lately every single comment I make has been getting 2 downvotes, even if it's entirely fact-based and neutral in tone. Someone seems to be mad at me but wants to keep it anonymous.

I like this idea. One Team to Beat Them All. I don't have enough maxed mons, but I have enough at level 35 that I might be able to pull it off.

I've done a generalist setup against Machamp with 162 def before and I have won without using super effective damage. It was a close fight though with 12 seconds left. Lineup was 3 shadow claw gengar 2 dragons and a Flareon. Today my teams have vastly improved so I would like to try again but it's possible without maxed out teams.

Vaporeon with its 177 defence is already posing some problems. Max dragons were cutting it really thin for me already.

Pinsir at 197 Def seems to be impossible without some super effective aid. For this I suggest Moltres or flying rayquaza. It is pretty much alakazam level defence, which is to say, quite insane to do without SE damage.

6 maxed DT/OR Rayquaza might be able to pull off the neutral damage Pinsir, pokebattler gives it 176s time to win.
