Duoing Latios (Getting Ready)
So here's the thing: I'm getting ready for Latios (We're raiding Latias currently), I want to attempt duo him. I've watched some videos, guys used max level Rayquazas or Dragonites. The question is: is it necessary to max them out, or should I just get to the breakpoints? For example, Rayquaza requires only 37-37,5 level to hit for 14 points of dmg.
So, any suggestions? There's my list for the raid. Ofc, 1 Rayquaza isn't ready at all, and my Dragonite and Salamence passed the breakpoints for 13 dmg. I have to level up Rayquazas for now, but will 37,5 lvl be enough, or I must max them out?
P.S. I don't have my future partner's list, but let's assume that their mons are the same or even better.
P.P.S. I guess we have to assume that duoing will happen only on non-outrage Latios, cuz otherwise it'd be impossible. Am I right?
P.P.P.S. I was inspired by this video: https://youtu.be/b1Ys6gb_rbE

With assistants it assumes you are battling with your battle party and 5 other raiders at random levels 30 to 40. I just look at the power of the battle party--20% in some cases for 150sec. If you have a dragon use them. When I see 6 Tyranitars it tells me psychic, fairies tell me dragon claw, dragons say solar beam---regardless I'll use my all-dragon battle party. However, diving in not going to get you 50-55% damage--I'd look for a 40-50 mil person if I was gonna try to duo
Not sure how much of a difference this will make for you, but remember that Latios carries Dragon Claw as a charged move in place of Outrage. Upside is that it hits for far less damage. Downside is that he can spam it ad nauseum and it's significantly harder to dodge than Outrage.
I'd say for an all-dragons duo Latios team, you'd fare best against Solar Beam. Dragon Claw tends to cut through fellow Dragons very quickly.
