Raikou, Raikou, just use Raikous.

If Thunder, use Groudons with Solar Beam. If Hydro Pump, use Alolan Exeggutors with Bullet Seed and Solar Beam (or Seed Bomb). If Blizzard, use Kyogres with Thunder. (Note: These counters provide the best TDO)

I think it goes something like this:

1. Pray for thunder
2. Use the supreme counters (raikou, venusaur) if you have them and the next best beyond them.
3. Aim to get off 1 charge attack per attacker. Poor timing (Pokémon arriving just as kyogre fires) is bad
4. Even if your prayers are answered and you get thunder, be prepared to max revive team chosen in step 2.
5. you will probably have to do step 4 twice because kyogre and waterfall combination is powerful enough that you only take 1 charge move pretty much regardless of what attacker you use regardless of weather and regardless of charge move (maybe 2 Thunder for high level raikou?). If kyogre has weather boost on attack. Forget about any possibility of taking 2 charge moves. So, be sure you have at least 12 max revives.
6. Stagger trainer max revivings so that someone is always in the battle.
7. Win and lick your wounds

I recall doing weather boosted blizzard with 6 and needing 15 revives at the end. (Did not max revive top team during battle). No other raid boss hurts me to the extent that kyogre does.

And a perfect, maxed TS/WC raikou can still only take 1HP/8WF, 1B/5WF, or 2T/5WF (I think) in neutral weather. Nothing survives well. You only tank 2 Thunder if you get thundered right away. Otherwise, you get fainted from 1T/8WF. WF wrecks!

True. I guess the guide would say aim to get off one 1-bar move (SoB or PB), two to three 2-bar moves (Wild charge, frenzy plant), and three to five 3-bar moves (leaf blade)

If u know the trainers:
Be 4 people and have some revives/potions.
+ optimal size to go around by car
+ U dont need to be super freaks (according to simulation I make 30% and my team is nothing special)
+ everyone still gets 3 damage balls

Better prepare 3 Teams in advanced as follow:
1. Raikou
2. Zapdos
3. Eggy or Freezy Plant Venusaur
further: SB Venusaur, Electro Eevee and the usual suspects Mewtwo, Nite, Gengar, Machamp

*Note* Sceptile and SB Groudon might make it but cuz I dont have them I cant tell and the Simulation was made with extrem Weather.

To put it simply you can’t small group a Kyogre with Blizzard unless you all have super high level Raikous. Even then you’ll struggle. Just hope for thunder
