Most epic solo raid
Donphan with weather boosted play rough. No weather boost for any of my pokemon.
My Kyogre, three Gyarados' and Exeggcutor died.
My Frenzy plant Venusaur, which i had never previously used, killed it in the very last second. Venusaur had 7hp left.
That was oddly satisfying. What's your most epic raid.

First Alakazam. Confusion / future sight moveset, no charge button, no weather boost. Used T-tar, Gengar, T-tar, T-tar, T-tar (last mon was a Scizor that was never used). Won on the fourth try, with zero seconds remaining. T-tars were all L30 except one L32. First and last T-tar (both L30) had B/SE, other two had B/C. Gengar was L34.
On the last try, I swapped out my SC/SB Gengar in favor of a H/SB Gengar. The faster energy gain of hex allowed me to launch an extra shadow ball, which put me over the top. SC/SB is usually better, but not always.
Alakazam is still the most fun T3 boss, IMO, and I wish they would bring him back and make him permanent.
SC/SB is a great pokemon, but in this case, it kept fainting just as it was about to launch its second shadow ball. With hex, I was able to launch two SB's (almost three) because of the faster energy gain. You sacrifice a lot of quick-move DPS with hex, but the extra SB more than made up for it in this case.
For me it would be a weather boosted Alolan Raichu. I came up to the pokestop and saw that there was one person (presumably a spoofer) in so I figured with two people it should be no problem. So I jump in and get my team ready for what I think will be a fairly easy battle when the spoofer quits (presumably to do it solo). So instead of my walk in the park I was left with a nail biter of a fight that I won with three seconds left on the clock.
When raids first came out, i was about level 32. I found a good group quickly, but the allure of the solo drew me in. I had failed against Arcanine and Machamp solo before, but my first success came against Arcanine. I used a maxed (for my level) Golem, a level 30 Golem, level 28 Golem, and a couple low 30s Vaporeon. Barely won and it was awesome! I remember coming here to brag on myself as well! It's comical to think of for easy Arcanine would be if it came back if I could beat it with that rag tag team.
Close second was my first Machamp solo. Alakazam, Espeon, Dragonite, Exeggutor bringing it home. And I got a 96 Machamp which was my first good Machamp and now my second best Machamp!
