Deoxys Attack Forme Solo Raid Guide

Overview

Any time that Deoxys-Attack shows up, it's always an exciting prospect. And this isn't due to its utility; nope, this guy is currently borderline useless. It's exciting because this is the single easiest Tier 5 in the entire game, and a great chance to farm resources! If you've been around for a while and have a decent raid group, then chances are that you can solo Deoxys-Attack. It's extremely frail, and can easily be destroyed by off-type counters. 

On that note, this raid guide is going to look very different from what we normally produce. Why is that? Because Deoxys-Attack can be soloed by a huge number of Lv.40 Pokemon, so our guide will actually focus on TDO over DPS. Deoxys-Attack can hit very hard and will take out many of the normal Psychic Type counters pretty quickly, so the best play is to pick up counters that will curb-stomp this space virus via solo-viable DPS while staying on the field for as long as possible. A lot of Pokemon are capable of the solo beyond what we have here, but this should be a good starting point.

Approach

Team composition

• Focus on TDO over DPS for the most part. Even the low-DPS counters on this list tend to have at least 1.2x the DPS needed tp win

• Try to load in counters that resist Deoxys - Attack's moves to maximize your odds of success.

Dodging strategy

• Dodging can be a huge help if it allows you to avoid relobbying an additional time
