Theorycraft: Shiny Only Gyms

Just a fun question, assume you and friends got together and made a shiny only Gym.

What would be the hardest gym you can make with just shinies. Assume you control all 6 pokemon and order they go in.

((Disclaimer: I know nothing is really hard.. and only GRB makes any difference this is just for fun))

Metagross espeon umbreon charizard blastoise venusaur , everything with the com day charge move exept the eeveeloutions . Ttar or typhlosion would be good too ... even discharge jolteon is great

Shiny Muk would be rough. Shiny Espeon possibly?

In cloudy weather a shiny Hariyama could be a welcomed addition. A two move shiny Charizard BB+DC maybe give it AS.

Red Gyarados!

TBH, finding the formula that encourages Niantic to autoselect Aggron makes your gym considerably stronger. Gym attacking isn't an engaging activity so there are people that go with autoselect (plus people on buses w/ lights/traffic)

To that end, normal, flying and poison moves would be the way to do. Aggron double resists all three. The auto select favors defensiveness over all else, and not much resist all three like aggron does, so its likely to be one of the top picks

Metagross, Charizard, Gyarados, Muk, Venasaur, umbreon, given appropriate spacing between them. Meant to contend with the 2 best gym attackers, metagross and machamp. Umbreon to bait in machamp, and the other pokemon there to make sure machamp has a slow time fighting or force a switch out more likely, as well as gyarados and Charizard to make metagross have a less than easy run, the others providing pure tank with good moves
