Used serperior, except had stellar tera and was holding metronome with the moveset: leaf storm, tera blast, giga drain and light screen. Did 3 leaf storms, terastalised then giga drain then just blasted through with tera blast using heal chear when on low health so as not to affect the metronome

I used meoscarada( with shell bell, adamant nature and max attack and hp)by using the following moves in order: 1) turn one knock off 2) hone claws 3) hone claws 5)flower trick (till Pikachu is defeated) Note : flower trick before terastrillization does not does much damage but after terastrillization it does huge chunks of damage since flower trick always crits ( ability does not matter )

I use the Venusaur you suggested from your last video and it works. I even finish the raid before it hits 60% of the raid timer. Thanks for consistly helping the community and lots of love from the Philippines 🇵🇭!

^ Obviously not available to everyone, but I will say, if you have Arceus available from PLA, this method is extremely quick and easy/reliable so if you plan on farming, this is the raid to do it.

Wo-Chien dominates this raid: turn 1 Knockoff, turn 2 Sunny day, turn 3-4 Growth, then Giga Drain spam while holding a Metronome.

I beat the raid on the first attempt because of your guide. Very helpful

Updated my arboliva build to your last video and that worked really well. Now to do the outbreaks.

Thanks for the comment and support!! Hope you enjoy the Pika events :)

I've been using the following setup to great success: Decidueye @ Metronome -Ability: Overgrow -Nature: Modest -Tera Type: Grass EVs: -252 Sp.A -180 HP -76 Spe* *Edit: This EV Spread will allow you to have 1 speed point more than pikachu (you will have 195 speed @ lvl100) which allows you to get a turn 1 knock off before you get hit by Pikachu's second damaging attack. Seems to be more consistent and not have to use cheer: heal as often in-between nasty plots if you get bad rng/allies. Moves: -Giga Drain -Nasty Plot -Knock Off -Energy Ball (was testing this but giga drain with metronome seems to be better than energy ball+shell bell spam with the occasional giga drain for further heal) My strategy is: -knock off turn 1 -nasty plot turns 2-4 (+6 SpA) -spam giga drain til win (tera grass as soon as available) Usually finish with ~60% shield remaining, easily farmable and fast with minimal effort

thanks for the Pokémon builds for the pikachu raids

Excellent as always, thanks 👍

The Serperior build was super quick and easy! All of the leaf storms hit LOL. Thanks Osirus for another great raid build!

I remember using Arboliva when this Pikachu Raid first appeared, which was pretty much spamming Terrain Pulse and Giga Drain with the ability Seed Shower. Now I opted for the Serperior build. Although I didn't use Knock Off or Sunny Day, I still had an easy time against it.

Used Lurantis, and it worked beautifully. :) Thank you!

Thank you! I got it solo on the first try with your Lurantis build. ❤

While Running the lurantis/Serperior strat: use heal cheers if you need if you haven't/can't terastalize if your health gets low. Especially if your pokemon of choice is slower than pikachu. Had to use heal cheer twice during set up just to make sure I had the health to terastalize and not lose my lurantis during my run.

Thank you for the great help sir

I saw your Serperior build the other day and since it was only available in an upgraded biome I had about 2000 BP to gather by myself. It was worth it though because I set him up exactly how you suggested and I’ve had no problem whatsoever with the pikachu raid! Thank you!

I used a bellossom build you recommended some time ago, just switched the shell bell for a covert cloak, It worked pretty well 🎉

I guess serperior might be better, but I'll stick with sunny day lurantis. Weakens surf, leaf guard blocks paralysis, and reduces thunders accuracy to 50%

Shield Dust Venomoth, Tera Grass, QuiverDance, Giga Drain, Energy ball, Sunny Day made it a doddle for me

Glad this is gonna be a quick and easy one. The sceptile was easy enough with fezendipiti, so long as you don't get paralyzed 😢 lost everytime I would get paralyzed and I went 15 tries before I went without that dang thing lol

@Osirus thanks, with either of those 2 builds seems like it's gonna be a nice easy farm session 😁

My favorite build for online is Contrary Ability Serperior using Leaf Storm and holding Metronome - max EV on Special Attack and Special Defense. Turn 1 set sunny day and turn 2 cheer for defense. After that, just metronome-spam your leaf storm, getting that special attack boost with each hit from Leaf Storm due to contrary and of course the Metronome. If lucky, you can kill in turn 6 due to the attack boost from leaf storm, metronome, and terastal attack boosts with little support but will almost always kill by turn 9. Even better if you run this raid with others that are willing to heal you and let you be the main attacker for the raid. Contrary covers for any defense-losses you would otherwise take from Iron Tail, effectively making the covert cloak practically useless anyway for this fight, so I decided something like Metronome or even Choice Specs would be ideal for this fight. THIS IS A GLASS CANNON VERSION of the SERPERIOR Build. Full Strat: Serperior Lv. 100 Ability: Contrary (Needs Ability Patch) Max IVs through Hyper-Training, 252 Sp Atk, 252 Sp Def, 6 HP Moveset: Leaf Storm, Sunny Day, Giga Drain, (Grassy Terrain, Knock-Off, or Reflect are all decent for 4th move choice; depends on how you run it.) Turn 1: Set Sunny Day to clear Rain Dance running solo or with randoms. If someone else takes on this role or casts a defense cheer, commit to metronome Leaf Storm immediately. Turn 2: Either Cheer for Defense, or set your 4th move (Grassy Terrain/Knock-Off/Reflect). Alternatively if running with others willing to support you, immediately start using Leaf Storm to boost your attack and start Metronome. Turn 3: If you take crit damage and are below 100 HP, use Giga Drain or a healing cheer NOW. Otherwise start/continue building metronome Leaf Storm. Turn 4: Metronome Leaf Storm Turn 5: If no other party member has fainted and luck is on your side with hit accuracy (Leaf Storm is 90% accurate), this will be the first turn you can Terastal. Turn 6: First turn this raid can end if you've been doing metronome since turn 1 or 2 and have Terastallized. (At this point it is just recommended to spam Leaf Storm until the Pikachu has fainted.) Anytime you see a Serperior in a raid other than your own, try to support it the best you can for best results. Venasaur with Sunny Day Solar Beam, Rillaboom and Arboliv with their abilities setting Grassy Terrain, and of course Ogerpon are all great supports to this strat without a ton of overlap, making them my favored choices. Lurantis has direct overlap with Serperior for strats here, but Serperior has the better stat spread for this fight, completely winning in defense and speed and only just barely losing in Sp. Atk (by 5 base points). This strat only loses if you can't get a good attack chain going without fainting, as when Serperior faints, all of those attack boosts get reset along with any cheers. From my experience, this has been an incredibly fast and effective way to chain raids, but may backfire without others being somewhat aware of the strategy here.

The superior worked like a charm! Finished with way over half timer left lol

Thanks for the build PS if you get arboliva as a partner the grassy tarrain gets the raid done even quicker!

I caught pikachu in an ultraball and great Tera build

This raid came with a few changes which makes this run easier. The EVs in Sp. Atk and HP have been removed, and they altered the shield to be less effective. The damage output for tera is now the standard 20/30/70% we've seen for most raids. This info can be found on the Serebii page. Someone mentioned this also, but this can no longer be a Jumbo Pikachu. The scale has been set to 128.

TCG Trainers had an Annihilape build we used, took it in used focus energy did a cheer all out, got knocked out and came back to rage fist about 9 times. Great nephew went in with me and used his Lurantis.

I used the Clodsire build and Rillaboom. Beat him easily with both.

Ogerpon Raid build: Ivy Horn leech Focus energy Swords dance Held item: Scope lens Evs: Max hp Max attack Focus energy turn 1, SD once. Spam horn leech till orb charge. Tera ivy cudgel hits hard and almost always crits for more dmg. Iron tail will give u defiant boost. Enjoy the build.

Just ran it again for the rewards (caught Pikachu during the last event). Used Meowscarada again, but Pikachu never used an electric attack on my for w/e reason. Just Surf, Play Rough, and Iron Tail. Even at -3 DEF, Pikachu wasn't hitting hard at all with the held item knocked off.

Used Lurantis with my battle with Pikachu & got it on the first try using your move sets! Although I didn't have Knock Off as I don't have the DLC in my Scarlet Version so Synthesis would have to do! Anyways, as I using Leaf Storm to power up my Special Attack, I fainted once so I had to use Leaf Storm 3 more times before terastallizing & used Giga Drain the rest of the way! Caught it with an Ultra Ball just like the last tera raid events! I never got a chance to do this event the first time around so lucky for me I got a chance to do it this time around! Hope they bring back the Cinderace & the Greninja events as I didn't get a chance to do those one the first time around either!

A very nice build is lurantis i managed to solo with these ability and moveset Ability: Contrary Moveset: Leaf storm Synthesis Giga drain Sunny day

I got it with the use of Lurantis Funny enough the only down side was someone brought the steel poison Pokemon that looks like a car motor to the raid. Lost to surf at the first go. Had to work hard and fast. We had an olivia (sorry I don't remember it's name fully) and, iron hands (yes I know) but did amazing damage. The iron hands focused on fighting moves and became fighting Tera type. Did some damage. Olivia (I can't get its name right) was an amazing back up with its leaf storm and, giga drain.

I used sinistcha with help of my friend’s bellibot with acid spray , Tera matcha signature move helped . Plus reflect also and calm mind

I used a dive ball for mine coz water, but damn the serperior worked amazingly, I was lucky to not even get to yellow health or miss any giga drains. My first successful 7-star raid.

Thank you for always making quality videos that help out all the Pokemon trainers! 👍🏻 and subscribe !

the Serperior worked great, had to stop the first time since i didnt watch my health but i defeated the pikachu the second time, really helps to save right before the raid and turn autosave off.

used Ogerpon. shell bell. EVs in attack and HP. Defiant. Ivy Cudgel, Horn Leech, Swords Dance, Knock Off.

Shiny Arceus meadow plate stellar terra. Recover, bulk up (for added defense to help with iron tail), calm mind, judgement. Spam calm mind and bulk up and use recover when needed. Easy win in solos.

Instead of using covert cloal on serperior,I’ve used cheri berry because it’s funny when iron tail hits and raises your defense instead of lowering it

Sinistcha takes it down every time. Max special def. Max special attack with attack down and special attack up. Covert cloak. Nasty plot , matcha

Lurantis worked perfectly, beat it first try lol

The build I used on my Serperior used the moves, Coil, Leaf blade, Giga drain(didn't see use😅) and light screen.(Man I did the raid unintentionally on hard mode.😅) and held item was a shell bell. Nature was sassy, stats were basically how Serperior's Graph looks when you press the L bumper. Hyper training was done with a gold bottle cap(thank you BBA item printer) and the tera type was Grass. Raid was defeated successfully at 2:30am on Friday 12 July 2024. If I do try to farm this raid, I will use a different build and Pokémon.

Now shiny hunting alolan raichu in the terrarium. Got 2 shinies so far but no marks. Edit: Ended up with 6 shinies. Two jumbo and 4 non-marked. Will continue when i get back home from work.

I used mew with tera grass adamant nature, synchronize ability, shell bell item and moves sunny day, knock off, swords dance and solar blade, it was pretty easy despite the fact that i made a mistake and started swords dancing instead of attacking and got the terra very late

I used the Serperior build and I used the fast ball to catch Pikachu

I was able to beat it with the annahilape (unsurprisingly), max hp and attack. Pp maxed rage fist and focus energy with shell bell tera ghost, literally just keep spamming rage fist and you can get away with being knocked out up to two times before teraing, just watch out with getting paralyzed, focus energy isn't needed but if you can sneak one in it helps speed up the raid

Full squad of ogerpon does the job, but honestly max speed serperior with the build suggested here was the best. Fewer liabilities and the chance of getting useful support thru NPCs is more promising than idiots and trolls

I hope when they stop active support for this gen, they cycle through all the 7 star raids every week

If anyone wants to know how effective this build is, let me tell you a small tale of my stupidity. For these raid builds I generally like to build a pokemon from scratch, i.e. breed a pokemon for at least 5/6 Best IVs. For EVs I'll either use vitamins or manually EV train with Power held items, just depends on what I feel like at the time. This time I did it all manually, and built up the raid build "exactly." But when I took the Serperior in, I found myself getting 2-shot by the Surfs. Was able to terrastalize and keep myself alive from then on, but it was obvious I was going to run out of Leaf Storms before the Pikachu goes down. So I left the raid, PP Upped Leaf Storm, came back in, continued to be 2-shot until I could terra, used only Knock Off and Giga Drain to build up that Terra charge, used all 8 Leaf Storms and some more Giga Drains to get the win, but it did it. Cool. But why did I struggle? Then I see it. My dumbass forgot to finish leveling up Serperior, which means this build works even at level 61.

FARM BUILD Lurantis as shown here, except hold Wide Lens (gives Leaf Storm 99% accuracy) & no Sunny Day Turn 1: Knock Off Turn 2-3: Leaf Storm Turn 4: Terastallize & Giga Drain Turn 5+: Leaf Storm

Is this considered to be good for farming Herba Mystica?

I used a Clodsire ground tera. Much slower. Storm drain or whatever ability negates water moves. HP and Def IVs. Curse x6 and earthquake it down. I had the egg move Recover, but didn't need it. And Gunkshot. Used gunkshot to build up tera charge after using 6x curses, terastalised and just EQed it down. And shell bell.

Clodsire just cant die amazing😂😂😂😂

Covert cloak is not necessary. Miracle seed is better. All raid bosses will spam the most efficient move, so just let Pikachu keep the rain. Pikachu will then only spam surf. After rain is done, Pikachu will just spam iron tail. Pikachu will only use thunder if it is boosted by electric terrain, or other situations where thunder can cause more damage. knockoff is also not too necessary. All it needs is simply: 1x Leaf storm , 2x giga drain , Tera to grass, Leaf storm/Giga drain till victory.

I just used Ogerpon and beat it first try. Shell bell, 252 atk and spd with 6 hp.

Ogerpom + shellbell made it very easy. You can set grass terrain turn 1. Afterwards give a defense cheer. Pika will only use iron tail. When it lowers your defense you get +2 attack buff. After a couple iron tails you will full heal every attack and do massive damage.
