Picking the weakest link is an interesting strategy. The thing that bugs me is your ai don’t dynamax, thus them having the strongest pokemon and not able to do as much damage as possible. This mode has huge flaws and kind of disappointing since i don’t like relying on others
Ya for sure, them never dynamixing does make life much more difficult and I agree. There are times where the ais will just ruin a run for the sake of ruining it
The problems are very frustrating, but they make sense. The shiny chance being so good and it basically being free legendaries means there has to be something that makes it hard.
I like how the AI we vs like Leon are actually smart like they use full restores and super effective hits and what not but then when we have AI on our side they are absolute trash XD
I was getting really frustrated today trying to catch legendaries. Just bad luck. Weak teams. Always getting one-shotted. I'm going to try this tomorrow. Thanks a lot! These sound like really good tips. :)
Love the tips. Its just this game is cheap. From paralyzing me during my dmax turns, to giving us all a disadvantage right from the start, to having the cpu using acupuncture on my other cpus Malamar which has contrary. This mode is out for blood
I tried picking the weakest rental and I ended up with a squad of pyukumuku with only status moves, jigglypuff, ninjask and an actually solid toxtricity that's completely out of my control 🤠 but this vid did help a lot ^^
I’m shiny hunting zygarde with npcs and I can’t count how many times they don’t take an ice type or go in with low health mons. I finally got the shiny after 155 adventures and winning 22 of them
Ive been solo shiny hunting kyurem for the last couple days, I can only kill him once every 2 or 3 raids and its easily the most annoying hunt ive tried. The NPCs have been frustrating me into stopping hunting for the day after like 4 or 5 raid, which is crazy because normally I can hunt for hours.
Well…. One thing about these Max Den battles is, basic poke balls don’t have a ‘fail’ rate against even the legends! But idk if the info is really going to help- lol hard thing to help with though imo… Was hoping there was a trick to get the legend you want… Kyruum and Risham from Pkmn Black & White are my two MAIN target Pkmn but ain’t seen them yet… While watching this in a Den run I saw it was type: Fire and was a bit excited thinking it might be that fire dragon… But alas it was Heatran. But I did end up getting it so… Both a win and a loss of sorts lol 😅
I don’t have a problem with if I’m solo or not. I’ve gotten the hang of it but what makes me upset is when I get knocked out of the den when I’m close to defeating the legendary. Even when I have a Pokémon has the advantage. I’m on a reshiram shiny hunt so it won’t be easy.
7:10 Im playng the dyna adventure while watching and for some reason my morpeko and the morpeko in this vid made the hunger switch at the same time and the same dark form. I know is stupid but for me it was confusing at first then funny xD
I have a better but a lot grind-ier. Get A LOT of Dynite Ore and find what I like to call a "perfect raid". once you begin a raid offline, that raid will be the exact same with the same pokemon but everything about the pokemon will be different. the shinyness, the gender, the perfrect stats, and the nature. this means you can reset for a shiny pokemon. I myself got a shiny landourus by doing this. the perfect raid consists of everything going right. the item doesnt matter. as long as you and the cpus get the right pokemon and arrive with losing zero - two lives in each raid. what matters if if your team can safely kill the legendary each and every time. final thing to note: you dont waist pokeballs. so if you have 999 dynite ore and want shiny kyogre in a dream ball then go for it. jsut know if you find a shiny that isnt the target and take it, THATS IT. youve just gotten rid of a perfect raid that you could reset on. now in the case of online, as long as you consistantly remain the host then you should be able to keep the raid. if you join and start someone else's raid by accident then you have lost your perfect raid. if you have a perfect raid offline then go online it will be different. if you complete the raid and take or dont take something then that offline raid will be gone for good. same vise versa. everytime i said raid i meant dynamax adventures.
I wonder if doing matchmaking then going in a raid on the first one then resting the switch to skip is faster because you skip one then play the rest with bots.
What I do when I don’t have any good Pokémon in the path ahead of me, I reset and choose a different target that the Pokémon are better suited for.(If none of my saved legendaries have good paths at the moment, I roll the dice and see what random legendary I can find😅)
is there a casual discord that i could join for raid battles/Dynamax Adventures in Sword and Shield i used to be a part of a fun one and I miss the fun. Thanks guys !
Hey Steven! Of course you are welcome to join my discord but for a cool casual discord dedicated to Pokemon you should also check out my buddy Daedra's discord discord.gg/ypdrddDUpE
I have been farming for a week for Zekrom. Not as a shiny. Just for him to SHOW UP. I'm playing shield, so he's in there. But he just won't show up. Peonia has never sold him either.
Since I have to play on a emulator and do not own a Switch or Nintendo Online, I can now hopefully do this, I tried 8 dynamax adventures today and the 3 other pokemon only buffed throughout everything, I hated it all
i just need proof that the shiny odds are the same in offline mode .. i have done so many of these and i want to know if doing this online increases the odds of getting a shiny. its 1/100 and i still have not gotten one after at least 150 runs .. its truly pathetic odds still
7:35 having dumb ass AI is not fun, there is a difference from something being difficult to loosing a run because your teammates were entraining the whole time, DA’s is such a horrible mode to have for shiny hunting and not well future proofed
Thanks for sharing your opinion. I get what you're saying. I'm just desperate for anything to make the Pokemon mainline games even a little more difficult!
tbh the AI guys were always smarter for me than normal online players that ALWAYS pick the bad mons and ALWAYS pick the wrong paths i once had a guy dynamax his jolteon on a zygarde and use max lighting over and over when i was galareon mr mime i was like why not just pass and it would go to someone who could actually use it lol
I heard that if you capture the final Pokemon i.e Entei for example, if it is not a shiny and you capture it it will not drop as a shiny in the future. Can anyone confirm this? (I have not caught for that reason)
@@LetsNot Okay thanks for the information luckly I caught my tapu as a shiny, but I still do not know what to expect when I got for my regeki I got one on a random trade shiny but idk if I can farm for one now or not.
Any should be possible, but I havent tried those 2 yet! Some require specific strategy like Wide Guard for Landorus, etc. I'd just need to see their movesets!
@@LetsNot ok man all goods cause other youtubers say that doing them solo Example being solgaleo or Lunala are just pointless cause it’s too difficult. I’m working up some bad anxiety lmaooo. But thanks for the reply man appreciate it🖤
@@shoto_9 All good! Well now I want to try :)! I will try to find Lunala or Solgaleo later and see for myself! So far, I've been able to beat any boss solo with careful planning so fingers crossed!

It’s not challenge. A challenge is supposed to be hard but u still have control over it. You barely have any control over this mode. It’s basically rng, and pray that your ai friends isn’t dumb and uses the right move. Rng =\= challenge.
@@LetsNot True, that's the most we as human players can do. But i'm just not convinced with game companies introducing RNG as a means of challenge as soon as the players needed one esp in the endgame. Because let's be honest the end game content in sword/shield pre expansion like the battle tower etc has been the easiest compared to previous games. And gamefreak was like, "ok too easy? here's RNG, there you go, CHALLENGE." It comes off as lazy.
Well I still dont have friends to do these lol. So I will have to continue trying alone. I cant trade for any pokemon because most of the trade offers are only showoffs. I cant catch the pokemon because the game is broken. (Not Hard...Broken. The AI is dumber than the Goldfish I have.) I dont even want shinys lol, just the normal dudes and dudettes xD.
"Pokemon is not a challenging game" Game: if you want shiny boost get EVERY pokemon. Me: crying inside because my only friend who plays pokemon has sword the same as me
Thanks because I don't have Online. Or friends...
Haha well if you ever do get online, then I'll be happy to help. But until then I'm glad the video could!
Same
Me too 😭😥

Kyogre with both Surf and Origin Pulse: Allow me to introduce myself.
is solo hunting kyogre possible? he just wipes the AI and they arent smart enough to ever possibly avoid it.
I'm literally here because of Kyogre ugh
@@BanishforCost I gave up on swsh kyogre after getting a shiny one on pokemon go
Had a Ditto on Groudon. It kept using earthquake...
It's possible but it's very hard cause of both of those moves. Only managed to catch around two of them out of many.

I pick the pokemon bad for the final pokemon because the ai loves to pick the worst pokemon 99%

10 times and failed everytime. Now I watched ur video and that single "choose the worst pokemon" advice helped me win first try :D

Nice! Glad I could help :)

Almost a year late but thank you so much for these tips! I've literally played Pokemon alone all my life. 😂

same here 😂 i just thought its ridiculous to do max raid solo
Can we get zekrom in Pokemon sword dlc ♥️ please reply
Love the vid as always this one was very interesting
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Yes
Yeah it was good video thx for the help
I’m over 3 year late yet this still helped got mewtwo first try
Did you try solo?

Hahahahaha exactly!!!! So much. I always asked for harder pokemon games... didn't realize this was how id see it
Very good video and strategy and it makes a lot of sense. Will be trying this out. Thanks so much
Happy to help!
Ive tried twice and got suicune and flygon. Going to try a lot today
nice vid, well thought out
Thank you!
I FIND THIS VIDEO ENTERTAINING AND I LIKE 👍 IT
JUST LIKED THE VIDEO AND SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL
Thanks!
Some good tips in the video! I will say any legendary with a spread move like surf is pretty much impossible to solo without extremely good luck.
yepm been struggling to get palkia for ages.
Jesus Christ I am having enough of a hard time against Solgaleo and Xerxes and they don't even have spread moves... that is crazy
Great vid
Thanks!
I tried picking the weakest rental and I ended up with a squad of pyukumuku with only status moves, jigglypuff, ninjask and an actually solid toxtricity that's completely out of my control 🤠
but this vid did help a lot ^^
I caught heatran first try, thank you.
Nice!!! You're welcome :)
this was so useful to me you dont even know, i have a whole box full of them
:D
thank you!
I wish I could play without the NPCs. They just spam the useless moves. I had to battle zygarde over 10 times (and im still battling it).
I’m shiny hunting zygarde with npcs and I can’t count how many times they don’t take an ice type or go in with low health mons. I finally got the shiny after 155 adventures and winning 22 of them
Perfect for me with no friends! thanks king lol
Haha glad I could help!
Hey we could play together
Ive been solo shiny hunting kyurem for the last couple days, I can only kill him once every 2 or 3 raids and its easily the most annoying hunt ive tried. The NPCs have been frustrating me into stopping hunting for the day after like 4 or 5 raid, which is crazy because normally I can hunt for hours.
Well…. One thing about these Max Den battles is, basic poke balls don’t have a ‘fail’ rate against even the legends! But idk if the info is really going to help- lol hard thing to help with though imo…
Was hoping there was a trick to get the legend you want… Kyruum and Risham from Pkmn Black & White are my two MAIN target Pkmn but ain’t seen them yet… While watching this in a Den run I saw it was type: Fire and was a bit excited thinking it might be that fire dragon… But alas it was Heatran. But I did end up getting it so… Both a win and a loss of sorts lol 😅
I hope I can catch more Legendary Pokemon through Dynamax Adventures!
I wouldn’t be here if the AI teammates played like AI enemies
When the NPC clearly has a suprt effective move but keeps spamming Rock Polish
I don’t have a problem with if I’m solo or not. I’ve gotten the hang of it but what makes me upset is when I get knocked out of the den when I’m close to defeating the legendary. Even when I have a Pokémon has the advantage. I’m on a reshiram shiny hunt so it won’t be easy.

Not a bad approach but super grindy for sure haha!
Any tips on trying to solo Zygarde?
its near impossible to me to beat any max lair solo, not only bcs its 65s vs a lv100 legendary, but the ai is just so bad
I wonder if doing matchmaking then going in a raid on the first one then resting the switch to skip is faster because you skip one then play the rest with bots.
Currently getting trounced by kyurem so thanks
I literally couldn't win a single one until I followed your tips!! Thanks for the info!!

Thanks bro, I'm sick of these stupid randos in dynamax so I'll just do it solo.

If I catch the legendary and is not shiny can you choose at final another pokemon and still try to get the shiny one?
No! As soon as you choose the legendary it will be gone forever
Completely off topic I got back to back shiny rookideees with mesuda. literally was about to quit, then my next two eggs were shiny.
Nice!!!!! Congrats :)
Turn off battle animations to make a 15 min max lair go to 8 mins
so the pokemon you catch, that don't appear to be shiny can become shinies when you complete the Lair adventure??

Dynamax has effectively ruined the game for me as a solo player
Oh no, he’s hot.
I can't for theife of me get zygarde. It's so frustrating. I just want to have these legends for my Home
same. solo zygarde has been impossible and no one ever joins from matchmaking so it’s kinda forced solo
Why does my Rayquaza keep running after i beat it???
I have no idea, I dont think I've ever had something run away. Unless you choose not to catch it maybe?
Maybe u already caught one u can only catch 1 legendary each
You can't catch the same legendary twice
if you choose not to catch it, or have already caught it in a dynamax adventure before, it will run away
