I remember all this talk about how we need to shield and heal, but I guess that only matters against G-max bosses. Against most D-max bosses it's pretty much still straight nuking. My buddy and I were able to duo Articuno, happy about that. Zapdos at a glance seems doable. We were with two newbies (basically) during raid hour, my buddy and I going in with Excadrill, G-max Lapras (Ls strike), and an Articuno to leave behind (for candy farm) and the Excadrills survived the whole fight no problem. Of course, with two extra people to help farm the max meter, and attack boosts from leave-behinds, hard to say how easy/doable it'll be. My guess is Excadrill will likely be a decent tank when trying to solo/duo, so possibly two of them, and G-max Lapras for nuking when dynamaxed. If Excadril proves too squishy, possible Metagross as it's tankier, and has resistance from two of Zapdos' attacks. My buddy and I will certainly be on the hunt tomorrow to test it out while there's still a chance we'll have access to some attack boosts.
Confirmed duo at level 40 with no on site attack bonus and no max mushrooms. Two excadrills and a lapras with level 3 max strike. Thunderbolt as the sweeper move, and ancient power as the targeted move. Roughly a half hour spent relobbying to get the move set.
How? I'm F2P and have every single G and Dmax mon. What is making you buy stuff? You can collect 7,200 max particles a week that's 8 zapdos you can do, that's multiple pokemon you can level up and still do multiple zaps.
Hiya AK! Do you have any advice for what's the best move set for Dynamax Zapdos? Mine came with Charge Beam and Drill Peck. I'm going to use it for raiding exclusively. I appreciate all your info, and thanks for your help.
Thunder Shock is the preferred fast move for Zapdos, however it is a legacy move & will require the use of an Elite Fast TM. For the charge move, you'll mostly want Thunder or Thunderbolt (having Drill Peck or Ancient Power in the 2nd charge move slot is also a good idea, if you end up using Zapdos for Rocket & gym battles on top of raids)
The gmax attack from lapras hit Zapdos like a fucking truck, I tried to stay alive with excadrill using shield sometimes when I need it, Doom is so fucking badass btw.
they either need to give out more candy for these mons or lower the cost. i vote for lowering the cost . like some of these mons are just straight up impossible to power up. also i hear zap is easier but idk.
Saw a video a few hours ago of someone soloing a Zapdos with 2 Excadrill and a regular Gengar.
Just saw that too. Wild that no Articuno or Lapras was used.
Yer, twas quite interesting to see
I tried this but with a higher level gigantimax gender and got fucked lol
Got link?

They definitely don’t give out stuff like the old days player base must be shrinking 😂
The extra 50% deal was too tempting

If you buy the 99 bundle you will never go back to 0 poke coins again
With one person using a max mushroom we were able to duo Zapdos, though it took a couple tries. Probably didn't even need the mushroom
Rewards for Apple lmao you should put that in your stand up set 🎉
We 3-manned Zapdos primarily with Excadrill and Lapras.
Everything about money in pokemon go. Nasty, just becoming micro sales like every othee game

Excadrill with Mud Shot and Rock Slide.
Mud Shot generates more energy and Zapdos still takes damage as though it a single resist.
It is a single resist
Dynamax Cryogonal can put in work as well… 🥶
Thank u! Thank u for tells us about the website deal!!!
Went out with 3 trainers took it down leading with excadrill and swapping to lapras in gmax/dmax phase with a toxtricity in the back
Like the gold backdrop on the right~

You could use machamp with rock slide as a secondary move
Yes it’s the candy. 🍬 we need more!!!
The gmax attack from lapras hit Zapdos like a fucking truck, I tried to stay alive with excadrill using shield sometimes when I need it, Doom is so fucking badass btw.
I've found that using 2 Excadrill's and one Metagross works fine with just me and two other accounts with similar counters
I gonna buy this deal. It's a good deal for the unova go tour global
Dope vid Ak
What's the game at the end...
I hate that I'm too damn broke for these cool pokemon events 😒 😂
I guess the report this is on Reddit might at be accurate or close. Apparently they made around the same revenue as 2016
Articuno isn’t too bad to use .. 😅 gotta power it up though
Does anyone have any idea how long the pokecoin deal will be available in the web store?
Till the 31st
Imagine spending 100 quid on pokemon go coins. Mental.
Did anyone else not get the 3/4 particle cost reduction?
they either need to give out more candy for these mons or lower the cost. i vote for lowering the cost . like some of these mons are just straight up impossible to power up. also i hear zap is easier but idk.
When does the double coins leave
Friday 31st of January
Dynamax Machamp with Rock Slide ?
Cryogonal, no?
Spend more money and feed the Niantic machine...and that's why I've stopped playing.
I still enjoy your videos.
Thanks for the video Poke 🙂
Use lapars not gengar
UA-cam has me shadow banned for 5 years 🚫 time to switch platform
Jesus Christ don’t spend 100 dollars on coins for this old game.
These new raids reminds me trying to teach a dog a new trick. Keep jumping through hoops little trainer you lol. The game is fine without these.
What is the point of giving us a counter guide after most of the world has completed this event??
It will still show up at Points under this week
@ yeah for sure but players like myself that want to go harder on the Max Monday need the information earlier not after we played the Max Monday
Wbts
Zapdos was a breeze. The double excadrill wall and lapras in the back KO’d zapdos before a third gmax turn. (I got 2 shinies back to back✨)
Solo?
Wowwwww, I just bought the 100$ coin thing like 2 days ago too smh
If you buy the 99 bundle you will never go back to 0 poke coins again
