T3 Bite/Poison Fang Nidoqeen Solo Raid, Rainy Weather, Mega Gyarados Only no relobby

Text notification of charged move starts at the beginning when the boss used it (0.0s), that enables charged move with extremely early damage timing to be dodged. The text notification does not varies with different charged move, even when the boss is using Earthquake, the text would pop up at the same timing.

When this happens you would be really tempted to start swiping, or stop attacking until the yellow flash such that you can react to it as soon as possible. However, they are not optimal. For example, if the boss is using Earthquake, you can easily use around 5 Dragon breath before its damage window. If you chosen to stop using any moves and wait for damage window, it would cause a severe performance drop. This is the other reason why it would helps if you can tell the precise damage timing well without relying on yellow flash.

Unfortunately, there is no real tricks aiding you to determine how much fast moves/charged moves you can use before you would need to dodge, you have to keep on practising/dodging against different charged move, as well as checking website like Gamepress to learn the damage window of different moves such that you can tell how much fast moves you can sneak in before dodging.

Comment:

I honestly didn't expect this could be done in 2 attempts. I lose some time due to playing safe at the end to not chance for Aqua Tail is not strong enough to kill and being hit by subsequent move (that could be Poison Fang), since it would be really stupid to throw a raid with this level of difficulty by any chance.

In terms of raid setup it is very similar to Ice Punch Medicham. Bite only do minimum damage on Mega Gyarados while Poison Fang is spammy, such that the gain from dodging Bite is not significant enough to be worthwhile. While Aqua Tail is a really fast move (1.9s) and fit safely within boss global move cooldown. However, Poison Fang has a much faster damage window (0.9s) compared to Ice Punch in return.

Since it is a perfectly safe raid in terms of charged move cooldown, it is slightly easier than Medicham. However, having to dodge all Poison Fang consistently and at least semi-optimally for nearly 3 minutes is still a really hard challenge.
