Thunder Shock/Brick Break Thundurus-I Duo Raid, Partly Cloudy Weather, Mega Rayquaza Only

Thundurus-Incarnate has returned to the Legendary Raid in Season: Shared Skies. Similar to other members in Force of Nature, Thundurus-Incarnate didn't receive any exclusive move in this rotation.

In last year, Mega Gengar had defeated Thundurus-Incarnate as Duo Raid despite unable to hit it super effectively. Since then, Mega Rayquaza has been released as far superior neutral damage raid counter. So, is Mega Rayquaza capable to defeat Thundurus-Incarnate as Duo Raid? We will figure that out this time.

Since Dragon Ascent is resisted by Thundurus-Incarnate, Mega Rayquaza would prefer using Outrage this time. Out of Thundurus-Incarnate charged moves, Brick Break pose the least threat to it, so Mega Rayquaza will challenge Thunder Shock/Brick Break Thundurus-Incarnate as Duo Raid this time.

Since Brick Break has low base power and being a 3-bar moves, Mega Rayquaza would prefer to just attack, which means this is a no dodging Duo Raid. Even without hitting Thundurus super-effectively, they still managed to defeat it with over a minute left.

Pokemon used:
CP 6458 Mega Rayquaza - Lv50 15/15/15 Dragon Tail/Outrage

Electric-type was the very first type we have analysed since Party Power released. Similar to Fighting/Rock type, the original analysis was rather incomplete and used different simulation setting to later ones. So, we will analyse Electric-type again this time. The raid simulation used for this analysis is Waterfall/Thunder Primal Kyogre, with 10% friendship bonus and Primal Kyogre's Primal Boost.

Electric-type is very similar to Fire-type, with a lot competent raid attackers. Even more interesting, the Pokemon themselves doesn't experience a large ranking shift in Party Power, again. However, if you look more carefully, the moveset they prefer are shifted. Once again, one-bar move are favored, with the exception of Thunder struggles to outperform Wild Charge. The non-STAB attackers like Porygon-Z and Genesect once again shows up, where Genesect is lacking behind a little bit.

Arceus test:

Shadow Zapdos
1307 damage, 23.13 DPS
