My favorite Paradox Pokémon:

*Hisuian Samurott*

[elimitchell]

After about 2hrs of attempts i finally got a good party of randoms and we had the perfect turn one. Some one hit brickbreak, someone used sunny day, i used light screen, and someone used a defense cheer. We beat it in 5 turns because someone was using acid spray iron moth and someone was using sp atk Lucario. It was glorious genuinely hope those people have great lives

[kingsean]

Legends know this is going to have a new title.

[matthewrosen]

I noticed you missed something from your NPC ally Pokémon that made a difference; you had Paldean Taurus, whose Raging Bull removed Aurora Veil.

[harrisonjones]

For soloing, this is actually a good time to have Arboliva as an NPC teammate. Her Seed Sower is helpful to nullify the electric terrain and negating Iron Bundle's Quark Drive boost; plus, some residual healing is nice too.

[MagnezoneSH]

Little tip for the ones who don’t have enough Tera Steel Shards or have trouble finding a new Ghimmigoul :
In the DLC you can trade one Ghimmigoul with the Steel Tera Type with the History Teacher! (You know, that one lady who gives you access to the Ruins Legendaries)

[woronowyczst]

Iron Crown works fine, calm mind twice, tanks Hydro Pump pretty well. Use either Iron Crown ls signature move or flash Cannon and hope for a SDef drop. After it resets your stats, do another 2 calm minds. Plus, you get the attack buff if it does electric terrain. 252 in HP 252 in Special Attack the rest in Sdef. Done with half the timer left. Good luck, everyone. Keep up the amazing content, Austin

[King_Kitsune]

I've been seeing some decent success in online raids with Iron Moth as well, sunny day to block snow and weaken hydro pump, drop it's special attack and special defense with struggle bug and acid spray, then firey dance for damage, has been working pretty well for me at least

[Skelebro]

I feel as though the Lucario gift may have been a hint at what build we should strive for. I also liked the idea of removing the weather to end blizzard and aurora vail.

Iron Crown solos, little to no luck required (all you have to do is not get crit):

Iron Crown @ Shell Bell
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Modest Nature
-Tachyon Cutter
-Brick Break
-Calm Mind
-Metal Sound

Calm Mind two or three times, then Brick Break to get rid of the Aurora Veil. If you can get a Metal Sound in before the shield goes up, bonus. After that you should be fine to spam Tachyon Cutter. You may need to heal cheer once or twice while setting up. Magearna and Arceus-Steel can run the same set (with a different steel move, obviously).

I've also heard that Ice Scales Frosmoth with Quiver Dance, Struggle Bug, and Bug Buzz works great. Give it max Special Attack and max Special Defense, then go to town.

[twee]

Solo'd with calm mind, light screen Magearna.
HP and SpAtk EV's maxed out. Soul Heart ability is perfect for solo clears since allies die constantly and cause a special atk increase. Might find a better build using Magearna, but this worked for me.
Good Luck on Raid everyone ❤

[mistercrusher]

Due to its base 114 defense, the defense boost from snow, and Aurora Veil, it would be extremely bulky on the physical side.

[fnShaft]

I used a Flutter Mane to beat this one, the same flutter mane from the 7-star Charizard farm video you put out last year. SpA+SpD build, with Draining Kiss, Moonblast, Calm Mind; I did beat it somewhat comfortably though Iron Bundle's Blizzard did miss a few times, specially right when my Calm Minds got wiped which was crucial. I even got frozen once. It's very important to be at full health right when he wipes your buffs and activates the quark drive, if you can survive through that you'll be fine., Flutter mane is super tanky against special attacks with Draining kiss + 2 calm minds.

Edit: item I used was the booster energy, not a covert cloak

[giacomobongrazio]

I think that the combo Metal Sound + Nasty Plot + Steel Beam + Metal Coat is even easier and you don't need to Tera. Metal Sound until the shield is up, 2x Nasty Plot and then Steel Beam. I was able to break the shield like this. Then you'll probably die. 1x Metal Sound, 1x Nasty Plot, Steel Beam again and you're done.

[joshsommer]

I do feel as if Terapagos also has potential—it can take the first attack, and run a super effective attack and then yeah

[awesomebillion]

Here’s the way I soloed the raid (works great with healing support):
Terapagos (Tera Stellar)
Item: Shell Bell
252 HP / 252 Sp. Atk
- Calm Mind
- Aura Sphere
- Tera Starstorm (make it max PP)

Set up a couple of calm minds, use a couple of aura spheres until you Tera, then Tera Starstorm

[BPTK]

I was excited for a second thinking Hamurott was the Iron Bundle counter

[javiersavala]

I used my level 100 grimmsnarl I made for the iron leaves raid. It's Max hp, 100 attack, and 150 defense. I used these 4 moves light screen, thunderwave, misty terrain to counter quark drive, and spirit break to occasionally lower special attack.

[jjc]

I never thought this was going to be easy. Outside of pretty low Special Defense, Iron Bundle has extremely good stats.

[danielbraun]

Just in case nobody has done this yet, if you fly to the top of the glowing rainbow crystal in the BB academy after completing the DLC, their are 3 item on top to collect.

1. Gold bottle cap
2. Ability Patch
3. Stellar tera shards x50

I haven't seen this anywhere yet, so I just wanted to get the word out. Thanks!
