(No🗡️) Water Gun/Ice Beam Mega Slowbro Solo Raid, Partly Cloudy Weather

As stated in previous Mega Slowbro Solo Raid by Mega Sceptile, Mega Slowbro can be defeated as Solo Raid with Dawn Wings Necrozma, without relying on weather boost damage bonus or adventure effect.

Once again, Mega Slowbro is a defensive boss in Mega Tier, with only 188 attack stat. Mega Slowbro didn't learn any hard hitting moves either. With raid glitches being fixed, we would like to take as much damage as possible in order to earn more extra energy. However, even the hardest hitting move - Ice Beam, only deals 46 damage to Dawn Wings Necrozma, which translate to 23 energy.

With such a low energy gain, catch tanking becomes less effective. In the other hand, it means we also lose minimal energy from overcharging. So, we fallback to hot-swapping where each Dawn Wings Necrozma will stay in the field until they cannot take additional Ice Beam, and they will pass the baton to next member.

As you might have realized, Mega Sceptile is also in the team. In fact, it is the only viable catch tank against Mega Slowbro as it would take massive damage from Mega Slowbro and fight back with Frenzy Plant. In this battle, we try to use our only catch tank in the team carefully. We will let it switch in when a Dawn Wings Necrozma is nearly charged but they cannot take another Ice Beam. This arrangement minimize time loss from switching.

At last, the team barely defeated Mega Slowbro in last possible second. While we have mentioned the system will now wait until the last charged move hit, further testing from our fellow raid challenger ‪@xRage7243‬ suggests the raid timer only extended by 3 seconds.
