>>44228653desu the first thing you should do is get these 4 pokemon.
89+ Metagross with CD move
89+ Magnezone
89+ Venusaur with CD move
UL Swampert with CD move, or as big as you can find
Those 4 pokemon are used in about 80% of all raids and can easily solo rockets/leaders.
Good optional pokemon are:
Machamp with Cross chop for shield beating
Excadrill for a cheap and solid ground attacker
Rhyhorn for the CD move at the end of the year
Crandios for those pesky flying types
Everything else will fall into place once you get those on your team. Don't worry about anything else until you get those.
I'm sure others will shit on my thoughts but hey, it's worked out for me so far.
