ITT: Sleeper raid mons

Iron Moth is so fucking good for fairy raids (depending what the base mon was). I use:

Iron Moth @ Metronome
Tera type: Poison
-Acid Spray
-Sludge Wave
-Energy Ball/Filler move
-Fiery Dance

Most matches can be won by doing nothing but spamming acid spray and healing when appropriate.

>tfw noivern doesn't do enough damage and by the time the tera orb would be charged, the raid is over
>tfw lurantis' sp attack boosts are nullified by the raidboss and being a grass stab means it's not useful against a ton of Pokemon
>just look like a dipshit most of the time
I guess I'll go back to raidcat...

Arboliva

Unkillable with Seed Sower and drains, solos even against less than stellar match ups (example: bulky mon with SE moves vs grass, with tera that takes base effectiveness from grass moves; example: SE high damage Mon, with tera weak to grass w/ leech seed could likely take high SE dmg with nonweak tera too)
252 hp 252 spatk
Modest
Giga Drain
Energy Ball
Strength Sap/leech seed(if more passive healing needed, persists through death and cleanse)
Safeguard/leech seed(if no direct status effect moves)
hold lum berry if you want when outsped turn 1 before setting SG, mostly run with covert cloak for everything.

Take the olive pill today.

For solo shit I just want to clear out it's Toxic Boost Zangoose with Facade after a Belly Drum. Clears most without issue. Lil dude can't take a hit, though

Iron Moth is not very bulky, so you want to outrun the boss and have it fight primarily special attackers or things it resists, and the speed can get you an extra hit before dying.

outside of seven-star raids, raid mons are not fought at level 100 and as such have much lower speed.
speed EVs are a total waste on something as fast as iron moth, even slow mons like iron hands still outrun the majority of raid mons.

This is just blatantly untrue. I have a level 100 iron hands with 0 speed investment (capped speed IV) and basically every 6 star raid I'm outsped.

Flutter Mane is like the opposite of sleeper but as long as it doesn't have to worry about super-effective criticals it can solo pretty much every 6*

My boi bellibolt
Acid spray like you said, parabolic charge to heal up (+ you get this powered up after each hit thanks to the ability, healing even more), fat as fuck, electric terrain to support any future paradox and itself, since you're just acid spraying from the start you can tera super quickly
Did plenty of 6 stars with him, if you need a special attacker, I would recommend

Tox resists a ton of types and can Para and stat-drop with through Raid shields with Nuzzle and Acid Spray. Hex with Para lets it contribute better to Ghost raids too.

The idea with Teapot is Skill Swap Weak Armor turn one, then Foul Play as you and your team reduce the boss' Def to shreds with every attack. Screens whenever you need it.

A shame Grafaiai's Doodle can't target teammates for their ability. Would have been another fun ability gimmick to give every teammate Azumarill's Huge Power

The cat only work for multiplayer. Annihilape is a much better pokemon for solo, as well as many other picks that have better matchup vs certain pokemon + tera type combos. The cat is a speedrun multiplayer strategy, and even then it isn't absolutely perfect. No harm on seeking alternative options.

Espathra @ Mirror Herb/Covert Cloak
Opportunist/Speed Boost
Tera: Psychic
-Lumina Crash
-Dazzling Gleam
-Roost/Calm Mind
-Filler/Stored Power
Lumina Crash is a 80BP stab move that also lowers the target's sp.def by 2 stages it's insane. Any sp.atk users on your team will love you. You also have the usual calm mind stored power set, but beware for the raid to take away your boosts. Clear Amulet doesn't work. Opportunist + Mirror Herb for a one-time double boost when the raidmon uses boosting moves, Covert Cloak for things like nuzzle. Most of the time you'll be spamming Lumina Crash. Biggest con is it's somewhat frail, so look out for super effective moves.
