 Hello friends, welcome back to the channel. In today's video, we're going to be going over some of the best supporting Pokemon builds that you can take into the seven star Terrarium event for Del Fox that will be landing later this week. We've already covered a solo builds video on the channel for some of the best options that you can take in if you're not going online. If you want to do this in your game yourself, but we have had a lot of requests recently asking for a video like this. So I thought something a little bit different if it is received well by all of you. It's something that we can continue doing in the future. So supporting builds are a slightly different to what your solo builds would be. Solo builds are primarily things that can go into the raid, then take, sponge up a lot of damage, set themselves up and also reduce the stats on the opposing Pokemon to make it really quick to kind of go through these raids and form for the high cost items. Make them super easy to do by yourself in your game. But obviously on the other side of that, you do have this online facility where you can go online, join players online. But it is slightly different because there is a lot more emphasis on all of your partnering players not getting knocked out because every time they get knocked out, then chunks get taken off the raid timer. So having Pokemon that can support in various different roles against these big threatening Pokemon are very helpful. And that's what we're going to try and cover in today's video. Pokemon that you can specifically take in with your friends online or random as online and do pretty well against this Delphox in a variety of different situations. So before we get into the video itself, we'll take a quick overview of Delphox. This is the expected set that I see the Delphox kind of coming in with when it goes live later this week. Just to bear in mind, its HP multiplier is times 30. So at level 100, this is the HP stat that you're looking at that you're going to have to knock out. Delphox will have more than likely its magician hidden ability here, which will steal your held items. So that's something as well. You're going to have to bear in mind going into this raid, aera fairy typing, and it has a pretty decent base speed stat. So we'll be pretty speedy compared to some of the previous raids that we've went up against. Now the expected set that I kind of think Delphox will run is something along the lines of this. I'll have a fire stab obviously to play off that base fire typing that it does have. So overheat is probably most powerful attack that it does get access to and a bit like the Charizard raid that we had very early on in the games. It could play on that where it launches that off turn 1 and then resets its stat drops after that. But something you're going to have to keep an eye out for. It could have something like heat wave or flamethrower as well. It's going to have a psychic move because it is part of psyching as it's base typing. So psychic or side shock are definitely strong options that it can play off. Dazzling Gleam is a no-brainer. It's definitely going to have that. It is its only big fairy type attacking move. So unless it's gone off terror blast for like once it's definitely going to have Dazzling Gleam. And then coverage options. It does have solar beam. So could have that a grass type coverage. It could play off that if it has something like sunny day or hex as well. If it has something like willow isp that can double the damage and give it ghost type coverage as well. It's set up options that it does have access to magic room that nullifies the ability of all held items for five turns. So that could be something that it plays into alongside that magician ability, you know, wizard, which is a theme that it does have kind of going on. That would make sense. It does have charm. So it can reduce the attacks that on your side of the field by two stages and it has nasty plot as well. Something that I think a lot of us need to watch out for and something probably quite likely that the Del Fox will have boosting its special attack by two stages every time it uses it. So you could see it being pretty threatening quite quickly. If it nasty plots on that turn zero before the actual raid begins and then it kind of can launch off big powerful dazzling gleams, psychics, overheats, etc. So it can be pretty, pretty dangerous Pokemon. And I think with its typing fairy, you want to bring steel types against it. It's got fire coverage for those. You want to bring poison types against it. It's got the psychic coverage for those. So it's a really difficult Pokemon to bring in unlike previous seven star turret events where everyone kind of thinks, Oh, well, an eyelid will be great going into this one. I really don't think an eyelid is going to be that effective into the Del Fox raid because it's going to be hit by those fairy types. Pretty hard and the psychic typing as well is going to hit the the annihilator for good damage. So I don't think it's going to be as effective as maybe some previous seven star turrets and a lot of emphasis, I think falls on some supporting Pokemon, especially going into this one. So as this is just a kind of a trial sort of video, I haven't actually put these builds together in my game. I've put them together in the showdown builder so we can go through each one independently here, but we're going to start off with Hissui and Gudra. So Hissui and Gudra is a steel and dragon typing. It has good typing. It has amazing defenses as well. We've went for the steel terror typing on it. It is level 100. Of course, left over as the item of choice and we went for the shell armor ability. SAP SIPA GUI aren't really that useful in this one. GUI could be useful to reduce the speed stat, but overall I think shell armor and just making sure that you don't affected by critical hits throughout the game is probably more beneficial. So we've went for rain dance because I think one of the big things that you need to keep an eye out for with Hissui and Gudra is that it does have that steel typing and the dragon typing. So fire type attacks are going to be neutral against it and the fairy type attacks are going to be neutral against it. So they're the two big things that you're going to have to worry out for, but it does have some really good options for supporting. You can reduce the power of those fire type attacks with the rain dance. You've got life due to support you and partnering Pokemon that you've gone into the raid with and asset spray is a huge move that you can use to reduce the special defense on the Del Fox and it hits through the shield as well. So that's really nice and then your main attacking option for yourself is going to be flash cannon to kind of play off that asset spray. But with leftovers, you've got nice recovery there alongside the life due and the rain dance should keep you pretty protected throughout the raid. So if we hop over and we can have a quick look at some damage calculations here, you can see that the Hissui and Gudra even in the rain does take things like fire blast pretty well. So fire blast off. We change that to overheat. You can see it is going to be able to take these big powerful fire type attacks pretty well. So we'll be getting like aid hit kill against like an overheat in the rain. Just make sure that the rain is there. If the rain is not up, you will be taking a bit more damage. So just be aware of that. But once your rain dances up, you're going to be in a really good position. Your flash cannons doing good damage to this Del Fox as well. And of course, if you can get the minus six, if you can get three asset sprays off, you're going to be doing quite a bit of damage, especially after you tracelize as well, you're going to be doing a significant chunk of damage. So 300 to 400% and for a supporting Pokemon, I feel like that's not too shabby at all. You've got the shell armor on there and then an EV spread for this particular Goudre is going to be 252 HP with 252 special defense and a calm nature on there. Just boosting that special defensive stat even further. And you can see sky high special defensive stat on the Goudre, which makes it really good going into this one. And I think with the offensive steel type attack that you've got on there, it really does have the ability to support partnering Pokemon with the rain dance, the life due, the asset spray and also have a nice offensive option to it as well. So really good option going into this raid, especially if you are going online. Hissui and Goudre are going to be good. Just got to keep an eye out for things like the overheat, which can be a little bit problematic. So keeping the rain up on the field. If you've got this Pokemon out, it's going to be quite important for prolonging its longevity on the field. Now the next Pokemon is going to be a lowland muck. And I do feel like this is a really nice option. It's obviously dark and poison. So with that dark typing, it does have the immunity to psyche typing. So it kind of takes that weakness away from its poison type in as well. And it does have the ability to reduce the defensive stats on the Delphox. It's got screech. This particular set here is for something if you want to partner it up with more physical attackers, but you can also go with asset spray on the lowland muck as well. It does get access to both asset spray and screech. But this for this particular build, I thought would be nice to kind of mix things up and have something that reduces that defensive stat, not only always relying on the special defensive stat that we're kind of concentrating on against this raid. So snarl is a nice option on the lowland muck. For good reason, it's going to reduce the special attacking stat on the Delphox by one stage every time you use it. It hits through the shield as well. So if we do see the Delphox with something like nasty plot, we can mitigate that through the snarls to further support, reduces attack power and support partner in Pokemon. Screech is the option that we're choosing at the start of the raid. Of course, if the shield goes up, you're not going to be able to screech it any longer, but it can reduce the defensive stat by two stages on the Delphox, which is going to be quite important, especially if you are pairing it up with more physical attackers. Like I mentioned earlier, alternatively, you can go with asset spray in this slot, which will support more primarily special attack in Pokemon, reducing the special defense by two stages. Taunt is a nice option on here. You can interchange this for something like knockoff that can play into that magician ability. If it does start stealing items off you or partnering Pokemon, the knockoff might be a nice option to have to get rid of the item on that Delphox, but you're probably going to end up having no items on the field at all. And it might even be when we go into this raid preferable to have no item on your Pokemon, so you're not giving the Delphox any benefit from any held item at all if it is playing off that magician ability. But taunt otherwise a very good option to go for like turn one to shut down the option on the Delphox, going for anything like sunny day and willowisp, nasty plot, any of those setting supporting moves that it has access to. So we'll shut that option down on the Delphox pretty quickly and a decent option there. And then gunk shot is the main attacking option, 120 base power poison type attack. And then you combine that with the screech you're going to be doing a good amount of damage so can play a nice supporting role as well as being a more offensive option as well. And we went for the poison teratiping on this one. I think you're just going to have to play it quite coy when you go for the terastalization with the Alolan muck because you want to make sure that the Delphox's special attack is reduced to a point where the psychic isn't going to be picking up a knockout or huge damage on two once you do terastalize to take advantage of the gunk shot that extra power on it. So just make sure you play with it a little bit carefully and maybe it's more preferable in these matches. If you are taking Alolan muck in is more of a supportive Pokemon then not to terastalize at all. So you keep that immunity to the psychic typing and then you have that neutrality to Dazzling Gleam because obviously with the poison typing you resist the fairy types but the dog typing is weak to its own neutral attack from that. And of course I think as well having something like Rain Dance as another supporting Pokemon on your team is just going to help the Alolan muck even more because those fire type attacks are still going to be hitting pretty hard and then when you look at some of the calculations here you can see on the muck. It does take things pretty well from the Delphox but at the same time you have to be a little bit careful if the rain isn't up like here the fire blast or let's say the overheat will be doing a good amount of damage to you every turn. So you're going to be looking at a three hit KO if the rain isn't up whereas if the rains up you're in a much better position and every time that the Delphox uses the overheat of course if that is the option does reduce its special attack by two stages and if you combine that with something like the snarl you're going to be sitting in a really nice position going forward. The EV spread on the muck is going to be 252 HP, 252 special defense, 4 in attack and a careful nature as well. So that's the EV spread on this one. Shell Belt as the item of choice just to give you a line of recovery could go for something like leftovers on it as well. Poison Terror type level 100 but that is the Alola Muck and I do think a nice option in specific situations and it has that flexibility between the screech and the acid spray. So it can support both physical and special attackers at the same time. Next up is a hot topic and it is Heatran and I do like Heatran going into this raid because it has all the resistances that you need going into Delphox obviously with the steel typing it resists the sidekick it resists the fairy well it's got 4 times resist to fairy with the fire and the steel and it has that flash fire ability as well which is really important for making sure that its steel typing doesn't get affected by any fire type attacks that can come out from the Delphox because you're going to be immune to fire type attacks with flash fire and it's going to boost your fire type attacks as well. We've went for a steel terror typing on it. Shell Belt is the item choice for a line of recovery. We've got the move set of Metal Sound that's going to reduce the special defense on the Delphox by two stages every time you use it. So really good supporting Pokémon for other special attacking Pokémon that you've got partnering up with you. We've got Taunt as well plays a little bit like that a lot of luck to stop set up on the Delphox the side of the field and then Flash Cannon is going to be your big option there. Now for the fourth choice I couldn't really pick anything you could go Steel Beam if you want a big powerful attacking option if you are lacking some power at the end of the raid that could be an option or you could just go with something like Heat Wave or Flamethrower or even over heat of your own because it is going to do neutral damage to the Delphox nonetheless. The big problem I've got with the Heatran in particular is that it's just got no way to boost its own stats. So it would be so good. It would be the best raid Pokémon to go in solo to support with if it had something like Carmine or if it had something like Nasty Plot but it doesn't have access to any of those and really you're kind of lost for a choice of a fourth move on this one. I have seen an option on here of Sleep Talk and Rest as well that you could go with around the Metal Sound the Flash Cannon and that is a nice supporting option because you've got the longevity with the rest that you can use. Then Sleep Talk allows you to use Metal Sound or Flash Cannon. The only problem with the Metal Sound is that you have got to consider that when the shield goes up you're not going to be able to utilize that move. So that is a move that you're going to have to use early on in the raid and the same thing with taunt as well. It doesn't get access to help in hand. So it's very limited on its actual supporting options when the shield goes up and you have to really take advantage of these options very early on in the raid and depending how the Delphox raid actually sets up we don't know until the raid goes live whether or not the shield is going to go up earlier if it's going to go mid or kind of late into the raid. So he's trying going to be really good regardless because of its defensive typing it is going to be able to take a bunch of attacks off the Delphox so easily like you look at these defensive tabs it takes a psychic psychic is going to be possibly the worst move ever in the damage calculator and then you've got Dazzling Gleam as well which is even even worse. It's not going to be affected by fire blast overheat or anything like that and your flash cannons are going to be doing decent damage to it and I mean if you can get those Metal Sounds out and get three of them off get it down to minus six you're going to be doing considerable damage with the flash cannons from the Heatran so it is a very good option it gives you a lot of longevity on the field the only problem is I feel like it's not got very many good other supporting options for partnering Pokémon and it hasn't got a way to kind of expedite its own special attack any further outside of just the Metal Sound which is really reliant on when that shield goes up but nonetheless a good option which is not something I would run too straight away to say this is the Pokémon for this particular raid and for those reasons that we've covered but level 100 steel terra-typing flash fires the ability shell bell the item like I say you can change it up for leftovers if you'd like EV spread is 252 special attack 252 special defense with a calm nature and four attack in a special attack and that is the Heatran next up it is a Pokémon that we featured in our solo builds and I really do feel like Armarouche is one of the best Pokémon to take into this event either if you want it as a solo build or even as a supporting option as well it's got such good utility tools to really disrupt the Delphox set upon it as well and do some good significant damage to it even though you're not going to be hitting it for primarily like super effective damage with the move choices that you've got on the Armarouche but level 100 as always psychic terra-typing shell bell as the item of choice flash fire as the ability EV spread we have 252 HP 252 special defense with a calm nature that four should be not in defense but in special attack so that is the EV spread and of course all the EV spreads the builds will be down in the description if you'd like to take a closer look at them after the video the move set that we've got on the Armarouche clear smog acid spray calm mind and psychic now calm mind can be changed out for something like light screen if you would prefer to have it there but if you want to have a more supportive and kind of offensive mode to Armarouche when you're going in online with it as a supporting Pokemon as well then calm mind works pretty nicely with this particular Pokemon now the reason why I really like Armarouche a lot in this raid is it resists the fairy type attacks that come out from the the Delphox has a complete immunity to all the fire type attacks with the flash fire because of its psychic typing as well it resists the psychic type attacks now the things you'd have to watch out for of course if it does have something like hex that could be a problem but otherwise Armarouche is going to be a really solid option for pretty much any role that you want to go in against this Delphox with later this week the clear smog is brilliant we've already mentioned things like nasty plot that the Delphox could have access to clear smog is going to work through the screen and it's going to remove any stat boosts to that Delphox that it's got it will remove any stat drops as well so that's something you have to bear in mind but I mean if it's got three nasty plots off somehow and it's plus six special attack and you've got minus six special defense on it through the acid sprays it's worth removing those special attack boosts just to start using the acid sprays again it's a really good utility move and grateful supporting partnering Pokemon especially online raids as well acid spray we've already mentioned it reduces the special defense by two stages every time you use it onto the target Pokemon and then calm mind boosts your special attack and special defense one stage every time you use it in sidekick you could go with something like expanding force if you've got a partnering Pokemon with it has access to psychic terrain but I think you're boosting the Delphox's attack power as well because it's more than likely gonna have psychic or side shock so you don't really want to be giving it any additional boost this is the reason why we went for psychic and it also has the benefit of dropping the special defensive stat by one stage 10% of the time when you use it so it's got that added effect to it if you haven't been able to get all three acid sprays off and the nice thing about armor Rouge as well is it sprays and then you're pretty much ready to tracelize right and then just start checking out those big powerful psychics onto a minus six special defense Delphox so you're gonna be hitting it very hard and you the resist that you've got with armor Rouge are just phenomenal I think really one of the best choices that you can take in this weekend and personally something that I'll be definitely using I mean you can look at the damage you've got no damage coming out from any fire type attacks the psychic does more than the dazzling gleam which says a lot of course so that is still a six hit kill and if you have got yourself like a calm mind of then that's gonna be reduced even further so you've got the clear smog to keep in check any stat boosts from this Delphox so throughout the raid if it does get to plus six you can remove that quite quickly and negate any of those nasty pop boosts and then with the EV spread of 252 HP 252 special defense in the calm nature you're gonna be soaking up these attacks pretty well to also set up yourself and do some significant damage in the process so on Marush like I say I'm kind of singing its praises because I do just feel like it's such a good option this coming weekend right next up is Chris Celia it is available now through Pokemon home and it has access to some really good supporting options so level 100 we've went for a psychic teratiping on it the item choice is like clear ability is levitate we've got 252 to HP 252 to special defense with a calm nature to that defense and put it into special attack the moveset that we've got is Luna blessing light screen rain dance and psychic and through all of these options here you've got great supporting options for the Chris Celia it's naturally very bulky so it's going to be able to kind of tank a lot of hits from the Del Fox and support partnering Pokemon as well as kind of reduce the attack power from the Del Fox as well with the options that we've got so Luna blessing a great option because it heals you and quarter every time you use it as well as their status conditions which is really nice especially if we see something like Willow Wisp on there as well with players off maybe hex but you know all in all Luna blessing a really great supporting option on the Chris Celia light screen is going to be the main thing that we're going to be going for Del Fox going to primarily going to be a special attack in Pokemon there's no way it's going to have physical type attacks because it's got no way of really doing any damage to you and the raid would be pretty useless otherwise so light screen with the light clear and it extends the amount of time that the light screen can stay on the field so rather than five turns it'll stay on this on the field for eight turns so once you've set that up with the light clear hopefully you can get that off turn one then you've got eight turns of light screen which is just going to really support the rest of the team super well for the rest of the battle and then you've got rain dance as well which is going to reduce the power of those fire type attacks that can be quite on the del fox to kind of further boost the attack power of those and then psychic is just going to be an option for us to have some offensive pressure it's not going to be doing a lot but you're going to be able to get some chip damage off onto the del fox every turn that you use it and you can have a look at some of the damage calculations here from the del fox onto the chrysalion you're going to see that it is able behind the light screen just to soak up these attacks so so well it's not taking any damage from anything especially if you've got the the rain up you've got that light screen up you're going to have like well I mean it's not even going to be a conversation about taking you down especially with the lunar blessing where you're going to be able to just heal off any damage coming out the psychic doing five to six percent damage doesn't glean doing like nine to eleven and even if it does get carried away with those plus six like nasty plots it's got like three taking things pretty comfortably there as well and hopefully you've got a partnering to have something like clear smoke to get rid of those boosts but you're still not going to be like one hit here or two hit here by anything as long as you've got the light screen the rain up even if it does get to the point where it is carried away but hopefully you've got some factors to kind of help mitigate against that setup if that is an option on it and then the final Pokemon that we're going to cover in today's video is Pelopai I do feel like this one is a little bit of a sleeper pick me something that we haven't really discussed so far is the option of wide guard and I think in this particular terraried it's going to be very very good for the reason is that Delphox only has access to one big fairy type attack and that's doesn't gleam and it is a spread type attack so it hits everything on the opposite side of the field now there the thing with wide guard is you can use that and it will block any spread type attacks so doesn't gleam won't affect any of you you or your partnering Pokemon when it is used as long as you use and why God your whole team is protected so I think in a raid situation why God could be so useful especially helping you kind of set up mitigate any big damage coming out especially if you're running Pokemon that are either hit neutrally by fairy type attacks or weak to fairy type attacks I hope I could play a massive supporter for all in these raids and for example I've got this kind of build here and this is just to say if you've got three friends that you can go online with put this build together and try it because I think the Pellipa with the why God protects the Hissui and Goudre so well the big thing that Hissui and Goudre has to worry about is the dazzling gleam and also any fire type attacks but with the drizzle you don't need to worry about the fire type attacks and then the dazzling gleam it's going to be blocked by the the why God and then you can just go for like turn one why God acid spray with everything get it down to minus six straight away and then go for like a why God and then attack it with your other two Hissui and Goudre and you're going to be able to kind of cut through very quickly. So that was just one quick idea I had with the this particular Pellipa but I do feel there's a lot of value in why God the interesting thing is as well is armor Rouge gets access to why God so this could be something that you could play on armor Rouge with the acid spray alongside it if it is something that you prefer to do to have that supporting option to really cut out any possibility of dazzling gleam being an option for the Del Fox throughout the raid the other options that we've got on the Pellipa helping hand aqua ring you can change that for Rouge if you like I just feel like aqua ring is one of those options that you can set up at the start of the the Terrarid and then just let it kind of tick up recovery throughout especially when you pair it up nicely with the leftovers you've got that why God that you might be utilizing quite a lot throughout the Terrarid so the leftovers recovery stacked up with the aqua ring make sure that the Pellipa is going to be able to stay in a healthy position for the majority of the raid and then Hurricane is going to be the big damaging attack on there that plays off the rain because it's 100% accurate it has the chance to confuse as well the target Pokemon and then we have EV spread of 252 HP 252 special defense with a calm nature and again get rid of that fawn defense too much of a habit and put it into special attack because it's going to be more useful there anyway but overall but I don't really see you really terastalizing the Pellipa and it's not going to be playing a huge role you could go for something like a flying a Terotype on there if you'd prefer to and but all in all I think the Pellipa with that why God the helping hand and you know these support options are going to be very good going into this raid in particular as a supporting Pokemon so they are all the builds we're going to cover in today's video I hope you find them useful let me know what your thoughts on these builds and what your thoughts are on this specific sort of video because normally we concentrate more on our solo builds rather than our supporting builds but it is a big part of the Terrarium events obviously a lot of you like to go online and play maybe a bit more supportive with friends and things like that and hopefully these Pokemon give you other options outside of the the majority of things that we cover here on the channel which are more centered around solo builds and might inspire some ideas for you to go in and build combinations of Pokemon you know like we did with the Pellephe with that wide guard and the Hissui and Goudre you can even play off something like that with the Alolan muck as well where you've got the Alolan mucks protected by the wide guard because primarily going to be worried about the dazzling gleam over anything else Overquill is another option as well that dark and poison typing you could play into and take advantage of the wide guard in this different situation so let me know if you've got any supporting options that you've got in mind that you'd be taking into this Terrarium event and what your thoughts are on all of the builds that we feature in today's video like I say if we get a good response from this video it's something that will continue doing for future seven star Terrarium going forward but I did want to throw this out because we have had a lot of people requesting this on the channel recently and thank you so much for all of those requests as well so hope if you have requested it you've found this useful thank you so much for tuning in friends drop a like if you have found it useful do subscribe to the channel and I'll see you all in another video very soon so until then friends take care of yourselves and bye bye
