 Hello friends, welcome back to the channel, the 7 Star Terrarium Event for M-Poleon is now live in Scholar and Violet, we're gonna go over all of the details as well as the best builds for soloing this with in your game. So running from the 2nd of February as of recording this video and running over this weekend until the 4th of February, the M-Poleon Terrarium Event is now live in Scholar and Violet. It will be returning the following weekend from the 9th until the 11th of February for its 2nd phase in Scholar and Violet. Here are the details that we're gonna see, it is gonna be an Ice Territide Pokemon, it's gonna be level 100, it will have its ability competitive which is its hidden ability and it will have the Might Yes Mark, the moves it's gonna have access to are Surf, Flash Cannon, Ice Beam, Grass Knot, Snowscape are its additional moves alongside Blizzard and Iron Defense and it will have a modest nature, no held item and can only be called once per save file. Now once you've caught the M-Poleon it will drop a variety of good high cost items including large XL candies, you're gonna get Calciums, lots of Ice Terror Shards, you're gonna get TMs and the Chance of an Ability Patch and Ability Capsules as well as Bottle Caps, PP Ups and other high cost items. So it's a good raid to run through and farm for the items while the event is running like I say it will be running from the 2nd of February as of recording this video until the 4th for its 1st phase and returning on the 9th of February and running until the 11th for its 2nd phase before it goes away from Scarlet and Violet altogether. Now to access this event in your game you're gonna need to come to your Poker Portal, make sure you are online when you do this and then come down to Mystery Gifts and then check Poker Portal News. This will update all of the dens in Paldea. Now this event will only appear in Paldea on your maps if you have the DLC, don't try looking for it in Kidakami or in the Terrarium in the Blueberry Academy it will only appear there. So once you've found the den you're gonna head over to it and we'll go over the builds that we're gonna cover in today's video. So the first build is gonna be Mew. So Mew is gonna be a really good option. I realize that it is a mythical, it isn't something that everyone has available. It was a Mystery Gift Pokemon during the Mew 2-7 star turret so if you manage to get one during that event then great you've got one in game but we have got an alternative build if you haven't got a Mew but Mew is gonna be probably the quickest build to run through the Emporion with. So you want to have Mew at level 100, you want to make sure that you have hyper trained all of its IVs with bottle caps, make sure they're all set to 31. Its terror typing is gonna be fighting, it's gonna have the held item of a Shellbell and it will have the move set of Acid Spray, Nasty Plots, Kill Swap and Aura Sphere. The EV spread is gonna be 252 EVs in Special Attack and 252 EVs in Special Defense and it will have a modest nature with those remaining 6 EVs put into HP and that's gonna be the Mew build. Next up we're gonna have for those of you that don't have access to Mew, a Pokemon that everyone in Skull and Violet has access to and that is gonna be Vaporeon. It will have the fire terror typing, again gonna be set to level 100. Make sure you do hyper train all of those IVs so they're set to 31. It will have the held item of a Shellbell so it's got a line of recovery throughout the raid. The ability is the big important thing on the Vaporeon, it will have the water absorber ability, the move set is gonna be Sunny Day, Calm Mind, Haze and Weather Ball. Now Weather Ball is a TM that you're gonna need access to as well. Haze is a level-up move, Calm Mind is a TM as well as Sunny Day. EV spread for this Vaporeon is gonna be 252 EVs in Special Attack, 252 EVs in Special Defense with a modest nature again and there's six remaining EVs put into HP. So the first thing you're gonna want to look for in the raid if you're coming in with the Vaporeon or the Mew or any other Pokemon is gonna be looking at the partner Pokemon. If you come into the raid and you see an Intimidator as your partnering Pokemon, probably best just to run from the raid and then we enter it trying to get different partnering Pokemon to the raid with Impoleon because this Intimidator as you're gonna see here from the Starrafter is gonna activate the competitive ability on the Impoleon and that's something that we don't want to have to contest with throughout the raid. It's gonna boost its special attack by two stages every time and it does take a stat drop and that's not something that we want to deal with because it will be hitting a lot harder throughout the raid than we really wanted to. At this point it's best here because the Starrafter you can see has been knocked out. It's gonna come onto the field again. It's gonna activate the competitive ability once again and if we do take a look at the Impoleon it's plus four at the start of the battle. We haven't even made a move yet so like I said in these situations it's best just to run away from the raid and re-enter it to try and get better partnering Pokemon. Okay so we've got no Intimidators on our side of the field partnering us so we're kind of good to progress here in this raid. Now turns here you're gonna see the Snowscape set up from the Impoleon. It's gonna summon the hail to the field for five turns and then it's gonna fire off a Blizzard as well. This is where the RNG can kind of catch you out a little bit where it can freeze you this turn. It does worth just resetting the raid and coming back into it but we get through it fine. Turn one normally is gonna look like this where we go for a sunny day and overwrite that Snowscape, take the hail away from the field and get the Sun onto the field and we are gonna take Grass Nuts from the Impoleon for these next few turns but what we're gonna concentrate on is just chasing the fact of being able to tracelize. So turn two gonna lock in with the Weatherball just start firing that off. It's also gonna heal us with our Shellbell item as well so it keeps us pretty healthy going forward. The thing that you need to keep an eye out for is the Impoleon stats. Make sure that it's not getting any competitive boost because your partnering Pokemon can kind of sneak in attacks that might lure the stats on the Impoleon making that competitive boost active and it will be hitting a lot harder so that will affect your ability in this early stage of the game to be able to kind of survive to get to the point to be able to tracelize because it is gonna rely on those Grass Nuts to do big super effective damage to you so if it has gotten a competitive boost at all, if it's taking any stat drops, get a plus two boost to its special attack those attacks are gonna hit a lot harder but basically like we're doing these next three turns after you've set the sunny day up is just clicking the Weatherball button. Basically what that does is the Sun on the field means Weatherball is a fire type attack which is great exactly what we want. Now you're gonna see the shield set up pretty early on from the Impoleon here and now we're waiting on it nullifying the stat changes and abilities on our side of the field. Now once you've seen that you're gonna be free to start calm minding. Now we're in a position to tracelize. I'm gonna click in with that calm mind. We do need to keep an eye on the Sun on the field as well so we to use Weatherball we're gonna need the Sun in effect so that's gonna take a turn to set up. This is why the Impoleon might be a bit slower than some of the other options that we have like the Mu but it is very consistent. Once you are tracelized first phase of this raid is kind of done and you're gonna be able to close this out. You're not gonna be taking very much damage from the Impoleon and it's just a race against the raid timer here so we're in a good position where we can probably get three calm minds up before we go for a next attack. So you can see it's gonna lock in with the Grassknot not gonna be doing too much damage. Like I say just keep an eye on the Impoleon it hasn't had that competitive boost and we have got the Sun in effect on the field. We haven't got it yet so that's something that we're gonna have to do before we do go for an attack but we can lock in like I say getting these calm minds up now and then getting the Sun up to go for an attack so we'll get three calm minds up. I don't want to get too greedy at this stage in the battle either because I think it will nullify our stats again at some stage. We don't want to kind of waste these turns where we're gonna have to just commit another three turns to get these calm minds up so this is the third calm mind that we're going for. The next turn we're gonna go for a sunny day and then we're gonna launch off those weather balls. You can see if you do see a surf come out from the Impoleon it is just gonna heal you so that's a really nice aspect of the ability we have the water absorb on a Vaporeon and then we can lock in with that sunny day and get that set up that's gonna be an effect for five turns and now we're gonna be in a position where we can fire off these weather balls. You don't want to get too greedy like I say with calm minds because it will nullify our stats at some point and when we know the Impoleon is gonna be at 50% health it will nullify the stats on its side of the field, outside of the field again and it will set up an iron defense as well so that's the next thing we're gonna be looking out for but you can see the damage that we're doing is not too bad and we're gonna catch up with that raid timer as well and at this stage we're not taking any damage either we're not on any kind of danger of getting knocked out from the Impoleon it's just not going to be able to do very much at all so making sure you get the partnering Pokemon correct in this raid is quite important but also the kind of the early stage setups with the Vaporeon is important as well for this to get to this stage of the battle so you can find a close things out now another weather ball here will likely knock out that shield or will be very close to knocking it out as it is going to lock in with an ice beam and will once again just lock in with another weather ball just keeping an eye the whole time on the the sun and making sure it is in effect on the field because otherwise weather ball if there's no sun it will just be a normal type attack and it's not going to be hitting or super effective damage and that's kind of the thing that we want to avoid because we don't have turns to waste in this battle so you can see the Impoleon removing negative effects from its side of the field and it will probably nullify stat boosts on our side of the field right now as well so the shield breaking it's about that 50% health mark and we might know we're not going to be able to get another sneaky attack off there we go nullifies stats on our side of the field so we want to concentrate this stage going for those calm mines again and this is just going to be the next three turns where we just boost up our special attack and special defense so we can hit a little bit harder to close out this raid otherwise it's going to take us a little bit of time and we are like I say against the clock in this raid and the Vaporeon is pretty consistent like I just like the ability of it once it's sterilized it's not taking any damage from the Impoleon if it starts to get out of control with those competitive boosts for whatever reason if you're partnering Pokemon or activating the competitive ability you've got the hares there to fall back on so you can remove those but you can see the damage output from the Impoleon it's literally got nothing it can hit you for super effective damage with so we've got three calm mines set up now we can just check our stats and we want to get that sunny day active on the field again because that's faded now and then we're going to be in a position for the next five turns where we can just utilize the weather ball from this range should be enough to kind of pick up the knockout but we'll be able to see what it looks like going forward the only caveat I guess to this would be the flash cannon if it does revert to using it it can lower your special defense by one stage as a kind of side effect to that so that's something just to keep in mind can weaken you but you've got the calm mine to negate that as well so you can see here at plus three we're doing more than enough damage and two more of these is going to be more than enough to take down this Impoleon and honestly the fact that input the Viporion is available to everyone in the game it's in the base games you're going to be able to put this build together no matter what stage of the game you're coming into you're going to have an easy time dealing with the Impoleon with this specific build maybe one more maybe two more might be enough to to get it depends if opponent pokemon can get that little bit of extra chip damage but like I say with the Viporion build you're not going to have any issues dealing with the the Impoleon over this weekend and you can run through it to farm for the high cost items but I do feel like probably the best option maybe a little bit more reliable than the Mew but it's as easy as that if you just follow the steps and some of the tips that I've said throughout this raid battle here with the Impola and you're going to have no trouble at all dealing with it with this Viporion farming it if you want to do that throughout this weekend if you've used the Viporion over this weekend to take down the Impoleon do let me know down in the comment section below I think it's a really unique build and definitely one that I've had a lot of fun playing with especially on stream before we've done this video tonight after the raid went live but as you can see as easy as that to take down then you're going to get all of the nice item drops lots of candies and things like that which is always useful in the game for the Mew also when you come into the Impoleon it's pretty important to take note of the partnering Pokemon that you've got next to you if there is an Intimidate user again just come out of the raid and come back into it to have preferable partnering Pokemon again on turn zero it's going to go for the Snowscape and then the Blizzard and then hit into you unfortunately there we do take a critical hit which may affect us but the turn one if you are going forward with this is to just go for a skill swap onto this Impoleon and take that competitive ability away from it so it doesn't have the ability to have those stats boosted freely throughout the raid when you're trying to conduct your setup I'm going to take a bit of damage but the first things that you're going to want to do in this raid is chase your tracelization get these acid sprays off it's likely throughout this setup you're going to get knocked out you may be able to get through this this setup here getting these three acid sprays off and not be knocked out which is great but there's a lot of the the chances are that you're going to be knocked out through this process but that's super fine don't worry about that at all you want to just continue going for these acid sprays it's going to reduce the special defense on the Impoleon by two stages every time you use it and it'll work through the shield as well so you really want to reduce these special defense down as much as possible and at the same time while you're using these acid sprays it is ticking down your tracelization counter now because of that critical hit that we took earlier on you're going to get knocked out likelihood is you're not going to be in the same position as what we are right here so you probably be able to get the third acid spray off the next turn and not have this five second penalty but after you've got that third one off it's likely the Impoleon going to set up a shield pretty early on in this raid like I say if you're in a similar position to what we are here next acid spray that we go for to get those three off to get it down to minus six special defense we'll still work through the shield so that's super fine so we'll get that last acid spray off here and then because we're in a good healthy position as well we can probably concentrate down this next turn ongoing for these nasty plots now something to bear in mind if you do get knocked out you will lose the competitive ability you did skill swap off the Impoleon earlier but that's super fine it's not something you need to rely on in this raid now we take an attack there and we're going to start getting these nasty plots boosted up on our side of the field good to try and wait for when it nullifies the stat boost on your side of the field but we're running a bit low on health and that's a big thing to keep in mind with the mew once you do to rastalize you want to keep an eye on your health you want to make sure that you are getting attacks off at the right time so you aren't getting to the position where you can potentially be knocked out that is going to be a big caveat to this raid so getting the nasty plot off we've got one off so we're plus two special attack and the Impoleon is minus six special defense so this should do good damage once we have to rastalize so locking in with that you can see good damage going to get us a nice bunch of health recovery as well through that shell belt item and we're getting close to knocking out that shield so we're in a position now where we can just start really cutting through get rid of the shield and then concentrate on the rest of the battle here to close this out as quick as possible now it's nullified the stat changes on our side of the field to taking away that nasty plot boost so we can spend a turn going for another nasty plot getting ourselves back up to plus two and maybe if you've got room go for another one after this where we can get to plus four but it does depend on the damage you've taken up to this point in the battle so we're pretty comfortable at this stage we'll go for another one here this will put us to plus four doesn't mean that we're going to be able to remove this shield this next turn or if we've got room i think you just have to judge it as the raid's going on and go for another nasty plot but just bear in mind you don't want to get yourself knocked out and lose trastalization and if you get a turn like this where you do get frozen that's not ideal you're going to have to rely on the heal cheer here because freeze is the one thing that will affect you throughout the raid and it's going to stop you in your tracks and you don't want to risk getting knocked out like i say just go for the heal cheer you've got three of them to spare it's going to be something where rng can happen throughout the raid but you can kind of get around that with the heal cheer so you just do that you get frozen twice in a row you're going to have to use another heal cheer i can't believe this the rng is super bad so your rng is not going to be this bad but i guess it's a good example to show if your rng is pretty bad you can still get around this in the raid by just having to go for another heal cheer you're not going to need to rely on these too much we're still plus four special attack the impoleons minus six special defense as long as we get through this turn surf thankfully can't freeze us but it does nullify stats and abilities on our side of the field so we haven't got those boosts anymore so we're going to have to go for another nasty plot here so you can get bad rng where it's going to slow you down slightly and you can see we're racing against the time now with the raid timer but we should be all right after this where we'll be able to take at least one more hit and get a nasty plot up or we can start getting some health back and then cutting through this impoleon but like i say if your rng is really bad throughout the raid it is going to be tricky but most of the time you're going to have not as bad rng as what we've had and you're going to be able to start cutting through it now a plus four with a special attack it's minus six we can do some damage we're going to recover all that health lost so the mew pretty good consistent even if you're getting bad rng you're still going to be able to do the raid in pretty decent time but it's not as good as probably the vaporion after you've got that tracelization set up where you're no danger of ever getting knocked out the mew is in danger of getting knocked out throughout this raid which is a little bit of a scary prospect as well especially if you can see something like the competitive ability before you're able to skill swap or getting activated or anything like that but at this stage now we're going to be in a good point just to get it into hits so you can see with those plus four special attack boosts that we've got two nasty pop boosts and then all of their special defense boosts that the impoleon's taking it's going to be pretty easy it has nullified the stat drops on its side of the field now of course it does that at 50 health so we can go for an acid spray and then the next turn is probably going to be in range for a aura sphere to pick it up so we'll be fine but I mean we've had absolutely horrendous rng throughout this raid and we've still done it in pretty good time so the mew is a very good option but you can have some bad rng I think this raid is probably one of the most rng dependent raids that we've had in seven star raids totally that we've we've seen in Scotland Violet so very temperamental but with the two builds that we've got in this video you're going to have no trouble taking on the impoleon I'm going to have to have some very very bad luck not to be able to beat it in your game but once you've done it like I say you're going to get all these rewards and the two builds that we've covered today the mew and the vaporion which ever one you use are going to be very good at taking down this impoleon farming through over the weekend and making sure that you can catch it while this event is available so friends that is everything for today I hope you found the mew and the vaporion builds helpful all the details as always for the builds will be down in the description if you want to take a look at them after the video if you've used these builds do let me know down in the comment section below which one is your favorite or which one you have used to beat the impoleon if you've got another build that you've been successful with do let me know as well share it and we'll be able to share it within the community to make it easier for everyone to be able to beat the impoleon as the event goes live over this weekend very crazy raid but a very fun one all the same and I just love
