 Hello friends in today's video, we're going to go over the best builds for soloing the brand new seven star turret event for Typhlosion, which will be kicking off later this week. So kicking off on the 14th of April, which is this Friday as of recording this video, the seven star Typhlosion turret event will be live in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. As always, we'll kick off by taking a quick look at the overview of this Pokemon, the potential possibilities this thing will have when we go into this turret event. As you can see, Typhlosion, it will have the ability's blaze of flash flyer. It's likely going to have flash fire as its hidden ability. So it's going to have that immunity to all fire type attacks. It will be set to level 100 like all other seven star turret events and it will have the ghost terror typing tied to it. Big thing about Typhlosion is it is a little bit faster, a bit speedier than our previous turret event Pokemon with a base speed of 100. And if we do the 30 times multiplier to its HP, you're looking at a number around 8,910 hit point damage that we're going to have to do to Typhlosion to take it down in this raid. And the move options for Typhlosion are likely going to be big fire type attacks and ghost type attacks that are going to play off its ghost terror typing. The big attacks that we're going to have to watch out for in particular are going to be eruption. This is a move that is based off its HP. It is based 150 base power at its maximum damage boosted by the Sun as well. It's going to be hitting extremely hard. So something to watch out for over heat is another option as well. I've put lava plume on there as well because it does have that secondary effect of having a 30% chance to burn the target when it does hit. Solar Beam is a nice coverage move that we're going to see probably played off if sunny day is something that Typhlosion has. It will go from a two turn attack to a one turn attack and it gives it an option to hit things like water type Pokemon, rock type Pokemon, ground type Pokemon that may likely come to this raid. Now focus blast is something that has been talked about a lot with Typhlosion. It does get access to it and because of its high special attacking stat can do some significant damage with the focus blast. It also gives it an option to hit dark type Pokemon for super effective damage. So something I think a lot of us are probably quite wary of going into this raid and I honestly think it's probably a possibility that we will see focus blast on this Typhlosion. So it's something that we need to think about in our preparations going into this raid. Shadow Ball feels like the only real option that it's going to have if it's going down just a soul special route that it's going to have for a ghost type attack. It doesn't get access to Hex which I'm actually really surprised about because I thought initially the playoff with Willowisp or Lava Plume to burn the target and then use Hex with that ghost terra typing to double its damage with the status effect could be something that could be quite problematic for us. But Shadow Ball looks like the main attacking option that we'll see from a special attacking side of Typhlosion. Now a set of options Typhlosion doesn't really have too many for us to worry about sunny days. Definitely something I think we'll probably see it does boost the attacking part of things like eruption over heat Lava Plume all those fire type attacks does make something like Solar Beam a one turn attack as well. So that could be possible Willowisp is something I could definitely see it playing with as well because it is a nice support option where it can burn those physical threats. Now the other options I've starred here are something that a lot of people are kind of overlooking is that Typhlosion is primarily going to be a special attacker and I think the majority of its big powerful attacks are special attacks. But I don't think we should overlook the physical side of Typhlosion and gets a lot of physical type attacks and it does get some options here with setup options where it could kind of play off those. So it's just a possibility. I'm not saying it's going to happen but it's something that I think we should take into consideration going into this raid with preparing our Pokemon now it does get howl so it does have access to boosting its attack and special attack through that move. That's something that we may see on this Pokemon. Lear is another option where it would lower our defenses and then its physical type attacks that does get access to it does get low kick so again playing off the same sort of type weaknesses as that focus blast low kick could be on there. Flareblitz of course is going to be a big strong powerful fire type attack in the Sun while charge is an option as well for it as well as Shadowclaw which gives it an alternative ghost type attack and move that is on the physical side not the special side. The likelihood is though I think it will be more special that makes more sense. Typhlosion has got a much larger special attacking stat than it does a physical attacking stats I would say predominantly it is probably going to be a special attacking Typhlosion but these are primarily the things we're going to have to look out for. Eruption I would say is going to be a big one overheat I could see definitely a bit like the Charizard raid that turn one set up the sunny day and overheat or set up the Sun and eruption could be options there focus blast solar beam shadow ball and then sunny day willow isp as you supporting options on there. So these are the things that we're going to have to watch out for and primarily what I have been building towards when I've been putting Pokemon together. So these are a few of the builds that I've got put together now there are some caveats with these builds and you might be thinking why have you got a mouse garada coming into a Typhlosion raid it's part grass type it's going to be weak to those big fire type attacks well there is a caveat to this and I think it will work depending on when the shield goes up. Now if we see the shield go up very early on like the Pikachu raid this will not work at all but this could be a very good strategy going into this raid and I think something I'm looking to try out as soon as we go into this one but me as Garada has got that part dark typing so it will resist the ghost typing and it does get access to one key move that makes this set in my mind work perfectly so the move set is going to be skill swap fake tears nasty plug and dark pulse we've seen me as Garada performed very well in raids in the past the skill swap is there primarily to steal the flash fire on the Typhlosion now like I say there are some caveats with this the Typhlosion for one needs to have flash fire to we need to see no screens go up the first turn because of screens go up it means we can't skill swap the Typhlosion but if we are able to get the skill swap off turn one then we're going to be able to steal that Typhlosion flash fire we're then going to be immune to the big fire type attacks for the remainder of the raid which is pretty huge which allows us room to then go for the fake tears the nasty plot set up and then fire off dark pulses to Typhlosion so this is the premise with the me as Garada like I say there are some caveats to this working but if everything lines up I can't see the shield going up too early I can't see Typhlosion haven't anywhere to stop us getting the skill swap off it should in theory work pretty well me as Garada obviously will hold on the shell bell item so we've got a line of recovery there we've got the dark terror typing on it as well with an EV spread of 252 HP 252 attack ability of his overgrowth don't really need to worry about the ability here because you're passing it over to the Typhlosion anyway you are going to have to worry about the focus blast if it is there because of your dog typing that you've got but if focus blast isn't there then me as Garada is going to be in a really good position to take on this Typhlosion now the fake tears is going to be there to law the special defense on the Typhlosion that's the plus boost your special attack in the dark pulse is your main attacking move we've got a modest nature 252 HP 252 special attack on the me as Garada so this is something that I think could work although I do say there are some caveats to this one working the next one up is spirit to my do like spirit to my lot into this raid I think because of its ghost and it's dark typing it can do a good job we've got the shell bell item again on this spirit to man it plays a lot like the me as Garada where we are going to utilize that skill swap if it is something that we can use going into this raid we've got an EV spread again of 252 HP 252 special attack with the modest nature and spirit to has the natural bulk as well to be able to take some big damage in attacks from the Typhlosion skill swap is going to be the move that we use initially to get rid of the flash fire on the Typhlosion put it onto our side of the field then we've got a combination of combine to boost our attack special defense snarl to law the special attack on the Typhlosion and shadow ball is going to be our main attacking option on there and the nice thing about spirit to him is it doesn't have a weakness to fight in type attacks like the me as Garada so that focus blast really isn't going to be an issue at all so you're only going to have to worry about things like solar beam if you can steal that flash fire from this Typhlosion which you're really not going to worry about at all and with the shell bell recovery there after a couple of calm mines you're going to be doing enough damage to kind of recover your health each and every turn next up we have flutter man and Flutter Man was a very good Pokemon to bring against that Charizard seven star raid event which was the dragon terror typing for good reason it had the fairy typing that he could do good damage to it but with Flutter Man sky high special defensive stat it might be able to stand up to Typhlosion pretty well in this raid we have got the shell bell item on there because just in this raid you're going to need lines of recovery it does make sense for it and I feel like this item choice is probably the most optimal going into this raid especially for the Flutter Man we've got the ghost terror typing on their modest nature 252 HP 252 special attack just to optimize our special attacking damage we've got that proto synthesis ability as well which is another added bonus of bringing Flutter Man if Typhlosion does set up the sunny day then you'll get that proto synthesis boost meaning you're going to be able to do a lot more damage with that active now the move set for Flutter Man is calm mine to turn one we're probably going to need to go for the calm mine to get our special defensive boost and even further so we can take those ghost type attacks that are going to be threatening us from the Typhlosion as well as the fire type attacks that come out from it as well fake tears is to law the special defensive stat on the Typhlosion draining case gives us a way to get some health back as well if we want and then shut a ball is I mean attacking move on the Flutter Man modest nature of course and that is the eevee spread but that is the Flutter Man and I do have my reservations about it but I do feel like it could be a decent option going into this raid nonetheless on the next Pokemon we are going to talk about is Houndoom it's going to be another Pokemon that will have issues with any fighting type attacks the Typhlosion will carry again because of its dark typing but it does have access to flash fire which gives it instant immunity to any fire type attacks coming out of the Typhlosion really cutting down its ability to do damage to us and having to rely on things that maybe aren't as effective especially those ghost type attacks that are going to be resisted because of its dark typing I really like Houndoom here but as I say there is the caveat to having a focus blast on the Typhlosion that could make things a bit tricky to remember as well even if focus blast is there it is a lot accuracy move so it's not going to be hitting every single time so you may be able to get around it that way anyway just because it's not going to be hitting so much Shellbell is the item on the Houndoom if you have a move set of taunt that could be a filler though you could replace that with anything that you wanted but a way to stop things like Sunny Day getting set up again and it can support partner Pokemon as well it can shut down things like Hal that could be a possibility as well as that Willowisp that could be problematic to a partner in Pokemon Nasty Plot is going to be a main thing to boost ourselves up Snarl there to reduce the special attack and damage on the Typhlosion of course and then Dark Pulse is going to be a main attacking move Ability has to be flash fire into this one with an EV spread of 252 HP 252 special attack with a modest nature now I do like Toundoom and I think it will be a really good one into this but if we do see focus blast it could make it quite difficult for bringing Houndoom into this match and it hasn't got the best defensive stats overall anywhere but I do think it can do a job just depends on what we see the Typhlosion coming into this event with next up is another dark and fire type Pokemon which is Chiyu and it is one of the new Ruin Legendary Pokemon it does have better stats spread overall than the Houndoom doesn't have flash fire unfortunately but it does have some good options probably to optimize this you want to change its Terra type to Dark and it is going to resist those ghost type attacks of course from the Typhlosion Shell Bell the item of choice because it just gives us that line of recovery like we keep saying Bizarun is the ability now the thing is with Bizarun is it will lower the special defensive stat of the Typhlosion but it will do the same with everything on your side of the field as well so it is going to weaken Partnering Pokemon good Pokemon to go on with to solo but probably not one to take online and it could do a job I do think again it's going to fall into the category of being a bit problematic if we see something like focus blast because it is going to be weak to that attack now the move set is nasty plot gives us a way to boost our special attacking stat and light screen gives us a bit of defensive stability against a special attacking stats from the Typhlosion Snarl going to increase the special defensive stats of our side of the field and then Dark Pulse going to be our main attacking move on this Pokemon Modest nature and I would say that you probably want to just go 252 HP 252 special attack for EV spread on this one for the Chiyu but that is Chiyu I do think a good option obviously a legendary Pokemon as well so its stats are going to be good but again it's going to have to be a bit wary about the focus blast if that is an option on the Typhlosion and next up we've got the Hydragen again going to fall into the category of focus blast being an issue if it is there or low kick Shellbell is the option that we've got on the Hydragen though I still think it can do a decent job dark terror typing on it of course we've got focus energy which increases the critical hit chances after you've used it we've got nasty plot to boost our special attacking stats snarl to reduce Typhlosion's special attacking stat and then dark pulse is our main attacking option there EV spread is going to be 252 HP 252 a special attack with a modest nature and I think the Hydragen is probably quite a solid Pokemon as well with that dragon typing going to resist the fire type attack dark typing going to resist the ghost typing attacks it's just whether or not we see something like focus blasts on there that could make this a little bit tricky and some other options that we've got going into this raid that I think might be quite useful or something like Arcanine I do like Arcanine a lot because it does get access to that flashfire ability giving that instant immunity to those fire type attacks that we could see turn one I can really see something like Typhlosion ghost sunny day eruption turn one here and something like a flashfire Pokemon like Arcanine like the Houndoom could be quite useful in those scenarios where it's able just to take no damage from that first turn at all unless we see the abilities nullified and then we see something like eruption fired off that could be a little bit problematic but otherwise I think the flashfire users will be quite useful in this raid now Arcanine is not a bad Pokemon at all a good stat spread we've got the dark pterotyping on this to play off the move set a little bit here Shell Belt is the item we've got a move set of Morning Sun now that is going to play off sunny day if that is a factor with this Typhlosion raid it will recover all of your health when you use it as long as the sun is in effect Howl is an option that we can use to boost our attack and special attack we've got Lear here combine that up to lure the defense on the Typhlosion and then crunch is a main damaging attack move on the Arcanine here we've got an EV spread of 252 HP 252 attack just to maximize attack and stats flashfire is the ability of course and an adamant nature on the Arcanine moving on the next Pokemon is a Pokemon we've probably all got built in our games already if you don't it's probably worth building one because it is just generally so good against even six star terror raids that you're going to be taking on in your game anyway although this is a seven star terror raid and it is annihilate the fighting and ghost type attack in Pokemon now it has got good bulk to this Pokemon so it's going to be able to take a combination of attacks from the Typhlosion you're still going to have to worry about the Shadow Ball I think more than anything because you have got that ghost typing can go for that generic set we've got the Shellbell item on there and annihilate might be a Pokemon that can come into this raid and solo it but we will have to wait and see I'm putting this in here because it is an option that does keep surprising me every time we go into the seven star raids I don't include it and then it turns out it does the work once again so we're putting it in here today just as an option that you can try the start of the raids and obviously when the event goes live we will be able to clarify if this does well or not but the set normally is just bulk up screech drain punch and rage fist rage fist going to be your main attacking option on there Eevee spread of 252 HP 252 attack with an Adam and nature defying ability on there as well now the one thing I would say about these physical attackers aren't a fire type is that I would worry about the willow isp I worry about getting burned because if you get burned then you're going to be a way worse position be able to do the damage to the typhlosion and willow isp is something that could cause annihilate a lot of issues going into this raid and why I wouldn't put it in the top tier of Pokemon to choose from going into this event but that is the annihilate build and definitely something to consider especially if you've already got a build in your games next up I think Umbrian is a nice option as well it does have the ability to skill swap as well you get the leftovers item because it does have a good way to recover dark terra typing on there as well moonlight that is going to be the move that you're going to play off to get recovery also benefits from the sun being up on the field recovering full health when it is active skill swap is there because it is a nice disruptive move you're going to be able to take that flash fire and just have that immunity from those fire type attacks and Umbrian bulky anyway it's going to have the resistance to those ghost type attacks it does have the same issue of being weak to that focused blast or any fighting type attacks that we do see come out and this option there's a bunch of options that you can play on Umbrian it gets fake tears and things like that but the options here we're playing the screech and file play set just to be able to lower the defensive stat on the Diplosion and then take advantage of the file playing especially if we see something like howl this might be quite a good option to bring and a good supporting option as well it does get a lot of supporting moves that you can take online support partnering Pokemon helping hand things like that are going to be really useful but Umbrian generally going to be quite a good option to bring into this raid especially if you're going to go in with friends especially online and the last two Pokemon that we're going to mention today and one of them is going to be Pyro it is going to be a little bit susceptible to those focus blast low kick options that the Diplosion does get but I do think a really nice option nonetheless does have that fire and normal typing so it does mean that it will be immune to all those ghost type attacks the fire type attacks it's going to resist anyway it's not going to worry about things like solar beam that we could see on it so generally going to be quite a good Pokemon we have given the dog terror typing shell belt is the item for a line of recovery and we've got a move set of work up snarl entrainment and dog pulse now the beauty about this is it works a little bit like the skill swap you don't need to necessarily go down this route but the entrainment turn one because you are going to be naturally faster than the Typhlosion you're going to be able to get this attack off first turn or something like that into even though it's resisted it's still will be doing a lot of damage in the sun the entrainment will copy the flash fire which is really nice because then you're able to just have that resistance for the rest of the raid and then you can concentrate on going for those workups boosting your special attack and stat reducing the special attack and stat with snarl on the Typhlosion and then dog pulse is going to be your main attacking move EV spread on here we have 252 HP 252 special attack and it will be in modest nature on this pyro and I do like this option because if we don't see something like focus blast on the Typhlosion with that entrainment turn one you're going to have complete immunity to all of those ghost type attacks and complete immunity to all those big powerful fire type attacks the pyro could actually be a really good Pokemon going into this raid event but we'll have to wait and see like I say I do suspect something like the focus blast on there from the Typhlosion and finally to wrap up today is just another Pokemon that I would like to bring into this raid it is Phyregoraph and the reason why I'm bringing Phyregoraph is it's got good stats it's got good general bulk it is normal and psychic typing it is going to be immune to those ghost type attacks though because of its normal typing which is a big plus for Phyregoraph it does get Shellbell and it does get access to Skill Swap as well so a little bit like the pyro plays a little bit differently because of its psychic typing with that normal typing it's going to take neutral damage from those big fighting type attacks so it's not going to be as threatened by them but if you can get the Skill Swap off onto the Typhlosion early on and then steal that Flash Fire you're going to have the immunity to the fire type attacks and you're going to have that immunity to the ghost type attacks while you set up with something like Nasty Plot Amnesia and then when you do decide to terastalize you're going to be set up to a point with all your stats where you're going to have like plus six special defense so you're not even going to worry about the ghost type attacks coming out from the Typhlosion and then you can play off the boosted stored power from your terastalization and do some big damage after all those boosts up with the Nasty Plot and Amnesia it works a little bit like the Slowbrow strategy except you can Skill Swap over the Flash Fire you've got the immunity to the Ghost type attack and Furgaraff might actually be quite a good option going into this raid so we'll see I think my top picks for this one would be the Furgaraff I'm quite interested to see how this works and then obviously the Meow's Garada as well is the other one that I do like going into this one with that fast Skill Swap that you can do turn one and then you can just set up and do a lot of damage to the Typhlosion potentially if we don't see the Shields going up turn one now there's some other options that I did look at down here Flareon it just doesn't get the attacking options that you need it does get Flash Fire I think it could be quite a good support of Pokémon in general Greninja I do think is a good option you could go with some tonight roleplay if you want to get round the big Fire type in attacking moves even though it will resist it with it's part water type in but it is going to be weak on the defensive side but roleplay a nice option to steal that Flash Fire and then you've got Rain Dancers another option Swords Dance and then something like Night Slash that you can play on as well there Roaring Moon was an option I did look at but I really do fear the Willowest Pier from the Typhlosion and the fact that it's not got many set up options I feel like those burns are going to be something that we're going to have to watch out for and it will really cut down the ability of Roaring Moon to do the damage that you need if it is burned throughout the whole terror raid and that goes for the same as Terranitar as well I love Terranitar it's typing is perfect for this the rock resists the fire the dark resists the ghost but I do worry about Focus Blast for one because it's four times weak to it and also if it's not there then you're going to have the the worry about Lava Plume Burn so that's a possibility or just Willowest if it is a supporting option on the Typhlosion but all in all we've covered a bunch of Pokémon in today's guide so they'll all be linked down in the description as well if you want to take a closer look at each in every one of the build and I hope you found today's video useful let me know what your thoughts are and what your best picks are from everything that we've covered in today's video let me know as well what you think about Focus Blast is it going to be there or not I really think it probably will be there so we're looking at things like for a graph Spirit Tume more optimal choices going into this raid but of course as soon as the raid goes live we will go live covering it all and then we'll do a bunch of testing as we normally do and then throw up the best Pokemon to solo this within your game so you have an easy time going up against this Typhlosion but let me know what you think of everything in today's video thank you so much for taking the time to tune in do drop a like it massively helps out the channel and subscribe so you stay up to date with all of our Pokemon scholar and Violet content that we've got here on the channel thank you so much for tuning in friends have a great rest of your day and I will see you all in another video very soon so until then take care of yourselves and bye bye
