Pokemon Scarlet - 7 Star Samurott Raid (Noivern)
No commentary in this one on account of everyone over here being sick to some degree (except me). I am putting the name of my new saboteur type in the title since I haven't seen or heard of it being used in any strategies.
Noivern is a little different from Umbreon (except relying on typing for defense instead of bulk), but both have Screech and both can learn Taunt even though I only have it here. In the event things went longer, I intended to try using it to prevent Samurott from using Sword Dance. My goal here is to evade all ground attacks by being flying, and my tera type is Flying so once I connect the number of Hurricanes I need, I can go Tera and dish out hard hitting flying attacks. If I could get a rain setter like Pelipper, I could use this thing offensively for any future opponents that are weak to flying, provided they do not thrive in rain like Samurott can.
The strategy here is for me to start by using Screech to weaken Samurott and then when the shield goes up, I go offensive and work towards going tera myself. In the first match, Blue is attempting the Rollout strategy. Azurill cannot use Belly Drum here without proper support or risking death, instead relying on his ability and the amplifying damage. The drawback here is that I thing it makes using tera a lot more difficult. I suspect without the Body Slam paralyze or Hurricane confusion, we may have lost the first round.
For the second round, we try something more traditional. He does use Belly Drum, I use Screech, and then he goes all offense and I lag behind in joining him. His move here is Aqua Tail, using the buffs and debuffs to do the damage he needs with Shell Bell healing. Had the Drifblim landed Will o Wisp, this would have been a piece of cake. In the event Crimson were with us, I think we would probably have needed him in a position to drop a status or two.
I should mention that there isn't really solo potential here as Noivern is a special attacker, but does not learn Fake Tears or Metal Sound. If Hurricane were not unreliable in terms of accuracy, it may be possible, but as things stand, there is a very heavy RNG element in trying to make it work.
So this one was a little harder than some of the others, but I added a few other Pokemon to my roster to call upon. Depending on what Typhlosion does, we may get to show one of them off in the coming videos.
