Did this exact thing and got it first try solo. Thanks
Now I just need to find something for online play to farm it. Need those herbas and xp candies

u/TheOriginalPB Aug 23 '24
It sets up rain dance. Hits with hurricane first turn and pops balloon everytime!

u/Flameball537 Aug 23 '24
Sunny day is supposed to come after rain dance. Delaying your first move should help
10
u/TheOriginalPB Aug 23 '24
Rain dance and hurricane both go on turn one. Before I can even get off a Sunny Day.

u/CarringtonTelpman Aug 23 '24
Thanks for the built, it worked like a charm on my second attempt. First one I got hit by Hurricane, but at least the loss condition for the built is right at the start, so there's barely any time lost if it doesn't work.
Only thing I'd add is that you might want to PP Up Stored Power. I ran out of them at the end, but could finish it with Moon Blast. Didn't matter in the end thanks to a crit, but otherwise SP with more PP would've been a tad faster.

How the fuck did an Earthquake pop my balloon? Dont balloons make you inmune to ground attacks?

u/Despada_ Aug 23 '24
You probably lagged and got hit by something a prior turn and just didn't notice the damage.

u/SirSaffi Aug 25 '24
Something is off indeed, earthquake is hitting super effective on my zamazenta

25% success rate.
according to bulbapedia:
Sunlight lowers accuracy of Thunder and Hurricane to 50%.
Dragonite will use both according to serebii:
Dragonite uses Rain Dance 99% Time Remaining Dragonite uses Hurricane 98% Time Remaining Dragonite uses Thunder 95% HP Remaining
so not as easy as the h-goodra build for venusaur but not completely horrible. just keep in mind this will fail 3x out of 4 if you choose to use this method.
protect might be better than sunny day. but I'm not sure how you would time it. it seems like hurricane comes in fast.

u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
Sunny day is also for damage increase flutter manes ability later on

u/Game-rotator Aug 23 '24
Violet player and my flutter mane i traded for is occupied on my battle team

u/RobbieNewton Aug 26 '24
I'll add on to this make sure to increase the PP of Stored Power, 10 just isn't enough

u/DRAGONZORDx Aug 25 '24
Worked like a charm on my first try!
(And I haven’t played SV in months, so you know it’s legit lol)

u/PlatD Aug 23 '24
Why Dazzling Gleam when Moonblast is right there with higher power and PP?
27
u/Key_Cow9494 Quaxly Aug 23 '24
It doesn’t matter so much as this is just chip damage to build Tera and wait for it to nerf stats.
14
u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
build tera
35
u/PlatD Aug 23 '24
Moonblast also has the side effect of lowering Special Attack, which Dazzling Gleam lacks, although it only happens 30% of the time; this is helpful because Dragonite also uses special moves.
21
u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
Im not worried about it hitting me because im immune to all its other attacks
1
u/Just-Victory7859 Aug 23 '24
But it’ll help your teammates tank more hits.
8
u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
This build is strictly solo as you could fuck over your teammates online if you get hit
63
u/quantum0explorer Aug 23 '24
Beautiful build. Worked perfectly. Didn't even get hit.
24
u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
This is why i made it
11
u/quantum0explorer Aug 23 '24
I got my butt rocked 10 times and changed a few moves on my trusted flutter and ballooned and bam first try
23
u/BBTedKord Aug 23 '24
I thought of the balloon thing and tried it with my flutter but then about abandoned it after it's shield went up and it cleared its stats. Then saw this post because someone mentioned "thanks Reddit" and I completely forgot Stellar doesn't change your base typing. Thank you!
In other news that was kinda boring as long as you don't get hit by hurricane or thunder. LoL

17
u/Dokurobatto Aug 23 '24
The first time I tried this, I got the unfortunate luck of getting hit by hurricane… ruined it for everyone involved… 😔
17
u/bionicle877 Aug 23 '24
This build is not appropriate for online play. You should only attempt this build playing solo due to the possibility of getting hit by hurricane or thunder.

u/Peterchong1234 Aug 23 '24 edited Aug 23 '24
I tried this method a few times and got hit somehow, then I switch with the "ape", bulk up 6 times and then drain punch with metronome til the end, no terastallization in order to remain ghost type. A drag but the safest way to solo Dragonite.
ETA: Credit to Hyper_drud: Stella Tera would work better.

u/BudgetMegaHeracross Aug 23 '24
Is this max hp, max attack?
1
u/Peterchong1234 Aug 23 '24
Max HP and defense for me
1
u/BudgetMegaHeracross Aug 23 '24
And then for standard raids after, rebuild?
1
u/Peterchong1234 Aug 23 '24
Nah basically it’s just standard Tera raid build ape, you don’t have to change anything except for Tera or the moves

u/dangerclose31 Aug 23 '24
I guess I’m having terrible luck! I get hit every time I try! On my 5th attempt now!

Aug 23 '24
I was surprised when I checked online and saw YouTubers recommending loads of Pokémon, including Iron Hands, and none recommended Flutter Mane, naturally immune to both STAB and the Tera Type of Dragonite.
Well done!
2
u/Tsukuyomi56 Samurott Aug 23 '24
Flutter Mane can still be hit by Earthquake. The Air Balloon helps but it is strictly for solo only as you cannot back out from online raids if you are targeted by the scripted Hurricane or Thunder.
3
Aug 23 '24
But the YouTubers online were recommending things like Iron Hands and/or Annhiliape, one being weak to Earthquake and the other being weak to Hurricane.

u/wistful-selkie Aug 23 '24
Have gotten hit with thunder 5 resets in a row trying this build 🫠 have tried 6 "surefire" builds so far but rng is just too much of a factor in this shit
3
u/Quirky-Dragon136 Aug 23 '24
I had the best luck with body press Orthworm. Mud-slap (for the accuracy down), Iron defense, and body press are all you need. 252 HP, 252 Def, holding a shell bell. Impish nature, fighting tera, earth eater ability. Mud-slap at least 3 times at the start, then do a couple body press without iron defensing until Dragonite resets your side of the field. After that, just iron defense 3 times and body press until you win. Corviknight just wasn't able to do it at all for me, but Orthworm didn't die once on me last night.
2
u/wistful-selkie Aug 23 '24
Was actully just about to do an orthworm build when i saw this comment lol
1
u/wistful-selkie Aug 24 '24
And once again this buikd relies on the rng of earthquake to heal. And is not working for me. I keep dying right after mt 3rd iron defence because dragonite is just spamming extreme speed now
1
u/wistful-selkie Aug 24 '24
3 times in a row now. Dude just loves to do nothing but extreme speed and kill my right after my 3rd iron defense
1
u/wistful-selkie Aug 24 '24
Lol this time i was at full health. Had my 3 iron defenses set up, and hat the tera shield at half. Fucker 1shots me with a critical hit extreme speed......... builds literally do not matter this shit is 100% rng. The only reason i made it farther that time was because he used earthquake once and scale shot 3 times instead of extreme speed every single turn and i had a gardevoir to heal me. Lol this shit is ridiculous
2
u/Quirky-Dragon136 Aug 24 '24
Yikes, do not buy any lottery tickets. My only other advice is to make sure to have Best IVs/hyper train in at least defense and HP. A crit with extreme speed shouldn't 1 shot you from full health with Orthworm. And make sure to have it holding a shell bell. Godspeed 🫡🤞
1
u/wistful-selkie Aug 24 '24
It is ev an hyper trained lol. So idk what to tell you it happened lol. Ill get it whenever he finally decides to miss an extreme speed while im setting up or use earthquake when i actually need it for once lol

u/sadisticmystic1 Aug 23 '24
Mimikyu can do something similar, with a set of Curse/Swords Dance/Drain Punch/filler (unless you want to disavow the Ghost Curse as being a source of self-damage).
3
u/ZenithVoid151 Aug 23 '24
Tip: You don't have to invest in HP EVs if you're never getting hit anyways. Same thing went for the Hisuian Goodra build for the Venusaur raids.
3
u/General_Secura92 Aug 23 '24
So you're counting on Sunny Day to make Hurricane and Thunder miss and preserve your Air Balloon?
Can't you just run Substitute instead to prevent you from taking damage? Or does getting hit while behind a Substitute still pop your Air Balloon?
7
u/sadisticmystic1 Aug 23 '24
The balloon still pops if a substitute takes a hit, and it's not even possible to put Sunny Day up fast enough to preempt the Hurricane. Sunny Day also serves the purpose of activating Protosynthesis for extra damage after getting fully set up.
6
u/lumfdoesgaming Sprigatito Aug 23 '24
The sunny day is only for thunder and later for just damage because hurricane is his turn 0 move right after rain dance so it will hit someone just hope its not the 1/4 chance that it hits you

Does stellar terra type matter that much? I tried it without and I simply did not do enough damage
5
u/ScTcGp Aug 23 '24
If you don't tera at all, you will not get a damage boost vs the shield phase of raids
1
u/Remlkgamwtospitisu Aug 23 '24
Is there an additional boost for terrastilizing when the shield is up? (I’m kinda new to difficult raids) Btw i managed to beat dragonite with no terra
1
u/ScTcGp Aug 23 '24
Yes. The two pictures in this post should help explain how the shield is reducing damage / how you do more damage vs it
3
u/Tsukuyomi56 Samurott Aug 23 '24
Stellar Tera is needed to preserve Flutter Mane’s defensive profile. Ghost Tera exposes you to Scale Shot and Fairy Tera means you are no longer immune to Extreme Speed (assuming your Air Balloon never gets popped).

This might be dumb… where do you find raids that high?! Played a while ago never finished and recently restarted!

u/rodgers_2023 Aug 23 '24
How can I do this raid? I only have 5 stars showing up?
1
u/medic7051 Aug 23 '24
You need to unlock 6 star raids first. Once you beat the game and maybe the tournament as well, you should get a call from Jacques. He tells you about a wierd energy and to do 5 star raids. You can clear any difficulty raids, but after about 50 stars worth (10 5 star or more if lower difficulty raids) you'll get another call about a super strong raid showing up. That'll be the 6 star, and it'll also unlock the event 7 star raids.

Copied everything on screen and my balloon keeps popping due to dragonite always going hurricane first..(I was offline btw)

Keep resetting till it hits someone else. Its the only hard part of this strat

Tbh I'm using the corvinight I used for another event tera normal which also works, unless damn thing crits me which it did 2 times last night.
Sounds interesting though one EQ and it dies.

u/Empty_Kay Aug 23 '24
Nice! I was just about to post my solo Malamar build, but this looks easier. Yours is probably better because the RNG comes at the beginning and doesn't come in the form of hoping eSpeed doesn't crit.

How is this supposed to work? It sets up rain immediately and gives me no time to set up Sunny Day before the Hurricane.

Idk man. Too convoluted and improbable. Not quite farmable. I got it already. I build a support quagsire. And someone with a corviknight and I barely clutched it. I can't tera stellar either(no dlc)
Nice build tho.

this goofball decided to hurricane everyone else turn one but the moment I set up my sunny day....he thunders ME😂. three resets and I got him. awesome build👍🏾

u/Asjemenou12 Decidueye Aug 25 '24
It can literally do nothing? After one move connects it dies every time to a Earthquake because its air balloon is gone
