#yep this is Celeste’s first successful raid battle because every single other time I’ve needed a Miraidon I used Lucifer

(This post is delayed an hour because I had to have dinner) how to beat Emboar in Violet (Mudsdale will work in Scarlet don’t worry): Mudsdale won’t work so ditch it in favour of your ride Miraidon now with Calm Mind. You will need Gardevoir and an Intimidator as teammates

I’m not quite sure how the beginning of this raid went because I was busy editing the tags of my “giving up on Mudsdale focusing on the objectively less-likely-to-work-for-this-raid Celeste the Miraidon” post but it must’ve gone well because when I turned my entire attention to the raid, Celeste was fully-healed up and hadn’t fainted so looks like Gardevoir discovered he’s allowed to not only turn up to this raid (genuinely while attempting this raid in Scarlet I never saw Gardevoir turn up. Got a few Arboliva though unfortunately that ability is not only useless but worsens your attempt at the raid when you’re relying on Earthquake being your best move) but also use Life Dew to help his teammates out. I managed to get 6 Calm Minds in this time just because Celeste didn’t run too low on health (can’t remember for certain but I don’t think Celeste even fainted this time. I mean those Calm Minds woulda been for nothing if it did)
