![[Analysis] Community Day Greninja with Hydro Cannon as a raid attacker](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Water-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)

TL;DR Water Shuriken/Hydro Cannon Greninja is the #1 non-legendary non-shadow non-mega water attacker. It’s a clear improvement from the “traditional” non-legendaries: Swampert, Kingler, Samurott, etc. However, it’s worse than most shadows and...
![[Analysis] Mega Diancie and Geomancy Xerneas as raid attackers](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Rock-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)

TL;DR Mega Diancie is now the best rock attacker in solo power. Mega Tyranitar outperforms it in group damage (neutral typings) even if just one other player uses rock. But in that case, a background Primal may work even better. Although Geomancy...
![[Analysis] Magma Storm Heatran as a fire-type raid attacker](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Fire-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)

TL;DR Behind Reshiram and top shadows (Moltres, Entei, Blaziken, maybe Charizard), but better than all other non-shadow non-megas not named Reshiram. It’s a huge upgrade for Heatran, but your rare candies and ETMs are probably better spent on Reshiram instead....
![[Analysis] Shadow Garchomp as a raid attacker: An upgraded but specialized Shadow Mamoswine](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Ground-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)
by Teban54 | Jun 17, 2023 | Raid, Raids, Teban54
TL;DR – Very valuable, but no need to go out of your way for it. Shadow Garchomp is the #1 non-mega Ground attacker (with CD move Earth Power), and one of the #1 non-mega Dragon attackers. But it only offers a small improvement for both types. Ground (with EP):...
![[Analysis] Community Day Haxorus with Breaking Swipe for raids: One of the many dragons](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Dragon-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)
by Teban54 | Jun 7, 2023 | Raid, Raids, Teban54
TL;DR This is not a meta-breaking CD for raids. Not even close. A small upgrade for Haxorus. Made it go from the bottom of the “group of non-shadow non-Rayquza dragons” (Salamence, Garchomp, Palkia, Dialga, Zekrom) to the top of the group. But it’s...
![[Analysis] Tyranitar (and its Mega) with Brutal Swing in raids: The Dark-type Monster Returns](https://articles.pokebattler.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/DarkGhost-Now-ASETTW-2880x1800.png)
by Teban54 | Jun 4, 2023 | Raid, Raids, Teban54
TL;DR – Hunt down those Cliffs before Shadow Larvitar goes away! Shadow (Dark) Tyranitar redefines dark/ghost attackers now. It’s at Mega Gengar tier, MILES ahead of all other non-megas, is one of the most useful shadows in raids among all types, and is...
