    I tried soloing this earlier, here’s what I found out:

    Turn 0:

    • Shield initialized (!)
    • Hone claws

    Moveset pool:

    • Iron Defense
    • Earthquake
    • Zen Headbutt
    • Light Screen
    • Hone Claws

    I got over halfway to victory with my volcarona and flame dance b4 I got blasted out of the cavern.

    Edit: I succeeded in soloing. Used a Skeledirge with max PP for torch song, + Shell Bell, and fire tera.
