Every raid catch has an IV floor of 10/10/10, so the two rows are the real minimum and maximum. If you see 1,625 CP it is a perfect Decidueye — throw a Golden Razz Berry.

Raid guide

How the fight goes and what to bring.

Trainer difficulty Decidueye goes down with 2 trainers running optimal counters at level 40+. Plan for 4+ if your team is not fully powered up.

Do not bring Fighting, Normal, Electric damage — Decidueye resists it and your lobby will run out of time before it runs out of HP. Everything in the counter list above already hits for super effective damage, so pick the six highest entries you actually own and power up.

On the catch screen, use Golden Razz Berries and aim for Excellent curveball throws.
