Can you win a raid battle by yourself?

You can't do it alone; you'll need help from fellow Trainers to raid the Gym and (hopefully) prevail. Raid Battles aren't your typical Gym Battle; your opponent is more difficult to defeat than most other Pokémon. Raids have 4 tiers of difficulty: tier 1, tier 3, tier 5, and Mega Raids.

BATTLING IN A RAID

Once in the battle, you can perform one of three different actions:

Fast Attack

Tap anywhere on the screen to perform a Fast Attack. Fast Attacks charge your Charged Attack meter.

Charged Attack

Once your Charged Attack meter is full, the Charged Attack button will become enabled. Tap the button to perform a Charged Attack. Charged Attack causes large amounts of damage.

Dodge

Swipe to the left or right to dodge incoming attacks from the opponent. At any time during the battle, you can flee to heal your Pokémon using Potions or Revives and then rejoin the battle.

If you are not able to defeat the Boss in the battle, you may rejoin the raid and battle again. You won’t need to use another Raid Pass to rejoin; your pass will grant you access to the battle for the duration of the raid. You can join as many times as you’d like before the raid ends. If you and your fellow Trainers are successful in defeating the Raid Boss, you’ll earn special items and a chance at catching the Pokémon. Special items may include Golden Razz Berries, Fast and Charged TM, or Rare Candy. You may notice that you or your fellow Trainers receive a Trainer Achievement, highlighting special circumstances like the Trainer who delivered the final attack during the Raid Battle. Receiving a Trainer Achievement will also contribute to your Raid Expert Medal. Tap the download button to save the Achievement to your device’s photo app and share on your favorite photo sharing app! After the Raid Battle, you’ll also receive a number of Premier Balls used for catching the Raid Boss. The number of Premier Balls you receive in a Raid Battle depends on how much damage you deal, whether the Gym is controlled by your team, and how quickly you defeat the Raid Boss. Note: In Mega Raid Battles, Trainers receive extra Mega Energy instead of extra Premier Balls for defeating the Raid Boss quickly. You can't use Great Balls or Ultra Balls here; you’ll only be able to use these Premier Balls to catch the Boss Pokémon. However, you can use Berries to help capture this Pokémon. Aim carefully — once all of your Premier Balls run out, the Boss will flee. Once you have defeated the Boss, you won’t be able to interact with the Gym until the raid has completed. After the Raid Battle has completed, the Gym is restored to its state before the raid. Any Pokémon previously assigned to the Gym return to defend the location.
