Hisuian Decidueye is a 3-star raid boss, and defeating it may reward players with a Shiny Hisuian Decidueye. It takes proper meta-knowledge and powerful counters to win against Hisuian Decidueye in raids.
Hisuian Decidueye is a dual Grass and Fighting-type Pokemon, providing access to a versatile movepool in Pokemon GO. It is a rare occasion when a Standard and Shiny variant debut together, and the same has happened with Hisuian Decidueye. Winners of the Hisuian Decidueye raid might encounter a Shiny Hisuian Decidueye, but one needs intense grinding to make it a reality. Although the raid boss is a powerful fighter, solo players with proper counters and meta-knowledge can defeat it. This guide details the best way to get a Shiny Hisuian Decidueye in the game.

Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Hisuian Decidueye In 3-Star Raids
Since Hisuian Decidueye is a 3-star raid boss, defeating it starts with understanding its stats and power level. The Arrow Quill Pokemon has a maximum Pokemon GO CP of 3275 and a balanced stat spread of 213 Attack, 174 Defense, and 204 Stamina. As a 3-star raid boss, the monster experiences a notable boost in its maximum CP and overall damage output.
Regarding Shiny Hisuian, the developers at Niantic have set it as a raid encounter. Winning Hisuian Decidueye raid might reward Pokemon GO players with a Shiny Hisuian Decidueye; the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. One must win multiple Hisuian Decidueye raids and encounter numerous Standard Hisuian Decidueye to match its Shiny odds.
Winning 3-star raids consecutively requires powerful counters and proper meta-knowledge. Before selecting the raid counters, trainers should carefully analyze Hisuian Decidueye’s weaknesses and resistances. It would be beneficial if the selected counters had the Same Type of Attack Bonus (STAB) potential moves aligned to the raid boss’ weaknesses in Pokemon GO.
