7★ Metagross Strategy: When Pigs Fry (2, 3, or 4 players)
- ⚠️ The main core of the strategy is at least 1 Skeledirge AND at least 1 Oinkologne (male ♂️) (or Reshiram).
- Hisuian Goodra, Gouging Fire, and Espathra events-and-raids are optional supplemental builds; these should be selected only after at least 1 Skeledirge AND at least 1 Oinkologne♂️ are in your lobby.
- Reshiram events-and-raids may be used alongside Skeledirge, with or without Oinkologne.
- ⚠️ Skeledirge's ability should be Blaze.
- ⚠️ Oinkologne's ability must be Lingering Aroma.
- Oinkologne must be male♂️, as only male♂️ Oinkologne can have this ability.
- ⚠️ This is NOT an OHKO strategy -- Metagross is a very difficult boss with a combination of traits which make it difficult to set up an OHKO for, especially for less than 4 players.

When Pigs Fry: Optional Supplemental Builds
- Listed below are some builds that are helpful to have after the main core of Skeledirge + Oinkologne♂️ has been established
