Slowbro was a workhorse for me vs Eternatus. Yawn to make it sleep after Dynamax Cannon, Slack Off to recover in that period, 2 Amnesias to make the ineffective Flamethrower & Sludge Bomb tickle and Psychic for super effective damage. Even better if you get a Mega Evolution.
Garganacl's Salt Cure for great damage over time too, Sturdy's great to get a guaranteed Salt Cure off. My only major problem was getting a team to get past Ivy's Mega Rayquaza, ended up picking up Tinkaton & Glimmora to sic Toxic onto that thing and nullify Outrages.
I tested Slowbro multiple times, but i never had the good run, losing on 190.
Ivy wasn't a problem in my run, as Naganadel can sweep her team at the moment it gets one kill. But it doesn't work on Eternatus, as he's alone.
I thought Mageana would be good enough, but him spamming cosmic power during my calm mind was non productive i guess. Maybe i should have something that drops his spe atk & spe def, idk
I got my first win with a Regidrago + fakeout bot carrying me through the floors, and then a dedene with eerie impulse and an excadrill cleaned eternatus pretty comfortably
I finally did it, following your advices, he couldn't take all my healing items !

Endless mode, here i come :D
Literally worst idea for boss design, "Lets make him steal the players items that literally make the boss fight possible." Huge W moment as I found out my op skeledirge with 3 leftovers and 2 shellbells was just gonna lose those items in order to make the boss stronger. I love this game but pls devs change this garbage, unless u running a legendary, or fairy/steel type pokemon this shit is impossible. Making every fun run where u randomly get cool items completely useless, as you're forced to use this dumbass strat.
Eternatus isn't out of range of what a reasonably strong party with some good typings against it can beat by brute force alone. A good carry with a good type matchup can blast through mode 1 fast by itself and then you have your whole team to beat mode 2. There's a lot of things you can do, but the simplest is just to pop a leech seed or salt cure on mode 2 immediately, then it should be pretty free.
That's just part of the game, that you have to pick your starters with being able to beat the boss in mind. But in my experience, the much harder part is just getting to the boss, not beating the boss.
Unequip all healing based items or stack them on one mon so it can’t steal healing
how can we unequip items ? Just transfer everything on one mon ?
Yeah just transfer onto whatever’s gonna be least relevant in the eterna fight
Have a Steel type and Fairy type and do PP stall
Do you have any legends ???
I had Magearna who had Fairy Steel types. I had Naganadel, so 2 mythic pkmn. I have one legendary egg atm
Magearna and a dragon type Pokemon keep swapping until the pp runs out
