A Pokémon GO trainer soloed Shadow Landorus-Incarnate, describing it as the first solo clear of a Shadow Tier 5 raid. Landorus had Mud Shot and Earth Power, and the battle took place in Snowy weather with the Behemoth Blade Adventure Effect active.
Two six-Pokémon lineups made up the roster. The first used five Level 50 White Kyurem with 15/15/15 IVs and a Level 40 Black Kyurem with 15/15/12 IVs. The second paired a Level 50 perfect-IV White Kyurem with five Level 50 Black Kyurem, whose IV spreads were 15/15/15, 15/13/14, 15/12/15, 15/11/15, and 15/10/15.
Solo clears had already happened in other high-end raid matchups, including a Mega Starmie solo with six Dawn Wings Necrozma. The claimed first here is narrower, involving a Shadow Tier 5 boss.
