Is 12 people a MUST for Mega Mewtwo?

In preparation for Go Fest Global weekend, I’ve been looking around for info but have seen a lot of conflicting information. Are we sure you NEED 12 people or can less than 12 people fight it and some people just have to break the shield twice? …or revive your mega mid battle for a second shield break to eventually achieve a full 12 shield break down?

Thank you in advance for your time and help in trying to figure this out. Just want to be sure with the right information so when the weekend comes, whatever group I’m with, doesn’t end up getting screwed. ✌🏻❤️

Lucky forever friend has 2020 Mon (does it use 1 of the 45 guaranteed lucky trades?)

I have achieved forever friends for the first time with someone. We are also lucky friend status. They have 2020 and before pokemon and I am wondering if we trade one of them… will it use up 1 of my 45 guaranteed lucky trades even though we are lucky friends??

Also, side note/question, when 6 year old(or older) pokemon are traded, does the guaranteed lucky trade count go up for both people or only the person that trades the 2020 or older pokemon?

Just worried about potentially using up a guaranteed lucky trade when it’s not needed since we are already lucky friends.

Thanks in advance for the information!
