"not enough energy" game tells me, when i have over 2k sync orbs
i know have enough, the hell is "energy"
mellow linden
Energy is different from Sync Orbs, if thereās any tiles youāre not using deactivate then
obtuse hound
looks like i cant type either
dusty crater
imma stream this to share my pain
mellow linden
Energy is basically a mechanic to make sure you donāt grab every tile at once

Siebold did come in clutch in LG once because I used a really stupid team on Entei that couldnāt finish bar 3. That was the first and only time Iāve ever used him
eternal lodge
phoebe when it was electric weka i had no way to ontype her, i had to go for urshifu + swampert + raichu
dusty crater
HAHA YES CRIT

If the situation calls for it otherwise I use other units, but Siebold fills in a nice niche I'd say for a quick first sync clear

Thank you all for your help, CS 10k is easy now because of your help :)!!
eternal lodge
what a difference between grimsley and marshall, for grimsley i used deoxys and still needed to use sleep, marshall after a single sync from necrozma it was practically done
mellow linden
Really I think SS Ethan is the key, his team is whatās up in the air
simple storm
I need help with Caitlin
5/5 elesa could clear cait

Sabrina + Lucian + SS Ethan off-type?
How to use the team?
boreal rose
5/5 elesa could clear cait
She cant

Sabrina buff crit all, Lucian growl forever, Ethan kills

no electric terrain?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
boreal rose
At least with teams i used her in

no electric terrain?
Nope
mellow linden
Lucian spams Growl, SS Ethan alternates Trainer Move and Aeroblast (iirc), Sabrina gives buffs

kinda hard u could offtype tho

u got lucian?
mellow linden
Lucian could work too, yeah
eternal lodge
and tbh potion wont be useful considering i need to get that spdef as low as possible
simple storm
u might want either adebuffer, or sync accel or something like cred
eternal lodge
i wasted lucian on marshal
eternal lodge
i wanted the sync accel, reason i was using deoxys, but after i had to use it for grimsley ill have to get something else
simple storm
leon accels too
eternal lodge
elesa was used on caitlin
boreal rose
Sabrina + Lucian + SS Ethan off-type?
I forgot. I am doing Master Mode
simple storm
anything works
dusty crater
mellow linden
Shouldnāt matter too much except maybe for Sabrinaās survival
eternal lodge
i believe that also, but after grimsley id rather go safe
eternal lodge
yeah, but ive spent the whole day thinking of a way to beat grimsley without sleep nor a reset, and im almost sure i used it
eternal lodge
seems i didnt, i got no reason to think about another option then, time to double sync
eternal lodge
i already got ss brendan
simple storm
just run anything dude
eternal lodge
my grimsley team also lacked nothing, but it was tanky as hell
simple storm
hell go use glacia idk
mellow linden
Will re-suggest Skyla for Speed and Defense since those stats would both benefit the team
boreal rose
God darn endure
dusty crater
CRIT WHY
mellow linden
Oof
keen jasper
Ugh, I was so close to 3.2k pts. on Iris
simple storm
God darn endure
so close
simple storm
yeah thats good
mellow linden
Fair
simple storm
then just spam growl on lucian
mellow linden
I think thatāll trap the entire enemy team too
boreal rose
I used Aeroblast and not Sync Move
eternal lodge
iris sure can be tanky too, it survived sync + max move
simple storm
did u sync with brendan first?
eternal lodge
kinda hard to sync with anything other than eternatus with that outrage
mellow linden
ā¦Is SS Serena that busted (mostly rhetorical question)? Because Thousand Waves + her Sync + Core Enforcer was all it took to KO Iris
simple storm
be sure to have super efective up on leon before u max move as well
so use his tm, brendan sync, then max move
no way it doesnt die
sick inlet
ā¦Is SS Serena *that* busted (mostly rhetorical question)? Because Thousand Waves...
Technically. On a half sync. You can solo Iris with Zerena. You just need to not eat an outrage.
boreal rose
I fricked up. I used Dire Hit all and not Sixth Sense
astral crane
Yeah Zerena is broken. One of my favorite units to use in the game
mellow linden
Huh, ok then

Ooof

At the very end (when Caitlin will have little to no health) i will use either only attacking moves or heal

2.8k on Grimsley, 2.9k on Shauntal and 3.2k on Marshal, Caitlin and Iris
Hmmm, wrong math
It's actually 15.3k pts.

It's actually 15.3k pts.
But 10k is max

But 10k is max
IK, but you see some YTers go above 2k pts.

You can go over, it just doesnāt record it

I wanted to lvl him up at least a bit

All you need is luck rng to not get hammer armed first turn.
If he tries hammer arm and misses, best scenario
late halo
Making me want to start on mine now. I donāt think I have 5 solos in me though
Maybe 3
sick inlet
Also I don't know if its a glitch bug or whatever. But in half sync, if you put both minus sync parameters, they only count as 1.
Like Marshal has to start with 2 turns no matter what you do. So that's free parameters.
(3 without anything)
2 with both parameters that decreases sync turn.

Ice Ghetsis. The ex units are mostly limited. Same with rock and bug but Bugsy can work pretty well on bug weak stages. Nice nuke.

i got 3/5 guzma if thats any consolation

He can work. Not the brightest but a solid option.
I built Bugsy for LG and the numbers from sync nuke are nice.

kind of yikes to use all three for one team if i'm being honest. š¬

Who do u have for the stage
This is what I am trying to use

Is that enough buffs for N
simple storm
im guessing n is clicking x attack
do u have support ex?
be sure to set terrain as the last move before your sync with N
so that it lasts
quaint solar
Is that enough buffs for N
I would hope so. Cobalion is for crit and move gauge. Luxray is for electric terrain and flinch and paralyze for sync nuke with Zekrom then I just use X attack with Zekrom
simple storm
3/5 coba
quaint solar
who is your syncer
Yes N. And no. I don't have support EX. still never needed to use it to clear content so far. That's why none of my supports are EX yet.
eternal mist
3/5 coba<:BrendanWoah:604790873661898757>
Some ppl choose to focus i guess 
simple storm
Yes N. And no. I don't have support EX. still never needed to use it to clear co...
ok sure then try using N super efective up and dont attack until u sync
eternal mist
n just need mpr on x atk with coba iirc
simple storm
so u do more damage
honestly +4 atk is enough maybe
but if u have a physical support that gives crit it would be better than coba
eternal mist
Like bpraichu
simple storm
ya
eternal mist
Imo volkner might be a better sync than N, whose biggest draw is his 4gauge atk
quaint solar
so u do more damage
I also you coba for group defense debuffs
manic mica
i ended up using some. strange combos lmao
simple storm
I also you coba for group defense debuffs
but u dont even max your attack, honestly that comp works better for presync
eternal mist
I also you coba for group defense debuffs
Raichu does that too. Cobas biggest benefit that sets the 2 apart is the def debuff imo
simple storm
btw now u can reset and do MM 
simple storm
not really
frosty axle
master mode actually isnt that bad in Unova
simple storm
it might have to do with your mechanics in game, not your units
so its definately possible

dont leave Shauntal for round 2 or 4 I found

not when ur only water units are garbage LOL
frosty axle
also electric with Ash and red
simple storm
not when ur only water units are garbage LOL
u have cyrus palkia lol
literally free unit

i used cyrus for iris

Palkia if you got orbs

nooo

so couldnt for shauntal
eternal mist
Idr what order i did my fights
manic mica
maybe ill try cyrus for water this time then
frosty axle
without EX yes
manic mica
simple storm
there are 2 zinnnias that should be able to clear
for bug u could offtype if u have strong masterfairs or broken stuff
manic mica
ya i just offtyped bug
simple storm
and electric well if u have red or ash its free as well
manic mica
electric was free with just ny volkner for me LOL
frosty axle
I used Ash on bug and Red on electric
manic mica
used red to offtype grimsley
simple storm
ny volker also very free
u can definately do at least 4.2k mm
which gets u the rewards u really need
eternal mist
U could 10k if ssred is 3/5 ex and you have Lillie at 2/5
frosty axle
you really only need 4.5k points
simple storm
yah

Group keeps getting killed on sync

bp points are ok but nothing that u should stress over

Group keeps getting killed on sync
Yeah cobalion doesn't help with special defs
manic mica
thonk
simple storm
how is mid not ded
eternal mist
So you're gona want to smite her to death before she gets to sync
eternal mist
N takes 3 turns to x atk
simple storm
that may be the reason
eternal mist
simple storm
with sup ex u could sync with that and also buff N at the same time
and N just attacks
eternal mist
Thats a valid strategy too

oh ye btw how many points did u go for just curious
i go for 7.5k
idk if i'll try 10k but hm . it is Tempting
gusty ravine
ouh nice
now that i think about it i probably should have gone 2k caitlin too cause sst red and n is overkill for 1.5k š
keen silo
I put every defense and HP parameter up to 2k, and killed cait pre sync with red and ash
That's just how broken these units are together 
gusty ravine
"sst red is a tech" yeah uh looks at his 6k damage on 2 gauge move

SS Leaf & Janine good to stall Marshall or Shauntal? Those two Iām finding some trouble right now lol

You have cyrus for shauntal?

Are you on master mode or n

do shauntal r3
gusty ravine
ok good u can use cyrus for shaultal BUT keep in mind that you'll probably need another dragon dps for iris
keen silo
cyrus is more water than dragon i feel
strange violet
I have Zinnia
gusty ravine
oh okay fair enough thats fine i dont think she needs ex anyways
ya just use zinnia and refer to the recommended grid
strange violet
From the google doc right
gusty ravine
ya that one

Whatās recommended to pair Cyrus with?

he has crit focus on his grid so you dont need to care about that for the most part

I have may

plucky pewter
So this is my first draft for teams this week.
Theoretically should these teams work?
toxic cobalt
Why have Giovanni and Oak?
main crow
I feel like psychic team might run into gauge issue at some point
plucky pewter
Used giovanni for hard to get my unova medal done so thought he'd be useful again.
Sycamore is on that team because that's the team I used for last round of bug.
Ash is there as an additional dps with his b thunderbolt
toxic cobalt
Giovanni is useful, it's Oak that is weirdly hanging around
plucky pewter
Ngl I did auto psychic and then added alakazam š won't lie saying I put a huge thought into that one
I'd probably swap oak for rosa/serperior for the sp atk boost
toxic cobalt
Then what is Sabrina for?
plucky pewter
Crit boost + reflect?
toxic cobalt
Not very helpful
keen jasper
What about the ST Sp. Atk. boost?
keen jasper
Not very helpful
I ask, what about her ST Sp. Atk. boost on her TM?

This is the rest of what I've got, my lack of knowledge I'm struggling to think of someone else for the psychic team
toxic cobalt
Well what do you want them to do?
What do you want the team to do?
What is missing to achieve that?
main crow
Lucian/Gio/SSElesa works for psychic stage @plucky pewter
Lucian can growl everyone to get Gio's brainteaser going while also supplying speed support to everyone
summer flare
Is zinnia EX a better dragon pair than Cyrus?
Cyrus without EX and grid
Grid expansion*
He has his grid, just not the expanded one
main crow
Elesa Sp atk MPR RNG is kinda weird but since yours is at 3/5 you can get the 50% (iirc) refresh chance
summer flare
Asking mainly because I am considering to use Cyrus against shauntal
toxic cobalt
Zinnia in weather will do well
plucky pewter
Lucian/Gio/SSElesa works for psychic stage <@125460052525056001>
Alright thanks š
plucky pewter
Well what do you want them to do?
Only the last 2 weeks I've even tried CS since hadn't really been playing much.
I'm still learning the different "play styles" and how to set up for a units Max effectiveness etc.
So I don't 100% know what I want a team to do besides the obvious do damage
summer flare
Lost my Cyrus run because he missed hydro pump 3 times in a row
Alright, when Cyrus aims, it's easy, at least
Now gotta see if Mewtwo can do 2k
toxic cobalt
Only the last 2 weeks I've even tried CS since hadn't really been playing much.
...
Help Giovanni do damage then! Get his spatk up with one unit and the third can provide speed and tank.
summer flare
Ash and red are so insane I offtyped bug while having alder
Having them really made my account much more solid
And now I know last week wasn't a fluke, now that I got 10k again
plucky pewter
Good on ya
summer flare
This week was uh...
Round 1 Caitlin with volkner, ash and Roxanne
Round 2 grimsley with SSelesa, SST red and skyla
Round 3 shauntal with SS Kris, Cyrus and marley
Round 4 marshall with Sabrina, Giovanni and ssblue
Round 5 with drake, zinniaEX and ingo
plucky pewter
So, sadge I missed out on zinnia ex.. Started playing again when the rewards where like 3 days from leaving
summer flare
Ex was good to deal with the remaining side
Timing on that stage was very strict
I think all of the parameters were presync
I picked them once and didn't change them
plucky pewter
Aye managed to get 4200 done
dense crow
For this week's stadium, 1. Could SygnaLusamine solo Marshal while carrying 2 fodders, and 2. Can Zygarde-Gloria beat Iris with one fodder and 1 support?
I ask about the fodder cuz im missing 3 types for hall of fame and these r the last two stages i have for this week as well as the last 2 good units i got.
formal vigil
Yes
dense crow
Yes
Just to double check in case i end up weaker than u expected....will these teams work for their respective stages?
sick inlet
Just to double check in case i end up weaker than u expected....will these teams...
The first team will not have move gauge to work.
Second team doesn't need double damage dealers, you still need medals
dense crow
If i swap out the trainer for gloria/zacian, will that fix the problem?
Also wdym by i still need medals? If ur referring to the 10/18, im technically on 15/18 since ive already cleared the other 3 elites.
steel kelp
Youād be putting in another striker
sick inlet
Are you missing only these 3 types
dense crow
Yee
sick inlet
You're missing ice too
dense crow
....crap.
dense crow
Yeah....so only 2 stage.
sick inlet
Give me a moment
Hmm if you want "fodders" for Marshal to run alongside SS Lusamine you probably gonna do Trainer/Torchic, and Nanu (if you have masked royal that would be optimal)
As for the last one, Zerena, do you have Jasmine/Steelix?
Actually
Hop
dense crow
Yeah, though just to check, should they be at a certain level to function or....
sick inlet
No, they can function at basic 1/5
Masked royal would be great as he buffs speed for whole team
dense crow
Uh....i meant like actual level lol, some of them havent been touch since i pulled them...
sick inlet
Hmm
Just 100 if you're gonna carry with middle
It's crucial to get first sync before anyone dies
As Lusamine/Zerena real damage start then
dense crow
So i have torchic, nanu, and jasmine but no masked royal....also who should be my ice fodder cuz i think thay type might be my biggest weakness...
dense crow
Uh....was he from an event? Shop? Or story?
dense crow
Ah...i'll get to that then, i havent done it yet ToT
sick inlet
Recommended to get all LA units as they are incredibly useful
dense crow
Speaking of...would ghetis serve any purpose as my ice fodder or nah?
dense crow
Other than him, i only got glalie and 3/4* units so my options r pretty limited lol.
sick inlet
Well guess Ghetsis will be fodder
tardy minnow
I wanna beat Grimsley on Master Mode but have no good Bug units. Can an AoE nuker like SS Lusamine help?

Oh, also is this Hard Mode or Master Mode?
tardy minnow
Master Mode.
keen jasper
What round?
tardy minnow
Uhhh....
I don't get it. 
mellow linden
Each Elite 4 member is a round, each round has its own unique parameter
So what place in the order are you fighting Grimsley?
tardy minnow
Round 4.
keen jasper
Hmmmm, special damage increase
mellow linden
You could try on-typing with Lusamine/SS Brendan/Rosa
keen jasper
You *could* try on-typing with Lusamine/SS Brendan/Rosa
On-type?
mellow linden
Lusamine can on-type this week, though I did it with a different team and round 1
tardy minnow
Ooooh nice. Thanks!
keen jasper
Aren't we talking about Grimsley?
mellow linden
Yeah, Bug weakness
tardy minnow
Marshal has a Psychic weakness.
keen jasper
Hmmmm yeah got confused
mellow linden
Since she's EX it should be doable, if a bit close
Just make sure 1st Sync is with Rosa and you quadqueue
mellow linden
And also that Lusamine uses her Trainer Move twice so SS Brendan gets her to +3 crit
If that doesn't work after a couple attempts you can just try Bea/Hilbert/Skyla
Or maybe someone to boost Sp. Def instead of Skyla
mellow linden
Well you're not supposed to let the enemy Sync with Lusamine, but yeah, off-typing with Bea is probably a bit easier
lunar meadow
Ya, lusamine is kinda terrible š
mellow linden
"Terrible" is a bit of an exaggeration. Her fragility is a problem, but I've been able to 2k most Bug weak CS stages (Bug weak Lucian, I hate you) with her.
She would very much appreciate extra grid tiles though, so hopefully she gets some soon
lunar meadow
I found her to be a much better ice type than bug type, pre Kyurem/Crabominable days
mellow linden
She probably would work well for Ice weak stages, but I've yet to try her there
lunar meadow
With a support EX, she wasn't bad.
But that was 1500 clears
I'm just glad I finally completed a 10k full support run š
I tried a few weeks back, but during Hoenn we stupid

i nearly win against shauntal, but sides kill if i don't flinch or one shot them, and i cant get burned, trapped or heat waved too much. its too much rng. anything i can change?

yeah yeah im jk 
mellow linden
Anyways, iirc you have SS Morty and SS May, so those 2 + maybe SS Red (as iirc you also have him) or a 2nd Support can probably off-type, or (since iirc you have these 3 as well) Bianca + Sabrina + SS Steven
Assuming only Iris is left

Yep, some of the newer Sync Pairs turn certain fights into jokes

running a zinniaex based team, so increased sync buff?

keen jasper
im thinking zinnia, ssmorty, and um
Sp. Atk. buffer
obtuse hound
Could work, yeah. You have Hilbert available or nah?
yeah don't think i have him
keen jasper
any really good ones?
OG Lyra
obtuse hound
yeah good for sun too
keen jasper
Since you have SS Morty for sun, she can provide +2 Sp. Atk. for Zinnia
mellow linden
Just be careful about Sp. Atk. drops if youāre doing Draco Meteor and grab Clearheaded from grid if youāre doing Outrage
tired sleet
Is screens the same as the one in cs?
mellow linden
Light Screen and Reflect? Yeah, same effect as the round parameters
obtuse hound
sigh if only i had more cookies
i gave zinnia vigilance and skipped dauntless when i knew less š„²
mellow linden
Can always go Outrage build in a pinch
obtuse hound
i guess
whats the point of lyra then lol?
i guess i can build a little bit for draco
so i can use it sometimes
mellow linden
Lyra buffs both Attack and Sp. Atk.
mellow linden
Can try both builds and see which one works better
keen jasper
And if she's 3/5, she can infinitely reapply sun
obtuse hound
unfortunately just 1/5
but a lot more general pool 5* im getting their move levels up so that's good
keen jasper
You're still gonna bring Lyra with SS Morty anyways
obtuse hound
thru pulls
yeah
ugh
i only got iris to half hp before her sync one shot my entire team. ssmorty was already gone by then.
full mesa
Lyra buffs att/spa/spd by one stat and by two stats under sun. She can apply sun after sync and has a few defensive passives to work with when sun is on the field. Also she buffs crit rate. Through passives she can buff the crit rate to max without a need for TM MPR. Lastly she can apply light screen which halves the opponents special attacks power for 3 full turns. Not the bulkiest but works for special stages.
Note She's an ok-ish support even without sun.
mellow linden
i only got iris to half hp before her sync one shot my entire team. ssmorty was ...
What round effect did you choose?
keen jasper
It seems that Iris doesn't stat lowered attack stat mitigation (a.k.a Stout Heart)

more sync buffs
keen jasper
more sync buffs
Who did you sync first?
mellow linden
Alright
obtuse hound
first one
mellow linden
Hmm
keen jasper
I think +5 Sp. Atk. is enough
obtuse hound
i was averaging 3k per outrage but sync came in and destroyed
keen jasper
Your SS Morty isn't 3/5 right?
mellow linden
If worst comes to worst you could test SS May off-type (just make sure you turn off stat drop immunity if you do)
obtuse hound
i guess?
mellow linden
Does Zinnia have the grid tile that buffs Sync damage in weather?
obtuse hound
Does Zinnia have the grid tile that buffs Sync damage in weather?
sync damage?
i thought weather surge boost that too
keen jasper
i thought weather surge boost that too
She has another in her grid
mellow linden
Nope, Weather Surge is only regular moves
Though she does have a Weather Surge tile in her grid as well as the extra Sync damage in weather tile
obtuse hound
this is all im able to do before i "run out of energy"
mellow linden
You can grab those 4 tiles on the sides of the initial hexagon, they donāt cost energy. Hold on, I just slapped together a grid for Draco Meteor while I was checking Zinnia, lemme go screenshot it
obtuse hound
but i don't have dauntless
should i do presync parameters instead since her sync just wipes me out anyway?
mellow linden
You could test it. If youāre running Outrage the grid youāve got should be fine
Oh, thatās a good mixed grid
tacit matrix
That's the outrage build, it's just slightly more optimazed than yours
obtuse hound
so the 25 boost isnt good im starting to learn
mellow linden
It depends on the Sync Pair
tacit matrix
Actually this one is even better
The 25 is good but it depends if you can afford it or not
mellow linden
Something worth trying is to do the 1st turn order as Lyra Dire Hit All -> Zinnia action (whatever means you can do Sunny Day turn 1) -> SS Morty Sunny Day.
Unfortunately you canāt get 2 Syncs off before enemy Sync without Adrenaline due to the fixed round parameter, but that initial action order should let Zinnia Sync under Sun before it wears off
obtuse hound

iris' parameter you mean? and why don't i have adrenaline?
is it on zinnia's grid?
keen jasper
iris' parameter you mean? and why don't i have adrenaline?
Adrenaline on who?
SS Morty?
obtuse hound
whoever has it on my team, i guess the move level is too low
mellow linden
Wait, Iām dumb and forgot Lyra has Light Screen
keen jasper
Well, SS Morty does have Adrenaline, but only at 3/5
mellow linden
You donāt need Adrenaline (which would need to be a Lucky Skill on Zinnia, apologies for Confusion)
You just need to make sure Lyra uses Light Screen before your 1st Sync if you want to quadqueue and get 2 Syncs before Iris can Sync once
Irisā fixed round parameter sets Light Screen at the start of the fight, so without a way to set it back up, itāll wear off right as you Sync and prevent quadqueue. But since Lyra has Light Screen, you can use that on her 2nd or 3rd action and preserve the ability to quadqueue
mellow linden
If youāre not running the 2nd grid Saisis suggested then switching to it could push you over the edge
obtuse hound
it was worse the second time
nah im running it
but zinnia was one shot by sync this time
