Champion Stadium

[main crow]

It's the monthly fair

[river pagoda]

not rolling for those abysmal rates

and for any content in general

[main crow]

So uh good luck with that > 1% rate

[trail smelt]

I remember the tip for Glacia the first time she showed up with Steel weak and I’m all like

[river pagoda]

i j want my faves

[dark osprey]

and also egg magneton

[trail smelt]

PULL RAIHAN FROM WHERE TIPS?

[swift swan]

aaaand the pattern is broken again

rip, we're getting sinnoh and hoenn back to back

[swift swan]

from the monthly pokefair scout now

looks like everyone is too invested in the datamine to do CS

(me too)

let me see what the round params are

[trail smelt]

We get half sync which almost everybody hates

And permanent field effect which everybody loves lol

R1: Faint =debuff
R2: Half sync
R3: perma field
R4: Quick gauge

Oh I forgot what the champ has

[main crow]

Permanent field my beloved

[swift swan]

R1: When a Pokemon faints, debuffs the stats of the whole team
R2: Half sync countdown
R3: Permanent field effects
R4: Move gauge acceleration
R5: Debuffs are more effective

[trail smelt]

Oh well I never bothered to see lol

[swift swan]

half sync countdown my detested

[trail smelt]

Ohh so that’s why Keldiantha hit so much harder lol

[summer flare]

I find it funny how this week had the easiest 4 types I could ever get, but the boss was annoying

[steel kelp]

Why is this week so easy

[trail smelt]

The boss as in Cynthia?

[summer flare]

Because my fighting isn't amazing

[steel kelp]

Compared to last week

[swift swan]

hmmmmm I wonder who I should fight R2

[summer flare]

Yes

[trail smelt]

Ah yeha

[steel kelp]

Even flint was nothing this week

[trail smelt]

I faced Aaron second lol

[summer flare]

Because it has the four best types in my account

[swift swan]

ok yknow what. good idea.

[summer flare]

Electric was like, ash, SST red and blue

[trail smelt]

If your roster is amazing for that type you’re fine and dandy

[main crow]

Tbf it's only psychic Flint that's like cracked tf up for no reason

[summer flare]

Then dark had Sonia, Sydney and mr

[swift swan]

screw that, half sync countdown on Aaron means he's gonna use heal order early

[summer flare]

Then grass was lyra, SS lyra and SS erika

[trail smelt]

My exact same team lol

[main crow]

make a team made up of fire/fighting starters
bloated special atk stat

[summer flare]

Water was Kris, SS Kris and elio

[steel kelp]

Almost same

[swift swan]

a down week before we go back to hoenn and their hard-hitting bullshit

[steel kelp]

Did SS morty instead of SS Erika

[trail smelt]

I never found Hoenn harder than Sinnoh, the latter was the harder of the two for me

[main crow]

I wish a Sentry entry ×2 steel weak Glacia a very it's on the last week

[summer flare]

Fighting was a bit wonky due to lack of particularly amazing defense droppers and Bea not being EX

[trail smelt]

Maybe it’s changed now that I’m monotyping

[toxic cobalt]

All quiet on the western front I see

[steel kelp]

If only we got same trainer update sooner

[summer flare]

But I managed to pull it off with uh

Bea, Hilbert and BP clemont

[swift swan]

I also found Sinnoh harder. but damn Hoenn hits so hard for no reason

[trail smelt]

BP Clemont? Nice

[steel kelp]

Kinda wish I had kept hilbert for champion

[summer flare]

BP clemont had 3 functions for me

[trail smelt]

I still don’t remember what I did to beat Glacia last time haha

[steel kelp]

But used him for nessa against flint

[summer flare]

Giving the team accuracy, debuffing defense so I could actually deal damage fast enough with bea

[full mesa]

I nuked Cynthia so hard. SSACynthia/Kukui/Bea. 40k on sides and 33k on mid under zone and 2x sync buff.

[summer flare]

And then tank giga impacts

[trail smelt]

Oh wait I think it was a flinch steel team

[keen silo]

Cynthia these days has been "just get a quad queue and its a 2kpts" type beat

[trail smelt]

With Wikstrom and Steven

[summer flare]

I need to EX hilbert

But even then, Bea also needs EX

[trail smelt]

Hilbert is still top tier support for double physical strikers haha

[full mesa]

Fun challenge. The field effects actually help this time. Flint will be an issue if you can't work under rain and Aaron as usual.

[swift swan]

oh yeah @toxic cobalt can this be pinned

[toxic cobalt]

Not even a please

[full mesa]

I went Lucian/Aaron/Flint/Bertha R3 field effect against Cynthia. That's a good route if anyone is wondering.

[trail smelt]

LMAO

[keen silo]

That's for next week I assume?

[trail smelt]

I used to hate half sync but now that I got a lot more nukers I don’t hate it anymore

[full mesa]

This week

[trail smelt]

No that’s this week

Yeah

[keen silo]

Oh its monday

Mb

[full mesa]

Half sync Ash with 2x support buff. Bye Bye Aaron.

[keen silo]

Was still living in sunday

[toxic cobalt]

So basically figure out who you can round 2

Everything else irrelevant or bonus

[full mesa]

Definitely.

[swift swan]

everything else is good but man R2

[toxic cobalt]

Unless there’s someone to avoid R3?

[swift swan]

ugggh

[trail smelt]

R3?

Uhh

[full mesa]

Not really

[trail smelt]

Bertha I guess?

[full mesa]

You can change the weather for you.

[swift swan]

bertha has sand

[keen silo]

R3 is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[full mesa]

Use sun.

[keen silo]

R3 and R4 easily my favourite parameters

[toxic cobalt]

Eh looks like she doesn’t reset it once gone?

[full mesa]

Most grass nukers have a form of sun passive.

[trail smelt]

Yeah it’s grass you WANT Sun lol

[swift swan]

with bertha's stage having sand alert 5 on each mon, I think that's equivalent to perma field effects anyway LMAO

[toxic cobalt]

Just use gardenia

[full mesa]

I don't have her with grid yet.

[keen silo]

SS Erika 🥰

[full mesa]

I went Dawn/SSLyra/SSErika. Simple.

[trail smelt]

SSErika/Lyra/SSLyra lol

DOUBLE SUN SETTER

[river pagoda]

is brendan a decent grass nuker??

[full mesa]

Yes

[trail smelt]

Brendan is still great yeah

[river pagoda]

awesome

[full mesa]

Needs speed tho

[river pagoda]

ill use inertia on him then

[full mesa]

Inertia

[river pagoda]

yep i gotcha

running him w speed supp

probs skyla or somethin

[toxic cobalt]

Also good dps, can selfbuff. man has it all

[river pagoda]

he maxes his offense

so its gr8

he just needs more multipliers

and A MEGA

[formal vigil]

~~ Power boost when~~

[toxic cobalt]

Welcome to the last two years

[river pagoda]

only been the last 2 weeks for me but its still been 2 weeks of hell

[trail smelt]

… wait

[full mesa]

He also needs the lucky skill which prevents Spa drop.

[river pagoda]

even worse knowing ss hoenn trio just ran

[trail smelt]

Who is getting the power boost this month?

[river pagoda]

alr got duantless ya

[trail smelt]

It’s not SS Leaf

[river pagoda]

thts how ive been using him

[toxic cobalt]

Brendan mega has been a meme since his introduction. His model literally has a mega stone

[river pagoda]

just need extra mats for 140

then 1500

150*

[trail smelt]

Oh man is it Marnie?

Ugh

[formal vigil]

Fantina I think

[river pagoda]

then hope for luck whenever i get free scout tickets to get his move level up cuz hes only 1/5

[toxic cobalt]

Marnie and SSL

[river pagoda]

exactly

[trail smelt]

No SSL got the 5/5 treatment

I’m talking about the Kris/Cynthia/Karen one

[toxic cobalt]

Do we not count that as a power boost?

[trail smelt]

No there’s two different boosts

The 5/5 fair only boost like Raihan and Lysandre

And the 3/5 grid expansion boost for old units like Cynthia and Kris

I didn’t see who got the 3/5 boost this month

[formal vigil]

It's fantina

[trail smelt]

Ohh ok

Just in time for her EX

[summer flare]

I just figured my Bea wasn't doing damage property because I didn't grid her

Kinda an interesting 2k run, now

Gridless no ex Bea and BP clemont getting 2k

[trail smelt]

I just use EXless Bea as a battering ram lol

[summer flare]

It was kinda the case

But at the same time

I'd rather try and invest on the pair

So I can get an easier time through stages with it

[river pagoda]

is there a point in bringing a speed buffing unit to cynthia when she has so many spd debuffs team-wide?

[trail smelt]

When you wanna trigger ramming speed and inertia I guess

[main crow]

Speed is still important overall since no speed basically fucks up your que

[toxic cobalt]

Speed debuffs don’t do much in CS outside of stalls

[river pagoda]

hm

[main crow]

Unless you have move gauge accell or speedy units ig

[river pagoda]

in the same vein is there a point in bringing a special water striker to flint since he debuffs ur spatk so much

i only have 2 water strikers built up and its 3/5 may and cyrus

[toxic cobalt]

Hey give it a try see what happens

[river pagoda]

tru ig ill try it out

do yall run 3/5 may with a spatk buffer even if she has the spatk+1 70% chance on hit

seems a bit slow in CS

[toxic cobalt]

Yeah +1 is bad for CS

[swift swan]

wow this week was easy

[toxic cobalt]

(Enables the LG nonsense though)

[swift swan]

so next week is hoenn? do we know the weaknesses already?

kinda weird they decided to do that

[trail smelt]

Not here yet

And yeah they changed up the order haha

[river pagoda]

damn

i dont have to change my lucian team from last week

im off typing again

[trail smelt]

Oh you don’t have a good dark damage unit?

[toxic cobalt]

Like they have an order

[trail smelt]

They did for a bit lol

[river pagoda]

Only tech/strikers w dark moves 😔 haven't built any of em up yet but I'm sure Sidney/Nanu r decent from looking at their kits

[trail smelt]

Sidney does great yeah

[river pagoda]

at least as supports

[toxic cobalt]

Damn no nessa

[river pagoda]

yeah

😔

no sonia either

[toxic cobalt]

How is he at 1/5?

[river pagoda]

who else was a hella gud 5* perma pool

[toxic cobalt]

Time for a Nanu nuke

[river pagoda]

sonia, nessa

oh im misssing uh

courtney

[trail smelt]

Been awhile since then, but I tried him out at 1:5 and even back then I love him

[river pagoda]

heard she was gr8 too

and looker

and melony

and a whole bunch of otheers

[toxic cobalt]

Just remove the grid

[trail smelt]

Haha true

[river pagoda]

Would y'all recommend Skyla on Aaron team or Cynthia team? I'm thinking Aaron cuz I won't need potion support since sycamores on Cynthia team but idk 😩

wait nvm im right im putting her w aaron

hilb helps max out bea's atk and has impervious

[toxic cobalt]

Sides not too important usually

[river pagoda]

wasnt even thinking abt them honestly but ya ima keep skyla w aaron team then

hilb goes w bea

[toxic cobalt]

20% chance to flinch heal order

[sharp totem]

any order good or?

[river pagoda]

ima hope

[toxic cobalt]

Figure out your round 2

Rest is not important

[river pagoda]

wait wudnt this be 40$

or do the 2 staggering tiles not stack

or r they separate rolls

hows tht work ;0

[toxic cobalt]

Oh if you have both it’s 36% I think

(I’m too zonked out to do really basic maths)

They’re separate rolls

Same as potions

[river pagoda]

awesome

ty

[toxic cobalt]

(I think. Potions definitely are.)

[river pagoda]

good enuff for me

dont see why they wudnt increase from 20% in some way if theres 2 tiles on the grid

any higher % good enuff 😌

[swift swan]

honestly, I think it's actually a good strategy to fight him round 2. take post sync params, let him use heal order early on when you haven't dished out enough damage, debuff his offenses to oblivion

[full mesa]

That's a thought. Or use Ash with ex support and obliterate him out of existance.

[swift swan]

SS Hilbert is also an option

[full mesa]

Zeus' rodent.

[swift swan]

man, I wanted to run SST Red/SS Hilbert/Hau against Aaron, with the idea of Hau as my main nuker. but then Hau couldn't get crit

[full mesa]

Then how will he nuke?

[swift swan]

So I used these 2 rats and a plane

[full mesa]

Perfect

[river pagoda]

Between my Flint and Lucian teams, which would have more gauge issues? Lucian right? I alr got Aaron R2 Bertha R3 deciding whether Lucian or Flint R1/R4

[full mesa]

I used Misty in CS after a very long time.

[swift swan]

Lucian, yes

[toxic cobalt]

SS Blue should eliminate gauge issues

[swift swan]

both Rosa and Gordie are slow as heck

[river pagoda]

ya had a feeling

ill do lucian r4 then

ty

[toxic cobalt]

Nov came at this from the opposite angle

[full mesa]

Doesn't Lucian has wise entry x2 this week?

[river pagoda]

hilda

v create

gordie fire rebuff/sun

[swift swan]

Hilda's physical anyway

[river pagoda]

rosa just there for ex

[swift swan]

let me once again preach the wonders of Nessa + Masked Royal for dark-weak stages

it works WONDERS

[toxic cobalt]

Good to see an absolute pro on this channel

[full mesa]

Nessa/MR/?

[river pagoda]

[full mesa]

I used Skyla/Misty/Sidney and did Lucian on R1. After mid fall, sides wouldn't hit that hard.

[river pagoda]

yall were right the spatk debuffs did nothing

[keen jasper]

Man Lucian with them freeze hax

[hidden ore]

Whats the order for this week?
No Flint on r1 & r4?

[keen jasper]

I actually did Flint in R1

Tried out the brand new expanded grid Kris, and she works wonders

[hidden ore]

Wanted to use Glojo

[swift swan]

I don't think it matters much. just be careful with whoever you decide to fight R2

[hidden ore]

Hmm what most ppl choose for r2?

[swift swan]

I went with aaron

[hidden ore]

I thought of Aaron is, you read my mind 🤣

[swift swan]

he uses heal order right before his sync so you might as well let him use that early, when you haven't dished out a lot of damage

[keen jasper]

I did Aaron

[hidden ore]

I have Ash & Sst Red….so cakewalk it is?

[keen jasper]

I did BP Surge, Ash and SST Red for the full MF passive bonus

[hidden ore]

And what for r1?

[keen jasper]

Flint

[hidden ore]

I’m afraid of Bertha 😬

Ss Erika will faint so much

[keen jasper]

Nah, she too easy that I ended up with full HP against her

[hidden ore]

Which round and pair?

And params

[keen jasper]

SS Morty, SS Erika and Silver at R3 with max HP and offensive params

[hidden ore]

Presync?

[keen jasper]

Ye

In fact, I got to 2 syncs in before Bertha was at 1 sync CD

[hidden ore]

Hmm so Flint r1, Aaron r2, Bertga for 3 and Lucian for 4 it is?

All presync?

[keen jasper]

Thanks to SS Erika's Solar Propulsion

Ye

[sand karma]

Can Hau do electric weak cs2k?

[keen jasper]

Kinda yeah, if you have a crit and speed buffer for him

[sand karma]

I need to save Ash to offtype R5

[swift swan]

yes, under electric terrain and EX support

[keen jasper]

Do you have OG Lillie or BP Clemont?

[toxic cobalt]

What why?

[sand karma]

Nope : (

[keen jasper]

Ok, do you have Wally?

[hidden ore]

Is that ok?

[sand karma]

Roster nov 26 https://imgur.com/a/yMX0s0D

Look at this and have a good laugh

[keen jasper]

That's overkill honestly

[sand karma]

No that's the problem no Wally or no bea

[keen jasper]

Use Korrina then along with someone to buff accuracy

[sand karma]

Sonia and Volkner?

[sand karma]

I don't trust her to do 2k

[keen jasper]

Or use Solgaleo against Cynthia this week since Solgaleo has Impervious

And also, Solgaleo can buff its own accuracy as well, so you just need a crit buffer

[sand karma]

Is there a clear done with solgaleo before?

He didn't survive yesterday's cs at 1.7k

[toxic cobalt]

MC Sol has been 2king its entire life

[swift swan]

as much as I trash on Solgaleo and never use it for CS, it's actually good

[sand karma]

Oh wait i forgot he has a fighting move

[toxic cobalt]

Maybe I should use Sol. Can’t use Korrina every time.

[sand karma]

Any budget strikers for dark?

Both masked royal and Karen are 1/5

[swift swan]

bursts through door

Nessa

Jaw Lock Nessa my beloved

pair her with Masked Royal, maybe bring an EX support (though not necessary) and you're set

[sand karma]

She's also 1/5

[keen jasper]

I'm still not gonna use her

[toxic cobalt]

So?

[swift swan]

Doesn't matter

[sand karma]

Yay

Also is there a recommended order for rounds this week?

[swift swan]

not much. just watch out for round 2. we can't really recommend who's best to tackle at that round

[trail smelt]

Round 2 really depends on your best nuker, or if you're gonna buckle down and take the sync

[hidden ore]

This?
And also can I see Silver & Erika grids you used?

I’m on r3

I should change erika to #2 ik

[trail smelt]

I don’t think it matters much

I doubt they can take down SS Morty before the duo under permanent sun blasts past Bertha lol

[hidden ore]

I’m not sure of my Silver & Erika grids

[keen jasper]

SS Erika has sync nuke build while SS Morty is Solar Beam build

[dull yarrow]

Why is Karen doing no damage for me 🤣

Against Lucian

[hidden ore]

These are mine

[trail smelt]

Wise Entry x2 Lucian

[keen jasper]

Then remove Silver since you don't have his expanded grid

[trail smelt]

Karen gonna have her damage really diminished lol

[swift swan]

have you tried checking pins

[trail smelt]

Do you have Masked Royal or Sydney instead

[swift swan]

NESSA WORKS AS A DARK DPS TOO DON'T FORGET ABOUT HER

[hidden ore]

Did the grid come when Ss Ethan was around?
Whos better to replace?

[dull yarrow]

Yes I did lol, I forgot about Physical damage

[dull yarrow]

Yes, what about Morpeko

Gonna try Morpeko

[swift swan]

oh she should work

[chilly sparrow]

Does anyone have a good rotation video on Sunny team (erika, lyra and mallow) I can kill bertha but the 2 sides always kills me, all of the mare on 1/5

[nimble shell]

Lyra is not that good as a tank

Do you need mallow to kill?

[dull yarrow]

Yep, Morpeko worked

Power Trip OP

[hidden ore]

Nevermind, used Hilda and it paid off

[chilly sparrow]

hmm i just followed the recommended on the tips, though i have lodge blue, torterra and ex rosa and sceptile as other grass types

[chilly sparrow]

though i just realized that mallow is not doing the attack down sinnce no stats reduction is selected lol

[full mesa]

Dawn as a tank, Mallow as a striker, something to boost Mallow even more.

[hidden ore]

Ugh

[chilly sparrow]

ayt will try this setup thanks! will try oshawott as supp ty

[full mesa]

Hilbert. Yeah, he works.

[dull yarrow]

Grass weak was surprisingly easy

SS Lyra, SS Erika and SS Morty

[full mesa]

Focus on buffing Sidney spdef and speed. I did Skyla/Misty/Sidney

[main crow]

This is a very cracked team tbf

[trail smelt]

With that OP team you're surprised lol

[swift swan]

with that team? of course it is

[dull yarrow]

Impervious tank

[swift swan]

well tbf imo Bertha is quite easy

you take away her weather and you take away 90% of her power

[hidden ore]

Which Misty?
Already used Skyla

[dull yarrow]

To be fair, she was Flinched 100% of the time

[full mesa]

Misty. The one with the starfish.

[trail smelt]

If somebody just says the name it’s 90% of the time referring to the trainer without a moniker like Sygna suit

[nimble shell]

This is a T1 T0 team, ofc it's ez

[hidden ore]

But Misty has Psyduck too

[trail smelt]

That's Swimsuit Misty

Not Misty

[main crow]

Feels so satisfying she deserves this so much

[trail smelt]

Haha yeah I am goddamn loving the old unit power boosts so far

Cynthia, Karen, Kris, all great

Can't wait for Fantina

[dull yarrow]

How's this team for Cynthia

[trail smelt]

It's gonna absolutely murder Cynthia

[dull yarrow]

Based

[keen jasper]

Unless it misses

[dull yarrow]

Cynthia vs Cynthia

[trail smelt]

Though some small gauge issues

[keen jasper]

[rigid flint]

Cynthia is dead

[dull yarrow]

[trail smelt]

But hey Move Gauge Boost is there

[dull yarrow]

Should I bring someone else instead of Bea?

[trail smelt]

Nah

[nimble shell]

I use the fire dog on 3rd slot

I forgor the name totally, both trainer and Pokémon

[trail smelt]

Evelyn?

[dull yarrow]

Evelyn?

[nimble shell]

Yaya, 6 speed in 2 round

[keen jasper]

Depends, if you're not worried about the accuracy debuff, then don't change your team

[trail smelt]

OH

you mean Marley

[rigid flint]

SSA Cynthia has gauge acceleration doesn't she

At 3/5

[trail smelt]

She does yeah

[keen jasper]

2/5

[dull yarrow]

I should bring Sygna Suit Serena for the Master Passive 😂

Anyway gonna do the stage, still report back

[nimble shell]

I'm so bad at names 💀

[swift swan]

pick perma field effects param and use cynthia's buddy move for perma MGA

[rigid flint]

Ah

[storm moss]

Anyone able to help with Lucien for MM?

[swift swan]

why are y'all calling entei a dog what

[nimble shell]

I use field eff on Bertha and just 6 speed with Marley

[trail smelt]

I mean what the heck is Entei

[swift swan]

you need physical moves because Lucian doubles his base special defense

[trail smelt]

It doesn't look like anything

[swift swan]

??? it is a lion

[trail smelt]

WHAT

[nimble shell]

Lion?

[trail smelt]

HOW IS THAT A LION

[nimble shell]

Ya it looks kinda like lion lol

[trail smelt]

It doesn't look like a damn lion

[swift swan]

the legendary beasts are all modeled after some sort of cat. entei is a lion, raikou is a saber-toothed tiger, suicune is a leopard

but we're straying from CS territory lol

but I will fight anyone who calls them legendary dogs

[trail smelt]

Raikou is obvious but no way in hell is Entei a damn lion

Anyway they're the legendary Gerbils

[dull yarrow]

Yep that's exactly what I did

Cynthia was dead before she even got an attack off 🤣

[storm moss]

All my darks are special ahaha

[rigid flint]

Do you have Nessa?

[dull yarrow]

Do you have Marnie and Morpeko?

[nimble shell]

Use bite with houndoom

[rigid flint]

Yo bite dps

[trail smelt]

Don't we have more physial darks than we do speials?

[dull yarrow]

BP Karen can also work

[nimble shell]

Sidney pog

40k sync

[trail smelt]

Ugh I hated BP Karen

So much pain trying to use her

[storm moss]

WAIT
I have 3/5 Sydney 🤭

[dark osprey]

where them Nanu fans at

[nimble shell]

Recoil move just feel weird

[rigid flint]

kejfhe;slhgalw/ghi/el

[trail smelt]

Yeah use that dude lol. His sync is insane

[nimble shell]

Sodjajdudis

[rigid flint]

U had 3/5 sidney this whole time

[dull yarrow]

Sidney is good yeah

[rigid flint]

But yeah use sidney

He do big damage with sync

[nimble shell]

Wot, why even try Karen at first

[trail smelt]

Funnily enough

[nimble shell]

Just Sidney and 1 shot everything

[trail smelt]

Sinnoh has Wise Entry Dark Weak

Whereas Hoenn has Sentry Entry Dark Weak

[rigid flint]

In case of sentry entry x2 ofc

.... that's in hoenn cs

[trail smelt]

Our special darks are uh

Karen and SN?

Oh and CyruSS

[dull yarrow]

Easy

[nimble shell]

Btw how y'all tank flint?

[main crow]

🙌

I should actually try that lmao

[trail smelt]

KriSS don't care

[dull yarrow]

SS Kris

[nimble shell]

I spend all on Lyra back then, no kris

[trail smelt]

Ah too bad

[nimble shell]

I give 3 try with barry

[trail smelt]

There are plenty of other solid tanks at least

[nimble shell]

And proceed using ssgio

[rigid flint]

Ah the classic

When in doubt use ss gio

Honestly it works

[nimble shell]

Ya, have deoxy and redpika chilling back there too

[trail smelt]

... oh right

if Steel Weak Glacia is giving me troubles I can just unleash Ash on her lol

[nimble shell]

I can actually off type all 5 cs

[trail smelt]

tbqh with all the OP units we got recently it's more likely you'll have an easier time offtyping than ontyping

[spring fable]

Only managed to do 4K mm last week, is this week more difficult?

[trail smelt]

As usual, depends on your roster

Electric Weak Aaron in particular is VERY annoying

Because of Sentry Entry x2

[spring fable]

Looks like a pikachu kinda stage

But I’m more afraid of grass weak

Dark weak too since Karen is special and my Sydney is only 1/5

[chilly sparrow]

should i kill bertas sidekick when shes really low? both sidekicks do earthquake that literally kill all my units lol 😄

[spring fable]

Have you changed the weather

[undone ether]

Change the weather

I was prepared for multi weathervsheningans

But after using my 2 sun mprefreshes thats all u need lol

[verbal karma]

inhales

[trail smelt]

You'll get them all next time

[verbal karma]

Now is next time, though, so...

[trail smelt]

Oh you haven't done it?

Good luck

[verbal karma]

How much do I need to change from last week?

[trail smelt]

Hmm Poison... I don't suppose you got BP Janine?

[spring fable]

Damn I’m jealous of your mons

[verbal karma]

Thanks, but I am jealous of other people's mons, too

[verbal karma]

...BP Janine?

[main crow]

Zamn looks all those EXs 👁️ 👁️

[verbal karma]

Okay, just checked

Sorry, no BP Janine

[dull yarrow]

I have 94 EX's, will have 98 soon, once the two Greninja's, Jasmine and Fantina come out

[chilly sparrow]

hope all

[trail smelt]

Well Poison is a bit annoying to slot in to your team because of how they work haha

[undone ether]

Wew i used the same as u

Just diff enuff pairs xd

[verbal karma]

My best bet when it comes to the missing types

[undone ether]

Bunny may is support rite?

[main crow]

No she's strike

[verbal karma]

Anyway, who in which team should be replaced with whom?

[undone ether]

Otherwise run leafeon, bunny may and dawn

[spring fable]

Would this work?

Not expecting to clear anything more than 4K I think

[main crow]

Why are you bringing special buffers to Flint?

Kris is physical

[spring fable]

Oops

[keen jasper]

You can definitely 2k all of them

[spring fable]

I replaced it Roxanne with torchic

[spring fable]

Any recommended order?

Also what’s a 400 pt run I can do

[keen jasper]

Think about who you wanna use for round 3

[spring fable]

Oh I also need a grid for Kris, dont think the sync grid doc is updated

Aaron r3 for sure

[main crow]

Assuming your Kris is grided and 3/5 she wants the speed for inertia

May want to keep the Roxanne around

[spring fable]

I can shift falkner up

[trail smelt]

Round 2 is the most dangerous one

Because of half sync

[spring fable]

Lucian
Flint
Aaron
Bertha?

[full mesa]

I did Lucian>Aaron>Flint>Bertha.

[swift swan]

SSB lmao

#1011173305702690876 message here's my clear. Lucian, Aaron, Bertha, Flint

[hidden ore]

@keen jasper what did you use for Lucian?

[keen jasper]

Round 4

[hidden ore]

Doing him on r4 now, 3 tries and idk what to bring or adjust params

I try sth for Absol

[swift swan]

NESSA + MASKED ROYAL DOES WONDERS

[keen jasper]

I did BP Clemont, MR and EX Sonia

[swift swan]

I vouch for Nessa DPS

[manic kiln]

i'm busy this week so someone else will do the schedule infographic

[trail smelt]

I used MR Sydney Faitlin

[spring fable]

Cleared 4K MM this week again… made some changes because struggled along the way

Lucian, flint, Aaron, Bertha

[swift swan]

All of those look great!

Nice job

[spring fable]

Thanks!

Just sad I didn’t manage to get the extra spirits

[swift swan]

They're not much of an EX bottleneck anyway

Plus that new Neo Champion Stadium event will give as first time rewards too

and I have a feeling we're gonna get jumpscared by Kalos CS next month

[spring fable]

I have a feeling I can barely do those

[swift swan]

Well good news is, Hoenn is a newer CS than Sinnoh and it's still more manageable

Sinnoh is just a shitstorm

[spring fable]

Wew

Here’s me hoping I can clear 850 at least

[trail smelt]

They what now

[verbal karma]

...anyone? I remember someone telling me last week that one of the sync pairs in one of the teams can be replaced with Bunny May, but I don't remember who in which team...not to mention I don't know if that is still accurate with the NEW rules

[nimble shell]

Bunnymay is a striker, they look pretty solid to me
Maybe you can change grimsley to may for this week fighting weakness?

Cause another 4 team atker are on pretty high ceiling compared to grimsley

[mellow linden]

Triple Elesa team beats Aaron handily

Very pleased

[main crow]

First week steel weak Glacia

[frosty axle]

Here is my F2P run for this weeks Sinnoh 10k MM #1039196490935062538 message

[swift swan]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[trail smelt]

Oh they trolling LMAO

[swift swan]

and bug-weak sidney too?

come here then, I'm ready to throttle him with my ss hilbert + alder combo

[nimble shell]

Why panic on steel weak glacie?

[swift swan]

OOOOH and ice-weak drake is the one with wise entry x2

gross

[swift swan]

sentry entry x2

[mellow linden]

Steel weak Glacia = SS Hilda time

[swift swan]

slanders almost all steel damage dealers

[nimble shell]

Ssgio will do the work for me

[main crow]

Just off type

[toxic cobalt]

I haven’t won a battle yet but I’m having so much fun!

[steel kelp]

Yuul this week easy

[mellow linden]

Dupe trainer update is gonna allow me to have some of the most fun in this game, yeah. Already got my eye on double Skyla for Flying weak Sidney

[nimble shell]

Ya ez 10k

[toxic cobalt]

This exactly

So many new teams

[mellow linden]

Aw wait, no Poison weak Wallace

That sucks

[nimble shell]

Almost on type all 5

If only I didn't forgot abt my ssblue

[full mesa]

I'm going to have so much fan destroying some specific Hoenn stages next month.

[toxic cobalt]

Sad to report Potionchu can’t take down Aaron

[main crow]

Sheesh why is her hp so bloated lol

[trail smelt]

Dark weak Phoebe also has sentry entry x2 right?

[main crow]

Yup

[verbal karma]

Wait, my entire previous teams won't work

Everyone has new weaknesses, too

[main crow]

Karen's houndoom time

[verbal karma]

...okay, anyone got a list of this week's effect? I gotta create a battle plan for this week

[trail smelt]

It’s pinned

Round 2’s half sync is the most dangerous one

[vital gazelle]

is it hoenn next month?

[trail smelt]

Plan ahead

[trail smelt]

Yep!

[vital gazelle]

nice

[trail smelt]

Scroll up for the list of weaknesses

[verbal karma]

Thanks

[vital gazelle]

was hoping it was hoenn

the other ones minus sinnoh are a little boring

[verbal karma]

This team any good for a R1 Aaron? Or would SS Elesa actually benefit from the R2 effects?

...is Aaron even a good R1? Or is it someone else?

[mellow linden]

Round 1 works for basically anyone so long as you can survive longer than the opponent

[grand trout]

Lol here I was avoiding red for aaron until his max move decimated him like nothing 💀

[trail smelt]

I have bad feelings about that Aaron team, but hey if it works it works

[grand trout]

Why brock?

[main crow]

Roxanne might be good here

[mellow linden]

Probably for type medal

[verbal karma]

Ah, as a damage sponge, right?

[void wyvern]

Wise entry x2 ice weak Drake always made no sense to me.

[main crow]

Yeah and she can buff sp atk, sp def, speed and def

[verbal karma]

...wait

[mellow linden]

Mostly for her buffs, actually. Sp. Atk., Speed, and Defense

[main crow]

She's not the tankiest but it may help out

[verbal karma]

I already have SS Elesa on the first order

[grand trout]

Sp def too

With grid

[verbal karma]

Due to her evade play

[mellow linden]

So Roxanne is 2nd target, easy

[grand trout]

I wish Roxanne has a better mpr on guard but hey

She works

[verbal karma]

Okay, for R2, I'd need to find someone who'd benefit the MOST from halved sync countdowns...

[grand trout]

Show your team

Is this hard or master mode?

[verbal karma]

Hard

I haven't unlocked Master yet (am about to, though)

[grand trout]

Aight, who are your mons, the choices and type reqs

[main crow]

Any striker you have EXed and an easy multiplier to reach

[grand trout]

And the remaining e4?

[verbal karma]

I haven't started this week yet

Only last week

[grand trout]

No i mean like

You said r2 right

Who was your r1

This was just 4 months man

Mods pin this pls.

[full mesa]

First week is a menace...

[eternal lodge]

bug weak sidney, as always ill have to offtype that

[mellow linden]

SSR Cynthia + SS Korrina, the dynamic duo back in action

[keen jasper]

Water-weak on the first week, meant to demonstrate the Kalos Champion protags

[mellow linden]

Definitely

To a lesser extent Dark weak Phoebe as well

For Rebuff/Zone

[full mesa]

Bug weak Sidney, Sentry entry x2 Dark weak Phoebe, Sentry entry x2 Ice weak Drake, Sentry entry x2 Steel weak Glacia...

[full mesa]

I'll try rebuff with Sidney nuke.

[mellow linden]

Lot of Candices will be around next week

[keen jasper]

Also, steel-weak Glacia, meant to demonstrate Raihan's expanded grid

[full mesa]

How about new Ghetsis boost?

[mellow linden]

Probably him too, yeah

[main crow]

Drake is wise entry

[full mesa]

Even worse...

I'll have to off type almost everything.

[mellow linden]

Meanwhile, I got Holiday Nessa + Candice for Drake

[main crow]

Candice is right there

She's doable for 2k

[full mesa]

I haven't built her yet.

Off-type and poison stall.

[keen jasper]

Fairy-weak Sidney, a certain Hoenn rival is looking at him

[full mesa]

I think I hate Hoenn more than Sinnoh.

[eternal lodge]

for drake i got ss brock to nuke it, only real problem i see is sidney, i either go pheromosa or offtype

[main crow]

Certain rival? Nah man Sycamore DPS is where it's at

[keen jasper]

#1009554906568462476 message
Pin this pls.

[mellow linden]

Meanwhile, me with Diantha + Skyla + Teapot Lillie

[manic kiln]

bruh that pic is pixelated

[trail smelt]

Honesty not feeling my bug and steel teams but eh

[keen jasper]

Well, I did get it from someone from Eevee's server

[trail smelt]

Cerena gonna replace Kris

[keen jasper]

Which Kris?

[swift swan]

not if I don't pull for her

[trail smelt]

Kris

[manic kiln]

and they all get them from twitter, usually i'll upload the original but I didn't do it this week, let me ask

[trail smelt]

In my team

[main crow]

You sure with that Steven lineup? He has Sentry entry

[trail smelt]

Like I have a choice LMAO

[main crow]

Siebold is right there

[trail smelt]

Siebold ain’t steel

[main crow]

I'm talking abt Steven stage lol

Not the steel stage

[trail smelt]

Oh that

Cerena is replacing Kris

[main crow]

Ah okay

Phoebe's bloated HP is so funny but it prob ain't gonna be a big deal

[mellow linden]

Karen is just gonna shred Phoebe like last time

[keen jasper]

I wanna try SS Gio against steel-weak Glacia

[full mesa]

Said as they took out the most broken dark unit

[mellow linden]

I'm just gonna off-type with SS Hilda (or maybe even Champ Serena if I get her by then)

[main crow]

Would've used Karen if mine is 3/5 but alas

[full mesa]

Next week will be an issue for me.

[last palm]

try to optimize team for Cs but it always recommended Morty

[trail smelt]

LMAO

[main crow]

Wait I just noticed KriSS is on 2 teams lmao

[manic kiln]

here, better quality

[keen jasper]

Thanks

[mellow linden]

I'm miffed that they decided to not do Poison weak Wallace after Roxie grid

[toxic cobalt]

Last two months have been super lame

[verbal karma]

I haven't done R1 yet

I am still doing the planning

[main crow]

Aight I'm most likely going to pre sync this and I'm not exactly sure who to bring for support

Bringing someone who can buff sp atk and speed

[toxic cobalt]

Roxanne/?

[main crow]

Thinking of her yeah

I would hope she at least survives a few attacks

[swift swan]

I'm miffed that they decided to do Sinnoh and Hoenn back-to-back

and a potential Kalos CS in January too

[main crow]

Would be funny ngl

Brutal CS back to back

[keen jasper]

I guess these will be my teams next week

[swift swan]

oh boy, Imma be doing write-ups for Hoenn too

and then analyze the Kalos CS gimmicks...

[swift swan]

meanwhile me, who plans teams 1 day before reset

[old orchid]

wait, we have Kalos CS?

[trail smelt]

Not yet

[swift swan]

they're adding a lot of pokemon models that are most likely be used in Kalos CS

the way they added hoenn mons 1 month before hoenn CS

[old orchid]

oh i thought i missed something in the datamine

[swift swan]

this is just all speculation and those kalos mons might not be used until much later

and we might just go back to easy CS regions in January

but who knows. I'd love a new CS

because of the custom E4 music

[old orchid]

CS lvl2 when

[main crow]

Your services will not be in vain you are a savior to many 🫡

[swift swan]

DeNA: sike, we're gonna introduce this Neo Champion Stadium and refuse to elaborate

it's an event right... right... not a new game mode

definitely not a new game mode

[void wyvern]

I have no idea. They’re making it sound like both.

[toxic cobalt]

Sounds like a repeating event, like LG

[green path]

Next week should be fun.

[swift swan]

what's stopping you from EXing the other two Grimsleys

[devout sluice]

I’m in a issue right now, stuck with quick countdowns on Bertha Flint and Lucian at max damage.

[swift swan]

oof

hmmm

what are your teams

[halcyon sail]

I just 2k offtyped Aaron with SSWally, he's such a beast

[void wyvern]

SS wally my beloved

[devout sluice]

I need to check.

Physical Damage reduction power hit 1 attack and special attack 5 strength 2 power hit 2 strength 3 ally gauge and strength 6

[void wyvern]

Show us your team.

[mellow linden]

Could try the pinned post-Sync parameters on Bertha, but yeah, we'd need to see your team(s)

[green path]

OG Grimsley has EX, prefer this outfit, the other one isn’t dark type😭

[devout sluice]

For Bertha:

Flint:

[swift swan]

that's too much strength and attack lumped together

don't stack too much of them together

pick one or the other

[devout sluice]

For Lucian I haven’t tested out fall Caitlin

Well, any ideas?

[mellow linden]

Unless your damage-dealer needs Fall Caitlin I wouldn't automatically place her as better for the Support just due to being Dark type

[swift swan]

it's already strength 11, so why not go for strength 12 and ditch the attack 5 entirely? you can get the remaining 50 points with special damage reduction shield

[devout sluice]

I’m still thinking of a better parameter

[swift swan]

You need physical attacks for Lucian. Nessa + Masked Royal do wonders.

[trail smelt]

Lucian has Wise Entry so prepare accordingly

[mellow linden]

There's recommended parameters in the pins

[swift swan]

it's half sync countdown, not much option but to postsync it unless you have an insane nuker that can KO Bertha on first sync

well... I don't have SC Rosa, but I'm sure if she's set up correctly, she can oneshot bertha

[trail smelt]

I know one guy managed to push CyruSS past Lucian but he’s got sleep and dark zone

[swift swan]

I just don't know how hard or easy she is to set up in the limited time you have

[steel kelp]

Is Bertha r2 that bad? I did Lucian r2

[mellow linden]

Not really. I did Bertha Round 2 just fine

[swift swan]

I did aaron R2 lmao

[void wyvern]

Depends on your ability to nuke

[mellow linden]

It's just that for Round 2 you have to do post-Sync unless you've got a super fast nuke

[swift swan]

no one's that bad I'd say. it all depends on your team comps

[trail smelt]

Like

[void wyvern]

Let’s assume you can’t nuke any of them. Who is the best to post sync

[trail smelt]

I had Aaron R2 lol

[swift swan]

thinking back, I could've done bertha R2 and just... flinchlock her with ss lyra but what would be the fun in that

[trail smelt]

I let him sync on me too

[steel kelp]

I don’t even remember if I did post sync parameter

I did Bertha r1 with SS lyra

[swift swan]

me too lmao. using hyper offensive presync params, even

[trail smelt]

My electric team tanked the hit and killed him after lol

[steel kelp]

Presync params and aaron did nothing to my electric team

[swift swan]

My bet would go to Lucian or Aaron

Aaron is so vulnerable to debuffs

it's so easy to debuff his offenses to oblivion

Meanwhile Flint, you really don't wanna extend the battle because of good form and rising tide, plus the stage just keeps debuffing you

and bertha just Hits Hard ™️ . also she has sand tomb, how annoying

well of course, this also depends on your comps

I wouldn't mind postsyncing bertha with ss lyra by my side

[steel kelp]

Debuffs don’t mean anything if you’re physical

[pure pond]

Anyone wanna help me out? I thought about Zekrom Team for Aaron and Palkia for Flint

I'm not sure about the others

[trail smelt]

Zekrom’s piercing blows can’t go through Aaron’s Sentry Entry x2

[keen jasper]

Why are you using a physical unit on an enemy with Sentry Entry x2?

[steel kelp]

Just hit hard

Then sentry entry won’t matter

[keen jasper]

Though I guess SS Wally can still damage cap fairy-weak Cynthia even with Wise Entry x2

[devout sluice]

Shoot didn’t max out my parameters.

[trail smelt]

I mean you can do it, lord knows I managed to get Elesa past Aaron

But it was UNIMAGINABLE PAIN

[steel kelp]

SST red for me

[trail smelt]

SST Red is broken beyond measure lol

[void wyvern]

Gonna use oak

[devout sluice]

I gotta do it all over again…. I haven’t reached 10k

[swift swan]

I remember seeing SS Elesa Thunder DPS on Aaron

eye-opening

well, you can say it's

Breathtaking

[pure pond]

@keen jasper @trail smelt idk what that sentry entry x2 is but it worked, whatever

thanks, anyway

[void wyvern]

You need a leg up with your puns

[devout sluice]

Ok time to try this again, I’m getting rid of flint first.

[swift swan]

definitely presync Flint as quickly as possible

[verbal karma]

I still need help, BTW

[void wyvern]

Have you completed any of the battles?

[verbal karma]

This week? No

[void wyvern]

That’s good.

[verbal karma]

Last week? Yes

[void wyvern]

Good good.

[verbal karma]

I figured SS Elesa/Hau/Roxanne would be a potential team against Aaron for Round 1, but I still need a good Round 2 team

[void wyvern]

Show us your supports first

I want to see what we’re cooking with

[verbal karma]

One that can make good use of accelerated sync attacks

[void wyvern]

It’s a little disorganized. Can you filter it by support/striker/tech?

Just helps me focus a bit

[verbal karma]

Oh

[verbal karma]

For the strikers, I'll do you one better: all strikers that have this week's type advantage

All techs with the types I am missing

[void wyvern]

Ash, Roxanne Janine should work against Aaron round 2

[verbal karma]

All the supports with the types I am missing

[devout sluice]

I gotta debuff flint

I can’t take it anymore

[void wyvern]

For Flint you can do classic Gio Kris, and Rachel

[devout sluice]

That’s the problem, I don’t have Rachel

[void wyvern]

Talking to trin

[verbal karma]

Oh

Flint is R2?

Stupid internet!!!!!

[void wyvern]

Hehe.

For Bertha we can just put ss Erika on the team and someone can off type it

Probably ss Hilda

[devout sluice]

Off type done the job on flint round 1

Now I can get rid of the countdown on Aaron

Then the rest will be easy, except for Cynthia and her no good accuracy debuff

[sick stump]

just an FYI Zoroark can easily break Wise Entry, but needs 3/5 and likely wants Dark Zone so that's kind of redundant

[void wyvern]

For Flint you can do classic Gio Kris, and Rachel

Ash, Roxanne Janine should work against Aaron round 2

Lucian can be Sidney aaron blue

Bertha can be off typed by Ss Hilda, Erika and any tank.

Cynthia can be done with SSA Cynthia and bea plus a speed support. @verbal karma

[steel kelp]

Just bring like Lillie or someone with impervious for Cynthia

[void wyvern]

That covers everything

[devout sluice]

I don’t have dark zone

[sick stump]

I could test without dark zone for you

[devout sluice]

Sure thing. Meanwhile I’ll face Aaron and Bertha

[sick stump]

what team are you planning on using for him

so I can replicate as close as possible

[void wyvern]

You don’t need dark zone for Lucian

I think

[devout sluice]

Let me check

[verbal karma]

So wait, if Aaron is R2, then who is R1?

[devout sluice]

For 3rd, 5/5 Zoroark. 2nd be Caitlin Fall and 1st is SC Lillie

[swift swan]

special moves? lucian has wise entry x2

[devout sluice]

Actually, switch SC Lille to 2nd

[void wyvern]

Flint

[verbal karma]

Oh

[devout sluice]

Both sides were almost dead.

[void wyvern]

Flint, Aaron, Bertha, Lucian.

[devout sluice]

So I think it’ll work, even with wise entry 2

[sick stump]

I'll test now due to how good Zoroark is at 5/5 I think mine should clear easily

[devout sluice]

At Lucian now

[sick stump]

what round

[devout sluice]

Mines 5/5 also. Let’s both test this out. Round 4

[sick stump]

mmk

[devout sluice]

It works alright.

[sick stump]

It's easy for me

Though, I did it round 1 since I finished CS 💀

I can't imagine the outcome would be much different on 4?

[devout sluice]

Now to win round 5

[halcyon sail]

This was surprisingly an easy 10k

Steel Bertha remains the hardest by far

[full mesa]

SSteven will off-type yet again

[devout sluice]

Clutch sync at the last second on fighting zone

[violet timber]

1/5 Ash did not just do a 99.5k Buddy Thunderbolt against Aaron

I cannot believe my eyes

[verbal karma]

Flint for R1? With the team you suggested? Bad idea

[void wyvern]

Why didn’t it work?

[verbal karma]

Flint's sync attack insta-kills both Classic Gio and Kris

[void wyvern]

Ahhhh I see why I failed. I forgot to include grids

[verbal karma]

oh

sorry, but I can't grid

I ran out of sync orbs

[void wyvern]

Why not?

Well, that makes things a lot more difficult

[verbal karma]

I gridded out Classic Gio, but I couldn't finish gridding out Rachel

no idea if I ever gridded out Kris

[void wyvern]

It’s more or less Kris who needs the grid here

As she should be able to melt down mid with her sync

[verbal karma]

seems like I already had Kris gridded out a long time ago

[void wyvern]

Don’t worry easy fix

Let me grab a suitable grid

This should solve all your problems

If you don’t have enough stones, you can lose critical focus and first aid

[verbal karma]

thanks, updated the sync grid

Classic Gio dying so quickly concerns me, though

[violet timber]

Take the free +20 attack nodes

[void wyvern]

Use gio’s tm and then max crit, use Kris’s x attack, mega kick, into her tm. Use x speed with Rachel

[verbal karma]

dw, I did

[void wyvern]

If gio is dying and it scares you. Use Rachel’s tm to heal him

[violet timber]

This is what I used

Sorry May fans I keep forgetting to EX her lol

[void wyvern]

Justice for may

[swift swan]

Same

[keen jasper]

That's power of plot armor for ya

[violet timber]

she is now 17/20

I have plenty of champion spirits

[violet timber]

I forgot Cynthia was fighting weak this week so I had to makeshift a team for Bea lol

Used her on Aaron

[verbal karma]

With Flint done, I am now at Aaron, and I was initially suggested this team instead

is it better or worse than your suggestion?

[void wyvern]

Where will you use poison?

And ash is absolutely broken. After sync B thunderbolt will delete aaron.

[violet timber]

can confirm…

I think if move level is higher I can legit hit a 99999 in master mode

[verbal karma]

The Suggestion never went further than that, sadly

[austere quest]

Are the rewards always the same for each Regions CSMM? Like Sinnoh always rewards Support Tokens etc

[violet timber]

Think I got a tech coin last week

wasn’t support last week iirc

[austere quest]

I don’t remember getting a tech coin for this CSMM

[steel kelp]

it was support coin this week

[verbal karma]

hhhhhhhh

Bertha insta-merc's SS Hilda with her Sync Attack

Round 2 and 3 were easy in comparison

[mellow linden]

What parameters and team are you using?

Ah, I see the team except the tank

What tank/parameters?

[verbal karma]

the tank is Lyra & Meganium

...probably a bad idea in hindsight, actually

considering Lyra is bad at tanking physical

...yeah, I'll switch her with Rosa

[mellow linden]

Probably, yeah

[verbal karma]

maybe that will help

[mellow linden]

Ideally use someone with Defense buffs since SS Hilda and SS Erika are actually self-sufficient

Rosa doesn’t provide anything to the team anyways

[verbal karma]

...oh...I use regular Erika...

[mellow linden]

Well that’s also a problem

Because it means no one to replace Sandstorm

[verbal karma]

well, the suggestion did say "Erika" and not "SS Erika"

so I thought they meant vanilla Erika

[mellow linden]

They almost certainly intended SS Erika. No big deal, miscommunication happens

[verbal karma]

hoo boy, time to build SS Erika then...without being able to grid her...

[mellow linden]

Eh, with SS Hilda on the team as well you should be fine

It’s not ideal, but it shouldn’t prevent you from clearing

[digital mauve]

this seemed like an easy week

[last palm]

yup everyweek easy now when you have powercreep unit

[winged scaffold]

I was about to win and I got 2 Earthquake Crits

From a sandslash

[mellow linden]

It do be like that sometimes

[keen jasper]

That's just bad luck

Is all

[verbal karma]

hmm...SS Erika, SS Hilda and Rosa is...somewhat better...but still not good enough...

[mellow linden]

Do you have anyone who can buff Defense?

[ivory pagoda]

Unlocked master mode!

yay for me

[verbal karma]

depends...who can do that?

[ivory pagoda]

ssBlue

[mellow linden]

You can search via filters

[verbal karma]

wait, filters allow that now, too?

[main crow]

They always have?

[mellow linden]

Search All Allies and Raises Defense under Known Moved

Afaik that’s always been a thing

[verbal karma]

damn, I never knew...

[verbal karma]

oh hey, Dawn seems like a good pick?

[winged scaffold]

Last mon red health

[mellow linden]

Dawn can work, yeah

Gauge might be a little messy, but since you’re doing post-Sync anyways it shouldn’t be that bad

[winged scaffold]

Fiiiiiinally

[verbal karma]

alright, if I want Bea for the Cynthia battle, then I'd need the R4 buff, correct? After all, the only move her Sirfetch'd knows consumes 4 move gauge bars

[main crow]

I personally believe permanent field effect parameter would be better
