Have u tried any stall options

swift swan
#

tbf you don't benefit anything from Glacia R1 and it will even mess with your quadqueue

bleak eagle
#

Havent tried stall, dont know if i can offtype

#

I could send my box if that helps

blazing narwhal
#

If an opponent “sets zone before sync” but there’s half sync countdown parameter will they still set it right before sync?

blazing narwhal

#

2k Drake how beat?

keen jasper
#

Secondly, all of his attacks are physical so bring a defense buffer for your team

tulip rover
#

I’m thinking hail team.

keen jasper
#

Third, he has Wise Entry x2, so special damage dealer are rendered ineffective

tulip rover
#

I’m thinking Hau Hala or Ice N.

keen jasper
tulip rover
#

I feel the challenge with a mandatory hail setter and striker I’m limited for my third slot.

tulip rover
#

I think I’ll go with SS Blue. Just don’t know the best hail setter to use.

#

If only Bea could set hail again…

#

This is so cheap. I can’t finish him off before the first sync and his entire team starts using AoE stuff.

keen jasper
tulip rover
#

The primary attacker uses AOE just doesn’t feel fair. Defeats the purpose of having a tank.

#

Needing a way to mitigate sandstorm also handicaps me further.

keen jasper
tulip rover
keen jasper
#

Seems like a literal waste of 2 good supports

tulip rover
#

I needed someone to eliminate sand post sync so Morty. Maybe a different defense buffer would have helped but that endure on sync helped.

keen jasper

#

Glacia is my only concern now. I should be able to handle the rest.

#

Poor Steven has been powercrept.

swift swan
#

It's rare for the champion to be the hardest stage, here in Pokemon Masters EX

full mesa
#

Firstly because you know the field effect they use and you can choose one more of the ones you already fought, making the odds better for you. Secondly, it's because most Champions don't have ridiculous gimmicks and lastly, it's the last battle so you can use all your leftover overpower units to decimate them.

keen jasper
#

Damn lodge May

boreal rose
#

Who to use for r3 and r4 of hoenn cs?

#

2k

#

I have Sidney and Glacia left

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

I did Phoebe

keen jasper
#

Well, then use him for Sidney

#

Oh wait NVM

#

It's dark to dark

boreal rose
#

Im planning on leaving Dojo Gloria to Steven

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Pre or post sync?

keen jasper
#

I'd say you can YOLO Glacia with Ash

boreal rose
#

Ok so Sidney sets zone i see

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

(ignore Darach's mp

#

My brain went stupid)

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Why?

#

It does nothing

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

But its Bug weak

zealous karma
keen jasper
zealous karma
#

She doesn’t debuff SpDef lel

keen jasper
zealous karma
# boreal rose

I recommend bugsy and Noland for bug (together) guzma especially if not Ex is worse than bugsy

keen jasper
#

Yeah, sorry picking Guzma, but I'm not sorry for picking Darach

#

Darach literally helps against Sidney

boreal rose
#

But he is flying

keen jasper
#

What does that have to do with anything?

boreal rose
#

And he dors 1k damage

#

And dies by his own attacks

keen jasper
#

Since you're not gonna be using him for DPS anyways

boreal rose
#

Bug moves

keen jasper
#

Yeah, Guzma is your best option here unless you wanna use Bugsy or Noland

zealous karma
#

Grids are at the end of the video

keen jasper
#

Like I said, spam Feather Dance until Sidney is about to use his dark zone

boreal rose
#

I tried doing it with Gladion...i failed

zealous karma
#

Gladions sync unless Ex is prolly worse than bugsy even with Ex probably still might be worse sadly

boreal rose
keen jasper
#

It seems that me going all out on SC Emmet's banner when I was a beginner wasn't a bad idea after all

zealous karma
#

I don’t need any fancy bug units I’m happy with bugsy and waiting on his ex 🦑

boreal rose
#

Ngl. Bugsy looks cool. Even tho i like his Voice Actor and like different character she voices on Busgy it kinda sounds horrible

#

Maybe cuz Bugsy has the same (literally and not) voice as Bennett. A Genshin character i dislike

zealous karma
#

I highly recommend investing into bugsy even if you dislike his voice he’s a great F2P bug unit but there is also Noland 🦑

frosty axle
#

both of them are great together

frosty axle
#

yes

boreal rose
frosty axle
#

Not a sync nuke grid are you just going for damage?

boreal rose
#

First sync death for bugsy

boreal rose
#

Idk wtf a grid needs tho

frosty axle
#

also 3* will never survive you want 5*

boreal rose
#

Oh

frosty axle
#

Beedrill stats in defense aren't great like Pinsir

zealous karma
#

I posted the grids in my video I posted a jibe

#

I also pre sunced

frosty axle
#

also swift ignores Evasion which can be annoying

zealous karma
boreal rose
#

HildaCry why must my internet suck now

#

What did you send?

zealous karma
#

The grids that I used

boreal rose
#

I see 1,5

#

Il try streamable vid

#

The vid you snet i mean

zealous karma
#

Alr 🦑

frosty axle
#

that's exact same Beedrill grid I use
same with Pinsir

boreal rose
#

I skipped yes

zealous karma
#

Is it loading

#

It’s more forward

#

It starts at the like 1:40 mark

#

Here’s the grids in poma tools

#

Poma tools works remotely I know that for a fact cause I always use it when my school blocks out my wifi so lel

peak stirrup
#

Who can I pair with round 4 Karen vs Phoebe

#

Was thinking BP Erika for trap and poison but idk

zealous karma
peak stirrup
zealous karma
#

It’s because the stage has sentry entry x2

#

And unless your masked Royal is ex and has ex support Goodluck getting him to kill center mon

#

Karen was meant for the stage lel

peak stirrup
#

Right so you need to use special and Karen is special Striker

zealous karma
#

Do you have SSLyra 💀

peak stirrup
#

Celebi?

zealous karma
#

Ye

peak stirrup
#

Yes
Sorry with all the Sygna suits I forgot who gets which Mon

zealous karma
#

Would you like for me to record a clear for you?

peak stirrup
#

Who do you pair with them?

zealous karma
#

Karen(Houndoom) SSElesa(rotom) SSLyra(celebi)

peak stirrup
#

Ok I’ll try it out

zealous karma
#

If things get tough I have a clear alrwady recorded and I can just post it here

trail smelt
#

I used Sydney/Karen/CCalem

#

Before that the support was Faitlin

#

Beat Phoebe very easily

rigid flint
#

I used Karen, Elio and Red

zealous karma
#

CCalem isn’t exactly widely available

#

I beat it with SSLyra EleSSa and Karen

trail smelt
#

You say that THEN you include SS Lyra LMAO

#

At last mine can still be pulled for at the moment

zealous karma
trail smelt
#

Haha yeah but funny out of that context

Oh I was fine with 95 but 100 is perfect

manic mica
#

Which order did you guys battle this elite four?

dark osprey
#

depends on ur roster. can check the pins for the ones that mention not to be done for a specific round

#

like not doing glacia on the special attacks powered up round

keen silo
#

For me drake~>phoebe~>glacia~>sidney

vague furnace
#

Can I get some advice for r3 glacia?

#

Rn I was trying ss Branden with zinnia and a weather setter

mellow linden
#

Just SS Steven nuke her

#

Oh, wait, no Bianca

#

Hmm

vague furnace
#

I have bianca

mellow linden
#

Wait, she is there

#

I’m blind

#

So yeah, just SS Steven nuke

vague furnace
#

Ok

keen jasper
#

SS Hilbert for Metal Sound

vague furnace
#

Pre sync or post sync

keen jasper
mellow linden
vague furnace
#

Ok

mellow linden
#

You should be able to nuke with your 1st Sync

keen jasper
#

Just put it no strength parameters

#

SS Hilbert will weaken Glacia

boreal rose
#

I wanna do Glacia before Sidney cuz of the rounds

#

R4 boosts Special moves if im correct

zealous karma
boreal rose
#

Oh

#

But even November said to be careful abt Glacia on r4

#

Still hits 3k

subtle forge
#

Yeah cause all of her and the side’s attacks are special

boreal rose
#

Gloria i mean

#

Physical moves but special sync?

zealous karma
#

Raihan is our only other special steel

boreal rose
#

Ngl. Im kinda sad

zealous karma
# boreal rose

This stage is annoying jusy off type with your best special unit or keep trying with this team as you were shockingly close use a better support tho

boreal rose
#

There is also Coleres but i also dont hsve him

zealous karma
#

Mirror shot DPS is so pepega thay Lussa does it better in aoe

boreal rose
#

Ngl i cant wait until Alola VA (i hope that then will be LuSSamineGun rerun)

zealous karma
#

(The point is mirror shot DPS is not good lel)

boreal rose
#

Oh

#

I still want Lussa

#

So yeah SidneyYippee

#

Well i cant beat this weeks CS

#

Like. Literally

zealous karma
#

If you don’t want to off type probably

#

If you’re not familiar with hoenns gimmicks it’s extremely difficult I won’t lie to you there lel

boreal rose
#

I want to use my newly EX'd Gloria HildaCry

#

And/or HRosa

zealous karma
#

HRosa you can use against Steven to set weather

boreal rose
#

No?

#

She doesnt have weather

zealous karma
#

Doesn’t she set hail?

boreal rose
#

Nope

#

Also why hail? He is Water weak

boreal rose
zealous karma
#

Oh at 3/5

boreal rose
#

Mine is 2/5

zealous karma
boreal rose
#

Ik

#

Also im planning on using the ,,hoenn Goddess...es(?)" on it probably

#

Or Dojo Gloria

#

By the stuff in ,," i mean May, Winona, Roxxane cuz if i remember correctly they helped me beat Hoenn VA events

zealous karma
#

Well if you want a shot at Glacia with base Gloria and I’m assuming you don’t have PMarnie I recommend Glojo + Glacian

boreal rose
#

Glacian?

zealous karma
#

Gloria Zacian 🦑

boreal rose
#

Oh

#

With who?

lunar meadow
#

Just say Zacian...

boreal rose
#

Cuz HRosa doesnt do much

lunar meadow
#

There's only one

zealous karma
#

If you have 3/5 ex Hilbert or Sonia those work

boreal rose
#

1/5 Hilb, 2/5 Sonia

#

Sonia EX tho

zealous karma
#

Gloria kinda needs the crit Zacian

#

I’m assuming you don’t but do you have a 2/5 ex Aaron?

boreal rose
#

4/5

#

NonEX

#

My EX supports

zealous karma
#

Ssmorty def can work in this situation if you haven’t used him yet

boreal rose
#

I think i did

#

I used Sonia too

zealous karma
#

Oof

#

Calem might work here too because of the physical move up next

#

And Glojo hitting 3 times and stuffs

#

Actually you might want a spdef defensive buffing support I beat the stage with 3/5 EXSSMorty 1/5 Ex Gloria and 5/5 EX Jasmine

#

Post sync params

boreal rose
#

5/5 non ex Jasmine works?

zealous karma
#

I don’t think so

#

And the team does not work without SSMorty

#

I’m not really sure what you can do

#

I mean you did get close

#

But close isn’t good enough

mellow linden
#

Could finish on Hard Mode or a lower amount of points and reset so that different teams can be used (like saving Champ Serena for Glacia)

boreal rose
#

Why Seren

mellow linden
#

Should be super easy to off-type with her thanks to debuff spam

manic mica
#

holy shit hoenn e4 is so pain

faint haven
#

Quick question, is choosing all Max HP over Strength + a wise choice for next week's Wallace?
(was thinking about not choosing "no status condition" and "no stat reduction")

dark osprey
#

Maybe choosing all max HP will take it more than 99K HP

subtle forge
#

I guess if you wanna draw out the battle

faint haven
subtle forge
#

Is this like a stall team for smth?

#

Or are you actually trying to do damage?

dark osprey
#

Possibly a nuke stall team PrycePain ?

faint haven
#

mostly nuke

subtle forge
#

Ok well Wallace has wise entry x2 so SS Leaf will already struggle with the large Hp if you are doing max HP parameters

#

Since frenzy plant and her sync are special

#

If you are trying to damage through with that team, ditch the HP parameters

faint haven
#

Didn't even know he have Wise Entry PrycePain (Good to know)

dark osprey
#

Even SS Lyra has a special sync unfortunately

#

Do you have SS Erika?

faint haven
#

I have her (and used her before)

dark osprey
#

Then can go crazy with them

faint haven
#

Aight then

Am planning to use the double lyra with selene

#

hi, i wish to 10k CSMM, but

#

Ontype was really hard with almost all of them except for Steven, and a bit of Glacia.

steel kelp
#

Off type

undone ether
#

anything team build for my offtype? 😦

steel kelp
#

Whatever you have that hits hard

undone ether
#

i dunno who hits hard sadly

#

anything? 😦

#

i know i can punch Steven hard with Cerena, the rest no idea.

steel kelp
#

SS Steven , SST red, ash and SS red could do it off the top of my head

#

But you have others there that could do it but I don’t have them or know them

#

SS hilda and Cynthia could too

swift swan
#

zerena and lucas are literally there

#

and the pika duo

#

those two pairs can be two different offtype teams

ancient verge
#

sssteven there too

toxic cobalt
#

SS Lusamine EX

undone ether
#

Zerena for where though?

#

Something like this then?

swift swan
#

do you have bianca instead of ss morty there?

undone ether
#

bianca? yeah.

#

that's for drake i think

swift swan
#

I used zerena vs phoebe this week

swift swan
#

keep ss morty. switch out sabrina for bianca instead then

undone ether
#

E1 is Sidney, E2 is Phoebe, E3 Glacia and E4 is Drake

#

anything for E3 Glacia though?

swift swan
#

a very good sp defense buffer

#

ssa cynthia should work well there

#

I think the 3rd anni trio won't have problems with R3 Glacia

undone ether
#

Hum

#

i have SC Jasmine for SP Defense

old orchid
#

perfect

undone ether
#

honestly i wanted to use Serena (Champ) for Steven but he's really easy

#

CSerena seems better to debuff the shit out of Glacia

#

i'm not too sure about E2 Phoebe though

#

and also not too sure about SS Steven up against R1 SS Steven

trail smelt
#

Against who?

undone ether
#

@trail smelt Sidney

#

and champion arena is dead. again. ._.

#

guess i'll test this team

sand karma
#

Egad it's rock weak cs tomorrow?

#

Can you offtype that stage 2k with Cerena?

swift swan
#

in two resets

swift swan
sand karma
#

I don't even have Olivia so thank God for master fairs then

#

Who is the best special grass non limited pair?

#

U all r so pro

I can't even talk here

keen jasper

keen jasper
#

Oh special

#

Brendan and Silver

undone ether
#

Nope drake too hard lol

swift swan
#

yup, although Brendan has a physical sync so that's that

swift swan
undone ether
#

Ss morty, ss lusa and bianca

swift swan
#

quick reminder that drake sets up sandstorm on entry which makes it very hard to quadqueue

#

but ss lusa has sync move accel so it should still be manageable I think

#

hmmm ss morty is a really good tank. you changed the weather immediately right?

undone ether
#

They seem to have spdef bulk 😭

swift swan
#

...oh

#

right

#

drake has wise entry x2

#

we have three stages with entries this week

#

drake with wise entry x2 and phoebe and glacia with sentry entry x2

#

you'll need to offtype physically, OR just use Ghetsis. At least with him, he'll only be hitting offtype damage

sand karma
#

I'm kinda glad i haven't unlocked hoenn cs or else I'd have been in the gutters this week
The other 3 weeks are still decent

undone ether
#

Ss kris and ghetsis, still nothing

swift swan
#

I'm sure there are Drake clears utilizing Ghetsis. SS Kris should help tremendously with his DPS

#

so the third can be a defense buffer + potion unit

#

I usually just go with Skyla

undone ether
swift swan
#

Which round are you fighting drake? and is ssa cynthia still available? she's probably the best tank we have right now

undone ether
#

I could run ss kris + ghetsis + cerena 2/5

swift swan
#

if drake's hitting too hard, cynthia's your best shot

undone ether
#

I still have aura cynthia

#

And trying to beat drake first

swift swan
#

ah, round 1

#

yea it will definitely ruin your quadqueue

#

unless you have someone with Adrenaline or other ways of sync acceleration

keen jasper
undone ether
#

No he cant

keen jasper
undone ether
#

Pure atk...

keen jasper
#

I also have Pryce

#

To complement Ghetsis's sync multiplier

undone ether
#

Yeah but u have 3/5 morty

#

I dunt

keen jasper
#

Hmmm fair point, but you could try to turn denial the side by freezing them

undone ether
#

With ghetsis? Cold Snap would be nice

keen jasper
undone ether
#

Pryce dies before sync sadly ;-;

swift swan
#

Drake has low resistance to freeze. it might just work

swift swan
keen jasper
#

@undone ether Your SS Morty is EX-ed right?

keen jasper
# undone ether Yep

Then it's no different from my team then, just freeze the left side with Pryce when SS Morty syncs

boreal rose

Also, @undone ether

Lel. I just realized i used the 3 rare alt MC characters. Ash cuz he released some time ago (and may mot have an alt or rerun for ages), Rosa whose Alt before SC Rosa was in i think 2020. And Calem......i dont think i have to say anything

so impossible

10k seems low with prep

#

Even if she's only 3*

undone ether
#

she's actually 5star

undone ether
frosty axle
#

that isn't prep grid

undone ether
#

Follow Through gives Crit Next Move i think

frosty axle
#

same one I use

#

yes

#

so using hail before sync

undone ether
#

i did

main crow
#

But you don't have heavy hail active

#

Hail means nothing without it

frosty axle
#

Mine is slightly different for hasty hail

keen jasper
#

Mine doesn't have Super Preparation, but it's still enough to KO Drake

frosty axle
#

Ye but you have to give up guaranteed sync crit and hail mp refresh

keen jasper
#

Maybe it's because I have an EX supporter

frosty axle
#

prep grid is more useful if one has the permanent weather available

undone ether
#

o-o

#

have to EX Glacia and EX Candice too?

#

.-.

#

can't wait for next week 😄

frosty axle
#

Would say EX Glacia is more important as its defenses are bad

#

thankfully the new grid updates help

undone ether
#

if only her Selfdestruct hits 10k damage on each sync pair

#

tbh

#

i've used Glacia a lot

keen jasper
#

Glacia has FG9, which probably help Candice DPS a bit

undone ether
#

its just

keen jasper
#

It's just what?

undone ether

candice is using trainer moves so crit buff stays

undone ether

long thicket
#

Well, struggling with round 3 when I have Glacia or Drake.

#

Raihan appears to do decent damage to Glacia, but he never survived the sync so far.

long thicket
#

I'm honestly not sure what to boost with him.
I did try Hop as a support.

#

Also, maybe I shouldn't try to use an EX support in that case.

swift swan
#

Raihan is the recommended unit for Glacia, even. the only special steel

#

well, "only" is an exaggeration, but the only decent one

keen jasper
#

Unless you want to try Mirror Shot LuSSamine

swift swan
boreal rose
#

Who is stronger? Non EX Mewtwo Giovanni or EX 3/5 Bianca?

#

Cuz i wanna off type Sidney

formal vigil
#

You ideally run both together especially if off typing

boreal rose
keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Nevermind

#

I am an idiot

#

Psychic against dark isnt a good idea

keen jasper
formal vigil
#

Giovanni is weak to dark so you have to be careful

boreal rose
#

Darm wish. Isnt the same as terrain HildaCry

#

Im tunning out of ideas to off type

formal vigil
#

You could try using cyrus rain team

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Are those meant to be ≠

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Oh

keen jasper
#

IDK how to type not equal

boreal rose
#

On phone just hold =

#

Only zone i have is Posion

#

And Defog

keen jasper
boreal rose
#

Oh

#

No idea then

formal vigil
#

If you use darach for defog he also debuffs attack which is helpful

keen jasper
#

Can't wait to use SS Wally to just casually damage cap Sidney

#

Even with max HP, defense and strength parameters

long thicket
#

So, uh...
Raihan and any support with Special Defense+?

formal vigil
#

what move level is he?

keen jasper
#

Phoebe, well, if you lose using 2 of the most prominent trainers along with thunderous cheese-eaters

long thicket
#

1/5, no EX.

(Sorry if it's not me)

keen jasper
formal vigil
long thicket
#

I ended up hesitating in that seasonal select to get Marnie with zone.

#

It ended up being too late.

keen jasper
#

Do you have any Sp. Def. buffer that's EX-ed?

long thicket
#

Um...

formal vigil
#

do you have ss kris?

long thicket
#

I have a few Sp Def buffers with EX, but none are support.
And yes, I can use Kris, but maybe she'd be better to counter Drake's sandstorm?

keen jasper
formal vigil
#

you need physical attackers for drake

#

ss kris is special support

keen jasper
#

And yeah, Drake has Wise Entry x2

long thicket
#

So Raihan, Sygna Kris as first target?

keen jasper
long thicket
#

Saying this in case I'd need a second support.

#

I had to do this sometimes.

#

I have Alolan Grimsley for a Steel tech. I'm not a fan of the gimmick of his units, but he's there.

keen jasper
#

I still used SS Gio for Glacia

long thicket
#

Oh yeah, Steel max move.
Not sure, though.

keen jasper
#

But it's just obviously not strength and HP parameters

long thicket
#

What would these be, then?

keen jasper
long thicket
#

Mmm...

keen jasper
long thicket
#

Where would that be?

keen jasper

#

But name?

keen jasper

#

Found it, thanks.

#

Oh well I have Giovanni at 1/5, so not too sure about the grid, but I'll still try.

frosty axle
keen jasper
#

Or that too

long thicket
#

I did try this, I couldn't find a link. :x

#

Also...

frosty axle
#

I see it fine?

long thicket
#

Me when I find out you can zoom out of grids TODAY!

long thicket
#

I shouldn't switch Jasmine for a non EX support, right?

keen jasper
frosty axle
#

why not? if it helps more

long thicket
#

Oh okay, general profile, not just clicking on user.
I see my mistake, then.

#

I'll see the video before asking more questions.

frosty axle
#

Not sure which Jasmine but if steelix its not good on Glacia

The video shows Steelix, Starmie and Nidoking.

with Ingo, Cynthia 5/5/EX as well as Bertha

#

You can still win with sand up it isn't that bad

undone ether
#

Bertha can -ATK, Ingo just needs to survive ;x

#

no idea for parameters though

frosty axle
#

I think I used Glacia, Samurott and Crabominable on my one fight, syncing first with Glacia and saving Crabominable tm for his sync

#

I would go post sync if leaving Sandstorm up

#

so full strength

undone ether
#

there's a paid gacha just to get me a Crabomiable 😦

swift swan
#

Please do not

#

1/5 Crabominable is hard to use anyway. he's so freaking slow and his 4-gauge move debuffs speed. which yes, makes him hit harder, but good luck on gauges with that

#

at 3/5 he has a good nuke but you won't get that from paid selects

undone ether
#

I could use a omni candy on SS Morty

frosty axle
keen jasper
#

I mean, SS Morty is considered to be one of the best support units

swift swan
#

with SSN maybe sure

frosty axle
#

You just need speed from Samurott and hasty hail ice

#

I use him to support Abomasnow

swift swan
#

the thing is, his passive makes his regular moves hit harder when his speed is debuffed. so you miss out on multipliers

#

and tbh with that base speed, I just... don't trust him to dual strike at all even at +6 speed AcerolaPensive

frosty axle
#

true but it still works alright

undone ether
swift swan
#

ehhhh not very worth it unless you like her

undone ether
#

or just candice?

frosty axle
#

yes I like her ex

#

I did both

undone ether
#

Haaah

#

The last week will be another Sandstorm Drake

frosty axle
#

yep that and bug Sidney

#

hate that weakness

undone ether
#

wait

#

he's weak to Flying

frosty axle
#

Yes on 4th

swift swan
#

that's the third week right

undone ether
#

is my chances to killing that mustache man be better if i rolled HNessa or HLeon?

frosty axle
#

oh seems we don't get bug again its fairy

#

still not fun

keen jasper
#

Ok, lemme just get my SS Wally and just casually damage cap fairy-weak Sidney at max HP, strength and defense params

undone ether
#

for me Blue/Pidgeot i guess

frosty axle
#

I have Wally also for fairy lol

undone ether
#

Fighting is going to be very nice

frosty axle
#

Going to try Serena on flying weak

undone ether
#

Oh

#

i should be getting her soon then

frosty axle
#

cool she's awesome

undone ether
#

wow this is just painful

#

i've got uh

#

Aura Cynthia, and SC Diantha

#

not sure for the 3rd sync pair

frosty axle
#

not really crit works

#

so fighting will hit it hard

undone ether
#

hum

steel kelp
#

Use bea CynthiaSmug

undone ether
#

i actually do have Bea

#

we'll see

frosty axle
#

I usually go bea or diantha

dark osprey
#

Or go both. That murders

undone ether
#

mmhmm

frosty axle
#

True 👍

undone ether
#

next week is super easy

#

depends on base parameters

frosty axle
#

thankfully I need a rest F2P week

swift swan
#

but we don't recommend pulling just to clear a stage

undone ether
#

if he's going to be good for future Ice-weak stages

swift swan
#

HNessa and HLeon especially, their rates are horrid (for the unpaid rerun at least)

undone ether
#

i should 😦

frosty axle
#

I love HLeon on Ice even at 1/5

#

glad I was lucky

dark osprey
#

HLeon better than SSN in your opinion?

undone ether
#

yeah that

#

SSN is kinda... meh for me

#

4 bar move users are itchy.

swift swan
#

then you won't like Hala either

dark osprey
#

Yeah. But he does get the free move and 2 turn move thing

swift swan
#

at least with SSN he can juggle his 4-bar move with B Noble Roar and get free moves every time after that

dark osprey
#

Seems quite flexible

frosty axle
#

and se buff is nice on SSN

dark osprey
#

Yeah. Crazy. Just ohko centre

steel kelp
#

Guess you don’t like bea then

frosty axle
#

just not my playstyle

undone ether
#

HLeon is multihit right?

steel kelp
undone ether
#

he's fine at 1/5 yeah?

frosty axle
#

yep

#

you keep using Leon tm to boost glacial damage

dark osprey
#

That does seem like super fun

undone ether
#

so just buff him up

#

and then nuke after your Support EX Sync Move?

frosty axle
#

also hits hard now since I did EX

undone ether
#

oh you do sync move with him at 1/5?

frosty axle
#

yes support ex to buff Lance damage

#

then sync with him later

undone ether
#

oh support ex buff then

#

so he can get +6 Attack up basically?

frosty axle
#

think he has all buffs naturally thats needed

undone ether
#

wait this thing also works with his Lance?

#

that's actually... a step up to my Ice-types at all lmao

frosty axle
#

yes not sync

undone ether
#

okay

#

i'm gunning for him now, for meta :X

#

i hate it that Ghetsis got nothing for his sync grid.

frosty axle
#

normally you can stack that 6 times without mp refreshes

undone ether
#

that should be enough right?

#

it'd be like 5 to 10k damage on everything?

frosty axle
#

yes for me it is

undone ether
#

okay

frosty axle
#

think I did 17k on ice weak

undone ether
#

Very nice

#

and when you actually kill the sides

#

you also get buffed?

frosty axle
#

yes

undone ether
#

haah too sad that i wont get Jasmine

frosty axle
#

and freeze is helpful

undone ether
#

very

frosty axle
#

unfortunately can't record on the account I have him on

long thicket
#

This early sync rule is tearing me apart.

frosty axle
#

I found the best for me was to use that on Phoebe

long thicket
#

I hate that I had to do this, but I cheesed Glacia with more random 2k parameters and the chus.

#

I couldn't handle the sync countdown otherwise, I think.

#

I still have Drake, and I feel like all my Ice-type syncers are underwhelming aside from Hail Candice.

keen jasper
long thicket
#

I need a great speed booster, then.

keen jasper
long thicket
#

I don't have him.

keen jasper
#

Hmmmmm, I thought I swear you had him or was it a different person.... Oh well

#

Drake is all physical, so bring a defense buffer

steel kelp
#

Doesn’t he have wise entry

long thicket
#

I think the rest of the Johto arc had priority, it might've been too much to go for him too.

keen jasper
#

Just need Pryce to lower speed to activate his sync multiplier

long thicket
#

Lower speed, how?

#

And yeah, when I'm done with song unlocks (at least those I can get), it might be wise to EX Price or Hala because my Ice offense isn't the best.

keen jasper
long thicket
#

Not used to how he works.

keen jasper
#

I practically team up Ghetsis and Pryce together

#

Though it also involves SS Morty too

long thicket
#

Seems good because Hala and Ghetsis don't go together.

keen jasper
#

Pryce not only gives sync multiplier for Ghetsis, but also theme skill stat buff

swift swan
#

Hala can hardly go together with anyone. Except maybe SSN

keen jasper
#

+42 Sp. Atk. for both of them

swift swan
#

If you do have Hala, he's worth the try at 3/5

long thicket
#

I have him 5/5, and 1/5 EX Sygna N

swift swan
#

Hmmm can probably try running both together, but SSN needs to cycle his Freeze Shock with B Noble Roar to constantly get free moves next

long thicket
#

I haven't use him much yet.

keen jasper
#

I think it goes like this:
T1: TM
T2: Ice Beam
T3: Freeze Shock (Charge)
T4: Freeze Shock (Attack)
T5: B Noble Roar
T6: Sync

#

Or it can be like this assuming you use an external buffer:
3n + 1 Turns: Freeze Shock (Charge)
3n + 2 Turns: Freeze Shock (Attack)
3n: B Noble Roar

mellow linden
#

Not much of a point to getting that win-button combo if you’re not gonna use it

manic mica
#

Guys invest in striker eggmon magneton with the intention to counter glacia steel weak content if you don't have anything else

#

Just slap a support ex buffer and another steel nuker/steel zone and you can potentially clear

mellow linden
#

Or, y’know, just off-type or Poison stall

manic mica
#

Oh yeah

#

Poison stall shaves years off my lifespan though

#

But yeah off type if you can too

#

If you haven't used it on bug weak Sidney already HAH

mellow linden
#

Like, if Magneton’s a favorite then go for the eggmon, but at that point off-type or Poison stall is probably just as viable

manic mica
#

Yeah that is true

keen jasper
#

The only time I've ever poison stalled was against Cynthia

long thicket
#

Okay, that was almost it.

#

I just wasn't smart enough in how to handle the sides.

#

Not sure why, but Hala's sync did more this time.

mellow linden
#

Could’ve crit this time and not last time

#

Or just standard damage roll deviation

long thicket
#

I think it one-shotted one of the Garchomps.

#

I understand the annoyance of charge, but I don't think Sygna N was badly designed.

#

I've seen that opinion around.

#

At least he's not fully a freebie for damage.

dark osprey
#

SS N does really well for ice weak. Can use many budget teams around him to get a nice clear

#

He can one shot the centre flygon as well

long thicket
idle swift
#

i.e. how well can the pair function and contribute with outright obliterating the center before a sync can go off

#

SSN is niche but he's a fun pair in regards to pairing him with another 4 bar like Ghetsis and neither starve one another for resources

dark osprey
#

Just better not to sync with him

#

Kills on type

#

There was a lot of confusion on the sequence of moves while using him I guess

keen jasper
#

I wonder if this rotation is correct for him
#1009554906568462476 message

dark osprey
#

Seems nice. I think it's better not to sync with him even on the second sync unless 3/5 and an attack debuffer or something

#

Can keep a FS charge and hit after the second sync. This would be for on type mainly

keen jasper
#

My teams for this next Monday

dark osprey
#

Seem crazy good. Any gimmicks next week? Wallace wise entry is all I heard of

#

Phoebe also wise entry right?

subtle forge
#

I think so

dark osprey
#

No one cares of electric weak stages anymore

long thicket
#

Is Barry good against Steven?
His EX sync does decent against the sides.

zealous karma
#

I’d say so 🦑

long thicket
#

Trying with May for rain, not sure for the support.

#

Hilbert seems decent, but I have defense issues.

frosty axle
#

Am I forgetting something 3 sync buffs at lvl 140 and only 12k in rain? on my main account second sync killed, the usual post sync parameters

long thicket
#

Okay, this is insanely weird, but...

#

I won with Sygna Blue, Barry and Archie.

mellow linden
#

Not that weird

long thicket
#

I don't know how two strikers, let alone one so gauge heavy, went that well together.

mellow linden
#

Barry’s gauge cost is pretty low, iirc

#

The main issue I’d personally have with that comp is lack of Rain refreshing

long thicket
#

There was the option while facing Steven.

#

But I didn't go there.

zealous karma
#

Oh 320 with +6 is 832

zealous karma
long thicket
#

I'm free til Monday.

#

If Classic Blue, Ingo and Emmet do fine with Rock, I don't think I should have issues next week.

zealous karma
#

J got 10k

#

Without maxed inertia woops

#

Wow never realized that Lyra Vaporeom is a good support for Barry Spd and SpDef debuffs and Spd buffs

frosty axle
zealous karma
#

Water + passionate spirit theme skills?

frosty axle
zealous karma
#

Iirc it’s like a +48 stat boost with water theme skill

frosty axle
#

only other thing I noticed is that my Abomasnow does a lot less with Zamazenta, Swanna and Abomasnow compared to Zamazenta, Kyurem and Abomasnow

zealous karma
#

Ice theme skils

frosty axle
#

like 10k less with same parameters

zealous karma
#

Oh that could be se up next

frosty axle
#

nope same grids

#

so without it

#

I did the same order left > right > middle, main account one hits and reroll doesn't at same levels

zealous karma
#

If you have footage of both that would make it easier to assess

frosty axle
#

I just changed swanna to Kyurem now suddenly doing the right damage, find it surprising just ice theme can add 10k damage

#

so must be some multipliers which adds up

zealous karma
#

I only got a 3K damage difference and even then I could’ve gotten a low damage roll

zealous karma
frosty axle
#

seems quite a lot more than my second

void wyvern
#

Ex maybe?

zealous karma
#

Theirs is EX lel

frosty axle
#

mine is EX

zealous karma
#

I watch their content a lot lel

void wyvern
#

I just subscribed to them, unironically

#

Do you both have the same grid?

frosty axle
zealous karma
frosty axle
#

left side

zealous karma
#

I did center min first woops lel

frosty axle
#

seems on second try on right I hit 24k seems sync damage has a big range

#

if you hit minimum 17k

zealous karma
#

Ye

zealous karma
frosty axle
#

Ye I seem to average about 15k on first and around 23k on second and 30k on third

#

so I guess my swanna team was just low rolls

zealous karma
#

I like Candice and Ghetsus more than just sole candice lel especially now that Ghetsus has MGR 9

frosty axle
#

yea the team combo is quite good especially with freeze and attack drops

#

so seems first sync can go from 10k to like 16k from my attempts

zealous karma
#

Wow

frosty axle
#

so that explains why I see 25k to 35k on third one

#

I didn't think the range would be so huge

#

least I finally finished even though I didn't get hail mp refresh as cold snap worked a lot lol

2022/12/12 - 2022/12/19
Fairy-weak Sidney: Mid is mostly physical, right is mostly special, left is mixed. Very bulky HP (almost 29k). Low resistance to special attack debuffs (Lessen 3). Low resistance to paralysis and confusion (Lessen 5). Has AOE Thunder Wave right before sync. Mid has Furious Brain which raises the power of moves the more special attack is raised.
Tip: You can flinch/sleep the Thunder Wave. Sidney won't try again.

Electric-weak Phoebe: Mid is mostly special. Sides are fully special. Very bulky HP (almost 29k). Low resistance to paralysis (Lessen 5). All 3 have Healthy Advantage 4 which reduces damage taken when not affected by status condition.
Tip: Piercing Blows and other moves with a similar effect can ignore this.

Fire-weak Glacia: Fully special stage. Bulky HP (25k). High attack and special attack stats. Has slightly lower resistance to burn (Lessen 7). Sets Hail on entry and right before sync. Has a lot of Hail-related passives so changing the weather is recommended. Left has Ice Face.
Tip: You can flinch/sleep the Hail right before sync. Glacia won't try again.

Rock-weak Drake: Mid and right are fully physical, left is mixed. Low attack and special attack stats. Has low resistance to defense debuffs (Lessen 3). Mid has Tough Cookie which increases the power of moves the more defense is raised. Mid lowers your AOE speed a lot.

Grass-weak Wallace: Fully special stage. Bulky HP (21k). Low attack and special attack stats. Sets rain on entry and after sync and extends the duration of rain. Has a lot of Rain-related passives so changing the weather is recommended. All 3 have Wise Entry x2 which doubles the base special defense stat (Piercing Blows and other moves with a similar effect do not ignore this). Physical moves is recommended.

please be a little more patient November, you're going to get a reply as soon as it's possible. The posting coincides with sleep time / waking hours for the majority of the team (plus being the weekend). Allow it time to be discussed, plus seeing the previous week is still up (raises hand of going to do MMCS later today), most likely it's better to pin the new summary / unpin the previous one tomorrow at reset

swift swan

sidney sets dark zone right before sync so if you do sidney R3, you can anticipate the zone to come faster. meanwhile drake sets sandstorm right after. I think both can give you an edge, but it all comes down on your team and which one you're more confident with

keen jasper
#

And you need physical attackers for Drake

Since this is round 3, probably get a physical defensive support that gives gauge.

This should work unless quad queue issues with quick tempo. Can use any other decent support if that's bothering you

outer kestrel
#

Does toxic stalling just not work anymore?

mellow linden
#

It still works, though some stages aren’t as well suited to it

#

I’d definitely recommend off-type over Poison stall against Bug weak Sidney, for example

outer kestrel
#

I beat Sidney

#

I’m trying to stall glacia

#

(And potentially Drake, idk I haven’t gotten to him yet but I don’t have amazing ice types)

#

But by the time I die, glalie is still at essentially 100% HP

#

So it seems like it just doesn’t work

#

For 2k points

frosty axle
#

I don't see Glacia stall being easy

outer kestrel
#

What’s the strat for her

#

SS giovanni is my only relevant steel

frosty axle
#

flinch or use something special

outer kestrel
#

He’s good but can’t solo it

frosty axle
#

Cause of sentry entry you want a special striker

outer kestrel
#

I don’t have a special steel striker unfortunately

frosty axle
#

then offtype it

outer kestrel
#

My steel strikers are like Steven and Gloria lol

#

I guess I can try SS Steven

frosty axle
#

He could if he doesn't get hit by blizzards

#

I personally used Serena and Zygarde and also Empoleon

outer kestrel
#

Isn’t Zerena even more weak to blizzards?

#

Considering she’s weak to ice

#

Anyways will give this a shot

She worked for me as I had Dialga dragon wish
