Clair time against Drake

keen jasper
#

All 3 of the 2nd anni units have those moves

mellow linden
#

SS Serena backup plan

frail grove
#

What team do u plan to run with fantina ex grid buff?

keen jasper
keen jasper
#

These will be my teams next week

frosty axle
keen jasper
frosty axle
#

Drakes team with steelix is odd 😳

keen jasper
frosty axle
#

hope your ghost team does enough damage as you probably want to debuff attack for Phoebe Haymaker

keen jasper
#

Fantina will finish her off before she can syns

#

I just wish I have Renegade Cynthia

frosty axle
#

she has high health/defense

dark osprey
#

I too. Hope to pull her on return

frosty axle
#

thankfully Lucario is tanky

dark osprey
#

I guess double striker should do it

#

And Fantina grid seems nice

frosty axle
#

Would be great if we get field effects next week

dark osprey
#

Ah. That seems to be more common with the Hoenns at least

#

It's fun

#

That big nuke by Fantina will be good

sand karma
#

Oookay i tried Bea, Hilbert, Cheryl
Beas sync does less damage than her normal move
And she immediately one shot dies to sync

#

What say?

mellow linden
#

Why Cheryl?

sand karma
#

The 2 more speed to keep up for bar hungry bea

#

And potions

#

Since i have to save skyla

mellow linden
#

At that point it’s probably better to grid Hilbert for X Speed All MP Refresh and try BP Morty as the 2nd Support

#

1st Sync was with Hilbert, right?

sand karma
#

Yep

#

Had to use his waterfall twice to quad queue in between tms

mellow linden
#

Oh, y’know what, Bea might’ve not crit her Sync

#

That would explain the damage difference

sand karma
#

Blizzard takes out like 75 percent of her health

mellow linden
#

That’s what BP Morty would be for, Sp. Def. buffs

sand karma
#

Flinch is my lifehacket

sand karma
mellow linden
#

If you don’t see yourself needing BP Surge’s grid any time soon then yeah, BP Morty is a good choice

sand karma
#

God i hate bp surge squishiest support I've ever met. Gave me hell in gauntlet

#

Shall i grid Morty also for aggravation?

keen jasper
#

Definitely

mellow linden
#

More flinch is always nice

sand karma
#

Oh my he has all good bonuses in all 4 directions

astral crane
#

I feel like Hoenn is definitely harder than Sinnoh. I actually have to think when crafting teams now

sand karma
#

This should do?

#

Don't think i can get tm refresh

keen jasper
#

I'd grid his TM MP refresh instead of First Aid since has flinch anyways

sand karma
#

I'll have to lose healthy healing for that

keen jasper
#

Same reason still

sand karma
#

Which is fine i guess?

#

Okay

keen jasper
#

Flinch will make him not need the healing nodes

sand karma
#

Good god her sync just did 1214 damage

#

Should I cry

keen jasper
sand karma
#

I don't think so

keen jasper
mellow linden
#

Can try Falkner + BP Morty for teammates if you wanna go back to Solgaleo

sand karma
#

Bruh whys her sync so bad

#

She did 1188 now

#

Like her first move does 2036

mellow linden
#

That just sounds like getting unlucky on crit

keen jasper
sand karma
#

ExHilbert, BPMorty

#

She's 1/5

#

Max attack

#

Only 2 crit from her entry

keen jasper
#

Solgaleo will probably be the better option

mellow linden
#

Wait, your Hilbert isn’t gridded for Critical Squad?

keen jasper
mellow linden
#

Yes, but they said she only has the +2 crit

sand karma
#

It's impossible to get aggravation, speed mp refresh and crit squad at once

keen jasper
#

Ah

#

I don't think X Speed All MP refresh is even necessary

sand karma
#

She needs 4 bars Hilbert needs 2 bars where to get

sand karma
#

Whaaaat

#

Lmao

mellow linden
#

Would need to give up Vigilance from grid, is all

sand karma
#

Ah

#

He has defense crush now

mellow linden
#

If you're running him and BP Morty it might be worth swapping him to a Vigilance grid, but you could also see how Falkner/BP Morty/Solgaleo works if you want

sand karma
#

I'll try this

#

I thought of keeping Falkner for sidney

mellow linden
#

Your Support's type doesn't matter, so unless you need Falkner's specific kit for someone there's no reason to restrict him to Sidney

#

Could just use Sabrina instead of Falkner if you're already running Aaron on the team

sand karma
#

I'm not very confident blue can even do that stage
Might have to try Darach also

#

Or Kahili

#

But Aaron can max atk

mellow linden
#

Crit and defensive buffs is what Aaron's main purpose would be, Sabrina handles Blue's Sp. Atk. buffs via Trainer Move

#

Also gives some accuracy buffs too

sand karma
#

Which one?

#

She has only dire hit no?

mellow linden
#

Sixth Sense

#

Her Trainer Move

#

It's more than a heal and to only see it as such is doing the move a disservice

sand karma
#

I hate it for what it is

#

Why aren't those 2 things separate 😠

mellow linden
#

She gets MP Refresh, it's not that big of a deal

sand karma
#

Rng my nemesis

mellow linden
#

Since Aaron also has Heal Order and defensive buffs you should be alright

sand karma
#

Okay she is doing damage after changing Hilberts grid

#

But dying to side blizzards again WhitneySad

#

Why does she start from left after sync

keen jasper
sand karma
#

I got blizzarded twice

#

Should I try this pre sync?

frosty axle
#

are the blizzards before middle dies?

sand karma
#

No

#

I reset if they come on first tuen

#

Flinch if later

frosty axle
#

then you need to kill sides if you can before they do something

onyx ice
#

I always play with -2, but didn't tried Candice Nuke

#

I think Candice should one shot with se up sync

verbal karma
#

...err...I have beaten CS today...

onyx ice
#

At least with only strength 3 as bulk

hidden ore
#

Any tips for r1 Drake?
What should I replace Glacia for?

frosty axle
onyx ice
#

Sync + ice hammer is one shot with -3 sync

sand karma
#

Oh my God
I did it
Didn't use her tm at all
Got lucky with the flinches and missed a blizzard once in the end and nuked it without even letting Glacia sync
Thanks so much guys
This was so fun

mellow linden
#

Congrats!

sand karma
#

There's still 4 more to go in this cursed week

#

Anyway I'll be harassing y'all for some more time

#

Can non upgraded Giovanni really do Wallace?

mellow linden
#

Should be able to so long as you have a Psychic Terrain setter

#

Without one you might have issues

sand karma
#

Okay nvm

sand karma
frosty axle
#

One should have Bianca at least

sand karma
#

My bad luck is such that all prayers went unanswered through the unova va

mellow linden
#

Can just off-type with Ash + Volkner + a tank then

#

No big deal

sand karma
#

Yep I'm saving him for that

#

I'm worried about sidney tho

#

If Phoebe didn't have sentry entry i wouldve offtyped him with Cerena

#

Is it better to do dark physical on Phoebe or water offtype with the greninjas?

mellow linden
#

Karen not 3/5?

sand karma
#

Im having shite luck in Johto va too oof she's still 1/5

mellow linden
#

Unfortunate. I guess you can try Sidney Round 2 and evaluate what to do from there

sand karma
#

Won't sidney be easier round 3 if i can flinch him easier?

hidden ore
#

Used today for Candice EX

mellow linden
#

Forgot you hadn’t switched to Falkner/BP Morty/Solgaleo, so I was thinking under the assumption you didn’t have much in the way of flinches. But since you have Falkner available you’re in a much better spot regarding those

sand karma
#

do i go dark or water on Phoebe?

mellow linden
#

You can try both and see what works

#

Since you only need to replace 1 team member

keen jasper
#

Even using her dark sync

sand karma
#

Yeah i did it dark with MR

#

Thank you

#

Is accuracy max 3 or 6?

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Oof

#

His dark pulse hits too hard

#

And they spam so many tms

onyx ice
onyx ice
#

(palkia)

#

I would have used Darkrai (if i had him)

full mesa
#

I used SCLillie/Sidney/Cerena. -2 dark rebuff and Sidney nuke. After that spam brutal swing and hope for flinch on both sides.

spring fable
#

I used Karen, Lucian and Calem

#

But it’s 1.5k

mellow linden
#

Karen + Lucian + NY Sabrina (can substitute a different Sp. Atk. and/or crit Support) was what I used for 2k, though Karen and NY Sabrina were EX

spring fable
#

None of mine were ex HildaCry I would like to believe that’s why it was so hard

north crown
#

Anyone want team recommendations? Bored after LG ended so here I am.

late halo
#

Sydney 2v3 with Lodge Serena. How to make work

north crown
#

...why?

#

also don't know if her nuke can presync, so you might be stuck with post

late halo
#

It can’t, I tried earlier today for fun

#

Took maybe half of the mid’s health?

So, any guesses what might the next CS will be? We had the 2 most recent CS back-to-back and wondering if we're gonna get a new one this January

dark osprey
#

Galar Hopium

keen jasper
old orchid
#

They could make rotation between GLs and rivals like Champion Cup, or just people you encounter in the league

dark osprey
keen jasper
#

And I hope we get Drasna and Malva as spotlights

dark osprey
#

Oh yeah nice. Sure will

keen jasper
#

Also, when are we getting the other gym leaders?

main crow
#

Kalos CS Hopium

#

DeNA screwing over CS beginners for 3 months straight would be funny

silver sonnet
#

Hi guyss, im trying to finish champion wallace, can anyone help me teambuild 😦

silver sonnet
#

Ive used up team 1-4

old orchid
#

Can you post your support roster too?

silver sonnet
keen jasper
#

@silver sonnet Oh I'm blind, you don't have her

silver sonnet
#

šŸ‘‰šŸ»šŸ‘ˆšŸ»

keen jasper
#

But SS Steven should be more than sufficient enough to take on Wallace

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

I used him up on another round 😦

#

Hard mode 😦

#

Ive never cleared cs

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

Its bad im sorry 😦

#

Is it possible with the units i have left?

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

Giovanni&Mewtwo leveled up to 125

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

So a unit that has special attack up?

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

Rosa (?)

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

Notyett

#

So Rosa, Giovanny , Sycamore

#

?

main crow
#

If you haven't used Hop you can always slot him in

keen jasper
main crow
#

Instead of bringing rosa

silver sonnet
#

Havent used Hop yet too

keen jasper
#

Sycamore/Hop/Giovanni it is then

main crow
#

Since Rosa buffs overlaps with Syca's

keen jasper
#

Sycamore can also be an immortal tank because of Horn Leech crit

main crow
#

You could never go wrong with Hop+Sycamore combo

long thicket
#

Alright, gonna have to be asking here specifically for Glacia and Drake.
I have good options for damage dealers, it's how to use them.

silver sonnet
#

Whats the strategy in this team? What do i open with?

keen jasper
#

Sycamore sync first for the special attack, special defense and speed buff, also he can cure poison. Giovanni will be your damage dealer. Hop can use Potion, buff defense and crit

silver sonnet
#

Imma try out

#

Wish me luck guys

main crow
#

Also don't forget to change up the hit order

silver sonnet
#

Thanks for the helpp

keen jasper
#

@silver sonnet

main crow
#

Set Sycamore as first, Hop then Giovanni

keen jasper
#

Wait first

silver sonnet
keen jasper
#

Let me see the grid of that team

silver sonnet
#

Havent built theyre grid 😦

#

I dont think i have sync orbs too

#

Save for sync orbs?

keen jasper
#

Hmmmm, try to grid one of them first, probably Sycamore first

silver sonnet
#

What to go for?

main crow
#

Master healer horn leech build

#

That's the most important part of making him immortal

silver sonnet
#

So save up enough orbs to hit them (?)

keen jasper
#

Horn Leech Master Healer and Adrenaline because of his Team Shout ability

silver sonnet
#

Lol owkay almost beat it with this team

#

Thats awesome i didnt know about this combo

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

Yess

#

How do i cure the poison on sycamore?

keen jasper
#

Or should say use his trainer move "This World is Vast"

silver sonnet
#

Owkay i think i just need to finish up his grid to complete this

#

Omg thank you guys

keen jasper
silver sonnet
#

I just need theyre grids up

#

Constantly ko-ing wallace, and the one on the right

#

Then the left one uses earthquake and oneshots mewtwo

spring fable
#

Did you sync with sycamore first?

silver sonnet
#

Yesss

#

Giovanny uses his nowhere to hide
Hop uses hop to it
And sycamore goes horn leech

#

Do that until sycamore does a sync move

#

Than start going with confusion (?)

#

Use the world is vast when sycamore gets poisoned (?)

keen jasper
spring fable
#

Personally I start my queues with sycamore first

#

Idk if it makes a diff

keen jasper
#

It wouldn't be possible to quad queue if Sycamore does Team Shout

spring fable
#

Can try denying a side while you slap mid?

keen jasper
#

Probably with the same strat they did too

#

It's just the lack of gridding that makes the difference

spring fable
#

Alrighty

keen jasper
#

I would probably say replace Hop for Elio

spring fable
#

Does he debuff at 1/5?

keen jasper
spring fable
#

Ah

silver sonnet
#

Id just build up the grid guys

#

Thank you so muchh

keen jasper

First time i beat the champion

keen jasper

#

I hope so

#

Imma try to build a unit to fill in those blanks

spring fable
#

do we know what region is after hoenn?

formal vigil
#

not yet

spring fable
#

oh

#

next week only phoebe has both entry

#

the rest dont have defenseive entries

keen jasper
spring fable
#

there's a x2?

keen jasper
#

No

spring fable
#

i thought only wise and sentry?

formal vigil
#

yeah she does have i though since it isn't x2 its simply just a stat buff that can be ignored by crits

spring fable
#

i'll be honest idk what x2 you guys are talking about...

old orchid
#

Wise Entry 2: buffs 2 spdef stages when enters the battle
Wise Entry x2: double the base spdef stat

spring fable
#

damn i nvr noticed the difference

long thicket
#

So what's a good team for Bea against Glacia?
I've heard the combo Hilbert and Skyla as supports, but I've already used Skyla.

#

She's also not EX when I have EX Wally.

mellow linden
#

Can just replace Skyla with BP Morty or another defensive Support

long thicket
#

Alright, I'll try that.

#

Oh wow, that went so well...

#

Now there's Drake.
I have EX Sygna N, and Candice for countering sandstorm, plus her very good sync under hail. (I'll probably EX her as priority when I'm done with songs)

sand karma
#

Here I am, once again...

#

Sync first with Aaron ex or Blue Pidgeot?

formal vigil
#

blue pidegot so you can get hurricane

sand karma
#

Okay

#

Oh wow blue is dying to first sync today

#

Sidney doesn't seem to follow the crclc order at all

#

I'm having trouble timing the flinches

#

I wish one of them had speed buffs
So i could spam flinches with Aaron also

swift swan
#

Who are you flinching with?

swift swan
full mesa
#

Aaron is an expensive flincher.

sand karma
#

The most frustrating part is his random move order

spring fable
#

Hi I’m racking my brains for next week and this is what I came up with

#

Honestly theorybuilding this im quite worried for next week

#

I’m just hoping ash and cerena will carry me if I struggle

keen jasper
ancient lava
#

What's a good f2p team for sydney? 😦

#

Just need to beat him to get to wallace

keen jasper
ancient lava
#

Pretty sad selection ngl

spring fable
spring fable
#

Think I’ll replace hop with skyla since she’s EX

#

Levels > move levels?

keen jasper
keen jasper
spring fable
#

Hmm

#

I’ll give it a try next week and see what happens

#

Will aim for the 1.5k still

ancient lava
#

That sounds about right, I'm saving my non ex mewtwo with xerneas and maybe another healing support for Wallace

keen jasper
ancient lava
#

Kahili looks like something... weird ngl

#

Is Leaf/Eevee a viable heal support?

keen jasper
ancient lava
#

Ooh might use her

#

I have her at 5/5

#

for some reason lmao

keen jasper
#

You'll get a lot of copies of her when you summon

sand karma
keen jasper
#

I'm blind sometimes SophoKEK

ancient lava
#

5/5 eevee but not even 3/5 darach SophoKEK

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Darach is worse

#

He just died by himself even with standfast

#

I'm going back to blue ig

formal vigil
#

recoil do be like that

sand karma
#

Praying to Arceus i get the flinches right this time

prime warren
#

Does next week sidney have wise entry or sentry entry? I don't remember absol gimmick

old orchid
#

No

#

Its gimmicks are spatk buff and thunder wave

trail smelt
#

You can check in the Pokemas tools website

prime warren
#

Oh thx

#

I can bruteforce ontype then

ancient lava
#

Ah first time to finish CS

#

:feelsgoodman:

spring fable

sand karma
#

I hate Sidney

#

If i fail to flinch one of his moves poof half health

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Aaron, Falkner, Blue

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Aaron

#

Oof did it. Falkners flinch failed and then got flinched before he could fly and died
Arceus saved me with sceptiles earthquakes failing to the confusion

keen jasper
#

Well, now it's time for the easy part

sand karma
#

There's still drake

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Hoping Skyla, Ghetsis, Candice works

dusty crater
#

Whatxs candice there for?

keen jasper
dusty crater
#

Ghetsis doesn't benefit from hail tho

keen jasper
#

Because Drake sets up sandstorm

dusty crater
#

Oh tru

sand karma
#

Doesn't drake also have sentry entry?

keen jasper
#

And also Drake has Wise Entry x2

sand karma
#

So she has to sync

keen jasper
#

You can dual DPS with Hala and Candice

sand karma
#

Ah yes mb the sp def

keen jasper
#

Drake is all physical

sand karma
#

Oh right

#

But i gotta grid him

#

I'll see

#

I'll try this

#

If it doesn't work I'll go Hala

#

What's the best grid for Candice?

keen jasper
keen jasper
sand karma
#

No i do refer them

#

But i saw some discussion above with some tweaking

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Yes

#

Which build for Ghetsis?

#

Freeze or double drop

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Candice died after one sync and one earthquake even after 1 potion

#

Here we go again

sand karma
#

Skyla Ghetsis

#

Goodamn

#

Hoenn is definitely worse than Sinnoh

#

I miss Bertha now

keen jasper
sand karma
#

3

keen jasper
#

Ah good

#

You can dual damage dealer with Candice and Hala

SurvivabilityWhitneySad

cinder coyote
#

Bro I can’t do anything šŸ’€

#

Like I’ve tried all 4 of them and I’m stuck šŸ’€

mellow linden
#

Hard Mode or Master Mode, and what parameters if Master Mode?

cinder coyote
#

Master mode, And I’m doing the 2,000 Post Sync

#

(With slight adjustments depending on units)

mellow linden
#

What teams have you been using for each one?

cinder coyote
#

For Sidney

#

EX Lysandre, Skyla and Sabrina

#

For Drake, EX Ghetsis, Protag with 4-Star Tech Lapras (for hail) and Jasmine/Steelix or Dawn/Torterra

#

The other 2 I’ve just been using like super effective strike and other units I can’t remember

mellow linden
#

Run Candice instead of eggmon, Drake wants physical damage and Candice's nuke is great. Depending on what Supports you have there may be a better option in that regard as well

cinder coyote
#

I see

#

I will try that

mellow linden
#

If you could screenshot your roster (ideally from the move level menu) it would let us give the best possible advice

cinder coyote
#

Ok ok one sec

mellow linden
#

What move level is Hilbert? His move level is cut off by the UI

cinder coyote
#

Oh Woops

#

He’s move level 4

mellow linden
#

Alright

#

So, some immediate things I see are your Ash and SS Hilda. If need be you can off-type with them

cinder coyote
#

Also another thing is I’ve been using EX Masked Royal and EX SS Cyrus for phoebe, I wanna use Lysandre with Cyrus but I wanna save him for Sidney

#

Because Lysandre is (probably) my strongest flying striker

mellow linden
#

For Phoebe, you can either try you hand at the age-old Hop + Masked Royal + Nessa comp or run a Karen comp since Phoebe has Sentry Entry x2

Glacia is an easy Bea + Hilbert + defensive Support (BP Morty is a good one)

formal vigil
#

ss cyrus is special

cinder coyote
mellow linden
#

Oh, right, you have SS Cyrus. So Karen + SS Cyrus + a Sp. Atk. and/or crit Support would work

mellow linden
cinder coyote
#

Also should I turn off status condition block and have defense/spdef up 1

#

For Cyrus I mean

mellow linden
#

Did you get Zinnia's EX/Power Boost?

cinder coyote
#

Cuz he puts people to sleep

cinder coyote
mellow linden
#

Unfortunate

#

Not a huge deal though

cinder coyote
#

That comes around with the Hoenn Villain arc right?

formal vigil
#

yep

cinder coyote
#

I like took a break from the game and when I came back I had just missed it šŸ’€

keen jasper
#

You'll have to wait a few months for Zinnia's power ups to rerun

mellow linden
#

I'd honestly suggest off-typing Sidney with either SS Hilda + a tank + Blaine, or Ash + 2 Supports (since unless I'm absolutely blind you don't have Volkner) over 1/5 Lysandre, or you can try a Blue + Pidgeot team

keen jasper
#

Does the guy have Darach?

mellow linden
#

Drake could be done with Candice + Hala + someone with gauge accel, or Candice + Ghetsis + Kiawe or another Support who can help finish buffs

mellow linden
keen jasper
sand karma
keen jasper
sand karma
#

4

mellow linden
#

And lastly, Wallace should be an easy time with Anniversary May + Giovanni + a Support to tank and possibly finish some Sp. Atk. and/or crit buffs

sand karma
#

Candice does only like 1/4 bar on sync even after support sync and super preparation

mellow linden
#

You have Hail Follow-Through, right?

sand karma
mellow linden
#

Well there’s your problem

sand karma
#

She would've used hail 2 times before she can sync

keen jasper
# sand karma No

Remove the sync power up node from the top and put Follow-Through

mellow linden
#

Candice has no source of crit on that team, so Follow-Through is quite literally a must-have. You can wait to use Hail until later since Hala doesn’t get that much from it, iirc

#

So you can use Hail once to deal with Sandstorm and then wait to use it again until right before Candice Syncs

sand karma
#

Sandstorm boosted drake PrycePain

#

Round 4

mellow linden
#

Ah, Round 4

keen jasper
#

Then don't use Hail until Drake syncs

mellow linden
#

That does put a bit of a damper on things, doesn’t it

#

Yeah, might just have to deal with the boosted damage until after he Syncs, unfortunately

#

Either that or change the Support you use entirely

#

Because without a source of crit there is zero use to Candice’s Sync nuke

#

She needs either a crit Support or Follow-Through

sand karma
#

Okay

mellow linden
#

Hope for good move rng that makes him use only trainer moves before Sync, I suppose

keen jasper
#

Try to kill the sides as quickly as possible before you sync with Candice

sand karma
#

Oh my god

#

The difference is phenomenal

#

But she died do earthquakes right after

keen jasper
#

JK

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Yep immediately after

keen jasper
sand karma
#

I thought drake was weak without sandstorm but no

#

He be hitting like a truck

sand karma
keen jasper
sand karma
#

Mb i edited it to make sense

keen jasper
#

You can weaken Drake with Hala's Ice Hammer, but only once. After that, Hala should focus on killing the sides

#

@sand karma Can I see you Hala's grid?

sand karma
keen jasper
sand karma
#

I did realise that very late

#

But i didn't see any other multipliers so i left it at that

keen jasper
sand karma
#

This?

keen jasper
#

Well, I have my own DPS build for Hala, but that should be good enough

sand karma
#

Okay

keen jasper
#

My Hala has TM Super Preparation to significantly weaken Drake

#

After EX support buff OFC

sand karma
#

Instead of?

#

All the hail multipliers?

keen jasper
#

This is my own Ice Hammer build for Hala

#

Focused purely on damage

#

I forgot the other two 0 energy nodes

sand karma
#

Bruh

#

His earthquake takes out all her health wtf

keen jasper
sand karma
#

No the one after his sync

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Yeah

#

After a potion also

That should make a big difference, yeah

keen jasper
#

@sand karma Also, don't use Ice Punch because she loses her crit hit next and her SEUN status

#

Before she syncs that is

sand karma
#

I'm doing tm and hail immediately before syncs

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Wdym

keen jasper
#

It's how I meant it, Candice's TM costs gauges

sand karma
#

Does it affect the crit next and seun?

keen jasper
#

Like when Hala will use Ice Hammer

sand karma
#

I have no prob with that

mellow linden
sand karma
#

Ice hammer has a long wind up and animation it's actually fine

mellow linden
#

Or both uses consume 2 gauge

sand karma
#

I know but it's not affecting much so I'm not worried

keen jasper
#

Ok then

keen jasper
mellow linden
#

And Defense

keen jasper
#

And +80 HP

sand karma
#

It workedBarryPogChamp

keen jasper
sand karma
#

I changed halas grid to yours

keen jasper
#

Wow nice

sand karma
#

Candice didn't even have to sync again

#

Halas endurance came in clutch

#

And Candice survived 2 earthquakes with 2 potions

#

I love Hala

keen jasper
#

Now it's really time for the easy part

keen jasper
mellow linden
#

Wallace should be fairly easy overall, yeah

sand karma

Drake went out with his first ice hammer and her sync

Unless you mean he's not gridded

sand karma
#

I don't have Bianca also so

keen jasper
#

Then just put a Sp. Atk. buffer for Giovanni

sand karma
#

Best i can do

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Nope WhitneySad

#

Came around Ash release

keen jasper
#

Oh, I thought it was someone else

#

NVM then

sand karma
#

Wasn't wise enough to pull on ssa Cynthia or stt red

keen jasper
sand karma
keen jasper
#

Then I suppose there's no other choice but that team

sand karma
#

So i just thought of offtyping

keen jasper
#

Also, beware that Cheryl has horrendous defense stats and majority of Wallace's attacks are physical

sand karma
#

I know from first hand experience her kit is good but she could never be a tank

keen jasper
#

She's a good special tank that's for sure, but never a physical one

keen jasper
sand karma
#

Nope

#

Too little damage

#

Cheryl gets one shot with sync

#

Too many poisons

keen jasper
sand karma
#

There's elio

#

But no potions

keen jasper
sand karma
#

I just offtyped it

#

Have to sleep

#

Thank you very much Night CAster and Cobalt Steel
This was really fun

This good for next week?

I could also use diantha instead but iirc sidney uses status conditions

Not complete, obviously.

A truly dark team. XD

Why does Wallace deal so much damage hate it here

mellow linden
#

Eh, outside of Poison Jab it’s not that bad

tired sleet

He learned from tosakinto’s vids

#

any tips on beating drake for 1500 points?

zealous karma
#

Do you have candice hop and Ghetsus?

#

And can you grid them

gleaming smelt
#

yup all three, can grid

zealous karma
gleaming smelt
zealous karma
#

Abomasnow

gleaming smelt
#

oops she's lvl 1

zealous karma
#

Level her up to 125 if you can and then using the grids from sparks grid I’d definitely grab super preparation in her TM tho

gleaming smelt

okay thanks!

i also tried the team you recommended and it didn't work for me unfortunately
i killed the middle but the sides kept spamming earthquake and i died smh
i tried it with ghetsis but only managed to get 1200 points

zealous karma
#

Oh rip the team usually works for me in 2K

austere quest
#

Is Jasmine EX’d? That might be why idk

#

Support EX Sort of good

old orchid
#

Jasmine is exed

zealous karma
austere quest
#

Huh

#

Is it somehow outdated? Or just unlucky?

zealous karma
#

It could be a 3 star vs 5 star difference

#

But star differences very rarely matter

swift swan
austere quest
#

I am definitely Offtyping a majority of next week

#

SSteven+SST Red carries me in that regard

zealous karma
#

Next week has very easy types I feel

dark osprey
# civic trellis This good for next week?

The ssr Cynthia team wouldn't need dawn when you have Sonia. Can get another ghost damage dealer or someone like Nanu for flinch and screech. The SS Hilda team also similarly may not benefit much with SS Kris. Instead probably get sun. SsGiovanni team needs speed/gauge mostly especially if you're bringing Bertha for sand

zealous karma
#

Ghost Gio
Fire silver
Dragon Cyrus
Fairy sycamore

#

J might try smth diff next week because I feel I do the same things for those types

dark osprey
#

Hoping Fantina would be able to almost one shot without zone

zealous karma
#

-6 spdef is helpful

dark osprey
#

Yeah that's a bit much to ask for

zealous karma
#

It’s a good multiplier

#

Not when she has mind games

#

It would take 3 turns max

dark osprey
#

First 3 turns -6 would be difficult

#

Will go for super preparation anyways

#

And even -3 would be nice

zealous karma
#

That’s 40% debuff from shadow ball and 50% from mind games with a support you can prolly just attack every turn

#

She’s like one of the best spdef debuffers nkw

#

And if you have Lucian it’s even easier to setup

old orchid
#

The bottom sync tile isnt connected

zealous karma
#

Dying

dark osprey
#

Yeah. She's good with mind games. Just need to use that TM on one of the moves though

old orchid
#

Tho i prefer picking CS2 since i probably use her with SS Brendan or Lucian

zealous karma
#

Oh I didn’t see the cs2 tile lel

old orchid
#

I would pick PF5 too, but its too far

dark osprey
#

True. CS2 is just easy multiplier

#

Guess it's either nuke or dps like most other pairs with her

#

Unlike Kris maybe

#

Kris was like do everything at once and some more

old orchid
#

I would remove some sync tiles to reach CS2

#

So that she can do dps and nuke at once

zealous karma
#

Ye I didn’t even know she had the tile lel

dark osprey
#

I'm thinking of not even going for on a roll maybe

old orchid
#

Yeah you can bring a spdef debuffer

zealous karma
#

Ye

#

I’m going to use my new 3/5 base Morty for phoebe and cry if it doesn’t work

dark osprey
#

Morty could be used with any other striker because of gauge. That's a good thing

#

And yeah nuke

#

Fantina, Morty and Phoebe EX was my go to ghost team

old orchid
#

His 2 turn move is GretaCringe

#

Use Helena BlueYea

dark osprey
#

Yeah. Kinda. Hopefully can try denials to counter the 2 turns with double striker

dark osprey
zealous karma
#

I don’t like Helena’s Kit Man

dark osprey
#

Boring?

zealous karma
#

In a sense

dark osprey
#

Oh wait. Agatha is coming too right?

zealous karma
#

Oo right

old orchid
#

Helena did 34k nuke offtype even without exBrendanWoah

zealous karma
#

I might try her to

zealous karma
#

Do you have zone how lel

old orchid
#

Tho i used 2 ghost rebuff

zealous karma
swift swan
#

my ghost team is usually Red/SSR Cynthia/Morty and I use their two-turn moves to deny sides right after Red's support sync

zealous karma
old orchid

2 of them are literally floating

dark osprey

#

Yeah his sustain is crazy good

#

I only have him at 1/5 tho

dark osprey
#

Ah. At least the rebuffs are great and still physical tanking

zealous karma
dark osprey
#

Don't know how the rng would work though

zealous karma
#

It took me a minute to find the exact clear GoTotodile

dark osprey
#

Ghost as a type has become quite stacked now

zealous karma
#

Oh I searched it lel I just kept getting moved down by discord it was annoying

#

I’m waiting for a ghost type unit I like

old orchid
#

If only we have a f2p usable physical ghost striker

zealous karma
#

Gio still beats wise entry Lucian so

old orchid
zealous karma
#

I believe I beat it with an F2P team to

old orchid
#

I used nuke Phoebe and dps Kiawe

#

On Lucian

dark osprey
#

Yeah. That was kinda nice that Lucian was bearable

zealous karma
dark osprey
#

On that note, holiday Jasmine power reserves memes not in yet?

#

Zinfogel surely working up to it

zealous karma
#

The only ghost pair I find a bit interesting rn is prolly SSKorrina Forty and Facerola

zealous karma
dark osprey
#

Why 3/5? I meant as a support for power reserves pairs

#

Since she gives endurance and even SEUN for the extra benefit on type

zealous karma
#

Oh

#

I thought you meant she had power reserves

#

Maybe because a lot of power reserves mons aren’t very self sufficient on the offensive front

dark osprey
#

Ah no. Don't think she can do much with thundershock

#

Still would get some done for sure

#

Zinfogel going to showcase her soon. He did do the tornadus solo at 3/5 only

#

Btw, how do you guys search for the Japanese content?

zealous karma

Thanks šŸ‘

And yes, R2 Glacia.

Got a hop?

Also that

3/5 her if possible

I just don't have enough strike candies lmao

Use Slowgaleo

#

Lmao Slowgaleo

#

why call it that way tho

keen jasper
toxic cobalt
#

Needs speed support :PrycePain

void wyvern
#

Even then he’s still too slow

TM also consumes gauges

Aaron buffs crit right?

Yes.

keen jasper
pine spruce
#

ATK, Crit

keen jasper

From his TM

void wyvern

Then just need a speed buffer SophoKEK

what would be a good speed buffer tho,

It exists to buff speed

Machamp guy

oh him

I'm sure he's maxxed lol

#

or if not, 3/5ed

wonder where we can get more 3* candies lol. really want to buff this korrina

formal vigil
#

From events

zealous karma
#

Bruno is really nice for this stage

toxic cobalt
#

I love Korrina

toxic cobalt
zealous karma
#

His TM buffs SpDef so it’s not to bad

void wyvern
#

Bruno does solid damage.

toxic cobalt
#

He does but in my mind he’s still gridless

#

I think he is slightly better than Korrina raw damage wise

zealous karma
#

Better sync too

void wyvern
#

His grid gives him an additional 20% on crit strike 2, 30% on smart cookie for normal damage.

For sync he gets double down 5 and super prep 4.

zealous karma
#

Very nice grid

#

Forgot to put grids lilblurry

keen jasper
#

Would've it been better if I had SS Kris?

#

With 8 stacks of SpMUN too

#

Oh

I didn't realise wise entry

Is your Hala 3/5?

Wait

#

It's 2/5

keen jasper
#

Hmmmmmm

keen jasper
old orchid
#

2/5 is enough

keen jasper
#

Just make Hala focus on the sides and Candice will nuke Drake

tranquil pier
#

Ok

#

Should I go straight for Candice nuke or use a support sync?

keen jasper
sinful garden
# tranquil pier Ok

Remember to always keep hail on, you absolutely dont want drake to attack with sandstorm active

old orchid
#

I did a clear with no grid EX Hala, Candice and EX SS Blue with pre sync set

tranquil pier
old orchid
#

If you want the footage visit my forum

keen jasper
tranquil pier
#

Skyla, Hala, candice

keen jasper
#

Good enough, but since it's round 3, sides can potentially do Iron Head and flinch your Skyla

tranquil pier
#

Should I leave it to round 4 then?

old orchid
#

You have to do post sync set tho

keen jasper
sinful garden
tranquil pier
#

Idk man, taking in a lot

#

Probably

keen jasper

#

I only have Phoebe and drake left

Do you have a solid dark attacker?

#

Um

#

Karen ig?

void wyvern
keen jasper
tranquil pier
#

Yeah

keen jasper
#

Perfect

#

She'll do well for Phoebe, but Phoebe's sync is physical

void wyvern
#

I’d do phoebe first if you lack a zone clear.

keen jasper
tranquil pier
#

The most of it is darach

#

Already used Cynthia on glacia

#

Don't have Courtney

keen jasper
tranquil pier
#

Yeah

keen jasper
#

So you can use Darach for Phoebe to lower her attack and remove zone

tranquil pier
#

O

#

Nice

keen jasper
#

So Darach, Phoebe and who's your support?

old orchid
#

Can you send your support roster here?

tranquil pier
#

Oh give me a min

old orchid
#

Which supports have you used

tranquil pier
#

Cynthia, Falkner and holiday jasmine

old orchid
#

You are on round 3 right?

tranquil pier
#

Yes

old orchid
#

Well, SS Blue, Hala and Candice for Drake. Since Blue cant max crit so Candice has to grid sure crit after using Hail tile

#

Can save Skyla or Hop for Round 4

tranquil pier
#

Ok

keen jasper
#

I handled Drake with EX Jasmine, Candice and Hala

swift swan
dark osprey
#

first battle parameter may help I guess

#

But Candice does kinda help with gauge slightly enough the other two are quite bad

#

Sometimes just brick break with Hala I guess

swift swan
#

jasmine and hala aren't "quite" bad, their gauge are atrocious CyrusSweat

dark osprey
#

Lol true

#

Jasmine at least has gauge refills

#

Assuming not SC Jasmine

#

Who has catalyst at higher levels

keen jasper

Was it normal Jasmine or SC?

keen jasper
dark osprey
#

Ah she's good

keen jasper
#

I don't even have SC Jasmine

dark osprey
#

Me too. Maybe someday

#

But yeah normal Jasmine gauge refresh is underrated

#

Actually all gauge refreshes are underrated

#

It's always about speed buffs

#

Even in the pre gauntlet era

Or should I say -6

keen silo

Nah 1 stage of SMUN is equal with -6 spdef with mitigation 5

Hmmmm is that so?

#

@keen silo I wonder, did I do it right?

#

Also, 10 stacks of SpMUN

keen silo
#

Looks good yeah

#

Meanwhile they always use X (something) all against me BOOHOO

keen jasper

I was lucky to trigger Brain Gain

Sabrina or another Sp. Atk. Support

A defense buffer that cures poison

tame barn
#

Okay dope

#

What cures poison?

mellow linden
#

Sycamore's Trainer Move can, Dawn's Trainer Move can, some Sync Pairs have status shield in their kit. I think you can use the filters to find who can do it

tame barn
#

Yall are great

#

Thanks!

keen jasper
keen silo
#

Go for Gio Bianca Sycamore first in that case

Only con is you don't get the usual 2x sync buff when syncing with sycamore first, but see if psychic terrain from Bianca can make up for it

Not if I presync nuke their butts first

Half sync can be useful sometimes like if ur striker has a mega

mellow linden

Oh, wait, -1 isn’t a round parameter

My bad

grand trout

Wait call me dumb but

Half sync isn't that bad whenever there's fire weakness personally since I can set up Silver fast SilverSwag
