Champion Stadium

[mellow linden]

And is he Power Boosted?

[zealous karma]

(By not fun to use I mean she is difficult to use lel)

oh wait wh zinnia without weather

[formal musk]

yup i have silver + powerboost

[zealous karma]

Zinnia with weather should one shot sides

with DA

[mellow linden]

If you have 3/5 Hilbert or Sonia then one of them + Silver + Blaine or another Sun setter

[zealous karma]

zinnia might be easier as she is on type

[mellow linden]

Can do a different grid and run Skyla instead of Hilbert/Sonia if neither are 3/5

[mellow linden]

Possibly

But at least the option is there

[formal musk]

ok ill do that

[zealous karma]

Hop Zinnia Winona is good you have the crutch of flinches on sides even if she does not one shot

[mellow linden]

Ah, true, that could work

[zealous karma]

I would save silver for a "harder" fight

But this week seems very doable entirely F2P

Might run out of crit buffers nvm pain+

[marsh crater]

Finally i reach master

[spring fable]

Grats!

[old orchid]

We need a f2p strong bug dps so that people will not struggle on Bug CS stages

or learn how to use Bugsy abd Noland lel

[keen silo]

Trying EX Lusamine on that for 2k

otherwise its off typing again

[steel kelp]

burgh

[old orchid]

Going to use either Sabrina or SS Elesa as a support for special Bug types on Karen

They are weak to Dark

[keen silo]

Remove the b and its how i think about him

Worked out anyway 😉

[steel kelp]

Looks like she’s already dead

But if it works it works

[keen silo]

Endurance 💪

[weak sleet]

Is there a better way to build this? Lysandre doesn't seem good and I don't have many good flying types.

[old orchid]

How many types have you filled in the type medal?

[dusty path]

8 😂

[drifting steppe]

Also, what parameters do you have on this one (the battle conditions on the bottom)

Does it want you to deal physical or special damage?

[dusty path]

Like what round?

[weak sleet]

None I don't have challenge mode unlocked yet.

[old orchid]

Im blind

[drifting steppe]

I meant what round

[drifting steppe]

ye

[weak sleet]

Oh this is round 4

[old orchid]

You can do stall

[weak sleet]

Which is status conditions

[old orchid]

With Skyla as a tank

[drifting steppe]

is flinch a status condition

[dusty path]

Flinch is status change/interference, but the round parameter mentions them too

[old orchid]

I think it boosts flinch duration?

[toxic cobalt]

Don't think so

[old orchid]

Well it boosts dmg from poison so stalling is the best answer

Using Koga and Viola means you get Poison and Bug type filled

Unless you used a Bug dmg dealer on Karen

[dusty path]

If this is round 4, how many medal types do you still have to complete? (I don't remember if the ones you've done this week count toward the 8 or not)

[old orchid]

Yeah we need to know your type medal

[keen silo]

The ones you've done this week will say "In Progress"
It will count once you complete the CS for this week

[weak sleet]

Yeah I used alder and Genesect

Probably was overkill

With Aaron as support

[keen silo]

For hard mode yeah, could've maybe slotted in a type filler

[old orchid]

Yeah...

So for round 4, do you have BP Erika? Or Lodge Lillie?

[weak sleet]

I have both of those

[old orchid]

So Janine - BP Erika - Skyla

For round 4

[stray sentinel]

Need to use Karen specifically but wondering if another support would help.

[old orchid]

Do you have a better tank?

Preferly the one which doesnt have a type filled in the medal yet

[keen silo]

Idk if 2/5 karen can access the Satisfied Snarl 9 grid

But if she can, you dont really need nanu

[weak sleet]

Thanks!

[old orchid]

SS9 is 3/5 sadly

[stray sentinel]

Dang

[stray sentinel]

Hmm let me see

[keen silo]

Ah rip

[old orchid]

This is hard mode so you dont need to bring Nanu

Find a good spdef tank

[keen silo]

(you can just ignore the def gimmick )

[steel kelp]

Or just someone else

For type medal

[old orchid]

Yeah you need to fill most type possible

Oh dang Water is filled

Will stage uses special so BP Morty is a bit waste

[keen silo]

would suggest roxanne if he can upgrade it

[old orchid]

Yeah, but she needs 4*

Can still use Elio

Oh right which round are you in? @stray sentinel

[keen silo]

Definitely doable

[old orchid]

Should try Roxanne first yeah

[keen silo]

@stray sentinel do you have enough 3* powerups to upgrade Roxanne?

[toxic cobalt]

Just run without powerups if needed, it's hard mode

[white gale]

PSA dont misread round 1 parameters and fight Bruno first

[zealous karma]

[reef sierra]

My 2nd 10k /1st johto 10k 😭 finally

[swift swan]

congrats! don't forget to post it in #1010274591601598555

[zealous karma]

Wth bullying

What did johtk ever do to you

[molten nimbus]

^ 😭

[swift swan]

being weak

[reef sierra]

not being sinnoh/hoenn 😂

[marsh crater]

For master i dun need to care about medal right?

[dark osprey]

medal is needed to access Master mode for a region and is one time for a region. then its anything goes

[marsh crater]

Let do it hoo hah

2000 point per elite four for full reward?

[zealous karma]

If you want to sure check the pins if you need recommendations for parameters and if you want help choosing units for teams I’ll be here but not for much linger

[swift swan]

if it's your first time, 850 is fine (4.2k points total)

it gives you the best rewards

[fiery agate]

This isn’t working at all

[gilded stream]

I don’t think silver don’t do much in off types😅 correct me if I am wrong!

[old orchid]

is that power boosted Silver?

[old orchid]

his sync offtype is good, tho his dps is decent

[gilded stream]

Ok. If sun is up before his sync he can do more damage. Right? Anyway his sync will bring sun up but will that be effective as former?

[fiery agate]

Yes

Sun is alr up before his sync

[old orchid]

what params are you using?

[fiery agate]

Pre sync

[old orchid]

you always want sun up when his sync is ready

sun from his passive will always fade away before next sync

[old orchid]

you havent max his speed

+4 atk is fine tho

is your Skyla EXed?

[fiery agate]

No

I’m still relatively new everything is so weak

Pure pain

Reduced parameters to 1k and it worked better

[old orchid]

well for new players aim for lower goal first: like 4.2k points

[fiery agate]

Needs tips for Koga next

Currently using Hop, Pigeot blue and Zinnia

[old orchid]

is Zinnia power boosted?

[fiery agate]

I think so

Maybe not

[old orchid]

can she mega evolve?

cuz her power boost was being able to mega evolve

[fiery agate]

Clutched it thank god

Yeah mega evolved

Just Bruno and Lance left

[toxic cobalt]

Late to this and it’s cleared, just a note that this is not quadqueued and I reckon with a quadqueue you’d have made it

[hollow goblet]

For 1500 Koga would a skyla-EX sync or Blue Pidgeot sync be better? I'm doing post sync, cos I figured Blur's output only comes after mega

[sand karma]

Sync first with blue, then second sync with Skyla just do hurricanes with blue after he's fully buffed

[hollow goblet]

Thank you!

[zealous karma]

I was able to beat that stage with the same team as well

[void wyvern]

Solar flare 9 really just hits hard.

[zealous karma]

You just have to quad quad queue

[old orchid]

Did you sync with Skyla?

[zealous karma]

Not I didn’t

I also recorded it

[old orchid]

Oh nice

[zealous karma]

https://streamable.com/q9qwe3

I always wondered why Karen always seemed to flinch me I didn’t know she had aggravation

Also I didn’t crit the sharpedo twice which whicu pain

[void wyvern]

Poma tools says she doesn’t. I think the game just likes flinching you.

[toxic cobalt]

Man Koga hits hard post-synce

[stray sentinel]

Any suggestions or guidance to not get sunk by Karen’s sync move ?

[marsh crater]

Umbreon stored attack is pain

Before that it do sure crit up

[versed meteor]

Did 6k with this teams, am i under using them if so how can i use them to get to 10k

[toxic cobalt]

Viola is not much help here. You want to be winning before sync

[swift swan]

Bring a fast offense buffer. Lillie works fine for attack and sp attack but then Lusamine needs 3 turns to max her crit

[stray sentinel]

faulkner?

[toxic cobalt]

Karen is shaky but the other teams seem like easy 2ks

[stray sentinel]

he has dire hit all so I am assuming thats whats misisng?

I did viola to reduce special attack

n trap

[swift swan]

Noland probably wants a few more levels (and maybe a secondary damage dealer? Hilbert can support two damage dealers well enough) but the rest look doable 10k

[swift swan]

Sure

[versed meteor]

Ok let me try then

[toxic cobalt]

What is the state of Noland, is he gridded?

[stray sentinel]

Now, what do I do about lusamine getting one shot in the sync?

[toxic cobalt]

If not I recommend switching to Bugsy

[swift swan]

I hate to break it to you but Lusamine, with her paper thin defenses that are literally worse than an eggmon, will barely be able to tank a sync even at -6 sp attack you have to kill karen before she syncs

[stray sentinel]

ohh i got you

[swift swan]

I really can't envision a world where Lusamine lives a sync, I'm sorry

Maybe I'm being too harsh on Lusamine lmao

[stray sentinel]

Im fighting Koga with that team

[toxic cobalt]

Lusamine EX with full def buffs facing a fully debuffed mid will survive one sync

[swift swan]

In hard mode, I suppose

But let's not try

[stray sentinel]

Dang lusamine , even with grid she sucks defensively?

[swift swan]

Yes

Very good offensively though

High offenses, good gauge management, can do dual strike pretty well

[toxic cobalt]

If you got a 3/5 Burgh, use that instead of Lusamine

[stray sentinel]

oh no its karen LOL nvm

[mellow linden]

Lusamine is the glass cannon

[swift swan]

You look up glass canon in the urban dictionary and it'll have her picture underneath

[stray sentinel]

see problem is when I kill karen the other pairs wild out with their attacks

[swift swan]

In that case, Lillie barely adds anything

Any other bug damage dealer that you can run alongside Lusamine?

[marsh crater]

How to kill karen? At 850 still cant kill that umbreon

[mellow linden]

What team are you using?

[marsh crater]

I run aaron noland viola

[mellow linden]

Is Aaron 2/5 or higher?

[marsh crater]

Aaron 1/5

I dunno what to use

[mellow linden]

Is Hop gridded, and can you get Bugsy and Noland to level 120 and grid them?

[marsh crater]

Hop fully gridded

Noland half gridded

Bugsy lvl 1

[mellow linden]

Can you level 120 and grid Bugsy?

[marsh crater]

Today cant

Maybe in few days

[mellow linden]

Alright, probably better to off-type then if you want to clear the fight today

[marsh crater]

I can level him. But sync orb is scarce

[mellow linden]

Grid is the important part, unfortunately

[marsh crater]

Yea i know

[marsh crater]

Still not clear bruno and karen

[stray sentinel]

all my bug babies

[marsh crater]

My mewtwo not fully gridded

[mellow linden]

Do you have Bianca?

[marsh crater]

No bianca

What about bruno?

[mellow linden]

That's why I was asking about Bianca

[marsh crater]

I tried sycamore giovani sabrina

I dun have bianca. Bianca for bruno?

[mellow linden]

Without her it might be a little hard since your Giovanni isn't fully gridded, but plenty doable

Sycamore and Sabrina is redundant, you'll wanna pick one or the other and replace the one you get rid of with a Defense buffer like Skyla

[marsh crater]

Maybe can put ss blue, sycamore, giovani

[swift swan]

Hmmm. No burgh

[mellow linden]

That can work

[toxic cobalt]

Seems wasteful

[swift swan]

Other strong offtype damage dealers?

[spring fable]

i used sabrina gio and skyla

[marsh crater]

Sabrina only 1/5

[stray sentinel]

plenty. I have ny lizia, or chapion serena

[toxic cobalt]

1/5 is fine

[mellow linden]

That's all she needs

[toxic cobalt]

You don't have grid anywa

[mellow linden]

If you're sticking with Sabrina then do Sabrina/Giovanni/Skyla if Skyla's still available

[swift swan]

Then I would suggest you offtype with either of them. Genpool and f2p bugs are admittedly not the best type

[marsh crater]

Giovani have to be fully grid first

[mellow linden]

Tank with Skyla

[mellow linden]

It's only 850, you should be fine

[swift swan]

Lusamine + Cerena + Falkner, gauge should be fine. Cerena keeps using brutal swing, you might be lucky and flinch

You said you could kill Karen but not the sides, right

[marsh crater]

By the time umbreon faint. Im just left with half life pinsir

[mellow linden]

Could you show your remaining available Strikers/Techs?

[stray sentinel]

I did it!

[mellow linden]

I think if you want to do the fight today then off-typing is your best bet

[mellow linden]

Congrats!

[stray sentinel]

ty guys

is blue w pidgeot a good flying attacker or winona hurrican hits harder?

[mellow linden]

Blue + Pidgeot is fine

[toxic cobalt]

Is Blue 2/5?

[marsh crater]

How about silver and ss erika?

[toxic cobalt]

And gridded?

[mellow linden]

Is your Silver Power Boosted?

[marsh crater]

Nope

[stray sentinel]

blue is 1/5

[marsh crater]

I missed the event

[mellow linden]

Can't off-type then

Sadly

[marsh crater]

Owh mannn

[stray sentinel]

I can grid a 1/5 blue + pdgeot

[marsh crater]

Solgaleo?

[mellow linden]

Definitely not

[marsh crater]

What u mean off type?

[stray sentinel]

Like not the recommended type

[mellow linden]

Clear using a type that's not super-effective

Can you show your remaining available Strikers/Techs?

[stray sentinel]

Do you have SS Red and a sun setter, would that work?

[marsh crater]

Include the 3*?

[mellow linden]

Doesn't matter

[stray sentinel]

You'd be surprised hwo good 3 stars are

[mellow linden]

Oh, some are great, just usually not for off-typing

[stray sentinel]

I do have a winona at 2/5 maybe ill grid her and replace blue with her for now

[swift swan]

When we ask to screenshot your box, we assume you own all the 3 and 4*s

At least, the non-limited ones

To avoid clutter

[toxic cobalt]

Not feeling 1/5 Blue or 2/5 Winona

[stray sentinel]

ko

[stray sentinel]

Lol I have zinnia 5/5 but meh

[toxic cobalt]

Boosted Zinnia?

[swift swan]

Is this about Koga? Remember he has high sp defense

Pffft, Anni Steven

He works

Perfectly

[mellow linden]

Did you already use Champ Serena?

[stray sentinel]

sadly no

[stray sentinel]

yes to fight karen

[marsh crater]

Yea used on will

[stray sentinel]

oh my bad

[mellow linden]

Is May still available?

[stray sentinel]

yuo

[marsh crater]

Yea may still available

I dunno how did i even got kris 3/5

[mellow linden]

Oh wait

[swift swan]

Either powerboosted Zinnia if you have her, Kahili if you're willing to invest the orbs, or just offtype it I suppose

[mellow linden]

Ah, wait, can't do much gridding

Is Cyrus already gridded?

[marsh crater]

Cyrus not gridded.

[stray sentinel]

I have kahli,

[marsh crater]

Ghetsis also not gridded

Palkia is strong

[swift swan]

At least grab his critical focus tile, bottom left. If possible

[mellow linden]

How many universal Sync Orbs do you have?

[marsh crater]

0 at the moment

[stray sentinel]

but at 1/5 if that matters

[marsh crater]

Used all on nolan.

[mellow linden]

Ok, then either wait or Poison stall it is

[swift swan]

Hmmm yknow what, she may be a bit hard to work with. Personally I don't have much experiences with Kahili myself
hides my barely level 100 Kahili

[toxic cobalt]

Sometimes you gotta stall

1/5 Kahili won't do it

[marsh crater]

Lucy not gridded

[swift swan]

Zinnia? 1/5?

[stray sentinel]

no kahli

[swift swan]

Oh

[marsh crater]

Ok if i reset and do karen first

[stray sentinel]

I guess 2.5 winona with some grid work?

[marsh crater]

Whats the team?

[swift swan]

I think Zinnia is better then, if she's powerboosted (has access to mega)

[mellow linden]

Lucy wouldn't need grid, grid just makes it smoother

[marsh crater]

Will i dunno who to use

[mellow linden]

No need to reset it

[toxic cobalt]

No, offtype or stall

[stray sentinel]

ok

[marsh crater]

Then poison team is?

[mellow linden]

You can do Bruno on Round 3 and Poison stall Karen on Round 4

[swift swan]

If you don't have access to Zinnia & Mega Rayquaza, then yeah, offtype or stall

[mellow linden]

Team would be Lucy/Janine/a tank, grids don't matter on Lucy/Janine

[marsh crater]

Just level em up to 130?

[mellow linden]

Level 120

[stray sentinel]

tough part is getting the type medals used.

I dont even have a good ground type or posion type that I know of

[swift swan]

Can you screenshot your medal progress

[toxic cobalt]

Sorry if I've missed things, what round is this, what types do you need?

[swift swan]

Usually for this we just use a filler mon and sacrifice them to the masses for their medal piece

[mellow linden]

It's only 850 points, just grab enough Defense/Max HP/shield parameters to hit 850

[marsh crater]

So how to use them?

[swift swan]

Lucy uses poison fang on all 3 enemies until they get poisoned, then use Wrap on all 3 too. Janine spams venom drench. Your tank outlives

[mellow linden]

If Lucy doesn't Poison the center on her 1st Poison Fang, restart the fight. Janine spams Venom Drench until the entire enemy team is at -6 Attack/Sp. Atk./Speed. Lucy Poisons and traps all opponents. Tank just sits there and stays alive

[marsh crater]

Can i put sycamore janine lucy?

[mellow linden]

That can work

[swift swan]

Sure

Make sure Sycamore has recuperation on grid

[mellow linden]

Just make sure Sycamore has his Recuperation tile

[swift swan]

Keep syncing with hin

[marsh crater]

Recuperation, he didnt need healing hand isnt it?

[swift swan]

Not needed in this fight

[spring fable]

which e4 is he trying to poison stall?

[stray sentinel]

recup heals him on sync i thinl

[mellow linden]

Karen

[marsh crater]

Ok impervious and recuperation then

Ok im gonna set em up

[mellow linden]

I've recommended to save her for Round 4 and do Bruno for Round 3

[marsh crater]

Save who?

[mellow linden]

Karen

[marsh crater]

What u mean by round?

[mellow linden]

Take Karen on last of the Elite 4

[swift swan]

Anyway, I really need to go to sleep right now, I gotta wake up early tomorrow because for once I'm going outside and touching grass and being busy ever since uni break night all, good luck

[spring fable]

night nov!

[mellow linden]

Since the extra benefit for the 4th Elite 4 fight means Poison and Trap will deal more damage

[marsh crater]

Ohh

[stray sentinel]

night ty

[marsh crater]

Then my worries is bruno

Sabrina giovani and….?

[mellow linden]

It's only 850, Sabrina/Giovanni/ a good physical tank will be fine

Skyla is my recommendation if you're using Sycamore for the stall team

[marsh crater]

Physical tank, hop can?

[keen jasper]

Bianca

[mellow linden]

They don't have Bianca

[keen jasper]

Hmmmm

[marsh crater]

Wait im gonna see if skyla available

[mellow linden]

Hop can work if you don't plan to use him elsewhere

[keen jasper]

Then I guess a defense buffer

[marsh crater]

Sadly no

Hop giovani sabrina?

[mellow linden]

Should be fine

[marsh crater]

Or sabrina giovani ss blue

[keen jasper]

And with Hop's TM, you don't need to use Giovanni's TM

[mellow linden]

Do you have your team for Lance planned out already?

[marsh crater]

Ah

No

Headache to make team

[stray sentinel]

you will get it

[mellow linden]

Save Hop for now and use SS Blue then

IMO

[marsh crater]

Lance, hop hau and….?

[mellow linden]

Roxanne

[keen jasper]

Yeah Roxanne, because she buffs both speed and Sp. Atk.

[marsh crater]

Hop hau roxanne then

[keen jasper]

And she also buffs defense too

[marsh crater]

Roxanne no need grid?

How to use her wide guard tho?

[mellow linden]

Don't use it until after center goes down

[marsh crater]

So aim for center first?

[toxic cobalt]

Almost always

[keen jasper]

Yes

[mellow linden]

Yes, that's generally the best method

[marsh crater]

In the meantime spam ancient power?

[keen jasper]

But Hau's Discharge is AoE so you don't need to worry about the sides

[mellow linden]

Once all her buffs have been used, yeah

[marsh crater]

Cause hau raichu discharge probably killed side first

Hop grid?

[mellow linden]

Trainer Move MP Refresh and all Potion tiles on Hop

[marsh crater]

Hau i didnt grid. But maybe ill try grid for discharge

[mellow linden]

It's only 850, Hau's grid doesn't matter rn

[marsh crater]

Hop i use gradual heal tile and some behemoth power up

Potion refresh too

[mellow linden]

Don't bother buffing his damage, get his "Hop to It!" MP Refresh tile and all his Potion tiles

[marsh crater]

Oh

And other go to stat?

Other important tile i need to get beside potion and hop to it

[toxic cobalt]

Those are the important ones

Save you for elsewhre

[hot shadow]

Stat/bp tiles are generally not important

Not as important as skills, anyway

So picking them when you're low on orbs isn't the best idea

[marsh crater]

Well i already have 750 hop orb

Well maybe i put it on his sync move

Sync tile

+25 means 25% dmg boost?

[hot shadow]

He's a support most of the time, you won't sync with him before he gets his EX

+25 means +25 base power

[fiery agate]

I’ll look into it more carefully

[marsh crater]

In fight with lance. Hop hau roxanne. Whose sync move should i use?

[void wyvern]

Hau

[fiery agate]

What’s the general strat for Bruno?

[hot shadow]

Giovanni

[fiery agate]

Ghetsis nuke?

[void wyvern]

Giovanni cleans up Bruno.

[fiery agate]

Ah ok

What are good combinations with Giovanni?

[void wyvern]

Bring gio, any special Atk buffer and either psychic terrain or sp def debuffer

[toxic cobalt]

Usually Sabrina and Bianca, if you don't have Sabrina add Roxanne, if you don't have Bianca add a tank

[fiery agate]

Rotom?

[fiery agate]

Surprisingly I have both

[void wyvern]

Rotom or Sabrina will do just fine.

But Bianca is important

[toxic cobalt]

Now all you have to do is not get close combatted

[fiery agate]

Like this?

[fiery agate]

RNG based?

[hot shadow]

Bianca tanks better than Sabrina byw

[void wyvern]

Definitely need to level them up. But you have the idea

If you can grid, grab CS3 off gio’s grid.

[fiery agate]

Yeah ofc hahaha

[fiery agate]

I spent so much grid orbs these 2 days broke af

[void wyvern]

That’s alright. If the team doesn’t work without grids there is always tomorrow

[fiery agate]

My goal is 1k points only anyways. Should’ve manageable

[void wyvern]

Oh definitely.

[toxic cobalt]

Remember to use psychic terrain as Bianca's third move

and sixth move

[void wyvern]

May take a few tries because close combat go brrrrrr but you got this!

[hot shadow]

Why not second?

[void wyvern]

I think so you get more uptime after sync with terrain.

[toxic cobalt]

Less buffer after second sync to clear sides

[hot shadow]

Fair

[fiery agate]

Bruno is such a pain man

[toxic cobalt]

hoo hah!

[void wyvern]

What happened to your health bar? Asks Bruno

What round are you on?

[fiery agate]

God knows how many tries lol

I’m not quad queuing very well

Ok I’m giving up for today

[void wyvern]

You mean triple queuing?

[marsh crater]

For ss blue sabrina giovani. Who is the first tank?

[dark osprey]

Ss blue. But that comp seems a bit redundant with both ss blue and Sabrina together

[hot shadow]

SSBlue is much bulkier than Sabrina

One of the bulkiest pairs in the game

[dark osprey]

Guess you don't have Bianca yet

[hot shadow]

They don't overlap much, do they?

[dark osprey]

Not much yeah but could probably get some other support/zone or disruptor maybe

[marsh crater]

Bruno close combat just one shot crit my sycamore

This guy is crazy i tell u

[keen jasper]

Well, what are the chances of that happening

[dark osprey]

I mean Sabrina with ssb would just be there for buffing sp atk. Can use a cheaper support for that or keep Sabrina and use a defense buffer/healer or sleeper

Can always do the classic f2p core of gio and Rosa

[marsh crater]

Yea it works

Ss blue giovani sabrina

Really need to use reflect before bruno sync move

Defense from blastoise need at least one mp refresh

Blastoise endure only occur once per battle?

[fiery agate]

This does put a smile on my face

6.2k

[void wyvern]

That’s great! Congratulations!

[sand karma]

Congrats
But you really should've done 2k
It's cake with that team

[fiery agate]

ive done 2k on that team dont worry haha

[sand karma]

Oh i read it wrong sorry

[fiery agate]

the rest of the teams less prepared for 2k

[sand karma]

[fiery agate]

1 step closer to 10k in the future

theoretically you can beat 10k with free mons right? If so i don't need to be so concerned about getting limited mons

[sand karma]

Johto ? Certainly

There's some weird stuff in Sinnoh & Hoenn you should just be prepared to offtype

[fiery agate]

so having at least some powerful limited nukes would be ideal just in case

[sand karma]

cough sentry entry steel weak Glacia cough

[sand karma]

Yep

But mostly just focus on favorites and filling types

[fiery agate]

my favourites are all in SInnoh so might have to wait for a while until i get new good pairs

[sand karma]

Same

[fiery agate]

i guess the silver lining is that i can save up more gems if im disciplined enough

did u pull Dawn lol

[sand karma]

Which is the hardest part of this game

[fiery agate]

and im most certainly a cynthia simp too

[fiery agate]

i used up all my recent luck by pulling jasmine, calem and Lillie i must hold off

[sand karma]

I joined September
So i only got Lucas from the paid scout
Waiting for SSCyrus and SSDawn rerun in paid scouts
And SSRCynthia return which should be soon

[fiery agate]

i joined Sep too eyy

spent all gems on Cynthia Lucario t

[fiery agate]

ye i want Lucas too

[sand karma]

I spent gems unwisely and ended up with only Ash at that time

Anyway I think we shouldnt be having this conversation in this channel

[fiery agate]

yes lmao sorry everyone

[marsh crater]

Beat karen. And like always only xerneas left to live

[zealous karma]

Actually crying

[desert berry]

Hello wht’s a good Will comp?

[rotund lagoon]

CCalem, CSerena and Nessa are good.

[desert berry]

Annie!

[rotund lagoon]

And for nuke, do Serena when Dark. You can also do Calem first if he’s EX’d

[desert berry]

He’s not EXed yet

[rotund lagoon]

Serena’s fine then.

She got one hell of a nuke (or two cause it’s good for both types)

[desert berry]

Okay! Who will be my tanker?

[rotund lagoon]

Calem.

He’s the only Support on that team, so have him do it.

[desert berry]

I wonder who should I be using for these 4

Can random fillers work?

[zealous karma]

Those look like poison stall types

Hype

[rotund lagoon]

You got other matches left?

[desert berry]

Haven’t really startrd

[zealous karma]

Oh wait there’s ice there

It’s so hidden

[desert berry]

[rotund lagoon]

Bug and Psychic are covered by the weaknesses of this week.

[zealous karma]

Oh you can get all 15 types

2 of those are on type too

Do you have Gio, and do you have bugsy (preferably gridded) ?

[desert berry]

I don’t really have a good bug pair i think

[rotund lagoon]

You got Bugsy.

And Noland.

[zealous karma]

That is the psychic roster ever

Very nice

[desert berry]

I wonder where I can get my last Mew pair for 5/5

[rotund lagoon]

Did you not finish the bingo?

[desert berry]

I did

But apparently I only have Mew at 4/5

[rotund lagoon]

Did you check the exchange???

[zealous karma]

Bianca + Gio + Roxanne
Bugsy hop bpjanine
Ghetsus Serena Calem for dark

[desert berry]

I did

I can’t find the last exchange thing

[desert berry]

Okay will note thanks!!

Wait im confused on the first and second team. Who are they for?

[zealous karma]

Bianca Gio for psychic
Bugsy for bug

[desert berry]

Oddly enough having Ghetsis on team doesn’t count as Ice

[civic trellis]

It does?

[zealous karma]

If that image loaded I’d be confused

[desert berry]

Oh wait

It does

[zealous karma]

He is counting for ice

[desert berry]

the ice piece is so hard to look at

It camouflages

Never mind never mind

[zealous karma]

With Serena cycle one you’d use TM then cycle second water shuriken then cycle 3rd brutal swing

Ghetsus spam noble roar i@hope@you have double drop gridded

[desert berry]

[rotund lagoon]

IT DO THO!!

[zealous karma]

I know manny people who have forgotten to get ice down because it always looked marked off, I always do ice week one of a new CS just in case

[rotund lagoon]

Here’s this btw

Grid Double Drop on the bottom

[desert berry]

Oh um

[zealous karma]

People use paralysis syngerh Ghetsus?

[rotund lagoon]

This is without expansion

[desert berry]

Oh phew i thought double drop isn’t present when not extended grid

Let me just grid him real quick

[zealous karma]

Even without expansion I can’t imagine using it unless you run PSerena which I don’t imagine is a good@option for him

Or “best” option

[rotund lagoon]

Don’t have her yet

[zealous karma]

[formal vigil]

[rotund lagoon]

Tried to get her in the past, only got Dawn

[desert berry]

Finished Will!

Haven’t really gridded Bugsy

[steel kelp]

dont do bugsy

off type if you can

[rotund lagoon]

Trying to think about Noland…

[steel kelp]

more noland pain

[zealous karma]

What’s wrong with bugsy?

He’s been the source of my easiest bug week experiences even got him to 3K clear once

[rotund lagoon]

I trust your word for that

[formal vigil]

without bug zone?

[zealous karma]

It was the easiest part of that 3K run still can’t explain how

[zealous karma]

Lusamine Sonia Bugsy

It was against bug week grimsley

[steel kelp]

so lusamine

carried

[zealous karma]

Not at all

[mellow linden]

In a comp like that Bugsy handles Sync nuke

[zealous karma]

Her being on the team is what made it so tough

[rotund lagoon]

Lusamine is so hard I stg

[zealous karma]

Much bigger fan off Noland compared to her

[steel kelp]

she'll get a power boost

[rotund lagoon]

More like a defense boost

[zealous karma]

Gets trip up 9 and chase down 3

[formal vigil]

hp 50 node

[zealous karma]

Who’s reset power boost did give them that

[steel kelp]

i think you mean 1k

[formal vigil]

wallys

[steel kelp]

takes all energy

[zealous karma]

It’s random but not as random as shauna having almost 400 Spatk and no special moves

[desert berry]

Is Karen team supposed to look lime this?

[zealous karma]

I meant bp Janine but in this case I’d replace Janine with hop

[desert berry]

Oh i don’t think i picked bp janine

I chose Surge and Morty

[steel kelp]

you can get her eventually

[desert berry]

also what does Noland do in the team with Bugsy if Bugsy is my main striker

[formal vigil]

noaland dps bugsy nukes

[zealous karma]

(Noland DPS with fury cutter)

[zealous karma]

you wouldn’t believe how annoying trying to beat shauntal was for that clear because of half sync countdown

[desert berry]

Oh okay what should i be spamming for Hop and Bugsy?

[void wyvern]

Hop’s tm. bugsy tm twice and use sure crit.

[desert berry]

Thank you!

[zealous karma]

If bugsy is gridded he probably one shots center mon at least mine did

[void wyvern]

Bugsy should do a ton of damage, especially on mid.

[zealous karma]

As soon as bugsy Ex comes out instant 20/20

[void wyvern]

20/20 anyways?

[zealous karma]

No

[void wyvern]

[steel kelp]

not a true bugsy fan

[zealous karma]

I am a huge fan Johto fan lel

I have to many units I still need to Ex

[desert berry]

Wow Bugsy deals A LOT of dmg

[void wyvern]

Bugsy got the big buff

[desert berry]

Now on to Bruno!

[void wyvern]

Good luck!

[desert berry]

How does the sequence of moves work

[steel kelp]

oh hard mode

[void wyvern]

We can swap roxxane out for a type you haven’t used, if you’d like.

[desert berry]

I only have Poison left for pieces if I finish Bruno. I wonder who should I be investing

Oh okay that works

[void wyvern]

Giovanni is pretty damn good.

[desert berry]

[void wyvern]

You have the only option we need. Janine

She’s a bit underwhelming on her own. But venom drench is hilarously broken.

Can you show the rest of your supports?

[desert berry]

But I guess ill be using Janine for the Poison piece

[steel kelp]

wheres the upgrade screen

[desert berry]

[zealous karma]

Idt there’s a poison support in the game apart from BP janine lel

[desert berry]

Ooof

I guess I’ll be getting her the next BP tix I get

[void wyvern]

We just need a good suppprt

This strategy is a bit gimmicky.

[zealous karma]

Roxanne is a good support angry

[void wyvern]

Roxanne actually does just solve your issues.

Setup using X def and then her tm twice. X defence can come again after sync.

Gio does tm twice and either confusion or psychic.

Now he’s the tricky part. Janine needs to poison mid early so you can start using venom drench and debuff Bruno.

[desert berry]

So no Bianca

?

[void wyvern]

Not in this comp.

It’s very unorthodox.

[desert berry]

Okay! I tried one time and failed lmao

With Bianca

[void wyvern]

You need cross poison to poison super early on for this to work.

[desert berry]

It kinda worked that one time but oh well

Mewtwo dies anyways so let me bring Roxanne

[zealous karma]

You could just fit in Janine into your koga or lance team

[desert berry]

Which sync should i be using. Gio or Roxannes?

[void wyvern]

Gio

[zealous karma]

Gio, Roxanne doesn’t have Ex and even if she did you’d best be off syncing with Gio in an in type scenario for it Gio was Ex hed sude deny

[desert berry]

Oh

[void wyvern]

Does gio have a grid?

[desert berry]

Yes using his Pyschic grid

[void wyvern]

The one from the doc?

[desert berry]

Yes that one

[void wyvern]

Should be solid.

[desert berry]

Let me try your suggestion

[void wyvern]

But Roxanne/Janine/Mewtwo should be able to win with ease given the luck.

Just restart until you get the sneaky poison on Bruno and then lower his stats with venom drench. If you have stones we can grid janine so she has an easier time poisoning

[desert berry]

Phew I won

Roxanne died

Bruno got poisoned the first attack Janine did so

[void wyvern]

Easy peasy lemon squeezy

[desert berry]

Thanks Joey!

Now only need to defeat Koga and Lance

[void wyvern]

Happy to help!

So what’s the plan for those 2?

[desert berry]

I have no idea tbh

[zealous karma]

Do you have silver power boost?

And do you have hau

[desert berry]

Silver Ho oh? Yes

[zealous karma]

Use skyla Blaine silver and
Hau Sabrina Volkner for lance

[desert berry]

Hau?

[zealous karma]

Hau is really good

[desert berry]

I don’t think I have Hau. What’s his role?

[void wyvern]

He’s free.

Striker

[zealous karma]

Alolan raichu

[desert berry]

Oh no I don’t have him yet

[void wyvern]

He’s from the main story.

Just go slap through a few stages and grab him.

[zealous karma]

Complete the story it offers very competent units

[desert berry]

Which part

[zealous karma]

Acerola Skyla Hau Cheren Calem

All of it preferably

[desert berry]

After ch. 10?

Oh okay

[zealous karma]

Chapter 11

[desert berry]

Oh let me do it real quick then

And which Volkner

[steel kelp]

You haven’t cleared story?

[desert berry]

Until Ch10 only

Got Hau now

Do I need him to be 3/5?

And gridded though?

[civic trellis]

For main story? No

Maybe for end game stuff

[steel kelp]

story is piss easy

[desert berry]

No I mean for CS

[steel kelp]

you can get through without grids

[civic trellis]

He’s a 4* striker tho and those r alot easier to get than 5* candies

[civic trellis]

Hard or MM?

[desert berry]

Just Hard

[steel kelp]

hard

[civic trellis]

Hmm idk, probably

I struggled w kanto CS when I was new but it may be different for u

[desert berry]

I do have 4 4* striker candies to spare

So I guess might as well

Though sync orbs wise

[zealous karma]

Even if it’s just for hard I’d grid hau he’s a pretty solid long term unit

[desert berry]

[zealous karma]

Just grab this if you can

[desert berry]

How does the move sequence go for with Lance battle

With Hau Sabrina Volkner

[zealous karma]

Idk if Sabrina is 3/5 or not but if she’s not then maybe replace her for someone that can max crit and buff SpAtk do you have CGio?

[desert berry]

[zealous karma]

Actually I’d use CRed instead

[desert berry]

CGio?

[zealous karma]

Persian but you don’t see to have him

[desert berry]

I don’t think I have any of those mentioned

[zealous karma]

Hau TM twice then X Spatk from hau, CRed TM twice on hau heal in case low, thunder fang spam until hau sync then use electric terrain

[desert berry]

[desert berry]

Oh he’s CRed

No electric terrain?

Thanks a lot for help @zealous karma

[zealous karma]

Woops forgot to say that

Yw lel

[void wyvern]

[desert berry]

Yay did it thanks everyone for help

[rotund lagoon]

[marsh crater]

Finally did it 4200

Thanks everyone in here. Next is 10k?

[spring fable]

Can try 6k then 10k

[toxic cobalt]

7.5k is the last big reward (well, big for newer players)

[frank shuttle]

Ugh finally got it done I think this is gonna be my team on hard mode

[trail smelt]

LMAO OP as heck team

[frank shuttle]

😂

[frank shuttle]

Only thing that sucks Ash 2/5

[toxic cobalt]

I've been using the wrong Alder grid for the last 24 hours

[fringe valve]

What increases the opponents tanking ability more, sdef/def up 1 or strength 1

[swift swan]

def/sp def, by a long shot

[fringe valve]

Ty

[zealous karma]

Wow

[untold mesa]

First MM clear

4.2k

[swift swan]

congrats! don't forget to post in #1010274591601598555

[keen jasper]

What a coincidence, next week it grass and rock-weak

Perfect for Shauna and SS Diantha

[swift swan]

All according to keikaku

[spring fable]

Is that uryu

[trail smelt]

Isn’t that Cheren

[dark osprey]

Personally not sure about that. Is it really by a long shot? I had the same question then decided to try it out manually with just those separately and seemed the damage was kinda the same

Especially since def/sp def up1 is 50 pts and strength up1 is 100 pts

[onyx ice]

It depends, the more strength you already picked the least is the impact compared to def/spdef if you have no other strength the bulk increase is basically the same, but with strength 1 you will see slightly bigger numbers

If you have like strength+9 then the impact of def/spdef +1 is higher compared to strength+1

In that case def/spdef +1 will impact almost as strength +2 (ignoring the offensive buffs)

[zealous karma]

He’s doing his best?

[old orchid]

EX him

[onyx ice]

Since his DPS is atrocious, 6ex is his only saving grace

[eternal lodge]

I already tried the ex around 2 months ago or so with rotom and yampier. With 1 support sync with se up and almost -6 def and spe on rival it did around 26k

[onyx ice]

But i feel sa Brock is in that spot that he needs the ex to be usable, but isn't definitely worth it

[swift swan]

first pic is with defense/sp def 1, second pic is with Strength 1. okay, definitely not by a long shot but it really adds up

sure the strength 1 adds some extra HP but it's nothing a single extra hit or high damage rolls can't kill

[onyx ice]

Strength x adds x% to all the stats

But it get split for bulk

Only strength 1 or def 1 should lead to the same bulk increase

Strength is additive but def is multiplicative

So strength 1 + 2 + 6 = 90% bulk increase

Def 1 + 3 + 5 = 1.1 * 1.3 * 1.5 = 114.5% bulk increase

[swift swan]

strength my beloved

thanks for the breakdown

[grand trout]

I'm so excited to use diantha for karen next week

[void wyvern]

It’s going to be hard testing 3/5 Diantha against rock karen. Cakewalk being activated when she has posthaste 9 is haha funny.

[grand trout]

Oh i didn't activate the speed greeds

I used the sandstorm ones

[void wyvern]

Bur she doesn’t have any sand multipliers

[onyx ice]

Want to test the Gordie + Diantha combo

[sand karma]

What synergy do they have?

[marsh crater]

For 6k team. Can i do the same strat as 4.2k? I know i need to grid em especially the dps

Its a whole new level. Omg

6k so its 1200 each?

[toxic cobalt]

What were your 4.2k strats?

[marsh crater]

Err wait i sc wm

[toxic cobalt]

Those look good!

Weakest is Lance

[marsh crater]

Yea weakest is lance. But hop is so good. Once gyarados out he just can behemoth bash the side lane

[toxic cobalt]

so true!

[marsh crater]

I need to get lucky with the potion before gyarados out. That hyperbeam is insane

[toxic cobalt]

I guess Hau is not 3/5?

[marsh crater]

No. Hau at 1/5

[toxic cobalt]

Well anyway, those teams should work! If you can get to 7.5k you get more sync orbs.

[marsh crater]

Oh maybe i can use 4* strike candy for hau? I got 2 so can 3/5 him right away

But the sync orb also problem

[toxic cobalt]

I say deal with that problem when you get to it

[swift swan]

Hau sure loves his grid

[toxic cobalt]

Are SS Steven, Sidney, Giovanni, and Sycamore gridded?

[swift swan]

What other 4* strikers are fighting for candies anyway

[marsh crater]

A.steven. Not ss steven. A.steven 2/5, giovani half gridded. Sidney 1/5 not gridded. Sycamore full grid.

[swift swan]

Anni steven 2/5 is fine

Probably just grab some dragon ascent tiles and the clear power up if you can afford it

[toxic cobalt]

If you're up for it, try 7.5k. This is 1.5k each, however round 4 is an easy 2k, so you can trim down the others if you hit a wall

[marsh crater]

Ok ill try it. Oh i been using draco meteor build a.steven on my 4.2k round. Thats why i been struggling

[swift swan]

Dragon ascent is better in this case

Super effective, plus it's physical

Koga has high special defense

[marsh crater]

I am using dragon ascent. But the tile is for draco meteor. Silly me

Not even 1 sync orb in all 3* chest

Phew

[onyx ice]

They are my 2 best rock types

It's more that i want to see rock zone boosted Max move

[void wyvern]

Gordie has cakewalk and diantha lowers speed.

[sand karma]

[teal siren]

Is there a list that shows what combo of sync pairs can achieve 2k points?

[main crow]

The replays feature

On a more serious note, no not really as technically all pairs can with the right set up

It depends on your roster

[toxic cobalt]

Yeah almost all pairs can achieve it

Just need to build the right teams

[teal siren]

Can I send my roster here and someone kinda help me out those teams together or should I post this somewhere else?

[main crow]

You can post them here

[teal siren]

How should I sort them when I send pics?

[main crow]

Usually the best sorting is by move level

[teal siren]

Here’s my roster. Not sure if any of my 3 stars really matter.

[storm moss]

I know that I've already cleared the stages but are any non EX pairs worth it?

[void wyvern]

Worth what?

[storm moss]

Cus I have been thinking of EXing Volkner but they don't get stat buffs from the actual EX from spirits do they?

[main crow]

Worth the Ex? then CCalem

[void wyvern]

Support ex’s are generally great.

[storm moss]

Ehhh I have too many supports 🙈

[void wyvern]

No such thing as too many supports

[storm moss]

I've got Alister as my next support ready to EX. I've just done Sycamore

The rest that I have are mainly 1/5

But I have been thinking of EXing Lyra and Dawn

[void wyvern]

CCalem, Cerena, Masked royal/Sidney, (will)

Rosa/ Giovanni / lucian (Bruno)

SSA Cynthia/Ash /Volkner (Karen)

SST red, any 2 support (Koga)

Hau skyla falkner

[main crow]

Dark : Sidney/CCalem/Masked royal
Flying : Kahili or Nate/Aaron/Kiawe
Psychic : Giovanni/Lucian/Falkner
Bug : Ash off type
Electric : SST Red solo/a tank

[teal siren]

These teams will work in their current states or do I need to upgrade them?

[main crow]

You may need grid for a more comfortable run

[void wyvern]

Grid is probably useful

[main crow]

Like Giovanni you may want his brainteaser and smarty-pants node so lucian's spdef down deals higher damage

[teal siren]

There’s a resource for that tho right?

[void wyvern]

Yes, sync orbs

You can get those daily from the training section

[main crow]

You get 900 from there daily unless you bought the bundle tho there are other places like lodge expedition and event shop

[toxic cobalt]

Running on the assumption this is hard mode, grid the strikers first. Actually, could you tell us which units are gridded already?

[sand karma]

Why didn't both of you suggest Blue? Isn't he better than Nate?

[main crow]

Flying koga has high special defense

[sand karma]

Oh

Idk if i should feel stupid or proud for clearing it with him

[toxic cobalt]

If it works it works

[main crow]

Don't worry I brought a special flying type too

wise entry x2 before it was cool 💀

[teal siren]

Ash can solo Koga at 2k?

Also does it matter which options I pick to get to 2k?

[main crow]

Yes the selection matters

[main crow]

Probably but I'm not suggesting Ash solo, bring volkner and a tank just to be safe than sorry. Also not Koga but Karen

[main crow]

You can check the pins in this thread to see what points you should pick up depending on how you want to do the stage

[lunar meadow]

Did a 2500 offtype with Dianthie/Excadrill/Archeops.

Not doing mono-type has so much potential for DAMAGE

[sharp totem]

might be a bit overkill for next week

[marsh crater]

I had to ex shiny ray. Huhu koga made me do that

Really need to 3/5 to unlock sync nuke capabilities to max

[rose prism]

What challenge to pick for lance?

[mellow linden]

The safest option is probably faster move gauge, but other options may be preferable based on the team you’re using

[trail smelt]

That’s the one Lance picks haha

But yeah the other 4 are pretty much irrelevant. Maybe physical damage down or sync buff boost

[marsh crater]

Help again with bruno. 1500 this time. Do i need to get all their level to 140?

For will same team is fine. For koga i need to ex A.Steven and use aaron

[marsh crater]

Do i need to grid for sabrina reflect? Her sixth sense refresh is locked until 2/5 huhu

[toxic cobalt]

No

Levels above 100 are minimal

[toxic cobalt]

You don’t need to EX

[toxic cobalt]

This team?

Grid priority is Giovanni

[royal walrus]

So these teams got me to 7500. Reshiram’s team and the Greninja team both did 2k. I put the other sync pairs that I think are viable in the spares team below. Any suggestions on how I could move people around to try to get to 10k? I can send the 5* I have, but I thought this screenshot might be more helpful. Thank you!

[toxic cobalt]

What move level is Sonia?

[royal walrus]

2

I actually did Will for 800 points, and didn't think I'd be able to pass 4k this week. Then I decided to yolo it w/ greninjas and realized I could get them to 2k, so tried to get teams together for 7500

[toxic cobalt]

Please replace Viola with literally anyone else

[royal walrus]

Really? She was kinda key to that comp. Her struggle bug lowered the sp.atk

[toxic cobalt]

What is that comp doing?

[royal walrus]

Surviving 🙂

[toxic cobalt]

True

If you want to do damage you can grid up Bugsy for biking

Nuking*

If you want to go full stall ditch Hop

[royal walrus]

Oh I see. Having Hop and Viola means I'm trying to block physical and spec, and one is probably redundant

[toxic cobalt]

Well Karen does use both, it’s just there are better ways to do both tactics

[royal walrus]

I have Lusamine/Pheromosa and Guzma/Golisopod as my other bug attackers

[toxic cobalt]

They might work!

[royal walrus]

And Bugsby, as well, but just incase either of those were better

[toxic cobalt]

Use whichever one you prefer

[royal walrus]

Okay. So Viola for Lusamine (prefer the boost from Xerneas sync) and then what slot for hop? I don't have much drop sp.def

[toxic cobalt]

Hop is fine, buffs crit

[royal walrus]

Hmm okay, thank you. I think my Lusamine (my preference of the three) needs a lot of love then. Because I tried Hop/Lusamine/Sycamore and the Umbreon's stored power ko's Sycamore. Any suggestions on Will?

[toxic cobalt]

I’m not too familiar with HJasmine, does she buff crit?

[mellow linden]

Oh, whoops, you’re right. My bad

[mellow linden]

Iirc she does when she uses Potion/SE Up/Trainer Move

[royal walrus]

I used her for Se Up. She has a trainer move to increase Def/Sp.Def, but mine does not do crit

Whoa. She does! Look at that. You're right. Whenever she ueses a trainer move

[toxic cobalt]

Well she should be able to get MR to +3 then right?

That team should work given you can debuff and potion

[royal walrus]

Yes absolutely

Okay cool, I'll play around with trying to give my Karen team some more juice. Thanks for the help!

[toxic cobalt]

If other plans don't work you can poison anyone to death round 4

[royal walrus]

Can you poison for 2k points?

[mellow linden]

Poison stall? Absolutely doable for 2k, there’s even parameters specifically for that in the pins

Depending on the stage it can be RNG-heavy, but for Johto CS it shouldn’t be very problematic

[royal walrus]

Okay, I'll probably try that with Karen then because that I think is my hardest team. I see the suggestions in the pin, thank you

[toxic cobalt]

I haven't seen an rng that overcomes a poison stall field parameter

[mellow linden]

My Poison stall of Bug weak Lucian way back at the 1st run of Sinnoh CS is proof enough for me

Multiple hours spent before finally getting the stars to align

[molten sorrel]

I need one of each of these pieces for the champ stadium

can anyone help with team building

i can show my 5* supports or strikers

[void wyvern]

You can slot SS Brendan into any special attacker team

[swift swan]

Hop can be the tank to a physical stage or to support any physical striker

[molten sorrel]

ooh ok

[swift swan]

for fighting, either Bea as the main damage dealer or Brawly for potion slave

[molten sorrel]

should I make them all 140 before battling?

most of my 5 stars are 140

[void wyvern]

SS brendan, Giovanni, and Brawly can cheese Bruno.

[swift swan]

same with Electric. either Hau as the main damage dealer or MC Pikachu as a potion slave

[molten sorrel]

ah alright

[swift swan]

120 is fine

[molten sorrel]

they should be targeted last right?

[swift swan]

Poison would be the tricky one. I suppose Plumeria can just be a filler unit to an OP team

[swift swan]

the main damage dealer should be targeted last, yes

[molten sorrel]

ah

[swift swan]

or, Lucy/Janine for a stall team

[molten sorrel]

oh

how do stall teams work?

[void wyvern]

If poison is tricky slot it into the Bruno team as you only need SS Brendan and Gio to sweep it

[swift swan]

a unit inflicts poison and/or trap to all 3 opponents. then you debuff the offenses of the enemies to oblivion (attack, special attack, also speed if you can afford it). Venom Drench users like Janine & Ariados is especially good at this. Then you just have a tank that keeps healing itself to outlive the enemy. just watch them die a slow, painful death

[molten sorrel]

ah ic

[void wyvern]

You can still use Maylene as a crit buffer for a single high damage striker and hop makes for a Great Wall.

and Hau still clears electric weak
