classic gio/sycamore/lillie can work

latent eagle
#

Ye

swift swan
#

marshal is easy enough that I can clear with Sycamore and Lisia moonblast DPS paired with a crit buffer, so yeah Lillie will have an easier time since she has good nuke

latent eagle
swift swan
#

be careful with grimsley round 1 and 4, the rest are fine

keen jasper
swift swan
#

sure, but bite becomes 60% flinch which is annoying

frosty axle
#

interesting cause my F2P did round 1 Grimsley fine

#

you flinch his bite before he flinches you

keen silo
#

Only need to do all 18 types once, to permanently unlock master mode for each region

onyx ice
#

Trying to make use of Perrserker's power reserves 2

old orchid
#

Would be funnier with zone

dark osprey
#

Nice. Solgaleo power reserves is kinda nice too. Probably slightly weaker than this I guess

onyx ice
#

Solgaleo has higher attack, but steel beam has higher BP than sunsteel strike

#

However solgaleo has PR5 while Perrserker only PR2

#

However i think Perrserker 5/5 hits harder than Raihan 1/5

#

But raihan has his own Seun and accuracy fix at 1/5

#

Considering my Perrserker is 4★ at 5★ it would have been even better

#

At least is 5/5 max affinity

#

SC Jasmine really makes power reserves usable

#

The only unit that will probably have some troubles with power reserves is lusamine

#

Her tm heals and gives evasion

#

Spamming lunge or bug buzz will trigger the regen

#

How many regens are needed to disable power reserves from 1 HP?

#

However even if i had p Marnie, i wouldn't have run her regardless, numbers would have been bigger but consistency would have dropped

proud axle
#

Regen is... 1/8th? Or was it 1/16th HP?

#

And Power Reserves activates at around 1/3rd?

old orchid
#

6.25% per regen tick and around 33%

proud axle
#

1/16th then. And if this is Master Mode, you might have the half healing condition on

#

With half healing on, I think regen might actually expire before it breaks your Power Reserves

#

Without half healing on, it'd take 5 turns to break it

onyx ice
proud axle
#

It doesn't?

#

...is that a bug?

onyx ice
#

Used to affect first aid and other healing passives, but now affects only items and trainer moves

proud axle
#

That makes skill/passive healing really strong!

#

Does it affect lifesteal?

onyx ice
#

Never affected lifesteal

proud axle
#

Wow.

#

Thank you

onyx ice
#

In the past affected passives like recuperation

zealous karma
#

But it did use to affect drain healing

onyx ice
#

I don't remember getting drain halved in the past

dark osprey
#

I'm also not sure if it used to affect draining

#

Now though first aid 4 seems really nice

#

200 pts extra if there's not many AOEs

frosty axle
#

the change helped me a lot in F2P as its extra points instead of hp buff

proud axle
#

Now I'm curious to see an older CSMM clear video to check whether regen was indeed affected

dark osprey
#

i think they did mention that regen was affected in the patch. not sure.

#

honestly shall read the update notification from last month or 2 months ago i guess

eternal escarp
#

idk why I’m surprised but this is broken

#

3k lmao

proud axle
#

700+ SpAtk after her TM, yeah

#

That's before adding in the buffs

keen jasper
#

And I want her to have all the move multipliers

#

Prove that she can deal over 330k with B Fiery Wrath

proud axle
#

Dark zone, Dark rebuff, and... do Master Skills work on B moves?

#

I feel like they probably do?

keen jasper
#

I want this to be proven

proud axle
#

Large numbers!

eternal escarp
keen jasper
#

6 stacks of SpMUN, dark zone, -2 dark rebuff, critical HP, SEUN

#

Too bad SS Cyrus can't do dark rebuff

proud axle
#

Does her HP have to be critical?

keen jasper
proud axle
#

Oh, I didn't spot Power Reserves 3 until now

#

That makes sense

keen jasper
#

This is my grid for her for max B Fiery Wrath damage

eternal escarp
#

Wait is Aggravation 2 applied to B Fiery Wrath’s effect

#

Wondering if it’s 80% for all targets because multiple don’t lower the odds

keen jasper
eternal escarp
#

Oh that makes sense

keen jasper
#

Otherwise it would've been Aggravation 1

proud axle
#

For Fiery Wrath and not... Fiery 🅱️ath

dark osprey
#

Wouldn't 2 SMUN up next be more damaging than 2 dark rebuffs?

#

CCalem with dark zone gives 2 PMUNs right?

keen jasper
proud axle
#

He can use his B move twice, it's okay

old orchid
proud axle
#

Once as water to give SMUN and once as dark for zone

dark osprey
#

Oh yeah. Can get that B fiery wrath in then

keen jasper
#

Nah, dark zone is better than 2 stacks of SpMUN

dark osprey
#

I think giga meant that we can get both with CCalem

#

Or CBede and SS Cyrus does seem simpler

#

Or CBede and CCalem together may be even more crazier

keen jasper
#

What about the dark rebuff?

dark osprey
#

Or SS Kris I guess

#

That's what. Would it be that great to get the rebuff?

#

Can stack more SMUNs

keen jasper
#

Cerena can debuff Sp. Def. and rebuff

dark osprey
#

Ah yeah. Was just going to say that

#

And some great damage too

keen jasper
#

Not even 10 stacks of SpMUN can compare to dark zone

dark osprey
#

Really?

keen jasper
#

Yeah

proud axle
#

...How much is each SpMUN worth again

dark osprey
#

40% right

proud axle
#

Like, I get that Dark Zone is better in general since you can use it more than once, and on syncs
But this is specifically to do Funny Bullshit With Marnie's B Move

#

So one hit is all it needs

dark osprey
#

Yeah. Not counting sync

keen jasper
#

6 stacks of SpMUN with dark zone: 333460, 337165, 340870, 344575, 348280, 351985, 355690, 359395, 363101, 366806, 370511

8 stacks of SpMUN without dark zone: 259789, 262676, 265562, 268449, 271335, 274222, 277108, 279995, 282882, 285768, 288655

dark osprey
#

I guess the 10 stacks was a bit of an exaggeration

proud axle
#

Oh, you mean going from 6 to 10 SpMUN does not beat Dark Zone

#

Since it's multiplicative

keen jasper
#

So fields will almost always beat out MUN stacks?

proud axle
#

Depends how many stacks you already have

#

Though I imagine if you're stacking them at all, you'll reach the point where fields win very early on

onyx ice
#

Anything that affects regular DPS moves affects b moves

#

Wondering it's really worth to candy Moltres to 3/5

onyx ice
#

The more the initial multipliers the more valuable zone is

#

For units that only have cs2 as multiplier is 1.2 * 1.5 = 1.8 while 2 stacks of pmun is 1.2 + 1.8 = 2 so for units that have only cs2 the stacks are betterz but the more things you add the better the zone becomes

onyx ice
#

However master passive still counts as additive passives

keen jasper
proud axle
#

In which 1.6+1.6+1.6 = 2.8

keen jasper
#

Ah ok

onyx ice
#

Technically is 1 + 0.2 + 0.8

#

Or simply (20 + 80)%

#

Zone is an 1.5x multiplier, critical strike 2 is a 20% damage bonus

wide adder
#

hey, im planning to do 2k presyncs for the most part if possible
could i have some help with forming the teams for the current ones? i havent played in quite a while

#

got plenty of sync orbs for people not gridded up

#

gearwise i have a maxed ghost set, thats basically it

old orchid
#

Hey why is your Giovanni 1/5 squint

wide adder
#

oh, i forgot to put him at 5 on the tracker

#

thanks

old orchid
proud axle
wide adder
#

yeah

#

since its unova i already got it unlocked

proud axle
#

Against Marshall: Sycamore + Lisia + a critbuffer work well. Defog his entry Evasion away (plus you can add Critical Shield to get another 150pts out of it), especially if you can get some phys def out of it. Hop, Aaron, or SSBlue stand out as ideal; Phoebe can work; don't use Piers because he's weak to Fighting

#

Marshall is also the only one who gave me any trouble this week.

Because I forgot about Piers' weakpoint and brought him as my critbuffer. ooooof.

wide adder
#

HilbertHmm huh. so sycamores like... the dps there.

#

or is lisia the dps

proud axle
#

Both. Double attacker teamcomp

#

Sycamore syncs first for the massive buffs and EX Support

#

There's nothing wrong with Lisia's SpAtk, and while Sycamore's SpAtk is kinda low, he has a massive innate multiplier for Fairy moves (Fairy Power 5)

#

If the enemy syncs, don't panic. Lisia will probably survive and you can grid her so she hits hard when she's at low HP

paper summit
#

so... why are you suggesting Lisia when this person has Palentine Serena? only due to defog?

proud axle
#

Because I have no idea how Palerena works. But I have a secondary plan anyway, now that I notice Aaron is 3/5

#

Grid Aaron for Precision Pals (so you counteract Marshall's entry eva that way), and use him with Sycamore and Anniversary Lillie

#

That has way better odds of presyncing

#

...You might even skip Sycamore and use Gloria, though maybe you want her to fight the Steel stage. I don't know a lot about Gloria.

#

Ah, wait, Sycamore needs to be there for speed. Never mind

rotund lagoon
proud axle
#

~~You can't make me! LilliePout ~~

void wyvern
#

Her 1/5 gets her damage from ramming speed and hunters instinct. Running a special attack/crit support and covering speed or speed down with someone else is how to build around her.

proud axle
#

Steel-weak Grimsley likes using debuffs... I kinda wanna build a team that includes Leaf/Eevee just because it would be funny to hit him with her Iron Tail while laughing at the debuffs with her Impervious.
It'd go something like Solgaleo, Leaf, and a critbuffer

wide adder
proud axle
#

What would Sabrina contribute? Sycamore already maxes the team's SpA and Speed

#

Just there for Dire Hit?

wide adder
#

+acc and dire hit

proud axle
#

Oh, okay. Need +2 acc per member to fully counteract Marshall's +2 Eva, though...

#

Sixth Sense only gives +1acc at a time I think

wide adder
#

hmmm

#

i could do normal lillie, but idk where id get the crit from then

void wyvern
#

You might just have to get lucky with accuracy.

wide adder
#

oh, spring burgh

#

spring burgh works right?

void wyvern
#

Yes he does.

proud axle
#

I think I'd still recommend Anniversary Lillie + Sycamore + Aaron with acc from grid

void wyvern
#

You’ll struggle to get sp Atk consistently with him.

proud axle
#

Aaron doesn't even need to trigger MPR if Sycamore is gridded for Team Sharp Entry 1

wide adder
#

well ig first ill draft the other teams and come back to that one after ive got a clue what im using for the others

proud axle
#

Sure

#

Moving on to Grimsley then. Following up on that smartassed idea I had just now: Solgaleo + Leaf(Eevee) + Piers

wide adder
#

lets see... steel... ive got kimono grimsley, solgaleo, hop, and gloria for the most part.

proud axle
#

Ugh, looking up Gloria's skillset

wide adder
#

144 bp behemoth blade, gives self +4 atk

#

-1turn sync cd from tm

proud axle
#

Maybe Solgaleo, SSBlue, Gloria.

#

Unless you want to use Ingo instead of SSBlue. That might actually be even better

#

(I like double-attacker teambuilds.)

wide adder
#

might need to offtype fighting unless wally or whatever got buffed or bea is good enough cause uh, historically had a bad time with fighting types

#

uhhh, ig lets figure out dark next

#

sydney, masked royal, halloween hilbert, karendoom

#

that looks like my dark dps options

proud axle
#

Dark Caitlyn decreases your team's SpAtk by 2 ranks at the start of the fight. So we either need to overcompensate, or focus on phys attacks

#

Karen's grid update made her kinda cool, but she's Special, so that's an issue here

wide adder
#

well good thing the only sp attacker for dark ive got is karen, so ive got plenty of physical options

proud axle
#

Masked Royal is always fun to use, and I hear good things about Sidney's sync-nuke capability if he's 3/5. And yours is 5/5

#

The issue here is that Masked Royal also has a really powerful sync nuke, so... hm.

wide adder
#

i could use nessa over one of them

#

for jaw lock

proud axle
#

That's not a bad idea.

wide adder
#

think i wanna try sydney cause i havent really used him before

proud axle
#

Cools, then. So we want a critbuffer again, for Masked Royal

#

Maybe Hop, so MR doesn't need to worry about Atk either

#

He can start (brutal) swinging a turn or two sooner

#

Hop doesn't have EX, though...

wide adder
#

sydney fullcrits himself, both him and nessa need atk tho, hmmm

proud axle
#

Maybe it'll be fine

wide adder
#

yeah, if im not using hop anywhere else he can prob do a fine job here

proud axle
#

Moving on to... Shauntal, I think

wide adder
#

ground i assume is ss serena and whatever else

proud axle
#

And Courtney and someone to give a lot of Speed

#

Skyla, maybe

wide adder
#

courtney has ground wish, thats interesting

proud axle
#

Courtney's personal DPS always disappoints me, but Ground Wish on SSSerena more than makes up for it

#

That leaves the champion

wide adder
#

lets see... if ingos free...
is offtyping still viable?

#

i could just throw my rock squad at it

proud axle
#

It should be. You also have Anniversary May so you could do a Psychic team

wide adder
#

or is it better i try out bea and wally first before resorting to offtype

proud axle
#

Maybe we can do that as a kind of training.
Wally did get a grid update recently, and it makes him way more streamlined

mellow linden
#

Bea + appropriate Supports should murder the stage

proud axle
#

Your Bea is... move level 2, huh... Let's see what's on her grid

#

Just two Sync+25 nodes of note.

#

All her meaningful stuff is in 3/5...

#

I wonder if post-update Wally might actually be better? But then, his sync is Mega-taxed

#

You could also put Bea and Korrina together, with Hilbert

#

And probably obliterate it

mellow linden
#

Eh, Meteor Assault is nuts and she doesn’t need anything unusual for support

#

I don’t even think a 2nd damage-dealer is needed

proud axle
#

I don't seem to ever get good results from Bea when I try her

wide adder
#

if im just trying out bea, i can do like, bea, redlax, and an atk buffer?

mellow linden
#

Sure

proud axle
#

If the atk buffer has speed too.

#

But Hilbert fits the bill again

mellow linden
#

With Supereffective Up there should be zero issues

proud axle
#

or maybe Sonia

#

SE Up Next is amazing yeah

mellow linden
#

Since she’s 2/5 any form of gauge support works, as well

#

Since her only Speed-based modifier is 3/5

wide adder
#

ok so now i just need to figure out which order im fighting them in

#

these parameters dont sound like theyd do much other than the sync buffs one

mellow linden
#

That’s pretty much accurate

proud axle
#

Rounds 1 and 4 work in Grimsley's favor
Round 4 works in your favor for Masked Royal
I'm not sure any status conditions are a thing in your OR the enemy's teams here

#

Like, Shauntal's sidekicks use Sludge Wave after she goes down, but that's a negligible poison chance

wide adder
#

think im just going to throw my ground team for round 1, the additional effects thing doesnt seem important to me

proud axle
#

Does it increase the chance of A.Lillie gaining SE Up Next?

wide adder
#

...huh... dunno.

proud axle
#

It would be hilarious if it did

#

Just having it permanently on

wide adder
#

before i use my fairy team id better redo sycamores grid

#

since he got expanded

proud axle
#

Yeah, his new nodes are pretty damn good

mellow linden
#

Round 1 effect does not affect passives

wide adder
#

the fact he can actually give a starting crit chance is nutty to me.

proud axle
wide adder
#

does this look right? found this as "full moonblast" on the list

mellow linden
#

Yeah, that should be fine if you’re planning to spam Moonblast

wide adder
#

ssburghs going to be tanking for the team

#

spring*

teal siren
#

2k team for Shauntal approved?

proud axle
#

It will probably work, but it still perpetually amuses me that it's a team with no Support

#

They may not need one, but still...

mellow linden
wide adder
#

fairys done

#

lunalillie + syca + spring burgh used

#

no idea if status conditions effects confusion

proud axle
#

It isn't a Condition but the round modifier does affect it I think

mellow linden
#

It would affect the duration and chance that the opponent attacks themselves since the effect specifies “status conditions and other conditions”

#

But it does not affect the chance of getting confusion via secondary effect, since that’s what the round 1 parameter does

proud axle
#

Fortunately I think Sidney has a 100% chance to inflict it

mellow linden
#

Yeah

wide adder
#

well i got no other statuses so ill throw sydney here

proud axle
#

Wonder what their self-oof chance becomes, with Sidney having Stop Hitting Yourself 5

#

Combined with that round modifier, that is

wide adder
#

12k nuke, not bad

#

especially considering hes taxed

#

i already know ssserena doesnt need help, so ill throw steel in sync city

#

god steel cut it close

#

wasnt enough gauge to go around both dps with my ssb lol

proud axle
#

Oof

wide adder
#

sserena under ground wish is funny as shit

proud axle
#

"SSB wasn't enough gauge" is a rare statement in this game CyrusSweat

wide adder
#

yeah, i didnt hit a mpr

#

so solga was hurting for gauge

#

bruhhh houndoom lived on 1 hp

#

there we go, 10k

#

thx, and its nice seeing you still here gigafreak ClayThumbsUp

teal siren
#

First time finishing a 10k run without using Ash or SST Red

proud axle
#

I probably could just make five offtype bruteforce teams but I feel like I'd gradually get rusty if I did that

mellow linden
#

On-type is more fun since you get to use more pairs anyways

supple blade
#

So

#

How does champion stadium work?

proud axle
#

Five fights where you have to use teams that don't overlap

mellow linden
#

There’s 5 battles, and each battle needs to have a different team, with no overlap between teams

proud axle
#

Normal mode is a low-stakes practice version for you to make all the mistakes you want, and learn from them

mellow linden
#

Each round also has a unique parameter that affects both you and the opponent

proud axle
#

The round parameters can influence your decision on what order to fight the Elite Four

#

Like, a parameter that amplifies physical attacks... might be risky for an opponent like Bruno, who uses primarily physicals but has special-heavy weakpoints

tired sleet
proud axle
#

No.

#

That is Hard mode.

#

I'm talking about the Normal Kanto challenge

tired sleet
#

Oh yeah, i forgot that normal mode existed

#

It’s not really practice if it recommends lvl 45 units tho MinaSmile

proud axle
#

It's practice for "Don't use your best pairs in one team or you can't use them in other teams"

tired sleet
#

But in normal mode you can use the same team 5 times

supple blade
#

You unlock master mode by using 18 types in 1 champion stadium, right?

tired sleet
#

In Hard mode, yes

#

But it takes 2 weeks to do so, since you can only use 15 pairs in one week (3 pairs times 5 teams)

#

But on the 2nd week you can reset and do MM

supple blade
#

So in total, it takes 16 weeks to unlock all master modes

proud axle
#

The stadium region rotates monthly; the challenges within the region change weekly

#

It takes seven months for seven leagues.

supple blade
#

Oh

#

Damn

#

well

tired sleet
#

I wouldn’t really worry about not having kalos csmm unlocked rn

supple blade
#

I'm gonna try and do the stadium now

#

See ya

proud axle
#

Galar doesn't have an Elite Four so it might not end up getting a Champion Stadium; Paldea doesn't have any content in PMEX yet

swift swan
#

they'll find a way to milk Galar for CS

zealous karma
#

The first CS tj have 8 diff weeks

trail smelt
#

Lol yeah

onyx ice
sand karma
dark osprey
#

CS Hard Level 2?

woeful wave
#

I want to ask some opinion on clearing hard mode for 18/18.

old orchid
#

The Grimsley team will def face gauge issue

proud axle
#

That's a lot of Marnie in the teams afterward. I'm guessing you're focusing on just the first week for now, then

woeful wave
#

Ya

proud axle
woeful wave
#

O the other teams are general use on other content. Some of them were for legendary fight which I clear all

proud axle
#

And the team has at least +2 Speed each

#

Solga gets Sync Freebie and then B Freezing Glare freebie (Freebie-ing Glare?)

#

(Free🅱️ing Glare!)

#

If you do things in the right order, it should go really smooth

#

Shauntal team is a little uncomfortable but might still work

woeful wave
#

I should still self buff solgaleo right

proud axle
#

Yeah, once. The second buff is probably overkill

#

Though you will need to wait until Turn 3 before Bede can reasonably fit his own buff in

#

Confusion, B FGlare, TM

#

Solga will probably want to TM, Metal Claw, and then use the freebie on Sunsteel

#

Cait team... I'm not sure Rosa has enough gauge support to keep Marnie shooting

#

Ice, grass, self speed...
Candice has X Speed. Maybe that instead of Melony, and Marnie's own self speed, will be enough supplemented by Rosa HilbertHmm

woeful wave
#

I put Rosa it also because she was EX as well. Hahaha

swift swan
proud axle
#

CBede gives a teamwide freebie with every sync cycle. It's nuts

#

And teanwide +2 Speed on entry

dark osprey
#

it will be tricky if their Bede is 1/5 i guess but with his innate head start can afford queuing only 2 moves on the first sync cycle

woeful wave
#

I could Q with koga TM and confusion if needed.

#

Think possible. Gonna need to try when I done setup

#

Well May is to fill water. Can switch

dark osprey
#

oh is this for the type medal?

#

then all good i guess

woeful wave
#

I could also switch pheobe for ghost type for acerola with Cynthia

woeful wave
#

So I tried to fill 15/18 this week. Then next week will fill in the last 3 to unlock master

versed meteor
#

Lol i just set up fairy zone with wally then cleared it with defog using lisia so i could remove opponents crit defence

woeful wave
#

Iris one not sure that one abit weird

proud axle
#

I think +2 entry speed is enough to generate one extra gauge between the first two rounds

#

This is if Bede is gridless. In fact they can get this far with the whole team gridless

woeful wave
#

What about Marshal and Iris

proud axle
#

I'd use that Marshall team for 2k.

#

Iris team is kinda weird but might work for Hard

dark osprey
#

Wait nvm. It's slightly complicated

#

But manageable for sure

proud axle
#

Like, it can be improved by moving Sunsteel Strike to after Triumphant Tenacity

#

But eh

#

Every sync cycle, Bede can use B Freezing Glare to make the third round 0-gauge

#

And Solga can grid for Sync Freebie on top

dark osprey
#

Yeah. Like if b move is used as the last turn in your team, the free move of the teammates can be used the next to next turn

proud axle
#

You don't want the B move used last because of Solga's sync freebie

#

You use it on the second round so that the third round is free

woeful wave
#

I could switch red for another buffer XD OR red DPS change willy for C Hop

proud axle
#

Oh, if you have Neo Hop, may as well use him there

dark osprey
#

Especially if EX Bede

proud axle
#

You could swap Red for Marley and still get the fire medal-- but also give more speed

woeful wave
#

Ok.

#

Just get this?

#

Should be cheap XD

proud axle
#

Also Sharp Entry 1 if you can afford it

#

That way, Solga will have max crit after Bede uses TM

#

There's more stuff in the grid that might be useful, but let's not splurge more than that for now

woeful wave
#

They are 1 of my fav units to use. Was the carry in the acc

#

Shuantal dont I need to change the weather?

proud axle
#

No

#

She only uses Sunny Day after her sync

#

Unova is easy

#

Marshall's the only one who gave me trouble and that's only because I forgot that Piers is weak against him

lost gulch
#

another madlad

woeful wave
#

the special parameter do I need to be careful except R4 on Grimsley is no-no

#

R1: Grimsley
R2: Caitlin
R3: Marshal
R4: Shauntal

swift swan
swift swan
#

otherwise it's fine

woeful wave
#

was thinking the chance of freezing him XD

swift swan
#

good luck with that

#

freeze is unreliable in this game

woeful wave
#

hahaha, but this is hard, so think it should be fine

proud axle
#

And then we never heard from them again

swift swan
woeful wave
#

XD

proud axle
#

Sometimes, it's like we can almost still hear their voice...

woeful wave
#

Wait, I can explain. It time for bed

proud axle
#

May they rest in peace

keen jasper
woeful wave
swift swan
#

I mean there are more moves with high flinch chance than freeze

proud axle
#

The highest freeze chance in the game is, what, 30%? Maybe 40%?

woeful wave
#

See it did freeze

#

Marine team is fast enough to regain energy

#

Done. @proud axle ty for the help

#

O, I have enough to make 3 EX now. I think

nocturne pawn
proud axle
#

Meanwhile Flinch, which commonly reaches 60% on a lot of pairs: WillChill

nocturne pawn
#

well hleon is aoe

#

since cold snap chance isn’t affected by aoe

proud axle
#

That's actually almost good, then

nocturne pawn
#

but flinch regularly reaches 60% and ss lyra has staggering 9

ss lyra has has hassling hit 9 for 100% flinch

oh hassling hit

whats the difference

oh it’s all 3

it also gives gurateed trap and confustion but meh

keen jasper
#

While Cerena has 30% chance to flinch everyone

#

Does Staggering have AoE penatly?

nocturne pawn
#

it shouldnt

#

the wording is when the move is successful

#

so id be under the impression its not penalized if its on an aoe

keen jasper
#

Ah, so it really is 30% AoE flinch chance on Brutal Swing

Still better than freeze that generally has 30%

Marshall Round 1 ?

paper summit

whatever order you do depends on your teams

there isn't any set order ever

For ex I wouldn’t want to face someone who can poison on a round status conditions hurt more. That kind of order

I think that with 3/5 6ex Marnie, flint won't be able to land more than one hit

What a fun and easy 2k offtype lol

zealous karma

SSleaf PB should give her an additional sync buff when she syncs

I think my strongest offtype team is
C Marnie (3/5 6ex) C hop (1/5 6ex) Gloria (3/5)

My strongest off type team is ssbrendan Calem bianca

My actual easiest off type is prolly Victor PSerena SSLyra

I admit you really know how to do some funny things with Calem

Beat rock week flint who has wise entry so he’s very swag

onyx ice
#

Never thought of calem would have been part of anyone's best team

I mainly use him for gauntlet

For some la is pretty good

I guess the last time i used regular calem for master mode the cap was still 1.5k

we need those free story 5* copies back

Only using Calem for 1.5K is funny to me I like using him for 3K a lot lel

5* power ups pog

3/5 would be usable, but 1/5 is trash

I 6ex'd even Drake

proud axle
#

Drake can at least access his full grid easily

#

I'm not burning 5star candies on Cheren

#

Though with how bad he is, it does add a kind of comedic weight to that scene where he points out that he, as a (weak) sync pair, can easily steamroll a (powerful) non-synced trainer like Lear

Looking for others

proud axle
#

A very long time ago

#

There used to be (Insert element type here) Training Events

#

Back before stamina was added to the game

#

They were events that gave 10x EXP for party members matching the listed type

#

And the last four of them included dupe copies of story pairs in the shop exchange

#

This was a big deal for Rosa, Acerola, and Calem, who had just gotten their grids

#

This would have been a big deal for Flint and Flannery... but those two aren't 5star, so they became easy to just candy up later

#

So if you see someone with Rosa or Acerola or Calem at 2/5... it's probably because of those very old events rather than from candy expenditures

#

The boss fights from these events, have been recycled as the boss fights for Gear Events and I think possibly also sometimes Masters Day Co-op

Should at least give rosa one.

Solgaleo is already filling steel, so try and use whatever type you haven't included there for a speed/gauge support if you can

I’m crazy but not to this extent!

you know, since you hate your faves being meta

zealous karma
#

True

#

Considering the units they used I’m not reaching 20K anytime soon and I’m okay with that LazyRachel

dark osprey
#

that madlad didn't have all 5/5 units or anything though. just probably the better master fairs and pokefairs

#

no flinch hacks also

zealous karma
#

Non Ex PDawn either

#

Likely a player who managers their resources very well

dark osprey
#

yeah. was kinda cool that way

zealous karma
#

I’m impressed most of those units even survived the syncs lel

dark osprey
#

i guess the reduced sync countdown does help a bit so that Power on Hit doesn't go overboard or something

grand trout

Which supports eould pair well with Dragonite for next week?

keen jasper
#

What move level is he?

zealous karma
#

CBede

grand trout
#

1 💀

zealous karma

And if he’s 5/5 can use literally anyone as a third

grand trout
grand trout
#

I have creninja

#

If that helps

zealous karma
#

E

#

As he’s 1/5 I’d just use a support like Sabrina

grand trout
#

He's bit of an oddball, his dps is special but physical nuke

paper summit
#

Calem only buffs +2 special attack

zealous karma
#

His sync is the opposite of worth using at 1/5

paper summit
#

but you need 2 supports for Lance at 1/5 regardless

grand trout
#

Imma use him anyway for the funsies

#

Unova is piss easy anyway

keen jasper
#

You have SS Brendan?

grand trout
#

Yes

#

But he only adds +1 to crit right

keen jasper
paper summit
#

he wants +6 special attack, +3 crit and gauge support, and accuracy if you don't want Hyper Beam to potentially miss

keen jasper
#

With Team Sharp Entry

keen jasper
#

And reapplying it on mega

zealous karma
#

She doesn’t provide real crit

paper summit
#

Lillie doesn't buff crit

crit next isn't the same

grand trout

I can do real crit for another support then

#

Lillie is more for the acc

keen jasper
grand trout
#

3, i think?

#

Lemme check

#

Nvm just 2

keen jasper
#

I guess you could fish for TM MPR?

grand trout
#

But his tm provides +1 crit

#

Right

keen jasper
#

Yes

grand trout
#

So i have to be lucky for it to proc twice

keen jasper
#

And also Free Move Next if it consume 3 gauges

grand trout
#

Why isn't there a hilbert for special lol

keen jasper
#

CGio kinda?

grand trout
#

Classic gio?

#

He doesn't max atk/sp atk tho

keen jasper
#

Yeah

grand trout
#

Hilbert can max atk and crit in two moves

keen jasper
#

Does Free Move Next apply to TMs that consume gauges?

paper summit
#

yes

keen jasper
#

Ah, so you can repeatedly use SS Brendan's TM over and over again if it MP refreshes and your team can potentially(?) have infinite free moves

swift swan

#

okay this is crazy

woeful wave
#

So they just keep selecting more buff for the oppo and beat the shit out of them?

it's just your regular CS but harder, and of course with a different approach since presync isn't necessarily possible with any team at that difficulty

You can do it as much as you want each week if you have unlock the MM for that region.

I wish we could get the rewards twice a week

grand trout

5 * powerups are dripped s l o w l y

A limitation that you can't use a mon you used this week's clear would be not too limiting i think

dark osprey
#

yeah. that does seem a little more challenging

maybe if it were different type weaknesses it may be still ok

Is this a decent fairy team?

Not really

hidden ore
#

Trying to do ontype for it
I have Diantha too but she special

#

Need to adjust right params without “no stat reduction”

#

I can offtype it, but I’ve powered up Mina and want to test her

old orchid
#

If you want to test her, first replace Sycamore with a crit support at least

#

Someone like Hilbert, Sonia, Aaron...

#

Aaron is very nice if you have him at 3/5 which he can buff accuracy as well

hidden ore
#

My Aaron is 4/5 ex
So Mina & Aaron + Lillie/Sonia/Hilbert?

old orchid
#

Mina + Aaron + someone can debuff attack/do physical fairy damage

dark osprey
#

can keep sycamore imo

#

mina + aaron + sycamore

old orchid
#

Aaron can max atk and crit for Mina

old orchid
dark osprey
#

especially since sycamore is EX

hidden ore
#

I have both ex’ed

dark osprey
#

oh nice. sycamore sync with adrenaline & the buffs would be better probably

#

there's another budget team that would be Lisia, Sycamore and any crit buffer like surgechu but the aaron mina team seems much better

proud axle
#

If Aaron is 3/5, you can grid for accuracy buffs to counteract Marshall's evasion nonsense

onyx ice

Me that used Lillie's Clefairy as the Main DPS

1/5 Lillie hours

bright furnace
#

You still have 1/5 Lillie? MonkaScottie

onyx ice
#

Really sad that 1/5 Summer Lyra is atrocious, i really like the outfit and Jigglypuff, but i don't want to waste candies for an unit that's mediocre at best at 3/5

#

It's kinda like Jigglypuff in the main series, i try to make good use of it but it's just bad

#

At least her sync can kinda work in some legendary arenas

onyx ice
#

Maybe Gloria + Aaron + Summer Lyra can kinda work for fairy weak, if it doesn't buff evasion

#

Wondering if i should give her head start 1 to at least give her a niche

old orchid
#

Aaron can buff accuracy hello???

onyx ice
#

Yes but without mpr only +2 and 1/5 Jigglypuff needs +3 to have sure hits against marshall

old orchid
#

You need MPR anway

#

Since Gloria doesnt have max crit

onyx ice
#

I don't need mpr

old orchid
onyx ice
#

I have her at 3/5

#

Is lyra that's 1/5

swift swan
#

Rare 3/5 gloria owner. Mine's been 1/5 since last year

old orchid
#

With MPR you save turns of clicking Lyra's TM twice and Dire Hit+

onyx ice
#

At least 3/5 Gloria has headstart so isn't a completely wasted 3/5

#

At least i can use her in my cmarnie + cbede team

#

Gave Bede headstart 1 and Marnie is 3/5 6ex so i can sync turn 2

swift swan
onyx ice
#

Thought 6 ex on Marnie was kinda overkill, since her b fiery wrath has no AOE penality

#

But with -6 sync she can deny the side turn 2

They rarely do

I think they updated it only twice

swift swan
#

They seem to update it every full anni

proud axle
#

Yeah, I'm sitting on my tickets until late august for that

#

There've been seven new genpools since last update, I think

dark osprey
#

Oh. On that note, there was some kind of limit you can use or something right?

swift swan
#

Not sure about that...

proud axle
#

...Huh?

#

I could go through all of mine at once if I wanted. I just wouldn't get anything useful out of it

#

I've somehow reached the point where iChampSpirit limit me again instead of iGoldPowerUp, I think?

swift swan
#

..how

#

I don't think i'll ever reach that point

dark osprey
#

Don't remember but Absol-utely had mentioned something about the limit before last anniversary. Shall check

bright furnace
swift swan
#

Same, 0/5 courtney

proud axle
# swift swan ..how

Let's see, was it 50 iChampSpirit to EX?
I have 1595 (let's round up to 1600) in my bag, so that's 32 EXes
I have 346 iGoldPowerUp and 1810 iPowerUpTicket. If I use a 5/15 ratio, that gets me 18 EXes costing all my iPowerUpTicket and 270 iGoldPowerUp , and then I can afford another three EXes after (21 EXes total)
And then I have 1711 iScoutTicket, 63 Kanto, 462 Johto, 307 Hoenn, 139 Sinnoh, 441 Unova, 397 Kalos, 169 Alola, 174 Galar and my unspent Kantrio ticket from Victory Road.
57+2+15+10+4+14+13+5+5 = 125 iGoldPowerUp, or another six EXes worth
27 EX worth of iGoldPowerUp and 32 EX worth of iChampSpirit... if I don't do any more pulls (I have 64k after the triple master fair). So I haven't reached the point yet but I'm getting very close

#

Lodge has added quite a bit to iGoldPowerUp income.

#

(I sure hope I'm using all the correct emoji. I can't see what I'm doing.)

huh weird, it looks good on my end

#

Ya, the post has the right emotes to me

trail smelt
#

I don’t know how y’all ran out of champion spirits haha

#

I’ve got 2,640 and it keeps increasing

paper summit
#

whaling

#

my main guess is, the big influx of PUs that Lodge introduced made people go a bit too wild

lunar meadow
paper summit
#

I have a surplus of PUs but I still refuse to give 20 to a single pair without using any CS tickets

#

I'm sure most people spirit broke did exactly that, a lot

swift swan
#

Except right now I'm not in a surplus of iGoldPowerUp

paper summit
#

I even have a bunch of pairs at 15/20 queued for the tickets lol

keen jasper
#

I have so much Champion Spirits that I could EX more units if I have the PU ticks

onyx ice
#

Back then you couldn't randomly get tickets however

#

Now you can randomly get tickets from expeditions

#

Or from lodge guests gifts

onyx ice
proud axle
#

I am neither.

onyx ice
#

Not even that sure about fresh players since they won't have 5★ power up either

paper summit
#

new players have access to Lodge, and they are likely to go too far with PUs on each character

#

because they don't know any better

#

it's common they just ignore what the CS tickets even are for at first

#

a long time player lacking spirits is more a matter of poorly managed resources or too much whaling CynthiaSmug

proud axle
#

I'm not real sure how I can manage my resources better

#

It's weird, my iChampSpirit vs iGoldPowerUp ratio used to lean heavily towards iChampSpirit, but it's catching up fast

paper summit
#

could be an unusual high streak of 5* dupes, point is, anyone going for more than one EX per week too often will 100% fall short on spirits eventually

proud axle
#

This was happening even in the past few months, where I was doing no pulls at all.

#

I think the last time I did pulls was the third anniversary. And it wasn't many, as I got two of the three early.
Before that, I think I hadn't pulled since the Johto Master Pair trio

#

My iGoldPowerUp were still catching up to my iChampSpirit

#

I think it's because the Lodge landed in between.

#

Maybe I should monitor it for the next few months and see if my iGoldPowerUp continue to accumulate fast enough to threaten to overtake my iChampSpirit

grand steppe
# keen jasper I want this to be proven

In Pomatools, enter accurate defense values (def & sp.def) to get more accurate outputs.

78 [Strength+0]
99 [Stregnth+7]
108 [Strength+7/Def+1]
114 [Strength+12]

Also make sure the target has Enlightenment 5 as a Skill set.

Maybe that recently-announced event format, modeled after Champion Stadium, will help scratch that itch

marley the girl with the arcanine?

She’s quite good

bc of the spd all?

everyone else i have left folds fast to that hydregion

iBronzePowerUp are dirt-cheap right now from the Kanto villain events

Can't immagine having to on type ice with 5 different teams

To keep up with iChampSpirit we will need 14 iGoldPowerUp each week

#

I don't think the average non WailordWhale can get more than an average of 14 iGoldPowerUp a week

proud axle
#

So that's already 10

#

We get another two or more iGoldPowerUp from each event, and there are... maybe three or four in a normal month?

onyx ice
proud axle
#

And then there are the iPowerUpTicket from the 10k itself

#

Is Gauntlet monthly or is that more of a "sometimes" thing

#

If it's regular, maybe we should include the rewards from reaching the winstreak for the last main milestone reward

onyx ice
#

We need 100 iSilverPowerUp to get the 20 iGoldPowerUp from the shop, so isn't a thing i would account for

proud axle

I stopped checking my Rare Cache contents-- just clicking to claim them and dismissing the window without looking at what I got-- but maybe the iSilverPowerUp income is surprisingly high

proud axle

5 per, yeah

keen silo

onyx ice
#

Personally i'm not that high in iSilverPowerUp and i NEVER exchanged them

proud axle

Well, more like we need 80 iSilverPowerUp per month since we get 20 iSilverPowerUp from cheapo iBronzePowerUp trades

I have some particularly important units promoted to 5star

It feels like more because we don't get as many iSilverPowerUp as iBronzePowerUp

#

But we seem to have more income lately

dark osprey
#

Let's all storm DeNA with this suggestion

proud axle
#

Maybe Ketsuban has had less iSilverPowerUp profit than me because they've been immediately using them on Lodge Pairs? HilbertHmm

#

Some of those are pretty good...

#

And quite a few are Supports no less

A lot of 3stars are actually really damn good

Is this CS easier than sinnoh?

dark osprey
proud axle
#

Sinnoh's one of the hardest in the game

#

This one's maybe the "hardest" among the easy ones

#

Oh, wait, Alola might be in that slot?

sacred mountain
#

I miss when it was only Kanto and johto

proud axle
#

Those're jokes with today's level of powercreep

dark osprey
#

Yeah. Even some Johto ones like that crit shield fire weak kogados, wise entry kogamoth were slightly difficult a while ago

keen silo
#

Sinnoh's the hardest for me

proud axle
#

...Is Wise Entry even ever a problem without Smart Cookie and Brute Wits?

#

Wait, what Wise Entry?

keen silo

Bro's got the 💰 💰

And I suspect another 20+ would've been able to do their work just fine at 4star

keen silo
#

The 4 stars I actually do use, I upgraded them to 5* 0/20

#

At least

I just exchanged 100 4 star power ups after you told me the exchange rate 💀

Haha. We learned the hard way

Thanks @dark osprey & @old orchid !
Mina test is successful

#

Had to adjust different parameters than on document, because of the sides killing with aoe

#

Team was good and is
Can’t wait for Mina’s EX

Mina love, I'm glad to see it

Mina +‘sycamore is a free fairy clear it’s quite swag too

Ex mina with a nice light blue outfit BrendanWoah

Lol am i the only one unable to use Mina well

Do you debuff the opponent to -6 atk first

#

I never see what other people see in her

toxic cobalt
#

You just debuff and attack MonkaScottie

trail smelt
#

Because lack of fairy supports LMAO

#

SS Wally rerun when?

dark osprey
#

Sycamore is there with an EX too now

trail smelt
#

Only +1 Crit is sad but oh well I’ll take what I can get

dark osprey
#

The others are like Lillie and the Azumarill girl not like fairy supports matter. Sycamore does solid damage too along side mina and crit+attack bigger

hidden ore
#

Yup, Sycamore helps with sides so much

#

For Iris I’ve used Bea + new Hop combo
Not sure if I can call it broken

swift swan
#

Mina + Sycamore + Hop is completely f2p and can clear drasna fairy-weak

dark osprey
#

Yeah. That seems to be a good benchmark to measure them

#

Does 1/5 CMarnie 2k dark weak?

#

Not EX with Calem greninja 3/5

manic kiln
#

Yes CourtneyBruh

#

All these new sync pairs can clear 2k even the hardest region at 1/5

sinful garden
#

she can pretty much offtype almost every 2k csmm

marsh crater
#

Why cant just do mm when already beat hard mode with 15 types. Have to wait for 2 weeks with all content beat is so boring. At least can challenge myself in csmm

full mesa
#

In general the combination of Sycamore/Hop/"insert unit" can beat almost every stage.

mellow linden
#

But for Champion Stadium it’s almost always better to split Sycamore and Hop across 2 different teams

weak sleet
#

Does this work at 2k? This is round 3. I have this and steel left.

Diantha does work at 2k

I honestly have no clue, it's an old team I had lying around.

Technically we are still at hard lv1, but the medal is the 1★ one, so technically we could reach up to hard lv4 for the 4★ medal

Hmmm should I do Valerie or Mina this Fairy weak? thonkachu
(Either will be supported by zone)

dark osprey
#

Kali

#

Kali Draining Kiss DPS BarryPogChamp

dark osprey
#

Hehe. It's really sad

#

Valerie is fine I guess

rotund lagoon
#

Lol I’ll do Valerie, but I guess I’ll try Kali for a test team

dark osprey
#

Like Valerie plus EX sycamore will be nice

rotund lagoon
#

I’m doing SS Brendan, SS Wally and Valerie

dark osprey
#

Oh yeah forgot zone

zealous karma
#

Ssbrendan can out DPS Valerie on type without zone I think

dark osprey
#

Offtype probably

rotund lagoon
#

….I forgot to set zone WEEZing

dark osprey
#

With that team I guess Kali is definitely doable

#

Wally's sync does one shot the center or close to it

zealous karma
#

Wally’s first sync can one shot first sync off type lel

#

Is ALillie good for fairy weak or Sycamore better?

long thicket
#

I don't think many people use Sycamore for Fairy damage.

#

Horn leech plus boosting sync are his highlights, I'm pretty sure.

#

Anni Lillie is a striker, so her Fairy damage will be much better.

#

But no Fairy sync.

warped jungle
#

Okay

#

Can someone please help me out with the teams? I haven't done it yet. 🙏

long thicket
#

Mhm, I see?

warped jungle
#

Wait a minute, let me make a few makeshift teams

long thicket
#

Are you just starting up the game?

warped jungle
#

Nah

#

I have done CS before. But just once.

#

I can make normal teams, the problem is using all the types. That's what confuses me

#

Who do I use as a steel dps??

long thicket
#

Oh well depending on your roster, it could be a pain.

warped jungle
#

If none of them are good, I can try to off type usi g SSRed

long thicket
#

But you have to complete the emblem by winning a fight from the month with an unit for every sync type.

warped jungle
#

Yeah that's what makes my brain hurt. I can't make teams like that PrycePain

long thicket
#

Supports can afford to be off-type without much consequences.

warped jungle
long thicket
#

You'll need to upgrade, but I don't have experience with Colress yet.

#

Solgaleo could be decent.
I don't really like using any Grimsley, but that's me.

warped jungle
#

Maybe use something off type??

sinful garden
#

zerena, cmarnie or ssethan could offtype easily if you struggle

long thicket
#

Depends on the types you need to complete, then.
