Champion Stadium

[grand trout]

you're on your own NOW

sure good luck

[lime raven]

Nawww

I meant

bad as in hot

lmao

Bro

Why dont i have any sp atk buffets

[swift swan]

let's not say weird things

[swift swan]

sycamore is your sp atk buffer

[keen jasper]

That looks fine

[lime raven]

😭😭😭

[keen jasper]

And yes, Sycamore is your Sp. Atk. buffer via his sync move

[lime raven]

He just got destroyed though

what am i supposed to do

[keen jasper]

Pray he doesn't do Fire Blast at all

[lime raven]

okay

😞

[dark osprey]

ah. that's why i mentioned Cheryl. she's quite overlooked usually but buffs both defenses and heals with the same move

can also grid sycamore for Moonblast OAR instead of the horn leech master healer

[lime raven]

Whats oar?

[dark osprey]

on a roll

[keen jasper]

On a Roll

[dark osprey]

so that he can reduce Flint's special attack

[keen jasper]

Increases the chance of debuffing when using an attack move

[lime raven]

I wish sc lillie was bulkier

Wait a minute

I just got an idea

[grand trout]

what is killing you, exactly?

fire blast?

[lime raven]

well he does use it every time

[grand trout]

reset until he uses the tm instead

lmao

[lime raven]

he has used it

[grand trout]

or you can do turn denial

via sleep, or flinch

[lime raven]

But then he just uses fire blast right after

[grand trout]

try elio

[dark osprey]

Flint even brings out condition shield

[lime raven]

Oh man

[grand trout]

you have him, right? he can buff sp def

[lime raven]

theres another one that

[grand trout]

and sleep

[dark osprey]

so sleep is not that great

[lime raven]

I dont have any investments in

I have cyrus

maybe i can put them to sleep right away

[dark osprey]

u can get in one sleep in the beginning. after that he would apply condition shield which lasts for like one of our sync cycles i guess

[lime raven]

Hm

Name any useful sync pair rn i’ll say if i have them

[dark osprey]

can try bringing in Mistly maybe and taking slightly less offensive paramaters

eventhough there is an overlaps

[lime raven]

Can i do poison stall this round

[wicked pebble]

by SC steven, you mean?

[dark osprey]

the one with the shiny stoutland

special costume

[dark osprey]

guess so. its just that for longer battles the burns might be more of a concern and they do have higher offenses

[lime raven]

But i can use swimsuit misty right

Who has full heal

?

Maybe im thinking too little here

[wicked flicker]

I used swimsuit misty for stalling against flint

[lime raven]

woah

Sounds good then

[wicked flicker]

yeah, it wasn't too hard to clear it 2.5k. Lineup was swimsuit misty/viola/ss leaf

clarified inc ase you thought i meant sygna suit misty lol

[lime raven]

No its okay

I knew it was swimsuit lmao

[wicked flicker]

you could probably even swap out ss leaf for someone else if you were poison stalling two fights or something

[lime raven]

Imma do sw misty lucy and janine

[wicked flicker]

mega healing and duck and cover kinda overlap

[lime raven]

Won me my battle against diantha

Master mode

wait

I shouldnt do flint r1 then

[dark osprey]

if poison stalling maybe not

Was suggesting this as a budget team. Maybe it's slightly rng and needs investment

[lime raven]

ah

I can definitely replicate that

maybe i can poison stall hop instead later on or maybe not at all

[dark osprey]

did get lucky with the special attack debuffs with Sycamore but should work in most cases

[wicked pebble]

ah, no, I don't have him.

[dark osprey]

making tate work is probably not worth it i guess

[toxic cobalt]

Tate is easy, so long as someone else does the flinching

[dark osprey]

could go for other interferences as well i guess

[grand trout]

Tate can do with busted supports

My tate nuked kahili

I used ncbede and scteven, but it still counts

[dark osprey]

its just that his setup for sync multiplier would take some effort and then may not get much dps. workable but its like more of a carry

yeah i guess those 2 are the ideal partners

[wicked flicker]

I'm acutally struggling a lot on bruno, not sure what lineup is best

trying to run bianca/sabrina/tina to burn bruno and set up perma reflect/psychic field but she can't take a hit, though I was reading earlier someone talking about having bianca tank

[left storm]

Bianca + Sabrina can definitely win

Having bianca tank isn't a terrible idea

[wicked flicker]

what conditions should I pick?

I might be overdoing it on bruno's offense

[left storm]

Yeah give him +6-8 strenght at most

[wicked flicker]

level 140 for both isnt too low right?

maybe i should bring more heals for a third

maybe ill bring holiday jasmine instead

[left storm]

140 is the level most people's roster is at

[toxic cobalt]

Burning Bruno won’t do much

[wicked flicker]

yeah, jasmine's working out bette,r though I still probably have to adjust the paramters more

[wicked flicker]

Mm

having trouble taking out the sides

[dark osprey]

even with the endures provided by H Jasmine?

[sick inlet]

Probably losing to sync

Since endure doesn't endure sync moves

[dark osprey]

ah. Bruno does sync a bit hard but they mentioned they are having trouble with the sides. not sure what the issue is

[wicked flicker]

I managed it

just had to move around a lot of parameters

i made him too tanky in the end

so i had to buff his attack a little more and abuse the endures yeah

basically won by one move lol

[dark osprey]

nice. guess only Hop to go?

[wicked flicker]

yeah

welp, that was much easier

[grim bison]

What's next months cs

[flint verge]

How do people clear the special cs.. I struggle lol:[

[silver dirge]

CS is mostly just a game of choosing the right params and sometimes dealing with the stage gimmicks. You can always send your roster here and get some help/suggestions for your teams/params/round order etc

[undone ether]

UGH. dang. Hmm

Iris just drops ATK randomly too

[main crow]

dont think there's info for that yet

[undone ether]

that's not good.

[main crow]

absol said he's busy today

[undone ether]

Guess i'll just run SC Diantha, but she's not really that good at 1/5 i think 😭

[formal vigil]

its on pomatools

[main crow]

oh unova

[undone ether]

yeah its unova

[silver dirge]

Diantha is fine at 1/5. Still has innate nuke and built in leech

[undone ether]

i just need a 3rd team member i guess

[keen jasper]

Calm months for now

[left storm]

My dude you have hop and aura Cyn

[left storm]

Finally I can try 3k eggmon solo DPS 3v3s

[undone ether]

hm

guess i'll just EX SC Diantha for it i guess

Just need a Speed buffer i guess

[keen jasper]

How about 4k pts.?

[left storm]

W-why

[undone ether]

for sync damage i guess? D:?

[left storm]

I mean I've done 3k offtype often, I just think ontype with 3v3 is kinda boring

[left storm]

I don't see the need when you have chop tbh

[undone ether]

Teh enemy spams -ATK and whatnot.

so uh yeah

[silver dirge]

Hop is strong enough where he just would not care about that tbh

It's also Unova CS

[formal vigil]

plus iris has low base hp

[undone ether]

HMM

CHop then i guess

[left storm]

Yea

Chop doesn't really care

[silver dirge]

What is NY Dawn doing on the vs Caitlin team?

[left storm]

I end up using him only offtype because ontype he melts even sentry entry too easily

[calm marsh]

4 down, only Marshal still alive

[silver dirge]

Amazing

[calm marsh]

I will call this discharge simulator

[grand trout]

That... doesn't sound good.

[calm marsh]

Bc all you do it spam discharge for 8-9 minutes

[left storm]

Checks out

[calm marsh]

Yeah, at least stall with Bertha i still use my brain

NC Blue is

[undone ether]

was hoping to just

Debuff enemies

with NY Dawn

and gauge lolz

can also just use SC Zinnia i guess

[grand trout]

I was gonna ask how can ny dawn debuff but i was thinking of ny lisia

In unova cs, the annoying one is shauntal right?

[undone ether]

yeah

just needs anti burning on your tank

you're good.

otherwise can run Psyduckmisty

[nocturne pawn]

no one is hard in unova

[grand trout]

I didn't ask hard, i asked for annoying

[undone ether]

my week 163 looks... alright. i guess. ;o

[nocturne pawn]

will o wisp is the move before sync

[manic kiln]

pin is updated

[nocturne pawn]

you shouldnt see it regardless

[manic kiln]

Unova is easy anyway

[silver dirge]

Thanks Lost

[undone ether]

guess i'll just sleep. i'll work on this later mmhmm

[grand trout]

Every cs has one

Lorelei, koga, glacia, Aaron, shauntal, malva (?), acerola

[nocturne pawn]

lucian is way more annoying than aaron imo

[grand trout]

What does lucian do again

[nocturne pawn]

hit very hard and be excessively bulky

[grand trout]

What stage is he annoying specifically

[nocturne pawn]

bug

dude just hits ridiculously hard

restricting special bug is also pretty awful

[grand trout]

I mean a stage that utilizes statuses, évasion, crit shields

Hmm maybe flint fits the bill better

[nocturne pawn]

aaron doesnt really do that

[grand trout]

Well yeah that's why i was asking

[nocturne pawn]

well electric has heal order

and SE x2

[grand trout]

Hmmm maybe I'll try bp falkner for flying next week

Btw @lime raven level up your melony

Her shields might prove useful in CS later on

[storm sinew]

Could use some help putting together Flint/Kahili/Hop teams (crossed out units I used for Bruno/Marshal) - just doing these at 0 pts for the completion right now. Want to get a reset before pushing cause I think I want to use Alakazam as a pseudo-striker instead of support next time

[lime raven]

Bro i did an all nighter lmao

I havent slept

I dont think im tired

[grand trout]

Uh

Did you finish cs at least

[lime raven]

no

I was playing violet lmao

Oops

[silver dirge]

I hope you doing an all nighter and CS are two separate events

Okay good

[lime raven]

Was Trying to find a shiny feebas

[lime raven]

I shouldve tho

I should look at that one run that guy did

With sycamore and gio

[undone ether]

U can get use lucian as a sync nuke. Can also offtype with NC Red

Thats 2 down

[keen jasper]

No Caitlin?

[undone ether]

1/5 .-.

[keen jasper]

And Gladion?

[undone ether]

No glad

[lime raven]

Oh yea i got nc red too

[keen jasper]

Well, you still have Will, Bianca and Lucian to carry you I guess

[undone ether]

NC Blue with Will should also work

[lime raven]

Im so glad nc leaf is the least used

[keen jasper]

Yeah, Stored Power will be hitting hard

[undone ether]

If he's still around xd

[lime raven]

Do you think ss brendan is good with caitlin

[keen jasper]

Definitely

But Caitlin is now self-sufficient with her buffs so might as well use SS Brendan in another team

[lime raven]

My lucian is only 2/5 so

Maybe him?

[storm sinew]

I'm assuming I have to grid Will in this case?

[silver dirge]

not really

Will has very decent stored power damage

[storm sinew]

I tried a SS Brandon/Catilin/Wallace team and Catilin's damage felt really not good

[undone ether]

And with nc blue maxing his offensive stats....u dunt need much

U can run tina too in another team

[storm sinew]

Should I save NC blue/Wil team for champ then?

[silver dirge]

NC Blue will also buff Def/SpDef wait for like a +2/3 buff on that and then use Will's TM to double that. which will eventually give you the 12 stats for maxed stored power

Sorry that's my bad it's based on target

[lime raven]

With cheryl too

[storm sinew]

Ungridded Will hit like a truck thanks. Ended up gridding Lucian for Sync nuke

Hop I off typed with NC Red & Articuno / Skyla & Swanna / SS Brandon & Latios and was obviously no trouble

[toxic cobalt]

Ungridded Will still hits that hard?

[storm sinew]

I mean it was 0 points but he was critting for 6k+ iirc

So harder than I expected for a 4* no grid

[silver dirge]

Yeah stored power is 👌 and Will has a pretty decent SpAtk stat

[storm sinew]

Plus Zapdos is a broken unit

[toxic cobalt]

So is Will apparently

[silver dirge]

It's a lil hazy but back at launch Will had one of the highest spAtks in the game, if not the highest

[storm sinew]

Now I just need to run it back for points

[toxic cobalt]

Looks very doable!

Lol I just noticed the challenge flint part 1 is in the hall of fame too

[keen jasper]

You kinda wasted Sabrina by putting her with Giovanni and Sycamore

But eh

[storm sinew]

Oh yeah 100% - she's already gridded so I'll probably just regrid her as pseudo-striker now that I reset to try @ 2500

[toxic cobalt]

Have her help Oak

[storm sinew]

I think I have Oak as a sync nuke rn, guess I could regrid for psychic

[toxic cobalt]

Both benefit from the theme skill and she can top up his spatk

Can give speed too with the right grid

[keen jasper]

And she also has Reflect for the physical attacks

[storm sinew]

That was hard, managed to clear 2500 Kahili w/ Sabrina & Alakazam / Oak & Mew / SS Blue & Blastoise
4 more 🙂

[clever bronze]

Should i ontype or offtype psychic cs

[tired sleet]

It depends on how many psychic dmg dealers you have

[sonic blaze]

doesn't matter, what matters is the points... I'd ontype with the units you're sure and feel comfortable to... then offtype with other broken units at the end for most efficiency.

[clever bronze]

Here are my psychic pairs

[tired sleet]

Should definitely be more than enough, you have more limited psychics than me

[clever bronze]

How is olympia

Is she a damage dealer?

[tired sleet]

Her DPS is fantastic, yeah

[clever bronze]

Hey it’s not high score

So teams focusing on lear, olympia, ss steven, ss lusamine, mewtwo

Any particular order to battle them in and which gets psychic terrain?

[tired sleet]

Probably put AnniMay with Giovanni and Bianca with Lear

[clever bronze]

Ok

[tired sleet]

Personally, I used LuSSa with OG Lillie vs Flint on the fast sync round
You could throw in a crit buffer or acc debuffer as the third pair

[clever bronze]

Ss dawn

[tired sleet]

I was thinking someone really weak but that works too

[left storm]

Lussa can solo on half sync anyway

Vs 17-21k hp stages

If it's psychics weak

[tired sleet]

That’s not flint tho

[nocturne pawn]

flint has like 25k hp

[tired sleet]

28k (actually it’s 28.9k so more like 29k, even without strength)

[nocturne pawn]

and also melts your hp

[tired sleet]

The advantage of lussa on the half sync param (in a 3v3) is that she can sync immediately after using her TM, which is why I like using Lillie

[clever bronze]

Does sc jasmine boost crit?

[cinder summit]

[tired sleet]

That’d work

[clever bronze]

What does og lillie do? Crit next?

[tired sleet]

Yup

And boosts Alola Spirit ig

[clever bronze]

I have sc lillie

[chilly cipher]

First time clearing 12 500, I'm very happy haha

[clever bronze]

I guess i should use psychic terrain against hop

[crisp dragon]

i have messed up somehow??

[tired sleet]

What parameters did you use?

[left storm]

Well you can make her work with any shitmon with endure

Flint takes like 85% from sync still

You'd just need good rng for attacks

[tired sleet]

Ik
All I meant was that Flint isn’t a 17-21k hp stage

[crisp dragon]

note to self
dont use too much hp params

[vestal echo]

damn cant beat this bug one with any points >_>

[sick inlet]

You can offtype it

[vestal echo]

I only have phermosa as a bug, and i tried poisining it but they heal it off instantly

[sick inlet]

Offtyping can be any of your other really strong units, not Poison stallers

Although, I don't recall they had anything to remove Poison?

[vestal echo]

They dont, but he has graduate healing which is like 5k hp per move, and my poison did like 2k ^^

[sick inlet]

Is gradual healing from your points or does he do it himself?

[paper summit]

the latter

[sick inlet]

Oh he does it himself on entry

[vestal echo]

him self im sure

[paper summit]

Siebold has the passive

[sick inlet]

Ye ye

Just checked

Well Badly poison would still over-take it eventually but you would need to hold on for much longer

[toxic cobalt]

Gradual healing is easy to overcome, just give it a bit of time

[vestal echo]

i die before i can, i just did it without points, then i try final stage with pts again

[sick inlet]

What points do you use?

You know different points for Normal vs Stalling

[vestal echo]

nop, was my first try on masters stadium this time

[toxic cobalt]

Check the pins, you need to adjust the parameters based on your team and strategy

[vestal echo]

any suggestions here, trying 1,5k on diaantha

[sick inlet]

You want to stall?

[vestal echo]

never tried stall

[toxic cobalt]

You need to support lucky with attack

So hop or something

[sick inlet]

Lucy won't clear this stage on dps though, will she?

[toxic cobalt]

Why not

[vestal echo]

so Lucy + who? and what points should i select for stall then

[toxic cobalt]

Oh if you’re stalling use the ones in pins

[sick inlet]

Hmm I don't know actually, I only ever used lucy as stalling

[vestal echo]

i prefer straight dps tho over stalling

[sick inlet]

You can try going for dps first if you want

But like Aurochs says, you want someone that compliments her

So Hop is a good example, buffs her attack and crit

[vestal echo]

need to see who hop is, one moment

[sick inlet]

Zamazenta

Steel support

[vestal echo]

yeah found him

and who should i use as my defense?

[sick inlet]

Hop

[vestal echo]

i mean a 3rd hero

[undone ether]

Hop is a tank. They can take a few hots

[sick inlet]

You can use an additional damage dealer, or something that debuffs like Kiawe

[vestal echo]

argenta i try

[toxic cobalt]

Or a sleep or flincher

[wide adder]

unova cs looks... interesting this month. lot of repeating types from what im seeing with only 1 week break between them.

especially shauntal and caitlin's rotations this month... and alder/iris apparently too jeez

[sick inlet]

That means less planning for those two

[wide adder]

4/5 of the weeks are going to be pseudo-recycled. fighting rock fighting rock. ground ice ground ice. dark ghost dark ghost.

i find it insulting that the SSN rerun banner is gonna be last day of the week for that first ice stage, if im reading the times things come correctly

[toxic cobalt]

I feel they used to plan these things

[wide adder]

they dont even give SS Hilda more than one day in this CS month to shine on-type, for people freshly pulling her, like BRUH

[sick inlet]

I think you want her more for HS event next month lol.

[vestal echo]

stalling doesnt cut it for me XD

[sick inlet]

What points did you take?

[vestal echo]

normal dmg reductions

i took him to 20% once but everything i have dies

[wide adder]

oh yay, fire type is next then huh, yet another type im gonna struggle in wahoo

[toxic cobalt]

Stalling works for everything but it needs the right time. Anyway try Lucy nuke dps

[vestal echo]

tried to buff her and dmg aswell didnt work

i may not understand lucy properly

[weak sleet]

The upcoming month is a really old champion stadium right?

[nocturne pawn]

unova

[twilit kiln]

hey Arch u here

anyone wanna help me clear r4 csmm Drasna

[old orchid]

Sure, post the team and params you are using first

To see if you are doing sth wrong

[twilit kiln]

So the problem is that I'm doing close to no damage with my sync

Like 6k

my serena is not fully grided but here is her grid

[old orchid]

Your grid is fine

[toxic cobalt]

Does Zerena have much of a nuke ?

[old orchid]

R4 is half sync cd, you shouldnt use pre sync params if you cant defeat her pre sync

[twilit kiln]

and im saving NC red for freeze cheese for last stage

[old orchid]

Yes she does

You should use post sync params instead

[twilit kiln]

the thing is, Drasna spams aoe moves and it doesnt survive even with post sync params

[toxic cobalt]

Huh I’ve never bothered I just spam the four bar

[old orchid]

Bring a good healer then

[nocturne pawn]

if you have a healer that can buff crit thats good enough for zerena

[twilit kiln]

should i change the grid too then?

which one do i have that would be good?

[nocturne pawn]

ok now i see the problem

[old orchid]

You dont have a support in that team

[nocturne pawn]

palmer has no synergy with either of those team members and your team is already slow as is

[twilit kiln]

no i accidentally clicked on palmer

i used xerneas xD

check the first two pictures

[toxic cobalt]

They had sycamore people

[nocturne pawn]

oh

mm

i would try using kiawe

[grand trout]

If the round is half sync, is it vest to have post sync params

Best

[twilit kiln]

who kiawe

[nocturne pawn]

alolan marowak

[cinder summit]

Kiawe & Marowak

Acquisition:

General Pool
Ticket Scout
Ticket Scout (Alola)

Alternates:

Kiawe & Arcanine

[grand trout]

Marowak shirtless guy

[old orchid]

But he fights for first sync tho

[twilit kiln]

can he tank?

[old orchid]

Yes

[twilit kiln]

or should i bring another tank with him

oh ok

[grand trout]

He has potions

A lot of them

[toxic cobalt]

Yeah but he’s better than Palmer

[nocturne pawn]

well use kiawe over sycamore

[zealous karma]

Shauna would be a better slot in than sycamore if they have her

[nocturne pawn]

he tanks physical slightly better iirc

[twilit kiln]

so i just bring lucian, kiawe, and serena? or should i also switch out lucian

[old orchid]

He is a deadweight if you are not syncing with him first

[nocturne pawn]

^

[nocturne pawn]

lucian is good

[zealous karma]

Sycamore has defenses in the 300’s Kiawe doesn’t reach 300 in any stat iirc

[toxic cobalt]

He still buffs slowly

[nocturne pawn]

keep him since you want to be using core enforcer

[old orchid]

Kiawe has on demand Potion tho

[toxic cobalt]

But anyway you only need to tank their first sync Zerena should clear house after that

[twilit kiln]

This is my ontypepost param

[nocturne pawn]

why not take sdr8

[old orchid]

Dont pick def up params

[nocturne pawn]

instead of -2 gauge

and yeah dont use defense params

[toxic cobalt]

Take both!

[twilit kiln]

so instead of defence 1, i use spd reduct?

[nocturne pawn]

what why

[toxic cobalt]

Also don’t take interference immunity

[old orchid]

Its a free param

[nocturne pawn]

wait

why did you take interference immunity with zerena

[twilit kiln]

idk

[old orchid]

Why tho? Zerena can restrain just fine

[nocturne pawn]

half of her kit is reliant on trao

oh wait its restrain

im fucking dumb as shit

sleep time

[twilit kiln]

so i take it?

me so confused

[grand trout]

Restrain isn't interference?

[zealous karma]

Yes

No

[toxic cobalt]

Well that makes no sense

[nocturne pawn]

yes you should take it

[twilit kiln]

and status condition is also fine to take right

[nocturne pawn]

interference is flinch trap confusion

all other status changes are unaffected

its only stages like misty from high score that would prevent restrain

[zealous karma]

Still works

[toxic cobalt]

Why are those different

Sigh

[zealous karma]

They’re status changes

[nocturne pawn]

status change =/= interference

[twilit kiln]

wait so i shouldnt take status change

[zealous karma]

This isn’t a status change it’s

[nocturne pawn]

interference is a specific type of status change

[twilit kiln]

what

[old orchid]

Interference is a small group in status chance

Yeah

[twilit kiln]

so i dont take it

[toxic cobalt]

Take it then

Don’t take Hp or defence

[nocturne pawn]

its fine i just got confused

[toxic cobalt]

Do take standard damage reduction

[twilit kiln]

so i can take both interference and status change

[toxic cobalt]

Yes

[twilit kiln]

and its fine to use sync nuke grid or should i use this instead:

[old orchid]

Use sync nuke

[twilit kiln]

okie

and i just use growl with lucian and spam the thingy with zygarde right?

i think lucian dies first sync

but let me try

[zealous karma]

Are you spamming growl with lucian?

[twilit kiln]

yea give me a second im going to record

Yes I know I messed up my sync timing but the point is that Lucian dies

What can I take instead of tech sync x3

[old orchid]

Dont pick that

[twilit kiln]

what should i pick

[old orchid]

Pick hp up 2

And free up atk up 1

[toxic cobalt]

That’s not first sync

[twilit kiln]

okie

[toxic cobalt]

What they should pick is move gauge -2

[twilit kiln]

zygarde spam move is 4 cost tho

[toxic cobalt]

You still have 4!

[twilit kiln]

and i dont have any guage accel iirc

i need to spam grow and my supports moves are 2 cost

[nocturne pawn]

your kiawe literally has quick tempo

if your lucian is 3/5 you should also grid him for charging infliction 2

[twilit kiln]

is it perma

[nocturne pawn]

well

[twilit kiln]

its 2/5 lol

[nocturne pawn]

no

[toxic cobalt]

Battle is not v long

[nocturne pawn]

well team viral hustle is still good speed support

[toxic cobalt]

And after first sync it doesn’t matter much

[twilit kiln]

yes cuz lucian dies

[nocturne pawn]

he just has to actually live first

[old orchid]

Most of time -2 gauge is basically a free param

Especially when you have Kiawe and Lucian

[twilit kiln]

ok i guess i remove strenght 3 and take guage -2

[toxic cobalt]

Sure

[nocturne pawn]

remove tech x3 lol

[old orchid]

This too

[twilit kiln]

i did

they all die at first sync anyways

idk

my zygarde was at full health

[old orchid]

[twilit kiln]

and it dies at first sync

[old orchid]

Use Misty then

Does your Zerena grid have Soften Up and Brainpower?

[twilit kiln]

nono soften up

[toxic cobalt]

Could switch Lucian for Skyla if Drasna had a physical sync

[twilit kiln]

not enough sync orbs

[old orchid]

Edit your grid to get these 2 tiles

[twilit kiln]

no sync is special

[toxic cobalt]

Damn

[twilit kiln]

no i dont have sync orbs

i have neough energy

[nocturne pawn]

if shes fully gridded

[old orchid]

Just reset

[twilit kiln]

is it fine to get rid of the bottom tile for sync power+?

[nocturne pawn]

you can reset your grid

[twilit kiln]

ik

[old orchid]

Do it

[nocturne pawn]

this literally tells me nothing

[toxic cobalt]

Yeah is fine

[old orchid]

Just get 2 tiles i mentioned first

Then use TM -> Dire Hit -> Thousands Waves for Zerena, after sync uses DH again

Because you will use Misty for spdef buffs

[twilit kiln]

This is the best I can do

[toxic cobalt]

Half sync Gakon

[twilit kiln]

yea its r4

[toxic cobalt]

So tm dire hit sync thousand waves spam dragon

[twilit kiln]

i dont have to grid misty right

cuz i have no orbs

[old orchid]

Delay sync until she is setup

[nocturne pawn]

or just

use a dh+ all unit

.-.

[twilit kiln]

whats dh+ all

[toxic cobalt]

Kiawe provides the third crit it’s fine

[grand trout]

Dire hit+ Ll

[nocturne pawn]

but doesnt she have restrained sync up

[twilit kiln]

so i use misty as my tank?

[toxic cobalt]

No but I am not too concerned

She will dps

[twilit kiln]

i dont have orbs for her

i cant grid

[grizzled ridge]

So this is my roster , can I build a team to clear kalos Master mode

[twilit kiln]

im so confused

does misty at 1/5 do more damage than serena with 3/5?

[nocturne pawn]

what

no misty is built for primary use of damage

[toxic cobalt]

You’re gonna have to stall bug lol

[twilit kiln]

so it does do more damage than serena?

[nocturne pawn]

no…

[twilit kiln]

so whats the team about?

i use misty ziawe and serena?

[stiff compass]

Just curious. How can you get this screenshot

[old orchid]

use the sync pair tracker

[lime raven]

Man

Cant find supports that can give me light screen

I mean sure i could get mespirit but i wouldnt be able to give it vigilance

[dark osprey]

there's mespirit, lyra, Annabel i think, Melony, Classic Elesa, egg Alakazam i guess and maybe a couple more

lol. i guess boomers can't survive

[grizzled ridge]

what comp works for that I have never tried stall

[toxic cobalt]

#1097597679015567420

[lime raven]

Wait melony?

[lime raven]

Oh woah

I really wanna use fall caitlin

lemme check what her lucky skill is

[toxic cobalt]

Keep in mind Fall Caitlin needs to sync but man is she funny on permanent field effects

[lime raven]

man

She has enlightment 3

Why am i always fumbling on skills

[toxic cobalt]

It's okay

She has inbuilt vigilance as a passive

[lime raven]

Oh awesome

Opening blockade?

what

[silver dirge]

[lime raven]

I’ll be back in a few hours lmao i took melatonin gummies

welp

gn

[lime raven]

This thing with caitlin

[silver dirge]

Opening Blockade is her passive

[toxic cobalt]

It gives her phys and special shields on sync

first sync*

[old orchid]

reading

[lime raven]

???

its only a matter of time before i fall asleep

[silver dirge]

On Mega

[lime raven]

Oh

Lmao

[toxic cobalt]

Click the dena symbol next to sableye and go to sleep

[lime raven]

I forgot about that

[silver dirge]

It's an entry effect but it works for Megas after sync

[lime raven]

hm

This is good

because

if sync buffs are more effective

then all i’d need is another support

with

Wait no

Everytime i see someone with fall caitlin they usually have her ex

Mine is only 1/5 tho

[lime raven]

I got like almost half of these

[silver dirge]

I would try to help but I genuienly have no idea what's going on. Backreading didn't help

[sharp jasper]

First time I faced against Diantha poison team , she is really potrayed the same like in mainline game.

[grizzled ridge]

So how does this look for kalos CS MM

Not yet decided the round order but might change it a bit depending on round

[silver dirge]

Interesting, guess it works. You've gone for Crit Focus on Cyrus then?

[wet gate]

who do i not want to fight on r3 for normal cs

[silver dirge]

Physical Damage Reduction? It's not hugely significant, but if you want to benefit off of it don't go for Malva I guess, she only uses Special Moves

Drasna is also completely special

Wikstorm is completely physical, just do him then. Although fire is an easy option for R4 if you've got Silver

[wet gate]

oh i meant r4 mb

it said be careful who you fight

[old orchid]

fight anyone who you are confident that you will take them down pre sync, or use a post sync team

[grizzled ridge]

Yeah

[wet gate]

ok got it

[twilit kiln]

remember the team we made for me? im stuck at r4 because the team ended up not working

r4 was Drasna

[silver dirge]

I can't say I do remember what was the team?

[silver dirge]

I see, okay what's going wrong?

[twilit kiln]

im finishing 2k run on my alt give me one second and i will record the battle

[silver dirge]

Np

[twilit kiln]

These are the parameters I'm using rn and I added both status and the other one because restraint doesn't get affected by either of them apparently

[silver dirge]

You attempting post sync or pre?

If you want to go pre-sync, pick up some very offensive parameters and drop some strength.

If you want to go post-sync, bring a strong tank who can buff your defenses

[twilit kiln]

wait i just cleared t

wth

[silver dirge]

Woo!

[twilit kiln]

Arch buff kinda insane

[silver dirge]

very nice just the champ left now

[twilit kiln]

yea imma just cheese with articuno

do you know what it is

i just ex'd my serena

i didnt ex serena before

[silver dirge]

I can also identify some minor problems that'll help in the future

[twilit kiln]

i forgor i did

[left storm]

Is she 1/5

[twilit kiln]

3/5

[silver dirge]

Your crit wasn't maxed out before sync 😔 I think none of the thingies crit

[left storm]

....wow that's weird

[twilit kiln]

yea they didnt xD

[silver dirge]

Also you used Spiky Shield on Shauna

[left storm]

Zerena basically does 80% to mid and kills sides with sync usually

[silver dirge]

That's not great for sync cdr

[twilit kiln]

thats true

but my last problem was that my tank dies too quick

so i thought if i used spikey shield, it wouldnt die

[left storm]

Sync did crit tbh, I'm pretty sure

[silver dirge]

It's a nice nullify, but if you max out crit and sync on it, you would've cleared it much faster anyways

[silver dirge]

Oh

[left storm]

I don't see the "screen reduction" effect

[silver dirge]

You're right it did crit

The shield isn't shielding

[left storm]

Also Zerena has soften up

So +2 crit = sync crit

Always

[twilit kiln]

i think only second did

oh true

i do have soften up

[left storm]

So yeah that's just parameter issue

[silver dirge]

Oh I thought it was +3 = sync crit, cos even with +3 that's an 80% chance only

[left storm]

No no, it's 100% even on +2

It's why Anni Skyla is pretty great at 3/5

[silver dirge]

wow that is enlightening

[left storm]

Se self sets +2 crit and has soften up

[sick inlet]

That's with soften up

Usually sync moves are only 80% even with +3

[left storm]

Yea we're discussing soften up

[silver dirge]

Yeah we're discussing soften up

[left storm]

Lol

[twilit kiln]

also are there any characters that has 100% spdef down like lucian?

[left storm]

Gen pool you mean?

[twilit kiln]

yea

i have all gen pool characters

[sick inlet]

There is, the newest gen pool

[twilit kiln]

which one?

[sick inlet]

That's not out yet

[twilit kiln]

oh

[left storm]

Uhhhh aside Lenora no

[silver dirge]

Woops sorry that's a long list

[twilit kiln]

whos lenora again?

[sick inlet]

That was defense down too

[left storm]

Lenora has AoE -1 Def and spdef at 1/5

[sick inlet]

Normal gym leader unova

https://tenor.com/view/lenora-pokemon-generation5-gen5-black-gif-17979923

Bad Woman that lives under a library

[twilit kiln]

oh i guess i dont have her

[left storm]

Bad woman?

[sick inlet]

As in badass

[left storm]

Ahhh

Yeah she's cool

[sick inlet]

She's the newest unit I was referring to

[left storm]

She's gonna drop in 2 weeks

[silver dirge]

She's not out yet

[twilit kiln]

oh that makes sense xP

[twilit kiln]

LETS GO

[silver dirge]

congratss!

[twilit kiln]

ty

couldnt do it without you broski

[silver dirge]

Nah no worries

[twilit kiln]

https://tenor.com/view/squirtle-pikachu-pokemon-dancing-happy-gif-15646320

[silver dirge]

I wonder when/if the CS params will be updated to reflect Field/Sprint units too. Like the tech/support/strike take 3x damage

Maybe if they update it to 15k pts

[grizzled ridge]

free pointss

2500 is so hard i think my team is too weak lol

[old orchid]

No need to push to 2500 if you are not ready yet

[grizzled ridge]

Man almost beat it with 1800 points I think may is good enough for this mode it is just the heat wave that kills me

[left storm]

You can probably weaken sides with hydro to turn denial

[toxic cobalt]

Just making sure you’re syncing with May not Cyrus!

[grizzled ridge]

Lmao that was it

Cyrus is too weak

May becomes op

Man swampert is such a good pair was really fun to use

CS doesn’t give gems ?

[keen jasper]

That's only the special CS

[left storm]

Cyrus is way better than may tbfh

He can abuse support ex and isn't held back by AoE

But yeah they run well together

[grizzled ridge]

True the damage of both mattered

It was mainly really on crit rng with spacial rend then it became a bit easy

Now I wonder which of the other 3 I should take for r4

[full mesa]

Why do you run spacial rend when you have rain?

[grizzled ridge]

Crit buff turn 1

[full mesa]

Ok

[grizzled ridge]

Will this team be okay for Drasna r4

[toxic cobalt]

Why is Calem

Refresh me does NC Blue buff spatk?

[nocturne pawn]

yes lol

he is literally the special support

[toxic cobalt]

Not in my heart

[calm marsh]

He is the best special support, +6SpA and +3 crit in one button

[keen jasper]

His TM fully buffs everyone's Sp. Atk. and crit

[toxic cobalt]

Taps sign

[keen jasper]

Assuming you spend 3 gauges that is

[silver dirge]

[keen jasper]

Not as special as my precious SS Morty

[swift swan]

we can't be friends

[grizzled ridge]

Idk lmao random

[silver dirge]

Calem still got a decent innate nuke @ 1/5

Blue buffs him fully in 1 turn just paralyze

[grizzled ridge]

Better than mewtwo ?

Can I try 2500 with that team ? Although it is offtype

[dark osprey]

honestly Calem isn't doing much there

[old orchid]

gridded Mewtwo syncs harder than Calem

[dark osprey]

can probably try with Lucian or Bianca if you have them

[silver dirge]

Mewtwo will still have the better nuke tho yes

[toxic cobalt]

You could probably do it with just Giovanni and NCBlue

[sick inlet]

Calem is for those who want to show that Selena don't deserve all the spotlight

[toxic cobalt]

Selena

[sick inlet]

100% forme Yveltal Calem When

[silver dirge]

Selena my beloved

[toxic cobalt]

The true protag of gens 6 and 7

[sick inlet]

I meant Serena, but i ain't fixing it

[toxic cobalt]

But yeah try 2.5

[grizzled ridge]

Yeah thanks will try that but Drasna doesn’t have psychical moves I think

[silver dirge]

That's fine you're mainly going for SpDef debuffs. Although arguably yeah Lucian may be more beneficial somewhere else

[grand trout]

Man

I should've used calem for fighting cs

Well, there's still unova i guess

does mespirit really need vigilance against flint

why cant dena just do battle villa more often

[steel kelp]

wdym more often

its once a month every month for like 2 weeks thats plenty of time

[lime raven]

no i mean yeah but

I just wish cookies were more accessible i mean

[steel kelp]

gring lg then

[lime raven]

when it comes back

[sick inlet]

It's coming soon

[nocturne pawn]

it comes back in 2 weeks

[lime raven]

I hope this works

[nocturne pawn]

why not use blue

[lime raven]

I saw someone do a run but they had celesa instead of sabrina

[nocturne pawn]

or is this a random stage

to show the team

[lime raven]

Oh wait

Im dumb

I forgot to put it back on flint

[swift swan]

Sabrina and Giovanni are a staple in many psychic teams. Just make sure to use sabrina's TM on Gio

[lime raven]

oh yeah sp atk buff

[quaint solar]

How do you use it 🤔

[quaint solar]

How to ask it about Aoe paralyze units

[silver dirge]

Have a look at the pins there's commands there in #bot-zone (Pinged you there with ^ example)

[lime raven]

man

i cant survive their sync at all with this team

If i could somehow play to the point where i had access to mespirits light screen right before their sync

[dark osprey]

What round and team are you trying?

[lime raven]

(Mespirit)

Round 1 flint with this team

Oh finally

He decided to use tm at the start

WHAT

bruh light screen wont even help against a sync

[dark osprey]

He's got +2 sp atk from the get go. You'd probably need special defense buffs and light screen with decent parameters

Need a pretty tanky support to take him. Maybe ss blue

[flint verge]

Is there an easy way to show off my units for the psychic cs? I have a ton of units just lost on how to beat master mode on the new one

https://tenor.com/view/invincible-that's-the-neat-part-you-don't-gif-14180388429135427516

[civic trellis]

I think its just mallow and sidney? Maybe ny dawn idk if she has aoe confuse

Oh she does

[storm sinew]

Got through the first 3 on 2500, working on the R4 Marshal team now. Don’t think Will is going to cut it damage wise now

Trying to save the NC Red off type carry for Hop

[lunar meadow]

No crit buffing on the Marshall team seems risky

[left storm]

bringing hop seems free

[lunar meadow]

Ya, I just did it but my comp has EX Musharna and Clefairy.

Zamazenta over xatu is probably better for crits on Musharna and more healing

[left storm]

you could run hop musharna and win

tbh

2v3

[zealous karma]

Can we stop encouraging 2v3’s and 1v3’s ?

Like if a unit can doesn’t mean it should be done that’s more challenge than actual recommendation and if someone is asking for help that is not likely the answer they were seeking and I really dislike seeing it be encouraged more in recent

[left storm]

yeah it's just to say those two can do it in duo easily

so you can just add a random third

and it'll be as smooth as butter

[storm sinew]

Not really hopeful on this one tbh, really lacking the damage

Musharna needs that 3/5 I think

[left storm]

are you spamming stored power?

3/5 only gives her utility

[formal vigil]

don't you need a spak buffer?

[zealous karma]

Bianca does not have any Spatk buffs here I’d replace hop with a more specialized support while using him as a defense/crit buffer is fine it doesn’t serve the best role for bianca

[left storm]

You can make do with +4 tbh

But yeah misty is borderline useless here so might be better to add another unit instead

[storm sinew]

He said any random third so I opted for evasion from misty in case I needed to cheese a hit or two out at the very end

[paper summit]

see why telling people to 2v3 things is not great?

anyway, yeah, try to pick someone to complete Bianca's buffs easier, no need to force her to use her TM too much when she also has to spend a turn setting Terrain

[storm sinew]

Seems doable now, based on last run just need to get a little lucky on Hop potion MPR

[left storm]

I mean I didn't say to 2v3 I said those two can work well enough together

I think letting people test and try without just force-feeding a team formula makes them more prone to learning

[paper summit]

right, that's fair and actually a good approach, it's just some people take things to heart/a bit too literally sometimes

so wording is important

[left storm]

I understand, I'm pretty tired (it's midnight here and I worked all day lol)

Sorry about the low effort help

[zealous karma]

Don’t worry it’s just for future notice you’re not the only one I’ve seen saying this and it’s something I felt needed saying

[lime raven]

Wait what

[zealous karma]

What don’t you understand?

[analog timber]

Is there a list or explanation somewhere of what qualifies as a field effect for Diantha? Is it anything in the Field Effect section of move filter (including weather, zone, damage field, etc.)?

[old orchid]

You already listed all of them, but missing terrain

Have you filled the sync pair tracker with your tracker? The site has field effect filters

[analog timber]

I have - didn’t realize that filter, thanks

It would be these three filters, correct? For something like NC Blue, does this include damage guard next?

[storm sinew]

Can clear Conkeldurr and an add but then the rock slide from the remaining unit wipes me :/

Seems like i just need higher caps for more bulk

[old orchid]

Damage Guard next is a status change, not a field effect

[old orchid]

Dont push too hard if you are still new to the game

[analog timber]

Ah I see - NC Blue has hail in grid. But would something like Move Gauge Acceleration be a field effect - I don’t see a filter that shows those (for example Colress)

[old orchid]

MGA is a small group of field effects: allied side field effects

For these kind of field effects you can use Poryphone bot's /search command

[lime raven]

Well

at last we got flint

[lime raven]

2 down

[grizzled ridge]

finally did it lol better than last time with 8k points ncred is too strong just had to spam with it and gg

[grand trout]

Do you guys think liepard can do caitlin next week

[silver dirge]

Grimsley? Could do it with enough support but there are probably better options

E.g. Karen

But if you just wanna use him for fun then you can make it work

[grand trout]

Yeah it's more of fun

What units can i use him with? Nc calem and MR?

[silver dirge]

You got Calem or Cyrus?

[grand trout]

Wait

Scteven

Nccalem and scteven seems good yes

[silver dirge]

Ah if you've got NC Calem then it'll be a breeze ngl

[grand trout]

is it a grimsley clear, or nc calem clear ft grimsley

[silver dirge]

Idk Grimsley is special iirc? SC Steven only helps with SEUN and rebuff, the defence debuffs and PMUNs won't help

But if you don't want him elsewhere then go for it

[silver dirge]

if your support is hard carrying your dmg dealer then the clear belongs to them

[grand trout]

Special but physical sync

[silver dirge]

Ah okay decent then

[dark osprey]

Can try with Nanu as well.. Honestly Nanu clears feel easier

[thin pecan]

How are you supposed to beat flint? He’s literally impossible

Hit him with a 36k sync and he still wouldn’t die.

He just does so much damage before and after sync

[silver dirge]

This could be a parameter issue. What's your team, what round and what parameters?

[thin pecan]

I’m using pre sync and second round

Also new two or Lear

[silver dirge]

Mewtwo I assume you mean? Are you running one or the other, or both Gio and Lear at the same time? And what are your 2nd and 3rds? It would also help if you can send a screenshot of your params so we can see if there's anything cutting off your damage

[toxic cobalt]

They don't call it Challenge Flint: Part 1 for nothing!

[thin pecan]

I switched him to round 4

Just used Articuno and the stored power people on him with psychic field

I don’t know how you’re supposed to beat him without investing everything

[lime raven]

Still waiting for part 2 btw

🙄

[silver dirge]

Flint with Grand Entry 6 and HE 9

[vast dome]

Siebold is too bulky especially woth healthy healing

[old orchid]

do note that he has Sentry Entry x2 which doubles his defense

[vast dome]

Lusamine is made of glass

Maybe use her with Aaron

[old orchid]

do you have 3/5 Burgh?

[vast dome]

Yes

[old orchid]

no need to ping me

use him then

[vast dome]

Sorry

[silver dirge]

Go for Burgh + special support + spDef debuffer

If you can fit sun, that's a bonus

[old orchid]

at least use him with a spdef debuffer

Burgh gains more from spdef debuff tho

[vast dome]

What abput Lusamine

[old orchid]

if you dont have SS Morty

[vast dome]

Ans this is round 1

[silver dirge]

Yea you're right

[grand trout]

i would, but somehow the opponents seem to shake flinch off before i could sync

[silver dirge]

If you've got either SS Morty or SS Brendan you can fit both spDef debuffs and sun

Otherwise just opt for spDef buffs

[toxic cobalt]

You have to sync literally the move after any flinch

[vast dome]

And Burgh grid?

[dark osprey]

Oh. If it sounds good to you, should try the cat and dog bite combo of Nanu and Karendoom (gridded for crisis countdown as well)

[vast dome]

I have the sun

[silver dirge]

What's your team?

[old orchid]

[latent eagle]

How tf do I beat CH hop CS 😭 probably just gonna attempt to off type but idk even know where to begin and I didn’t realize that it was ending so soon

[silver dirge]

Just the champion stage or all of em?

your psychic roster is pretty strong

[latent eagle]

All of em

[silver dirge]

Ah okay

Gio is powerboosted?

[latent eagle]

Ye, was gonna try n save him for against hop

[silver dirge]

One sec I just needa check the round params again

Okay Round 3 is half sync, you should prolli decide your team for that first. And the other important thing is to not do Flint Round 2, since he already has a very high chance of burn

If you want to off-type some stages you've got some really strong candidates to do that. 3/5 Ash will obliterate everything, throw in Volkner with him

SST Red, NC Red, Champ Marnie

For on-type, Lear can go on a team, give him some special support help. On-type presync parameters

SS Brendan + Anni May + Giovanni will be good for Hop

Olympia is very strong, could pair her with Bianca and a special/crit support for double Stored Power as another team

[latent eagle]

What order should I do the rounds? (besides not doing flint R2) bc telling me figure out my R3 team first doesn't help when idk who should be what round 😂

[silver dirge]

Caitlin, Lodge N too

[silver dirge]

Round 1 can be any stage
Round 2 can be anything but Flint
Round 3 can be anything too, Bruno is the easiest to do this I think
Round 4 can be vs anything

It's more about what teams you use for each round, not who you vs. E.g. Round 4 should be a team that takes advantage of terrain/zone/weather /other field effect

[latent eagle]

It's easier for me to build team's if I know what rounds to avoid certain stages (ie flint R2)/what round order to do, it helps me figure out what order to go n how to build teams

[silver dirge]

Yeah I understand that, it's just that some of the params don't actually apply to the opposing team if that makes sense.

E.g. "Sync buffs are more effective" - Well if you're pre-syncing, then they won't be syncing anyway Similary, none of them use a significant field effect, so Round 4 doesn't effect them, just you.

But if you need a direct answer you can just do Kahili, Marshal, Bruno, Flint

Or, since Flint is the harder stage, Flint, Marshal, Bruno, Kahili

[latent eagle]

Should I try n off type flint w/ ash or stay on type bc he's hard?

[silver dirge]

Off-type Ash should work just fine v Flint

Just make sure you pick the right params. Volkner + Ash + Tank is all you need really

If you don't want to rely on Volkner for paralysis (Ash nuke) you can also find a support that can paralyse and slot that in

[left storm]

[queen hill]

How can i beat diantha? I have tried multiple time with no results

[silver dirge]

Well, what teams have you tried? And what was the issue you were facing?

Also, hard mode or master mode?

[queen hill]

Normal mode, this is the first time I Made it this far

[old orchid]

how many types have you filled in the medal?

[queen hill]

I have tried the already selected team

[queen hill]

I don’t know what you are talking about sorry

[toxic cobalt]

Selected team does not seem that great. Have you read our teambuilding #1010307000346878062 ?

[queen hill]

(English is not my first linguage)

[old orchid]

you want to fill 18 types into the type medal to unlock Master Mode

each region has its own type medal, but after unlocking MM you dont have to unlock it again when that region returns

[queen hill]

I don’t have anything unlocked, this is my first time that I Made it to the champion

[old orchid]

no worries, its okay. feel free to ask if you are confused on something

[old orchid]

you can check the progress of the type medal in the CS menu

[queen hill]

Thanks for the understand🙏🏻

I will check the faq and try again

[trail smelt]

Oh we have the Unova cs list?

[paper summit]
