#Champion Stadium
1 messages · Page 212 of 1
Very busted, that unit
Gives me marnie vibes…
Plus Iris has very low HP
Bea also absolutely wrecks Iris, Rei is a solid few leagues above
Well i did everything i wanted to do in this game…
Welcome to the CS weekly grind, starting next week you’ll be able to take on Master Mode if you finish type medal then
Thank you very much btw ^^
Good luck!!
4 types are missing!
Nice! Now you can take on MM
Super easy to finish it next week then
MM is harder, but it's cathartic if you know what to do
Should be able to get those 4 in next week
Aight
I personally run Lusamine every Bug weak stage if possible
Oh wait
I haven't use scingo as a nuke, always utility
Maybe I'll use him
And noland as dps
Not much of a nuker unless he's at higher move levels tbf
As long as you don't put too much bulk, sure
Yeah j don't use hp params
Burgh is my go to for bug weak even if I've got Alder 
Besides cutter Noland can rack up serious damage anyways
Be careful with grimsley, otherwise it's free
See if any of your teams can take advantage of the parameter
But if not, it's okay too
Plan your round 4 1st, IMO
Half-Sync rounds are much harder than any other round parameter
So you wanna basically bring your biggest guns to that showdown
Dana won’t do much if you’re off-typing, I’d recommend using her as a tank elsewhere if you’re gonna use her this week
If that's your strongest team and you believe you can survive marshal's sync, sure
I'd bring a defense buffer instead of Dana, yeah
If they're tryna do the medal, this might be a good option to put in just a random filler type, since NC Red will breeze through it anyway
Yeah, probably NC Red + tank + warm body for triple queue
For the NC Red team this week
Doing type medal means you can get more powerups sooner
Filler pair, just needs to be there for triple queue
You should have skyla from story no? I'd save your possibly scarce crit buffers for other stages
Skyla and SS Blue can both work
If you want, ss blue + nc red + a random filler
You may want to consider using him on a different team that needs more help than NC Red, but you can keep him with NC Red if you want
Save NC Blue for a different round that may need him, remember you've got 4 other stages to complete too
Same with proton, but you can probably use him here if you'd like
Yeah, NC Blue is definitely better saved for a separate team since he can fully setup any special damage-dealer
If you read NC Red’s kit, he does not need NC Blue.
NC Blue you can use with any special attacker in any battle
Which skyla
Yeah it's fine, anything with NC Red is fine honestly the others are just there. Maybe switch one of them out so you don't have two flying.
Oh the main story one
I thought any alt
NC Red will wreck the stage, just don’t use someone that screws up gauge.
Maybe use hop just for potions
If you think Hop is just good for Potions, you are dead wrong.
Just use hapu to get ground done
Skyla already has potions. We don't need too much overlap
Mid, always target mid
Don't forget to triple queue
NC Red meta
oh you mean which stage
Targeting a trainer? Real Lance here
Just go someone who isn't Marshal or Grimsley R1, Caitlin works
Also I'm sure someone said this before, but have you decided your half sync (R4) team?
She just debuffs SpAtk -2 on entry and her spDef is a little higher than usual
hyper beam's on her turn before sync
Oh and that
She spams stored power too right
She spams stored power in my game without buffs l o l
Maybe that's why i beat her so easily
I can't figure out wh y she sometimes doesnt use her don't bore me tm
very random
What are your three remaining E4 teams?
Should build those before deciding who is next, as it will depend on your teams
how far did you get? Did they sync?
If this is your NC red team I do recommend waiting until R4
That's odd, you should have cleared it a lot earlier
Shouldn't matter, Red can turn denial
Are you triple-queuing correctly?
+triplequeue
In Pokemon Masters, the battles revolve around using your Sync Move as fast as possible.
Using moves will reduce its cooldown, which is also the case for the opponent!
This is why you always want all your pairs on the field to have moves queue'd.
Have 3 ally moves in between each 1 enemy move, even at the start!
After 9 moves, you can wait to queue your Sync.
See this quick footage for how to Triple Queue :

You don't need any support moves you're running NC Red :/
All gauges go to NC Red. Others just spam their TMs/low gauge moves
I feel like at most a sync and an ice beam should take mid out, no? On hard mode
Really recommend saving this for R4 this is a blessing indisguise
If gridded, i suppose so
Yea I would too depending on roster
Yeah, we're suggesting NC Red team vs Marshal on R4
Each CS round has a certain parameter that will impact the battle. So the order in which you fight the elite 4 matters
That's what we've been suggesting
Of course
That's the point of CS
We just said to plan for R4 first because it's the most difficult
Very much so
With crit buffs, yes
He lowers defense too
If you have Nessa she works easier
Pair them together with a crit buffer!
Hop
Regular. If we say only the trainer's name, we mean the base unit
Nessa and drednaw
No, since you'll be using jaw lock
Nessa has great dark DPS
A physical support
Well, you need a crit buffer
Nessa and masked royal works well together for dark weak
Sure although a general note to not think too much about support type
More Obstagoon had dire hit + all really
Not enough 
Yes
Jaw lock and brutal swing. If you have enough gauges, darkest larriat
Don't put piers first
Piers just spams trainer move and TM if you're low on gauge
I would recommend grimsley round 2
So that for round 3 you can take on shauntal with permanent rain to boost your water types
Yes. Check pins
Yes, the parameter is Infinite Field effects
We have round paramaters listed
If you use rain dance
Mhm. Rain boosts water attacks so bringing a rain setter is encouraged
Can work
Solgaleo it is. Get his copies
You only have 1
Get all the legendary adventures copies, for that matter
Get them to 20/20 potential too, if you haven't
Their custom
are also in the shop
That's right
Sure
Honestly you can just run Hop 
Hop solo 
Sure, but at 1/5 he's mostly for utility
Any steel will work, just go with one so you can use some other types
Solgaleo as your main damage dealer
I would recommend jasmine as tank
Both, you need a crit buff, remember?
The crit buffer can be someone else that is not steel
So you can maximize the types you use
Of course if you want to use Hop alongside Solgaleo, it works
Hmmm
I would not recommend Jasmine as a tank, too slow
Part of their roster for reference ^
He works
Giocat? Yes that works
Classic giovanni? Sure
Crit hit guard
Crits are so random in CS. Very unlikely you'll get critted when the opponent is at 0 crit
Crit buffer, check. Damage dealer, check. Solgaleo eats gauges so the third can be a cheap speed buffer
Or a defense buffer since grimsley hits hard
No 
Cheren buffs nothing
Can you send a screenshot of your supports
Sonia
+tracker Also for reference in the future, you can use the sync pair tracker and follow the guide here
Link : https://pomasters.github.io/SyncPairsTracker/
Use this video guide to properly filter your pairs : https://imgur.com/a/2ONrAcl
Fill your pairs > Turn Visibility only for "Have" > Filter by Type then Role > Turn On "Separators" > Print with "Image" button
Sync Pairs Tracker for Pokémon Masters EX
Sonia can also debuff defense
so anything notable happening?
ah "real lance" is the one being "helped" this time
yeah use that tracker if you want to share ur roster easily with others
You haven't use sonia yet, yes?
You can use her yeah
Yeah use the tracker in the future lol
Anyway Sonia provides gauge if you use a potion
So gio, solgaleo, and Sonia
Gonna be so overkill
Just in case though, can I see your fighting damage dealers
Before you use solgaleo

Oui
Bea!
That's fine
also she provides speed everytime she's hit, which = gauge
oops discord not scrolloing down 
So yeah gio sonia and solga
Bea! Alright, so solgaleo can safely go to grimsley
holdup gio?
oh it's the cat
Don't forget about Sonia potion mga if you're low on gauge
HOLD ON couldn't you just get rid of sonia for something better suited to fill the team's needs (more gauge support since sonia doesn't do much outside of pot in CS)
what round is this
R2
She fulfills the team's needs for gauge support already though. Even gives defense debuffs too, and is a good tank for Grimsley who hits hard
It's hard mode, you don't need an EX support. Solgaleo will be fine
so not alot of options used
OH YEAH IT'S HARD MODE LMAO
k I only have to use a quarter of my brain
who do u have left?
also we have more info on who they used what pairs and what e4 they got left?
Shauntal and marshal. We recommended NC Red vs Marshal R4
So: Rosa, Cyrus, Winona.
I doubt you used those three types
you can probably replace rosa with a filler type tbh
ofc it's a staple f2p team
Can you grid cyrus with critical focus? It's on bottom left of his grid
actually you should probably use someone else instead of Rosa to fill out the more niche types for the medal
cuz I see that you have 2/5 Shauna
It's fine they haven't used any grass yet
the leg adventure pairs need more XP to level up (apart from sycamore for whatever reason)
If you don't want to use Rosa, Roxanne is an option. Pretty frail as a 3* though
oops nvm Rosa isn't even EXed 
yeah use someone else
maybe a more defensive pair with a niche type since Cyrus is self sufficient
Winona Roxanne Cyrus my team
WHAT'S WITH THE MODS AND THEIR NAME CHANGE
Also we got rock weak next week so I doubt you'll not use a rock type
HOLD ON DIDN'T THEY USE KUKUI
Hm, sycamore/cyrus/winona then
Masked royal
Hey! Roark does good enough for CS 2.5K
Add a poison unit just for the hell of it
so have they started with shauntal or
basically, if rosa can be EX'd, use her with cyrus and winona. if not, just use sycamore imo
might wanna save rock type for next week
Replace Roxanne with Sycamore imo
Try and get Cyrus' crit buffs in himself and let Sycamore buff the rest
can you grid Cyrus with Critical Focus? it's on the bottom left of his grid
wait how does cyrus buff himself again aside from tm
Crit Focus, and Special Rend has +1 innate crit iirc
TM and crit focus, basically. but his TM's kinda slow and kills himself too
Crit focus on tm?
bro it's hard mode
Ah
which is why roxanne/sycamore are popular partners
It's for the fairy completion
Yeah ^ they'll get rock next week
but they only have roxanne as rock pair
I'd rather save sycamore since he's basically a free win in hard mode regardless
well, roark
they don't even have roark!!! 
nov is also doing a Roark clear next week 
either way, Sycamore works great tanking Shauntal. can dispel the sure-hit burn from will-o-wisp too
they will eventually
even if they don't, then Roxanne can still be slotted for next week in some way or another
what? as fodder for NCRed?
And the mga is permanent!
This is just a super simple pre-sync I expect more from Nov
Because r3
check my stage clears and take a look at what i'm trying to cook next week 
If you can't grid Cyrus' critical focus, I'd just suggest Kiawe at this point
Just copy my theme from this week 
No supports Roark clear is where it's at
Yeah he needs pb for that
Why is the orange suddenly so much more vibrant in your name or is it just me
what, your level 1 clears 
Has anyone cleared rock with kukui
they're trying to trick you into joining their SS cult
bookmark roster
Nov this is your chance 
urk...
lots people have
just get kukui EX ez 
just need ex your fine
Sand blaster 5 + Cakewalk makes for a pretty decent nuke
Nukui
I wanna do triple lycanroc next week, but there'll be no meatshields rip
Maybe I should indeed EX my kukui
If only paulo had his cake...
I exed mine yet I haven't cleared with him
well you know what to do
Nahh I wanna put Paulo to pasture first
Maybe next time
Let's see if I can fit kukui into my theme for next week
i forgot he had an EX

@manic mica if you're still here please move the ouija board
What’s the team, what’s Cyrus’ Sync Grid, and what move(s) were you using?
Did you grid the Critical Focus tile on his grid?
You need to do Spacial Rend a few times until you get a crit off the innate, he'll buff crit rate subsequently
You’ll wanna grid Critical Focus and use Spacial Rend once at the start (if it doesn’t crit then restart the fight), yeah
It’s easier to do than it sounds, don’t worry
Take your time, just note you don't need to be using his TM if you've got Sycamore or Roxanne on the team
Baby tepig!
melony tm buffs crit you didnt need to queue it again
not you using Hilda as a potion bot... the audacity
Master Healer 2!
i mean tbf her potion grid is better than a lot of supports since she has mh2 instead of 2 mh1s
which means less energy used
Yes that should work
Can help you out with the badge
Spacial rend for the crit
Sync with sycamore for the spa buff
Avoid using his tm as it can drain your hp
For the +1 crit everytime you crit
After you get plus +3 you can use Hydro pump
Only 3
Np
@vast iris you can also do cyrus against Shauntal as well
i tried
If you’re trying to fill the medal, yeah I would replace her.
I wouldn’t necessarily use her for an NC Red team anyway
Btw, please use your stamina.
Any filler pair is fine, since this is hard mode.
Save Skyla.
And don’t ping me please, k?
Whichever is best for your team. Avoid the fourth param tho.
That’s why you plan your team first
You can always go back, too
Just plan the team before doing the match.
Bea is good what supports are left?
He still has hop iirc
She’s not the main tank, so just 100 should be fine
Lv1 
That won’t make much difference
What is going wrong?
yes! Hopefully your type medal is looking good
Always the way
what does your type medal look like? we can start planning for next week
click the info symbol
Do I have any chance of beating The Unova challenge on hard? I bought the gems bundle and wanna complete it so I can get my gems. I haven’t worked on my sync grid on anyone yet cause I don’t know if I should be filling the whole grid or not
I’ve unlocked everyone for the legendary adventures
You should get them all to 5/5
Or is there more to it? Sorry sorta new player
+legexchange
When completing a Legendary Adventure in the Main Story section, you will be awarded a sync pair, 4 vouchers and 20 power-ups
(usable on that pair only)
- Trade the vouchers for copies of that pair (in the shop > legendary adventure tab)
- DO NOT TRADE the power-ups, use all 20 on the unlocked pair (in upgrade > potential tab)

Ohhhhh ok. Didn’t know I could do that. I feel dumb ok.
lol don't feel dumb, there are so many menus in this game
oh, well done
nov you aren't joining the naming scheme going on?
imagine being a fomo victim, smh

Respectable tbh

Luddite
CLICK THE INFO SYMBOLL
I’m sure they know which types they require to get the medal if they don’t want to prep now that’s completely fine
They might be busy or whatever having 7 is a good amount to have
I wanna use victor next week
But him setting up ghost zone on entry means one of two things:
-i dont sync with him and he messes up quadqueue
-i sync with him and i miss out on the benefits of a support ex
I know sync acceleration/turn denial exist but sigh
Try to deny the left side with his sync and/or another dmg dealer
Well thats the only way
I wish he had extension so his zone lasts until the second sync but i guess that's too much to ask for a free unit
Wait you mean you want to preserve zone for his sync?
His sync isn't insane but it's decent enough thh
For his second sync, yes
I guess I'll just use ss blue or something
Field role's Ghost Zone is extended anyway
Debut is basic, but field ex extends zone
Yeah that's what i mean
I think his sync is worth humoring
If i sync with him first, that means I'm not syncing with a support ex
Also he can act as support too so like
You can run him + another ghost + a tech that disrupts or enables them
Max regen + TM barricade+ max shields is an underrated combo for high str
Oh i guess that makes sense lol
But doesn't support ex sync buff defenses too
770 hp + 210-220 defences isn't shit
Absolutely not
It just gives 50% more dps
On top of 50% basic onr
If i use bugsy nect week, should i sync with him first, or second
Sync with EX support first
was wondering if it was only Bugsy as the damage dealer maybe syncing with him but yeah that isn't a very good team
No I'll use him as nuke
Especially if its holi jasmine


People summoning for Magnezone, while Aegislash is the true king
Yees Wikstorm representation! I did the same couple days ago
#1153583498687414283 message
It was gyro ball
If you pick stats ↑3 a gyro ball grid hits harder than an iron head one
I should try that with gyro jasmine
But Jasmine has pretty bad attack
Wilkstrom got a great indirect buff with the last update
If you can roll a pin and bracelet with max attack, he gets a big buff
I used a +80 bracelet and +20 pin
I did Jasmine too, funny numbers
I think this was the real deal
My wilkstrom had 8 pmun and seun
Is anyone doing a 2 v 3 f2p run?
I'm not aware. Might be difficult to do a full f2p
Sycamore can solo though! 
Yes ofc
Let's see here
Wait you don't have many ex supports
nope :<
some of them are capped, but I dont have any champion spirits
I never noticed, but yeah, outside of typical Rosa, I only have 2 😰
Ah, DW about it
It's unova after all
So i was thinking r1 we can do caitlin
You have an exed karen so that's nice
We can use her
Or if you want to take advantage of the round parameters you can use absol
Which is your preference
Karen
Wait i mean akari
He's on my list to EX up using champion spirits 😦
Do you want to use her over karen?
She has dark zone
Let's use akari instead
How about ss morty, rei, and classic red
sounds good
Alright, good lucj
Try them, in the meanwhile I'll set up your r2
Yup
Be aware that ss morty can disrupt quadqueu if you use weather early tho
Yayyy
We should do grimsley next
I want to recommend steven but I really don't have faith in his damage capabilities
I tried doing steven :T
His damage capabilities suck
Let's use solgaleo instead
You can use hilbert and sonia to help with the gauge and crit
Yoyr hilbert has crit squad?
Give it to him then.
Also give him mpr on spd all
In 5 turns max spd/att/crit
In worst case scenario you can do only 2 spd all TMS and use waterfall for flinch
Lmk if you're finished
@distant moth i need to go but
R3: archie, rosa, melony (for funny screens and safeguard for burn) vs shauntal
R4: ss kris, ss Ethan, and skyla
Champion: ncblue, scdiantha, ss blue (use debuffs)
Thanks
what's up
just having a bit of trouble dodging the rock slides from the hanger on, but Im pretty sure its possible
thanks so much for the help!
Currently we are helping ian do 2.5k
He's now on grimsleys round with hilbert, solgaleo, and sonia
If you still find it hard you can replace Sonia with hop as a support/potion/secondary damage dealer when free move procs
I'm assuming r2 cuz of this right? sry ik u busy but
Grimsley done (。・∀・)ノ゙
I personally think that you can get away with replacing Sonia with Colress
oh nvm u beat him
HOLD ON A MINUTE!!!
Akari for Dark Zone? I would really want to have her on R3 more than a water team
... and champion is a freebie, especially if you replace either support with Rei
Rosa?
Not outputting enough damage for shauntel :\
not to mention chandelure sets up the sun after the first sync
why are you recommending Rosa when they have plenty of better options? 
.
archie + cyrus/may should wipe the stage clean
@distant moth New plan: Melony, Archie, Cyrus. Doesn't matter that there's no EX support.
I'm assuming you know how to grid Cyrus for Hydro Pump, right?
yep
Shauntel done /o/
yay
R4: ss kris, ss Ethan, and skyla next
Marshal done 
For the Champion, would Rei be better then SCDiantha?
Probably but also it doesn’t really matter
Im going to wait till next week before I EX someone
Since I can now get one of mine that are in the queue, or fully max out a sync pair from the beginning now /o/
#1092630262032126082
Pretty close
Do it ontype and it’s more than possible
cs reset aint coming fast enough 😭😭
Lots of stall
but I think PB ex Sol and Nanu can maybe duo
Full poison stall f2p is full f2p and full offtype 
2v3 stalling is harder than 2v3 post sync I reckon

2v3ing does that
Blue just wants to be there :3
pb ex solgaleo and pb ex hop can duo easily
if anything i think shauntal is harder 🤔 you need to bring weather eg. may but also a tanky support so may ends up being the nuker
Well may isnt F2P but I think winona + Cyrus can duo on type if you know how too properly requeue and saving hop would be better
Self bonked
Grimsly vs him
defeated by his future self
Hi 👋 I've gotten to the last stage of Champion Stadium, but I messed up and I've used the optimal team member already 😅
I don't have too many level up items left and was hoping to get an opinion on what team to train up
Before I commit
Co op for level up
Oh I'll do that thanks
Is this a team that can possibly win?
Did you use all fighting types already do you have any master pairs unused
I have wally and Maylene and I used the master pairs
Thank you
@vestal echo post your entire roster here please, but do it under Upgrades, not edit team.
I'd do separate shots of Support/Strike/Tech etc so it's easier to see. The tracker would be ideal
From what i saw in #poma-questions so far
Team 1: Skyla/Moltres/SSRed
Team 2: Zapdos/?/?
Team 3:Argenta /?/Akari
Team 4:?/?/Zerena
Team 5: Sycamore/?/Articuno
Don't have to do all off-type teams, I think there's a lot of value in forming on-type teams with some of the story/gen pool pairs too (especially if there aren't similar limited options). Helps with teambuilding and strategy overall
which is why I need to see their entire team comp
Yep 
the pins here have the entire schedule
Look at the pins the schedule is there
yeah i will when i can do masters again
Tomorrow is reset

Sync Pairs Tracker for Pokémon Masters EX
Is this for mm or hard mode?
hard mode
Yep from tomorrow it'll be second row on that schedule
Uve got this then
ill do the tracker now, gonna take some time i think
oh just hard mode!?
you'll demolish it unless you meant master mode
Master mode is what I was preparing you for
They mentioned 2.5k earlier I assumed MM too
its the one with points xd
Ohhh
that's master mode
That's master mode
ok MM it is then 😄 sorry
while you do that, imma get coffee, but one thing I will say, you already have a overstacked roster.
Grimsly needs a team so help me build one for him
Post your roster
you'll have no problem with the units you have, what's more important is how you play and what Params you're running
ty, i played one month lmao,
which grimsley
hope ur right
Grimsley on the CS I assume
you have 4/5 Zerena, 4/5 NCRed, 3/5 Zapdos, 1/5 Moltres, 4/5 Akari, and Anni Skyla.
Bug weak new reset
Have you done this week's?
Here is my roster and the types I need
Yea
Need help to be prepared for tomorrow reset
true xd, ima do that tracker shortly, at work, finishing a case and ill do it.
Kind of hard to make a team if most of the units you need are at level 1
Yeah you're going to need to get some units to 120/125
Use a spreadsheet o.o like this
Don't worry about levels I have enough manuals
You just need help with a grimsley team? You've made teams for the others?
Oh its monarch xD
He is there
oh found him
Hum u might meed to change up your teams though
oh. it's the same person?
Yeah
I see
?
So for this week u need to check their sheningans
And unlock master mode
Youll want victor/spectier against caitlin or mewtwo
Hum u can run guzma and sonia. I think she has lithe
Ok, so do this.
Grimsley: Snivy/Surskit/Ho-oh
Marshal: McTorchic/Hariyama/Latias
Shauntal: Araquanid/Sandslash/Charizard
Caitlin: Seviper/Spectier/Mewtwo
Alder: Acerola/Drake/Olivia
@slim prawn
this will get you all the types.
Oh nice
SS red Charizard?
Yes, your aim is to get the medal here. So it's just mostly strong DD + fillers
Grimsley: Sync with snivy, then spam Sacred fire, unless you have dauntless, then Overheat.
Marshal: Use Latias to deal damage, MCtorchic tanks, Hairyama heals torchic
Shauntal: Araquanid tanks, has fire guard, use sunny day against Shauntal
Caitlin: might be the toughest, your goal is to deal shadow ball damage with mewtwo. seviper tanks although is not a tank, you need poison type.
Alder: use Drake to tank, have acerola set sandstorm before you sync so you can deal unga bunga damage on Olivia's sync.
There is only one shivy/serperior
The second one says Seviper and Spectrier
Oh seviper
Is it enough
change the gears if you can
but yea that should be fine for hard mode
Should I evolve surskit
He doesn't have any grid
Viola's not doing much here it doesn't matter
4/5 now
This ok
Good luck 1/5 Latias
What do you mean
Not the easiest team
Hard mode not master mode
Ah in that case 
Latias already buffs crit so torchic is kinda useless, Roxanne would work better for defence buffs probably?
Even in hard mode
Get those types in
how do i link my tracker 0_0
Yeah, fire has way better units to slot than torchic
Meanwhile f2p rock is pretty much Roxanne and BP Olivia
if you have abetter team to get types to unlock MM, go ahead
if this was MM, it would be a much more coherent team
What do you mean
Sharing the pairs with tracker
i used that tracker link to create my roster
Option
Do visibility first and tap on Have
Then click on image
Itll take a bit
Then scroll down
Then tap and hold your image
Post here
Do the seperators too by role
Great
@vestal echo heres somethin you can use
Use sonia on zerena's team
Oh for EX, hold on their rarities
With a taphold
Zapdos team, mewtwo can be good
With clemont for debuffs
He's not ex'ed , as i didnt play during event
doesnt matter
Ex doesn’t do much for him
hm ok
Yo guys, I need some help building a good champion stadium team. Been playing for 29 days and I'm going to tackle it for the first time since I finally managed to finish battle villa.
yeah i tihnk you're set.
have you filled any type in the type medal?
You need 5 champion stadium teams ! 🙂
Not if tackling for the first time!
fire, rock, dragon, steel
You can also add more people in the zerena/akari team
so far. I've beaten grimsley and marshal
ok ima try tomorrow, ty man!
Have you done this week's?
Just the first two.
You can check PoMaTools for like, sheningans each battle will do.
Okay, so 3 stages remaining
yes
Which rounds have you done, what teams did you use?
in my case. i build my teams around their sheningans.
And do you have any on type damaging units you want to use for the remaining rounds?
(btw this is for this coming week's stuff)
thankfully i have next 4 days off work, did 100 hours of overwork this weekend as it was a free week too, so i can grind a bit
tbh your teams are pretty good but if you want to grind for level ups, i guess that's fine too.
im probally throwing the phone thrugh the room a few times
Im grinding for max points
I have beaten Grimsley and Marshal.
I have used

Meaning I have filled fire, rock, dragon, steel
so i can ex more 😄
Alright so to summarise, you need to beat Shauntal (Water), Caitlin (Dark) and then the Champion Stage (Fighting). And you've got fire, rock, dragon, steel completed on the medal, rest remaining?
Yes
Alrighty just gimmi a sec
We should probably get R4's team out of the way first. You've got Akari that seems like a no brainer, let's throw in Classic Gio for the remaining Attack buffs, and then just a random filler type like bug. This is for vs Caitlin round 4

R3 seems to be SS Kris
For Shauntal (R3) perfect since we've got permanent field effects, let's throw in SS Kris for the rain. Hydro Pump Cyrus works, May works, Nessa works, up to you here really. We'll get a repeat type but no prob. 3rd can be a filler again, once we've made all the teams throw in a type you haven't got covered
For r5 you haven't used NC Red, let's put him in for the ice medal. Throw in filler tank and filler 3rd tbh
You'll cover Ice, Water, Normal, Dark, and then hopefully up to 4 or 5 filler types
Just a couple left for next reset
arigatou
may i ask what did you mean by permanent field effects?
rain dance has a limit duration no?
Yeah, if you read the round parameters at the bottom
There's a stage effect for each round
For the 3rd round, it'll say something like Field Effects are permanent
So whenever you set a field effect (weather, zone, shield etc) it'll be permanent
aaah so the bonus changes based on the order i fight them
Yep! If you read R4's it says Use sync moves quickly
That's why I said let's get R4 team out of the way, since it's the most annoying one
No problem!
do u think i can do smth like 7500 pts in master mode?
Who should I use for water?
or should i just stick to normal mode for now
Yeah, pretty easily actually. You've got some great options in your roster
Have a look at the presets in the pins for some suggested parameters, and you can always ask for help whenever you need it
aight!
master mode?
Yes
which round
Whichever one you think is your best team for that type, do that R4
I have nc Marnie for r4
Unova's pretty smooth sailing, any of your water options works really. May, Nessa, Grimsley
Bring a rain setter, appropriate support. Choose the right params, boom
Yeap, that'll do
I think Grimsley is pretty simple to set up, could go with him. Grimsley + May + Hilbert is pretti good
Ok
SS Grimsley of course 
i would use Cyrus over SS Grimsley
Who do I sync with then?
dont use both Blue together
Grimsley: a defense debuffer
Marshal: SS Elesa + another dmg dealer/a spdef debuffer, just sync with Blue first
Shauntal: replace Hilbert with a crit + spatk support
Caitlin: can use anyone
Iris: Hilbert + a defense debuffer/another dmg dealer
i just give you the idea of who to use
so you have to figure out
Ok thanks
Just pointing out Marshal has Stalwart
easy to forget
How are these teams?
Would replace Hapu with a gauge/support on the first team, doesn't have to be ground
Guages will probably be a problem on Grimsley team too, Solgaleo is slow and consumes guages like crazy
Blue's team is good, except Marshal has Stalwart so you can't debuff his spDef 
if your Solgaleo is powerboosted you can replace Hop with a gauge support like Skyla
Oh it looks like that ground team is for something else, ignore that then mb
Cyrus' team is great
What does solgaleo powerboost do
yeah lol
no need to ping me
I already beat the first battle
Caitlin team looks good to me, So does Iris' although I'm not sure what Adaman is doing there
Bea will obliterate it either way, but if you wanna throw in Adaman for fun shouldn't be a problem ~you'll just have to make sure not to pickup Standard Damage Reduction
I can restart if its necessary
oh
thats okay as long as you didnt use anyone you gonna use in other 4 teams
adaman for def down
Oh
yeah just that team
Atleast tell
i would use someone like Nanu or Kukui simply for def down
but its the last round so doesnt matter much
Go to pomatools and have a look at Solgaleo's PB there. You can see the grid in detail
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
i totally forgot about nanu
Nanu, Kukui, Colress
but he is only 4 star
No prob, rarity doesn't really matter
Why?
Do you have any other flying DDs?
What's wrong with lucian
because stalwart
Marshal has Stalwart, you can't debuff spDef
Oh ew
what is dd
damage dealer
Anni Steven or Zinnia?
Skyla would do fine
zinnia
I'd just throw in Skyla or Winona for some flinches tbh
skyla flinches?
Might proc Harry 5 if you've got it. Should be fine either way
Yes, staggering on grid
If you want to be funny, darach can debuff atk
oh i dont have that
So can Lucian 

Also he's not flying so he doesn't even go here
ok ill use skyla
Yeap unfortunate
gotta grid her first
Blue will clear it regardless, 3rd could be a filler
Don't worry too much about it if your resources are spread thin
nah i got 5k orbs
That is pretty spread thin 😭
It takes 7.5k orbs for one full grid, I'd just save em
isnt it 750
Huh. TIL
yeah 5k individual
They get converted
I beat marshal
lol i beat caitlin before marnie got a chance to sync
last one
Champion?
ok im done
Woo! very nice
gj
you can use a spreadsheet to save your teams for next time
so you can just copy pasta your team again
when the weakness comes back
or, you could try a completely different team next time and have some fun with teambuilding
all up to you
Not the easiest to use but bishsarp is one of the hardest hitting single target damage dealers
Inmortal mushroom
I beat the champion thanks to you
Hilbert was clutch.
Haha glad to hear that. Let's do our best this reset!
The inmortal deer too
Hoping for perma field effects later for my Victor 
Last hour babies
Advice on parameters with these teams, especially the last one?
Sorry, forgot until it was almost too late, thankfully teams were already built
On type pre sync for all of em. You should breeze through, just remember to adjust params to your teams
For R4 any of them will obliterate, but just do dark it'll be the easiest
was asking since I normally do special or physical focus but the dark team has both.
Won't matter, just drop the reduction you'd usually have picked, and either pick up an extra strength or attack parameter
I generally go with 1500, to note.
Oh well up to you, but those teams can easily do 3-4k points too, 2.5k should be a walk in the park (As long as you triple queue and follow basic gameplay correctly*)
I'd give the ontype presync parameters in the pins a shot, if it doesn't work just drop a couple.
I'll go for it next time since I don't have it set up.
Sure 
Who would want the field stuff more, the water type or the dark type team?
...Jesus. Marnie just destroyed everyone in one hit with Dark Zone up.
Told ya
You're going to need to read up on the teambuilding guide first in #1010307000346878062
And given that, I don't think there's enough time to troubleshoot in 14mins
Grimsley + May + Hilbert can clear shauntal easily
I just used her EX sync move and the enemy team EVAPORATED.
i have 1/3 of those pairs and im not even sure if i have the correct one
You should definitely give 2.5k a shot next time your roster will decimate it
Do you have Cyrus?
yes but i haven't leveled him yet
Just bring him for Hydro Pump, special/crit support
Ah
It's still definitely doable cos Hard mode but we only got 8 mins, you should ask for help with next rotation
but my game says it ends at 11/6?
probably cos its my first time ever clearing CS hard mode
idk
The stages will reset/change types this week
ah i see
Unova CS will still be here for a while
Good luck with the new week 🙂
