+quadqueue
frozen depotBOT
Watch this footage (17s clip) : https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx3Nr07pJo2Noud7AwWW4yWQQIDbYsQTJQ
In this clip, when Flannery is about to Sync the opponent Aaron has nothing queue'd in the list. This leaves us with a very short window after the sync to queue a fourth move. Note in the clip how Flannery queues her TM before the opponent's High Horsepower. Look out for the orange "spiral aura" around your syncing Pokemon after the sync, the correct timing to queue is when that spiral is fading away, but you can also resort to button mashing!
The benefits of quad-queue is that it allows us to get two sync moves before the opponent's first one which is a game-changer if you're not using sync acceleration. A Sync Move does not count toward the Sync Countdown which is why without Quad-Queue or Sync Accel your second cycle usually leaves you at 1 countdown left when the opponent is using their Sync.
Note that Quad-Queue cannot be done under certain conditions that will make the opponent queue as your sync is executing :
- If a field effect (such as weather, zone, move gauge acceleration etc) expires on the turn you're syncing. Usually happens if a field effect was cast on entry or first turn.
- If an allied passive triggers an effect right after an enemy action completes (such as First Aid, Team Shout, Freevenge etc...)

Won with 2/5 SCDiantha.

Switch EX argenta for Diantha nuke then
the EX on Argenta wasn't really required, but since you literally have 5/5 Diantha, you can beat it easily.
like even if umbreon didn't die, it would be about 9K damage, and i'd be able to survive the attack because endure, just swap to the side attacking, and aura sphere. that would do about 3K and be enough to ko

850 pts are just slightly harder than hard mode
850 points should be no difficulty increase compared to Hard Mode, with 3 caveats:
-
Your damage-dealer(s) must to be on-type.
-
Your damage-dealer(s) must be only physical or only special for their damage output.
-
Your team can do either without status conditions or without interference.
Those 3 caveats are generally very easy to work around, though
trail smelt
First 3k Alola next reset hoohoo
keen jasper
Can't wait for Sinnoh and Hoenn 3k 
But I'm always doing above 3k anyways, so who the fuck cares?
meager agate
i don’t think i can consistently do 3k runs whilst maintaining my own personal rule of variety, idk. it takes a lot of rng to be able to get less meta sync pairs to win at that level.
and i’m trying not to just have that one team that beats everything for that type, or two.
mellow linden
It depends on what the restrictions you’re setting for yourself are
zealous karma
A lot of players have felt similarly that 3K kinda killed theme clears as it can be super restricting on certain themes some being only possible in a 2.5K setting I say this as someone who tries doing themes every week
mellow linden
I’ve made Clair and Lusamine work in 3k, though I’ve used strong Supports for each (though I might be able to get away with a less potent Support with Lusamine, idk)
meager agate
cannot use the same damage dealing unit for a stage twice in a row, preferably should be able to use more varied strategies to keep the battles feeling fresh when i do them. which is also what i felt like was needed for my videos
zealous karma
I’ve made Clair and Lusamine work in 3k, though I’ve used strong Supports for ea...
A lot of unit can do 3k with their ideal supports but not a lot of units can do this when they're limited to lesser units
meager agate
yeah i do try to get away with less when possible
mellow linden
Tbf I probably can still work using only gen pool for both, it just gets much less smooth (namely with Clair)
meager agate
ok but i have a single brain cell and a massive skill issue so
mellow linden
Since without SS Kris I’d likely be forced to run Clair’s Dragon Breath for Paralysis
zealous karma
ok but i have a single brain cell and a massive skill issue so
omg relatable
meager agate
idk if i can describe what my usual attempts at variety are so i’ll just send a bunch of my video thumbnails and hope someone figures out a pattern
i try to shove in at least one weaker team per run
but it’s not always consistent
and while yeah i can probably get away with 3k for most of these teams, if those battles are taking way too long (retrying for like 30+ mins because skill issue or otherwise) i’m just not gonna be able to have fun with that
i want to be clear i’m just asking for a few second opinions on whether pursuing 3k runs is ideal given my situation
mellow linden
Can still give it a shot, this channel’s always open for advice and worst case scenario you only lose the time it took to make the attempt(s)
I’ve 3ked Steel weak Lance with regular Steven (who at this point is fairly outdated) and Hop + Rachel (who can easily be swapped for like Skyla or something) as the Supports twice now
If that helps any
meager agate
in fairness lance himself is also a bit dated lol
older leagues have lower effective bars to MM entry and all that
but yeah i get it
weak sleet
Who is designed to beat leaf?
mellow linden
I think NC Serena given the fact that ideally you wanna debuff her
weak sleet
I don't have lyra but I have Serena
So she should be super easy
They didn't change the other opponents any from the regular versions did they?
old orchid
Yup
mellow linden
As usual, the E4 is copy-pasted from their respective regions

Oh phew so it will be super easy to blast through them if needed with stuff with nc Marnie, rats, nc red, and Adaman.

Which means flint is obnoxious
What's wrong with flint?
old orchid
Flint hits hard
He was designed for SS Misty, because he has Good Form and Rising Tide
If you dont remove or debuff his positive stats, he hits real hard
steel kelp
Flint said he wants his turn 1 flare blitz
weak sleet
What would I want to run with misty?
old orchid
Do you want to nuke with her? If not just bring a good dmg dealer
weak sleet
Would may and suicune work?
old orchid
I would be real surprised if they didnt work
Tho i would save May or SS Kris for another fight, unless you have enough rain setter
steel kelp
love Winona erasure

These are my water types
Not sure if there's any I should use for other fights? Any tips would be appreciated
steel kelp
Rosa is a funny unit
weak sleet
How so?
Also is 12.5k enough points to get the important rewards for the special stadium?
steel kelp
Razor shell and nuke hard
That’s more than enough
It’s like regular stadium where the rewards stop being good after like 4K or something
dark osprey
Malva would need a rain setter and a decent damage dealer with suitable support of your choice
Could try Grimsley if he works to be a bit conservative on resources
So you could allocate like the 5 best damage dealers on each of the teams firstly
Archie, NC Serena, May, Nessa and Kris
Plus do filter with move type so that ones like Cyrus are not overlooked
Plus the eggmons if you have gyarados especially

If you'd like to make it more ideal you should bring a support who buffs Hilda/Diantha's offenses. Also Akari really doesn't need 2 supports, you'd be outputting a lot more damage with another dark-type like MR on that team. Instead of Caitlin just sitting there. But if it works, it works

or i could offtype one of these with Nate and offtype champion with Red
mellow linden
I doubt you need to off-type either of them since it’s Hard Mode (unless you’ve used both types already and are off-typing to get more type medal progress)
mellow linden
At worst you have Silver and likely Blaine, who’d be enough for Hard Mode easily
mortal pine
i have variety lucas actually is he good for fire weak?

Solid option in general, should be totally fine for Hard Mode (especially if you bring someone with Sunny Day as a teammate)

Pretty sure i did them in the wrong order (sp atk down with ss red in round 3 lol), but i’m glad to hit 12/18 on my first alola hard week
Assuming next week is going to be the same rotation and weaknesses (maybe the round effects change?), my missing types are Electric, Ground, Poison, Ghost, Ice, and Fighting. So these are my units for those 6 types (4 more at the bottom i didn’t screenshot are Candice/Abomasnow, Wulfric/Avalugg, Clay/Seismitoad, and Janine/Ariados)

these are the ones for next week.
old orchid
You have one week to prepare, dont worry
dense birch
Oh sweet ty
old orchid
The round effects are changed between weeks, and we dont know about then until reset
Your missing types are not super effective on the next week weakness, so you can use units from these types as fodder
dense birch
Ok cool. I’m still thinking that for next week, I can try some of the following:
- Maylene as an X Attack All bot for one of the teams
- Would Courtney/Camerupt be a good Ground DPS for Olivia?
- MC/Pikachu can be a Potion bot for one of the teams
- Maybe Lorelei/Lapras can be a tank for one of them?
Ghost is the one i will really struggle with haha

Ok cool. I’m still thinking that for next week, I can try some of the following:...
Oh right, Olivia is Ground weak, i forgot. Tho she needs heavy gauge support to keep gauge flow
You better using Ghetsis as an offensive debuffer, Lorelei is not worth using at all

find a defensive support who can buff +1 crit then

does molayne set sand at all presync?

alright, kinda surprised by the lack of gimmicks after how long ive been used to gimmicky stages but im thankful for a simple looking clear
Haven’t picked support slots and possibly second dps with solgaleo yet. But I’m thinking maybe something like these?
Might replace gordie with something else too Idk
Didn’t touch the support slots since I’m figuring out side slot for solgaleo team first, although leaning toward prob like ncalem for gauge on solgaleo team
old orchid
replace E. Victor with SSR Cynthia if you want to sync with Leaf
i think SS Hilda's team is the best team to use the perma field round
Gordie uses max move right at the start to setup sun, then lower Fire rebuffs
wide adder
Didn’t touch the support slots since I’m figuring out side slot for solgaleo tea...
(see this regarding leaf being there, im prob not using leaf on that team)
old orchid
i would use a gauge support and a defense debuffer instead of Falkner and Proton in Solgaleo's team
wait, Olivia is anti defense debuff
maybe adding another dmg dealer? im not a fan of double support comp
wide adder
idk which second steel type to include vs anti def debuff, any opinions?
wide adder
Right, second ss is all my move type: steel
Third shot shows my limited supports (and by extension all my exd ones other than Aaron)
old orchid
how about trying Hop + Solgaleo core? with Hop tanking and the SEUN stuff gridded
then a gauge support as the third is fine
wide adder
then a gauge support as the third is fine
Would bp registeel be ok for a third then? Or should I pick something with higher base speed / faster speed buffs instead?
wide adder
For the registeel team does registeel or hop tank? I assume hops better in tank slot? Idk what the condition was for his seun tiles off top of my head
wide adder
Does this team layout seem good? I’m gonna be surprised if dragon team lasts longer than sync+max move since Serena is caked so just using falkner to round off stats
old orchid
good enough to me
wide adder
One last question; for ghost team, would you say nuking with victor, or swapping him for ssrc and nuking with Lillie for aoe, would be better overall probs?
old orchid
sync with Victor first, then Lillie
do note that Proton's passives prevent quad queueing so you should do turn denial as well

I saw the above screenshot, tho why you using SuTate? Solgaleo is right there
unless the lion is not powerboosted/EX
junior solstice
sutate is 3/5 im assuming
north crown
Also, PMarnie is a compotent nuker if she's 3/5, so
old orchid
Tate has better output than Solgaleo anyway
junior solstice
wait she is 3/5
north crown
really? I didn't know that

p sure you can just use PMarnie to deny left, then use SuTate to obliterate mid
get that Mega stat boost going

Alright, Tate managed to finish first. Good thing I synced with him, Roxanne would have died without enduring.
junior solstice
do you have lucian?
wicked pebble
Yeah.
And I tend to play it safe and just stick to habits and routines a lot.
so that probably should help explain things for you.

junior solstice
do you have any special defense buffers with potion?

2.5k to 3k is kind of a harsh jump

Not for teams that can literally burst clear a stage (SuTate' Doom Desire be like:)

to be fair i can clear 3k with mc solgaleo hop and registeel (all with ex and powerboost)

Who can i use in order to carry the pasio stadium in a few weeks ?
I have 5 rain setters (Lyra Vaporeon/Egg Vaporeon shiny/ Shiny Blastoise / Wynona / Greninja Calem)
then i think we can add cyrus even if he is ungridded
4/5 Gladio (i don't know how good that will be)
I think Cerena is really strong should have her own team, so does may
oh may can bring rain
swift swan
Cerena, May, Cyrus, Nessa DPS, SS Grimsley nuke
don't forget lodge gives you some good water types, like lodge silver, lodge may, and lodge rosa
silver dirge
Is there a reason you can't grid your Cyrus?
swift swan
Cerena, May, Cyrus, Nessa DPS, SS Grimsley nuke
siebold has a good nuke too actually
hushed lintel
yeah but i am unlocking exeggcutor
silver dirge
Shortage of

swift swan
yeah but i am unlocking exeggcutor
ah
hushed lintel
in the lodge currently
i got ghastly
too
i can grid cyrus but it's not unllocked
swift swan
i think mega kick Kris is worth considering as well, though she will need an accuracy buffer
hushed lintel
i don't have the events
swift swan
i don't have the events
it's fine, for hydro pump he doesn't need the powerboost
mellow linden
He doesn’t need Power Boost
hushed lintel
to 6 star him + full grid
swift swan
his powerboost tiles makes his dragon DPS better
mellow linden
EX also won’t matter because his Sync is off-type anyway
Hydro Pump is at full power just from 5/5 20/20
hushed lintel
should i bring one rain settler per team ?
swift swan
if you can afford it, though sometimes it's not necessary if the unit is already very strong like Cerena
hushed lintel
Cerena, May, Cyrus, Nessa DPS, SS Grimsley nuke
WOn't Ness lack dps without the 3/5 ?
mellow linden
She doesn’t have that much in the way of regular move modifiers in grid
hushed lintel
i meant without the nuke
will she be able to clear a 2500 ?
because cerena is probably a free round
so would be May
mellow linden
2.5k is likely doable on one of the weaker stages (Shauntal or Olivia) just fine
hushed lintel
i don't have enough experience with Cyrus to say for sure but i think he will be strong
and Grimsley can nuke with his 3/5
as long as i don't one shot him ig he will be fine 🤣
old orchid
Grimsley wants rain more compared to other options, his sync is strong but his dps is lacking
his sync might not be enough to pre sync in higher scores (3k) without rain
hushed lintel
i need more support ex i think for the 3000
swift swan
Cerena and May can 3k their respective stages I believe
you can lower the points for the rest if you're not comfortable yet
old orchid
some people, like Aurochs, beat 3k CSMM regularly without EX and max evolution (mostly)
so dont worry about that

EX supports help immensely, but it's all about gameplay and teambuilding at the end of the day

Hop and sol did enough even on this
I basically just strength stack with hp8 cause most of my types are stacked
Made the params around the idea of not swapping for most stages
Haven’t had it fully stop a stage for me so far, holding my breath tho for when we get the harder regions back
Kinda wish we had more preset slots
Cause don’t got enough for all the presets I’d want to have more flexible params saved rather than stacking stats

Hop and sol did enough even on this
do you have recording?

I don’t but I could record it by repeating the clear, the round didn’t matter (did it on r4 and the team does nothing with that)

oh cause i managed to clear comfortably with level 130 i think
i want to see if 140 makes a difference

Nice. I too have kept parameters that I wouldn't need to change though some free points are not taken for some battles. Reaching max HP 6 with that though. Good to know even 8 is kinda comfortable

The only stage I actually had to plan much on in kanto was fighting Lorelei, and that’s just Lorelei being Lorelei with evasion hax.
Ended up solving it with redlax + Bea combo though, and just spamming tms till second sync to oneshot the stage
dark osprey
Honestly for that if you have an adrenaline EXed support and Solgaleo with a fighting sync like even Bruno or probably even Korrina you would get through
Mainly deny the left side after the EX support sync and you would reach the second sync before the crit shield
wide adder
Yeah, it’s just awkward with how Lorelei sets up crit shield presync
I ended up bringing Darach there for insurance for that fact, although I can prob fit something to actually help the clear in that slot next time
dark osprey
Yeah. Darach does counter well for her gimmicks at least

Just a shame that -eva is like all he does in the stage and removing shields

Blue should be plenty tho 
odd shore
Who should be supporting him?
north crown
I usually run SSElesa and Lucian for a general pool comp

Then the next best choice would be Skyla. I would've said you would be lacking damage if this was pre expanded Blue grid, but I'm pretty sure he would be able to decimate the board.
odd shore
And I have no idea what things to choose for master mode since I either die too quickly or can barely do any damage
odd shore
Does this grid look right?
north crown
If you want a beefy first sync, you will NEED "TM Ramp Up 2"
sharp willow
also pick up that highlighted tile, it costs 0 energy
north crown
Also you're neglecting the sync move multiplers, which are all the new grid nodes to the right
I would run something like this instead: https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/2100/1800?s=5&l=140&r=5&p=0&a=0&g=AAECAwQFBgkdHyIkJikuLzAxMjM0NQ

What is the move order with her? never used her as a dark type
TM > brutal swing > water shuriken 2x > quick attack > brutal swing ?

I know you beat the stage, but I’m just gonna say this for future reference:
Your queuing until sync wasn’t fast/consistent enough, so you had a chance to sync before you were taken out
Second, Sydney prefers to use Brutal Swing cause it’s more powerful. And he actually prefers first sync as well cause Mega. Both of those increase his damage output.
hidden monolith
I know you beat the stage, but I’m just gonna say this for future reference:
Yo...
But Shauna is EXed
I think my queuing was fixed on the try I cleared it
rotund lagoon
But Shauna is EXed
Yes. But have you read Sydney’s kit? Damage dealers that can Mega or have form changes do prefer to sync first.
keen jasper
The only ones I've heard that want first sync is Diantha/Gardevoir
rotund lagoon
There’s more than that.
paper summit
Blue, Diantha, Karen and I guess Lisia? depends on what you wanna do with her
there is also Zinnia if you want to use her for Dragon Ascent
and Wally if you want to use Close Combat
hidden monolith
The only ones I've heard that want first sync is Diantha/Gardevoir
base blue too afaik
rotund lagoon
May is also a good choice if she’s the main dealer.
Also pairs with form changes are Zerena, SS Lusamine for example
hidden monolith
didn't know about sidney, I thought that Shauna's sync buff is more valuable
mellow linden
I think in Sidney’s case it can depend on the specific team

I do recommend at least trying Brutal Swing for DPS next time as he relies on that for damage.

Your gameplay started out great, even with the missed queue you made up for it with the flinch denials.

Either would be fine for R2/R4

Eh, Water is one of the most stacked types in the game, it’s not a huge deal

Now to figure out teams to run, outside of the easy 3k points Rat team.

Any recommended order to do these in?
paper summit
buddy, you gotta remember that depends a tad bit on your teams
noble plaza
Fair. I meant more so anyone I should avoid for certain rounds?
paper summit
I guess you could avoid Olivia and Acerola on round 1 since they use special moves, and if you are not using a poison immune tank (or able to cure it) for Kahili then avoid her on round 4, the Salamence has Toxic and Go Viral 9

Rip I saw this too late and now im doing R4 Kahili 
I do have supports that can deal with poison though
I usually use Olivia and Kukui for rock though so I guess I need to replace Kukui with someone else
I do have 1/5 Gordie and Lodge Raihan though but I haven't used either yet
swift swan
lodge raihan's a support
north crown
my flying types and EXs,gloria and may are saved for kukui and maxie is for oliv...
tbh, Kahili might be your best bet. In her grid, she has:
- 4 Sync Move nodes
- Haymaker
- SEUP on TM
- ig DC4 on Peck (Doesn't matter all that much)
You should be able to nuke mid presync, especially if you got a Support EX at hand.

Flying/Rock/Ground in one week is pretty bad. Good luck mates.

Post PB blue solved any non Wise entry X2 flying weak tbfh
Ground without Naomi as a new account suuuucks
noble plaza
who should I use vs kahili? It's R4. I usually use Olivia and Kukui but the Toxic and Burn makes me nervous
noble plaza
lodge raihan's a support
whoops my bad
I already used Ingo btw but I still have Bertha
mellow linden
If you're concerned about statuses you can either adjust the Support or just reset if a status happens (I actually forgot that the Salamence has that stuff because it never came up during my Kahili clear this week, so it's definitely not guaranteed)
noble plaza
I wasn't sure which support to use in either case tbh
mellow linden
Could do something like Bertha + Olivia + Sonia and see how that works out

I run SSACynnthia/Bertha/Olivia against her on r3.
noble plaza
Yeah 15k
nova imp
I mean I can send u my team for 13k
if that works for u
I used an offtype for it
not that hard honestly
but if you want to use on type
you can do roark
and also r4 right?
so you can use a sleep setter
