I wonder how much Gloria will dela to Diantha
a lot
And now that there's perma field effect, I can use Sonia
No wait, Thorton doesn't have preemptive field
hence why my team. Can keep lowering her defenses, and it powers up Solgaleo's Brainteaser tile, 22k a Sunsteel Strike lets go
Screech like mad o/
Well, Clemont also has Spark to para
mY fAiRy TeAm Is ShIt
Literally a pure f2p fairy team 
Fairy is still in a better place than ground and bug 
True that
Lol the furisode girl really hates them dragons
Winona or May
this week's 15k was easier, but I got lucky with malva, houndoom missed one decisive heat wave and I won
doing siebold off-type was awful
Hate his match 😅
I dont have a good bug pokemon
you can use a strong offtype dmg dealer, and bring a Bug type as fodder for the medal
Actually, why do I even need Sonia or Lenora? My Gloria is 5/5 so she has Defense Crush 9
While Thorton handles paralyzing
I’m using Steven Colress and Celesteela for the champ and I’m struggling really hard
Wait Diantha has healthy advantage? 
It's made for Colress
Oh no wonder
Colress is a nice counter to Diantha, but i dont know why you are using Celesteela there
Yeah, you need a physical buffer
Special defense buff
Solgaleo is a better pick than Steven, tbh
Failes epicly 😂
Solgaleo also ignores the damage reduction she has
🤔 So maybe i should try i totally new formation
can you show your roster and unused types on the medal?
Medals left
Normal
Ghost
Poison
Ground
So any suggestions?
Skyla would be best TBH
Since Sol already ignores damage reduction you can use colress for screech
Fanfare, defense and speed buffs
should take note that Solgaleo needs power boost to afford Skyla
can you show us your roster?
Well solgaleo indeed made it so easy
Colress has AoE crit buff if enemy is paralyzed
he is already busy with paralyzing and debuffing defense
I mean, it can be done like this:
Thunder Wave ---> Mirror Shot ---> Mirror Shot ----> Mirror Shot ---> Screech ---> Screech
Colress has no DPS anyways
Why click mirror shot at all
Diantha has defense buffs multipliers
Because he has crit buff when hitting an enemy that is paralyzed
you would die first before reaching Screech phase
and his crit buffing is slow as hell
That’s not what he should focus
better bringing a support
especially when Diantha is more dangerous with defense buffs
These are the 5*s
Show everything
don't ignore 3 and 4* please
Medals
Yes finished wikstorm
Used
Ss Blue
Ss red zard
Elesa
You can this team first. I'm sure your Cyrus is gridded with Hydro Pump tiles and Critical Focus
You use them in other teams
You can use your best units along with the missing types for filler
Well, try again!
Malva has very strong moves, so there's a bit of RNG involved to pray Malva doesn't spam them
make sure to change the weather
Yeah, especially Overheat + Daunless
Which means you can't cheese with the enemy having +3 stats with Haze
😅
I'm trying to team build rn and I need the ice, electric, and fighting medals. I built the teams successfully, but I didn't manage to fit an electric in. Is it even possible?
volkner over lucian
you need status for diantha
that Diantha team will scream for gauge
yeah lana doesnt do anything for raihan either
change Lana to someone else who provides speed buffs
Would this work?
raihan misses a crit buff but i think it should work
you want defense debuffs on Diantha or else she hits hard
can you show us your Steel type roster?
You shoulda seen my latest bug clear

bruh you used the best bug type pairs in the game nothing too impressive
oh you have colress
Colress + Hop + an Electric type should work
Also no reason SS Gladion need an SS Blue carry
eh i mean gauge
hes not that great at it
Hard mode?
This is the current state of the teams
A bit nitpicky, but I suggest replacing Colress to SQUEEZE in an extra type for the meal. Hop should be tanky enough to withstand a majority of attacks, even after opponent sync (or 2).
I only have three type medals remaining. Is there a benefit to using multiple types beyond that?
not necessarily, tho I just optimize as much as possible on the first week to minimize the chance of failing
finishing 12 is usually fine (unless you're leaving out some problematic / rarer types
Love my new toy 
Are my teams fine for this week?10k left,15k right
Wikstrom is anti special
Hop being Fire weak with only +1 spdef will have a hard time tanking
SS Gladion doesn't need extra special debuffer
Siebold has Sentry Entry x2, so Geeta's performance is not really good, replace her with a terrain setter
That better?(Ik red is also physical but as a rat I think he could do it)
You could always just rely on his Speical GMAX move 
in the worse case scenario, flinch stall away 
which one
Malva seems like gauge problems
the 10k team
the 15k team is already questionable from the start
lysandre only needs to hit once tbh
That team is still mad slow
im tryna find out if B Hydro Pump with -2 rebuff,+5 SMUN,-6 SpD,rain and support ex can on tap
Don’t tell me you’re gonna click metal sound
i am

hilbert 3x metal sound and 1x attack move
Pick hilbert or lysandre
thats -6 spd and -2 rebuff
Not both
You’re wasting him
you should move him to Siebold tbh
If you’re not using him for damage then swap him
ok
He’s too good to just be wasted for utility
atp, just use Dana to spam SEUP
Anyways I'll switching Hilbert to siebold
He makes the stage a cakewalk.
LDawn/SSHilhert/Leavanny. Even tho I messed up quadqueue, Leavanny was able to take down mid by the second sync and then clean the sides with SSHilbert.
I finished my experiment
You know what's the most surprising thing in my Siebold clear?
What?
My H. Viola survived Siebold's sync
Time to tey and fail again 😂
Drasna was so easy when i used gladion
😂
Last week i suffered
Now i got the normal medal who would u suggest for tank to this team
Ground or poison or ghost or bug
Is scyther good tank?
Bugsyther is an ok-ish tank. Can't take much but isn't a paper thin wall too.
Guys i need tips for allister
I use 1 shadow ball then spam sludge bomb?
And max ooze
Or am i doing it wrong.
?
Seibold is ruining me
Conquered malva
Lol he is next 😅
And will have to use not the best characters for medals
Allister the one i cant use and others 😂
Poison, ghost and ground are left 🤔
What do u think?
Or bertha instead of courtney
Do you only miss poison/ghost/ground?
Also which e4 have you left?
Against Siebold? No. Keep Alister and Koga. Add another support. We need Hau/Mudscale for champion
How good is MC and alcremie for this?
They do lots of things, shine at nothing. Try them.
Just asking since I’m planning a team around sycamore and SS gladion
I used Sycamore/SSGladion/Azumarill. You need some defense buffs to survive sync.
Also the more TMS and no-gauge-moves the better, given how swallow your speed will be until first sync.
And you need to attack with SSGladion right away in order to get -6 spa for max buddy damage.
SSGladion makes this fight a breeze
For Malva all you have to do, is change the weather. Siebold isn't anything special. Just too tanky.
Gg regardless
Yeah don’t get me wrong just use rain dance
But the two other Pokemon with there hyper voice and such can still do damage
Also for future, don't use Hau and Sonia at the same team. They do the same exact thing. Pair each of them with a spd buff support or a second damage dealer.
I just made hop first target and just kept him alive for the free revenge attacks
Sonia was just there buffs and move gauge boost she gives through potion
Since rose just sucks up meter
That was her only job
Starmie is pretty chunky. 21k was half his health
think this should be enough for Special CS? D:
Adaman SSLybi lmao
last time
it was SS Erika
while SS Lyra + Meganium basically live for a long time
this should be ok for special cs
yes, should be
tho Kiawe doesn't contribute much on NY Wallace team
you can replace him with Flannery for stronger Hoenn Analysis boost
i only threw kiawe on there for that initial gauge but good point
Oh dang I forgot about fire weak CS
Having a bit of trouble w/ this team
Hilbert is not really good at defensive side, you should change him
or replace May with Winona, she has flinch
change him then, Nessa doesn't ask much support on buffing side
I was able to do it with SS Blue, Nessa and Winona
But now I'm having issues with using BP Valerie vs Drasna. Drasna is pretty bulky
do you have a Fairy Zone setter?
Yes. I have Volo, I have Egg Sylveon too but I haven't tried with them yet
Anywhere I can find a summary of the gimmick of the kalos E4?

cant see any summary in the pins
except for the week's parameters
which are wrong btw XD nvm read it wrongly
Opponent Kits & Stats
it's on the first message
the parameters are not wrong either
that just gives the raw data, was wondering if there's a summary of anything

Like, I can't see any gimmick for dresna unless I use lucas by accident, and I am not finding any gimmick with siebold.
press Skill tab
yea, i am reading through it
Why not use PoMaTools?
then they should tell you everything
dresna have a bunch of dragon zone powerups, but nothing in skills that causes a dragon zone
so unless I use lucas, not sure what the gimmick is
they are reading it
She sets Dragon zone one turn before sync
have you scrolled down in the Move tab?
Ready to burn things. Just using my old high score team lol
ty, just now, saw the dragon zone
but yea, was wondering if there's a 1 line summary for each XD
also, how do you know that she does that 1 turn before sync?
from experience?
Because of her sync countdown
?
when the sync countdown shows 1, she uses Dragon Wish
so thats what that symbol mean
This is the sync countdown I'm talking about
i know that XD, I was asking how'd you learn that she uses that move right before sync
other than actually going into battle and seeing her do that XD
Yeah, it's as Trout said
yea, just learned it now XD, thought that symbol meant that was the sync move the whole time
while here, was just wondering, is there a tutorial for what everything in the pomas tool means or how to read through it?
there is none, because the info is already obviously shown
There's a section called "Information and Help"
just read them
Volo isn't ex'd
uhh, then just 2 questions, what does mitigation mean? and what are the numbers under status conditons mean? like does 9 for badly poisoned means she's susceptible to it?
Mitigation means how much less they take from those effects
then you should time Fairy Zone properly
or just use egg Sylveon because Drasna uses Dragon Wish right before sync
And the numbers on the status effect is also the mitigations
so for drasna for example, lowering her attack has a worse effect than lowering her def?
so should focus on lowering her def?
The lower the number, the lesser the mitigation
So this team is jot dealing any dmg to seibold
And unfortunately i need to do poison /ghost for the medals
It means that Drasna is more susceptible to attack and special attack debuffs
ah ic ic
thanks for the explanations
definitely help make sense of all these shorthands XD
What round is this?
Hard 1
Round what?
Hard 1
2nd week
the round parameter is also available in hard mode
Out of the four fights, how many have you won?
Been awhile I forgot lol
is Siebold your 3rd opponent?
Or is thir the first?
He said hard 1 so I assumed round 1
4th
lol what
4th round Siebold, hmmm, that's rough
He is the last of the E4
His attacks are mostly special
Last for them
Last for me as i had strong Pokémons for the other elites 😂
Gladion evaporated drasna
You can separate your other types for Diantha
Like ground on Siebold and poison on Diantha
I have 3 medals needed in the last 2 fights
Ghost
Poison
Ground
For Diantha, you can use a poison unit since she has Healthy Advantage
Thought Allister and koga would complement each other
But i was wrong we dont deal any dmg at all 😅
Status
Oh right he exists
I think Bertha would be best
She has sandstorm and she can buff your team's defensive stats
And also crit
She can support a little
What I said above is her support, but she's still a tech unit
So who would be good next to her?
dang. i've had her at 2/5.... interesting 😮
Despite being 1/5 only, I'd use Burgh on Siebold
How is zinnia so bad?
2021 unit
she's not bad, it's just she is a bit hard to support
Oh? Didn't use Burgh? Well, onto Diantha
So we have a points guide for the Red CS?
You mean what params to take?
Yeah
It'll be the same as regular CS. Check pins for presets, adjust them to your needs
any advice on beating Wikstrom in CSMM this week?
you have to erase his defense buffs. Event Victor is a good pick for that
what team and params are you using?
Show your roster please
so i'll just Haze and hit him hard afterwards?
And the move levels?
Well, that was a crit by Bugsy so I guess not using him to clear
Bugsy only has the sync move, his DPS is atrocious, and the sync move isn't even that great considering that is a striker mega with no 6ex
Guzma is much better
Here.
It'a better showing your whole roster, but this is okay for mow
Isn't Bugsy phys damage
Sentry Entry x2 
Aurochs out here taking Bugsy against SE X2 and 29k HP
If you don't want to ontype: NC Rosa, SS Roxie and Event Victor
Even Springo (or Spremmet one of the two I forgor) struggles against this, what more Bugsy 
It was the sync move 
It’s worth a try
EnTry indeed
ok i'll try this vs Wikstrom, thanks
SS Steven also works
you mean as a replacement to SS Roxie?
Is sir fetch better than gallade?
ooof, almost did SS Lyra against NC Red with giving them impervious ooof.
ah wells, done, managed to get to 3200 pts against NC Red o_o
Maybe you picked wrong parameters, his sync isn't the bestest, but it can't be that bad
Did you boost his attack and evasion +6? Did you mistakenly took the 80% physical damage reduction?
Params ain't gonna help against Sentry Entry x2 
Yes but even twice that damage is still ridiculous for a sync move
Reader, I did not pick the wrong parameters
I finally candied SS May from 2-3
Smh imagine doubting Aurochs' skill
Grimsley was buffing too much sigh
Sirfetchd is overall better
Bugsy is pretty terrible so I don't expect him clearing sentry entry X2 3k Kalos, but still I wouldn't expect him doing like 3% with his sync
He still has respectable attack stat and a 100% sync multiplier, yes mega striker non 6ex nuke definitely hurts, but still there's something off
Is at least base 5★ and 5/5?
If it is base 3★ 3/5 I could see him doing that pitiful sync damage with some hp parameters
There are no HP parameters and not base 3*
Let's not forget this is the Aurochs we're talking about 
Let Bugsy low roll
It's long time since I've used bugsy, but I don't remember him being that bad
He's not usually that bad! He's just clearly bad now!
I mean bugsy was never good, but i don't remember him being bad eggmon level of bad
I mean base 508 attack when mega at base 5★ with Blindspot, even with that bad 192 + 50 sync BP can't be so terrible
The real problem is he being Bugsy
Not saying that he can clear it, since his DPS is non existent, and his sync isn't even 6ex, but like 3% on sync
The sync damage was the tiny red spot or the whole black bar?
Because if it did like 15% then i can get it
Burgh gaming ;o
Bugsy is bad, siebold is bulky and has sentry entry X2, then 15% makes sense
And at this point I think it was the full black bar, because otherwise who else did the rest of the damage if bugsy did like 2% on sync
I Just saw that tiny red bar and I thought it was the sync damage
Sad that they tried to build bugsy kind expecting him to ko stuffs with fell stinger to get buffs, but he's pretty unlikely to ko anything that isn't almost KO'd with unboosted fell stinger (or even fully boosted)
Yeah really bad design, can't imagine it even worked with the full force style battles
Maybe it worked in Early halls of battle villa
Stuffs like super victory and victory lap wouldn't be that terrible in MM if it actually had a decent DPS move to back it up
Maybe if it had something like 3 pmun stacks on entry and a 3 bar move I could see him working in rush comps with 6ex
I guess now his main utility is an extra clear against azelf In gauntlet
rip ssmorty silver and lyra cant deal enough dmg to clear glacia pre sync at half hp and 3k points. had to use rats and bird for free clear
I used NCBlue/NCLeaf/Serena sleep chain combo to clear...
any tips for koga?
Idk how to stop the def boost,Im trying with silver, ss hilda and tina
Try to kill him before the crit shield
The def boosts are ignored by critical hits. The real obstacle is the critical shield before the first sync
You should replace Silver with who can setup sun on demand
And sync with an EX support
Boy
Everytime, every single time its always fire Glacia, who was the intended character again?
Or just the idea of facing glacia
Cause she hits way too hard even without sun for some baffling reason, seriously why can't they just nerf her?
I… wanna guess SS Morty?
He's gonna be used against NC red
I did something stupid for my NC Red fight lol
No sun on demand BUT can you guess why that doesn’t matter?
||All three can burst out of frozen status themselves LMAO||
koga is very tanky at 3k points maxx boostd charizard sync kanto analysis doesnt deal over 50%
I'm just losing it here
took 3 resets to clear
Koga’s real problem is if you leave them alone too long
Before he syncs he sets up Crit shield and that’s just bad times
You want to know how bad I have it? This team cannot handle a hit even when sun is up and +6
Sounds like a parameter problem honestly
I mean
Look at that Glacia team lol
You think that reached +6 both defenses? Nope
Tell me how much luck did you get for stat leech to drop spatk?
Share your fire team guys
You can check the #1010274591601598555 for their Fire Pasio Stadium
nc rosa is more of a offensive support than defensive, her def buffs are slow
Like literally I can't use ssmorty cause he is meant to be used against ncred
But even one else can't take a hit at all
not really with perma field you only need 1 sun for red
He's susceptible to Burn at least.
Maybe it's your param?
I want to scream, so badly
Would unhindered bypass crit shield?
OK I tried throwing in ex lodge gladion for free 100 param point +3 everything cause haze
Uh huh
Turns out a single blizzard still does half health after losing all those buffs
Just reset
yeah NC Red's Blizzard is nasty ;-;
oh just Glacia? yikes.
I'm only on round 2
If you want help share the parameters, team or a recording so there's context to go off of. Complaining into a void is going to get you nowhere
Hmm my Round 3 was against Glacia
Team was SS Morty, NC Leaf and SS Red
Anyone else did full mono fire for this Special 15k CS? I'm struggling hard with NCRed, I might've boned myself with my previous teams 
that way her icy wind / blizzard didnt do a lot of damage once you -6 her SP.ATK
check your parameter
I recommend you pre sync Glacia, learn to quadqueue, I know you usually post sync but it's not gonna work here when you can't use all your strongest fire units for 1 stage like normal CS
I think i only did 2 fire mono teams.
I used this team for glacia if it helps
You don't necessarily have to have sun
Just not hail
What the hell is up with Malva’s Pyroar? Nearly deletes one of my mons on the first damn turn AND has AOE Will o Wisp??
your tank needs Flameproof if you're letting her usse Will o Wisp 😮
Be sure to bring status shield too
I recommend melony, and fight her in the permashield stage
replace the sun, she has go viral 9 so she will burn your whole team
Well, I’m half right, I guess. I’m using May/Swampert to use rain but I guess she’s too slow?
May is fine
May just needs support
I already used Melony as well, which was admittedly stupid.
She can't?
she has Flameproof in grid o.o
I think I have Kris. Just not built yet.
Oh lol i thought it was because of rain lmao
Oops ping sorry
Not kris, ss kris
What about Lana and Araquanid? Doesn’t she reduce fire damage for the whole team?
Oh I def don’t have her.
I’ll have to run a flameproof tank, a healer, and May, I guess.
She has fire guard yes
She does, but she's not particularly helping May there
Do you have a 3/5 base Kris?
Also a rainer
May already has Rain Dance
May is the rainer unless she needs to focus on Muddy Water instead.
Oh right
I have very few SS or champion pairs just yet. lol
Can you show your pairs?
If you have her ^ she will slap Malva, she's one of the best gen pools and definitely the best accessible water type
I thought it was Cyrus
Here are my waters. Apparently I do have 3/5 base Kris. I just haven’t used her so her grid is empty.
You're set, Kris + May + Support to buff Kris
Yay
I also have EX power boost base Cyrus if that helps. 🤷♂️
I see Hilbert
Now we just have to bypass will o wisp
But will o wisp
If you can pre sync soon enough that won't be an issue, but otherwise find someone with flameproof yeah
Unless flameproof?
Idt so
Hilbert also isn't that tanky
We can’t search our rosters by passives yet, can we?
You can using a Bot here
I think I've permanently lost this
ignore wow, you don't need flameproof if you kill them fast enough
I'm swapping params left and right and glacia still hits hard for anyone I try
You've got way too much bulk
I started out using Morty/Misdreavus as my support/healer but I found out there’s a Houndoom with Dark Pulse so that was a bust.
Lana then?
Man
Try Lana
There's nothing else I can use cause she hits way too hard
Lana kris and may
That is a dangerous combination of max hp and strength and attack multiplier lol
This may sound counterproductive, but pick atk parameters
Over hp
Marley, Blaine and SSRed worked PostSync for me
have you tried defensive buffing
On r2
post sync koga sounds so miserable why
Fire weak Glacia yeah? Can you send me a quick snap of your fire roster + supports?

Basically stall parameters but burn+trap 
Imma just say my entire fire roster is bad, and ssmorty cannot be used cause he's necessary for ncred
Koga has tighten and toughen up right
and crit shield post sync
which is why i say ew to post sync koga
Pre sync, actually
Post sync has Condition Shield
Not post
He puts up Crit shield before he syncs
Fuck him
Just right before you can sync
Oh my god
Well let me know if you decide to send it & I can try help. Otherwise not much we can do hey
hes fun too
You can use any weather, not sun necessarily
I just did
Oh the image didn't load okay let's see
Even my roster for weather in general is bad
5/5 EX Hilda is right there
SS Morty is reserved yea? Can I see your other supports
Have you used gordie?
One blizzard and dead
erm with those dps options you can just run 2 supports to help with survival
His bulk is just bad
Just reset tbh
I asked if you had used them
Blizzard will hit hard
No matter your setup
Pray to rnjesus she doesn't use Blizzard or icy wind
She could just lose already, that'd be great
3k = use busted units or reset, reset, and reset
but you have to get the param and team building first
even with busted unit its not always free especially on newer regions
glacia always gives me issues
Hilda, Gordie and any supp should easily one-shot fire weak 1st sync
because permanent def buffing and crit shield pre sync
Bird is already used
basically if you take too long you do no damage
dps harder
you dont want to see crit shield
Kill him before he puts up shield
bruh glorias the harder ones
I used max moves to beat that fucker dead
I'm waiting for this to fail so badly
You're wasting Acerola
it’ll be fine
do other battles need it though
its been a while since the last one so maybe red does?
Maybe if you replace acerola with someone that buffs sp.def
And that was after at least one of his tm, and sun up
i mean you probably just need a special defense buffer at that point
one use of sun should be enough and -2 rebuff on mid should be enough to wipe
glacia is always just problematic with aoe spam
But then how am I supposed to both get +2 sync buff and have sun before she syncs?
-2 rebuff is a 50% damage multiplier for fire
you could probably just sync with hilda first and deny the sides
Tracker would help yes
tbh
most of the time in csmm i dont actually supp sync
cuz most units are strong enough to either one shot or get close to one shotting
That team is not gonna pre sync
There's your problem tbh, it's a good team but i don't think it's good to the extent it can decimate koga before Crit shield
Red takes too many turns to buff himself, that leads to damage loss
Exactly
Replace Marley with an offensive support
Replace red with ss hilda
Or that. But you should plan your teams out first in case you need her in another team
Then it's better to plan ahead first
I think first round is when you'll have trouble quadqueueing
Craft teams by yourself, then we will give feedback on improvements
I used r3 personally or r4
R3 to debuff him more, r4 to spam specials on him
Maybe r2 too
It's up toy tobyou really
Nc nate for unova circle?
And passives?
I see
Locking yourself into arbitrary restrictions is only hurting you. Anyhow here's a clear, far from optimal gameplay and L-Dawn can be substituted for something more premium
EX base Hilda so based
Arch id like to thank you for half hp
also draining kiss is st so that also helps
Very much a good param for my 3k runs
I didn't switch my params around, when you're going for first sync you can pick up some CD and reduce their offense as much as possible so the blizzards don't hurt as much. Also quad the max instead of delaying sync like I did
You can also just go for a denial support, they have 3/5 Elaine
I used this order for full 3k fire mono
...until NCRed stage, I've been trying so many times to stay mono, but jesus Brave Bird and Blizzard are dummy strong. I feel dirty now.
Yeah it's still not enough
Why do you not have sun up?
That's losing 50%
It shows hail.there
I was tired from 250 attempts with Kiawe, Ethan and VLucas
I was tired and pissed, okay? 
i dont think i can monotype if i wanted to
1/5 ss may probably cant do enough for 3k solo unfortunately
I mean in a way, ncblue, red and ash are kinda
Fire 
Idk why you won't drop the HP, see my params in the video
I think it would be doable saving SSMorty for r5
The HP is stopping that clear
But then what else am I supposed to use that doesn't hurt me badly?
Hm?
Oh for the glacia stage?
Well i hated her spamming Blizzard so i spammed sing right back lol
probably sleep denial

OK yeah this is straight up impossible
Maybe I'll try to swap some of them for full fire 3k, but for now these work just fine
They did require a bit of resets tho (except glacia)
Seriously when can they just nerf glacia
Just nerf her attack stats, that's all we need
In regular CS usually the champion is typically the easiest, but not in this one, I got overconfident and the leftovees weren't enough
Match retries
Mainly for MPRs
Or early burns
Hoping mpr for kiawe is pain
Seriously wtf
I would like to try saving SSMorty (and maybe SSHilda) for NCRed, round 1 and 2 would stay the same (they were already pretty tight)
Then maybe slotting SSMay and Kiawe for r3
With Flareon Eggmon maybe
But I would have to test that a bit
Seriously what am I supposed to do?
Struggle bug
There are also literal parameters in the video
one special attack debuff is doing fuck all vs glacia
^^
Honestly idk
Since you're going for first sync you can even take some Max CD and further reduce bulk
Back again and struggling with Siebold for the second time
Why is red here
Do you have Burgh gridded?
Crit rate
I know he brings super effective but you can do better units
Gridded burgh has crit eye
on tm
which is not what you want to be clicking
Ok
I'll look into that. Not sure if I have enough since I gridded a few units yesterday
idk why brycen is there though he just does nothing lol
Ice medal
Ice medal
Type medal I'd guess
i mean im pretty sure you can find someone else besides brycen
Yeah melony
Well
Arch was lucky in that video for glacia to use those kind of attacks
It all boils down to that now
like i said you need good rng for 3 items in a row
I made some suggestions earlier did you see those?
I've been at this for a few hours now
Try Elaine for some flinch denials
Elaine is meant for ncred as well
Ok I subbed out brycen for melony and gridded crit eye on burgh using all of my sync orbs
? You do not need SS Morty & Elaine for NC Red
Fire cs will be here for a while
Good luck!
Yes I do, morty sets sun and defenses while elaine flinches and drops stats

Lmao, well good luck
Such obstinance

Because I had two crit buffers now, I swapped out Red for Lana for group water guard, the fact she's EXd, and propelling strike
Congrats
I legit almost had it
im gonna be real honest if you’re not willing to take other people’s advices here i think you either need to stop complaining about it or take a break
Now who will you use to fill normal slot
But the recoil

i literally just said you have 2 weeks
come back to it later
if you’re not having fun while playing it take a break
otherwise you’re just going to make yourself hate it
I already have hated glacia from the beginning, but I still want it done now
Nah it’s just them
It's either you get it done today (you follow all our advice, bar none) or don't
Something's got to give, but at the end of the day we're not the ones who have an uncleared stage here
Your call
well i havent started yet
if you chose to not follow our advice, there is no point of asking for help into complaints here
Cs doesn’t have to be annoying if you don’t want it to be
but thats cuz i spent the last half hour on lucy
(easiest ub by a long shot too btw)
3/5 courtney makes it so much easier
Look on the flip side, many guys here have cleared cs Because of this
You'll be fine
Disregard - it doesn't have to be like that we're always here to help if need be 
Also you mentioned wanting to copy my teams right? My advice is try to understand the intricacies of cs because half of the fun of cs is creating your own teams
^^
Except I am, I'm doing the exact same params, the same team, all that
And some of the supports don’t help the dps 
Like what’s Evelyn or kiawe doing
yeah marley has no offensive buffing
kiawe has mixed buffing
She does
evelyn is the real why support there
i mean she has tse1 but
yeah gross
Hype up and something else
I know what they do because i study them lol. Over time it comes from experience. Fret not though, the helpers here are willing to help
My limited units can be replaced easily, you just need to know what they do
A limited unit is the equivalent of an eggmon if you don’t know what they do
Leon is just a beeg damage fire
Greedent is just sonia but better
Mina is a tank that brings weather
If you want, i will add explanations to my thread next time so you can follow my thought process
Reverse is also true
Eggmons op
what are some weather sync pairs i can use for malva?
Conceptually, I feel like the Leafeons and Bulu should be able to handle Glacia 15k, and yet...
Anything that isn’t sun
Winona and/or May
They should, Adaman + SS Erika + SS Acerola yeah?
Yeah
Your biggest issue there is going to be Acerola tanking, since Malva has quite strong special moves, but the damage will be there
Yeah, Acerola folds pretty quickly, which is where I think it all falls apart
Isn’t she fire weak
Not fire weak
Glacia, not Malva






Type:
Weak: 
HP: 611
ATK: 200 | DEF: 288
SPA: 132 | SPD: 288
SPE: 244
Poké Fair
Acerola & Palossand
Acerola & Banette
Acerola (Fall 2020) & Mimikyu
Tank Support (3/5)
+ First Aid / Pep Rally
+ Adrenaline / Pep Rally (4/5)
+ Adrenaline / Punishing Strike (5/5)
+ No Quarter / Punishing Strike (5/5)
+ Adrenaline / Full Tank (5/5)
Lucky Skill: Head Start 1, Adrenaline 1, Defense Crush 2, Vigilance
(if not picked on grid)
Oh
Hmm that does make sense, have you tried reducing some of the offense to see if that helps?
Unfortunately Acerola doesn't do a great job of being a special tank 
I'll give it a shot -- I'm a little worried about increasing her bulk too much because Hoenn, but there may be some wiggle room
Yeah Malva is out on business
Adaman & Erika are really strong so I think you'll be alright, Malva also has relatively normal starting HP (21k) compared to the others
Lol im down to helping newbies out it's nbd
Thanks, I'll give it a shot!

alright, i have may here (this team is only tentative and is subject to change), im just looking for a good support and strike sync pair but the only water strike sync pairs i have are cyrus and kris 🫠
What is flannery doing with SS red
Ok, firstly, level up your units please
yeah, i was planning to do that
May only
Someone to help red
yep, leveled her up to 132
You're going to do Koga without someone to use Defog?
So he isn’t spending 3 turns of setup
Not necessarily
You don't need to level up that far for future reference btw, it'll be quite exhausting on your resources - for now 120-125 is a good stopping point
You want someone that'll bypass Crit shield
Either you use units that will kill him before he sets it up
Or defog
i barely use my resources so they’ve been piling up 😭
I suggest the former because defogging will waste a turn that should be used for sync
Ah that's okay then, as long as you're not short on them, or starting to be
There's literally no unit that bypasses crit shield
.
It almost sounded like there's a unit that directly ignores crit shield
.
I didn't say unit, did i
Here
Yes i fail to see no mention of units there
If you guys bother to read the next post after that one you'll see what i mean
Defog removes the shield
Removes all shields, even the permanent ones (that you picked in parameters)
Okay let's start all over
Crit shield is your pain point for koga
Two ways to work around it:
Kill him before crit shield
Y'all try not to confuse them like that 
The stuck up is on the wording "bypass". TLDR; Defog will remove crit shield from the field, so it's a form of bypass and you'll be able to crit normally.
That's all you need to know, dw about the rest
I assume the team that he meant was a copy of mine, granted that team managed to do it post crit screens, but I don't think it's noob friendly
what’s recommended for drasna? i just beat malva
Fairy damage dealers
And also someone who can lower her offensive buffs
ok am i just losing it or is standfast not working as intended?
cause hilda is taking so much recoil
Share your grid
How many of the Steadfast nodes did you grid?
Don't bother with the bottom sync nodes that's too expensive
Although that grid should be fine
I don't see how you'd be taking that much recoil
its glacia, she is just making everything bs
I had the absolute weirdest Glacia run ever
who did you use cause i am losing it here
Mine was fun
I ended up going with Penny + Blaine + Serena and it was something wacky
ive tried so many others i can, im right now trying with penny but icy wind does too much
SS hilbert and gordie
Triple fire rebuff is murder
I really should remember to use hilbert more
It wasn’t Sleep stall proper, but Hypnosis definitely helped with the clear
i swear why couldnt wikstrom be the one here
Granny forgot to take her nap
im just going insane
When was the last special cs
If you're struggling with Glacia you could just bump up the power level on your team since Red is pretty easy as long as you set Sun
Or just lower the point value if you're doing 3k on Glacia currently
Red is a cakewalk in comparison
acerola, blaine, and sserika do literally nothing, i have no able to withstand her hits from rain or sand
by the way it looks, i flat out lose for good
I would save NCLeaf for either Glacia or Red
Probably glacia
ok im about to go completely stupid and try hilda, gordie, and lenora
welp that was a dud, i hate glacia so much
im now confident this has been over 80 times
You are replacing Glacia's hail before you sync right?
yes im using gordie's max right before the sync
Max Flare?
the problem is she still hits way too hard over +4 spdef and the sync itself is doing FA
why cant my fire squad ever be good?
What round are you facing her?
What's your team again?
Show Fire roster please
Earlier picture
and before it gets stated, no ssmorty cannot be used
he is meant for ncred
I mean, he could since the Red fight is pretty easy as long as you bring Sun in general
Where are you going to use Redzard?
on nc red
Could bring Hilda + Emboar, a tank, and a Sun setter. Hilda's wholly self-sufficient if need be
ive been using hilda constantly
Just make sure the Sun setter can set it at least twice and save one use for after Glacia uses Hail
ive been trying many combos on her and gordie for fire rebuff with some support
