Extreme, Ultimate & Challenge Battles

[stone scarab]

yeah you tank with cheren

the only attacks that actually do damage in this fight are Fissure and Earthquake

eq is hitting him anyway (and getting nullified) and fissure you dodge

[granite sluice]

GLORA IS THE GOATTTTTTT

[primal leaf]

I see. So need to dodge fissure and wide guard Eq?

[stone scarab]

pretty much

[granite sluice]

yep

[sweet fractal]

1/5 Cheren, but lana was the MVP here, just get the 60% mp refresh and use it before opponent’s earthquake or fissure and it’s a guaranteed win

[primal leaf]

Whats his order for doing those moves? The excel sheet doesn't seem to say (or I just can't find it)

[stone scarab]

fissure > brick break > x attack > sync > eq > x attack > sync > fissure > sync > eq > sync

i assume from there it alternates

[primal leaf]

Ok so basically after every sync

Wow he syncs so often

[stone scarab]

if the left side goes down before the x attack it's replaced by a fissure, i assume the same is true of the right side but im not certain

[nimble zenith]

Noland has piercing gaze when stats are lowered?

[short sundial]

can i do any of the challenge the strong battles with these units?

[hearty cedar]

Hildafan123 really spamming pre-sync clears even for Noland

[hearty cedar]

He has p.gaze all the time

[nimble zenith]

Oh yeah that's right

[snow spruce]

dont ALL UBs have perma piercing gaze?

[hearty cedar]

They do

[fading walrus]

Iirc Anabel sides didn't have piercing gaze

[hearty cedar]

Wanna check? Pretty sure they haven't missed a move

[stone scarab]

They did

Every enemy in an UB has Piercing Gaze as a passive

[low coral]

People would def abuse it vs Overheat Arcanine if it could miss

[snow spruce]

8 UB types left..:
Dragon Ghost Dark Poison Fairy Psychic Steel Bug

[hearty cedar]

This is a unique team

I like how the old and forgotten units are coming back out of the woodwork

[hearty cedar]

Dragon could be "lower atk and speed and have zone"

Ghost could be about trapping or sp.def drops

Poison is "poison them"

Fairy would be "drop sp.atk"

Dont know about the others

[snow spruce]

It wouldnt be specifically poison IMO. Would have to be any status

[hearty cedar]

Poison + stat drops?

Like poison + fluid fortification

Bcuz a good chunk of poisons can debuff

Ss roxie, oleana, geeta, klara

[low coral]

Why Atk + Spe drops on Dragon?

And idt they would go for more Speed drop focused UB, at least not so soon

We already have two

[hearty cedar]

Leon

Feels like they'll try to cater to leon too in some way

Burn feels random

Nate and lucas has dragon zone so we could expect that

[low coral]

Well, I could see a drop both defenses one

But Atk + Spe sounds unlikely

[hearty cedar]

True, especially after we just got nita

Dont know how they'll cater to zerena

They probably wouldnt

I meant the gimmicks

[snow spruce]

Dragon doesnt have much anti-gimmicks, they just do damage
maybe debuffs, or negative status change (SS Serena has restrain)

a mandatory zone (similar to replacing enemy weather) is likely IMO

[low coral]

I think cathering to Zerena would be more likely than Leon

But most Zerena gimmick checks are already done in the past, so it would probably be a mix

Mixed damage, status change

It could be something like mixed damage + AoE damage promotion

[snow spruce]

oh yeah mixed damage is a good one for Dragon

[hearty cedar]

I'd actually prefer it if its like that but business wise, it'd be better to cater to leon. Also, leon atleast does things other than dmg giving dena options

[low coral]

As that also benefits Nate

Why to Leon?

[hearty cedar]

Mixed dmg would be awesome

[stone scarab]

negative status change for dragon weak seems reasonably likely to me

[hearty cedar]

Didnt a lot of ppl skip him? Could be great to promote him again

[stone scarab]

though with us not having much in the way of dragon rebuff perhaps not

[low coral]

Uh

[snow spruce]

cater to some BT Leon pokefair ? Nah

[low coral]

UBs don't tend to focus on the least pulled units

[hearty cedar]

Maybe I'm overhyping leon

[low coral]

If anything, it feels the opposite

[stone scarab]

they tend to focus on the big strong MF everyone wanted to pull for more than anything

[low coral]

Tbolt Red on Electric, Irida on Ice, Cheren on Flying, Leaf on Fire, Cerena on Water

[hearty cedar]

But yeah, mixed dmg for dragon would be awesome

[hearty cedar]

Guess rei left a lasting impression on me

[low coral]

But Rei's popular

[shrewd marten]

Rei was not least pulled tf

[stone scarab]

Rei wasn't a particularly skipped character

[shrewd marten]

He was the best sprint unit for a long time

[hearty cedar]

No, i meant a pokefair

[shrewd marten]

He was(is) the best aoe fighting unit

[hearty cedar]

He still is for the most part

[stone scarab]

base sprint i'd say it's him or like, Paulo

[low coral]

Sprint is the least competitive role

I think it's between Rei and Larry

[stone scarab]

sprint is the least common as a base role in general iirc

[boreal abyss]

[hearty cedar]

What I meant to say was when palmer came out I felt like dena wouldnt mind designing ubs around pokefairs too, hence, my thoughts on dragon ub catering to bt leon

[boreal abyss]

hello friends

[stone scarab]

they don't necessarily avoid it

[low coral]

I think Field is more competitive even in proportion

[hearty cedar]

Hola amigo

[low coral]

[stone scarab]

but MFs are the characters they like to base these around more than PFs, Rei is like, the only exception

[boreal abyss]

what we talking in here just curious

[stone scarab]

UB design

[low coral]

There was SS Diantha on Darach, but most due to lack of options

• Silver feels even better than Diantha there now

[hearty cedar]

How the ubs can be designed for the leftover types

[boreal abyss]

i see

[stone scarab]

definitely

[hearty cedar]

I'm kinda convinced that dragon would get mixed dmg. Heck I want it

[stone scarab]

there's also Lucy but ground doesn't have a MF at all yet

unless you wanna count Nita

[hearty cedar]

Lucas for special dmg and nate for physical

Or zerena for special and leon for physical(maybe hassle could come out by then)

[low coral]

Dang, the huge Maxie erasure lol

[stone scarab]

wait

i'm dumb

[hearty cedar]

Was literally typing maxie lol

[stone scarab]

i had my sync pair tracker set to only units i had oop

[hearty cedar]

Even dena forgot about him and decided with adaman(who came later) and courtney

[boreal abyss]

not touching maxie since forever, gotta still candy him to 3/5 i even have archie rolex lol

[stone scarab]

tbf it's a lot easier to design around those kinds of characters to make an interesting fight than the 2021 MF

[boreal abyss]

but that was for HSE

[stone scarab]

not that they succeeded with Lucy necessarily, but thats the logic i think they took

[hearty cedar]

I didnt exr archie, lysandre, zerena, paulo, mix red and few more. I really should start...

[stone scarab]

highly recommend Paulo

[hearty cedar]

Never gonna exr archie anyway

[boreal abyss]

lemme jumpscare you with mine then

[hearty cedar]

Bro's so good. Especially at 4/5

[vagrant bough]

This is insane, the UBs are becoming more and more absurd

[stone scarab]

I love using the rock team bc of him

he's so fun

[hearty cedar]

Dw we have some hilarious ways to beat it

The usual fairy and poison team defeated it too

[vagrant bough]

Piercing blows with guaranteed crits, 10 pmun on hit, piercing gaze fissure and immunity to most statuses

[hearty cedar]

Electric too but thats expected

[vagrant bough]

Still

[hearty cedar]

He can be burned

But yes I do agree that ubs are becoming insane. Thankfully they adjusted his hp

[stone scarab]

i'm a little annoyed that he's immune to literally everything that has even the slightest chance to prevent a move

[low coral]

Noland is prob on the easier side of the UBs

[proud marten]

yeah i was thinking that

[stone scarab]

I feel like Noland only has such low HP because they decided to half sync him

[low coral]

You just don't teambuild for him like other battles

[proud marten]

once you know what to do it's simple

[boreal abyss]

I like his design tbh

[stone scarab]

if he had a regular sync cooldown it would probably be quite a bit higher

[boreal abyss]

pressure stages are fun

[low coral]

Noland is much more of a teambuilding skill check than a gameplay skill check

[vagrant bough]

Even if he’s easy, that ammount of bs in one battle is crazy

[snow spruce]

Noland didnt feel insane tbh. as long as you have any fissure tank and Lana

[hearty cedar]

I genuinely hate nita ub. The only one standing against nc.nate

[stone scarab]

i feel like Noland is solidly in the lower-middle of UBs difficulty wise, easily below Nita/Anabel/Leon though

above Lucy, probably say above Darach

thorton i'm not convinced on

[hearty cedar]

Nita > Leon > Noland > Anabel imo

Noland and Anabel have the same problem of wanting to filter out a good section of units to fullfill the requirements

And nita, leon are like the worst so far

[low coral]

I can't put Noland above Anabel

[hearty cedar]

Fair

[stone scarab]

i dont think it's realistic to put him above Anabel

[uncut drum]

Anabel is tough even when you bring her counters

Sure you can pre-sync but like only a specific team can do it

[hearty cedar]

Ok, nita > leon > anabel > noland. This fine?

[vagrant bough]

Dang, I cant open the spreadsheet on mobile smhmh

[shrewd marten]

Isn’t field just geeta

[stone scarab]

i'd probably put Palmer above him as well but that's a bit more arguable

[shrewd marten]

As in who’s the best

[uncut drum]

I agree

We got a lot more options for Noland, specifically f2p ones

Not so much for Palmer

[low coral]

Field still has pairs like Red, Blue, Wallace, Akari, Giovanni, Gardenia

Sprint has basically those two and Paulo as a competitive level unit, the rest is kinda bad

[shrewd marten]

Yeah but I’d say geeta is like

The best

Not rly close

[low coral]

Because Geeta is also easily above Rei and Larry

[uncut drum]

I wouldn't put Mix Blue and NY Wallace close to Mix red at all

Red is so much better than both of them

[low coral]

If Geeta was in the talk for Rei and Larry, they wouldn't show up either

Even if stuff like Mix Red were, idt they would compete

Field doesn't need their best unit to be better than the best Sprint

[hearty cedar]

Tosakin is enjoying doing ghost runs huh

How many ubs did the ghost team clear?

[kind wasp]

I just needed 1 more flying wish refresh

[snow spruce]

Mix Red = NY Wallace > mix Blue IMO
M. Red is great for debuffing attack/spatk, but I dislike that he needs terrain for his main/only real attack

[shrewd marten]

Btw

[low coral]

I think Mix Red > Mix Blue >= Mix Wallace

[shrewd marten]

Has geeta done everything

Ub I mean

[shrewd marten]

Mix Wallace would go hard ngl

[hearty cedar]

I think I'm the only one here who prefers mix blue over mix red

Imo, mix blue >= mix red > wallace

[shrewd marten]

The most out of pocket paid unit of all time

[stone scarab]

as someone who owns neither NY Wallace or Mix Red, Mix Blue clears ez

seriously though, i do agree that Mix Red is probably the best of the 3

[low coral]

@crude marten

Since often, if there's a Geeta clear, you did it

[shrewd marten]

[hearty cedar]

Ss mina anchoring a lot of teams for these ubs is a treat to see

The one unit I was wrong about

[stone scarab]

SS Mina really likes these fights that can appreciate her defensive profile tbf

[hearty cedar]

Yeah

I was one of those who said "skip ss mina", boy dena proved me so wrong

[stone scarab]

i'll be getting her from the anni selects hopefully, that'll be nice

[hearty cedar]

Noland got cleared by OG Blue(no nc.cheren)

[stone scarab]

tbf his PB makes his nuke pretty reasonable

[hearty cedar]

Grusha + sstr + og blue

Grusha + paulo + nc.silver too, woah

[kind wasp]

[kind wasp]

No

[mighty plover]

[mighty plover]

[kind wasp]

No hp

[mighty plover]

why

[kind wasp]

Skill issues

[mighty plover]

ohhhh

[boreal abyss]

i wonder if with more dc2 procs maybe even with smth like shauna or even piers at this point could work and such for what i did with mr steven, but cynthia is cynthia so i am happy with what i did

[jade grotto]

Simple, I tanked with cheren

Wide guard is just for earthquake

You are never supposed to tank with lana

[mental jasper]

With Cheren as DPS Lana can tank after the second Fissure

[jade grotto]

Yes I mean you aren't supposed to set Lana as your tank, since se can't avoid fissure at all

Lana just has to wide guard against the eq

Basically anything Nolan does besides the sync is sure death

Fissure ohko, +10 eq is basically gg

Not sure if they had Lana too In mind for this UB

[stable storm]

hlo

I have seen 1 Noland pre sync so far

are there more?

[rotund oasis]

Impressive o.o

[cosmic token]

What's Cyntha's Level?

[rotund oasis]

Move level looks like 3/5 since brain sync 5 is active

[cosmic token]

Damn.
I would try this but mine's not 3/5

[rotund oasis]

Id try it but i have a feeling sc irida is at 3/5 as well .-.

[keen wharf]

that was a fun UB this time around

i lowkey like being able to use sync pairs we dont normally use

[cosmic token]

Mine's 4/5 so I wasn't worried on her.

[rotund oasis]

Muh sc irida is 1/5 so impossible for me, even my lana isnt ex'd xd

[stable storm]

MUCH better than nita

this is a good ub

it feels like an ub and not torture

[keen wharf]

fr

felt like there was some nice creativity to it

the +10 pmun was funny to see

very original clear

[valid raft]

That's exactly what UBs are, torture

[rain sorrel]

Dena: "Oh, you don't have that specific MF to counter this UB? Oh okay, get destroyed then, have fun "

[valid raft]

Exactly

Just ignore my masochism

[rain sorrel]

don't worry, I was in the same boat. I wasted 100k sync orbs on Lodge Skyla thinking it could be a F2P clear. Nope

[gentle wharf]

Noland having double endurance was a jerk move lol

Hmm

Not sure what I’m doing wrong here

[stable storm]

it's fair with how frail he is

[stable storm]

send comp

[gentle wharf]

That Lana NChereNC Falkner one

Ohh wrong Lana grid lol

[gentle wharf]

There we go haha.

[opaque dagger]

https://youtu.be/TNqeW1G7U5c

team is bulky enough to tank 6 syncs, so it also needs 3 wide guard mpr lol
b-move cd helps deal with fly being 2 turn

[small vault]

thank you for this team! Finally got my first win in UBE without any masterfairs lol

[uneven sigil]

I have some of the units ppl are using and i kind of get the general idea,

But is this seriously just anti anni-skyla?

[rain sorrel]

I beat Noland using Anni Skyla as the DPS but she needs EXR

[uneven sigil]

I have her at 5/5 and its pretty lame that its kind of built to be against her with unflappable and clearheaded

I do have exr i guess i just need the right partners

[rain sorrel]

https://youtu.be/syvMJ75eb4w

[rain sorrel]

You can run Lana and Falkner and only have Anni Skyla setup her sync nuke.

The only RNG factors to this fight getting one MPR for Wide Guard AND Flying Zone

[uneven sigil]

Ah i forgot about falkner bc hes such a nerd

[rain sorrel]

It doesn't have to be Falkner but he is the best in completing Anni Skyla's setup for her.

[uneven sigil]

Yeah i can see the synergy

Does he need EX

Hes just there to click fly and buff

[rain sorrel]

Just Fly and Buff. I only synced with Anni Skyla in this fight

[valid raft]

Has anyone recorded a clear on Noland with the 3rd anni trio?

[uneven sigil]

I did 8 attempts and 0 flying zone MPR

(Yes i had it on my grid i double checked)

Even when i failed the wide guard mpr i didnt even get FZ mpr

[rain sorrel]

Yeah, this fight is RNG heavy but once you get both, it's smooth sailing

[uneven sigil]

So i probably clicked FZ 12+ times and never got mpr

Its 30%

Does it only take 3 syncs?

Ill try it again tomorrow my phone is almost dead

[rain sorrel]

Yeah, the first sync takes you to 80% or at least close for Anni Skyla Air Cutter to hit the 80% HP threshold. The second hit 50% and wipes the sidemons. And the third took him to 3%, which isn't a problem to finish

[novel fog]

Can it work ?

Oh Redlax does not have max guard

[inner heath]

you need something to block earthquake, use lana

[novel fog]

I can just use Max guard, fly and spiky shield

And use Paulo instead of Redlax

[inner heath]

with 1/5 cheren you won't have enough dmg if you wasting time with fly

3/5 cheren sure this team would work, 1/5 no

[novel fog]

I can candy but idk if I want to

[inner heath]

if you don't have lana try roxanne

[novel fog]

I do have Lana

Both of em

So keep Shauna and replace Redlax with Lana?

[inner heath]

then use lana it's pretty braindead clear, just need some mpr

[novel fog]

Ah shit she's 2/5

[inner heath]

yes it's the most budget team in the clear spreadsheet

[novel fog]

I guess Roxanne is the play

[inner heath]

roxanne is weak to fighting tho

she can take 1-2 syncs i guess so make use of potions

[novel fog]

Do I grid Shauna with MH

Oh she has that anyways

Roxanne dies to 3rd sync so wide guard MPR is not even necessary

That's tough

She actually dies to 4th sync and then I have to use fly and spiky shield anyways to even go beyond the earthquake after it

[snow spruce]

fun fact - only Anabel and Leon have Special syncs.
Everyone else (7 UBs) - has a Physical sync

[uncut drum]

Interesting

[gentle wharf]

Wait Thorton has a physical sync?

[uncut drum]

Yes

[novel fog]

Can it work or speed debuffs are too slow?

[stable tundra]

NC Cheren is the best speed check

tho you have to grid NC Red with hail on first sync tile, and use his sync to break her endure so Nita's sand gets replaced by hail immediately

[novel fog]

But 1/5

[stable tundra]

that doesn't matter

[novel fog]

Ah good

[stable tundra]

you spam his B Move every other turn anyway

[novel fog]

Aight, gonna try that!

That's prob the best I can do

How does it look?

[stable tundra]

looks good

[novel fog]

So for the first sandstorm I use rain dance with Mina

And then Sync at 80% to break endurance and replace sandstorm again?

Right after it reaches 80% I assume?

[stable tundra]

Red should break 80% with his sync

[novel fog]

So do not sync with Red until 80%

[stable tundra]

so you save Rain Dance for the later endure

[novel fog]

At 50%? what is it?

[stable tundra]

or you sync with him to break the 80%

[novel fog]

Wdym by that

Sync as it reaches 80%?

[stable tundra]

lower her HP to 80% with his sync, i should explain in a clearer way

[novel fog]

Or to make it go to 80%

Oh I see

And when is the last endure ?

At 40? 50?

[stable tundra]

50

[novel fog]

Aight, ty

Speed debuffs ain't keeping up, she barely takes any damage

[stable tundra]

you should try to freeze to buy turns

[novel fog]

Ah that's hard

[stable tundra]

NC Red has sure freeze

[novel fog]

It's actually doable, I just had to click fly instead of b move

[novel fog]

Yeah but I suck with the timings

Choked it a bit, 3/5 can do it without a doubt tho

Got it lol

Should I submit this one?

[stable tundra]

if you don't see anyone submitted this team yet, go ahead

[novel fog]

Yup, it's not there

I think my gameplay was a little trash but as long as it worked I think its fine

https://youtu.be/_wK5tWi5f2c?si=0Y_Hg97x7RyJ3sYI

[agile wind]

Finally I cleared it...

you kinda needed a little bit of luck for this to trigger the MP Refresh of Fly and Wide guard

[fading walrus]

which units you running?

From my experience you only need 3 fly/bounce Vs Noland

[agile wind]

I used NC Cheren, Falkner and Lana & Araquanid

Fly with Falkner to avoid fissure

and wide guard with araquanid to stop eartquake

in the end it came down to the MP refresh of Wide guard

[calm sand]

https://youtu.be/_cdr7c64OWE?si=dMSytVX9TVBjvfnq Someone beat the UB with only gen pool pairs

[novel fog]

How close do u get by that time

U could try using fly with NC Cheren to dodge the earthquake if he remains on low hp

And just let the other two die, you shouldn't really get to a point where u need to go beyond the 2nd earthquake with NC Cheren

Falkner could also use Fly to stay alive but I don't think there's a need for that besides for the sync countdown

[agile wind]

Yeah, that's an option if you don't get an MP Refresh on Wide guard

the eartquake is a sure crit with a +10 PMUN

[novel fog]

That's true

[agile wind]

you're gonna go KO unless you either dodge it or you have endure

[novel fog]

You should either reset for MPR if you find it easier, or just let Lana die and use fly with the other two

[agile wind]

I don't think it would work

because there is not only eartquake

but also fissure

[novel fog]

Just use fly twice in a row with your tank then

[agile wind]

yeah, the point is I might not get an MP Refresh if I have to use it for 2 moves

[spiral summit]

Endure doesnt work btw

He has Piercing Blows to counter endure

That also why we cant use Endure to cheese again Fissure

[fading walrus]

That should be very fine, just needs 1 wide guard mpr

Hell probably don't even need that either tbfh

If cheren is 3/5

[warm haven]

og blue gaming

[rain sorrel]

Bruh, Blue literally surviving at 1% is wild but it was just enough damage to clear.

[stable storm]

Still can't believe some working comps can tank the eq

[rain sorrel]

Some were literally just countering it by using Fly/Bounce

[stable storm]

no, I mean taking the eq head on

no damage guard or dodging

[novel fog]

Prob attack debuffs

Shouldn't be that hard

Oh wait its sure crit

[rain sorrel]

The one with NC Bianca made sense since it was Unova Circle with NC Cheren's MF stacking

[novel fog]

It's that good? damn

[stable storm]

fairy comp tanked it

[silver spruce]

https://youtu.be/_cdr7c64OWE?si=iK0Wx6Q9vqGOYYUp

Japan players cooking again. All gen pool clear

[uncut drum]

Now we need the same clear but with Nate

[shrewd marten]

interesting og blue instead of skyla

[novel fog]

What

[shrewd marten]

i love how the supports tick off the remaining bits of damage needed

its fitting

[snow spruce]

Has there been any lodge skyla Noland clear?

[novel fog]

none on the doc

[small basin]

crazy how we go from nita to this

[warm haven]

Funny how piercing gaze fissure UB turned out to be one of the most accessible

[snow spruce]

any clears with Morty (the original) ?

[warm haven]

https://youtu.be/UC1xX8RXJWQ

this UB is fun

[stoic lake]

a gen pool clear is insane

if only i had the ex materials to do it

[stoic lake]

this video stopped the desire to last minute impulse pull cheren ty 🙏

[exotic dome]

I have to say that Noland is actually pretty easy as a UB, mainly bc once you understand the gimmicks it’s over for him

[stoic lake]

my problem is i was using Kabu for his double protect instead of a fly unit

which got me pretty close but then after the protects he fissures then crit syncs and kills

and i dont have enough ex materials for exing Lana or another support yet

i'll def come back to this though

[daring nova]

Somehow did it, messed up with not using fly when Machamp was ded but win is a win

[opaque dagger]

How many wide guard mpr?
(You took a different route and I'm curious how it went)

[stoic lake]

that was a fucking lie (i pulled)

||3 multis :)||

[gritty vine]

Fakner sync came in clutch to do enough damage let’s gooo

Intertia for the win

It’s really interesting on how this UB relies so much on two general scout pairs tbh

For clears

[opaque dagger]

Just lana

Fissure counterplay can be: Falkner, NC cheren, Nate, p.elesa, gloria alt2, ssr Cynthia, f.phoebe, grusha, Shauna, Hugh, nemona, NC blue, SSA cynthia and a few more damage guard users

Depending on the team and what you have available

[orchid bridge]

Oh Hugh dodging

I never thought that

[stable storm]

2nd ub with f2p clear right?

[shrewd marten]

Hugh can dodge wut

[opaque dagger]

Idk a better word

But his passive lets he revive from fissure

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBPm7qg5YK8

[stable storm]

why are the other two using him as a meatshield

[opaque dagger]

Saves pmun stacks on cheren, unova spirit, flag bearer, circle and funny triple rival I guess

[spiral summit]

Bc he doesn’t have alt

[stable storm]

I am asking why are they using their junior as a sacrifice. Hugh did nothing wrong

[humble gyro]

How am I supposed to survive all those EQ?

[rotund oasis]

base lan

*lanaa

[spiral summit]

Dodge, guard or most reliable Lana’s wide guard

[rotund oasis]

for fissure, you awnt Ddamage GUard / Fly or sosmething

[humble gyro]

Yeah I’m using Lana but just have 1 MP

Can anyone share the Grids for the Lana and Chesnaught team?

After 3rd sync I get annihilated

[humble gyro]

Yeah I’m using spiky shield for that

[opaque dagger]

it's in the sheet in pins

[humble gyro]

Yeah I’m on my phone and it’s not working

What's the best lucky skill for Falkner to be used against Noland UB?

My Falkner died before Cheren could finish Noland 🥲

[stable tundra]

his lucky skill doesn't matter much

have you checked on documented teams involving him?

[valid onyx]

Oh didn't know there's any, I'll go check it out, thanks!

[rain sorrel]

Ah... So that's why Lodge Skyla couldn't tank compared to Blue...

The stat gap for defense is just too big

[fossil fjord]

Hey, do you guys think SS Roxie could work in place of Bianca here?

I don't really see what Bianca does here tbh

[river prawn]

She is extra defensive backbone

Offensive debuffs and circle

[fossil fjord]

Mine is just 1/5

[river prawn]

It's a big difference for Bianca

Her grid is very good

[fossil fjord]

My fault for not putting roxie in 2nd

[uncut drum]

If your Red is 3/5 I doubt you need Roxie

[fossil fjord]

He's 1/5

I did beat it eventually

[uncut drum]

EX R? Also good to see

[fossil fjord]

All 3 are EX R, yes

[uncut drum]

Nice

[final yacht]

Lol already 44 Noland clears what

[boreal abyss]

Fissure UB moment

[warm haven]

Lana + Falkner = free win

[final yacht]

meanwhile me trying to win with Palmer lol

[warm haven]

Have you tried Lana + Falkner + Palmer?

[final yacht]

it doesn't work and you know it

[uncut drum]

I wonder if it's possible to do Lana + Falkner + Nate

[slow sky]

if Palmer wasnt fighting weak u might had already pulled it off

[rain sorrel]

I was running Lodge Skyla + Lana + Nita but even with Mini Potions, Lodge Skyla is still too frail

[boreal abyss]

[rich heron]

[final yacht]

oh yeah easily

but i think i need a 3/5 anabel to max the defense

if only lana had a mpr

The other option is to try with Roxanne but she's also fighting weak lmao

[void cave]

Looking like Noland is a new contender for easiest UB lmao

Only other UB with an all permanent clear is Argenta it seems, but that requires EX Sycamore, so there's still a catch

Meanwhile Nita still remains undefeated for me lol

I have teams that could probably beat her but there's a lot of luck involved with MP Refreshes, getting crits on syncs, and SS Morty quad-queueing is just straight up a coin toss if it works

[uncut drum]

I wouldn't call Noland the easiest, but he has low HP and it just so happens there are F2P units that counters his gimmicks

[void cave]

Who would you say is easiest then?

[warm haven]

lucy

[void cave]

Argenta or Lucy I guess?

[uncut drum]

Lucy

[void cave]

Yeah that's fair I suppose

[uncut drum]

The f2p Argenta clear just happens to counter her by stalling, and Sycamore being super good against her

But overall I'd say Noland > Argenta > Lucy

If you got speed debuffs and antitoxin Lucy can't do much to you

[low coral]

Darach should be between Argenta and Lucy too

[void cave]

Ehhh, Darach is hit or miss for me personally

He's not hard by any means compared to others, but given a lack of notable Rock types when he released, he can still be a bit annoying

[fossil fjord]

I prefer the shorter UBs, less turns = less RNG

[void cave]

Yeah, I feel like Noland is easier than Argenta because of that personally

[low coral]

Darach can still be off-typed, the problem is if your unit can't keep up with regen

[fossil fjord]

I HATE Leon

[low coral]

If they can't, then you're doomed

[void cave]

Yeah that's the issue

So I'd say Darach is easy, but not one of the easiest

And I'd say Noland is easier than Argenta given that his whole gimmick can be completely countered outright by two gen pool units and his fight is faster

[uncut drum]

Idk, Darach usually is harder for me

[void cave]

Argenta requires a bit more planning around her 50% HP threshold

[uncut drum]

You need constant WTZ for him which can be limitimg

[uncut drum]

Not really. 2 weathers, 2 rebuff usages

Just conserve second one and it's good

[void cave]

Yeah, but she's still pretty bulky too, even without rain

[uncut drum]

That's true, but her damage is mostly single target so if you have a good tank who can heal (like Sycamore), you can handle it fine

[void cave]

Fair, it just ends up being a bit tedious at that point

With no rain and with a rebuff on her, you're kinda just waiting for her to go down at that point

But she can still deal good chunks of damage

With Noland, with Lana and Falkner, he can literally only damage you with his sync move after a point

You don't even need to EX them

[uncut drum]

Yeah, but compared to Darach, she's easier I feel

[void cave]

Oh yeah 100%

Darach is probably right in the middle of the UBs in terms of difficulty

[uncut drum]

Noland is gimmicky. With even Nate and Lana, pretty much anyone can beat him

[void cave]

Not as hard as Anabel, Palmer, or Nita, but not as easy as Noland, Argenta, or Lucy

[uncut drum]

Darach is miles easier than Leon

You forgot him

[void cave]

Right, I forget what his gimmick even is lol

Been a while since I fought him

[uncut drum]

Terrain and status

If you don't bring electric terrain you're fucked

[void cave]

Right yeah

I mean, I had 3/5 NC Blue and SST Red at that point, so it didn't take too long to beat him

[uncut drum]

The good thing SST Red makes him feel so much easier

[uncut drum]

Yeah. SST Red hard counters Leon, but you really want Red for this battle

[void cave]

Thorton I also feel isn't too bad

Hell I'm pretty sure I beat him first try with just the Kanto NCs and no real prep lmao

Like yeah NC Leaf is the big counter but even then

Every other UB, even going in knowing the gimmick, has required some tailored setup and experimenting

People say this and that

But

Noland actually easy

I mean 3 spotlights can own it

Old ones even

We are not cooking enough

[void cave]

Yeah lol, and Blue is kinda just there to flex that it can be done with 3 permanent units

Any other solid damage dealer can probably take his place if you just use Lana and Falkner

[final yacht]

I think Noland is hard, it just so happens that Lana is a spotlight

Remove Lana and everyone cries

[rain sorrel]

RIP everyone who didn't get Grusha.

[final yacht]

Yeah basically

People would try with Roxanne but struggle hard because she's fighting weak

[void cave]

I'm lucky Lana is not one of the spotlights I'm missing lmao

Hopefully I can beat Nita sooner or later

Only one I haven't beaten yet

I don't have Irida so I'm trying to use the Egg Lapras strat as a substitute

[rain sorrel]

Inversely, even if they removed Falkner, there's Nate, NC Cheren, and even Nita as alternatives.

[final yacht]

Yeah there's a reason I mentionned Lana lol

There's no pair like her, even in other UBs there isnt a pair as mandatory as her

[void cave]

I think it's funny how the one thing I'm short on to try and do the Lapras strat on Nita is literally 3★ and 4★ Power Ups lmao

Lapras can barely survive otherwise

I'd been using them to upgrade all my 3★ and 4★ units and didn't think I'd need an Egg mon for anything like this lol

[snow spruce]

Noland is not the easiest or anything. It just so happens that Lana and her 60% (!) WG MPR hard-counters him and is in the general pool

[low coral]

Well, Nita probably has more mandatory units than Lana for Noland

But Nita is an outlier battle

[shrewd marten]

Nita is undisputed hardest

Can’t get more oppressive than that

Much more*

[uncut drum]

DeNA: You sure about that?

[low coral]

Now we wait for the special Anni UB

[shrewd marten]

Bro

I cannot

[uncut drum]

Don't give them ideas

[shrewd marten]

If they make it unbeatable without a 3/5 mf

Ain’t no way

[low coral]

I actually do wonder if the UB on the anni month will be any different

Leon would be someone I would expect as the UB for the anni month

[shrewd marten]

The ebe was significantly harder

Although kanto was able to f2p it even if unova failed kekw

[snow spruce]

they make an UB that will require 3/5 Anni Arceus (going to either Volo or Cynthia)

[low coral]

That one was partly because it was one EBE for three units

Rather than 3 different EBEs

[uncut drum]

But Leon was released? Unless you mean similar difficulty

[low coral]

I mean Leon would be a character I would expect to be the anni month opponent, but they didn't do it

[shrewd marten]

Well tbh it wasn’t designed for all 3

Just any one of the 3

[uncut drum]

Maybe Red could be? He appears in the Rally background

And Red being popular may give them an excuse

[shrewd marten]

Ah

That’s brilliant

See

They need a red in anni

They just didn’t say where

[uncut drum]

Who they'll give him though

[shrewd marten]

Who’s left like lapras?

[low coral]

The problem is more so the weakness left

Unless they pull a multi-type UB

[uncut drum]

No. Lapras weak to electric, fighting and grass

All three were taken

[final yacht]

They pull a no weakness

[uncut drum]

Maybe Espeon?

[stable tundra]

Dark weak Espeon go go

[low coral]

Charizard already has Rock, Electric, and Water taken

Pikachu has Ground

[shrewd marten]

When does red have an espeon

[low coral]

Venusaur has Fire, Ice, Psychic, and Flying

[uncut drum]

Charizard used also by Leon, Articuno by Thorton

[low coral]

GSC only

[stable tundra]

Psychic weak Venusaur

[final yacht]

His original team

[shrewd marten]

Does he ever get a dragonite

[low coral]

Lapras wasn't on Red's first team

[shrewd marten]

Ic

[uncut drum]

Unless he got one in SM I don't think so

[stable tundra]

Lance caught all Dratini

[final yacht]

Red doesnt have that many Pokémon all things considered

[void cave]

What if they just gave him Mewtwo

[uncut drum]

Used by Giovanni

[void cave]

Bug weak

[final yacht]

UBs use cannon Pokémon

[shrewd marten]

Lance took the entire Dratini ecosystem

[low coral]

His roster expands a bit if you count Let's Go and/or Stadium

But those are different things, generally

[uncut drum]

Stadium is a reach

[stable tundra]

That includes Thorton's Articuno and Noland's Machmp

[uncut drum]

Can see Let'd go

[final yacht]

I mean yes

[uncut drum]

They can use any Pokémon

[shrewd marten]

when the和力量日式恩贴

[low coral]

Idt they would go with a Let's Go specific Pokémon

[stable tundra]

That's where Silver has 2 birds and Mewtwo so yeah

[final yacht]

They both have a pool of Pokémon they can use

[shrewd marten]

Oh god i fcked up my keyboard lol

But I meant to say what about ananbel with entei

That’s not cannon afaik

[uncut drum]

Yes it is

[final yacht]

For example Noland cant use a Pinsir

[stable tundra]

She does have Entei and Raikou

[shrewd marten]

Wat

[low coral]

The new Pokémon Red gets on Let's Go are more associated with Blue than Red himself

[uncut drum]

Her team has Entei, Raikou and Latios

[shrewd marten]

Muh bad

[low coral]

And ofc, they can always do triple opponent UB

Seeing as Palmer got Barry to help him

[uncut drum]

Kantrio UB???

[low coral]

But that would again lean into multi-weakness as the gimmick

[final yacht]

Where's my train bro UB
It's just the 2 train bros but they are stacked

No 3rd

[stable tundra]

Fighting weak Kantrio UB with Red Snorlax and Blue and Leaf with 2 Eevees on the side

[uncut drum]

Aka Palmer 2.0

[final yacht]

We already have a fighting weak UB

[stable tundra]

How about 3v6 battle

[stable tundra]

Ik but they gonna repeat types eventually

[final yacht]

Or not

Maybe they just stop at 17 UBs

[stable tundra]

Shush

I need more gems

[low coral]

Cynthia could also be a anni UB

[final yacht]

It's not more gems if I cant beat them

[low coral]

Inb4 they just do Dahlia

[shrewd marten]

Dw

Just summon for anni unit

Ggwp

[stable tundra]

Just spend 36.6k to get 300

Profit

[shrewd marten]

I mean

[spiral summit]

[shrewd marten]

Ur gonna spend gem eventually

[uncut drum]

Fairy weak Garchomp

[low coral]

Or Dragon, since Dragon won't have that many opportunities

[shrewd marten]

Yeah dragon

Cuz miraidon koraidon

Big brain

[stable tundra]

Sun override sand big brain

[uncut drum]

Dragon I fear will be bad because unless its sync will be ground they're fucked

[snow spruce]

Garchomp gets for anni:
-ultimate sync stone kit upgrade
-ex role
-and an UB
do it.

[shrewd marten]

YESSSSS

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[low coral]

Most Dragon units aren't Dragon-weak

[shrewd marten]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1084459674344095756.gif?size=96&quality=lossless

[low coral]

We barely have Dragon-weak units in general

[shrewd marten]

BUFF MY BOI

[stable tundra]

3 of them iirc

[uncut drum]

You'd want Dragon zone though

[low coral]

It's mostly Clair that would suffer, and nobody would bring Clair for a UB

[stable tundra]

Only Clair is weak to Dragon

[low coral]

And, if anything

That promotes the other Clair

[uncut drum]

Oh that's true actually

[low coral]

It could also promote Terastal, but, if the Paldea dragons have Tera, it would probably be Dragon

Unless they're not with the protags

[stable storm]

not too hard

[low coral]

@final yacht I decided to give it a try, hope that makes you happy

[final yacht]

I wanted to do it also wut bianca not lana ?

guess she helps for dps

[low coral]

She's better for DPS and tanking

[final yacht]

i'm gonna do palmer sole dps

[low coral]

As well as gauge

[final yacht]

(when i have a 3/5 anabel lol)

[low coral]

I could run full utility Bianca I believe, tbh

It's just there wasn't much other utility to get

[shrewd marten]

thats awesome

🥳

[low coral]

Oh yeah, that doesn't need Tech Cake Palmer either

As I hadn't caked mine

https://youtu.be/Xqch0xnZeVk?si=H40FyFtOGX-ycqdm

[final yacht]

carried by bianca

[stable storm]

biaNCa the queen

[low coral]

Bianca is there more for the same reason as Anabel

Which is tanking more so than damaging

But she does enable getting Giga Impact below Noland's 50%

Which is important

[stable storm]

I wonder how strong the 5th anni will be if someone random mfs were yhis strong

[low coral]

But the vast majority of the damage still comes from Palmer

[final yacht]

yeah my giga impact isn't dealing that much damage

with lana instead of bianca

I dont have the defense debuffs nor the circle

[low coral]

And the Master Passive too

[final yacht]

yeah

[uncut drum]

Palmer: I'm the REAL Piercing Blows UB here

[low coral]

Lol I also just realized that it was actually Anabel who broke the 80% endurance despite Noland being at 83% when she attacked

[stable storm]

anabel, the true strongest dps fr fr

[low coral]

That actually did indeed deal more than Bianca's Sacred Sword

[stable tundra]

Bianca powercrept real???

[rotund oasis]

ugh i wonder how nasty the BC for Klara/Avery/Greta event will be 😦

huh VS Erika hmm

Psychic/Grass weak :<

oh wait o.

itss VS Gloriaa and VS Victor

Victor seems to be weak to Poison / Psychic
Sentry Entry x2, Healthy Advantage 4, Grassy Terrain Extension, Discombulate 9, Ripple Effect 9,
And Grass Terrain sheningans.

Enemy Bea has same-ish passives as Victor.
The other one has Wise Entry x2

Anni May with Acquity and Ball Guy perhaps? .-.?

Gloria BC is taking a page out of NC Serena's battle. Grass weak at least.

[tight quail]

Also, there is good skill level needed to pull it off. And a bit of luck.

[gentle mural]

I'm gonna be honest I'm getting real tired of the Monthly Bullfeces they keep throwing at us

I know it's permanent but it just feels like a damn slog all the time

[fading walrus]

This one was actually fine since it had basically no RNG

[gentle mural]

PoMa went from a relatively chill game I can casually relax and engage with to "nu uh uh you gotta reset and learn the patterns of brand new dungfests again!" every week

[low coral]

But Noland is a pretty casual battle

[gentle mural]

Is the cumulative effect of all the recent content we got

I just feel burnt out

Like sheesh does every new battle need to take 34 years to reset for the right sequence

There's fun challenges and then there's tedium challenges

[crude marten]

ubs are fine imo but the other content are too much for me to handle right now

[gentle mural]

PoMa likes to shove the latter a lot recently

[crude marten]

cs rally are weekly, hs/lg monthly and now we have dc as well

like

[gentle mural]

Right it's not UB specifically

This stage was definitely better than like Nita

[gentle mural]

DC every 3 days feels rough man

[crude marten]

yep

[gentle mural]

Rally was pushing it, a week was just enough to play and rest in between

DC is too often

Again I'm aware I don't have to sweat for 1 mil each time

But that would feel awful to miss

Yet still awful to play

A lot of these challenges just feel cheap as hell

[crude marten]

at least make it weekly rotation

i like dc as a content but yeah

[warm haven]

im fine with it because its 17x2 different battles and there's no pressure clear it optimally

but im tired of trying to optimize rally every week

[low coral]

I think UB, if anything, is the opposite of that

Because UBs have a set sequence, there's no resetting for it

[warm haven]

yeah unlike the HSE with that octilery one shotting your tank with hydro pump

[exotic dome]

Dewgong drill run into Misty run

[fading walrus]

Which content...I get this HSE is pretty annoying but you have 2+ weeks to clear it

And nothing else comes to mind that's annoying to clear

DC I just do 3 tries

With whatever I like

I'm at 450 tickets rn

It's like BP so I take it easy

With average of 70 tickets per go you get 7 units every 3 months

I really doubt the DC reward roster is gonna be expanded at Anni

So there's no big rush

[fading walrus]

I got 5 terrible seed and starting boost in a row, but rally is still relatively easy to clear with 9k, which nets you all the better rewards

Sure if you aim at perfect score for DC and BR, that must suck

[gentle mural]

Still need to try the battle repeatedly to learn the timings, then of course for the 15 different RNG effects to line up (including quadqueues because I can't get it consistent), then oopsie mistimed a move now you gotta start over!

[fading walrus]

Tbh

Some UBs are reset hell

[gentle mural]

I've been feeling it since Rally tbh

[fading walrus]

Others are insanely consistent and RNG free

[gentle mural]

I like Rally as a concept but weekly is tiring

[stable storm]

like Noland

[gentle mural]

DCs now take up even more time

[stable storm]

Noland clears have the least rng out of any ub pretty sure

[fading walrus]

DC takes time if you let it

[gentle mural]

Then the random HS/CS/UBs add to that

[fading walrus]

I do 3 tries and it works out

HS is imo the biggest time investment in poma

[warm haven]

you have until EoS to beat the UBs

[fading walrus]

And yeah UB are literally nothing

1 single worth

Lol

[gentle mural]

24 hours?

[gentle mural]

Yeah that's on me I admit

Not getting 1 mil doesn't sit right with me

[shrewd marten]

I think damage challenge is a bit tooo often cuz I saw how many units I had to candy already

[gentle mural]

It's a mental thing

[stable storm]

lg are more of an investment imo

[shrewd marten]

Dc fomo

[fading walrus]

I aim for 650-750

K

[shrewd marten]

But as for me if I don’t find it fun I say fuck it

[gentle mural]

Yep pretty much

[fading walrus]

It works out

[shrewd marten]

If I don’t wanna do lg

I don’t

[fading walrus]

I do 10

[warm haven]

there's no pressure to clear it

[shrewd marten]

Granted I am now low on deluxe cookies

[fading walrus]

As always

[shrewd marten]

But still

[warm haven]

you're not losing rewards

[stable storm]

I am for 1 mil on aoe and 600k om singles

[shrewd marten]

You are losing the tickets

[stable storm]

no grinding deluxe?

[warm haven]

no, you're just getting them slower

[fading walrus]

Only if it's easy and I have free time

(done it ONCE)

[stable storm]

the rewards from tickets are permanent so you are just getting stuff slower

[gentle mural]

Anyways sorry for turning this channel into #salt-channel lol

Just been pretty annoyed

Thanks for hearing me out

Now I'm gonna go play Rally

[low coral]

Well, I understand trying to learn the pattern (although the game does offer you tips so that you don't go unprepared), but quad queue is not RNG, it's skill based

[gentle mural]

On my phone it's pretty much RNG

I can do the exact same sequence and either succeed or fail depending on its mood

[clear walrus]

Can anyone give me a hand with battle challenge 2 in twin Stars far apart? I literally can’t beat it and I have almost every sync pair

It recommends paralyzing her but she has healthy advantage

I’m trying to beat it with 2 Hoenn and the 1 steel 1 flying

[gentle mural]

Just to clarify, Healthy Advantage is the reason you need to Paralyze her, it reduces the damage she'll take from your attacks unless she has a negative status i.e. Paralysis

Who's your current team

[clear walrus]

Very weird though, I was using SS Brendan and it wasn’t paralyzing her

Maybe I need someone with a 100% paralysis rate

[stable tundra]

Is your Brendan 3/5

And who are his other teammates

[gentle mural]

Yeah that would make things significantly easier

[stable tundra]

Dragon Breathe only has 30% paralysis without HE1 gridded

[clear walrus]

I’ll just use SS electric Red

[gentle wharf]

Who are we paralyzing?

[stable tundra]

You should bring 2 Hoenn and a Steel and Flying type for each clear to get mission gems

[gentle wharf]

Oh right the BC

[clear walrus]

There we go, that was a lot easier

[daring nova]

Sry for too late answer but it was about of 3-5 iirc

[void cave]

The evil is defeated

Can't believe Egg Lapras strat worked

I copied pretty much exactly what was on the spreadsheet except my Lapras was only at 4 stars with like 7 extra power ups or so

But I had a lucky Skill Gear with reduced damage in Hail

Which helped Lapras survive the sync move

[gentle wharf]

Wasn’t expecting two battle challenges

I used team 1 for Victor and 4 for Gloria

[rotund oasis]

Brendan for Gloria battle.

all you need is to debuff her team out of Speed ;

[plush gale]

I choose the easy way using Master Sync Pairs https://youtu.be/UecZy_8gMU4?si=q_zda-i71mWt0A2B

[neat needle]

Can someone please help me beat atleast ONE of the Ultimate Battles

[valid raft]

You can definitely beat Argenta

You can probably even beat Thorton

[uncut drum]

5/5 Maxie, Courtney and SS Morty would easily beat Lucy

Just give Antitoxin to everyone

[neat needle]

Ok icic

[neat needle]

That’s what I was thinking

[valid raft]

Ah yeah, that too

[neat needle]

What would I need for Argentina

[valid raft]

SS Acerola/Adaman/(?)

[uncut drum]

You have 3/5 Adaman

[valid raft]

Maybe SS Lyra as the 3rd

[uncut drum]

Save one of Adaman's B-moves for below half

[neat needle]

Yeah or SS Morty

[valid raft]

Nah, no need for him

Acerola has 2 uses of sun anyways

And Adaman can infinitely reapply sun

[neat needle]

I’ll have to test later bc I’m busy but I just need teams

[valid raft]

If Rei is 3/5, then you can beat Palmer

[neat needle]

Sadge

[valid raft]

Not sure if 2/5 works

[uncut drum]

Argenta: Adaman, SS Acerola, I guess Penny could work for third since you can steal Argenta's crit rate chance?

[valid raft]

Why Penny? Adaman can just burst Argenta's ass down

[uncut drum]

Lucy: Maxie, Courtney, SS Morty

For sp. def buffs

She can hit hard with Hydro pumps

And Acerola can't buff sp. def

[valid raft]

Then just put Sunscreen and Acerola can double heal herself

And Lyra can potentially debuff Argenta's Sp. Atk. too

[uncut drum]

Penny can also steal the sp. atk buffs too

But it doesn't really matter. They both work

[valid raft]

Also, if your NC Red and Irida were 3/5, then I think you would've cleared all of them

[velvet raven]

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it

[shrewd marten]

Yeap

[neat needle]

Sadge I’m bad at knowing who to candy

[shrewd marten]

I spy 5/5 masterfair

Also accerola and adaman

[neat needle]

@valid raft @uncut drum dk what i did wrong

[valid raft]

Who did you sync with first?

[neat needle]

Ace

[valid raft]

Does she have Green Thumb gridded?

[neat needle]

Uh

I don’t think so

Lemme check

[stable tundra]

you also used both of Adaman's B Move

[neat needle]

She didn’t but now she does. Does this look good

I also don’t have sunscreen on here

[stable tundra]

save one for 50% threshold

[neat needle]

Is that a bad thing

A

[stable tundra]

go pick it

[stable tundra]

yes

[neat needle]

When do I launch the 1st then?

[mental jasper]

she clears all status changes at 50% HP

[stable tundra]

Argenta cleanses rebuff

[neat needle]

OHHHHHHH

THAT MAKES SENSE

[valid raft]

Immediately, save the 2nd one for when Argenta reaches 50%

[stable tundra]

use the first one after he is fully buffed

[mental jasper]

1st at the beginning, predict 50% HP and fire a sunny day and the second rebuff then

[valid raft]

Or just turn on HP percentages

[neat needle]

Which cookie has sunscreen

[valid raft]

It's in Acerola's grid

[neat needle]

Oh

I have Sunscreen 1

Wait I have a support candy???????

When did I get that

I could get her up too 4*

Oh no wait

I was saving for Rosa

[mental jasper]

Acerola is perfectly good at 3/5 in general, not just for this UB

She'll be able to clear comfortably with Adaman once you figure out the battle mechanics and know your sequencing

I wish Ash had sprint EXR so that I can do the 3rd anni trio on Noland

[valid raft]

I fucking cooked

[low coral]

I'm fairly sure that was indeed done, no?

[valid raft]

I mean, I'm doing it with my own rotation

[uncut drum]

Several issues:

1. You only use Penny's B-move to steal Argenta's crit rate after she uses dire hit all+
2. Save one of Adaman's B-moves for below 50%
3. Acerola needs green thumb and the node to heal everyone in terrain

it was in the in-game teams viewer, but was it posted somewhere on youtube also?

[crude kite]

how can i complete the challenge rounds missions with these rosters? (hoenn, galar, grass, poison, psychic)

[stone scarab]

could you show me the rest of your strongest characters

[crude kite]

yeah here’s some more of it

[stone scarab]

okay, for Hoenn/Grass you could probably work with Brendan, Variety Falkner and a second damage dealer of your choice, 2 Galar i'd go with Sonia and Nessa with SS Lysandre, and for Poison/Psychic, SS Steven and Koga with a strong support like Falkner

[crude kite]

got it, should any of them be gridded?

[stone scarab]

Lysandre benefits from it a lot, the rest can probably be left as is since they either aren't 3/5 or, in Koga's case, is just there to counter a gimmick

[crude kite]

the poison/psychic one worked very well, as for the galar one, nessa dies in one sync, and sonia and lysandre get wiped by something like earth power. haven’t done hoenn/grass yet

@autumn hound the team you were recommended for that BC round 2 does in fact work. It is flinch-dependent however, so I'd recommend picking up the aggravation tile for Astonish on Acerola's 1/5 grid (they never make this a 1/5 tile anymore) to make your life easier. https://youtu.be/zl7saAfjnI8

[autumn hound]

I will give it a go thanks

[craggy wind]

Things i do for this game

[autumn hound]

Still die from sync I tried 10 times he gets flinched but still I die

[mental jasper]

You might have to forego the coin reward then if you're not ready to tackle all of that at the investment you have. I don't have exactly the cleanest margin at the end and the quadqueue before the enemy sync is just about required. Skyla can also help with triplequeue consistency (you can see I strategically skip over certain triplequeues to keep doing damage and with a bit of sustain through potions

There are plenty of ways to increase your bulk which you can take advantage of and I haven't chosen to specifically to prove viability, so do that if you haven't already

[autumn hound]

I did it I just ex nccheren

And he didn’t got 1 shot

Kekw

[mental jasper]

finally getting around to clearing Nita with the cblue cred irida team, I assume once you overwrite sand on 50% it's just a race to kill Nita before her second sync? I got there and died to the sync myself but I was going a bit too conservative with blizzard spam

[shrewd marten]

I uh

Wait hold on

I remembered

The video

Needs to be compressed

Gimme 5 min?

It 100% works

No variance needed

[mental jasper]

yeah sounds good

I'm not in any hurry to get the 300 gems

[shrewd marten]

oh my GAWD the compression is slow

well i guess this is what happens when its free

kekw

[shrewd marten]

@mental jasper

I forgot to ping u

Kek

[mental jasper]

all good I saw it anyways

[shrewd marten]

Ah

Any questions

[mental jasper]

haven't watched it yet since I've been busy uploading my LG clears tbh

[shrewd marten]

Understandable

[mental jasper]

omg this made it so so easy thank you

[shrewd marten]

Happy to be of service

[mental jasper]

Now I can enjoy seeing this check mark for the first time since Palmer

[valid raft]

Am I the first one with a non-support clear?
