Extreme, Ultimate & Challenge Battles

[carmine oyster]

Wanna do the arc event battles before they expire

Can't beat "Those Blessed By A Diety"

I can level any of them up to 140 and probably get them to ex

am i cooked

[sullen silo]

Can ss gladion and ss wally beat anabel ebe

[dense vessel]

What’s a guide for the arc event battle

I only have arc Steven

[snow spruce]

people have been cooking on Nita

[shrewd marten]

Cynthia Steven

And then a random kriss

[low coral]

Cynthia in general is good vs Nita

Despite being sand

Ground rebuff, actually making use of the perma sand to make herself do more damage without worrying about duration, Speed drops without stopping to do damage

Also, one more Argenta under rain

[solar stirrup]

There should not be any reason you can't clear it

you have amazing units I want myself

[snow spruce]

yeah Cynthia is genuinely good on Nita, but damn - I watched closer some of those sand-Nita-with-Cynthia clears that were done - and Arc Steven is highly important on all of them
the flinches, the endures etc.
Now I dont even know how to approach trying to do a sand-Nita clear with a support thats not Arc Steven .. or if thats even possible

[shrewd marten]

Bro

I just said kriss

[shrewd marten]

It’s right there

Unless ur saying a clear with sand but no Steven

In which case my bad

[snow spruce]

"sand-Nita clear with a support thats not Arc Steven
Sand-Nita - that means without removing sand"

yeah

[shrewd marten]

Steven does a lot to replace so easily

Pmun every action

A bajillion overall healing and extremely tanky

Ain’t no way

[snow spruce]

.. unless there is some team with Cynthia + KriSS + 3-rd that could do all UBs .. not sure who that would be, maybe BT Leon

[sour elk]

Having the sustain to keep the team alive under sand is also problematic for supports other than Steven

Surging 9 and Sand Blaster 9 seem threatening

[snow spruce]

well Steven isnt healing so much in those clears, its mostly the flinches, the debuffs and the endures

[sour elk]

He is also tanking a lot without needing a lot of burst healing on himself, I feel other less bulky supports would sweat more to survive and keep allies alive at the same time

Though I'm not sure it's right to write that as "team sustain" since like you mention the flinch, debuffs and endures are a big part of it beyond durability+ healing

Is the Arc Duo the only team clearing sand Nita ?

[snow spruce]

yep

[shrewd marten]

He do heal a lot cuz triage tank is just passively ticking

[fast pendant]

nop

but at least one of the 2, yes

[snow spruce]

who else did sand Nita ?

[fast pendant]

steven, diantha and silver

[snow spruce]

oh yeah, forgot .. but thats still with Steven

[fast pendant]

well, yes, one of the 2, but not necessarily both

[snow spruce]

sand-Nita without either of them is probably impossible right now
and for just Cynthia, without Steven, idk - something like Cynthia - SS Mina - BT Leon maybe works. I'm kinda liking his utility in UBs, but mine is only 1/5

[fast pendant]

Mina hella overrated

She's not that good of a tank and she wouldn't survive in sand

[snow spruce]

She wouldnt be in sand, she has rain lol. Only 2 rains, but that can be enough
she has good stuff for UBs - anti crit shield with refresh (Nita does a sure crit EQ), AoE (!) protect etc.
with atk debuffs from Leon she could live for a long time

if not her than SS Morty maybe

[fast pendant]

Non-sand is plenty doable by several Cynthia comps, as shown by Kris up there

[snow spruce]

wait, I'm mixing it up, Mina rain means it wouldnt be a sand Nita clear .. well nvm, ANY Nita clears without Steven wil ldo

[snow spruce]

True, but after that I will also want the other 9 UBs with the same team and I dont think KriSS works there. Its Mina or Morty

[fast pendant]

That's another topic

[snow spruce]

Yeah, but the only reason I'm even thinking about it is to get another all UBs team.
I guess for a non-Steven sand-Nita /w Cynthia clear the support would have to be Blue or SSA Cynthia - no idea who the 3-rd is then
(if only Oleana wasnt weak to Ground)

[thorny brook]

Winnable?

[snow spruce]

yes

[neat needle]

Forgot to SS the win but I won with this team

[solar stirrup]

2/5 steven and arc cynthia made this kinda overkill

like 4 uses of sandstorm

[neat needle]

Gotta make sure I have enough . Cant have SS Red be getting his hail up

[solar stirrup]

2/5 steven with sterner stuff just walled nc red

man was hitting like wet tissue

[neat needle]

It was still quite close

I don’t think I have right grid on 2/5 Steven

[solar stirrup]

I think i forgot to get potion mp on his grid

sterner stuff on steven makes him overpowered

[neat needle]

Here’s my grid

[solar stirrup]

maybe its just your damage

[neat needle]

Prob

[marble portal]

ah sweet, who’s ideal for teammates?

I got Gladion 3/5

[stable storm]

latios bullying time in 5 hours 23 minutes

[true lagoon]

penny and wally

[marble portal]

aw dang

1/5 Wally

and no Penny

[true lagoon]

well those are mainly to counter the gimmick

you need debuffs

[marble portal]

idk my ideal support would be for that

best I can think of might be SS Brendan

but that’s so bad for EBE

[shell sentinel]

Trying to beat the Those Blessed by a Deity challenge, any tips for team comp?

Cyrus and Palkia, Penny and Sylveon, and OG Cynthia and Garchomp are currently my only EX.

SS Nemona, AS Cynthia, New Anni Lillie, Oak with Nidorino, and Rosa with Serperior are all able to be EX’d, and I have 5 star tickets to power up any 2 others to 20/20, but I only have the spirit things to get one to EX. I also have the roll coins and tickets to get a couple different EX Roll Cakes if needed.

[echo drum]

I swear, those blessed by a deity is damn near impossible

I'm using SS Nemona, SS Blue and new Anni Lillie

All 3 are Ex'd, and honestly I have no idea what to do anymore

[olive hull]

Handily cleared the Kanto one with NC Silver. Almost like it was... meant for him

[echo drum]

I have both him and Paulo, who is a good 3rd partner?

[olive hull]

Well I mainly used NC Serena for the Master passive and stat debuffing. Defense down is recommended

Oh, looks like you have to keep their defense down. So I guess anyone who can keep up with that.

[bold escarp]

I'm having lots of trouble to beat the regional battles, anyone could help me, please??

I could send my Sync Pairs if necessary

[stable tundra]

Have you been aware of gimmicks for each stage? If not, i recommend checking the pins first

[bold escarp]

Oh, there's gimmicks? I've had the game for a long time, but I've never learnt how to play it seriously, I just tried to use strong sync pairs in my rooster and prayed for the best haha

I'll check them then

Thanks!

[cunning relic]

Ok what beats the Unova one outside Kantrio, Rats, and Arc Steven?

Is 1/5 SS Gladion good?

[stable tundra]

Hard content, like this EBE for example, requires the awareness of gimmicks beforehand to have the chance of clearing them. Keep that in mind

[stable tundra]

He should be able to clear with the right teammates

[bold escarp]

Ok, I'll keep you updated, thank you 🙂

[cunning relic]

I've beaten the Alola one so far. I'm just not quite sure what works on the rest. Diantha + Elio seem solid for the Kanto one but I cannot survive their sync...

[bold escarp]

I know Geeta doesn't attack special, but I don't have any strong electric or poison pairs that are strong in special attack (or so I think

I've tried this team but Lugia always kills me with his second sync move

[hearty cedar]

Cool

[true lagoon]

you shouldnt even be seeing second sync with geeta and ss hilbert

[bold escarp]

I may be doing soething wrong??

I use Hilbert for the sp. def drop

Should I attack with him too?

[true lagoon]

you should definitely nuke with him if you’re able to

[bold escarp]

I'll try

I only have him 3/5 and can't get him higher noww

[valid raft]

It's unnecessary

[bold escarp]

I'm really lost tbh I am trying different sync pair combinations and nothing works for me (maybe it's me playing badly)

[paper mural]

SS Blue is infamous for not good at team healing and '24anniLillie is weak to Ground.
I found Hop + Darach is a good core that tank well, debuff and clear zone but the gauge will have a bit issue.

[echo drum]

Huh, that's a good idea

I mostly used the new lillie because she dealt consistent damage and gauge wasn't really a problem

[dense vessel]

Which team should I use for the Special Battle Event Celebration?

[stable tundra]

Please take screenshots of your roster next time so that we can look into yours easier

[brisk lintel]

why is she good ?

[dense vessel]

Here’s a screenshot of all my sync pairs

@stable tundra

I screen recorded because I thought it would be more convenient

[paper mural]

Rain is the second best weather to change in current all ubs, so she's used in all the teams that can't change weather in other means.
And she's better than SS Kris at tanking.

[stable tundra]

It's easy to miss out on pairs if people look into videos

Anyway, use Anni N or Ghetsis on the second slot for offensive debuffing

[broken crag]

what pairs are people r7nning for latios

[lunar sedge]

It's time

[valid raft]

Four Cycles At Fairies'

FCAF

[rich marsh]

Lets see if the rats can kill Latios

Why did the sync just one shot me when they were at -6

Not only that why did the sync do over 1k at all

[valid raft]

What's the team?

[novel fog]

Wait what's the thing with Evelyn?

No one cleared her in 11 minutes yet?

[stable tundra]

do not let her get to +1 spatk at all cost

[rich marsh]

I was just trying Red/Ash/Blue

[stable tundra]

that's why, Blue is slow at debuffing spatk and she starts with +2 spatk

[rich marsh]

Ah I see

Well clears have already happened somehow

You can look at the team lists in game

Huh this is interesting

[valid raft]

Did you flinch with Blue? Because that forces them to use their TMs

And they'll buff hella fast

[rich marsh]

Bird trio is a new one

I probably did do that actually

Blue flinch causing issues again

[valid raft]

NC Leaf debuffs 4 stats at once

So she can also be used here

[rich marsh]

Ngl I don’t even know what she does

I only got Red and Blue

[valid raft]

Leaf debuffs the 4 basic stats with her Leer alone

And inflicts rebuff to all enemies thanks to Leer

[severe cloud]

Latios is still a clown for allowing this clear

[frozen meteor]

Latios

Bahahahahahahaha

[frozen meteor]

Absolute clown

[inner heath]

Meh

[frozen meteor]

Literally just the fairy dc setup

[valid raft]

https://tenor.com/view/war-cry-pokémon-latios-gif-26294705

[frozen meteor]

I blasted it like nothing

https://youtu.be/I6TPvPPYOYg?si=2PtUmIB1Z4PpeJQh

A latios of any kind

Is still latios

[lunar sedge]

Free gems

[severe cloud]

Gonna be a controversial statement, but I genuinely think that was the easiest Ultimate Battle so far

The only one that comes close maybe is Darach

[stable tundra]

counterpoint: Lucy UB exists

[valid raft]

That depends

[rich marsh]

Not even close

Lucy is still the easiest

[inner heath]

gonna try 1/5 team next but I don't think this is the easiest

[valid raft]

Most people won't have a proper AoE debuffer

[rich marsh]

Lucy shouldn’t even be an UB

[frozen meteor]

Lucy is annoying because speed debuffs but yeah, she's too easy

Guess they wanted everyone to have gems

So they made this

[rich marsh]

See some of these are free if you own the right stuff but near impossible otherwise

[frozen meteor]

Yeah but not latios

I could literally slap on Janine and say "yeah she counters latios"

[rich marsh]

Like Palmer and Noland I beat second or third try once I actually got the sync grid builds right. But if you miss any of the correct units you just lose.

Yeah i’m talking the DPS check ones

[frozen meteor]

Yeah palmer noland suck

[valid raft]

Don't forget Nita

[rich marsh]

I’m appalled that Nita actually made it into the game

It exists just to waste your time

[novel fog]

Will 1/5 Penny, 1/5 SS Wally and 3/5 SS Gladion work?

Or no AoE debuff

[stable tundra]

you can give the team a try

[valid raft]

It could still work

[formal matrix]

Used arc Steven and arc Cynthia and Oleana for venom drench. Works easily for the clown latios

[novel fog]

Move levels?

[formal matrix]

Steven 5/5, Cynthia 3/5, oleana 1/5

(I’m a Steven simp don’t judge me

[frozen meteor]

@spiral summit

[rotund oasis]

There we go

zapdos sync -> nc leaf sync -> ss nemona sync -> nc leaf sync final

dire hit all+ was threathening, but paldea circle helped to mitigate the damage

[paper mural]

Latios actully hits hard 0.0

[rotund oasis]

need to drop their offenses.

[silver spruce]

What’s the plan for people with the dragon rush into hyper beam?

Blue takes 80% from either with max defense and -6 offenses

[buoyant tide]

the debuffs latios needs are atk spatk and spdef right

[rotund oasis]

for my team, potion.

[buoyant tide]

considering (eventual exr) penny exr rika janine (venom drench)

[rotund oasis]

see 1/2 potion on nc leaf.

[verbal ice]

Gladion missed last move to give a heart attack, at least i had endure

[buoyant tide]

but that feels like its way too easy a solution

[broken crag]

nc blue and rats work?

[carmine oar]

So am i screwed until i get 3/5 gladion or nemona

[verbal ice]

unless you have the nc kantrio 3/5 i would think so

[carmine oar]

[stable tundra]

Tried with 5/5 Penny, she got cooked. You need Satisfied Snarl on her

[carmine oar]

Bold of you to assume i have the luck for that

[broken crag]

i do

whats the grid

and lc for them

[verbal ice]

idk but it seems like it can clear it ,so try things, that's what i do always

[stone scarab]

got myself a clear with SS Gladion SS Wally NC Blue. Wanted to use SS Mina but didnt have enough debuffing, so rip

still, worked out in the end

[silver spruce]

Got it with blue Gladion penny. Penny over volo was the key I was missing

[stable tundra]

This UB turns out to be worse than i imagined

Luster Purge casually takes Penny to 2% HP

[craggy wind]

Lmao

I hvnt used Anni N in like forever

Hes just there to spam noble roar

I feel lile Holiday Viola is also good for this UB

[peak bridge]

Smooth

[rotund oasis]

You really play it full screen eh o.o

[peak bridge]

Yeah i like the big black border ( evil laugh )

[hearty cedar]

Ok this was a bit difficult than expected

0 potion mprs

[rotund oasis]

I think its made for ss nemomo.tbh. i managed to tank 2 sync moves and a hyper beam to the face with 2 use of paldea circle

Both nc leaf and ss nemo are cs2

[hearty cedar]

We need more sp.atk drops than atk drops

Definitely made for ss gladion

Like, look at that hp pool

[rotund oasis]

Nc blue for tanking mmhmm

[hearty cedar]

This stage definitely prefers nc.blue or arc steven as the tanks

Rosa is honorary

[rotund oasis]

Yep

No ss glad

[hearty cedar]

Easy pickings 9 is genuinely useful against this ub and anabel ub

[rotund oasis]

Tbh she already had crit+2 so she couldve crit my team twice (sync and eq)

But that paldea circle i swear o.o

[hearty cedar]

I was preparing to tank her sync but glad killed the sides so I immediately queued fluer cannon which ko'd the mid

My run wasnt optimized at all

[hearty cedar]

If you want the circle to stay up then only attack once per cycle with nemona

Thats why nc.nate's bmove which is 1 use per cycle works really well with his kit

Pretty sure rosa + red + irida can kill this stage if we can freeze them appropriately

[rotund oasis]

Ah wells UB is done. o/

[rich heron]

So what abt new UB

[rich heron]

Which team

[rotund oasis]

#1009557516369281075 message

[rich heron]

No nemona

[rotund oasis]

4th anni can probably do jt

I saw it in the replays

[rich heron]

So ss mina is not good for it

[plush gale]

I brought Leaf cause She's dependable though https://youtu.be/oWhEOGT7c0k?si=-GblNEc9UiFnxLAZ

[plush gale]

I wouldn't say that cause I use her in that battle

[plush gale]

I was using that team on an Experiment Run

[paper mural]

UB Latios cleared!

[eternal yacht]

2/5 Steven with Gladion + Penny

Wasn't hard

[slate light]

1/5 nemo, 1/5 steven, 3/5 penny

[hearty cedar]

Did you win?

Of course tosakin cleared with this team

[main gale]

Hmmmmmmm

[warm haven]

how's the latios bullying going?

[plush gale]

....Barely 🤣😂

[main gale]

It should have been Dragon like in Legendary Battles

[novel fog]

No chance for me then

[stone scarab]

you definitely need early spatk debuffing for this

the +2 sharpened mind 9 luster purge will hurt significantly otherwise

[main gale]

Is this good guys?

[stable storm]

how fun has it been to bully
evelyn so far

[snow spruce]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1unwNqwt18yroGqlEpdcnvYBhpn7KdX-ZCD53vqiufzg/edit?gid=1190611733#gid=1190611733
updated with what I've seen so far

@low coral are Irida debuffs alone enough for Evelyn ? I assume yes
also how is Chase tanking ?

[slate light]

it wasn't quite "bullying" but my first try with the team i posted above was the win

discounting a few failed cerena attempts

[low coral]

Idk, gotta try later

For sure Blue wins, at worst

[snow spruce]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-XAIKmLO8U

[earnest panther]

So how miserable is this ub?

Have not looked into it

[final yacht]

easy

[earnest panther]

Nice.

[final yacht]

(easy for a ub, not as easy as lucy but still very simple)

[broken crag]

hmm

[stone scarab]

It feels pretty fair, which is nice

The only thing about it i found at all annoying was the +2 omniboost on endure

[rich heron]

That flinch at the end moment when he was abt to use surf

Saved me

My heartbeat became faster when he was abt to use surf

[true lagoon]

8 sync buffs? damn

[low coral]

I think the most annoying part is the battle opening with a +2 SpA Luster Purge

Can quite heavily limit tank options at the start

[stone scarab]

Thats fair, I was able to handle that starting off but yeah

[pseudo forum]

I think it took around 6 for me

[rich heron]

Ye

[eternal yacht]

Can 1/5 EXR Arc Steven , 3/5 EX Penny , 1/5 EX SS Nemona take care of Evelyn?

[silver spruce]

According to someone earlier they did just that clear

[eternal yacht]

Alright thank you

[eternal yacht]

Ah alright got it

[slate light]

all 150 but that's a minor difference

[broken crag]

for those that used ss gladion nc blue and penny could they share the grid

[silver spruce]

what levels do you have ohnoa

[lunar sedge]

I did it with that team, my penny is the only 1/5

[broken crag]

3/5

[lunar sedge]

I can share grid just gimme a moment

[silver spruce]

I did with 3/5 gimme a sec

[lunar sedge]

That was mine

[lunar sedge]

If my Penny were 3/5 I would grab propulsion, satisfied snicker and master healer kiss

[silver spruce]

1/5 Penny team is perfectly fine but if you have her 3/5 pick up satisfied snicker

[broken crag]

neat

ill try it out

[broken crag]

whats ur lucky skills

it doesnt show on there

[silver spruce]

Vigilance all except gladion

CS 2 on magearna

[broken crag]

when do u use gladions b move

before or after endure

[silver spruce]

I saved the first one for after 2nd support sync and the other one after gladion sync

[earnest panther]

Og the misery

Fleur cannon M i s s .

[lunar sedge]

First before gladion sync
The second after the endure

I stacked up some SMUN too

[broken crag]

thanks guys

it worked

worth using the 1 support on penny

all 3 survived 2nd sync since latios had no crit and stat buffs

even after missing 2 fleur cannon

near the end

[lunar sedge]

90% acc moment

But congrats 👏

[rich heron]

Is penny ok for this

[dim inlet]

Yes

Just use her b move right before latios syncs in case he has any stat raises

[spice swift]

So The Fun Team™️ still works?

(NC Blue, NC Red, Irida)

[snow spruce]

Evelyns SpAtk buffs are pretty hardcore it seems:
skinny said she couldnt do it with the Arc Duo "I tried a few times, doesn’t seem possible. You can’t keep up with the spa buffs so her second sync kills them from full even on a non crit."

I'm actually wondering if Ice team-Chase can do it or not .. probably still can

[low coral]

That one should be an easy win, yes

Ice-Chase is something I'll have to test

[mellow drift]

Hi is there a pin for the new event?

[low coral]

Evelyn's Battle or the High Score event?

[mellow drift]

the Ground/Dragon event

[low coral]

#1128052735967764621

[mellow drift]

And the new Ultimate Challenge as well

[low coral]

Go there

You can ask about the Ultimate Battle here

[forest root]

Did it

[earnest panther]

Spatk drops where?

[low coral]

On Blue and on Irida

[river prawn]

Again a UB that Anni Lillie 2 is very good on

[spice swift]

Irida has SpA drops?

[low coral]

Yeah

She has Satisfied Snarl 9

[alpine quiver]

Return of the Queen

[rigid hare]

I can't make it 😭

[fading walrus]

3/5
1/5 non exr
3/5 non exr

[orchid bridge]

sweet, I was waiting for SS Nemona clear

Not surprised she can do it, but I was under the impression she needed 3/5

[fading walrus]

I tried a triple "support" run

SS mina, volo, penny

[snow spruce]

there are a bunch of SS Nemona clears in the in-game team viewer

[fading walrus]

Sadly at 5 sync buffs hyper beam melts mina

[orchid bridge]

Yeah, but I think all were 3/5

[fading walrus]

There's 2

1 is 3/5 one is 5/5 + SC rosa

[uncut drum]

Die clown

I got really lucky though. Normally Acerola wouldn't survive their moves post sync

[fringe stratus]

Had to 3/5 gladion for this

[rich heron]

It's okay
It's not a waste anw

[fringe stratus]

true. I just wasn't willing to invest in it since I already had 4/5 ny lisia and ss nemona to take care of most fairy content

but I guess upgrading my special fairy dmg dealer is prob good for the long run

esp since the only other special fairy dmg dealer I have is katherine lol

[hasty bough]

This is my roster

For the challenge those blessed by a deity, I usually try these challenges by brewing my own strategy, but their dps is too high, so I’m giving up and asking for help

I play mostly with favorites

[rotund oasis]

you need a express aoe debuffer tbh.

[hasty bough]

Yeah I kinda miss exactly that

[rotund oasis]

stat drop i mean.

[hasty bough]

Yeye

I don’t have a good atk/spatk dropper

[fading walrus]

Lucian is fine

[stable tundra]

Darach is a solid choice, he also has Defog to clear zone

[fading walrus]

For that

[stable tundra]

And speed debuff when gridded

[fading walrus]

Darach works too

[hasty bough]

Darach is single target no?

Or is he multi target

[stable tundra]

Piers needs to be replaced asap

[fringe stratus]

multi cuz of his passive

[stable tundra]

Please read his Ripple Effect passive

[hasty bough]

Piers was just so I could survive dragonite’s giga impact

[hasty bough]

Oh

Yeah that works then

[fringe stratus]

yeah piers tend to be one of the lesser spotlight supports

[rigid pivot]

So why does latios one shot my tank lmao

[fading walrus]

If you ended up exing the '24 Anni Lillie she's amazing for the stage

[hasty bough]

Hm

[fading walrus]

You're not dropping his atk, spatk or Spdef

[hasty bough]

Thanks for the help! I’ll give this another go

[rigid pivot]

Well it’s not like I can drop it instantly-I have penny and nemona but I need time to set it up

Sucks

[fading walrus]

https://youtu.be/TbwJal_NPJo?si=Cy9kIeV_HMHfegrJ

This is a f2p clear

You can follow the guideline of team build, sync order and target priority with limiteds with similar abilities

[fading walrus]

Well there's stuff like protect, light screen and such on some pairs

[cobalt cliff]

Hello! Any good debuffer for New Latios UEB? I dont have NC Leaf

[rigid pivot]

I almost was able to do it first try

But penny instantly died to hyper beam

And didn’t get confusion or flinch hacks on the hyper beam feels bad

Not sure what I can improve

[low coral]

Why was Penny tanking instead of Steven?

[rigid pivot]

Ayy there we go

[rigid pivot]

Thought she’d be able to take it more but guess not-plus she can instantly heal back the one shot luster purge turn one just in case-but I tried to leave it for potion instead and it worked

Probs made it harder than it needed to be though

Won on the last turn I could unless Steven flinched again

[rigid hare]

It seems that i was joking

[rigid hare]

Oh true, i could've tried with Jellicent

Since i got her 3/5 i am not using her at all lol

[uncut drum]

She's amazing. In this battle she also benefits from impervious so luster purge doesn't debuff

[rigid pivot]

She doesn’t get one shot by luster purge turn 1? Huh

I forgot what she does mostly Ngl lol

[uncut drum]

If you debuff Evelyn's special attack before it hits? No it doesn't do that much

[rigid pivot]

Ohhhh i See

[uncut drum]

This is why I used Bede too

[rigid pivot]

She buffs it by +2 so I didn’t have enough to fully debuff

[uncut drum]

You just need to bring it down to neutral for it to work

[rigid pivot]

My fairy damage before I got ss nemona like 2 weeks ago was complete crap I hate using diantha lol

[bold escarp]

I still couldn't beat the johto team battle, could anyone help me please??

[wicked jacinth]

Is this a good team comp for kanto ebe?

Im struggling to beat it

Nvm as soon as i EX’d silver and sent the pic I beat it comfortably lol

[bold escarp]

I'm using this team and can't get to beat it

I've tried differents pairs too but nothing seems to work for me

[steady roost]

ngl really struggled with this one. got so close so many times and then put mind games on nc blue and finally won….

[lunar sedge]

You need to debuff her spdef too, not just atk/spatk

[spark isle]

This team just never fails huh?

[steady roost]

oh…. my bad then for not reading all the rules

[left crow]

I have 1/5 penny and 4/5 ss mna, both exed

Which is better for evelyn?

[snow spruce]

how is NC Cheren - Anni Skyla - SS Mina looking for this UB ?
do they finally get filtered ?

[low coral]

They probably win unless the SpA debuffs is too agressive for Skyla

Or if Mina can't take Hyper Beam

But she probably can, since Draining Kiss is super effective

[stable storm]

I like how everyone is bullying latios after 3 months of 2 hard and 1 hilarious ub

is there any grusha clear on latios yet?if not I will try to make one

[left crow]

Nvm I can't do it

1/5 ss gladion, mina, and ss wally too frail

[cobalt cliff]

I managed to beat Latios with this team

[stable storm]

what's your strongest dd

[left crow]

Ss gladion

[stable storm]

Steven can tank the first luster right?

[cobalt cliff]

Yes

[left crow]

Since wally is 1/5 he's relegated to utility

[lone bramble]

whats geetas grid?

[stable storm]

even at 1/5?

[left crow]

Yeah 😭

Lemme send my fairies

[stable storm]

uninvested units generally can't do ubs

[stable storm]

what are your strongest invested dds

[left crow]

Like non fairies?

[limpid egret]

Arc units are broken 💀💀 My first Ultimate down

[left crow]

I have 3/5 sstred, 5/5 ss diantha

[left crow]

@stable storm

OH YEAH I HAVE CERENA

Lisia can do it

[stable storm]

is that a duo clear?

[stable storm]

...... genuinely how do you forget that

[left crow]

Im dumb lul

[stable storm]

everyone is having fun bullying latios

same

[left crow]

Who can i pair cerena with

[limpid egret]

Might as well have been, i had 5/5 berta just spamming its cheapest move but it did like 8% damage total to seviper, my Arc Cynthia is 2/5 EX+R and my Arc Steven is 1/5 EX

[left crow]

On a serious note my first instinct on stages like this is consider on type options

[stable storm]

do you have a tanky support like ss mina

[left crow]

She's 4/5

Exed

Def invested

Prolly wally, mina, cerena?

[stable storm]

try mina ,cerena and something to keep the sides in check

that pult will hit you very hard

same for hydreigon

[left crow]

I tried bede but stupefication only does special

[rich heron]

Morgan UB

Poison weak

[true lagoon]

psychic*

[rich heron]

Oh ye we don't have psychic yet too

[true lagoon]

also grassy terrain

easy psychic gimmick counter

[rain sorrel]

NO FREAKING WONDER LILLIEGALEO WAS STRUGGLING IN MY PAST RUNS. I DIDN'T EVEN GIVE HER A GRID

[stable storm]

we are roasting latios so hard

[rain sorrel]

Team Lillie (plus Arc Steven) did shockingly decent too

[true lagoon]

honestly giving everyone fluid fortification is straight evil

[gentle wharf]

Goddammit I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong with Evelyn

[stable storm]

the ub would be below darach level if they didn't have fluid fort

[rain sorrel]

Yeah, honestly Evelyn's only problem is her T1 and having the right units to suppress Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, and Atk. Pretty sure only NC Leaf covers for it in one body. Unless you gave NC Blue Mind Games.

[true lagoon]

is 1/5 ss gladion enough

[stable storm]

can't you ignore attack or sp def if you kill the side that uses that attacking stat quickly

[true lagoon]

with penny and nc blue

[stable storm]

no

no

[true lagoon]

ok then what about sstr mix blue and nc blue 🗿

[rain sorrel]

My first clear was with Variety Kris, SST Red, and NC Blue. 3/5 Variety Kris can double the Sp Atk drops with NC Blue.

SST Red just answers the Sp Def.

[true lagoon]

ik

can penny tank evelyn instead of blue

[stable storm]

probably assuming all 3/5

I just went with standard fairy comp lmao

[gentle wharf]

Fuck everyone’s bullying Evelynnbut me

[fading walrus]

Darach is underrated tbfh

Lots of rosters can lack the cohesion to outdps the regen while upkeeping wtz

[stable storm]

he's certainly a simpler ub that demands for good damage very quickly

also he IS one of the ubs with a f2p clear

[true lagoon]

do you thibk evelyn will get f2p clears or is she too much still

[paper mural]

Lucy, Darach and Argenta are what I'll be happy to see for very hard stage 10 in BR.

[stable storm]

nah, too much

[paper mural]

The issue of Everlyn is that f2p/genpool fairy strikers suck, and she has Thorton / Leon equivilant of hp.

[rain sorrel]

Evelyn's T1 is a nightmare for any F2P team that lacks any flinch. The Support is gonna get 1-hit KO'd by that Luster Purge

[stable storm]

her power level is still above the weak 3 and Noland (Noland is a case of requiring specific gimmicks but lacking strength so he has a f2p clear despite being in the middle of ubs

[stable storm]

if you flinch the sides go crazy

[true lagoon]

imagine if she used her tm in her ub

absolute nightmare

[stable storm]

They learnt from nita

imagine if she had Nita level buffing and required dragon zone removal

[fading walrus]

I mean her own and left side's spa buffs make it worse than +4 defs imo

Because you need 2 sources of -1 spa or a single -2 spa debuffs

[true lagoon]

the issue is just completely removing any progress you made on fluid fortification

[fading walrus]

The aggressive spa buffing is worse

Because it makes her nuke you

With just +1 spa, you're fucked

[rain sorrel]

She would demand the same units to counter Gio UB at that point.

[fading walrus]

Having a slowed down fortification isn't as bad as a +1 spa EQ or luster purge

[stable storm]

honestly the sides are more threatening to me

especially the pult

dragon darts are nasty

and surf

[fading walrus]

Surf isn't a big deal as crunch, darts or rush

I used dragon guard + team dragon guard in my 1/5 exrless Nemona clear and those darts still were extremely scary

[snow spruce]

Evelyns sync is Special, right ?

[stable storm]

it's still annoying

these sides are the second strongest sides imo

after Nita's sandstorm hippo

[paper mural]

Nita's hippo is pure evil...

[warm haven]

Sycamore can't tank Evelyn?

[rain sorrel]

Definitely not against her T1 Luster Purge plus Dragapult/Latios can go physical

[gentle wharf]

FINALLY

[fading walrus]

Bro was struggling with the two most op units in the game, ☠️

[stable storm]

who gave it infinite sandstorm

[stable storm]

maybe they are only 2/5 or smth

[fading walrus]

Well 1/5 Steven + Oleana definitely solves most of the debuffing, the deal-breaker would be 1/5 Vs 3/5 Cynthia or 5/5

[simple pine]

Holy f this team was just something random i thought of didnt think it would actually work

[valid onyx]

Arghhhh if I only I have candy for Geeta and Steven 🥲

[fading walrus]

The stage is made for Nemona

[simple pine]

What about this

[true lagoon]

also really unsurprising

[simple pine]

M literally 4 days in the game....

Okay sure

[true lagoon]

i mean the team answers all of the gimmicks

thats not surprising that you won

[nocturne arch]

I was doing this one challenge but how can I beat it with no wipe units?

I used SS rosa, Neo champ leaf and Lucas

[snow spruce]

this was more annoying than I thought it would be.
I rate Evelyn as harder than Argenta & Darach at least

[nocturne arch]

It worked. But I have to take down the side after I took down cynthia

[snow spruce]

I think buffing every turn is my least favorite UB gimmick (Evelyn SpAtk, Nita speed etc.)

[nocturne arch]

Also I have to get it done by today

[lean trench]

How would you rank UBs from hardest to easiest now that Evelyn is here?

[warm haven]

i just tried her, imo she's at the level of thorton at least

[final yacht]

maybe for once I can use H Whitney somewhere

[fossil fjord]

Ok wtf, Penny cannot tank this stage

Even with -6 spatk she dies to hyper beam

[snow spruce]

Penny is not tanky at all

[nocturne arch]

Yeah. How can I stay alive on this?

[fossil fjord]

Why did they make the fairy support with spatk and spdef debuffs useless here?

[river prawn]

Not useless

You are inclined to clear fast with Penny

Before the crazy damage moves

Bar the first turn luster purge

[fossil fjord]

I'm using Penny, SS Nemona and Anni Leaf

[river prawn]

Don't know if Nemona can clear as fast as Gladion

[nocturne arch]

Anyone didn’t beat it?

[valid raft]

Replace Rosa with a defense buffer

[fossil fjord]

Time to offtype this then

[nocturne arch]

Like Jasmine?

[valid raft]

Show your roster first

[solar stirrup]

That's a free clear

[true lagoon]

dont get crit basically

[nocturne arch]

Here are the units that used for defense buff

[fading walrus]

Yeah idrt why anyone should be surprised the 2 strongest units in the game + a great nuker and rebuffer clear one of the most widely accessible EBEs

Being on day one with Cyn + Steven is better off than being on day 1700 but without NC kantrio or arc trio

[fossil fjord]

Who needs a tank anyway

[nocturne arch]

Ok. It was hard, but I found it annoying because after the first Sync attack, they higher the buff and then they just spam earthquakes and Giga impact. Plus, they keep getting free moves.

But giga impact is the one I really hate.

[forest aurora]

Regarding the Evelyn Ultimate battle, is speed an important stat I need to be worried about reducing? It seems like for me I can only cover 4 stats reliably with 3 sync pairs (Attack & Def with SS Nemona, SpAtk with NC Blue & either speed or SpDef with Oleana and Penny respectively) so I’m trying to pick my poison on which I let go unchecked.

[hearty cedar]

Just tried nc.rosa + nc.bianca + nc.leaf

Mid at 42% health. My attackers died to a crit sync. Can be cleared if I use vigilance on all 3

[fading walrus]

Unsure tbfh

After sync 3 even -6 atks/+6 defs hyper beam and EQ will melt

[forest aurora]

…ugh, no good. Evelyn was at 56% and I didn’t even kill the sides before I got wiped. Apparently it isn’t SpDef that’s the problem, it’s SpAtk I can’t keep in check.

[fading walrus]

-6 spa hyper beam did 924 to my +6 Spdef ssmina at sync 3

[forest aurora]

Apparently 3/5 Penny is hard required to clear this for me.

[river prawn]

1/5 Penny can clear depends on partners

[true lagoon]

she definitely isnt

[fading walrus]

She's recommended depending on teamcomp

But she's not mandatory to be 3/5

[hearty cedar]

The point where I'm at is a sweep for tech ex nukes. I only used strike ex syncs till then

Rosa survives hyper beam everytime even without bianca's circle

[forest aurora]

Evelyn gets way too out of control if I don’t have satisfied snicker 9 on penny. That’s why I’d need her to be 3/5 to have that active

[hearty cedar]

Thats how I defeated evelyn with gladion

[fading walrus]

Sync buffs matter

Mina would take 50-55% a cycle and then 85-90% the next

[hearty cedar]

They dont matter defensively

[hearty cedar]

Aaah

Memebeam isnt an issue

[fading walrus]

I meant luster purge too

[river prawn]

That is where lack of master passive damage reduction shows for SS Mina

[true lagoon]

who are you using

[hearty cedar]

Just now, my greninja survived memebeam with 45% hp. Survived with 1%. Unova circle defensive saved it

[true lagoon]

that would probably be more helpful to know

[fading walrus]

Well it's a matter of your other 2 units not nerfing spa too

[river prawn]

But she does have 30% special shield in fairy zone

[fading walrus]

Yeah

[forest aurora]

SS Nemona, NC Blue and Penny. The other two are 3/5 EX and Penny is 1/5 EX

[true lagoon]

nc blue is enough

run another spatk debuffer

[fading walrus]

Even then, at sync buff 3 or 4 hyper beam at -6 still oneshot her

[true lagoon]

or else you explode

[hearty cedar]

Memebeam and luster purge are easy to tank moves if latios is at -6 which it will always be at thanks to bianca

[forest aurora]

Yeah, that’s why I need 3/5 penny

To have a second SpAtk nerf

[river prawn]

I cleared with Arc Steven, Anni Lillie and STate pretty comfortably, shows how tanky Steven can be

[fading walrus]

Blue 3/5 + penny 1/5 covers everything

Debuffs wise

You don't need snicker, blue already nerfs -1 and penny can steal

[true lagoon]

or just

run someone who does

[fading walrus]

Well I'd recommend penny over a spa dropper because of steal + rebuff + mind games 9 ngl

[forest aurora]

And then I sacrifice my ability to reduce SpDef. Kinda a catch 22 situation

[fading walrus]

Is your nemona 3/5?

[forest aurora]

Yeah, that’s why I’ve been having an easy time keeping the physical stuff in check

[fading walrus]

Well 3/5 blue + 1/5 penny + 3/5 Nemona can definitely clear

Just needs good rotation

[true lagoon]

im probably just gonna use ss gladion nc blue sstr

if gauge doesnt die

[fading walrus]

Why would it, tbolt + blue is free

For gauge generation

[river prawn]

And all fast pairs

[true lagoon]

is ss gladion really fast

[river prawn]

With long animations

[forest aurora]

I guess it’s more a matter of how it can clear… Evelyn’s SpA gets way too high when I tried to do it. Her side just used a SpAtk+ all and all of a sudden I can’t get it below neutral and then drop dead to hyper beam, luster purge and Brain sync

[fading walrus]

With sprint exr, very

[true lagoon]

then side deny if you’re able to

well

you should

[fading walrus]

Me when I mentioned stealing 4-5 times in the last 10 mins

[true lagoon]

cuz nemona is aoe

[forest aurora]

Penny’s B move is helpful but temporary. Evelyn’s scaling is higher than what I can debuff

She’ll just get it back up once I bring it down

[fading walrus]

With blue she won't

Because of snicker

🙂

[forest aurora]

I’ve tried that and it didn’t work. She has 2 allies raising SpAtk and only blue is dropping it

[fading walrus]

I used 3/5 penny + 1/5 nemona as sole debuffers

I think I know what I'm talking about

No blue

[forest aurora]

Why do you think I’m trying to think about using 3/5 penny then

[fading walrus]

Man I love when

[fading walrus]

You have blue

I had only penny

For spa drops

I still won with a single source of spa debuffing

And blue also flinches

Making racking spa drops much easier

So I do say it's manageable

You just need to work on your denials and rotations

[true lagoon]

ok holy fuck

evelyn does 837 to nc blue t1

[fading walrus]

Yea

Ideally you wanna protect or flinch

[forest aurora]

…hm. Now there’s a point I hadn’t thought before. The Grid I had wasn’t using Flicnhes. I’ll see if I can adjust my grid to slot that in.

[fading walrus]

Flinch is in 1/5 blue

It's base kit

[fading walrus]

It did 480 to ssmina with fairy zone team special dr3

It's harsh

But blue gets to flinch RNG for it

[true lagoon]

so initial guard?

[forest aurora]

…oh. So it’s an inconsistent clear at best. that’s reassuring.

[true lagoon]

but ss gladion eats my gauge for his tm :deadge:

ig ill just grid initial guard

[fading walrus]

You literally reset t1

[true lagoon]

better than dealing with that nonsense

[fading walrus]

Lol

[true lagoon]

bruh

[fading walrus]

If this is enough to make you give up

Yikes

[river prawn]

Welcome to UB clearing

[true lagoon]

if their’s is 3/5

cant they just grid initial guard

[fading walrus]

That's another option ya

[true lagoon]

and the luster purge is completely neutralized

[fading walrus]

That too yea

But again, flinching is also always an option for even easier time to start

[true lagoon]

its really not the issue you think it is sorry

[fading walrus]

Going for T1 flinch resets is just barely an issue

It's like a 10 seconds reset cycle

[fading walrus]

Errata corrige

#1209457129979641886 message

[forest aurora]

I finally remembered what I was thinking of for flinches in the NC Blue grid. Hostile Environment 2. Unless for some reason I’m a dumb stupid idiot and that doesn’t add flinch chance.

[fading walrus]

Even if he had aggravation, he has no native flinch effect on kit

His passive is a set 30%

Like staggering

[forest aurora]

Well that sucks. At least it was worth a try.

[fading walrus]

So iirc it doesn't get buffed by csmm "more likely moves effects" either

[forest aurora]

It’ll make the para more consistent though and doesn’t take much grid space though, so I guess no harm done.

[fading walrus]

HE2 is kinda whatever for Evelyn

I'd rather grab something else

[forest aurora]

Not wrong, but I don’t have the energy to get more ideal spaces… they’re father in his other branches than I can do, iirc.

Best thing I can maybe see is trying to reach for the S-move healing thing.

…I got the healing passive. It’s not too much but hopefully a little bit goes a long way.

[true lagoon]

synchro healing eh for ubs tbh

[fading walrus]

https://youtu.be/Q-XAIKmLO8U?si=IhSxhUYLR74wOV2R

Gawdawmn

[true lagoon]

ur not syncing with blue more than once and ub syncs either destroy you or tickle you

so 20% max hp isnt a lot

not to mention 2 b move uses

[river prawn]

It's pretty good

I use it always with Blue in UBs

[true lagoon]

hm

i suppose

[river prawn]

As much as Blues healing is good, it's also burst heavy

And limited by uses

Any amount you can add to that is good

Evelyn UB is a place where potion is better than B roost

[true lagoon]

(insert expletive here)

fucking darts crit the second hit

[river prawn]

Similar to Leon UB

Where there are enemy 4 bar single target moves

[true lagoon]

actually am i dead

only 60% 4 turns from second sync feels bad

[fading walrus]

If you're running initial guard, why aren't you also running vigi

[river prawn]

I think you used B fleur cannon too early

[true lagoon]

yeah thats probably it

[true lagoon]

i wasnt

also you dont expect nat crits anyway

[fading walrus]

Holy shit this ending

Real #1255888121648644197 moment

[fading walrus]

I always do

It's why I run vigi on everything

Even stuff with crit shield like ssmina

Because the moment the shield drop you get nat crit

[true lagoon]

thats just paranoia at that point

[fading walrus]

I lost a run with 1/5 nemona because she got crit twice in a row by surf>EQ through paldea circle

Just as crit shield ran out

[forest aurora]

No kidding. My more recently attempts made it about as far as my initial ones and were way more durable, but Nemona got 1 shot by a Crit Sync move.

[fading walrus]

Well second sync has 50% crit odds

And +2 crit moves are 80%

[forest aurora]

It does, just would’ve lived if it hadn’t crit. Little salty about it cause it was a somewhat decent run.

[fading walrus]

Yeah triple vig in ub is rarely a bad idea lol

Even tho penny can steal the first DH+ all

[forest aurora]

Yeah… I did admittedly misplay that one cause I panicked about Evelyn being +3 SpA

Sent the B move a bit too early

[snow spruce]

@low coral btw can Ice team + Arc Steven do all UBs ?
especially Palmer and especially Noland. Red can tank the Fissure with his protect, but idk if they have enough damage to clear Noland before the EQ
it worked with Chase, but Chase > Steven for the ice team

[low coral]

I can try, but idt Steven provides enough damage

The comparison would be more into Blue than Chase

[true lagoon]

when should i be using b fleur cannon

cuz it only does like 25k

[low coral]

But Blue provides better damage to special teams and has Initial Guard himself

Alongside Steven running thr risk of messing quad

[vale pivot]

Alright
UB Latios just beating my ass

[low coral]

As well as a inferior Master / Arc Passive

[true lagoon]

whoever said this didnt look too bad is lying lol

do you think froxanne nuking would be better than sstr since side wipe is kinda helpful?

[vale pivot]

I don't have NC Blue, Arc Suit Steven, SS Nemona, NC Leaf or Penny, how am I going to make this UB?

[true lagoon]

you die

[snow spruce]

and also NC Red would need to spend a turn using protect, than buffing himself (because Steven cannot buff his SpAtk), than blizzard ? and only then attack with b-move
that sounds slow for Noland
.. or do you skip blizzard, but then you miss 3 SMUNs

[true lagoon]

like idk how else ur meant to do that lol

surviving the initial luster purge is hard even with those units (well except for 3/5 nc blue)

[vale pivot]

Thanks

[low coral]

The problem is not the 3 SMUN

It's missing the rebuff

Weakens the nuke and doesn't unlock the B

Well, the B is unlocked by Steven, at least

[snow spruce]

Steven unlocks the passive

yeah

but still

[low coral]

But the damage is reduced regardless

[snow spruce]

Arc units auto-unlocking NC Leaf and NC reds B-moves is kinda nifty

[vale pivot]

Any Arc

another UB that I can't do because I don't have NC Blue

I hate you, Fluid Fortification

[river prawn]

Piercing blows can shine

You still want spatk drops

[low coral]

The problem is more so that quality of most Pblows units

Outside of Leon

Who already debuffs well

[snow spruce]

actually I wonder how bad Leon UB would also be for Ice team-Steven.
He is doable without status, but it would be more difficult (and because of lowered damage there is more risk to run out of WZT before you can win, and Irida only has 2 uses), and so far they never needed to do him without status
.. yeah, Steven isnt really a great fit for that team

[shrewd marten]

So what is eve

Gimmick

[low coral]

Very bad

You'll lose the field effect

[river prawn]

Yea in practice not many can take advantage off it who don't debuff already

Idk how well Victor performs

[low coral]

It already is annoying with Cynthia if you keep syncing with Red

What makes it far more manageable because Cynthia summons Fighting Zone

[snow spruce]

do peole generally agree that Leon is the 2-nd hardest UB? I honestly have him a good deal above Anabel and only behind Nita
only Noland can be equally annoying depending on your lack of damage guards
of course he is real easy with full electric team, but thats a different matter. He can be pretty hard for offtypes

[low coral]

Yeah

[river prawn]

Anabel is just a hard weather check

But recent clears show you can afford much more

Like tanking with Oak Nidorino

[fading walrus]

The reason Noland is kinda easy is that 2 f2p units can half carry very far into the fight

[low coral]

She's not just that

Anabel's offenses are pretty high

And Oak's not a bad tank, he's just lacking on the physical side - exactly where Rock comps shine

[river prawn]

I took it ouf context

But I feel her damage is more forgiving than Leon

[shrewd marten]

It’s probably just the max move

Also what’s eve gimmick

[river prawn]

But I personally hate Leon UB because of the sleeps

[shrewd marten]

I just run an team anti status

Like ncleaf

[fading walrus]

Fluid fort + flat% multipliers when spa, Spdef and atk are raised by any amount

[river prawn]

Sure but it limits teambuilding

[shrewd marten]

So permadebuff

[true lagoon]

isnt nc leaf like super troll against leon

[fading walrus]

You could say the same about NC leaf Vs anabel

[shrewd marten]

No?

[fading walrus]

But she can still work there

[shrewd marten]

Ncleaf geeta ssmorty

I have to imagine you can do other things with it but that’s the most obvious thing

[true lagoon]

i mean ur intentionally powering up leon and anabel

[fading walrus]

You can always find a way to make it work

Look at the SS nemona clear Vs anabel

[river prawn]

For Anabel you need a sun overwrite

[fading walrus]

Eh not even

[shrewd marten]

Is there a clear that doesn’t get rid of sun

Pretty sure still no

[river prawn]

No

[fading walrus]

No

[river prawn]

SS Nemona is useful for Anabel just don't set sun

[fading walrus]

But the nemona clear doesn't overwrite nemonas sun in one instance

Because they use bulldoze and buff

After first sync

[river prawn]

They still have team sunbathe

[true lagoon]

ah yes just dont use the mechanic that 90% of her kit is reliant on truly big brain

[fading walrus]

So by setting your sun there it runs out

[fading walrus]

Yeah but it still clears

[shrewd marten]

But she’s not

[river prawn]

Yea she is not

[shrewd marten]

She has like one tile that cares about sun

[fading walrus]

2

[shrewd marten]

Otherwise you can freely overwrite it

[fading walrus]

But one is debuff related

[crude drum]

Sygna Suit Nemona & Scream Tail

<:MASTER_PAIR:967451573334728715> Paldea Pride:

Powers up the physical attack moves of all allied sync pairs by 20%. Reduces physical attack move damage taken by all allied sync pairs by 25%. The more allied sync pairs with the Paldea theme you have on your team, the higher these percentages are. (Each additional sync pair powers up moves by 15% and reduces damage by 3%.

Ancient Scream:

Increases the user's Physical Moves ↑ Next effect by 2 ranks when it uses Booster Energy or an ally turns the weather sunny.

Energetic Student Council President:

Reduces the user's sync move countdown by 1 when its Pokémon uses a status move. Applies Paldea Circle (Physical) to the allied field of play when the user's Pokémon uses a status move.

Fruitful Attack:

Except in certain circumstances, successful hits with the user's following attacks become critical hits: Pokémon's moves or sync move. Charges the user's move gauge by 1 when its attack move hits.

Themes:

Fairy | Paldea | Rival

[river prawn]

And her b move activation has nothing to do with sun

[true lagoon]

well then guess im wrong

[fading walrus]

Anyway, there's a situation where ovewriting Anabel sun with yours is fine if yours is non extended

[river prawn]

Still needs a second weather setter in team, but cool nonetheless

[fading walrus]

Yeh Anabel weather problem is the start

[neat needle]

Is Evelyn EB ez or hard?

[small basin]

Depends on your roster. If you have ss gladion it's relatively easy

I would say its among one of the easier ones though, but can be hard if gimmicks are left unchecked

Gotta keep it debuffed

[coarse lotus]

ig Penny ploughs through gimmick quite well

but need good timing on bmove

[tight quail]

I've got invested nemona for this ebe. But not magerna. Not able to keep it's spatk in check. Also, the initial luster purge is a damn nuke.

What are some good options for this latios fight?

[low coral]

You can consider using Anni Lillie

Nemona covers Atk and Def, Lillie covers SpA and Spe

[fading walrus]

You'll need a Spdef dropper

You need Spdef and spa with nemona

[tight quail]

I tried hydreigon. I came close. But the spdef and speed buffs kept racking up. Scream tail, hydreigon and zapdos is what I tried. Is there a better tank than zapdos for this? Solgaleo will do better than hydreigon who has great aoe debuffs?

[low coral]

Do you have low rarity deluxe cookies?

You can give Hydreigon the Mind Games 2 Lucky Skill

[tight quail]

No, I don't. I used them up trying to get sharp entry on something. Haven't been grinding gauntlet recently.

Would thunderbolt red be better option? But he cant keep spatk buffs in check

[jaunty coral]

I almost did it with the rats

Like

ALMOST

If i had saved that protect from ash i would have won 100%

[tight quail]

I don't have ash rat. He seems to be good in all ebe

[jaunty coral]

Earthquake killed everyone

But if i did that protect and synced right after i would have won

[tight quail]

Fuck trying to use fairy types. Barely did it with this squad

The hail recoil really put in the work.

[wind tapir]

Ez

[uncut drum]

[earnest panther]

Here.

[spice frost]

I am using
tapu fini
Ash and pikachu/NC Marnie
And NC leaf

I have NC red but not blue

[earnest panther]

what are the move levels?

[spice frost]

Ash is at 5 the others are at one

[earnest panther]

😬

[spice frost]

I have other sync pairs just not the ones I see others using

Am I able to beat it you think or not?

[earnest panther]

I can tell you right now, Fini is not good for this at 1/5, you have no defense buffs and only relying on Rain Dance/sunny day which is detrimental for this battle.

you CAN beat it however. but Tapu Fini is not helping much

[spice frost]

Yeah but without the gradual healing leaf can't survive long enough

I have Bertha for sandstorm or may for rain

[earnest panther]

do you have anyone who can use the sandstorm?

[spice frost]

I have Nihlego but I don't have a support for it

At least not leveled I might have some not, let me look

The only 5 star I have for it is Mc and regirock, unfortunately

If I can't beat it with my sync pairs that's fine I was just close and was curious if I was just not thinking about it right

[earnest panther]

Were you focusing on the sides first?

because if you were..... don't.

focus on mid, always.

[spice frost]

I wasn't, they were knocked out by marnie when I was using her, but then lost right after

[earnest panther]

ok, I was thinking it was when you were using Ash

the biggest thing though is that, you will need to beat it before their second sync

which should be enough time, how much HP did Red have?

[spice frost]

With ash he had a little less then half

With marine he had more then half

[novel fog]

Idk why this UB is hard for me

[final yacht]

because it actually kinda is

[novel fog]

Yes but

Fairy

[final yacht]

I gave it a shot and I saw NC Blue getting one shot

I just quit right after

[novel fog]

It feels like it's meant for SS Gladion but I still can't beat it

[earnest panther]

you need to get rid of that +2 spatk first turn

Nc blue can survive

[final yacht]

guess which type can't lower even 1 Sp Atk

[novel fog]

Normal

No but seriously

What's the best team for it for non NC Blue havers?

[final yacht]

check the doc

maybe you can replicate smth

[novel fog]

Oh people submitted already?

[final yacht]

of course they did

people are crazy

[novel fog]

My Mix Leaf is 2/5, I would've tried that water clear :(

[final yacht]

submitting dc clears: zzz
submitting ub clears: real shit

[novel fog]

Real

I can't replicate any of those

Blue is the problem

Not sure what I feel about this, any thoughts?

[snow spruce]

give Blue Initial Guard

[humble gyro]

I used that and got destroyed

By one sync

[warm haven]

that team looks good

you just have to make sure evelyn doesnt have not even +1 sp.atk

[novel fog]

Doable, it's mf gladion that likes to miss

[novel fog]

I'm tanking till 3rd sync and kill 2 turns before, grid issue ig

[warm haven]

+1 sp.atk = instant death

[novel fog]

Gladion has so much stuff to do with spatk defbuffs

I forgot steven has innate synchro healing

Can keep me alive real good tbh, no EXR sadly

Had a perfect run and then I was confused why NC Leaf's sync was hitting Base Ethan numbers

Then I realised she was running a utility grid

1AM but I ain't sleeping till it's submitted

[fossil schooner]

Gladion lowkey washed but we good 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[novel fog]

Mind sharing the grid?

[fossil schooner]

don’t need +6 on Blue or Steven

[humble gyro]

Can you share grids?

[humble gyro]

Metágross 3/5?

[fossil schooner]

yep

[humble gyro]

Hmmm

Mine is 2/5

[novel fog]

Yeah sure, I'm still trying to clear this but took a break, It's 100% possible tho you just need some flinch luck cause my Steven is 1/5

And Gladion to not miss

[humble gyro]

Mine is 2/5

[novel fog]

Leaf +6E, Gladion +2E

Steven is 1/5, nothing special

[fading walrus]

NGL penny really putting in work against these debuff heavy requirements UBs, especially with dha+

[novel fog]

Tho I'm gonna try this grid for Gladion

[neat needle]

I have SS Gladion. What abt Supports, Techs, Sprints, Fields, Arcs?
