Extreme, Ultimate & Challenge Battles

[mellow lynx]

I guess if I invest in Adaman he might work

Ursaluna ver

[rotund oasis]

jeez.

that's a very nasty stage lmao

[noble sapphire]

I wish I could just link to my collection.

To see if it's possible to clear it with the units I hvae.

But I guess I can screenshot the 5* units I have.

[mellow lynx]

A question , I’ve been using the same team that I used for stage 3, but if I have a fully inmune tank that would prevent the status on everyone?

[rotund oasis]

hmm

i did Arc Cynthia, Fall Phoebe and Zapdos

Zapdos has Escape Artist as LS, and Vigilance + Lithe on grid.

the moment they use a burn move, heal up.

[earnest panther]

First run only

[opaque pendant]

a stage for those who get 3/5 or 5/5 arc cynthia

good job

[noble sapphire]

a stage for those who have 3 limited units that work "well" in the stage

[earnest panther]

This was 1/5 lmao

The biggest key is literally having your team lucky skilled with escaps artist.

Trapped will destroy your team, but without it makes the battle much easier

I used that team specifically so I could complete all the missions in one go

Ss gio can easily deal with this himself with enough gauge management

[rotund oasis]

is giovanni exr'd?

[earnest panther]

Nope

[opaque pendant]

crispy cookie actually good, no way

[paper mural]

Its always good in niche ebes.

[earnest panther]

Check your sync grids first. Your unit might have quick cure or natural eemedy already in grid

[rotund oasis]

i think only your tank needs escape artist

[earnest panther]

No, everyone needs it

[rotund oasis]

does the side actually do AoE move?

[earnest panther]

Yes

Both do

[rotund oasis]

no i mean

oh both hmm

weird, i didnt see Giovanni get binded

[frosty gale]

Does 3/5 maxie able to clear the last subway stage?

[earnest panther]

3/5 maxie might be squishy but certainly doable. Just beware of fire blast

Fire blast powered up will nuke your tank

[frosty gale]

Even if i brought nc blue?

[earnest panther]

You're giving the opponent a 50% boost to fire damage, it doesn't matter what tank ypu have, it's gonna nuke the tank

Will they survive? Idk, but it will definitely do massive damage

[frosty gale]

Ohh thanks

I should try first

[rotund oasis]

okay yeah

you can just have 1 escape artist tank

[noble sapphire]

Yeah.

[earnest panther]

If that's the case, make sure your DDers have lithe or Flameproof then

Unless your tank can have that too

[noble sapphire]

If the one being targeted is immune to something, then the team can't be afflicted.

But if it's an AoE, then it'll inflict everyone.

[earnest panther]

Heat wave moment

[rotund oasis]

okay i kinda get what i need to do

[proud marten]

discharge is definitely there and a threat

[noble sapphire]

I need teams.

[proud marten]

occurs pretty late though

[noble sapphire]

That's all I can say at this point.

[proud marten]

teams with arc cynthia or bertha can clear before then

[gentle wharf]

Huh Eelektross has Discharge?

[stone scarab]

my clears worked with only my tank having Escape Artist

[earnest panther]

The problem with this battle is that its ground weak

[gentle wharf]

When does it use it?

[stone scarab]

late in the second sync cycle

[earnest panther]

No ground damage = suffer

[opaque pendant]

i actually cleared it, damn
but now the missions lmao

[gentle wharf]

Oh I either don’t survive the sync cycle or kill them before lol

[rotund oasis]

HELL YEAH

[opaque pendant]

oh, im only missing kanto and mc
any suggestion?

[stone scarab]

i used SST Red for those on a second clear

[gentle wharf]

You got Elaine?

[opaque pendant]

1/5 arc cynthia and 3/5 ss gio
who to replace?

[stone scarab]

probably Gio

[opaque pendant]

i forgot he bypass tough skin kekw

[paper mural]

Post sync, after he uses max move and Volt Tackle.
Well ppl using Arc Cynthia prob won't ever get there tbh.

[stone scarab]

Cynthia is still dealing with the interference passive

[rotund oasis]

Arc Cynthia 3R / SS Giovanni 4 / Elaine 3R with Escape Artist / Lithe / Unflappable

[stone scarab]

and obv has really good damage

[rotund oasis]

your goal is to KILL THE SIDE

:>

[stone scarab]

3/5 SS Gio / SST Red, Bertha and Arc Steven for my clears

[rotund oasis]

the burn hurts a lot.

[gentle wharf]

Unflappable?

[rotund oasis]

anti flinch

mid can flinch

[stone scarab]

Arc Steven had Escape Artist, others were just generic damage LS

[gentle wharf]

Yeah the subway duo has a passive that increases the effect lol

Oh man I completely forgot Electric Fang can flinch lol

[rotund oasis]

so yeah. Elaine best girl ❤️

[stone scarab]

i wouldn't go with Unflappable tbh. The only move that can flinch is Thunder Fang and it's the first move they use

[gentle wharf]

Thunder

I’ve never seen it flinch actually

[stone scarab]

it happened to me once

[gentle wharf]

The paralysis was more my worry lol

[stone scarab]

but it's a 10% chance

[gentle wharf]

But then I just used SS Lyra and flinch them lol

[stone scarab]

you can ignore it and be mostly fine, occasionally you'll need to reset but it's early in the fight

[noble sapphire]

Use flinch enough times & they'll gain Unflappable.

[paper mural]

2 times specifically.

[noble sapphire]

apparently

[stone scarab]

yeah, thats Lessen Interference 1

they start with Lessen 8, every time the interference wears off they get +1 to the Lessen Passive and once it reaches 10 it changes to full immunity

[rotund oasis]

honestly i just sync'd with Arc Cynthia

[stone scarab]

it's the same mechanic as Cobalion's Legendary Arena, but the numbers are different

[rotund oasis]

for the -2 Ground Rebuff so that you can kill the side easier

[noble sapphire]

Yeah that's great.

Not everyone has Arc Suit Cynthia.

[paper mural]

I used a team that NC Blue is the only interference setter with his 30% confusion, and I'm always worried about it wear off too quick.

[stone scarab]

yeah, this is why Trap is preferred

[rotund oasis]

Elaine sets up trap sometimes, so that's decent.

[stone scarab]

since its duration isn't RNG afaik

[rotund oasis]

you still need a DD that can actually do damage.

[noble sapphire]

Confusion can eventually disappear.

[pine sonnet]

Wow, this is trash lmao

[stone scarab]

confusion can wear off really quickly sometimes

[pine sonnet]

It’s like this battle was designed around the notable holes in my roster

[rotund oasis]

anywho i'm done. I hope Primal Groudon just comes in and drops a nuke on this EBE lulz.

[noble sapphire]

Aight, this is every 5* I have with their current progress:

I really don't know what else I can do to share my roster.

[calm sand]

I still find it particularly odd why this battle is not made with a specific banner of the month

[noble sapphire]

Neither do I know how to build teams that can cover:

• Kanto
• Johto
• MC

I just need massive help.

But now I'm gonna sleep on it.

[calm sand]

Did Leaf not work?

[noble sapphire]

She dies to Max Move.

[opaque pendant]

Are you fking serious

All the suffering

[noble sapphire]

But anyway, gnight.

[opaque pendant]

50???

[calm sand]

is it the story segment?

[opaque pendant]

Ye

The 7 tickets thingy

[calm sand]

ah

[paper mural]

You can use Redlax to give your striker SEUN.

[fading walrus]

Exless bertha sucks pokeballs for this stage for "low investment" clears dear lord (Gio is 3/5 non exr)

At least it leaves out the easiest theme, champion

6/7 ain't too bad ig

[rotund oasis]

dont think you need EXR Gio, but can help tbh.

[mellow lynx]

What does leaf do? Is bertha the tank?

[opaque pendant]

Best player in the server fr fr

[mental jasper]

same, these are worthless to me too

[stone scarab]

same here

but hey, nice to have them in case i ever care about that stuff

[fading walrus]

Yep

Leaf keeps bertha up

With potions

Need status immunity ls on bertha + escape artist

And sand castle 2

To tank post sync stuff

Need 2 mprs to win

[pine sonnet]

Status immunity sounds like a deluxe skill, yes?

[fading walrus]

Yep

[pine sonnet]

Ugh

[fading walrus]

Thankfully we had 2 gauntlets giving it guaranteed

So I used those

I had 6

So unless you're really new

You should have at least 3 lying around

[pine sonnet]

I’ll check. I’m known to skip gauntlets on occasion

[calm sand]

ngl, I feel tempted to try a strat without deluxe cookies

[opaque pendant]

i was expecting maybe 500 gems or smtg else from the 7 tickets, not just greetings

[fading walrus]

It was known that gemwise the point was clearing the stage period

Themes were only for title

[opaque pendant]

well they make it look like it's smtg hard and not everyone go through every gem analysis

[fading walrus]

Well theme clears are hard

Exactly because they're hard, they don't gatekeep much of value

Exactly like UBs

[opaque pendant]

fair

[mental jasper]

they gatekept single certs and a title that I’ll never use because I have 5 top 100 titles, way more interested in the certs myself but they’re rewards of very little value

[small basin]

i still need to cover johto sinnoh and sygna suit

[stable storm]

how many of ya all will be using the title

[opaque pendant]

GL

[mellow lynx]

Bertha leaf and gio succeeded once leaf gave infinite potions

[opaque pendant]

not me

[stable storm]

why

[mellow lynx]

Gio 3/5, uncaked but exed

[stable storm]

you have a cooler title?

[opaque pendant]

i want my steven fans banner

[stable storm]

based

[fading walrus]

As long as we have only one visible one, I'll ever only use my "day one player" title

[stable storm]

I will also probably keep my lear super fan thing

[fading walrus]

Yeah you need 2 potions at least

3 if you get crit early

[stable storm]

SS Lear is pretty good in this one

[fading walrus]

Mpr I mean

[fading walrus]

Yeah

[stable storm]

Lear super fan over everything else

[fading walrus]

You can rush most titles

But you can't rush 1800+ logins

[stable storm]

yes, but only one shows my love for Lear

[slate light]

got all 7 missions at once with arc cyn/ss gio/lodge leaf

[gentle wharf]

I’m never taking off my Super Cynthia title for the foreseeable future lol

[slate light]

grid the latter with flameproof and give her lithe ls and you're golden

[fading walrus]

I use the tags for my faves anyway, because I can't share them

[stable storm]

palmer?

[fading walrus]

Can't have Clair, Rosa, Geeta, Palmer, Rika and Volo altogether on my profile

So I keep them on my # tags

[stable storm]

rosa and clair I get

[paper mural]

I always keep my super fan title bc I imagine Dena will record how many super fan title of a character that players have and make alts depends on that.

[stable storm]

but palmer is fav of some people?

[calm sand]

Gosh dang it

[fading walrus]

Bro is the strongest Sinnoh trainer, is the first true competitive adversary in a facility and uses very cool teams

[fading walrus]

Yeah I grind then, I just don't put them on my main profile

[slate light]

also he's the only character in all of pokemon history to have an actually good, usable regigigas

[stable storm]

I just remember him as the haha second dad in Pokemon to go get milk lol

[fading walrus]

He had a better reason than most

Being the head chief of the "better than the league" facility isn't a small responsibility

https://tenor.com/view/barry-palmer-pokemon-jun-father-gif-27579176

Plus he's cool

[stable storm]

fair

[fading walrus]

Again, Palmer was the reason I got into competitive in 2009

So he has all my respect for that lol

Because all other facilities had some RNG factor tied to the gimmick

While tower was actually really just about your team building

And ofc usual Pokémon in-fight RNG

[stable storm]

his ub is one of the easiest ones at least

[fading walrus]

Eh

[dim lance]

mfw you call Palmer easy

[fading walrus]

It is only if you have a heavily invested type

[stable storm]

I consider it to be the 5th easiest

[fading walrus]

Try beating Palmer without fighting types and without 2-3 invested op units

[fading walrus]

Ain't no way the only "time restricted" UB aside noland is 5th easier

You can vigilance clear most UBs extremely easily

[earnest panther]

Anyone used a non-gio/cynthia run?

[stable storm]

Evelyn is harder than palmer imo because there's more immediate threat

[earnest panther]

Or even offtype run?

[fading walrus]

Without max investments

[snow spruce]

Palmer is easy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kvQWlJxJkU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LRsddaS-1M

[earnest panther]

Trying to help someone out but they only have courtney and maxie as their ground damage dealer

So trying to see if there's any piercing blow runs

[fading walrus]

Yeah no

[stable storm]

does p blows ignore tough skin

[fading walrus]

That ain't happening

[earnest panther]

Yes

Tough skin is a passive

[stone scarab]

It is a passive that reduces damage

[earnest panther]

Piercing blows bypasses it

[stable storm]

do they have a good p blows type move user

[fading walrus]

Well pblows ofc can be used

[earnest panther]

They have 3/5 anni N

[fading walrus]

But with those 2 ground types...

[earnest panther]

I can't test it tho, 1/5 here

[fading walrus]

Can probably work alongside bertha & a third with potions

[stable storm]

I assume the stage doesn't have wise entry because lear was hitting very hard

[earnest panther]

What does bertha provide?

[fading walrus]

Trap, huge chip

[stable storm]

trap

[fading walrus]

And can be full immune

[stable storm]

enemy has low chip resist right?

[fading walrus]

With status immunity lucky skill

Yep

[stone scarab]

Lessen 8

[fading walrus]

And she has poky trap 5

[earnest panther]

Hmm

[fading walrus]

So with sand + rocks+ trap they take around 10% per action

[stable storm]

yeah I used ASC so the fight didn't last long but I remember enemy killing themselves multiple times

[calm sand]

Now how should I do Johto + Champion + Sygna Suit with only accessible pairs

[fading walrus]

Checks out

[stable storm]

something like nc rosa could also work for the interference thing if trap isn't working

[fading walrus]

I used ssgio to maximize themes

[calm sand]

(I got pretty bad Potion luck despite using double MPR's)

[stable storm]

I wonder how much trap chip did

[fading walrus]

If bertha is exed you don't need full chip

Mine wasn't so I had to tank many more moves

[stable storm]

does accessible exclude event pairs

[calm sand]

I also somewhat made it harder for myself to use Lithe instead of Status Immunity

[stable storm]

yes but I was wondering how much chip did

[calm sand]

it depends on the availability really

[earnest panther]

What were the skill gears for this?

[calm sand]

I used regular 3* Ground Gear

[lunar sedge]

Are the burn/para/trap/etc aoe or single target?

[stable storm]

looks doable gearless

[fading walrus]

Bertha is exed right? If so you can kill before burn goes too crazy with friend mend

[calm sand]

yes

[pine sonnet]

Both

[stable storm]

aoe

[fading walrus]

AoE only if ST gets procced

[lunar sedge]

Oh

[fading walrus]

So if bertha is immune

[stone scarab]

If it gets inflicted its inflicted AOE

[fading walrus]

Nobody gets it

[lunar sedge]

That's good to know then

[stable storm]

pretty sure if the tank is immune you are fine

[stone scarab]

If it doesnt, then only the AOE moves will do it

[fading walrus]

They start using discharge & heat wave later

Tho

[calm sand]

also, Bertha's Sand Tomb chips 3% of the HP

[stone scarab]

Which dont happen until fairly late

[stable storm]

when?

[fading walrus]

So you must kill relatively fast

[calm sand]

which is rougly 8K HP Chipped from Eelektross

[stable storm]

I didn't see any aoe

[stone scarab]

Middle of the second sync cycle ish

[fading walrus]

^

[stable storm]

oh long

[fading walrus]

Heat wave comes once mid dies

Discharge comes after wild charge

I'll send my own recording as guideline if you're interested

[stable storm]

@calm sand johto ss and champion right?

[fading walrus]

I even missplayed a bit

[calm sand]

those three I'm not sure how to cover with accessible pairs

Bertha + Leaf + Courtney covers at least

• Kanto
• Sinnoh
• Main Character
• Villain

[stable storm]

SS Elesa for ss maybe?

[fading walrus]

She ain't gonna help

[stable storm]

Replacing Courtney

[fading walrus]

You'd need SS + villain or SS + champion

[stable storm]

you can take multiple fights?

[calm sand]

you can

[stable storm]

1 fight for each remaining theme

[fading walrus]

Sure but the point is doing it with as few as possible

And I really don't see elesa helping enough

[stable storm]

will take a bit but currently just finding a f2p way to complete all the missions is the goal

[stable storm]

those two look like they are dabbing

[earnest panther]

@calm sand could you share grids of that clear?

It's for someone that will attempt that team

[calm sand]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=001700013300&s0=5&l0=140&r0=6&p0=0&a0=17010201&t0=1111&g0=AAECAwQFGx4hIiQmKSssMDEzNQ&v1=015400045001&s1=5&l1=140&r1=6&p1=0&a1=17010301&t1=44444&g1=AAECAwQFFRggIyQlJyorLC4v&v2=022200032300&s2=5&l2=140&r2=6&p2=0&a2=13016403&t2=4444&g2=AAECAwQFBggLDRUYGRweIC4v

I don't think Super Powered 3 is needed on Courtney though

[rigid pivot]

This one is SO stupid

[golden steppe]

Now I really wish I had Arc Cynthia

[rigid pivot]

Mines only 1/5 but she did like 150k on sync still thank god

[earnest panther]

Thank you!

[fading walrus]

Yeah either Cynthia or lear just cheese the stage

[stable storm]

SS Lear our glorious king

[earnest panther]

[golden steppe]

I’m contemplating whether I should cake him or not

[stable storm]

he was doing 20k to tough skin enemies

[earnest panther]

Do it

[stable storm]

do it

[earnest panther]

20k!?

[stable storm]

he's like no. 5-8 unit in the game

[stable storm]

Lear moment

20k on b move only

[golden steppe]

Wait nvm I can’t cake him yet.. I need 3 more cake coins and I’ve already bought all the cake vouchers for this month

[rigid pivot]

I’m still debating whether to candy cythina first to 3/5 or wait longer to give Steven to 4/5, cause Steven is probs more useful overall Espically since I don’t have nc blue but I like cythina more as a character and her Pokémon and seeing stupid damage numbers is funny so

[short gate]

only candy if it’s necessary

If you can beat something without candying, no need to

Also, 3/5ing a unit is usually more worthwhile than 4/5ing one

That’s just me though

[rigid pivot]

If it’s necessary? Hm…alright

Well to be fair

Both arc cythina and arc Steven really want 4/5 anyway in like

Ultimate battles

Which sucks

[stable storm]

ASC wants 5/5

I'd suggest 4/5 ASS first personally

[golden steppe]

I agree he’s gonna be more versatile in teams

[rigid pivot]

Ah alright

[rain sorrel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=as2Dm5O-414

[marble portal]

could SS Mina work for tank?

if 3/5 and Escape Artist lucky

[true lagoon]

sure

[marble portal]

just tossing ideas out there in case it helps someone

idk who would be an ideal tank if no AS Steven

[true lagoon]

its hard

no one is immune to both

but both are dangerous

[marble portal]

yeah that’s why I’m thinking SS Mina if no AS Steven

Team Whimsical Immunity with Escape Artist lucky

Fairy Kingdom to maintain zone

[fading walrus]

Not that surprising tbh

He gets SMUN+ passives + circle

[stable storm]

• I had cracked steel gear

[distant estuary]

Any advice for ingo event battle challenge 3? The one with abomasnow

Is there any characters that can be immune to flinch or sleep

[slate light]

aura cynthia has team flinch immunity, she'll just have to eat the sleep on her own however

[true lagoon]

wide awake:

[stone scarab]

You can give her Wide Awake for a lucky skill to prevent that

[true lagoon]

or just

status immunity

[slate light]

also Lithe LS lodge leaf works perfectly fine for today's battle

escape artist passive, flameproof on grid

[distant estuary]

In her grid?

[slate light]

ya needs 2/

2/5

[fair sorrel]

That subway ebe was painful for main character.

[paper mural]

SS Lear, NC Leaf, VElio all have team status and interference immunity under their wtz/circle btw.

[distant estuary]

Oh thank god

[distant estuary]

... Why did I forget about SS Lear lol

I have him but forgot about his passive

[paper mural]

SS Lear is one of the most "anit-gimmick" unit they ever made.

[slow sky]

SS Lear is an upgrade of NC Leaf ngl

[marble portal]

And VLucas

[grizzled portal]

Is there a unit with team flameproof or team lithe

[snow spruce]

eh, he pretty much has only 1 anti-gimmick - this team immunity
Its great on stages like this, but there are techs with way more anti-gimmick (including NC leaf, who also has team solar immunity on top of other stuff)

[grizzled portal]

Tried leaf and ss Morty but the twins are huge damage sponges

[hasty bough]

For this last Train Duo Battle, who should I pair with Bertha and SS Lear?

Genuinely stuck

Steelillie?

[true lagoon]

tough skin 5 and almost 200k hp does that

[grizzled portal]

Tried ss giovanni but even without tough skin his damage isn't that great

[true lagoon]

i uh

used froxanne and arc cyn so i cant help much

[grizzled portal]

Neat, and how did you make them immune without sun?

Grid and cookies?

[true lagoon]

i just ran status immunity on nc blue and killed them before trap killed me

[grizzled portal]

Smort

[true lagoon]

sync into max move is quite cringe

[small basin]

i'm so cooked sinnoh is the last thing i need

sc adaman would work in practice but every time they use an aoe move they heal since he's burned

[true lagoon]

they have scorcher i think

so that also kinda stinks

[stone scarab]

yeah, he's less than ideal here

[leaden dagger]

Is the train duo crit protected?

[true lagoon]

no

you just have skill issue

[leaden dagger]

I'm hitting them with Arc cynthia and they are taking next to nothing

[true lagoon]

oh

[leaden dagger]

Even when I give chase flameproof

[true lagoon]

did you disable their gimmick

[leaden dagger]

I got chase with both lithe and flameproof

[true lagoon]

thats not what i mean

did you trap with arc cyn first

[leaden dagger]

I don't have time to do that right now otherwise the trapping kills me quickly

[stone scarab]

you need to inflict them with some interference otherwise they have tripled defenses

trap is ideal

[true lagoon]

yeah you need to do that

[true lagoon]

is it specifically interference this time cuz i noticed rebuff didnt work

[stone scarab]

yes

it specifies Interference in the passive name

[true lagoon]

cringe!

[stone scarab]

so restrain and rebuff do not work

[true lagoon]

scrolls by too fast

[stone scarab]

there's always absol's pastebin you can reference bestie

[true lagoon]

https://tenor.com/view/kirby-i-forgot-i-forgor-gif-22449575

[small basin]

HELL YEA TOUGH SKIN 5 MY ASS

completed all my missions

[hard lantern]

is sina a more reliable speed debuffer than irida against nita?

[true lagoon]

they’re equal

both do -1 each use

sina is one less gauge

[surreal gull]

It was a ride. It was THE Ride.

[hard lantern]

sina has a tile that gives an extra -1 speed

[true lagoon]

oh

then i guess

[hard lantern]

though she does not provide hail/zone or support ex

but i'm thinking the survivability that comes with speed debuff outweights the damage boost

[true lagoon]

well id imagine you’d use them together

since sina is more of a dps

[hard lantern]

i plan to use nc red as my main dps/nuker

and i imagine i'd need to tanky support to keep the team alive

so i don't think both sina and irida can make it on the team

[true lagoon]

well just use irida and nc red

the comp clears

[alpine quiver]

Ouch

[shrewd marten]

You don’t need -1 speed debuff if you know what you’re doing with ncred or any flinch unit

[calm sand]

Almost there

[night stream]

Where can I slot the Johto/Villain pair in a SSTRed/NCBlue/Bertha core?

I'm struggling really hard to get those 2 missions

[nocturne arch]

From the #poma-lounge, I ask anyone who’s a battle facility foe and the only unit that I have is Lucy. Is this the only unit I have for battle facility foe?

[night stream]

You can filter that tag in-game when team building

[fading walrus]

Chatelaines from BP tickets are a great option too

[grizzled portal]

Yea

Was about to say

[nocturne arch]

I look through the tags and it’s not in there.

[nocturne arch]

Oh wait. I’m looking up other sections tag.

[grizzled portal]

It's in the trainer group section

[cosmic token]

A**hats are down finally.

[nocturne arch]

For the 2nd part of trainers on the track, how can I get better damage? I was doing some trial and errors and I have no idea what I’m doing

[cosmic token]

Trapping is needed.

[prisma temple]

This works as a single team btw
Idk if anyone did it before, but you kill the stage before the poison kills you

All units were alive even though all were poisoned

Giovanni was basically useless
Just did 3 themes by himself

(he's Johto here, not kanto)

[forest aurora]

Man, I am completely confounded by how one even defends against Everything the subway bosses throw at you without having someone like SS Lear protecting you. How are they even beatable without him?

My best and only thought was to make use of Hilda & Leafeon’s passive, but I don’t have any means of making grassy terrain w/o sync

[sweet bear]

How to stop them from healing so much

[forest aurora]

From what I understand, they heal whenever you take a turn while afflicted with statuses (if I read the passive that flashed up briefly correctly)

[humble gyro]

This does all the missions?

[prisma temple]

Yes

[humble gyro]

Oh wait I don’t have that pikachu

[sweet bear]

Man this is though

I have cynthia and no chance

[prisma temple]

Use Leaf and eevee

[humble gyro]

Shit this is hard

How do I surpass trapping

[sweet bear]

Escape artist

[prisma temple]

Tbh I cleared without getting rid of anything, didn't even change my Cynthia Grid

Given that my Cynthia grid is made to wipe the stage anyways

[humble gyro]

Can you share?

[prisma temple]

i messed up at the end and still cleared

[sweet bear]

Finally did it

Quick question

If the hit pokemon of a attack that does status is immune are the other mons even checked

My zaptos had lithe

And cynthia to

[stone scarab]

Depends on the move

[sweet bear]

I saw that it procket for zaptos

Bit not for cyn

[stone scarab]

For single target attacks, if the target is immune it won't try for the others

For AOEs it will check for every hit

[sweet bear]

So i only needed lithe on zaptos

[true lagoon]

with viral hit the status needs to be applied first before it triggers on allies

[true lagoon]

basically

[sweet bear]

Good to knwo

[true lagoon]

unless you got to the point where they start using heat wave and discharge

(ideally you shouldnt get to that point)

[sweet bear]

Just heat wave but i healed that with the b move of zaptos

[grizzled portal]

If the move is single target it won't affect the others with go viral

[true lagoon]

*viral hit

[grizzled portal]

Ah it'd been answered, my chat didn't scroll

Thank u

[true lagoon]

go viral is status move

[loud adder]

As far as UBs go right now, is Nemona considered the hardest? Her gimmicks effectively crippled the most common teams.

[fading walrus]

Not really

I'd say nita is the hardest still

As even with the best ice types it's still very annoying to keep her in check

While nemona can be done with most good psychic types + Bianca

[snow spruce]

Nah Nita

[loud adder]

Never really noticed how hard Nita is since I pre-synced her battle.

Would that place Nemona as #2 or a Top 3 contender still?

[true lagoon]

id say shes like #5

[fading walrus]

My way to gauge UBs is trying to offtype them

Even with 3 premiums

[alpine quiver]

🥹

[calm sand]

now only finding an accessible team for Sygna Suit and Champion theme skill

[alpine quiver]

Five sygna suits and five champions to choose from

What freedom!

I might take SS Misty and probably DC Nemona

[olive hull]

So who's the canon team for the last subway battle?

[final yacht]

There is none

[olive hull]

Arc Cynthia, SS Giovanni, 3/5 Elaine?

[snow spruce]

Arc Cynthia - Elaine - some Giovanni sounds the closest yeah

[olive hull]

But yeah this is still not working. Regular Cynthia stinks and it's not quite enough to win. Battle is over after opponent sync. Max move deletes center. Fire Blast and Wild Charge finish off the others. Every time.

[zealous dust]

correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't dc nemona the only f2p champion unit?

[marble flume]

Blue + Pidgeot or Lodge Blue + Exeggutor

[zealous dust]

oh, yeah

duh

my bad

[humble gyro]

Is there a team to complete all of the missions v

[olive hull]

I need a team that can actually win, first of all

[humble gyro]

This works

I had Lithe on Cynthia

All the missions there

[sonic bear]

i do not have arc suits and struggling to finish ingo and emmet challenge and want to do all missions

any suggestions?

pls

[olive hull]

You could try a similar team to what I was trying, but good luck. At least Courtney may work and fulfills the villain role, but nothing else

[sonic bear]

i could try having 2 pairs working with each other to finish these broken characters while i finish missions one by one i guess

[small basin]

are you using protect for the max

also higher levels would probably help too

[olive hull]

No, for the sync. Would it even help? Max does 1k damage

Or it buys me one turn in which, it's the same outcome as my screenshot above as I need like 3 more turns to be able to win

[sonic bear]

i cannot see how i beat this stage with bertha, courtney and leaf

[true lagoon]

simple

lodge leaf has escape master and flameproof

[sonic bear]

and here i thought it was eevee

[fading walrus]

Well Eevee works too

But bertha needs status immunity if so

[sonic bear]

it got a bit easier but still hard

and tried making different grids

and if lodge leaf doesnt need status immunity, what about the para?

[zealous dust]

lithe lucky skill

i assume

[sonic bear]

this stage is atrocious damn

i bet that doing for all missions is going to be a suffering

without arc cynthia

[fading walrus]

Well the leaf Courtney bertha team clears 4/7

[sonic bear]

ik

[fading walrus]

Sygna, johto and champion are relatively easy to come by in good units too

[sonic bear]

sygna suit i can do lear cheese i guess

gholdengo

[sonic bear]

do you have grids and skills?

[alpine quiver]

I do! I'll post the PoMaTools link

[sonic bear]

kk ty

[snow spruce]

ez duo, 2 v 2

[fading walrus]

I've seen this at least 5 times now

The same exact pix

Pic

[sonic bear]

having arc suits seems easy mode

[snow spruce]

its almost as if they're the 2 best units in the game

[sonic bear]

yet having not so great banner ;-;

[sonic bear]

thanks

[alpine quiver]

Ik it's a minute long, but this was genuinely the luckiest thing ever

[fast glacier]

How exactly are you supposed to clear this

The status and then trapping kill

[alpine quiver]

At the risk of sounding snarky, just don't get status'd and trapped

I had to maintain my units clear of all conditions for the entire run. It's the only way

[grizzled portal]

Having one unit immune to burn and paralysis is enough, then something to remove trap with if you can

[stable storm]

1. Have a strong enough dd to kill before you die

2. Use units with immunity to trap or status immunity and add the other immunity by lucky skills.

3. Use an unit like ss Lear who makes your team immune to the status and interference

4. Constantly cure it

[small basin]

there are a few units with (team) condition nullification that are mvps in this fight, but situational

[stable storm]

these are some methods to fight the ebe

[small basin]

sc selene, variety hilda + elio, rika, ss lear, for some examples

[stable storm]

bertha, is a very good counter to this fight. She has escape artist on grid and you can give her status immunity. The enemies will only spread the conditions if the targetted unit is affected so if you have bertha as tank you can ignore the gimmick for most of the fight. She also has a strong ground nuke, has trap to remove the enemy's tripled defenses, good tanking in sand, attack drops and huge chip.

[short oyster]

Elaine at 3/5 makes this fight a cakewalk with her grid blocking trap and the statuses!

[fast glacier]

Omg ty

I finally figured out it

Arc Cynthia and Giovanni

[stable storm]

....you had both of them?

were you not using them together

[fast glacier]

I was but that was before I realized Bertha was the answer

I cleared it first with Eevee Cynthia and Bertha I built her

[stable storm]

misclick

[fast glacier]

If I didn’t have those two I don’t know what I was gonna do tbh

[stable storm]

glad to see that I could help

[fast glacier]

They weren’t event built ha ha

Only Giovanni at 3/5

Arc is still at 1

I wanted to use the roll I got for ss n but I used it for her

Came in handy

[stable storm]

were they not exed and caked?

[fast glacier]

They were

Except Cynthia at the time

But I caked her

[stable storm]

I am surprised the enemy even survived long enough

probably low rolls

[fast glacier]

Ye

[stable storm]

bertha is very useful for a f2p unit

[fast glacier]

I was scared because the nuke almost took us out

But 2% Bertha said “not today kiddo.”

[golden steppe]

Is it possible to do without an EX Bertha?

[half silo]

bertha is really good i can attest

it’s a miracle i have a ton of lucky cookies 💀💀💀

[golden steppe]

What grid did you use for her?

[half silo]

this one is really good!

i didn’t have weathered warrior so i used superduper effective 1/flameproof and both worked fine

although i had better luck using flameproof

gotta give a round of applause to arc steven, rei and bertha for carrying me through this event if i didn’t have them i would not be able to get this title at all 😔

[golden steppe]

Damn it

I keep dying to his sure crit sync

[marble portal]

saw that the UB doc for Argenta tends to have 3/5 Adaman; turns out 1/5 can work with this

[static cloud]

Can someone tell me why this Slowbro takes so little damage

[paper mural]

You need to apply interference (flinch, confusion, trap) on them.

[golden steppe]

^

And also replace their Psychic Terrain

[static cloud]

[tawny prawn]

I know this prob doesn't help. But this worked after a few tries.

[sacred haven]

Tips for Submas battle?

[golden steppe]

Last one?

[sacred haven]

Yep XD

[tawny prawn]

I'm stumped on 1 and 3 currently. Haven't played since SSR Cynthia. Whenever that was.

Maybe a bit later than her.

[true lagoon]

get status immunity and escape master

[sacred haven]

who has those?

[true lagoon]

status immunity is a cookie just have to look for that

or vice versa

[sacred haven]

any recommended pairs? XD

[golden steppe]

“The fight requires Ground damage and Trap/Confuse/Restrain to deal with them offensively and defensively you need to deal with Trap, Burn, and Paralyze” - Knight

[forest aurora]

This feels so close and yet it’s so wrong. Courtney solo just does not do enough damage and the twins still massively exploit that I’m still vulnerable to burns, and can only cure those twice.

Blue does tank them very nicely until Ingo drops the 100% burn Fire Blast. Then the hurt begins…

Maybe there’s something about the other pairs I’m using that isn’t correct?

I’m just not seeing how Bertha does anything at all in my current team outside of afflicting trapped. It’s just so much dead space on my team I could use if I had a better sync pair for trapping them…

[true lagoon]

grid nc blue for gobsmack and drop her then

[forest aurora]

Oh. Confuse works as well?

[true lagoon]

yes

confusion trap and flinch are interference

[forest aurora]

I see… they do have good resistance to flinch from the few procs I’ve seen from blue, but it’s nice they aren’t immune. Maybe they’re more vulnerable to confusion?

[true lagoon]

confusion is 8 turns

much better

[static cloud]

I used old reliable NC Blue instead of SST red. It was slow but it worked. And ironically I also have Elesa at 2/5 haha

[forest aurora]

I guess the bigger question then is what would I replace Bertha with… my ground pair lineup isn’t very impressive, so perhaps an enabler or someone who can ignore that stupid Tough skin 5 passive.

[crude drum]

Courtney & Camerupt

[true lagoon]

oh

actually have you tried gridding courtney with flameproof

dont know if you realized she has it but i thought she did

[forest aurora]

That would certainly be useful… I should also probably remind myself to also put flameproof on the second sync pair, whoever that ends up being.

Blue unfortunately will have to go without since he needs to have escape artist

That should in theory take care of all their gimmicks, now it’s just figuring out how to deal the damage before death by sure crit sync moves (as usual)

[olive hull]

So any suggested tweaks for making this work to nab most of the themes in one go? Normal Cynthia is so bad even at 3/5

[white badger]

anything I'd want for the Ingo and Emmet subway battle? Is there a way to stop Trapped and Paralysis from happening?

I know Lithe for PAralysis but is there anything for Trapped?

[paper mural]

If your tank can prevent them your other unit won't get it since it's apply to the team via viral 9.

[gentle wharf]

Escape Artist is the name of the skill

[white badger]

Who gets that?

Escape artist, I mean

[tawny prawn]

Lol. I haven't played.In a long while. Working with what I got. Still struggling with one and three.

[snow spruce]

no she's not

[olive hull]

Where's the sauce? It's like trying to win with a eggmon here

[gentle wharf]

It’s from the same cookie as Lithe haha

[tawny prawn]

Just set a curiosity. Would SS Serena work as ground damage for this match

[gentle wharf]

Dunno about who has it because with my comp I was flinching and killed them before they become immune and the status effects became a problem

[forest aurora]

Man… why does it always have to be a loss in the damage race against these EBEs?

Just always feels like I hit these guys like wet tissue paper. Nothing seems to actually do serious damage Barring Courtney’s Sync move

[olive hull]

Yeah, same. They're normalizing this crazy level of difficulty that demands only the top units at their best.

[forest aurora]

It wouldn’t be a problem if not for the Tough Skin 5 passive

That’s what is really constraining our options for damage on this one- you need either some form of Piercing Blows or a ground nuker

Outside of the unreliable Courtney, I don’t have the pairs to deal that kind of damage (or at least not to my knowledge)

[paper mural]

Try Bertha. Sand chip deals respectful dmg when the opponents have insane hp.

[forest aurora]

Bertha has been near useless from my experience. Unless it’s something about 3/5 Bertha, she doesn’t do much outside of very reliable trapping

They have lessen trap 9 or something similar, which negates most of the value of trap damage

[paper mural]

Well 3/5 ofc.

[forest aurora]

The only useful part of it is that it satisfies the interference passive so you aren’t doing less by not having them interrupted

[noble sapphire]

So…should I use Candies to have Giovanni do damage?

I need Kanto, Johto, and MC to clear the missions.

[fervent mulch]

Absolutely do not candy a unit for an EBE

[noble sapphire]

I don’t think I can clear the last three missions otherwise.

[fervent mulch]

A title isn’t worth losing 4 months worth of candies

Or certificates for that matyer

Alternatively you can clear each mission individually

[paper mural]

If you have other usage of that pair in the future it's fine.
Like if your one and only ground dd is him you can candy him just for general ground contents.

[white badger]

what units can affordably get Lithe and Escape Artist?

[noble sapphire]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1009557516369281075/1310586791153107024/7e00dc82-bf2c-4016-b0cf-5bd7f31bae30.png?ex=67466b50&is=674519d0&hm=42eef3d63396ab7bbdac61d24dbf750145c5932b620cdf6badc363b8dd3f735e&

This is every 5* that I have.

[white badger]

Um...?

[forest aurora]

Usually the best approach is to have a sync pair that gets one of those passives in their grid (usually at 1/5 or 2/5) and then get the lucky skill for the other.

It’s not a perfect solution, to be clear, and if you can get vigilance on whoever that tank is going to be, that will be for the best as well.

I like using NC blue for it myself since his recovery cures burns and he gets vigilance in his grid as well as lithe, but even he has the flaw that he isn’t burn immune.

Idk if there’s a sync pair that can get both Flameproof and Lithe (or escape artist to replace one of those), but that would be a good one to consider if such a pair exists.

[paper mural]

Melony can set field that prevent team status so roll escape artist on her = all team safe.
Sadly field is time-limited so using her you need to get lucky with MPR.

[forest aurora]

Safeguard does last a while, so it’s not terrible, just makes it a damage race to kill the subway bosses before you run out of time with the shield (and also before they pop second Sync)

[white badger]

How good would AC Cynthia be for this?

would I not need to worry about MPR as much?

[rain sorrel]

As in Arc Cynthia. She's supposed to be the main counter for this fight

Mine's only 1/5 and I only used one Sandstorm to clear

[white badger]

Ah. How much doe she counter? Just the DPS and type issue or...?

[rain sorrel]

She handles the bros' defensive passives because she has Sand Tomb to turn off their defensive passives. And they have Tough Skin and Ground Weak so she's perfect as a dps. You just need to account for Trap, Burn, and Paralyze, also their damage

[olive hull]

3/5 Elaine has Status Immunity and Escape Artist on grid, so she's basically made for this too. I think they only apply status through Go Viral, so if the target can't get status at all, the others are safe.

[white badger]

So probably NC Blue then? I have him at 3/5.

[stone scarab]

There are aoe moves with status, but they come pretty late in the fight

Eelektross has Discharge about halfway through the second sync cycle, and Chandelure will alternate Inferno and Heat Wave once Eelektross goes down

Heat Wave being the dangerous one in this situation

[rotund oasis]

I'd really nuke Chandelure out of the battle, he's a bit more dangerous tbh.

[sacred haven]

Does Bertha need to be EX'ed?

Also, Nita may also do the trick

[fading walrus]

It's recommended

But mine wasn't

[shut trellis]

What are some teams that can clear pasio subway 6 in 2 battles?

[rotund oasis]

i used these for 2 battles for Subway 6

[shut trellis]

Thanks. Why antitoxin

[rotund oasis]

they can poison

[shut trellis]

On which pairs

[rotund oasis]

Dahlia and Olympia for my run

NY Sabrina negates Status Conditions so that's nice.

so Lucian can kill

[snow spruce]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D79RhGZAC38
3x general pool Submas EB clear

[warm haven]

i havent done a single one of these battles

[snow spruce]

they give gems

[floral crypt]

That was hell

[tame canyon]

Ok I can't beat this (pls help)

[vagrant bough]

Why's my SSGio dealing negative damage?

[floral crypt]

You need to apply interference (Confuse, Trap, Flinch)

[vagrant bough]

Bruh, then why didnt the damage reduction passive pop up when they were attacked

Thank you

[true lagoon]

its tripled defenses

not dr

[vagrant bough]

Oh its a start of a battle kind of passive

Fair enough

Hoo boy, time to give another unit escape artist

Wait actually, Gholdengo hard counters the bros, right?

[rotund oasis]

Elaine can also fill in.

Gholdengo can definitely negate status conditions/interference though.

though, with SS Giovanni and Gholdengo in a team, that screams Gauge problems tbh.

[vagrant bough]

I had no gauge issues surprisingly

[rotund oasis]

whose your tank?

[vagrant bough]

Probably because of NCRosa lmao

[rotund oasis]

SS Gio EXR'd or nah?

[vagrant bough]

Nope, only Rosa and Lear are EXR

[rotund oasis]

cool

[vast stirrup]

Any help in the Pasio Subway EBEs?

[tepid wave]

Looks like I had to use Arc Suit Cynthia, Giovanni (Johto) and Elaine. Cynthia still packs a punch

[hasty bough]

Same question, couldn’t do it with the tips from yesterday

I’m going crazy over this

[true lagoon]

Is it possible with this or not enough rain

Vs anabel

[formal matrix]

You probably can, but have to time the rain

[zealous dust]

trying to complete the missions for track 6. i was able to get an initial clear with caitlin/lucian/ss morty, but luc cant stay alive long enough to keep spdef down. does he need to be ex'd or something? i feel like im missing something obvious

[fervent mulch]

I wonder how replaceable NCBlue is here

[calm sand]

For a Darach clear?

[fervent mulch]

This is for Thornton

[calm sand]

Ah

I remember Thorton requiring a negative status change

[fervent mulch]

I was thinking of using ncrosa but her animations are super long

This clear doesn’t have exr diantha so maybe she’ll make up for it

[golden steppe]

Am I supposed to try and kill him before 2nd sync?

[lime apex]

Finally all missions done

[uncut drum]

https://youtu.be/Vr4-K9m2Des

Showcasing the new Veevee

[sonic bear]

Need help doing all missions against the brothers, I am trying to beat it but I can't do it even with bertha, leafeevee and Jasmine lodge

I have no arc suits

And no nidoking gio

[uncut drum]

You need to have status immunity and/or escape artist on your tank since that's the main problem with them

Cause they'll either burn or paralyse you, and trap too

[sonic bear]

Jasmine has it

But she cant live a second fire blast

[uncut drum]

Yeah cause she's not a good tank

[sonic bear]

Then leaf gets targeted for those

I need teams with grids and skills and possibly something to grind in skill gears

This battle is so annoyingly hard

To get all missions

[uncut drum]

You can't go f2p to collect all the missions, so do only some at a time

[sonic bear]

I have all master fairs and most units used as far as i seen

Only thing is i don't have Giovanni and arc suits

[uncut drum]

You have regular Cynthia? She works too

[sonic bear]

Does she have enough damage?

[uncut drum]

Yes

[sonic bear]

And I have her at 1/5

[uncut drum]

Oh 1/5 probably not

[sonic bear]

I can candy her

But idk if its worth

[uncut drum]

Ehhhh I'd save for datamine

Cause if they'll introduce some strong ground unit then you can use that if you go for it

[sonic bear]

Doubt they will do that before it leaves

[uncut drum]

You have Elaine?

[sonic bear]

Elaine and eevee? Yes 1/5

[uncut drum]

Good. Elaine has escape artist at 1/5, and if you equip her with status immunity it'll check Ingo and Emmet's gimmicks

[sonic bear]

With a bunch of support candies to use

[uncut drum]

How many you got?

[sonic bear]

Like 5-6 cause no master supp in a hot minute

[uncut drum]

While I'd personally wait, throwing 2 candies at her is worth. Still, I think you should try at 1/5 before going 3/5

[sonic bear]

Kk, any grids, skill gears or just that?

Maybe setup

And guess going to be with bertha as main attacker

And leaf for another support

[uncut drum]

What other ground units you have?

[sonic bear]

Maxie, Courtney

That are good attackers

[golden steppe]

So close 😭

[sonic bear]

Also regular cynthia

[zealous dust]

isn't 3/5 elaine just a good support in general? wouldn't hurt to throw a couple candies at her regardless

[sonic bear]

Ik

[uncut drum]

Then use Maxie with them

[sonic bear]

K

[golden steppe]

Should I replace Leaf with Arc Steven

Imma try that

[sonic bear]

This fine?

[golden steppe]

OH MY GOD FINlly

[sonic bear]

I can't unlock cap right now

Here’s what I used

Oh that’s better

[sonic bear]

Finally

Now the missions

Elaine is hella broken

For no reason

Now need to do sinnoh, johto, champion and sygna suit

Sslear should cover sygna suit

Now the others i suffer

If anyone can recommend 1-2 teams for these 4 theme skills i greatly apreciate it

[alpine quiver]

Dead run, but hmmmm

[sonic bear]

That fire blast coming in hot

[alpine quiver]

Getting a Champion through this F2P is not easy

[sonic bear]

Idk how i am going to do the other theme skills

And not f2p

Except no arc suits and giovanni

[alpine quiver]

What missions do you have left?

[sonic bear]

.

I guess i could try ssmorty, Maxie and elaine

For johto

[alpine quiver]

Lodge Jasmine is my GOAT

[sonic bear]

Welp she didnt give me wins

[alpine quiver]

She gives wins

[sonic bear]

I saw that and couldnt do it

Too much crit

[alpine quiver]

What about a team of maybe Lodge Jasmine, base Cynthia, and Bertha?

[alpine quiver]

Holy shit, it's possible

[amber zodiac]

That stage is making me more nervous that it should...

[alpine quiver]

It's brutal

for F2P, at least

[tawny prawn]

Took so many tries i lost count. Now just match 3 and the last one.

[golden steppe]

STUPID BERTHA

SHE DIDNT CRIT ANY OF HER SYNCS

[alpine quiver]

You get used to it

https://tenor.com/view/dead-inside-anime-loveiswar-kaguya-gif-13628541

[spring hazel]

What’s the strategy for this stage?

I don’t seem to be dealing any significant damage to the middle trainer

[tawny prawn]

Prevent the rain

[golden steppe]

Replace rain and drop their defenses

Would’ve won if Bertha proc’d another sandstorm mpr

[spring hazel]

well, that’s what I’ve been doing with Acerola and Red but even so I don’t deal enough damage

The side trainers get defeated just fine but the middle one barely loses any health

[golden steppe]

Grassy terrain doesn’t replace rain if I remember correctly

I could be wrong

[tawny prawn]

I think you're right

[spring hazel]

Acerola’s sunny day does tho

[golden steppe]

Oh she has Sunny Day?

Hmmm

[spring hazel]

ye

but even her removing it and red lowering their sp defense the middle trainer is too tough

[tawny prawn]

You need to drop regular defense no?

[golden steppe]

You’re supposed to lower their defense

Not sp.def

[tawny prawn]

Ok I'm like I spent ages doing SS Erika work

Physical grass attacker or Tech

[spring hazel]

o

well I mean

lance does that too

but still little damage

I think

Lemme try again

Do they take more physical damage?

[golden steppe]

Don’t think so but they have Tough Skin 5

Lance wouldn’t do much against them because it’s not super effective

Do you have SS Leaf?

[tawny prawn]

SS Erika can work. Adaman is better ofc

Even at 1/5 for adaman.*

[spring hazel]

Sadly no

I do have Erika tho

[tawny prawn]

What's her investment?

[spring hazel]

2/5

[spring hazel]

managed to pass with her either way tho, thanks

[sonic bear]

Could try but not confident on my cynthia

[sonic bear]

Also Jasmine Alone can't heal much

[spring hazel]

fuck it we goin with coocoo crazy team to defeat the ice challenge

[arctic mist]

I also happened to get 1/5 Trevor & Florges on the 25th. Any advice for Pasio Subway's 7th battle? I'm struggling to see any means to beat the stage, let alone missions...

[golden steppe]

The whole gimmick of the fight is to trap both Ingo and emmet, you also have to make sure you don’t get trapped yourself or get inflicted by a status condition

[tawny prawn]

What's the gimmick for match 3? Physical moves and watch out for sleep/flinch. Am I missing something

Else

Trying to figure out if I can brute force it. Don't have great fighting physical units. Wally and Bea

[arctic mist]

And how would I best do that? I'm struggling to build teams for this...

[golden steppe]

Let’s see

[alpine quiver]

Hate Wave

[golden steppe]

Hmmm you have a lot of decent options

SS Gio should be able to carry you

You need a tank with both Escape artist and status immunity

[alpine quiver]

These are separate, back-to-back clips 😭

[arctic mist]

...

[arctic mist]

Hmmm.... What went wrong..?
I did give Status Immunity (grid) and Escape Artist (lucky) to SS. Blue...

[golden steppe]

Ideally you would want to kill Emmet before he syncs with sure crit next

And like I said you also need someone to trap Ingo and Emmet or at least give them a negative status change

An example of this is Elaine (which I’m pretty sure is one of units you’re supposed to use in that stage)

I think Bertha could work as well

At least to trap them

[high zephyr]

guys how to beat emmet ingo in the event? keep dying fast

[golden steppe]

^

[high zephyr]

ah i see, im using cynthia to trap at least the one who sync but died fast due to got trapped

should i use lucky skill or is there a pair to prevent getting trapped?

[golden steppe]

You won’t get trapped as long as your tank has both status immunity and escape artist

[high zephyr]

ah i see, only the tank is enough, using steven but i guess i will need to get luck skill for him

[golden steppe]

Elaine & Eevee have both in her grid but Status immunity is locked behind 3/5

[high zephyr]

is there other that can be use beside elaine? i dont have her

[golden steppe]

Hmm

You could use Arc Steven as tank but he gets status immunity at 4/5…

[high zephyr]

damn thats a lot, i think i can use tapu fini for statis but ehat about trap?

[earnest panther]

it's crazy that I can tell they are separate instances because of the music.

[alpine quiver]

Lol

[paper mural]

3/5 actually.

[mystic lion]

Is anyone else struggling with Subway Part 6?! I feel like I do no damage. The hints say to trap them and it doesn’t help.

[marble flume]

They also take 50% reduced damage from non-supereffective hits

[alpine quiver]

ONE MORE MISSION TO GO

[mystic lion]

Ohh that makes way more sense. Well that sucks when trying to beat the missions.

[left crow]

which supports are immune to trap?

Would a support with solar immunity be immune to trap?

[sacred sphinx]

Are we able to use quick cure or do they set trap multiple times

[small basin]

they set it every attack

ingo does at least

[sacred sphinx]

Man

[valid onyx]

You can use SS Lear circle

to avoid it isn't it?

[valid onyx]

Rika with her grid can, I used her

[frail kraken]

what about burned tho

[earnest panther]

Burned won't happen until later in the battle

[frail kraken]

hmm. im gonna have to try the escape artist stuff then, and pray paralysis does not screw me over

[olive hull]

I am once again looking for a way to beat the last subway stage and also get the themes. Can normal Cynthia do it? I know this stage was made for Arc Cynthia and the normal one is so underpowered it's hard to make up for it. I know 3/5 Elaine is required, which I have.

[quick pewter]

I hate. I hate. I hate this stupid Ingo and Emmet battle.

Either I cannot deal damage fast enough, I get shredded by statuses before I can do anything, or both

And all of the clear teams in-game have either 4/5 arc Steven or arc Cynthia. Of which I have neither.

[fading walrus]

Bertha is non exed

Gio can be subbed out for Courtney

Since he's 3/5 without exr

[quick pewter]

Ughhhhh EXing units I don't care about

[stable storm]

what's the new ub

[north chasm]

morgan w latias, we dont know any info yet

could be bug, ghost, or dragon weak

[stable storm]

didn't we get it's legend rule

[north chasm]

its probably somewhere in the text dump

lemme peruse

[stable storm]

oh it's attack defense raise based

[fading walrus]

So a mirror of Evelyn

But Phys

[lunar sedge]

Does the new Bugsy debuff at all?

Haven't looked into him

[low coral]

legend_rule_6110_001] The first time Latias’s HP reaches 60% or
lower, it endures with that HP.
[legend_rule_6110_002] Powers up the opponent’s moves, sync move,
or both when allies’ stats are lowered.
[legend_rule_6110_003] When each opponent’s Defense or Sp. Def—
or Attack or Defense—is raised, the damage
they take is reduced.

[alpine quiver]

So
Close

[olive hull]

Even if that works, it's not gonna get me Sygna Suit, or Champion, or Johto

Free me from this insanity

[north chasm]

so impervious will be key

(nc blue lmao)

or arc steven

[stable storm]

do we know the weakness

[stable storm]

wdym

[north chasm]

he has impervious

on grid

we dont know the weakness yet

im trying to think of a ghost bug or dragon unit that counters these specific gimmicks but im not sure

[quick pewter]

Someone should like. Reach into my account and give me three Omni candies.

That would be cool

[north chasm]

well i guess arc lance debuffs defenses

[snow spruce]

so new UB is - debuff them and dont get debuffed?

[north chasm]

maybe its dragon

[quick pewter]

Steel even though it makes no sense /j

[north chasm]

dragon is making sense actually, arc lance debuffs the defenses and alt leon debuffs atk

watch me be wrong tho

oh yeah alt leon also has impervious

ok i really think its gonna be dragon then

[fading walrus]

So urm

How about that rayquaza "stage"
