#Battle Rally
1 messages · Page 85 of 1

I wanna say maybe fall 2023
Ik neither roxanne or phoebe can confuse but they debuff a lot (phoebe can block with tm) and roxanne can can buff accuracy which they also debuff
They could have just say restrain
got to to lvl10, hard battle is giovanni, mid is nemona and ez is masked royal
Damn, I got Nemona for A10 VH. Luckily it's support so I have SS Acerola saved up
You also need rebuff or you ain't do any damage. Watch out for that 60% tick that sets up ET and also remove rebuff
Tech/Support so it's NC Leaf
Guess she can't sync until past 60%
Definitely watch out for that 60%. The side will always queue up a Discharge and that's gonna ruin you
Damn, she hits way too hard
Because I'm without boost
So I'm forced to buy PDR
Actually, I'd rather do Hard Nita instead
siebold singlehandedly carrying that team
Even Nita was really rough on me, though Trip Up refused to proc even with No Quarter
Not really, had to switch him out for BP Clemont 
That was... prompt. The Oct 1 update added the arc suit battle challenge to the Rally already.
I guess I sort of expected it to be added, like, next time there was a Rally update
Letseee ...Status Change (Rebuff/Restrain). Sides Wise Entryx2. Drop their DEF (+damage & sync up) & SP.ATK
Clair has damage reduction 8 so there's really no good way around it unless I wanna burn a Piercing Blows here
Wow, this Leon battle sure is annoying. Do I need certain units to win? Or should I go down a level?
Needs WTZ, Eterrain in particular
If you are running other wtz, your team will need anti sleep
Electric terrain blocks sleep?
Iirc o.o
Oh also, need to status condition them
Guess SS Hau is a must there
If its strike/sprint, ss lear would block the status conditions mmhmm
DeNA thought we wanted more challenges 
Good luck to those who insist on not stacking upgrades.
These days I'll always spend 500 at minimum
Inflation hitting hard on Rally too huh
Mmhmm same
There is no way to set off the eléctric terrain in nemona battle?
Pesky BCs on the way up and 1/2 of the new UBs are... Urgh
Psychic Terrain?
Grassy Terrain users?
Oh i see i was trying to use Cinthia in that battle
Just be careful on her sync, 60% endurance, she clears her status change
And eterrain again
I used the sandstorm and was wondering why the terrain wasnt being set off
She is destroying me
Uh whats your role bonus, upgrades, hard battle, and whatnot?
So even later UBs are going to be harder than the base ones it seems
Sandstorm is weather, not terrain. Terrain has only grass, electric and psychic
I'd hate to fight Noland
Haha ohko go brrr
Noland is kinda easy if you have like 3 theme boosts and support role bonus
I HATE THE MASKED ROYAL BATTLE
he shreds status and I can't deal damage
Yeah i got confused because ground zone
This is after the max move. I should just give up. There's no path forward here
You can delete his endures so easy.
I thought ground zone would set off the terrain
Zone != TERRAIN
NC leaf blue and Morty and they can't beat the masked royal or even come close
Yeah i know now ty
Masked Royale needs status condition and spd debuffs
And atk and sp.atk debuffs
Leer doesn't do speed
Youre missing spd debuffs
But he shreds status every time time I go to deal good damage
Discharge with HE might look good
I'm so gonna miss Lucy UB 
Is the word you mean "sheds", like he removes it automatically?
When he uses TMs iirc
Self cleanse with tenporary immunity does sound like cancer 
Needs aggressive status conditions and stat debuff
So like Tornadus but worse?
Yeah
He clears stat conditions when he uses a tm so be careful for those
The sides iirc also does the same if they use a tm
Is this Nita battle new too?
But it clears them so constantly I can't deal damage
Past leafs sync I didn't do any damage and then died
Yes there is. I already blew points because I forgot to switch my team up
Blew at least 750 points
Might not even reach 9k
And I've gotta figure these out. Can't just step down every time I get a new one
Okay, so I can't beat Nita either. What can I do?
Nita requires weather change & spd debuffs
Which I can't do with the boosts I've trapped myself into
Leon is UB right? Anything in shop to help?
Remember I'm not even close to winning any of them so far
So it's Masked Royal, Nita, Leon. Never battled any of them before. And I can already tell these are gonna be the worst ones for a while
Does this automatically make Leon winnable?
Yeah idk how to have a team that can debuff speed and stats and status all at once. Feels like an Oleana battle who I don't have
Uhhh might need Antisleep on your team
Apple Cup doesnt seem to prevent status conditions
Looks good if you can afford it up to a10. Crit Pow should help a lot
Electric terrain stops it though
Oh right youve got ss piers.
Can status reliably at all though, so it's just him and Lance desperately trying to land para
Gl then o.o
The thing about leon is that he can clear field effects
Hence why id go for antisleep ls
Well, if the opponent can cheat, I should be able to cheat too
So yeah, Apple Cup trivializes it. Maybe that 500 point penalty will eventually be a requirement in clearing Rally with these ridiculous full Master Fair required unit battles they keep throwing in there
Thanks for the help though. Hopefully next week's is more forgiving
Its 25 cost.... Onsale items are really good o.o
1 more hr o.o
I just had the (dis)pleasure of fighting Nita's UB for the first time.
I won in one try, since I stacked enough boosts. But wow, what the hell?
I really don't want to do another one tonight though
What role bonuses and upgrades?
Basically for a net 300 points 
Freebie: Bug (ew)
Early shop: stat multi for Kalos (yesss)
Late shop: Debuff on hit and damage multiplier for any debuff, in the same shop (don't mind if I do...)
Role bonus vs Nita: Tech&Support
Oh hell yeah
Team was (my own) Nita for Bulldoze, Neo Serena for role bonus and debuff spam, and Neo Leaf to double the debuffs to keep ahead
So yeah this was very close to optimal conditions
And even so. What the hell, Nita???
Barely winnable?
I wasn't expecting three sandstorms but phase-skipped them perfectly (Neo Leaf sync at 80% sandstorm, hit to 50% sandstorm, Solar Sync in grid overwrote the 50% sandstorm)
How much stacks of power and theme?
My Nita was at 2% at the end
3 Kalos, 3 Debuff multi. So that's effectively 16× damage
3 themes ain't enough anymore
Sugoi. Nita tanking is real
When enemy Nita synced, I was freaking offended to see all the debuffs vanish
Need like 5 just to take the hits and another 2 attack boosting ones to get you over the edge
I might have to nudge my budget up a step, ye
3 and 3 was comfortable until now. With the new fights in, though... Yikes
Two phase thresholds, three sandstorms, and debuff dispel on sync all at once, is excessive even for a UB
I couldn't believe it when I saw the sandstorm kick in on my attempt. So just infinite sandstorm, I thought?
close e-freakin'-nough to it, yeah
Uhhh iirc she does sandstorm on entry and endurance markers
But the hippo on the side can infinitely sets sandstorm
So kill that thing first if anything
Yeah, that one set it
I went overkill
Uhh ss morty and giving leon sun? Really? O.o
Electric in team starting bonus, bought it twice, VH was Palmer and I was close to the win so I bought a bonus in damage when spdef up for 50 and was enough.
Full boosted lucky area 9 
Not bad!
Actually good I think!
We will see
2.0x
Wow rude
And neither Lillie nor Clavell are Gym Leaders
Maybe I get either of their bonus and then SST Red can go to town

lets gooooooo!
Fighting Upgrade. Not as good but also not as bad. At least got some powerhouses

And the first area bonuses are... big yikes!
At least that one will go down easily 
Was gonna complain for the initial bug boost but.. Nvm
It seems I passed down my 3-week streak of strike/field start 
A9 lucky. What a blessing! 
And palmer A10, in just counting whether is worth going triple 1.5 VH or triple 2.0 Hard
750 (300x2.5) vs 800 (200x4). Triple 2.0 Hard it seems
What is this! 
I was dead even before the opponent reach 95% HP!
This looks impossible 
Iono's BC, so you must inflict a status
I see!
Looks like I have to give up on role bonus here for a Unova pair, or use NC Cheren here itself!
I should try replacing Lear with SC Irida I think! 
You should try with NC Cheren, and let Ryuki tank
He is quite good at being a soft tank, but the problem is still the lack of status hmmm
Can try Ryuki + Irida + Leon
Or Potionchu for less para chance but has recovery
Ok! I see!
I think I am close to beating that stage with SC Irida!
I need a status condition! 
I will try with MC Pikachu because I am saving Leon for A10 Support Field (for DD)!
Why does battle rally need so many Field/Sprint Units, they barely release characters with those attributes.....
E3 GANG
BR was created for Sprint / Field units. Field units dominate the mode since they typically have buffed stats on entry, and they hit hard.
I tried those team (except NC Cheren because I am saving him for later) but only this team was close so I tried with some good flinch rng and it was done after several resets!
wish i could color these ;-;
Oh your Iono is caked? I was wondering why do you use her
This run is full of BCs! 
I shouldn't say it but I am enjoying the pain!
Yep she is!
2.4k points in the bag xD
Chat we have lost him

Hell yeah
Not bad for this week. managed to get over 9.750 points for a 4 week month mmhmm.
Evelyn
Apple cup can kill her very easily 
She is not that powerful like Anabel and entei
Excellent
sst red gaming?
aiyo. gl.
There no way you can do a 100/200 spent points run if you get one of the new stages A10 (maybe if you drop difficulty if you really want to keep the "spending" low, but you are technically still spending by reducing difficulty)
Ok maybe if you get ultra jelly or guard chocolat and you spent 100 at max
you can still do 100/200 spent, its just that, you typically dont have matching pairs at max 3.

I forgot to use AS Cynthia in a area before too! 
Could have scored better (10k), but now I can't! 
Yes but you will probably have to use some 1x pairs, because you need very specific units to clear with few boosts
Wew on sale
I don't think I need that! 
Shouldn't have forgot that!
Just missed the 10k by a small margin! 
Almost 10k xd
This took 12 minutes.
Ghost upgrade with poisom upgrade in shop
Am i cooked
i had ghost today.....
you might have to get creative. .-.;
At least ghost has plenty of supports?
you guys get so many CS rounds I’m jealous
today I had to roll with kalos upgrade
a grass weak battle challenge featuring some sightseer on very hard forced me to go down to hard
he drops accuracy on entry, anyone know who he might have been intended for?
this one
Alright it’s this pattern but still nothing to replace my godawful villain boost
On the flip side, no sprint field
I see Crit:Power, I buy it every round after lol
And shop bought out woo!
3 more weeks left, time to stock up
I got the Vouchers and Sync Orbs, only 5*
left!
I will get those next week!
Clutch!
Area 5 or 6?
Anabel Hard?
Vh anabel
Oh yikes
Area 6
No damage upgrades?
Nop
How many minimum theme boost do I have to buy for doing atleast hard battle?
Yikes. I think youre gonna need to use an Apple Cup... You actually need stat debuffing mode on both battles.
Nah, i can manage H Evelyn
It also depends on who youre up against + role bonus
It's Anabel that RUIND everything
Yeah I mean worst scenario of Anabel/Nita and Support Field or Support Sprint!
I havent gotten anabel lately
I dare poma to let me have anabel tech + support 
I think utmost 3 theme boosts can beat any Hard UBs!
Palmer needs you to be quick, that's all. You don't need to be themed or bulky
So dmg or crit boosts
Good enough
I am asking this because generally I have one and buy one theme so two theme boosts most of the time carry me for A10 Hard battle!
So 1 more theme boost might carry me I hope!
5 should be enough though
Almost died .-.; but yeah
Ive.got.better damage when i mix theme boosts and damage upgrades
The utility 150 unfortitious one js so awesome
If you have the right units you don't even need the boosts at hard
That is
If roles are helping you
Wonder if I should be glad the Rally update happened so recently
Because it's only a matter of time until the last member of the Paldean E4 arrives on Pasio and we get CSMM for the Paldea League. I'm worried about what's in it, and worried about it showing up in the Rally eventually
I haven't had a bonus stage for 3 weeks now...
The scenario I'm picturing is a player struggling their way through the new fights to area 9, getting the loud "maybe it's a Lucky stage!" foreshadow, only to reveal HERE COMES POPPY WITH A STEEL-TYPE CHAIR!
Stuck at this rn
...
Ended with 5050 points. A bit rough, but not too bad.
My first 10k+ run.
Nice
Yeah. Could have gotten higher but was a bit gun shy on using my stupid powered units.
Finished Evelyn with NC Leaf, NC Serena and SSA Cynthia. Had to buy another Sinnoh boost just to make it simpler. Not having AoE damage kinda sucks.
This week is kinda gross still. (I stop at A10 and finish on Monday each week)
Fire Boost and only have 4 Support options not counting Arc Steven for A10
Not exactly my most armed arsenal
uhhhh
long story short… i’m cooked!
is it worth bringing sst red even if he doesnt have a role bonus
i unfortunately burned nc blue early
(i had the cheren special stadium stage i kinda needed him 😭 )
i did it anyways 💀

...I'm doomed
One of the worst seeds, at least I have Kanto buff
I can't math
the only way you're breaking even with a hard battle is going 6 matching pairs in hard vs 3 matching in vh
That works
Wow,youre going to have a field day with this one

Also finished, managed to get water a d main character upgrades to salvage the awful start
Lucky stage saved me, but 10.5k+ points is not bad.
Last week only 10.38k because of my stupid mistakes, Nita
no lucky stage, I could get 12k points 
GIVE ME PRACTICE MODE
For the record, I dont have many ex roles at all yet since they didnt exist before my hiatus
In time i will hit 10k points
Everyone starts at one point, don't worry
Yep. Do it at your own pace
I will say tho, happy to have finally completed an all very hard run
No NC Blue I'm guessing
i used him on an earier stage sadly
i got the uh
cheren pasio special stadium
that stage heavily wants nc blue so
ooof.
strike/support role bonus or just either? o.o
i think it was strike/tech
I would've saved NC Blue for A10 TBH since he can counter the majority of them all by himself
i wanted to but i really had no choice
i wasnt beating that cheren stage without him
After a few months you will catch-up to that!
And a few more weeks after that you will have more cakes than you ever need!
(If you are new, and, you are F2P)!
not good
repeat seeds
Same seed and same theme boost, still I am below 10k and I am fine with that!
You have much more ExRs than me!
nvm TMR got hand
I need someone to constantly inflict poison
who is not named Geeta
The team is 3/5 Oleana and 3/5 SSA Cynthia
Arven was the tank in my original team and even though he had debuff the problem comes from the lack of reliable statu
Damn, 2 new UBs
Unlucky
Last week TMR tortured me
Does he specifically need poison
I can totally clear H Nemona, but TMR is not out of reach either
Any status works but poison is preferred for Oleana to debuff him to oblivion
Oh wait Oleana won't work if it's not constant poison
Why does he have so many status cures grrrr
Yeah, really anoying
Hyper Belch Pal Victor stonks (only two tries tho)
Does MR hit hard ?
I already used him 
Not really, since Cynthia is very robust
Can you stall him long enough so that 30% poison is workable?

For not hard hitting stage i normally stall the stage a bit to kill side before touching mid
Everyone dies to the third sync even with Vigilance
Lemme try with a poison inflictor
James go
Oh man I haven't been able to play BR since they added in the new stages 👀
It's a mess
Can confirm, got Nemona in VH and couldnt beat it so had to battle Evelyn at Hard
Last week got Nita in VH 
I got Noland and Leon. Thankfully with a semi-correct role
what role? tech?
Support for Noland (so I can use Lana)
Field for Leon (so I can use SST Red)
Oh come on not this piece of shit
Which Striker or Sprint has any way of removing/preventing his buffs
They're all Tech or Support aren't they
NC Bianca?
Does she stop his buffs?
Not enough, I can't survive the stupid earthquake spam after he does his stupid TM after his stupid sync
I want to shove rusty nails into the car of whoever decided to put this garbage in BR
Shop items are worthless this run
trial giver upgrade, what if i delete the game
Nah, I'd retire.
i got that once
at least the ss tapu girls have ex roles now
but they are the only good units w that theme
Don’t know how to feel abt this….
Well I got Area 2 with Sprint and Support
:/
and VH stage is Ghost
Ig I gotta do Hard
I mean, the score is better than last time
Foxanne counters him with her sync having the Topsy Turvy effect
Mind you she needs a strike cake
why so many different upgrades?
1 or 2 theme upgrades is fine, but 3 is kinda pushing it.

I actually went three theme upgrades this week lol
it's totally fine, especially when you want to get through a comfortable run
three different themes give you flexibility
It was funny. The 3rd theme is for a gamble in one of the areas it worked horribly but then by A10, I have one unit for each theme
Nice
Ended up buying Ultra Jelly for areas 9 and 10, got a 2400 point lucky stage area 5
whose your vh fight?
Ohh interesting
Hmm I could spare a cake maybe
How badly do I wanna smash Giovanni's face in
- Unova starter
- Johto was on sale early on, bought because I'm like 90% sure I'll bring NC Silver at A10 (Strike/Sprint)
- Alola because I got stuck at A9 because apparently none of the 6 Tech/Supports I have are either of those regions, I just did not have enough stats/AoE to survive/kill the sides, and also because I have SS Gladion that I can bring to A10 also
hrm
Luckiest person in Battle Rally!
Maybe because you whale in BR! 
If you ever got to a point again in BR where you are forced to using 3 supports , try using Hop as attacker!
It worked for me many a times!
Also using one striker will give you more points on VH (600) than using three single role bonus on hard (500)!
Is this some kind of a sick joke?
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
OH BOY I SURE HOPE MY THUNDERBOLT RED CAN DO WELL ON A10
Confusion works. Gl o.o
Nope, not the problem here
Usually i can challenge VH A10
And ofc i saved TRed for A10
You know what Nemona’s condition is?
Wait a bit.
Terrain Change Required (Entry, Sync, 60% HP), Use Confuse, Status Change clear each sync.
Check your shop. If you have access to mpizza, Bianca for Psychic Terrain
Nah i’m just gonna do Hard
TRed and Leaf for Evelyn is better
Also my upgrade is Villain 🤡
Max despair then
This BR can suck it
Summary of this week!
I forgot to use Cynthia A7, should have used her for 10k points!
support/field cool!
So if you get an upgrade that doesn't fit most of your exr units, should you burn them at the earliest applicable stage so that later on you can put a unit that fits the upgrade on the team?
I'm assuming you are referring to cases where there are 2 floors with the same role bonuses?
You can try saving them if you wanna gamble that the next dupe will be a Lucky
But otherwise just burn ASAP
Especially if they lack survivability
Like Sprint/Strikes
I do the opposite for team building!
Yes it's a risk
Saving them and not using them would be risk too!
That's what I mean, there is a possibility that the saved team is unable to clear the higher floor
You are correct
Oh mb! I didn't read it correctly
So it's a risk, either score higher with a Lucky, or face a tough battle
Risk depends on how confident you are in your team
For example, I'm more likely to risk my AnniMay/SSTRed/HViola team than say my NC Silver/SS Gladion/Rei team, because the latter has no defenses/mitigation except really fast kills
To be fair there's only 1 or 2 times where the risk backfired i.e. I could not beat the floor at all with the saved team, which needed me to drop 1 of the doubles
The rest, either it's not a Lucky but I beat it anyways so no loss, or it's a Lucky and I win big
At this point in the game I get more Battle Rally Medals than needed so I don't mind using double bonus team earlier!
Two weeks ago I faced a Lucky Area on Tech Support in later Areas but I have already used most of them initially, still I won't mind that much!
#1009564564821639379 message
yeah it's this seed with ghost upgrade, so not too many stellar exr units to utilize the boost
i have ssrc and sc irida but there isn't a strike tech stage 
If they aren’t double boosted anywhere, just save them in case you hit a harder stage towards the end and need the boost
My plan is generally to save the double boosted units for the latest stage in A1-A9 and use them there in case of Lucky stage.
(I also messed up this week and forgot Field + Support was in my seed twice and of course it was a Lucky Stage. Ah well, RIP 600 Points)
A10 has such a high chance of being unwinnable due to boosts and whatever combo you get that I just assume I’ll need to drop to Hard most of the time now
I thought sstr bmove would work fine even if thorton doesn't have any rebuff lol
I didn't have any rebuff unit left 
Got this seed and the free upgrade is Normal. Should I change to Water instead?
Normal is pretty much a limited type unless you got EXR Anabel and Larry
So yes changing to Water is a good idea, you probably should look for other types that cover your Field roster too
That is a lot of Field
Idk if this is pure cope, but I'm starting to come around with Support/Tech
I'm starting to run some issues on full Tech/Support nodes that sometimes want an actual support unit
what's this stage's gimmick again
Yep that’s why i tech’d a support lol
Maybe I'll start actually doing that lmao
What's the weakness?
fairy mid
Hmmm I wonder if this was made with SS Gladion in mind
probably yeah they're all rivals ?
they just hit like a truck and i don't do substantial damage..tbf I'm trying to run a janky bonuses team
He has Gobsmacked
How do you know all this?
I tried it but I don't get a thing from that
so i can just search a keyword, and done....
ah that's my updated sheet.
I don't mean your sheet!
I mean i tried reading pastebin but I don't get a thing
oh.
well the one on my sheet is basically a dumbdown version of the pastebins
so you can counter when needed
Wait can you please share me your updated sheet so I can easily read and understand stuff from there!
Lucky Area, unlucky seed
yeah team was just badly designed because of bonus maxing, threw arc Steven at it to kill before poison
realise that now
Gotta be a full bonus!
I would love that lucky area
oak nidorino
And VRachel/Sawyer
yup i can full max this one
I have 5 or 6 support/sprint units, and not one of them is Nidoak
sorry. its diffiicult to copy ;-;
classic red and nc meloetta, but you might not have them
huh interesting i don't have any supp field or field supp yet
which is what Volo should have been but Alas
Is it from cs?
Guh
I was asking about this for BCs info only!
Thank you so much!

It would be easier for me to get the info about it now
#1009564564821639379 message
you can copy the battle rally stages if you need to.
but a searcher helps a lot xD
Yeah I am doing that rn!
The BCs specially
Your sheet is very helpful
ou thanks
honestly, you can just copy the entire spreadsheet
but let me work on it so you can use the stage selector
It's okay thankyou Rei, but I don't need the stage selector b
hum wokay.
@mental raft https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yrpszZUbC9hGrlIoqcQon7hJqWVKLR-uEsSraZF-Rro/edit?gid=452026996#gid=452026996 there we go lol
:D~
sheet stolen. thank you rei-sama. 
What's the point of this sheet anyways?
Make a copy and have the battles at your finger tips.
The entire spreadsheet
you can quickly find out the gimmicks of a stage by looking up mid's name and weakness
Eh, no thanks
I enjoy rally without it

Ill update the sheets when we get another br update
Caster out here just rawdogging the BR experience


You got it
Doesn’t work for me
you need to copy the entire spreadsheet in order it to work
File -> Make a copy
then open it on your drive.google.com
Aye, trying to do it on my phone but it wouldn’t load the list of stages
hmm
i managed to get it to work by downloading it into a xlsx
and entire spreadsheet copy
It works fine in Google Sheets in my phone
yeah dont just copy the first sheet.
you need the entire spreadsheet (the multiple sheets)
I assume the back sheets keep the stage data?
yep
you could make your own selector
its simple enough
Caster do you abstain from using pomatools for the seed too?
honestly if i did that, that'd be funny though.
Doom said once he remember many seeds!
Nah
I just don't use aile's sheets to figure out which fighr I'm doing
Aile?
Rei_hunter
Easy, just buy avery
No
So I tried it, gave it an honest shot, but I don't have enough survivability or damage to burst Gio down. The strat works but the numbers aren't there. Trying to force it to work would just use up too many points, so Hard Anabel it is.
Does this mean I candied and EXRd Foxanne for nothing? Maybe, but she's cool anyways so I don't mind, and it's not like this is the last time I'll see Gio. Perhaps the next time we meet my roles would be more favorable
Rally still relies on luck. Not everytime you can get a perfect run from having good theme and upgrade boost which could help to build your comp better for a10
I'm aware
My annoyance mostly stems from the idiotic UBs which were already stupid at base and clearly not designed to fit this game mode yet we're forced to fight them every week with their asinine unit checks
And they keep making more of them
Get ready for a stage where if you don't have SC Ramos (2025) you just insta lose
We're basically at that point anyway
They'll release banana cup when apple cup alone is not enough anymore
It will have Damage Guard next too!!
Mmmm choco banana
That’s why I’m expecting to drop to Hard on A10 with most runs now
I mean, I once got Nemona's UB as my VH level. I have all the counters, but no boost means I'm pretty fucked, so I just went to Hard Nita instead, but even she proved too much for me
It's not just the UBs you have to worry about, it's also the power ups too
Yeah that's what I mean, we're meant to play around with the boosts but the UB stages are so hyper specific that you can easily just have no options
Yeboiii
must be nice
tbh... for bc stuff, i'd rather have a bit more theme boosts like 2 or so....
Another Sprint/Support DPS when
especially above area 5 and whatnot.
Paulo's back is breaking from carrying too hard
He's got 4 Crit
That's already plenty
Well maybe not for Astonish lmao
the only good decent boost i've encountered is crit
(okay i skipped sinnoh but it wouldn't be useful for any other stages)
askually it's Phantom Force dps 
Skipping Sinnoh? That’s like my second best region theme
(It makes sense if you don’t have a lot of good Sinnoh units, just a little surprising is all)
it's not that i don't hav good sinnoh units, they just don't really fit into this run
After update my VH lineups in A10 never saw the sunlight anymore 
Nemona
Nita
Leon
i've only gotten noland
A8 already and the shop still has utterly shit
no damage upgrade. rough.
and noland too. .-.;
sst red still around though, so perhaps?
Lol
Why Cheren not caked :(
Why is Volo caked but not EX'd
prolly not enough 5pus. .-.; or just new
Volo is mostly for rally requirement. I do have powerup but i suppose i forgot 
i should exr him but, honestly, my main weakpoint these days are sprint/tech
2 fieldable with strike/sprint and tech/sprint is also in dire hits.

Volo don't deserve it anyways! 
What do I do if I have literally one field unit and the game keeps giving me field 🙂

I don't want to see the seed that starts with Field-Strike ever again. Like hell, 3 Sprintfield 
How about the seed that ends with Sprint-Field?
Use a Support + Sprint EXR unit and hope the other two can counter the stage.
I got Tech + Field recently so my Support options kinda suck
Uhhh so which gimmick should i need for gio. Never play his ub b4
field effects and stat debuffs
so wtz + damage field and some kind of heavy stat drops/stat increase prevention
since it's strike + tech, akari and sc zinnia come to mind
uh iirc, the annoying thing about giovanni is that -1 ACC AoE on entry iirc.
Low spending is still possible if you get old a10 stages (Palmer)
New Personal Best
Congrats! Mine is 12,070. Someday it will improve
11200 for me
them sprint focused ones are a pain in the butt
strike/sprint and sprint/tech
Getting a lucky stage and a good A10 these days is going to be hard
did you see a crit pu along the way
No lol
Someone had a 13k score a little before the update iirc
13,700 would be the perfect run
My power ups were: Rival x 1, Champion x 1, SpAtk PU
Does Battle Rally gives us enough rally points to get at least 20 cake coins per month if assuming we just do a weekly run and get 5k+ rally medals or whatever they’re called
Sprint Field Argenta
as long as you get above the monthly requirements you can get 20 cake vounchers every month
check the pins for the requirements
NC Rosa / SS Nemona / SST Red
oh right, ss nemo has sunny day.
SS Nemo was made for this run
Hits all of my upgrades and sunny day
I just had to roll for NC Rosa Relic Song giving +SpA
Quite pleased with the fact I've arrived at a point where sprint field is no longer a massive roadblock like it was back then
Aside from fulfilling max role bonus
can someone explain to me why theres so many god damn field boosts???
Do you mean field EX Role or Field role bonus areas?
sst red at the end seems nice.
Lots of solid tech field pairs like SST Red and SS Diantha
Tech in general is the best role to have at the end imo

Tech is definitely great throughout but there are few tech tanks for A10 
That's when you bring out caked NC Calem
Ideally the paired role should be the one to bear the burden of tanking, hence why it's important to have a couple of good support strike and support sprint tanks
Techs should ideally cover the damage and gimmick side of the team
Oof
what to do for argenta when they are not affected by negative status change defense and special defense is tripled but I can’t give them negative status change
negative status changes are status interferences (flinch, trap, confused), restrain and rebuffs
rebuffs are the best way to deal with the damage reduction passive
I think no evasion counts too
but she cleanses herself from them once at 50% benchmark so be mindful
i haven't tested it but if works, it works. the issue is that most of no evasion pairs doesn't contribute to the team much
I literally can’t she has unflappable none of them work
and I have no grass rebuff as far as I know
it doesn't need to be Grass rebuff
any rebuff works
it's better not use interference because she heals from it every turn
I’ll try another one then thanks
no evasion also works but needs reapplying like every third action or so bc it's got a really short duration
The only one you can inflict on her from the trio of interference is like Confusion iirc
I know she has Unflappable, could it be she has Escape Artist too?
Would need to check
But in my most recent run, I used NC Rosa and just clicked Teeter Dance before my DPS to make sure the move hits without trouble
Then rinse and repeat
So even apple cup is barely enough for VH Nemona without handling her gimmicks 
Her gimmick is get rid of her terrain and a negative status condition on her?
yes
Also, Nemona debuffs both defensive stats every time she lands a hit
She also cures all negative status chabfe every time she sync. Once you hit 70% HP on her, she immediately reapplies ET
What even is the team she wants to fight her lol
Sslana is the unit for that fight
i am once again asking myself if br is worth it
ughhhh
i messed up and spent my vouchers on a tech cake instead of a strike one so i definitely Need to this week not just for the gems but
Wtf
stage 6 for me requires field and sprint, ive already used my singular field character and i only have 2 sprints left, is this a good time to use one of my multi characters?
theres one more stage that requires sprint and field for me so
All areas done on VH.
Barely got 10k on a sprinting run. A5 took me many tries by activating MPR on all three SS Nemona, NC Silver and SS Lear to carry them for A6. Even thought Silver felled before reaching that. And got a clutch Ultra Jelly for Thorton UB to win, after a terrible shop overall
Items used:
- 1 Fighting Upgrade (start)
- 1 Opp. Paralyzed PU (50, from A9)
- 1 Ultra Jelly (100, for A10)
Battles per Area:
1: NC Serena Grass-W PSS
2: Siebold Grass-W CS
3: Sightseer Male BC (from Rosa SC event)
4: Acerola BC (from Kalos NC event)
5: Flint Psychic-W CS
6: Gloria BC (from Greta event)
7: Karen Rock-W CS
8: Janine BC (from Iono event)
9: Black Belt BC (from SS Wally event)
10: Thorton UB
score wise it's probably better to use multi role in a stage where they are x1.7
assuming you can do follow-up stages at the same difficulty
(or higher) if you aren't on VH
ive been doing alright with vh so far
so maybe
but it looks like ill have to give up on the 2x bonus for this round
I guess if you have plenty of other roles to use, it might be worth it.
if you do some quick math you can just check what the sums are
nah i have less than 200 sync pairs
How many points should I have at the end
it really depends
i'd recommend aiming for 6,000 a run at least, since that lets you guarantee you'll get every cake coin voucher each month
it's not easy when you're new, but the weekly req. are pinned for the rewards
6,000 (4 week month) / 4,800 (5 week month) for just Roll Cake Coin Vouchers
8,500 (4 week month) / 6,800 (5 week month) for both Cake & Power-Ups
9,750 (4 week month) / 7,800 (5 week month) for all Cake+PU+Corbs
Dang
Not so bad for a field seed and doing only Hard Area 10 which was Anabel, VH was also Anabel.
Starting bonus was bug in team, bought crit power twice.
Got a lucky area 9 
gg
ngl, it was hard to win without a real stat-reduction team. But I had to for the points and to make use of the Sinnoh, Champion, and stat down and crit power up boosts lol
I'm here begging for Regigigas once more
. These new battles are hard and it seems to only be those showing up. Though this one might be the more forgiving one in the new rotation
So many bcs ;-;
so my start bonus was champion, shop has ice and ground. i can pack arc cyn + rika and then use slot 3 for hitting multiplier ig??
since rika will at least set ground zone so i can conserve uses of sandstorm
alternately, bring arc cyn and save rika for 8/9/10
ok idea 2:
1-10: arc cyn
1, 2, 3: anabel (2x on 3)
4: sygna red or ssr cyn (2x)
5, 6: 5a lillie (2x on 6)
7: redlax or ssa cyn (2x)
8, 9, 10: rika (2x on 9)
it appears I have once again rolled the 3rd anni ebe on a late area, does the center mon (kris's feraligatr) have antifreeze? my bonus roles are strike/tech and I have kanto bonus, so my thought is freeze lock her with nc red
I don't think she is immune to stun, cuz i cheesed her with sleep before
Even with freeze immunity Red should eat her alive as long as you have WTZ
yeah I have ss acerola for that slot (only a 1.5x bonus, I know but it's strike/tech a8 what do I do)
It’d be more points to swap out units anyhow
Perhaps consider a flinch user since your tank probably won’t last?
I have SC Irida + NC Red and run a similar strategy
oh my tank is fine it's the damage dealers I'm worried about
I didn’t realize SS Acerola can tank
with triple stats she can do anything
Anni Lillie is my third. Relying on Healthy Benefits isn’t the greatest strategy
die, Kris
Yeah. And it will get worse on further updates 
is there a doc with the new battles that was added to BR? I'm not positive who this fight was intended for
Ok what the hell is this battle villa looking blue red and cheren battle
Says use special moves and special defense down but ss Gladion moves just get absorbed
which fights?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yrpszZUbC9hGrlIoqcQon7hJqWVKLR-uEsSraZF-Rro/edit?gid=452026996#gid=452026996 i've got this.
I think this was the SS Lear one but idk wht SS Gladion won't work
Can't even drop it past 80% on two fleur cannons and a sync

I hate rally. Can't use my boosts cuz of crap battles like this
Gonna have to waste arc Lance for this
it was steel-weak blue & rhydon but i managed to power thru it barely
ok yeah it was this one exactly lol
Nope Lance gets absolutely wiped
Lance and Gladion both get wiped on sync and barely deal damage
oh that should be a bc then. did it have freeze 100%?
Strike sprint is disgusting for this especially when I have 3 boosted pairs that aren't boosted by types
here ya go.
Battle absorbs all damage. This is useless
-6 spdef Gladion fleur cannon and sync. Absolutely zero damage
Two masterfairs and an arc suit can't crack this trash
you know its bad when the best stage is palmer .-.;
ARRRRRGGGGH NOT THE DAMN NEMONA BATTLE
I slightly prefer Palmer over Anabel lmao
what's your current role bonus / upgrades ?
if youj've got tech or field, perhaps?
Strike tech
upgrades?
Probably gonna step down. I have 3-2x boosts but they're not stat boosted
well goodluck o/
Rally sucks so much these new battles are killer
For nemona ub, is ss lana gonna want at least a candy to give potential refresh on psychic terrain
I feel like it's pretty tough without it
It's made for SS Lana
Have you tried it already?
But don't candy a unit for a specific battle unless you plan to use them in the future
Yea but at 1/5 she runs out of psychic terrain
Yea a few times
And I'm decently boosted
Have you all tried it?
Do you have a negative status change?
Yup ss blue
you need confuse or something
Because IIRC, it's also made for NC Rosa too
Zapdos
Also do remember that Nemona cures all negative status change every time she syncs
Yea
isn't it 60%
That's not true
its 60% and sync
She cures negative status on sync
The 70% HP thing is just reapplying ET
Not 60%
This
But the sides do electric terrain when she's dead
Nemona that is
Yes, the left side, infintely too
whose your third sync pair?
Nc serena at the moment
Just like the left side on Nita infinitely reapplying Sandstorm
For kalos ×3
anything in shop like mpizza?
Nothing good in shop
I can try to kill left side quick, but last time I barely killed nemona before 2nd sync
Can you show me and Caster your available Support Strike options
Oh I wasn't even going for bonuses, other than the kalos thing
That hurts your income real bad
At that point just lower to Hard
If the current role bonuses don't match at least 3 roles of the members
Isn't ss lana gonna be used for this ub next month anyway
And a candy there won't be wasted
Candying to beat an UB is not a good use of gems either, unless you make sure that you will use her frequently across multiple content
And if your SS Lana is only 1/5, 2/5 is not even worth it
I got Masked Royal as the final, and he was by far the hardest final boss I’ve faced so far imo lol
I had to use like 200 extra points than what I was hoping for
I was kind of hyped to get my first 11k points after the buys, and without a lucky stage, but he kind of ruined that lol. Still got 11k exactly before buying 350 points worth of stuff
I don’t think I could have won without Klara and a Haze user either
Area10: Strike&Support
Normal: Nita
Hard: Palmer
Very Hard: Nita
We have entered a bizarre timeline where Palmer is a relief to see, and possibly the easiest one on the list (I kind of suspect Normal Nita is still a greater threat than Hard Palmer)
I failed multiple times against Nita, so I went with Palmer in the end. Still got over a 10k total
dont do normal o-o;
Am I daydreaming? 
Sprint Field A10 could be a pain!
But got Unova again!
And I like this seed for Arc Suit perspective
hrm interesting.

Electric and a 4-way fork on bonus route 
I might honestly just slot in SST Red
I got a full bonus Lucky Stage to compensate
cool
My bonus is Hoenn, but the one Support/Sprint Hoenn I got is not caked 
Technically I could buy it off, and he was planned for the cake anyway, but for now I'll wait
Champion upgrade but sprintfield A1 
depends on what you're fighting i suppose
Yeah that's why I deleted it
On the one hand Elite Four upgrade is disgusting
But I also got Crit upgrade immediately so that’s probably alright lol
crit lets go!
man. this is such a nice combo
unfortitious + unfortitious power
150 cost but every sync pair you have can drop stats 😄
rival huh.
should i grab it though?
i think i can only do strike/support + strike/field though ;<
ground, still nothing except for support/field.
Alright this one is my path. Funnily enough I can slot in both ArCynthia and Arc Steven for R10 lol
Double sprintfield sucks tho
Apple cup week again

there we go!
DAMNIT ALL
Do you have the counters for her?
Bow down peasant
For a second I thought I am cooked!
But it appears to be a CS!
yes. this is not a question of my units: this is a question of my patience
which i dont have
I have LG streaking to do
i just want my damn gems
Done
adios nemona you immortal shithead
Unrelated but what device is this
That background goes on for so long
F!
Caked Lenora 
Who's BC is this?
SS Wally???
I think it is! 
I have to mega evolve someone to activate his BMove! 
i think its ss wally.
you have to change zone and drop their offensive stats.
anyways. wheee.
it was quite a fortune mmhmm
there we go. had to EX Lodge Gladion
and i'm set for the month
I did it with him!
I was forced to buy another theme boost!
But it was done somehow
No lucky area?! 
The streak is broken!
checking
4 lucky area streak broken
lets goooooooo!
Week 034 to 037 😄
honestly, if i get to back-to-back lucky areas, 5 times, i would've bought a lottery ticket lulz
Even four times is a lottery!
You are the luckiest person in BR
not really, there have been bad weeks but
People barely get any Lucky Areas
Field sprint 
here are my current lucky stage weeks
No Greta!
Wow!
Rei btw who's BC is this??
A steel type who has to change weather? That wierd!
Rei is such as powerhouse in BR. And he can fit with any comp
I always make sure to reserve him in the later stages (stage 10 even if he has the double role bonus)
Yeah Rei is awesome
tech/field gaming :D~



the plan worked out
