Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[rocky oasis]

for anyone who doesnt wanna do the solo

[bitter gate]

That I thought I done fucked

[mild bison]

I wonder how does Maylene/Rei duo look on Regi

[rocky oasis]

I did maylene / flincher vs regi

[mild bison]

Isn't Rei like a semi-flincher himself?

[rocky oasis]

idk i dont have him

went for akari

[modest oar]

He is

[rocky oasis]

will say that akari / tech oarasect clears torn tho

[modest oar]

What move level is your Rei?

[mild bison]

3/5

[modest oar]

Just solo

[sour isle]

Redlax 1/5?

[mild bison]

What's the build and LS?

[mild bison]

Does the skill gear matter too?

[modest oar]

Yes

It helps him

Stoic 2 ls

I used a different strat but my Rei is 2/5 EX R rather than 3/5

[mild bison]

Oh geez, Stoic

[pearl beacon]

Take an eggmon and you're good
I used supp beedrill, mine is 2/5 non R

Dps bar2, nuke bar3

[mild bison]

I don't have much eggmons since I don't really use them at all

[modest oar]

You just want a meatshield

[karmic willow]

3/5.

[mild bison]

Do I copy your grid?

[modest oar]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/29000/72401?s=2&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13016403&g=AAECAwQFCQ8VHh8hIiMkJSYpKi0uLzA&x=true

Lucky Skill was Super Powered 3

[mild bison]

Well, mine is CS2

[modest oar]

CS2 might work since yours is 3/5

But you need EXR to copy what I did

[mild bison]

I have

[pearl beacon]

Taking Super desperate is a cheap trick for Bar3 in case you're using a shield eggmon
Get critted, super desperate activate, you sync

[modest oar]

Then watch the 2/5 video and follow it

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/29000/72401?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13016403&g=AAECAwQFDB4hJCUmKCkqLTAz&x=true

This might work for 3/5

[feral plank]

who could i pair with 2/5 proton for bulu?

not soloing

[modest oar]

I'm asking the same question

[feral plank]

solo is pain

[modest oar]

Yeah, not doing it

[feral plank]

same, i got 2/5 from the mix banner and the free ticket but not candying him honestly

[heavy sinew]

got the solo

[feral plank]

which one?

[heavy sinew]

glojoj

[feral plank]

nice

[heavy sinew]

should i go for the colress olo

[tender horizon]

Looks much better now

[mild bison]

Where to put ASSerola on?

[muted cedar]

I used her to solo Bulu

Also, the BP Barry solo on Tornadus is pain

[mild bison]

Chase can solo Tornadus right?

Because of guaranteed para each time he gets hit?

[feral plank]

yea

1/5 no ex i thin

[mild bison]

Bulu solo Bulu or someone else?

[feral plank]

if its 5/5 i think it can steel

[mild bison]

I remember doing a solo once

3/5 only

[bitter gate]

Sonia is soo bad

I had to put MGR lucky skill on her

just so her gauge doesn't flounder

[pliant glen]

That's the main reason she doesn't solo Bulu

Besides her bulk

[bitter gate]

you need stupid twofer procs

or something

I also still have no idea

how to do the Anni Lillie duo

the gauge is horrid and Lillie doesn't hit hard enough

lol

[heavy sinew]

gakon disapproves

jk sc sonia is meh

welp time to start duos

34 solos

the same as last LG

[bitter gate]

i guess I'll do uhh

the mcleo/registeel duo now

because I think that's as optimized as you can get

[heavy sinew]

you read my mind

i was gonna do that too

lol

[kind imp]

Which?

[bitter gate]

there's the misty variant

[kind imp]

The misty one nao used ft on Lillie

[bitter gate]

and there's quaggles hapu variant

I do run FT on Lillie

but she doesn't hit hard enough

to deny rain

[tender horizon]

Summer Lyra utility - drop Special Defense twice using Mind Games 2 and then die because shes shittier than Brycer and Clay

[heavy sinew]

that was easy

[bitter gate]

looks like skill isue

115 now

[heavy sinew]

35

[feral plank]

53

[shy notch]

The new leaderboard interface is annoying. So much scrolling

[mild bison]

Damn, Bulurola solo on Bulu is tougher than I expected

Now, what to do on Regi?

[inner turret]

that's not every day that we see bulu dying of recoil

[muted cedar]

Any good duo partners for BP Barry (5 stars, no EX) vs. Tornadus? I am NOT doing this solo 😭

[mild bison]

Off-topic, but is your PR 158?

[stuck mantle]

Nice hehe

Did this shit

Jesus

Avoid bar 3 wood hammers

[dawn plume]

bad memories 😵‍💫

[stuck mantle]

Yes one off worst solos

[mild bison]

Time to solo Torn with Chase

What's the strat BTW?

[vital ibex]

exist

each time torn hits you he paras himself and you heal

just use all tms at the start to get +6 eva

[modest oar]

If 2/5 just spam moves and win

[mild bison]

What if 3/5?

[modest oar]

No difference

[vital ibex]

i would assume the same

yea

[mild bison]

Just use all X Sp. Atk. All and his TM and just hit Torn?

[vital ibex]

and kanto circle

[modest oar]

Yes. Have natural remedy and sync regen

[mild bison]

Natural? I already have Antitoxin on him from Lucy's UB

[modest oar]

You don't need antitoxin. Vigilance would mean nat crits can't screw you over

You likely dodge the toxic if he's +6 evasion and have natural remedy for a potential burn

Mind Games 2 also works

[hallow gull]

Just spam thunder shock and Sync

[pseudo star]

W leaf

[mild bison]

Crit and flinch didn't matter LMFAO

When a mere rat beats a force of nature

[inner turret]

why am i doing the ball guy solo again

[mild bison]

Is Lenora/Riley duo on Regi a bad idea?

[inner turret]

it's too much

[mild bison]

Damn

[stuck mantle]

Overk kill

[mild bison]

Oh well

[stuck mantle]

Riley need some egg from start take hit and dont get para

[mild bison]

Adaman on Bulu or Regi?

OG BTW

[feral plank]

3/5 regi 1/5 bulu

[dawn plume]

dude i love astonish not flinching 3 times in a row then getting flinched by iron head

its my favorite

[shy gale]

How does c leaf and a sun setter work on torn?

Is it still potion mpr simulator

[feral plank]

yes

every bruteforce torn is a healing simulator

[shy gale]

[dawn plume]

not every bruteforce torn

c serena my beloved

[inner turret]

fuck that i am not doing the ball guy solo

i can't even get past bar 1 first half

[feral plank]

D:

[dawn plume]

my strategy of get a clear or two during each of my breaks at work is not very effective when each clear i am attempting takes 30+ mins of attempts

doing acerola naomi again, i’ve done it before but mannnnn is it stupid

[feral plank]

after the rally i'm going for ss misty solo on bulu

[mild bison]

What's a Cerena grid on Regi with +6 energy?

[inner turret]

since i've given ball guy a partner he never paralyses anymore bruh

[young forge]

Is there a list of mixed attackers?

[inner turret]

I don't think so

[young forge]

I’m trying to find a mixed attacking partner for 1/5 Iono EX against Tornadus

[inner turret]

why would you want something mixed with her

[young forge]

I saw the Iono + C Blue duo but I’d rather save C Blue for someone who needs the crit

[chrome halo]

[young forge]

Mixed damage helps get through bar 1 and 2 since she can’t paralyze super often

[inner turret]

flint

[stuck mantle]

Who is tank vs torn tl elesa and norman?

In this duo

[young forge]

I would assume TL Elesa since she has recuperation and leech life

[tender horizon]

Marlon eating hyper beam

[stuck mantle]

Yep she tank since she have natural remedy in grid for toxic

[tender horizon]

Norman cant tank tht much

[dawn plume]

that heat wave gonna hurt tho

[stuck mantle]

Lol qag did number 1 lg did it too

So some how she live😂

I will check it out

[quaint tartan]

TL elesa

[stuck mantle]

Thanks

[quaint tartan]

Just grid Norman for body slam mgr and you are fine

[stuck mantle]

You did this duo?

[quaint tartan]

First try

Yup it’s a walk in the park

[stuck mantle]

Lol easy

[modest oar]

Who to use with 1/5 Leon?

[inner turret]

0.7%

[mild bison]

Goddamnit, why is my game crashing

[dawn plume]

and you know once you did get the paralyze he was gonna self cleanse

[inner turret]

I didn't even get it once is the thing

[stuck mantle]

Wat leon?

[modest oar]

Charizard

[inner turret]

if they don't specify it's og

[stuck mantle]

A fuecco

Most use

Or scorbunny

Or some whit sun egg mon can be too

[stuck mantle]

Did it too my tl elesa got burn and die 15% hp torn he flinch norman and he kill edge torn and die after from recoil norman lol😂

Was not walk in park but did it😂

[inner turret]

i'm actually going mad of ball guy never paralysing

[bitter gate]

Hmm.

I think this is cheaper

But I digress

[stuck mantle]

Lol nice duo

[bitter gate]

With or without FT

[stuck mantle]

I did whit fast track on both

Since gauge suks

[bitter gate]

Yeah ft is needed

[stuck mantle]

Did some one nanu solo vs reggi did?

[bitter gate]

Btw

Did you see this

[stuck mantle]

Wat?

[bitter gate]

[stuck mantle]

O nice i dont now if have vileplum

It was from event egg or regularv

?

Its tech or sup?

[inner turret]

that's it i'm using an actual dps with ball guy

[mild bison]

Holy fuck, the amount of resetting I did on Regi with Cerena is insane

[feral plank]

where should i use 1/% alt leon and with who?

[worthy horizon]

did this with 5/20 lodge blue, sun does run out quite a bit before the end but it's very doable

i can show recording if necessary

[inner turret]

even with an actual dps ball guy sucks

i hate it here

i'm saving that for LATER

[quaint tartan]

Ft on Elesa vigi on Norman for me

But only bc I already had those ls

I’m having a terrible luck with ls this lg so I’m going with team comps that do not require ls changes

Otherwise I’m having a loss on cookie and I need to farm them for hse

[young forge]

Used Lusamine EX + 1/5 EX Iono. Vigilance / Flying Guard

[mild bison]

Holy fuck, my Ash solo should've taken less time than that

Is SS Gladion's only feasible solo on Bulu?

[quaint tartan]

Yes but he’s easy duo anywhere else

[modest oar]

Interesting

[mild bison]

Also, can Mayziken solo Regi?

[silent shell]

Tech Arcanine

[mild bison]

NVM, Mayziken solo on Regi requires 5/5

[modest oar]

What Arcanine do here?

[stuck mantle]

Flinch?

[silent shell]

Flinch

[modest oar]

I see. Guess I'll do that then

[silent shell]

Mine is 3/5 EX R but still duo with Tech Arcanine

[bitter gate]

Is that you taro

Your ratio is crazy lol

[silent shell]

Nope

I’m not on LB yet

My ratio sucks

[worthy horizon]

note that i did have +2E on maxie from testing stuff in the past and i think that did significantly boost solar beam power

[karmic willow]

eyyy i did this

one time for the one time

[rain iris]

are the colors on the solo doc a difficulty indicator? doesn't quite look like it lines up with investment

[worthy horizon]

easy 1 mpr, dc2 tech seaking

0 brave birds

ty rednhoho for grid/strat

140 EX, grass guard

[kind imp]

These?

Yes they are investiment indicators

[karmic willow]

Wooo

[karmic willow]

Damn bro

Yes

Finally grinded enough for this shit

Awwwwww yeahhhhhhhh

[inner turret]

Where would you even use interf immune ?

[karmic willow]

Tornadus

Flinch

Confuse

Need me to remind you again?

Like it's better than unflappable by a long shot so

Why not

Flameproof is old

Get with the times

[kind imp]

And antoxin for coba

[karmic willow]

Yeah

And lithe for body slam

At some points

ALL of my flinchers will have status inmune

Hell no to moltress, entei, and some other things

Maybe raikou

The future is now

[worthy horizon]

ty got it

[karmic willow]

Hell

Cs2 is arguably

The worst skill

As you go more in

[karmic willow]

WTF

[worthy horizon]

citrine did it at 4* both

[karmic willow]

Bro

Meanwhile i am still here doing

Jasmine

Stall bar 1 for debuffs

Cannot get mg2

Cringed

[heavy sinew]

woah

[rocky oasis]

lol my rosa was ex

I ex her for entei

[worthy horizon]

o lol

misread the picture

[rocky oasis]

the difference is ex rosa can nuke past 50% on bar 2

[worthy horizon]

makes a lot more sense now

yea i needed a lot of really good flinches bars 2 and 3 and hitting a quadqueue on the last giga impact

[mild bison]

Do you still need MG2 on SS Diantha when soloing Regi even at 5/5?

[tight rivet]

it makes it easier probably not required atp

[mild bison]

So I can just run Vigi then

[worthy horizon]

been failing miserably at flinch duos like nessa/tech gyara and ss wally/wulfric so it's really nice i was able to get that one

[kind imp]

Nessa gyara and wally tech Farfetch were pain

[raven crane]

Yeah I get why it's there, it's simple to do.

Just in practice.... Pain.

[dawn plume]

i needa stop torturing myself on registeel lol

[rocky oasis]

seriously fuck that body slam

Regi has a secret HE

[mild bison]

Luck is Regi's HE

[karmic willow]

[sturdy steeple]

ehe yeah it can be

[dawn plume]

still no lenora lol

[rocky oasis]

im missing ryuki

and my lenora is 2/5

the gacha is weird sometimes

[kind imp]

3/5 olympia and drasna, 1/5 lenora, melony and looker, no ryuki

and it took me some years to get my first hilda

[karmic willow]

@sturdy steeple hala the god tank

"rock tomb? Thanks for making me even stronger"

[sturdy steeple]

you got 3/5 lenora why not tank with her lol

[rocky oasis]

I think I still have 1/5 olympia

[karmic willow]

Nah she's too squishy

Besides

We gotta

E N D U R E

[worthy horizon]

https://youtu.be/c8VRw6CHHNs

[karmic willow]

U N Y I E L D I N G

R A G E

I kinda like it tho

Like

0 waste

No dc2 required

Gauge problem is nonexistent

Hala maxes out own offense for lenora

[karmic willow]

You know i really wanted to do flint

And then I realize her def is absolute shit

So lenora not tanking

[sturdy steeple]

lenora runs stoic and syncs for sync regen

[karmic willow]

I know i am wrong

But

[sturdy steeple]

but its a win so yay

[karmic willow]

Gyatt daem

We take those

[rocky oasis]

lol I have the same clear recorded but i aint uploading yet

[karmic willow]

Also

Doing lana solo

Bulu

So it's gonna be hard to find a team for hala elsewhere lol

He's quite... Commital

[rocky oasis]

cant get the rng to cooperate for ss grimsley solo

oh well

[heavy sinew]

grim solo?

Wtf

[rocky oasis]

its a evasion solo

[worthy horizon]

yea i recorded everything and i plan to have it all uploaded and submitted to repository after gauntlet but most stuff i haven't uploaded yet

[rocky oasis]

im only recording my interesting vlears

[worthy horizon]

yea most of my clears are stuff that's been done

[karmic willow]

Koga solo

How bad is it again?

I forgot

Like damn both koga and bp falkner are absolute pain

[feral plank]

who could help 1/5 irida on bulu?

sc irida

[karmic willow]

Any pot support

[rocky oasis]

ex koga isnt as bad

i ex him just for LG

only took me lik 10 mins

[karmic willow]

Man fuck this shit

No way in hell

Yhr first body slam is the one that paralyzes

Stupid

[feral plank]

D:

[sullen gyro]

Yes it happens a lot, 30% is a lie😆

[worthy horizon]

it's a lot of 30%s together

[sullen gyro]

And the Iron Head flinch

Also quite common

[feral plank]

i got nat crit by wood hammer

[karmic willow]

Man

Imagine like

Uhhhh

Registeel just

Mind brace 2

Your free trial of nuking has expired

Not gonna do duos

Anymore

For sleeping chain

[heavy sinew]

fell stinger moment

[stray sandal]

What can I add for brendan run to make it easier?

Potion maybe? Or stats

[kind imp]

defense eggmon

[worthy horizon]

potion and/or defense sounds right

[kind imp]

but i still need to watch how to do it bc i tried and failed non ex+*sup cloyster

[karmic willow]

One clean nuke

Literal bar 3 one shot

[stray sandal]

I've only got 3 def eggs left and they all feel too valuable lol

[karmic willow]

Crit might

Dc2

Type skills

Sync stack buffs

Just

B L A S T

One clean nuke

[worthy horizon]

i'd encourage you to keep at the solo then tbh

[tender horizon]

I did Ethan

[tender horizon]

Oh damn i try tht next time i guess

[tender horizon]

This one crazy

[rocky oasis]

anyone know the cheapest duo for darach

i aint lucky enough to get 4+ mpr one that tm

[kind imp]

this seems cheap

[rocky oasis]

i might toss in pryce

[stray sandal]

I haven't watch Brendan solo but i saw Naomi use grass guard so I assume it's bullet seed spam

[rocky oasis]

bar 3 is leaf storm > sync > leaf storm or bullet seed depending on how much hp is left

[modest oar]

It is

You want to conserve your flinches

[rocky oasis]

leaf storm is for finishing off bars + bar 3

you dont really need a flinch left if you quadqueue the half bar

and leaf storm doesnt miss

[karmic willow]

I am doing this you cannot stop me

She's so ass everywhere else

[rocky oasis]

1/5 ss lana desperately wants def crush on smth

[karmic willow]

Yeah

Or just

Get lucky no def down

[rocky oasis]

otherwise her dps is ass

[karmic willow]

We gooning

We trolling

We coping

We seething

[rocky oasis]

idk what im gonna do with her

[karmic willow]

Bulu

[rocky oasis]

bc i have her 2/5 now

[karmic willow]

Duh

Wipe the terrain

Help your tank live the stupid bonk

[rocky oasis]

bulu now feels like a waste

[karmic willow]

Ehhh

You do you

[rocky oasis]

but shes not good enough to speed kill torn and dies to regi syncs

[stray sandal]

What do you mean conserve lol

[modest oar]

Flinch as late possible

[quaint tartan]

4/5 Alt Leon + tech ninetales on torn is a common go to or am I going to smash my phone to the wall?

[modest oar]

You only got 4 flinches on Bulu

[heavy sinew]

https://tenor.com/view/cope-seethe-mald-cope-seethe-mald-we-cope-seethe-mald-gif-24459955

[rocky oasis]

tbh it doesnt really matter

i prefer flinching on bar 1 bc it lets me conserve hp to take the crit seed bomb

i didnt need any flinch for bar 3

[sturdy steeple]

pretty common, stuff can be cheaper than tech ninetales but ninetales makes it simple

[shy notch]

Tech Arcanine is indefensibly trash even by eggmon standards

10% flinch ain’t it

[rocky oasis]

tech arcanine is a gauge battery

thats it

[worthy horizon]

only took a few attempts after upgrading to lv 150 (5/20)

[feral plank]

bro it took me around 40 cookies to get mind games 2 in ss steven then i roll 2 1 for tech sprigatito and the other for sc irida and get them first try..

with who could i use alt leon 1/5?

[stray sandal]

The regi rng is such a turn off right now

[blazing linden]

Piercing Blows

Grants all of the following effects when the user is attacking: Ignores the target's passive skills that would reduce the damage of attacks. Ignores the target's passive skills that would protect the target against a critical hit. Ignores the target's Enduring effect.

Sync Pairs with Passive:

N (Anniversary 2021) & Reshiram
Gloria (Alt. 2) & Cinderace
N & Zekrom
Sygna Suit Piers & Toxtricity
Victor & Rillaboom
Sygna Suit N & Kyurem
Petrel & Weezing
Leon (Alt.) & Dragapult

[quaint tartan]

I know it should be easy but my bulu had hidden piercing gaze tonight

[feral plank]

any pair for lunala for nadus?

[stray sandal]

Do I save 3rd sync for brendan for 3rd bar or do I just use it to finish bar 2 fast

[karmic willow]

Hapu

Jk do misty and give her flying guard

[rocky oasis]

nice. i used a starmie instead oc jolteon

[worthy horizon]

that should be better for success rate yea

[rocky oasis]

still took me 2 hours

[worthy horizon]

ah

[rocky oasis]

making steady progress

[worthy horizon]

https://youtu.be/SMdtpes0geM

[rocky oasis]

made darch / pryce work

[worthy horizon]

test run only used 1 defog so i didn't even bother to reset for mpr this time

[rocky oasis]

mostly bc I have no fucking idea where else to use pryce

Putting dc on him helps a lot

[worthy horizon]

same tho

[rocky oasis]

weirdly enough didnt use defog mpr

only needed 1 tm mpr

[quaint tartan]

@hallow gull this duo is really fun and Dahila hits surprisingly hard

[median swan]

do you think he needs the ex

[tender horizon]

Glad thats over with

Quadqueue before Giga Impact successful on my 1st try

[rocky oasis]

probably needs more tm mpr w/o ex

[tender horizon]

My rng was down to whether my 2nd sync crit or not (failed to crit 3 times )

[worthy horizon]

it is super easy with what i have, not sure how it plays out at non-ex

[median swan]

will give it a try non-ex, i'm so low on tickets

[dull zealot]

At 44 winstreak. Some of these duos are hard to pull off.

[stray sandal]

Hmm this clement solo is wtf

[stray sandal]

Can you use like tech blastoise instead lol

[rotund rain]

What is it with me getting Rafa'd everytime I do this solo

[stray sandal]

Man he does like 25% per hurricane

OK I'm just being whiney about this. But at the same time... like wtf I can even get past 50%

[celest wagon]

This took way longer than it should've to adjust and finish... (She was dealing too much dmg in the previous bars..

[tender horizon]

This feels good

[celest wagon]

Does it make sense to bring DC on registeel if you're running a sp.attacker? ( since the info mentions lowering its defences increases the dmg output?.. 🧐

[jade ore]

It gets damage reduction when either is raised, so having defense crush isn't a bad idea

[median swan]

got it, i did need more than one tm mpr like citrine said, thaaanks

[stuck mantle]

Ready skipp for barry scout?😘

[tender horizon]

Only if your special atacker is super strong and can brute force by abusing the Defense drop gimmicks, then u can ignore the defense

[stray sandal]

Like feels good as in it was insanely hard and you got it? Or feels good because it was easy.

Because I’m looking for more runs of the latter 😂

[worthy horizon]

nice nice

always glad to help

[quaint tartan]

How is it gonna survive

[loud shell]

Has palentine's mallow solod registeel yet?

[quaint tartan]

This duo on bulu kinda safe, just roll a couple of speed buffs at the beginning

[median swan]

very ready lol sneaking in clears now before barry fines me

[stuck mantle]

Im wait for him duo reggi whit event buggsy

Hehe will be nice

[tiny hedge]

Either this will be fun, or asinine.

[inner turret]

just noticed, the repository now has more than 1k clears

and yet it's far from enough

[tiny hedge]

Wow, flinch on oleana is a freaking lifesaver

[tender horizon]

Fun

[tender horizon]

It is easy yet optimized

[tender horizon]

Good idea

[shy notch]

I still haven’t gotten around to EXing Event Bugsy. Even though he was probably the one I wanted the most for before they released all of them at once

[fair fox]

Does Palmer and SS Gladion have a role in any of these battles? Can't seem to use either of them for anything at 1/5. Both seem to be good at early damage but runs out of steam by stage 2.

[loud shell]

Palmer would be an easy way to drop registeel's defense by 6, Gladion would help neuter tornadus and hurricane spam

[fair fox]

I see, thanks, that's good to know, also probably not as a main dps in any fights?

[loud shell]

Gladion can be main dps if you give him a decent support or a eggmon duo

Palmer is demanding for gauge

[fair fox]

oh, not even on duo, im looking at trios XD

[inner turret]

palmer can solo bulu or duo regi with some help at 3/5

ah wait 1/5

[loud shell]

He's talking 1/5

[fair fox]

XD

[inner turret]

palmer 1/5 is kinda cringe ngl

[loud shell]

Agreed, Im not even a fan at 3/5

[inner turret]

3/5 is good

[loud shell]

the sync and max move are great

[inner turret]

1/5 struggles

[loud shell]

the general move is bad

I hate Crush Grip

[quaint tartan]

3/5 is good lg wise

[fair fox]

XD, ic ic

[quaint tartan]

Mine also has ex role so I’m still thinking where to use him

[inner turret]

palmer has -6 def so that's something for regi

[quaint tartan]

(He’s also good in rally bc of tanking stuff)

[inner turret]

duo'd with supp wigg on regi, if you don't value 30% para

[quaint tartan]

I might add another buffer eggmon

[inner turret]

well wigg buffs just what you want

+2 speed +2 spd +4 def

[loud shell]

I threw mine at Regi with a sleep eggmon

[inner turret]

waste of sleep

[quaint tartan]

But is a para eggmon

[loud shell]

I wasn't concerned about getting to the top

I just wanted the cookies

[inner turret]

i'm not crazy enough to throw 30% at torn

[quaint tartan]

Once upon a time I threw a 10% par on tornadus

[inner turret]

when even 75% can mess you up

[quaint tartan]

I still remember the clear, it was the first lg torn was around

[inner turret]

never again?

[loud shell]

What did you use with thundershock?

SS Elesa?

[quaint tartan]

Fcaltin-allister-surge (electrode with no grid available)

[inner turret]

ss elesa has thunder, might as well use it

[loud shell]

Good lord why

Madman

[quaint tartan]

Bc I was throwing random stuff

[inner turret]

1st lg really was random bullshit go

[loud shell]

I just do trios at this point

[inner turret]

well not just 1st, like until 6th 7th

[loud shell]

I don't have the patience for the solos

[quaint tartan]

We also did not plan so much and we were not so skilled

Streaks of 60/70 were considered crazy at that time

[fair fox]

^ it still feels crazy to me when my entire roster can't get past streak 2 XD

[loud shell]

according to my spreadsheet the first lg my score was 31

Those were the days

[fair fox]

were LG not as frequent early on?

[loud shell]

The didn't start until 2022

They

[inner turret]

i think it always has been every 2 months ?

since they started that is

[loud shell]

January of 2022 we got the first gauntlet and its been every two months since

[fair fox]

makes sense, I was like, i am in my 2nd month of playing and I definitely cant do a 31 streak XD

[wicked tusk]

I want to auto Registeel but I don't have SS May, any unit similar to her that I might be able to replace her with?

[loud shell]

Latios, Regirock, Tornadus was the first gauntlet

[inner turret]

may's here for defense debuff

[wicked tusk]

any type

[inner turret]

and nuke

[loud shell]

Does that clear us may or misty as the nuke?

[inner turret]

so anything that fulfills both

[wicked tusk]

let me check

[loud shell]

I assume May

[inner turret]

may probably since misty doesn't have her SpA raised

[loud shell]

Brawly would be the f2p I can think of

[wicked tusk]

SS May Nuke

[loud shell]

Brawly Hop and a speed buffer will give you something similar

[inner turret]

yup brawly could work

can keep ss misty

[loud shell]

Or tech hitmontop

[inner turret]

misty's purpose here is to clear SpD buffs i think lol

at least the ones on bar 2

[loud shell]

Don't need to if you nuke bar 2

[inner turret]

that's auto

you don't nuke bar 2

[loud shell]

fair enough

[wicked tusk]

a sync nuker with def drops...

hmm

[loud shell]

you have sonia?

[wicked tusk]

No, she's been used

i mean I guess i could reuse her

[loud shell]

I thought you were autoing

[wicked tusk]

i am

[loud shell]

aren't you just redoing the same stage over and over

[wicked tusk]

she's used on another team

[tiny hedge]

"Sonia has a solo though,"

And?.

[wicked tusk]

How would Hop/Sonia/SS Misty auto Registeel?

[loud shell]

I was saying sonia brawly and ss misty

[wicked tusk]

ohhh

I can't invest in brawly right now, im super low on resources

[loud shell]

You mean sync orbs?

[wicked tusk]

sync orbs, deluxe cookies and power up tickets

[loud shell]

He'd just need the orbs

[wicked tusk]

are you sure..?

[loud shell]

cookies can be obtained in auto grind

[wicked tusk]

i don't even have the orbs rn

[loud shell]

fair enough

[wicked tusk]

does anyone have the sync nuke tiering doc?

[celest wagon]

This one gonna be so much "fun" .......

[wicked tusk]

looks like you did it

assuming she's 3/5

[celest wagon]

Nah she died to 400+ giga impact

Unsure what else I could improve honestly.. maybe vigilance(?)

Even if I skip the quakes at bar 2 and 3 the sure crit kinda screws up

[wicked tusk]

are you running DC2

?

[celest wagon]

I was initially

And she did make it to bar 3 once.. but then tinkered around with unbending and what not (couldn't find a vid of a clear

[wicked tusk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e44EH9eEV1k

You've seen this right?

[celest wagon]

Haven't seen any actually forgot to save this yt channel

Didn't consider delay the sync to bar 3 ngl..

[rocky oasis]

for anyone thinking of tryin the surge solo

don't

use a pidgeot to duo

[inner turret]

i used cheren lol

[rocky oasis]

Pudgeot is for ex surge ofc

i wouldnt do the duo if he isnt ex

[magic nymph]

Guys tornadus keeps killing elessa with hurricanes

I can't evade because I can't proc paralysis from t shock so he uses rain dance

[inner turret]

use thunder

[wicked tusk]

i'm trying Hop/SS Erika/SS Misty to auto Registeel

praying it just works sometime

[magic nymph]

I did but by the time the hurricanes already blew 4/5 of my hp already

If I go next phase brutal swing just kills her

[wicked tusk]

WAIT 3/5 ARCHER

THAT MIGHT WORK

[magic nymph]

How are you debuffing his defense

[wicked tusk]

I'm not lol

[magic nymph]

I heard you can flinch spam registeel

[worthy horizon]

why did i get this first try i got both the mprs i wanted

[wicked tusk]

yeah

[worthy horizon]

(wise entry 2, mind games 2)

[wicked tusk]

Ooo

[worthy horizon]

wanted to make something out of wise entry 2 on jasmine and came up with that

[magic nymph]

Mind games 9 when

[magic nymph]

I mean as a lucky skill

[inner turret]

i missed 3 seed bomb and 2 razor leaf

at +1 evasion

fuck me

[wicked tusk]

o

[wicked tusk]

no swearing

[loud shell]

Swearing encouraged when a solo is being bad

[tender horizon]

One of my most hated solos

[wicked tusk]

shit

oh my hehe

how awful

[wicked tusk]

i thought Nate Vs Tapu Bulu was the easy solo

[inner turret]

lmfao that's very far from easy

[loud shell]

I think in theory it is but evasion is bad in this game and fly quick combo mpr shenanigans

[worthy horizon]

maybe once you're very used to the timing

not me

[wicked tusk]

timing you'll never use again in any stage

[inner turret]

there's no getting used to the timing

you have to learn it again every time lol

[wicked tusk]

back in my day we used to sleep chain entei with Ramos

https://tenor.com/view/old-man-grandpa-gif-15302685

[inner turret]

we still do

[wicked tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/zoom-triggered-shake-fast-walker-gif-16232542

[tender horizon]

Heavily scripted

I wouldnt say its difficult

[wicked tusk]

SS Diantha... why did i not think of that....

it's so obvious

[tender horizon]

Its like reciting tje bible and rewriting it on paper thoigh

Not fun at all

[wicked tusk]

that sounds easy

[tender horizon]

Compared with difficult solos tht are kinda satisfying

[loud shell]

She's weak to steel

[wicked tusk]

I have Hop

https://tenor.com/view/tony-stark-rdj-robert-downey-jr-kidnapped-well-gif-14639224

[loud shell]

She still doesn't like taking a sync move which will be plentiful in auto

[wicked tusk]

im on the last bar already

[tight rivet]

is bea and lenora too expensive of a duo for someone whos a noob to lg

[loud shell]

no its not

[tight rivet]

i sadly dont have tech farfetch’d or id have used that instead

[wicked tusk]

not this one

what stage?

[loud shell]

my lenora got obliterated by registeel

[tight rivet]

registeel

[wicked tusk]

nothing is too expensive for registeel

[inner turret]

skill issue

[tiny hedge]

Any other units to use dark zone in?

[inner turret]

[loud shell]

Lenora folds to the physical attacks

[tight rivet]

yeah she runs stoic

[inner turret]

yeah

[tight rivet]

but its very annoying with 1/5 lenora

[wicked tusk]

5/5 20/20 Kali and Azumarill

[tight rivet]

cuz no tm mpr

for heals

or sync regen

[inner turret]

don't need

[tight rivet]

i mean its possible without

[tiny hedge]

.....didn't know kali had dark zone

[tight rivet]

its just a lot more annoying/rng

[wicked tusk]

yeah

[inner turret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkSl1FZAIZc&t=6173s

[tight rivet]

cuz you need good stoic procs

i had +4 so she survived until bar 3

[tiny hedge]

But real talk, who would be a good user for dark zone.

[wicked tusk]

do any of the units have passives that trigger in dark zone?

[loud shell]

Just watched your recent battle rally video, good lord thats alot of EX role unlocks

[wicked tusk]

if not, any of them work

tech/striker

[inner turret]

16

[loud shell]

Not at their current move level, Nanu does though

[inner turret]

nanu doesn't want his dark zone stuff

he wants crit focus, critastrophe and relentless

[loud shell]

I mean his accerelation tile would help gauge

[inner turret]

he already has a good gauge with speed buffs and charg inflic

[wicked tusk]

he's really good for flinch

like really good

[loud shell]

I know

I'm saying that dark units need min 2/5 for dark zone passives other than selene

Actually selene prevents crits under dark zone

[tight rivet]

he has dark zone stuff?

[loud shell]

Umbral Accel

Not alot but something

[inner turret]

Dunno what other people do with him, I did this

[tight rivet]

huh

nanu actually has a not terrible sync

[inner turret]

his innate sucks

but it's manageable

[tight rivet]

oh is it flinch

[inner turret]

yes

[wicked tusk]

the

[inner turret]

so you have to flinch and only then queue sync

[kind imp]

BP Olivia on regi?

Steel week

[loud shell]

She's still weak to steel haha

[inner turret]

ik

i already used that team last lg lol

didn't really know what to use with nanu

[wicked tusk]

LeafeonNoted

[tiny hedge]

I mean, what units don't need the power to begin with?

[inner turret]

None of them need dark zone

Unless you want to use Grimsley's nuke but lol

[tight rivet]

grimsley 💀

[tight rivet]

i was only looking at multipliers but relentless and critastrophe 5 is pretty decent and dd5 if on type. sucks that he has no ex yet tho

[inner turret]

Relent and crit are good but the innate goes a long way in helping actually dealing damage

Especially with the SpD buffs

[tight rivet]

yeah he does need innate pretty badly since its 200->400

[tiny hedge]

Ok, so save it for Grimsley

[tight rivet]

if only it wasnt flinch

[tiny hedge]

Got it

[inner turret]

Bruh you're really gonna use Grimsley's nuke

[tiny hedge]

Bet

[tight rivet]

me when 0 crit buffs vs registeel

most hes doing is being a flinch bot and a pretty shitty one at that cuz 40% on a 3 bar

oh

wait

im stupid

[sour isle]

1/5 Lyra puff?

[tight rivet]

tm is a glorified dh+

oops

havent used him in so long i forgot what he even does

[inner turret]

last time I did this

[tight rivet]

:hell:

Part 3 of my gauntlet streaks

[young forge]

Is Norman + TL Elesa more efficient than Norman + Classic Giovanni? For Tornadus

[kind imp]

This LG I did grimsley+Brock on bulu

From nao

[tight rivet]

sounds awful

[kind imp]

I thought it was fine

[tight rivet]

im assuming you run unbending

[inner turret]

elesa is bulkier, i'd say giovanni is more awkward to use

[tight rivet]

so he doesnt explode to earthquake

[shy notch]

Omg I hate TL Adaman being stuck with Revenge Boost 2 as a passive. Keeps ruining my quad queues

[inner turret]

on bulu

[tight rivet]

RB2 is crazy

[inner turret]

not regi

[tight rivet]

oh

that makes more sense ig

but couldnt you use him for steel cuz he has flinch at least

or does gauge suck too much

[kind imp]

He can't nuke bc of acuity

[inner turret]

grimsley's gauge is actually pretty good

but yeah

[tight rivet]

infinite flinch hax?

but acuity cringe too

[young forge]

I did Classic Giovanni + Norman last time, that’s why I’m wondering

[inner turret]

yeah i did too

and again this lg

i think it's fine

[shy notch]

10% burn strikes on bar 3 Torn

[heavy sinew]

So real

Get that anger out

torn wants you to be angry

[loud shell]

my registeel solo with pal mallow is whats doing it now

[kind imp]

And hit yourself in confusion in the process

Swagger

[tiny hedge]

listen, this is salt-Channel plus for gauntlet specifically

these solos/teams/duos can be so agonizingly painful.

i should know, you've seen me here

[tight rivet]

mf literally has swagger

[tight rivet]

the tornadus cinematic universe

[winter creek]

TCU

Why does that sounds familiar to me for some reason...

[tight rivet]

mcu lol

im making a joke considering we have like 5 different versions of that gif

[winter creek]

5 versions, you say?

[tight rivet]

i think so anyway

[inner turret]

3

[tight rivet]

close enough

[rocky oasis]

that gif is eyebleed

[tight rivet]

its funny

[wicked tusk]

oh

[sullen stag]

tornadus is horrible as a relatively new player lmao

barely have any reliable paralysis

on my third run of it and only calem is left for good paralysis but hes so squishy

[errant moon]

Is yours 2/5? He has a healing node on his TM at that level

Might help a bit

[sullen stag]

no, just 1/5 😔

[errant moon]

😔

[sullen stag]

oh I also have erika with stun spore too

I got at least 2 more in me 🫡

[errant moon]

Ironically he's the one we're getting this PMEX Day but LG finishes the day before

[sullen stag]

lmao

[inner turret]

erika works well

[winter creek]

If I remember correctly, didn't Calem get a free power-up on Masters Day?

[void aspen]

For cookies what streak do I do

Does it just depend on roster?

[modest oar]

Defeat Tapu Bulu, reset, repeat

[void aspen]

Or whichever one is easiest?

[modest oar]

Tapu Bulu is the easiest

[errant moon]

A free merge

[void aspen]

I feel like there was a Torn run I had an easier time with than any of my Bulu runs lol

[errant moon]

He's rotating around again this PMEX Day

[modest oar]

Depends on your roster it can change, but generally the difficulty is Tornadus > Registeel > Tapu Bulu

[void aspen]

No yeah I can definitely see how Bulu is doable by the largest number of units but I feel like Anni N cuts through Torn like a knife through warm butter lol

[modest oar]

Anni N definitely counters him extremely well

[wicked tusk]

i should have pulled for Jacq fuuuuck

[void aspen]

Yeah I’ll probably just do some manual runs with him, SS Morty, and Ghetsis

[wicked tusk]

I have a new auto run to publish

so exciting!! my first doc publishing

[inner turret]

Send it to arzen

[wicked tusk]

need to record it first

it's Hop/SS Misty/SS Diantha vs Registeel btw

[sour isle]

Hum ss steven any good for these 3?

Registeel perhaps?

[modest oar]

SS Steven solos Registeel and Bulu

Not amazing for Tornadus

[wicked tusk]

^

[worthy horizon]

yea only one he doesn't solo

[sour isle]

Gotcha

[wicked tusk]

literally 13/14 solos lol

[rocky oasis]

idk if this is a waste

clears pretty comfortably

[sour isle]

Sadlife since i have to deal with this guy Sigh

[wicked tusk]

2 eggmons on registeel? underkill imo

you're good

[rocky oasis]

unfortunately one eggmon meat shield aint bulky enough

[magic nymph]

I swear

Self cleanse activates more than paralysis from two thunders back to back

[errant moon]

I might have to steal this, I've been looking for a cheap Bea team

[magic nymph]

Fuck you

[worthy horizon]

yea i used brawly w/ bea, using those two eggmons does count as cheaper

prob

[wicked tusk]

overkill

MimeClueless

[magic nymph]

Tell that to my many tries just to activate paralysis

If i don't activate it early tornadus kills elessa with hurricanes because rain is perma on

[sour isle]

Rough. I used lodge jasmine, 1/5 kyogre and ss kris3 kuku...

[shy notch]

Archie and TL Adaman duo was tough, but it’s satisfying taking advantage of Torn setting up rain

I’m completely broke now. No powerups or vouchers

[errant moon]

I lost my shit with that duo and added a para eggmon

[shy notch]

Totally worth it

[errant moon]

It was, I could not handle Archie's para rates any more

nice work completing it!

[shy notch]

I kept pleading with Archie, now would be the perfect time to paralyze!!

30% has a mind of its own

[errant moon]

30% is an absolutely wild rate, idk if I'm strong enough to try it

Insert Mael's Tornadus SC2 gif

[shy notch]

TL Adaman was taking those rain boosted hurricanes like a champ

Only real issue is Archie just barely survives

[errant moon]

Ye I could definitely see the potential of it

If only Archie had HE1

[shy notch]

Thunder: Paralysis Synergy 1, take it or leave it

[errant moon]

[worthy horizon]

i couldn't find any details about archie/tl adaman when i was testing so i decided to just swap to ss blue

survives a very long time even outside of rain

[errant moon]

Y'all wtf do I do with this

Regi obviously but is he even capable of anything at this move level (he was a Mix Surprise)

[heavy sinew]

Bulu for confusing gaming

[sour isle]

Oh i got him too lmao

He needs a lot of hand holding orz

T bh i think i could put him in a team with nc rosa

[errant moon]

Crying

Nothing like fighting the RNG by bringing a unit that makes it worse by default

[shy notch]

You could probably manage to skip the bar 2 iron defense with him

Miss at the end of bar one, sure hit, sync and then let loose bar two

[tiny hedge]

Mp refresh luck on hellooo!

1/5

[raven crane]

Archie doesn't have Hostile Environment?

That's fucking fun.

[dull zealot]

Hmm... the Lance + Lodge Morty duo vs. Tapu Bulu clear in the spreadsheet is not correctly labeled -- the Lance used in the clear is the NY one.

[shy notch]

Even more fun immediately getting the paralysis self cleansed

[tiny hedge]

Archie on tornadus just sounds like you need a tank af support for that

Since lol rain

[raven crane]

Yeah.... I saw Lodge Adaman.

So that must've been an RNG fest.

[chrome halo]

thx for catching up, will fix now

[sour isle]

He hits hard though

Even at 1/5

[raven crane]

Uh huh.

[pearl pawn]

Simply a difference in skill

[tiny hedge]

that looks overkill

[sour isle]

Main tank is Lodge Jasmine

Since she has HE4 on Thundershock

[tiny hedge]

Yea... so why is suicune there

[sour isle]

And has antitoxin

[sour isle]

Rain hehe

[chrome halo]

[tiny hedge]

Eggmon tho

[sour isle]

Forgot ;-;

[raven crane]

Think I need to give Archie Rain Gear..

[tiny hedge]

Like the team would be fine, but then i see suicune and i'm just.... that's a bit much

[chrome halo]

non Vigilance Archie really appreciates that

[sour isle]

Tbh bar 1 was difficult

Lodge jasmine almost died

[tiny hedge]

You don't have to paralyze on bar 1 but true. Hurricane is hell

[raven crane]

Crit wasn't even my problem really.

I did get crit on the Heat Wave but I was at 22% anyway.

[sour isle]

She has first aid 2 and recuperation

So she could hang in there

But yeah thise hurricanes hit hard sigh

[chrome halo]

every Archie clear i saw gridded Rain Gear so i feel a bit weird when you say so

[errant moon]

I'm saving my L Jas for a physical attacker

[chrome halo]

<- non Archie haver

[errant moon]

Hopefully will have time to tank Torn's def

[raven crane]

Which is why I'm saying I should give Archie Rain Gear, haha.

[tiny hedge]

I'm cringing at my eggmons right now

[inner turret]

Jas, literally

[tiny hedge]

Tech kangkhaskan, Tech parasect, and others is giving me decision paralysis. Because they have screech..... but also body slam/stun spore.

So it's like..... ugh

[errant moon]

Stun Spore priority imo

[tiny hedge]

I know

[errant moon]

I need another 20 Torn clears and I'm sweating over para rn

[tiny hedge]

But it still irks me

[inner turret]

Tech Kang is 30% para

I didnt bother

[chrome halo]

it has Leer too

[tiny hedge]

And stomp

[inner turret]

Yeah straight to regi with bea

[errant moon]

Duo?

[inner turret]

Yes

[tiny hedge]

I already used Bea

[errant moon]

That sounds. Bad

[inner turret]

Watch my Normal Gauntlet vid

It's not!

[tiny hedge]

I'm out of fighting types actually

[inner turret]

Like, actually not

[errant moon]

[raven crane]

Wait I just mathed it, why am I stressing about bringing Paralysis? I need 19 more Tornadus victories and have 21 non-eggs that can consistently paralyze, we're cooking.

[tiny hedge]

Remember you also have Piercing Blows
