[shy notch]

I’ve seen Bulu die to wood hammer recoil and now burn lol

[vital ibex]

he tanked a +6 wood hammer at 2% hp lmao

[heavy sinew]

What next he dies to hail?

[stray sandal]

LOL YES SOMEONE IS FEELING MY PAIN

[dawn plume]

[dawn plume]

ss kris kinda busted

0 dodges on bar 3

Fuck this

[karmic willow]

Sup

Tech does not have body slam

@median swan 0 dodges gang

[rocky oasis]

why is tl calem so fucking slow

[austere crown]

flipped a coin, and landed on tails, which I chose to be LG grind

guess the world wants me to game

[feral plank]

yea i just need 2 lodge coins 1 battle points and one from the next event and i could candy her to do it

[tiny hedge]

has anyome made a team for Lodge sycamore?

[austere crown]

ok I'm so lost on the leafmon solo; could someone summarize pls?

[austere crown]

my keyword:

[tiny hedge]

SS erika?

or Leaf leaf

[austere crown]

alternatively, you can search "from: nitsuagamer tlsycamore"

sinnoh mf on Steel

Don't want to jeproadize the note taking shenanigans

[tiny hedge]

oh, both teams you had, i already used

[tiny hedge]

already used wikstrom and BP Olivia

[karmic willow]

I nearly spat my drink when i saw the damage

Like

Holy shit

HUGE

[austere crown]

move level?

[tiny hedge]

piercing blows moment on Rock slide.

[karmic willow]

1/5

[dawn plume]

so annoyed i miss c silver

[karmic willow]

Had he been 2/5 ex'd

[tiny hedge]

Welp....

[dawn plume]

low gem count beating my ass

[karmic willow]

He would have duod with eggmon

[karmic willow]

Bro no

[tiny hedge]

I don't know who else to use rn

[austere crown]

bruh which one

[tiny hedge]

tlsycamore is so squishy

[karmic willow]

Silver duh

[austere crown]

Excadrill?

[karmic willow]

Ingo is 3/5

[karmic willow]

Bp olivia

Trust

[tiny hedge]

i literally used her

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (3/5 Ingo EX, 1/5 NCSilver duo on Torn)

[austere crown]

another omni defensive buffer

[inner turret]

bruh why is techazam fall roxanne harder than i remmeber

[tiny hedge]

tina's already used

and i don't want to waste crit buffers

WAIT

Cooking now.

[dawn plume]

i was just about to do this is it rly bad

1/5 f roxanne?

[karmic willow]

Also @sturdy steeple add me pls

[inner turret]

1/5 yes

[karmic willow]

Works

Phoebe literally dodges

A bit of a waste but oh well, a win is a win

[inner turret]

it shouldn't be hard

[vital ibex]

augh

[inner turret]

but alakazam fcking refuses to flinch

[tiny hedge]

How is it a waste tho, hold on, let me show you what supports i'm working with here.

[austere crown]

pls someone help me summarize leafmon solo on Steel
if u can onyl spare a bit of time, wtf do I do bar 2?

[inner turret]

leafmon?

adaman?

[austere crown]

yeh

[tiny hedge]

@karmic willow

[inner turret]

dunno mine is 1/5 and solo'd bulu

[dawn plume]

leafmon and glacmon

[austere crown]

the:

[karmic willow]

Damn that's rough

[tiny hedge]

like, i'm starting to dip into my strong sync pairs because i'm 60+ wins now

[austere crown]

HErika, some >=40% flincher

[tiny hedge]

isn't that too much tho?

[austere crown]

holdup lemme see if I can find some +1 or +2 crit buffer

[tiny hedge]

Fall Phoebe patches the crit already

she has team sharp entry 1 on grid

[austere crown]

ooo Proton seems nice

[tiny hedge]

that's +2 crit tho

i don't get how Fall Phoebe is overkill

[austere crown]

And? If you even attempt to optimize perfectly, you're gonna suffer long term; I'm skeaing from experience.

[austere crown]

any 3/5 limited support is probably overkill for the bull let's be real

[tiny hedge]

[austere crown]

idk her kit, but I reckon she's better used on the 2 harder stages

[tiny hedge]

status immunity, unflappable, antitoxin, team sharp entry 1, potion bot, can heal from ridicure, and has flinching

also endurance

but also, I'm working with Lodge sycamore here

[austere crown]

omg she's perfect for the flying nimbus

[feral plank]

it should be ok, if you see its too easy maybe you can chage phoebe por other sup

[austere crown]

I'd suggest you switch to the executive

[tiny hedge]

BP Janine has team sharp entry 1...

but she has no way to keep TL sycamore alive unless she steals sync

[austere crown]

that's honestly fine since his DPS is mainly attack move damage

I'm more worried about him surviving

[tiny hedge]

that's my problem. LSycamore also has gauge problems too

and since BP Janine can't buff defense

[austere crown]

that's exactly why I suggested executive

at least you can fish for that juicy flinch turn 1 and go ham with that headstart

[feral plank]

doesnt phoebe have fail forward?

[austere crown]

I suggested her be used for the nimbus

[tiny hedge]

she does.

[austere crown]

she is literally the perfect counter tank

just need DPS and para, and you got yourself a pretty good team

[feral plank]

yea she can even have flying guard as lucky skill

since she already has vigi

[austere crown]

or HH if she doesn't have that in her kit

@feral plank do u know what to do with leafeeveeloution solo on Steel?

[tiny hedge]

wait....

TL Dawn/TL Sycamore?

[feral plank]

leaf and eevee? i did it with no mind games , just potion check and iron tail and tackle spam

[feral plank]

just do the solo then

with tl dawn

[austere crown]

goddammit the sinnoh mf

[tiny hedge]

read my name

[austere crown]

add eggmon only

[feral plank]

do it anyways 😄

https://tenor.com/view/sml-bowser-junior-i-just-feel-like-im-forgetting-something-i-feel-like-im-forgetting-something-forgetting-something-gif-23847914

oh yeah the leaf grid for the solo

[austere crown]

ur joking...

does no one online have 3/5 Leafeon EX?

[tiny hedge]

ok.... why solo with Trainer Lodge Dawn when I won't use Sycamore literally anywhere else?

like... what is his point, if i already used BP Olivia and Wikstrom

[austere crown]

do you have a weaker DPS unit? if so, then just use that instead.

[feral plank]

nope it doesn't seem like it

[tender horizon]

Which Leafeo

N

[tiny hedge]

TL Sycamore isn't weak enough?

[feral plank]

adaman

[tender horizon]

Then i dont have

[feral plank]

u got tl adaman?

[austere crown]

fucking shit

[tiny hedge]

i don't even have adaman

[feral plank]

i'm still candying him

rip

tl adaman can carry tl sycamore

did it the last time

[tiny hedge]

y'know what, screw it, TLDawn, and TL Sycamore since you're all giving me options that either are "too strong", "can solo" or "Have a W E A K E R U N I T T H A N TLSYCAMORE"

[austere crown]

did you even check your remaining eggmons?

[feral plank]

D:

[tiny hedge]

eggmons aren't going to keep TLSycamore alive

[austere crown]

bro I meant on replacing him

[feral plank]

have u seen now the adaman solo anywhere or no?

[tiny hedge]

replacing TL Sycamore. I'm wanting to use him in the first place

[tender horizon]

I do hv tl sycamore leftover and i hvnt thougjt who to use him with hmmm

[austere crown]

no, and I'm reluctant to use my low battery headphones, but ig it can't be helped.
Either that or I delay his solo.

[shy sinew]

3/5 Adaman EX? I do

[feral plank]

i can send u grid and see the video and give u tips give me 5 mins

[austere crown]

I fyou still have supp pidgeot, u could try comfey, bulbasaur, bird

[austere crown]

EXPLAIN PLS

summarize*

[feral plank]

help nitsua then

[austere crown]

I got shit on at bar 2 Hyper Beam

[shy sinew]

Registeel solo yeah?

[tender horizon]

Oh i hv Evelyn leftover

[austere crown]

I'll do the GalarianArticuno solo in the meantime

[feral plank]

use b move bar 1 and 2,get good dc2 procs, 1 tm mpr atleast, and some synthesis mprs (2 atleast)

most importantly don get rafa'd

and DON'T DIE

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/28400/47000?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=18040702&g=AAECAwQFERMUFRcYIyUnKi0u

Vid: https://youtu.be/Bb1mJgNM0_g?si=qom5IW2XjyvzJZrK

I did this in the days before HP percentages but you need to skip every half bar transition (overfarming for first sync), 2 synthesis MPR required but no TM MPR (also did with skill gear because I didn't have grass gear, grass gear would actually be an improvement here to prevent overdamaging bars 2/3)

[karmic willow]

Scary as shit

But yeh i won

Topsy turvey

[tiny hedge]

Bruh, TLSycamore is so bad

dies to sync at 40% Hp.

[tender horizon]

Indeed

[feral plank]

D:

[tender horizon]

Cooking again

I hv no idea where to use these fire types

[rocky oasis]

TIL valeries speed is one of the worst

[karmic willow]

Interesting

[tiny hedge]

LMAO why bother having a fun time when Tapu bulu just EZMA'S ME WITH A HAMMER

[dull zealot]

Bulu just keeps landing random crits.

[tender horizon]

Ok tht was stupid

[feral plank]

what happned?

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (TLIrida, FRoxxane duo on RSteel)

[tiny hedge]

[feral plank]

😄

[vital ibex]

woohoo

[austere crown]

is the Typhlosion solo hard?

[vital ibex]

It's so-so

It's an evasion solo but you have more leeway since ethan's TM is a potion

Just run stoic and watch out for special moves cuz they melt him

[rocky oasis]

bar 1 is the hardest

imo

[vital ibex]

Yeah for sure

Energy ball just eats at your health

[rocky oasis]

only thing to fear from bar 2 is the seed bomb crit

[vital ibex]

Even then if he’s above 50% hp he can tank it

Even with sure crit

Getting a few tm mprs definitely helps

[quaint tartan]

I just realized ssroxie cannot paralyze

[quaint tartan]

Only once with gmax 50%

[karmic willow]

Support weezing to the rescue

[loud shell]

I think its a roll for her max move to para or poison

[quaint tartan]

Yup, I don’t know why but I thought there was something on her grid to paralyse

[loud shell]

Piers has HE1 Thunder so he's meant to partner with her

[quaint tartan]

Piers is already gone with Roxanne

[loud shell]

Have a stray poison type eggmon?

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (Support Weezing, BPFalkner duo on Bulu)

[heavy sinew]

Yay

My turn to do that

[loud shell]

When does gauntlet end?

[shy sinew]

12 resets from now (it's the reset that happens on 24 April my time)

[loud shell]

Oh wow longer than I thought for people to do clears

That's nice

[austere crown]

my god the Rolexed living legend rat is so brainless to use

[loud shell]

Oh yeah I need to role cake him, I forgot

[dull zealot]

Oh damn. I'm nowhere being patient with Evasion tanking.

[vital ibex]

What's a cheap duo with bp barry?

I simply refuse to do his solo

On torn if it wasnt obvious

[loud shell]

Striker Raichu?

[vital ibex]

Sure

[austere crown]

first rafa'd sync

[inner turret]

first of many

[austere crown]

quadqueue ftw

Torterra pls proc speed buff early

[dull zealot]

Trying out the BP Falkner + Def Support Eggmon duo vs. Tapu Bulu. So far, Tapu Bulu has 95% accuracy with -6 Acc. debuff.

[vital ibex]

Ok maybe too cheap

Dies within first bar

[tiny hedge]

oh my god, this TLSycamore team is unbearable

can't tank a sync, can't heal enough, and worst of all, uses way too much gauge to reliably quadqueue

[austere crown]

welcome to LG optimization

[loud shell]

Could go with Tech raichu it has regen

but no thunder spam

[karmic willow]

five

FIVE

FIVE FUCKING SYNCS

NO CRIT

IN. A ROW

Stupid sc ingo

[dull zealot]

Of course the Energy Ball connects and does over 300 damage.

[loud shell]

Not enough energy for follow through I take it?

[karmic willow]

Useless

[inner turret]

Wow archie lodge adaman duo first try

[loud shell]

On who?

[inner turret]

torn ofc

what +4E does to a run

[tight rivet]

what is the difference between catalyst and catalytic acceleration

[feral plank]

solo?

[inner turret]

one is every sync

the other is 1st sync

[tight rivet]

thats really stupid but i figured it out already

[loud shell]

Both screw up quad queueing

[karmic willow]

Trio

Can't even win

Like

WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO FOR THIS

[loud shell]

What's the trio?

[sturdy steeple]

My friends list is like full

But I'll see if I can make space

[karmic willow]

Fuck this shit

Finally i can crit

Like goddamn it's infuriating

[tight rivet]

isnt this really overkill

[karmic willow]

No it's not

[tight rivet]

or is ingo that bad

[karmic willow]

Ingo 2/5

He needs the attack buff

[loud shell]

Ingo has no form of actual dps

[tight rivet]

oh

[karmic willow]

This is literally

All nuke

No bite

1/5 grusha

2/5 ingo ex

So yeah, it is definitely not overkill

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (1/5 Grusha, 2/5 SCIngo EX, Support Nidoking on RSteel)

[sturdy steeple]

That's kinda overkill

All three of those units can be used to support others

But it's whatever

[tiny hedge]

Ech.

[tender horizon]

Somehow im rank 48 now

[austere crown]

@robust nymph Do you still remember the Giratina duo on Steel? Kinda stumped on this one.

[austere crown]

what streak? I'm curious, but I don't want to deal with PoMa crashing

[dull zealot]

Of course Bulu keeps landing the forced crit Seed Bomb while having -6 accuracy.

[tiny hedge]

Any idea on where to put SC Steven in?

I'd assume Regi, but the only other unit i have for physical fighting damage is either SC Barry, or Gladion

[shy sinew]

solgaleo does special damage tho right

[tiny hedge]

special yes.

but sunsteel strike is physical

but if i were to use solgaleo to begin with, he'd go to tornadus

[loud shell]

What Move level is barry?

[austere crown]

trio with Silvally unless you have the Kanto Snorlax pair.

[tiny hedge]

1/5

I COULD candy him, but I don't see the need yet

[loud shell]

A duo would be kinda hard with him and steven

[tiny hedge]

already used Snorlax

[loud shell]

but the damage might be enough to muscle through bar 2

[austere crown]

k then Normal duo + filler meatshield or something that lasts long enough ig

[errant plume]

Time to start 2v1 runs tomorrow

[blazing linden]

Shock Factor 1

Has a chance (20%) of lowering the target's Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, and Speed by one stat rank when the user's attack move is successful against a paralyzed opponent.

Sync Pairs with Passive:

Elesa (Classic) & Emolga

[tiny hedge]

Oh wait, i still have NC red to destroy tornadus with

that's a big pog

[dawn plume]

f roxanne / tech alakazam duo sucks

im not trying this anymore lmao

havent even made it past bar 2 yet

[stray sandal]

Bro Ethan is lame

I need to do an overkill run

[austere crown]

If you're planning to use him as a psuedo piercing blows unit, keep in mind that he needs another rebuff user; otherwise, his BMove is going to be locked away for a bar.

[heavy sinew]

You WHAT

I kneel

[tiny hedge]

ooooh good catch nitsua

let me think

[heavy sinew]

if you have a 1/5 unit with rebuff it can work

I used ss wally

other stuff like sc Lyra works

[shy sinew]

guess ik what to do with my 1/5 sc lyra then

[austere crown]

Is it really worth to use Gourgeist as rebuff fodder just so I can use Articuno as a nimbus counter...?

[heavy sinew]

1/5 fallister?

[austere crown]

yeh

[heavy sinew]

I guess that's fine? 2 rebuff instances is kinda too good tho

but he doesn't get much at 1/5 so it's a win imo

[tiny hedge]

Now hear me out.

[heavy sinew]

Yea that works

I think someone did it

[austere crown]

• I can afford to spam syncs if I run those 2 limiteds together

[heavy sinew]

Trope I think

I don't have Lyra so idk how she works, but apply rebuff in bar 2 with her so red can save his rebuff for bar 3

[tiny hedge]

any attack she does causes rebuff

[heavy sinew]

ok so just

[tiny hedge]

saving it for Bar 2 then sync with NC Red

[heavy sinew]

Don't attack with her until bar 2

Lol

[austere crown]

ig she's not attacking

[heavy sinew]

yup

[austere crown]

I think you can afford to sync with Phanpy in the meantime, unless sync also counts for her rebuff passive

[dawn plume]

i still haven’t used c red whoops

[tiny hedge]

she needs flying guard lmao

[heavy sinew]

It says user's attack move so I think sync does count?

[tiny hedge]

she can tank 6 hurricanes

tempted on adding Egglaceon

i'm laughing at how dumb this is working

[heavy sinew]

flying guard + flying resist from TM

she shouldn't die

Unless

[tight rivet]

i tried using redlax and riley on registeel and it just refuses to work

do i give this mf ground guard for earthquake or like what

[tiny hedge]

Lmaooooo

finally. SC Lyra useful for once

[tiny hedge]

I used Brawly/Riley for the better potion tbh

because screw me if you think i'd suffer on riley solo lmao

[worthy horizon]

i mean there's only one person who hasn't suffered on the riley solo without spending orbs

as far as i can tell

[heavy sinew]

gonna make that two brb

[worthy horizon]

godspeed brother

[inner turret]

it's not thaaaaat bad

(it kinda is)

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (1/5 SCLyra EX, 3/5 NCRed EX duo on Torn)

[worthy horizon]

(this can't end well)

[austere crown]

what's the cheapest fodder I can give to Riley? Meatshield(s)?

[tiny hedge]

This is overkill....... maybe duo with sawyer/Scsteven?

But also.... hmm

[inner turret]

if something here duos it's sawyer gladion

sawyer steven can't do shit lol

where's your damage

[tiny hedge]

Literally the sync

[inner turret]

oh yeah 4/5 steven

ig

[tiny hedge]

Dude's sync is literal unga bunga

[loud shell]

His innate is relentless right?

[inner turret]

yes

[tiny hedge]

wow, he can flinch too

This dude is stacked

restrained scope too omg

I can save leer for all three bars and just nuke him, this sounds fun lmao

[errant moon]

I did SC Steven/Wally

it's not easy though

[tiny hedge]

already used Wally, granted i have 4/5 SC Stevem

so I can nuke with SC Steven alone

[errant moon]

that works

[loud shell]

You won't be able to use leer beyond bar 1

Its tied to rebuffs

[tiny hedge]

OH DAMN IT.

[loud shell]

You're going to have to debuff bar 1 and get lucky with flinches

[inner turret]

Rebuff is cringe in LG lol

[tiny hedge]

I can't flinch unless he has the no evasion tag

[errant moon]

remember the flinch is locked to the No E-yes

[inner turret]

Lol

[tiny hedge]

[inner turret]

You can queue a leer before going to bar 2

But thats about it

[loud shell]

I meant sawyer

[errant moon]

yep, that's what i did

you just have to get v lucky with timing

[tiny hedge]

Hold up, i still got thorton

I'm cooking again

[stray sandal]

Yo I am hating thissssss😂

[dull zealot]

Finally got the BP Falkner + Egg Cloyster clear on Tapu Bulu. Somehow managed to get Falkner to Bulu's bar 3 while having 87% HP.

[stray sandal]

I keep getting these solid mpr runs then wood hammer still hits

[tiny hedge]

Would selene be overkill if i'm using her to constantly restrain for SC Steven nuke?

[worthy horizon]

finally found a bp valerie duo i was happy with

ft2 dc2

[tiny hedge]

like selene could be useful for bulu.... but... It's bulu

[loud shell]

Doesn't she solo bulu?

[errant moon]

she can yeah

[inner turret]

If EX

[tiny hedge]

how EASY is her solo?

she is EXed

[inner turret]

Apparently it's kinda fine ?

[tiny hedge]

hmm... what about Nessa?

[inner turret]

Only needs 1 TM MPR

[worthy horizon]

if you can't do shauna, absolutely not

don't try

[inner turret]

Oh yeah lol

[loud shell]

?

[modest oar]

Not easy. But she easily duos with Nidoqueen

[tiny hedge]

Listen, shauna was trash because of freaking not being EXed

[errant moon]

lemme check if I have Nidoqueen, tech?

[modest oar]

She gets wrecked by Bar 3 without 2 mprs

[loud shell]

Yeah it'd be tech for attack debuffs

[modest oar]

Yeah tech

[tiny hedge]

i'll duo with her then for bulu

so using Nessa for regi to have SC Steven unga nuke

[loud shell]

Still sawyer as the tank?

[tiny hedge]

ye

[loud shell]

I think you could honestly duo with them

just give steven dc2

[tiny hedge]

Steven won't have his sync multipliers

[loud shell]

He still has relentless innate and a tech ex

[tiny hedge]

true...

[inner turret]

Jo said he did it with a single MPR

[errant moon]

tanking with Selene obvs? I do have Nidoqueen ready to go

[modest oar]

Yeah

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (EMisty EX, BPValerie duo on RSteel)

[tiny hedge]

oh right, sawyer's weak to electric

[loud shell]

Maybe sync with sawyer for synchro healing in bar 1 to stack a few buffs?

[tiny hedge]

i have to sync with him to begin with to get max crit

[loud shell]

Could pick up the mpr if you don't want to

[tiny hedge]

gonna try MC torchic + SCSteven

[worthy horizon]

grid misty for synchro healing and tm mpr instead of potion mpr

bp valerie grid was standard

[loud shell]

How lucky were you with FT procs?

[tiny hedge]

nope, MCtorchic can't survive

[loud shell]

What do you have left for supports?

[tiny hedge]

a lot.

[loud shell]

Maylene maybe?

[tiny hedge]

already used

defense is not a problem

[loud shell]

I was thnking drain punch for self heals

[tiny hedge]

nah, already used her

[loud shell]

You have marshall?

[tiny hedge]

all my fighting types are used up

all of them

[loud shell]

Eggs too?

[tiny hedge]

yes

I just need someone to raise SC Steven's crit and survive long enough to tank hyper beam/giga impact

[loud shell]

Sawyer has endurance right?

[tiny hedge]

dies to sync

[worthy horizon]

had like one proc for most of bar 1 so probably not great lol

[loud shell]

Are you spamming dark pulse for flinches?

[tiny hedge]

I'm buffing first.

Actually, Falkner seems nice here

[loud shell]

I'd treat it like sleep chaining first. Start with a tackle + Dark pulse flinch, then dire hit, the dark pulse etc

Yeah fly dodging works

[tiny hedge]

and i can buff fairly fast.

Yes, keep paralyzing me regi, love it

[austere crown]

Mind if I ask what your trying atm?

This seems rather intriguing

[tiny hedge]

Falkner/SCSteven Duo on regi

[austere crown]

Oh dang gl

Pray that the rng gods are kind today, especially for this clear

[tiny hedge]

it actually can work funnily enough

[austere crown]

idk… sounds like a lot needs to line up for this duo

[tiny hedge]

Fair enough, added tech khangkhaska

[austere crown]

If Stoutland has a spammable perma flinch, you might be better off stalling offensive buffs

[tiny hedge]

He doesn't unless there's no evasion

[austere crown]

Therefore, Bar 1 stall

[tiny hedge]

can't because no evasion is tied to rebuff

I could thorton....

[loud shell]

He's got defense crush gyro ball on his grid to help too

[austere crown]

Is the dog self suff?

[loud shell]

No

No attack or crit buffs

only speed

He was DNA's first attempt at a sprint pair without making a sprint role

[austere crown]

Frail, full buff Support (e.g: baby chicken), dog, sentient metal?

You do have access to double flinch

[loud shell]

Sure may spam his TM for the speed buffs?

[austere crown]

That’s + chick Flame Charge is what I’m banking on

[loud shell]

GL man

[austere crown]

Tell that to Linkable, cuz they’re the ones doing the clear; I’m just theorizing.

[loud shell]

@tiny hedge Do you have Hugh free?

[tiny hedge]

yea

but why tho?

[loud shell]

He 6*?

[tiny hedge]

yes

I am not SCstevening+Hughing

[loud shell]

Tank with Hugh and use the dog to buff steven

[tiny hedge]

SC Steven is 4/5

[austere crown]

Are you gonna suggest normal tech duo?

[loud shell]

buff hugh

Hugh has headbutt aggravation and recuperation

He's a legitimate tank with his built in full restore

[austere crown]

What comp are you implying? I’m not following entirely…

[loud shell]

Hugh + SC Steven

Steven debuffs bar one + flinch spams, Hugh nukes bar two and flinches bar 3

[worthy horizon]

what does hugh even do at 2/5

[austere crown]

Nothing lmao

[loud shell]

Who said 2/5?

[worthy horizon]

me

[loud shell]

You'd need 3/5 for what I'm suggesting

[worthy horizon]

ye

[austere crown]

You cursed with 2/5?

[worthy horizon]

yeeeeep

[loud shell]

I'd throw him in as a suicide spammer

Pick your poison for gauntlet boss

[tiny hedge]

LMAO that was actually a fun clear

[austere crown]

Atp, just run him as a meatshield.

[loud shell]

What'd you end up with?

[austere crown]

Interesting that this worked for dog nuke

[tiny hedge]

No evasion allows SC Steven to flinch with tackle. which saved me from a focus blast

So i was spamming zen headbutt into telekinesis into gyro ball + Takle

[shy sinew]

my adaman all of a sudden decided that he doesn't have dc2 as now I'm trying to replicate my registeel solo 😦

[tiny hedge]

also, the doggo clear was Win streak funni number

[vital ibex]

Who's a good duo partner for nc red on torn

EXR 3/5

[austere crown]

Any rebuff unit

[loud shell]

Gordie maybe? Two reliable uses of rebuff on command

[austere crown]

Bro any rebuff unit works

[loud shell]

Most give rebuff on first move is the problem

[austere crown]

Linkable just did a duo with Phanpy

[shy sinew]

then just don't use them until you're ready to apply rebuff? I don't see the problem there

[vital ibex]

My options are gordie, sc zinnia and ss hilbert

[loud shell]

Hilbert is overkill

[vital ibex]

Ig gordie since i could use sc zinnia on regi and hilbert on torn

Yea I figured

[austere crown]

Seriously no other rebuffer? Dang.

[vital ibex]

Used adaman already

And nc blue

I really dont have a lot of rebuffers lol

[austere crown]

Man 🐴

[errant moon]

thorton?

[kind imp]

Nc red can also duo regi with egg glaceon

[tiny hedge]

@kind imp how would you be able to handle third bar?

[kind imp]

Idk

[tiny hedge]

LMAO

[kind imp]

I just know the duo exists

https://youtu.be/ilGHZR-mH0Y

[tiny hedge]

OH, i thought you meant torn

[karmic willow]

Maybe in the next run

I can already know which ones are gonna get supported but

Sc emmet already used so oof. Though the evasion and speed is appreciated on other kinds of clears on Bulu

For grusha, idk. Ice zone is strong but idk who can make use of it. Realistically Candice to combo on Bulu and not much else

And of course, tech nido is a no brainer on bp clemont

[austere crown]

Tech Nido?

[heavy sinew]

quit riley

I got so close

but i couldn't queue cc on time

and giga impact killed

[worthy gate]

it not your fault

half bar quad is rng

[vital ibex]

Thorton doesn't have rebuff

[errant moon]

I didn't even try the solo, just went straight for egg kanga after reading all of the attempts here lmfao

[heavy sinew]

any mr duos?

some people are using him on bulu

[kind imp]

Same but sup Machamp duo

[heavy sinew]

but i think he fits on regi

[errant moon]

my b, forgot it was defensive not offensive

[kind imp]

The timing is weird

I think it's the game trying and failing to buff atk from max knuckle

[heavy sinew]

yep

thats probably it

gonna try again

hopefully i get it this time

[heavy sinew]

meh

worth a shot

[errant moon]

selene is made of paper my gawd

(laughing through the pain)

[worthy horizon]

yea i hit the giga impact quadqueue like 1/3 or 1/4 times out of the 3 times i did the riley solo

[heavy sinew]

anyone else used lodge serena on steel?

[worthy gate]

me think its just half bar transition quad being rng

[modest oar]

I tried to do FRoxanne and Alakazam for an hour with no luck so far

Registeel drives me insane

[worthy gate]

happened a lot in my runs

[errant moon]

couldn't go past the L Serena solo on Bulu, didn't consider Steel

interesting idea though

[worthy horizon]

managed that one first try at 5* 0/20, idk how lucky i got

[heavy sinew]

I ALMOST HAD IT AGAIn

NOOOOOOOO

[worthy gate]

lserena can fully nuke bar 2 and bar 3

[worthy horizon]

yea takes several attempts to get there

[heavy sinew]

i pressed it 1 frame early

[worthy gate]

its just bar 1 rng

[heavy sinew]

weak to electric tho

[worthy gate]

actually no she cant nuke bar 2 cause poison weak

[heavy sinew]

careful of tbolts

[worthy gate]

[winter creek]

Team-building to take on the dumb giant metal ball!

[errant moon]

oh no I mean I did the Bulu solo ahaha

[heavy sinew]

oh lol

[young forge]

who's a good partner for Lodge Wally against Bulu? I don't want to do the solo

I was debating 1.5 Lysandre, who I paired with Jasmine EX before, but I might use Jasmine for Registeel instead

[heavy sinew]

god i hate this so much i almost did riley

[worthy horizon]

xd

classic

[winter creek]

Wait, what?

[worthy horizon]

not aware riley can solo?

[heavy sinew]

regi

[winter creek]

Riley can solo!?

[worthy horizon]

most people hate it, i still think it's easy but i have higher investment than most

[winter creek]

No wonder why

[rain iris]

on my best run of colress torn solo yet
he self cleanses before I can nuke the second bar
whatever, I have plenty of hp buffer
I get ready to sync the 2nd time on bar 2
he self cleanses right before it again

[heavy sinew]

wait did i give him +2 energy

[worthy horizon]

did it once in practice before lg, once during with the wrong lucky skill, and once after with downgraded gear

[heavy sinew]

damn it i did

[errant moon]

has anyone done the Penny solo on Bulu?

[heavy sinew]

i dont remember when

tf

[errant moon]

I was going to pair her with a low-tier fairy but this looks actually doable

[heavy sinew]

3/5?

[errant moon]

yup, and EX

[heavy sinew]

go for it ig

[chrome halo]

I did the solo in the last Bulu LG, it requires Grass Guard and a half decent skill gears set

[worthy horizon]

if riley wasn't event-exclusive i'd actually consider making an alt just to do it again on a clean downgrade

[errant moon]

low tier fairy it is thank you gakon

[heavy sinew]

got 2 mprs but regi survived bar 1 at 1%

you can prob guess what happened

[worthy horizon]

wouldn't change the fact that everyone else hates doing it but still

[winter creek]

Dang.

[chrome halo]

Wyntamore's gear helped a lot

[winter creek]

What happened next?

[pearl beacon]

embed fail

[heavy sinew]

embed fail

pain

[errant moon]

i haven't used Katherine yet, I'll go with her

she's my worst special fairy remaining

[pearl beacon]

HOW
I used the Gif feature from the emoticon

Discord getting worse

[shy sinew]

servers have been able to make that a role-based permission for a while now (I think? this is not the first time I've see that)

[heavy sinew]

https://tenor.com/view/regice-regirock-registeel-running-run-gif-16398635

[chrome halo]

She is a great sleep enabler. I recommend saving her for a Regi sleep team

She has good nuke after a few sync buffs to nuke bar 3

[errant moon]

....explain

[raven crane]

Anyone I can use with Marlon and a Paralysis egg for Tornadus?

[chrome halo]

Fast Track 9 magic

[heavy sinew]

^

[errant moon]

i'm skill-issuing hard, how does that enable sleep?

[heavy sinew]

always procs

[chrome halo]

And evasion debuff to help with sleeping moves

[kind imp]

Relatable
I remember people using 1/5 ex or 3/5 SS lyra on bulu/latios, instead of registeel and entei while I lurked thinking "it's not that bad"

[errant moon]

so the FT9 lets you spam sleep moves while the evasion lowering ensures they always hit?

like the maxed speed, i mean

[sturdy steeple]

ya can brute force torn with cmarnie with marlon

[heavy sinew]

you can????

why is this news to me what de hell

[sturdy steeple]

i did it on my streak

[errant moon]

maybe i'll hurt my feelings and use Penny/Diantha on Steel

no idea wtf else to do with

[worthy gate]

marlon needs ex?

[heavy sinew]

damn i shouldn't have used rachel then

sad

[sturdy steeple]

marlon does not have ex

[raven crane]

She's a good ole 1/5.

https://tenor.com/view/bongo-cat-volo-pokemon-percupio-pokemon-fav-gif-25258360

Embed L.

[sturdy steeple]

thats valid im using her on registeel too so im inclined to agree ehe

[errant moon]

best of luck to us!

[shy sinew]

maybe I will too, idk 1/5 diantha tho

[tight rivet]

do you think thats possible with a 1/5 penny

[heavy sinew]

low rolled on 2nd sync

how

[tight rivet]

stat leech can help if you time it well id imagine

[sturdy steeple]

in that case, if you are looking for a damage dealer, you should opt for a damage dealer with decent self sustaining gauge (and self buffs)

[pearl beacon]

I got 1/5 ncMarnie, maybe this should work for me

[worthy horizon]

i never suffered any low damage rolls on the riley solo

[raven crane]

I'm trying Sygna Suit Roxie.

[worthy gate]

what skill gear

[heavy sinew]

i forgor

[sturdy steeple]

that should would

[errant moon]

could be rough but penny does have a lot of the handy stuff at base, including the spdef drops you need

[sturdy steeple]

Should work*

[errant moon]

defs possible imo

[worthy gate]

+100 attack can fail if you low damage roll on bar 3 as well

[tight rivet]

yeah but my diantha is also only 3/5

aka gauge nightmare

[worthy gate]

its big oof

[heavy sinew]

thanks paralysis

[heavy sinew]

90

[worthy horizon]

lv 140 no role i presume?

[heavy sinew]

yes

[worthy gate]

oh

mine is 150 +100 attack

sync never lowroll though

only max into cc

[errant moon]

oof yeah that could be a little rough

holy shit i might actually be able to make use of Initial Synchro Healing for the first time ever

[heavy sinew]

got the queue

and

[errant moon]

[heavy sinew]

lost

welp

[worthy gate]

giga impacted?

[heavy sinew]

yes

he was at 7%

[worthy horizon]

yea i would recommend the level upgrade

[worthy gate]

yeah thats too much

mine was 2% when i lowrolled

[heavy sinew]

damn man

i dont even got certificates

stupid game

maybe i do need -6 def then?

i was at -5

[worthy horizon]

prob

[worthy gate]

he was at -6 def in my run

but yeah try to get as low as possible

[heavy sinew]

easier said than done

[worthy gate]

invert has godly def debuff procs

mine is like really bad

most of the time he didnt even get to -4

[worthy horizon]

i did?

[worthy gate]

you said miss were actually good for your riley run no?

[worthy horizon]

yep

[worthy gate]

mine cant afford misses cause he just wont proc debuff

[worthy horizon]

my successful runs ended at -4ish i think

[worthy horizon]

also i have passive boosts on my skill gear

[raven crane]

Jesus Christ Roxie.

One shot the last bar with the Max Move.

She's 1/5.

[worthy gate]

ah that probably helped a bit

[raven crane]

Thoughts on Maylene and BP Valerie vs Registeel?

[worthy horizon]

bp valerie won't survive

[raven crane]

Despite flinches?

[sturdy steeple]

sounds like a gauge nightmare

[worthy horizon]

crit super effective earthquakes on top of the defense debuffs

[raven crane]

Well it's not a duo.

But yeah, probably.

[heavy sinew]

2nd body slam proc'd and i got para'd wtf

[errant moon]

thank you to LG for letting me use Diantha's 5/5 synchro healing tile for literally the first time ever

[heavy sinew]

iIT HAPPENED AGAIN

WTF

riley proc def crush & oar challenge

registeel dont para challenge

[errant moon]

what's the cheapest duo y'all have used for SS Erika on Bulu? these eggmons ain't it

[sturdy steeple]

solo...

[heavy sinew]

yea solo

[errant moon]

please don't make me do the solo

[sturdy steeple]

but the worst sun egg setter would be flareon if you dont wanna fish for mpr

[errant moon]

that's who I was trying okay i'll keep going

[sturdy steeple]

youd be better to just not attack with it at all and just use it for sunny day

[errant moon]

yeah you can maybe get two out if you're lucky i'll see how i go

[raven crane]

What should I give Rosa for DPS (/Nuke?) vs Bulu? Fast-Track?

[tiny hedge]

I got 3 hurricane misses in a row, this is not as easy as you think it looks.

[heavy sinew]

riley proc def crush challenge

omg

no gauge for bar 2

[raven crane]

Wood Hammer one shotting Rosa?

Ah, kay.

[heavy sinew]

yea he can do that with no sotoic

stoic

so uh

[worthy horizon]

yeah rosa solo can easily be one of the most tilting

[heavy sinew]

run stoic

[worthy horizon]

takes forever to get there and also gets one-shot by wood hammer

[raven crane]

I did ask with no response, so that's useful.

[worthy horizon]

i never bothered completing

[errant moon]

i put Rosa with an eggmon bc i was getting too tilted

[worthy horizon]

nat crits or +6 wood hammer which he'll have at the last half bar still one-shot +6 rosa

[tiny hedge]

SS Mina + Bede seems fun for Registeel

[kind imp]

Move levels?

[tiny hedge]

both 3/5

[modest oar]

I think it's probably overkill

[kind imp]

I thought the mina solo was fine

[tiny hedge]

there's a mina solo?

[kind imp]

Only lost the first attempt to double iron head flinch and second to para, won in the third

Yup

[tiny hedge]

for?

[kind imp]

Regi

[tiny hedge]

huh.

[raven crane]

I had one attack miss and it was the KOing Giga Drain.

[tiny hedge]

It can't be that ov-

[heavy sinew]

got the queue btw

[worthy horizon]

yea need the levels/better skill gear

[heavy sinew]

God damn it dude

I really don't wanna invest in Riley of all people

[worthy horizon]

xd

time to duo

[heavy sinew]

I hate this

So much

But I have to

[worthy gate]

🤝

[worthy horizon]

got that pretty quickly but had a ton of tm mprs

ww3/vigilance

naomi setup

[raven crane]

Bertha can paralyze?

[kind imp]

no

[raven crane]

So just brute force?

[kind imp]

ye

[raven crane]

Sounds like Hell.

[worthy gate]

5/5 would lower the rng due to sand ext probably

[errant moon]

i'm so impressed by that duo. i'm also not going to do it

[worthy horizon]

funny thing is ss morty/ex r ss red took me longer

[tiny hedge]

Ok wow, you weren't kidding on this being easy.

Although the flinch anxiety is rough

[errant moon]

investment?

[tiny hedge]

3/5 EX

[errant moon]

sigh. perhaps i will finally candy her

[tiny hedge]

She needs it for fairy kingdom

[kind imp]

also the next hs is fairy/water

so

[tiny hedge]

I might 5/5 her ngl. The synchro healing sounds REALLY nice

[errant moon]

yeah i need to suck it up and do it, she's really Not Great at 1/5

[modest oar]

You probably should. I might do the same with SS Hau since 1/5 sucks for him

[errant moon]

yeah I have the candies, so let's get this bread, etc

[tiny hedge]

I look at other players near me and..... please say sike and say this was you hittin quit on accident.

[errant moon]

i feel the pain in that screenshot

[stray sandal]

Hmm but it was only 7th clear maybe he did some hard clear to start

[tiny hedge]

no....

their first clear was Mix red with Support Sprigatito....

on Bulu.

5/5 Mix red

[stray sandal]

Then maybe they just don’t give a f and want to troll people like us 😂

[raven crane]

This Volo Registeel solo makes me hope this lithium battery in my phone pops like a balloon.

[tiny hedge]

volo can solo registeel?

[raven crane]

Tapu Bulu.*

[tiny hedge]

o

[raven crane]

Think I'm just gonna say fuck it and do a duo or something.

[vital ibex]

good ass skill gear for victor

absolutely fat hp stat

[heavy sinew]

Amen brother

God I feel so terrible

like

I could've solo'd

But

Machamp couldn't be used elsewhere

[worthy gate]

ayee nice

[heavy sinew]

50

But at what cost

[worthy gate]

you reset run but still more ws than me

shouldnt took 3 days break

[young forge]

Is Nemona 1/5 EX + SS Elesa EX vs Tornadus a waste?

[heavy sinew]

Realized I don't have support weezing for bp falkner

uhhh

What can work instead

[dull zealot]

Whew. Kiawe + SS Brock duo vs. Registeel wasn't so bad.

[dawn plume]

i did that one and hated it

i did get it eventually but it was pretty hard

[worthy horizon]

i ran tech pidgeot before i heard people saying anything about it and i thought that was easy, 30% flinch and theme bonuses

[dull zealot]

At the same time, I did get a good amount of Potion MPR procs and Brock got some necessary Flinches in.

[worthy horizon]

i max invested tho

[dawn plume]

yea thats what i needed

i had stoic on kiawe and unbending on brock

[dull zealot]

Yeah, get the Flinch on Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.

Same with Kiawe. MGR on Brock.

[heavy sinew]

dang

Support Pidgeot also has 30% flinch so idk

[worthy horizon]

that would be a straight upgrade then, i don't have one

[dull zealot]

Yeah, they dropped the ball on Tech Pidgeot.

[pearl beacon]

Both 0/20 5*

Saving ssKris for something else
or literally not using her bcs I'm wasting the little time I have

[stray sandal]

How long did this take. If less than 8 resets please can I have grid? 😂

I got 4/5 rose but haven’t found a suitable tank for regi… any ideas? Tried Rachel and got to bar 3 but need some solid luck. Marley was a bad idea due to ground weak…

[worthy horizon]

the rng requirement probably isn't nearly as bad as i was imagining https://youtu.be/kpMNi2iOyX0

on rewatching

prob like just 2 tm mprs needed

[bitter gate]

noice

[sturdy steeple]

Def crush would've helped a lot vs bar 3 but I understand wanting to save cookies

[bitter gate]

Sharp entry lucky cookie tate strikes again

[pearl beacon]

Just 4 tries after changing grid
I was trying with tighen/tighten before but those sucks
This run needed just one TM mpr from Rachel
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=006700019700&s0=5&l0=150&r0=5&p0=0&a0=24011001&t0=111&g0=AAECAwQFBhETGhwfIiQmKSssLQ&v1=002800023000&s1=5&l1=140&r1=5&p1=0&a1=18020301&t1=11111&g1=AAECAwQFBgcKDRAeISgrLQ&v2=0

[bitter gate]

I saw somebody use fall Caitlin against torn without paralysis

Does anyone have uhh

Any ideas

[worthy horizon]

yeah defense crush would have been an upgrade

just opted to give it a shot with what i had first

[pearl beacon]

Oh, to grab both cakewalk n interference sync?

[sturdy steeple]

I believe it was a para eggmon

[kind imp]

#1012311116778586182 message

this?

technically solgaleo is para-less

[worthy horizon]

yea there were a couple mentions of fall caitlin today, one was that and the other included a para eggmon

[bitter gate]

Cakewalk + agg + speedy entry

[bitter gate]

Was it a duo or

[worthy horizon]

trio

[magic nymph]

Cerena can debuff def right

So i can use for steel

[chrome halo]

yes

[heavy sinew]

wtf

i finally have use for cynthia??

[worthy horizon]

getting close

2/5 hugh, 4* roxie

[heavy sinew]

i have my cyn 5/5 +10 e so i guess this can work

idk whether to keep bertha sandstorm mpr tho

[hallow gull]

You should win this easy

[worthy horizon]

i'm not sure i even needed it

[heavy sinew]

if anything stealth rock mpr for chip

lol

[hallow gull]

I dont have 4/5 Cynthia so i must L Volo/Naomi/Bertha

And that requires like 6-7 Sandstorm mpr

[chrome halo]

[dawn plume]

gauntlet got me fucked up giving +2 energy to marshal

tbh a lot of the nice stuff on his grid is too expensive anyways maybe this will be a good long term investment

[chrome halo]

as long as you don't unlock energy cap on Jessie and James grid, you are fine

[dawn plume]

260k sync orbs left…

[kind imp]

40k left
160k spent on extra energy

[chrome halo]

secretly hide my 10k orbs amount

[heavy sinew]

me staring at the 1800 orbs i have

[sturdy steeple]

its not needed but its nice just in case

seriously is easy

just reset for a single bertha tm mpr at the beginnning and thats all

[heavy sinew]

damn

guessing you're doing that too

[sturdy steeple]

i did it today

[heavy sinew]

ah

thought so

well gonna do that tomorrow then

thanks a bunch

[sturdy steeple]

was originally gonna use cynthia vs registeel but i switched around some comps cause i want my 251th run to be sslyra bc celebi's dex number is 251

[heavy sinew]

thats honestly so sweet

w onion

[errant moon]

how high are you aiming naomi

?

[sturdy steeple]

251 lol

[heavy sinew]

even better

[errant moon]

[bitter gate]

Why do I feel like I'll run out of shit when I'm at 150 lol

[heavy sinew]

same

[sturdy steeple]

me when planning

[bitter gate]

I did plann

For this LG

But like I feel like I'm running out of shit already

And Im not even at 200 pairs yet

[heavy sinew]

didnt plan hard enough

[sturdy steeple]

no its understandable

these guys can be demanding

these guys aka this rotation of LAs

[errant moon]

holy crap naomi you're 45 clears ahead of #2

[sturdy steeple]

unfortunately my progress will be stunted this weekend but i hope to finish next week 😎

[errant moon]

good luck!!

[rocky oasis]

bruno is so damn slow

[pearl beacon]

Is that easy? I got 4/5 cynthia
But was trying to slot bertha in some Regi clear but the Berta Hitmonchan feels so hard

[sturdy steeple]

mine is 5/5 and was talking to arzen who also had 5/5, with 4/5 i imagine the loss of some turns of sand would make it a bit harder

[heavy sinew]

catch up time

[pearl beacon]

Oky, giving a try

[sturdy steeple]

run defense crush if ya want on cynthia it makes bar 3 easier

[rocky oasis]

203 speed at 4*? bro are you trying to outslow a shuckle?

[pearl beacon]

Who that

[rocky oasis]

bruno

[pearl beacon]

Lmao

[heavy sinew]

yep, invert's video made it clear since sandstorm ended a lot of times when needed

[rocky oasis]

amped up aint helping his gauge much

[heavy sinew]

now if only i had cookies for def crush

[rocky oasis]

farm bv

[pearl beacon]

Yeah bruno is one of the slpwest, and +6 speed sucks on slow units
But the Leonora Bruno duo from Nao/Skip is really nice

[rocky oasis]

used leonora

[worthy horizon]

i got it in very few attempts so idk if it's hard or not

[heavy sinew]

3/5 len i assume

[sturdy steeple]

was 1/5 lenora

[rocky oasis]

2/5

[sturdy steeple]

if it was 3/5 i wouldnt use bruno with her

[heavy sinew]

finally some 1/5 lenora usage

she's been accumulating dust in my box

if only olympia showed up

[sturdy steeple]

she makes me so sad at 1/5

[heavy sinew]

feel that

only stalwart is a crime

[rocky oasis]

idk what to do w/ dana

[heavy sinew]

and 2 instances of mini pot is fine but eeeeeeh

[rocky oasis]

used all my super effective units w/o ever touching her lol

bc it feels like a waste

1/5 dana

[pearl beacon]

Some para nuker left for for torn?
