Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[karmic willow]

win

open with a flinch or two

[mild bison]

Do we have Support Scorbunny/SS Diantha on Regi?

[austere crown]

I believe so; check urself, cuz I gotta work on my own streak

[karmic willow]

can't believe

i went from

215 or 218 to just

213

some clears are just too cope for me

[glad fossil]

Do I have a chance at any rewards from gauntlet? I never tried it.

[austere crown]

If you're going for the bare minimum for all the unique rewards, yes.

[inner turret]

add it temporarily ig lol

like, it's the same as eng being a priority over jap

[austere crown]

SMOSNNOEONE HALP ME IN #1009564564821639379 PLOZ I NEED AAA

anyways

[inner turret]

tf is that

[austere crown]

@inner turret any idea on what filelr I could potentially choose for the Adaman solo? I don't want to get fucked by rng anymore; it's too much for me.

[inner turret]

I did it first try ngl

the only rng is what, random crits or miss bar 3 half ?

it's a really simple solo

[austere crown]

nat crits, para, syn. mpr, debuffs not procing

[karmic willow]

ryuki tanks

[austere crown]

and somehow focus blast deleting over half my HP

[karmic willow]

with

S H E L L

[inner turret]

ah adaman solo on registeel

mine is 1/5 so bulu it is lol

[austere crown]

idk whether it's worth putting him on the bull, or trying to salvage a steell clear via filler

problem is, idk what fuckign filler to add

[inland flint]

You're actually crazy

[karmic willow]

Told ya

Even til the end

This boss refuses to give me a crit

Worth the Onix

@sturdy steeple how do you do the Marlon and marnie clear?

[shy sinew]

what's the cheapest gauge support I can bring to support 1/5 ex ss lyra on registeel?

[karmic willow]

i run mgr2

[karmic willow]

Fast Track 2 - the lucky skill

[shy sinew]

yeah it wasn't enough

[karmic willow]

oof

[shy sinew]

wait I have skill gear for more damage duh

hello sycamore pin

[karmic willow]

how?

[modest oar]

You just need to reset for early fast track procs and don't get paralysed

Use first terrain early on

[sturdy steeple]

just get an mpr on marlon and manage gauge well, use marnie's b moves well

its honestly pretty simple

[tender horizon]

Idk how your elesa is gridded by mine is a wild charge hybrid grid

[karmic willow]

marnie syncs every time?

does her sync deal damage

[tender horizon]

Clay is just there to eat until bar 3 beginning

[karmic willow]

i need vigilance so bad

also

got grids for that clear?

[sturdy steeple]

deals more damage than marlons

[karmic willow]

touche

[tender horizon]

I can pick it wait

[true tartan]

guess I'll try to remove all the extra energy in the EX R runs until someone does lower than that

[tender horizon]

Clay's grid is just all the stat boosts like SpDef Def whatever

Other stuff dont matter

[kind imp]

^ and also have a pin with speed, grass pin>non speed skill gear and you can wait a bit after flinching before the double grassy glidinng so you farm some gauge (except in the first flinch after a bar transition where they sometimes recover instantly)

[inner turret]

Some people run MGR2 on Sprigatito
Some people run MGR2 on Courtney
Why not both

[karmic willow]

Gyattt

Dayummm

[feral plank]

any duo for bp surge?

[karmic willow]

yesss

marlon killed himself due to confusion

got flinched at the end

BUT IT DOESN"T MATTER ANYMOREEE

blocked the hurricane

[quaint tartan]

Spending 30 minutes on this
Switching the tank
Won first try

nyDawn has antitoxin in grid, it would be a shame not to use it

(2/5 nyDawn)

[inland flint]

Sometimes I forget Marnie's B Move has Piercing Blows

[kind imp]

for some reason they decided to give her b move extended range, piercing blows and also power reserves 2

in-game you have to scroll twice to read all of her b move's description

[tender horizon]

Typical anni unit characteristics

Look at Geeta's passives its like 6 passives plus a master passive

[loud shell]

So who hasn’t Selene soloed yet?

[shy sinew]

torn and uxie

[karmic willow]

This can work btw

I just need

Sentry Entry 2

And some mprs

Or mg2

i hate cookie rolls

[loud shell]

Sentry entry on who?

Elesa has toughen up

[karmic willow]

on the guy that mega evolves?

[loud shell]

Wouldn’t vigilance be easier?

Or even stoic?

[karmic willow]

dude dc2 only

sucks

vigilance can be handled with more tms

stoic is slower than sentry 2

YAYYYEEEEE

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (Marlon, NCMarnie duo on Torn)

• nao OG

[karmic willow]

GOT'EM

no mg2 but

STILL WON

[austere crown]

@karmic willow u got any idea on how to allieviate rng for Adaman solo on Steel, or u think it is more worthwhile to keep at it?

[karmic willow]

just

one flincher

that's it

that's all it takes

i went ss brock to save my soul

197 speed

jesus

[austere crown]

Did it feel too easy? If so, I could opt for a lower % unit

[karmic willow]

still tough as balls

needed one tm mpr

but

no synthesis mpr needed

[karmic willow]

1st half bar 3 is most dangerous because of constant earthquake

i had like

4 tm mprs on noland to live that

with sentry entry 2 tho

not that much

But nah fuck it we ball

[austere crown]

Any idea on where to use 1/5 Jacq? Waitaminute I should probably candy huh

[feral plank]

any option for a sophocles duo? no tl cynthia

[feral plank]

you should

[austere crown]

Any other Crit + sustain unit

[feral plank]

what could i do with 2/5 ss blue?

[austere crown]

lol you got your answer to your own question xd

[feral plank]

isnt it a bit overkill?

nah i'll do it

[austere crown]

…. How? 🗿

Overlapping speed buffs? Sorry, but unless you found another unit(s) that fits, he will probably be your best bet

[feral plank]

easy

blue is bulky as hell

although sophocles wasnt cooperative with the flinches

[quaint tartan]

@sturdy steeple sorry for the ping, I was just wondering if you had a list of not used unit for this lg, trying to make a couple of solo less tedious Tia

[sturdy steeple]

everyone im not using

[stuck mantle]

Most funny is cobalion did i both selene only😂 didnt now befor check it🤣🤣

[stray sandal]

Anyone does karen/Victor clear on bulu? I don't get how to do 3rd bar

Naomi. I got that clear from you. Please can you tell me what you are doing on bar 3?

[stuck mantle]

Need protect from wood hamer haze half bar

[sturdy steeple]

haze the atk buffs and kill it with karens sync

[karmic willow]

I have like

The MOST

[stray sandal]

What about max move

When are you using

[karmic willow]

DELAYED WOOD HAMMER

Ever

Like

[stray sandal]

Or you just max guard

[sturdy steeple]

you can probably save the max move to do damage vs bar 3

[karmic willow]

My god

I was flying

I made like

FIVE MOVES

[sturdy steeple]

i forgot how i did it

[karmic willow]

It still didn't attack

[stray sandal]

So I did do dmg bar 3. But Karen dies to facade

[sturdy steeple]

but it wasnt complicated

[karmic willow]

Damn you bulu

[kind imp]

My second sync went to victor

[sturdy steeple]

then use it for max guard if your victor isnt living

[kind imp]

For the speed

[stray sandal]

OK let me try again

[kind imp]

And apply confusion/flinch for dirty fighting 5

[pliant glen]

Yay I don't have to do this thanks Rafa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96eZ4zrHpWI

[karmic willow]

I swear

It is

PROGRAMMED

To land it

DAMN YOU BULU

[pliant glen]

[tender horizon]

Yalls

Pls share team recommendations for 1/5 holiday viola ex

[modest oar]

Skill issue

[pliant glen]

Lusamine

Actually scratch that, any team with a 50%< Paralysis user. The debuffs are good

Until it starts debuffing Torn's evasion but ehh pray for the accuracy drops

[karmic willow]

DIEEEEEE

oh yeah

did not flew over the wood hammer

brendan solo bulu

[quaint tartan]

Did not wanna ex cheren to make it useful so I just broke him tm MPR lol

[karmic willow]

man

if only i had

like

2 more energy on V.Kris

i could literally ditch lithe for twave mgr

[austere crown]

Real life location pls

[tiny hedge]

you know, i just realized....

[strange ivy]

I GOT FLINCHED ON THE LAST BAR OF STEEL NOOOOOOO

[tiny hedge]

all three of these battles have mono-weakness

[feral plank]

i got rafa'd twice in a run where i got 3 sanstorm mprs with ingo

kukui and ingo duo on regi , double rafa D:

[karmic willow]

yikes

[karmic willow]

which is good

[strange ivy]

double flinch hmmm

it’s honestly a bit of a pain in the ass to swap between shuriken and brutal swing

[feral plank]

Solved

Around 5 potion mprs and 1 sand mprs( got paralyzed so it didnt Matter)

And lot offlinches

Ww3 kukui too

[karmic willow]

FUUUU

SYNC MOVE DID NOT CRIT

[feral plank]

run?

[karmic willow]

torn

used v.kris and porygon

nuke failed to crit again

doesn't matter

[feral plank]

i could give a candy to vkris and make her 2/5 is it worth it?

[karmic willow]

yes

you WILL need 2/5 to do this

and well

i plan to 3/5 her at some point even

i like kris a lot and

this pair is

INSANE

[keen flint]

42 places between 99 and 100, I guess a lot are calling it quits after the title haha

[karmic willow]

good

[tiny hedge]

any good duos for Darach?

[karmic willow]

i am going to attempt flint

reasoning being

flint dodges

[tiny hedge]

.....how do you heal darach tho?

[karmic willow]

you nuke to skip the half bar

[karmic willow]

TM

[tiny hedge]

or do you just sync?

my DPS is doing way too much recoil even with Standfast 12

[karmic willow]

spam feather dance

that's literally ỉt

[vital ibex]

Who's a good partner for 1/5 v kris

[modest oar]

1/5 SS Hau maybe?

[heavy sinew]

Don't have him

Also gonna ask the same rhing

[karmic willow]

Wrong LS

Does not matter in the slightest

Lodge May let's go

pretty sure

it's a duo

but

i would like to use Lodge May somewhere for shits and giggles

not like i'd have somewhere else

[tiny hedge]

Oh god.

[austere crown]

No cap?

[tiny hedge]

5 MP refreshes on potion

Also gio is exed

[austere crown]

Move levels?

[karmic willow]

all 1/5 minus may

no ex no nothing

[quaint tartan]

I’m using his rain against him

I know clair and Brendan can solo

They can, I can’t

[karmic willow]

me when someone mentions Nate solo

[rocky oasis]

dumb shit that somehow worked

Valerie / EX BP Surge

it worked but it was still dumb

[tight rivet]

daily reminder that bugscy has more defense than bp morty and clemont its literally just that he has no defense buffs

[austere crown]

stoic 2:

[tight rivet]

reliable*

[austere crown]

and what channel are we on? exactly.

[tight rivet]

well im just saying

[tight rivet]

people complain about his bulk but his base stats are actually better than the other budget supports we have

[karmic willow]

I coulda sworn

This was much harder

[tight rivet]

its literally only because he doesnt have defensive buffing

[austere crown]

Stealing14 (Roxanne EX, EBlue, Tech Alakazam on RSteel)

• Grid and Info below.

[karmic willow]

First try baby

[tight rivet]

same deal with nc calem really

[karmic willow]

Roxanne ex kekw

[tight rivet]

has good stats but no reliable defensive buffing so he feels frail

[karmic willow]

The entire game

Uhhhh

Ancient power only proc'd once

still

gotta love overwhelm

-6 attack makes me more confident in life

GRIDS https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=004400047600&s0=5&l0=140&r0=3&p0=0&a0=0&t0=11111&g0=AAECAwQFExYXGRobHiAjJA&v1=002100005900&s1=5&l1=140&r1=5&p1=0&a1=18040502&t1=11111&g1=AAECAwQFBgkMDQ4QERQXGi4v&v2=0

just make sure to

flinch the 2nd bar crit eq

and block the 3rd bar one for good measure

[austere crown]

Meganium grid expansion when

[karmic willow]

25th this month

[austere crown]

wait no shot I just guessed the expansion without knowing

[quaint tartan]

5/5

You need the atk debuff bc you need cheren to survive and eat the wood hammer

[austere crown]

god fucking dammit oh my god

wtf do I do with 1/5?!?!?

[quaint tartan]

Sslys is in a weird spot where he’s so good in cs/hse and so bad in lg when no 5/5

I’m praying for SSElesa/Phoebe expansion, they need it

[austere crown]

At least give Rotom Sync Burst 1 pls

[tight rivet]

it is lyra but it sucks

well

ok she is the first accessible smun unit

but like

team swift reaction is so bad

[austere crown]

oh they actually went and gave her a full offensive kit

why the fuck does she get BOGO on TM

[tight rivet]

no they didnt

[austere crown]

what is she, budget Ingo?

[tight rivet]

light screen

anyway i tried cooking

[karmic willow]

I needed ONE MORE

[austere crown]

I would just avoid TSR9; it's so bad for her

[tight rivet]

idk what else to take with 3 energy lol

my ocd wants to use it

[karmic willow]

yeah imma just

cut down on

one more trio

just to make sure i win

212

disappointing

i can't do nate solo so

it is what it is

[austere crown]

Just use it on EBall; it's better to pick that up over ruining your quadq

[strange ivy]

Aggravation 1 is a SCAM

[tight rivet]

me when 1 energy

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[true tartan]

https://youtu.be/sWZJ-mJ6jDw

alright

nothing else to do

moving to reduce Cobalion now

[tight rivet]

can she do registeel

or does she explode

[austere crown]

2 stat nodes:

[austere crown]

iirc, she can do every LA except piss pixie and the flying nimbus

[heavy sinew]

I was just asking if this can be done

Now I know

[tight rivet]

bruh not uxie being called the piss pixie

is there a reason why she cant do uxie

[kind imp]

look at the video just posted

[tight rivet]

then who is piss pixie supposed to be

lol

cresselia?

but that doesn’t make sense

[kind imp]

i think he didn't see stdk posting the video

[tight rivet]

im honestly surprised she got moltres

[kind imp]

now she only didn't do the genie

[austere crown]

what? all pixies are conquered?

oml why is every pair becoming top tier LG units

[heavy sinew]

SHE DID MOLTRES??

need her

[tight rivet]

yeah thats astonishing

[heavy sinew]

fire weak btw

[tight rivet]

because thats the only weakness scizor can have

[tight rivet]

lol

[true tartan]

the latest update of the solo

[tight rivet]

5/5 exr on coba seems harsh

[true tartan]

did moltres... without extra energy and Steel Gear

[true tartan]

I'll lower it lol

[tight rivet]

if she had skill gear do you think she could drop exr

or is it necessary

[true tartan]

oh yeah

I think she can do it without EX R

3/5 EX 150 + Skill Gear has a chance

but use the grid I used

[tight rivet]

i dont have her im just asking lol

[pliant glen]

I did Latias at 3/5 EX No R I was going to do more but I can't log back in after crashing thanks Cobalion

[true tartan]

do you think Coba is possible?

if EX R could get Uxie, I think you have a chance without R

[pliant glen]

Yes but very annoying and long. Like 3 Steel Wish MPRs

I'm talking about Cobalion holy she did Uxie?

[kind imp]

here

[true tartan]

I did it lol

140 EX R vs 150 EX hmmm

28/18 more stats in 140 EX R for HP and Attack

but you have higher defenses

so, yeah, with more damage output in skill gear

she could solo Uxie without R

and, again, you can try Moltres

[pliant glen]

Fields and Sprint get huge stats from 140 to 150 like

[true tartan]

3/5 EX should be enough with very offensive skill gear

[pliant glen]

My gears are like Interference Sync 3% and Steel Moves 3%

And Ice P-Move DR 4%

[true tartan]

you should be able to reduce Moltres and Uxie easily haha

tbh, all can be done at 3/5 EX

[pliant glen]

I'm going to when the game let's me back in

I still have Rally to do I gotta do this tonight

[true tartan]

like EX R 140 is very similar to 150 EX

it has some tradeoffs, but yep, really exchangable between those 2

[strange ivy]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[austere crown]

what's the strat? I might steal this.

[pliant glen]

Flinch chain i guess

[austere crown]

...nvm I already have a duo planned with him xD

[strange ivy]

DC 2 Grims flinch chain, Rising Tide SS Hilda

[austere crown]

jesus christ

[karmic willow]

man

[twin aurora]

How wasteful is throwing Sycamore into Bulu solo?

[karmic willow]

seeing this

makes me feel happy

about getting 5/5 Hilda

[karmic willow]

can duo with dragonite sup against torn

[twin aurora]

Ok, looks much better, thanks

[austere crown]

or any paralyzer, like tech pinsir

ajsd;giohlsfdjkjf why no one active in #1009564564821639379

[pliant glen]

My phone really wanted to update before it let me play more

[austere crown]

@pliant glen since you're free from the LG curse for a while.....
PLS HALP

[pliant glen]

Uhh what do you need?

[austere crown]

actually, while you're here, may as well send this ~~also to keep things ontopic ~~

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I172alRZ9UPzHo-Ad-4NWcwT8MrqsI6FYvc4N4f3r-w/edit?usp=sharing

[pliant glen]

I don't have access

[austere crown]

ok holdup

also #1009564564821639379 struggling in here too

the LG sheet link should work now

If you have access to the grids for the teams that's gears are NOT hyperlinked (missing), could you guys ping me?

moreso for thet teams that are near the top (AKA teams that' I'm willing to run/try)

[pliant glen]

You want me to suggest leftovers? I don't have time for this I'm going to be busy tomorrow

[austere crown]

nononnono I wouldn't dare make someone do that ~~at least not for the entire sheet ~~

I was just wondering if othere people knew info about some of the budget teams so I don't have to go mass pinging, which I'll be doing soon.

~~or ig people can choose to only steal from my sheet too; that's fine ~~

[errant plume]

Hi @sterile frost

[feral plank]

did i just see that selene got uxie too?

[heavy sinew]

[feral plank]

i wish the delete'd torn

[heavy sinew]

crazy

i havent even reached 60 im struggling here

[feral plank]

i'm at 71 and struggling in comps not making the runs

[errant plume]

You can yoink my teams yes

[heavy sinew]

pog

no doc?

[errant plume]

Even tho it's mostly japanese clears

Not online, I use Excel sorry

[pliant glen]

Sharing is caring

[austere crown]

you're struggling at 60? haahhaa hwo funny taht you were somewhat sane for the past 50

[heavy sinew]

excel woah

[austere crown]

oops wrong reply

[strange ivy]

I need a really easy registeel clear

[austere crown]

same vibe tho

[strange ivy]

Im still stuck at 20

[austere crown]

you're struggling at 60? haahhaa hwo funny taht you were somewhat sane for the past 50

[pliant glen]

SC Selene

[austere crown]

wtf copy+pasting ain't working

[heavy sinew]

mfw midterms

[pliant glen]

Crtl + C and Crtl + V

[tight rivet]

how much longer for gauntlet

10 days?

[strange ivy]

I mean I'm still doing duos rn

[pliant glen]

9

Ends on the 24th

So like barely over a week

Rocking 1 win btw

[strange ivy]

i still need to find a good nc serena partner

[tiny hedge]

Ok, hear me out.... Aura Sphere Siebold DPS

[austere crown]

my sheet is right here y'know

[pliant glen]

Actually goated in sleep-chains

[austere crown]

I remember documenting some frog duos for nimbus

[pliant glen]

His nuke is kinda meh off-type but Aura Sphere does good for chip damage

[tight rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/institutionalized-oomfie-soywife-gif-21919648

and yes that is the specialist dance

[feral plank]

more than half of it are solos and not so easy ones, but i'm still there , trying to get good team comps

[modest oar]

https://youtu.be/Pdbg0rwJiVE?si=C5xneAHG9ZJf0XdR

Brawly solos Bulu now too

[tiny hedge]

So..... how insane am i?

[austere crown]

honestly, not so much considering it's Darkrai.

[tiny hedge]

ok fair

[tight rivet]

isnt ss cyrus able to solo

[heavy sinew]

2/5

[modest oar]

I think it's fine

[tight rivet]

or is that only with 3/5

[tiny hedge]

2/5

[tight rivet]

oh

[modest oar]

2/5 EX

[heavy sinew]

cause he gets fast track 4

[tight rivet]

so you just dont wanna give him the bone(s)

[modest oar]

The nuke is important

[tiny hedge]

I have no need to 2/5 him

[tight rivet]

do you really need quaxly tho

isnt tech better with growl here too

[tiny hedge]

Quaxly has X speed all + Rain dance

i'm sleep stalling anyways

plus SS Cyrus debuffs overtime

[austere crown]

I think you could get away with a tech battery instead, considering Aura Sphere's MGR9

[tiny hedge]

ok, so blastoise then

[austere crown]

also iirc, both DPS pairs are self suff

holdup does it have speed

well it doesn't matter if you have enough gauge

perhaps you can spec MGR2

[tiny hedge]

actually wait, already used Blastoise

Tech horsea then

[tight rivet]

thats a thing??

[austere crown]

do you not have the other role(s)?

[vale garden]

This was so painful.
I only leeched speed twice, and both were in bar 3 where he just took them back

[tiny hedge]

tech horsea literally just buffs its own speed

It's more than enough

[vale garden]

Bulu gets solos

[austere crown]

ik it is, but support is a far better version if you have it

[vale garden]

Rest I am duoing

Speaking of duo

Solgaleo vs Torn

Should I take registeel or is 8t too expensive?

[worthy horizon]

registeel is standard yea

[austere crown]

literally everyone uses it

[vale garden]

Solgaleo/MCSteel yeah?

Noice noice

[worthy horizon]

if you downgrade it you'd be doing better than most people

[vale garden]

What's the downgrade

[worthy horizon]

idk

[vale garden]

I imagine Skyla is in same position

[worthy horizon]

i went with registeel

[vale garden]

Hmmm
Might just go for regi

[heavy sinew]

ye same

[tiny hedge]

Oh right.... i forgot....

Steel becomes immune to sleep bar 3

[austere crown]

I assumed you knew since you opted to bring a rain unit

[tiny hedge]

I mean, it is what it is.

already beat it

[pliant glen]

[vale garden]

Bruh

[heavy sinew]

just metal claw

[vale garden]

That's just sad

I would yeet my phone

[heavy sinew]

i shouldn't have used sc shauna on regi

torn btw

[iron laurel]

is there a way to reset a single battle without resetting the entire arena? I made a mistake and let a failure go through and can't retry the fight with those units :(

I'm quite late into my streak

[pliant glen]

You can't, sorry that happened

[worthy horizon]

nope

[iron laurel]

nooooo

man I'll have to start over tomorrow

that blows

[pliant glen]

Most of have done that before don't worry

[worthy horizon]

yep

[austere crown]

what progress do you have?

[pliant glen]

Hit the RIGHT hand button to try btw

[iron laurel]

thank you for the answer regardless

[pliant glen]

LEFT hand button consumes thy Sync Pair

[iron laurel]

31 which is my best so far. nothing crazy but meaningful to me

[tight rivet]

does that mean its reset heavy

why tho

[sterile frost]

Wtf ratio 😰

[heavy sinew]

potions

[dull zealot]

Dang, SC Steven + Elesa duo vs. Tornadus doesn't seem to be effective at all. Tornadus's 20% Self-Cleanse >>> Elesa's 30% paralysis rate

[modest oar]

Would be nice if you upload it once you're done. I would love to see the grids to some of your clears

[heavy sinew]

30?

are you using HE from grid?

[dull zealot]

The clear strat doesn't use HE apparently.

[pliant glen]

Moltres done

[true tartan]

[tiny hedge]

Alright, what's a good team for Mallow on Bulu?

[pliant glen]

Just have to do Azelf then I can EX R my Selene before rally ends

[true tartan]

you did Coba?

and Cress too?

[pliant glen]

No

Cress yes

[inner turret]

sprig courtney is so reliable when both have mgr2
i love it

[dull zealot]

Oh, I didn't grid correctly.

[true tartan]

so Coba and Uxie pending for 3/5 EX ❓

[modest oar]

I want her so badly now but I really can't whale for her (yet)

[heavy sinew]

same

but i also want jacq

pain

[pliant glen]

Yes

[modest oar]

I can't whale because of Jacq. Was originally saving for her

[pliant glen]

And Azlef but I'm starting now

[heavy sinew]

azlef

[austere crown]

azlef

[tight rivet]

i mean why would you do that to yourself

[heavy sinew]

why not

[pliant glen]

Azlef recorded

Ugh do I want to try Uxie and Cobalion...

Okay Uxie does not look thaaat bad I could try it for a bit

[heavy sinew]

have fun

[rocky oasis]

cheap bulu team?

[worthy horizon]

im stealing

[heavy sinew]

i'd take that

[rocky oasis]

grass guard on roark

[heavy sinew]

goat tank

[rocky oasis]

quadqueue brave bird to finish bar 1 before bulu syncs

[pliant glen]

First Aid 4 + Endurance + Healthy Healing gaming lmao

[rocky oasis]

and bar 3 to avoid banhammer

[pliant glen]

Also the funny death delay allowing you to get an extra attack from your main striker

[rocky oasis]

im uploading it atm

but my wifi is still ass

[cedar pawn]

The Auto Flag rises another level.

[tiny hedge]

the phone snaping tendencies are begging again

if it isn't confusing stopping wood hammer, it's MP refreshes ruining a run before it even starts

[errant moon]

Imma do this, I've been struggling so much finding a (non-eggmon crying) team for her

[tiny hedge]

GOT IT

thank you confusion stopping wood hammer

[heavy sinew]

what are you doing

[tiny hedge]

registeel

[fair fox]

trying to figure out where your pokemon went

[tiny hedge]

what Power whip does sometimes lmao

[strange ivy]

ok i need to actually make some more progress so i’m doing this team

[pliant glen]

Lost a run to two Iron Tail hits after dodging Power-Up punch man

Okay I just looked at the Cobalion one I'm not doing that bruh

Uxie only needs 2 Steel Wish MP the Cobalion one needs like 4

[vale garden]

Which sheet is this

[heavy sinew]

akr0's

[tiny hedge]

flinch saved me.... bless lisia altaria

[tight rivet]

he cant solo?

[tiny hedge]

my tainer in Pasio, it's 1/5

[tight rivet]

well i wouldnt know just by looking at that

[tiny hedge]

Also, Ew. no ty.

[vale garden]

Ty

[tight rivet]

i feel like that could be dropped

[tiny hedge]

it's a grid thing

[strange ivy]

i hate you registeel

[tight rivet]

yikes

[errant moon]

Mood

He's really being a pain for me atm

[modest oar]

Why not on Tornadus?

[tight rivet]

its not possible to drop any of that?

[tiny hedge]

???

[tight rivet]

he has piercing blows

[modest oar]

Leon has piercing blows

[strange ivy]

I think I'm on hour 7 rn of trying to get past 20 clears

[tiny hedge]

OH GOD DAMN IT

[tight rivet]

isnt torn significantly easier to solo than registeel anyway

what was he weak to again i cant ever remember

[modest oar]

Dark

And he doesn't solo

Yet

[tiny hedge]

Welp, great.

[tight rivet]

i thought he would be able to

[tiny hedge]

Wasted a piercing blows unit

Cool

Real cool

[tight rivet]

cuz piercing blows and speed debuffs to weaken bar 3

[tiny hedge]

Thanks

[modest oar]

I think the solo is possible but it's going to be awful

[strange ivy]

HE PARAFLINCHED ME

FUCK OFF

AAAAAAAAA

[errant moon]

Speaking of PB units, who are y'all pairing with MC Solga on Torn? I tried Registeel and I learned the hard way Solga is weak to Ground

[tight rivet]

energy expansion and 5/5?

[errant moon]

[tight rivet]

and skill gear i bet

[modest oar]

Maybe? You'd need to reset for two hurricane misses and either sync or max move to avoid rain dance

Then survive the rest

[tight rivet]

🤮

fuck hurricane misses

[modest oar]

Support EXR would make it so much easier

[tight rivet]

i had to do that with sst and it was awful lol

[tight rivet]

for the defenses or the actual effect

[modest oar]

SST? You could just use Volt Tackle

[worthy horizon]

solgaleo and mc registeel vs torn is standard

[tight rivet]

if he lands hurricane twice he queues rain dance

[tiny hedge]

Man, i'm actually salty that i wasted a piercing blows unit

[tight rivet]

and 1/5 sst will explode after that

[tiny hedge]

I felt that was a good run too

[errant moon]

I unfortunately do not have MCsteel

I could grab it but ehhhhh

[modest oar]

Yeah but Red is so strong he just destroys Tornadus before it happens

[tight rivet]

not in my case lol

[modest oar]

Is yours non ex?

[tight rivet]

i had to use skill gear and i still needed a miss

[tight rivet]

he is

[modest oar]

EXR?

[tight rivet]

idk maybe its skill issue

yes

when do you use dynamax btw

on bar 3?

[modest oar]

Yes

Oh wait for SST Red?

[tight rivet]

ok thats what i thought

yes

[modest oar]

It really doesn't matter when

But i did on Bar 3 I think

[tight rivet]

yeah i think i did sync max move to skip bar 2

cuz i hate it lol

[tiny hedge]

Overkill?

[errant moon]

I'd use Penny on Steel

Spdef debuffs

[tiny hedge]

Oh true...

[strange ivy]

FUCK YOU REGISTEEEEEELLLL HAHAHAHAHAHA

[errant moon]

(I did her and Diantha on Steel)

[modest oar]

His is 1/5 though

[strange ivy]

IM FINALLY AT 21

[tight rivet]

isnt penny steel weak

[errant moon]

Mind games 9 is innate though

[modest oar]

Iron Head is kinda cringe though

[tight rivet]

i think the problem is survivability

[errant moon]

Mhmm

[tight rivet]

you could leech the defense buffs

[modest oar]

Maybe they actually can I guess

[errant moon]

I didn't really struggle with that but mine is admittedly 3/5

[tight rivet]

but those will get lowered at half bars

[modest oar]

She steals buffs too

[errant moon]

Yeah she steals Steels defence

Which helps a ton

[modest oar]

I think the duo won't cut it for Registeel though

I would love to be proven wrong though

[errant moon]

Yeah you'd need more fire-power than Katherine imo

[modest oar]

Maybe 1/5 Penny and 3/5 NY Lisia works

She has defense crushes

[errant moon]

Katherine's attack debuffs could be handy though

[cedar pawn]

I guess I should post it here too

[errant moon]

Ty for reminding me I still need to find somewhere for my NY Lisia

[modest oar]

I didn't use her yet either. She isn't great in this mode

[errant moon]

(Only 1/5 sadly)

[modest oar]

1/5 NY Lisia sucks so much

[errant moon]

Yeah she's Not Great

[modest oar]

She's like SS Red actually

[errant moon]

Munching on that gauge

[modest oar]

Though admittedly better

[errant moon]

Maybe on Bulu idek

[tight rivet]

gauge annihilator with 0 utility?

[modest oar]

Like both are fine at 3/5 but awful in base

[errant moon]

My 4bar Big Damage strikers are struggling so hard

1/5 SS Lana girl what do I do with you

[modest oar]

Make her 3/5

[errant moon]

😭

[modest oar]

Tapus scream 3/5 me please

[errant moon]

True....I also need to give Mina the same treatment

[modest oar]

SS Lana is super fun at 3/5

I did it and I don't look back

[errant moon]

[modest oar]

Should do it to Hau though

[errant moon]

Better than 3/5 NY Lisia?

[modest oar]

Not that it's better, but NY Lisia is at least somewhat useful at 3/5

1/5 Lana is far better than 1/5 Lisia

[errant moon]

Yeah, that's the struggle

[kind imp]

Hmm

I have her 2/5

[errant moon]

I'm also tempted towards Lisia due to the upcoming HSE

[kind imp]

But I do have spare strike candies

[errant moon]

But that's another story

[tight rivet]

is ss red that bad at 1/5

[modest oar]

Yes

I had SS Red 1/5 for quite some time. Event Blue outclassed him

[tight rivet]

i love 10% burns

[tight rivet]

yikes

[modest oar]

He struggles in stadium so much. And I hate his nuke needing attack buffs

1/5 Red struggles

3/5 clears pretty well

[kind imp]

? Haymaker is 2/5

[tight rivet]

well the funny thing is that ss red’s best team doesnt even run haymaker

[modest oar]

Yeah, but still, SS Red is awful in base, better in 2/5 bc Haymaker, and better at 3/5 due to sun multipliers

4/5 makes the duo with him and SS Morty not hellish

[tight rivet]

explain

[kind imp]

Flare blitz standfast 9

[modest oar]

Standfast 9 makes recoil non issue

[kind imp]

So you can use a physical move in bar 2

[modest oar]

Exactly

[tight rivet]

interesting

[pliant glen]

I'm going through it tonight

[tight rivet]

guessing any other sun setter wouldnt work

[modest oar]

Yeah. SS Morty can buff defenses, crits, heal both party members and has potions too

He's basically immortal under sun

[errant moon]

Is that at 1 or 2/5?

[tiny hedge]

lol lana solo on bulu is ez

just add dc2. ez

[errant moon]

He's another I've been meaning to candy

[tight rivet]

well ss acerola could duo with lodge sycamore

[modest oar]

I think 2/5 works

[tight rivet]

and it didnt look completely terrible

so maybe ss red wouldnt be too horrid either

[kind imp]

I remember him duoing moltres

[errant moon]

Yeah I keep hearing 2/5 is great

[tight rivet]

it was silver

[errant moon]

this damn LG is draining tf out of all my resources

[tight rivet]

but silver and ss red are practically the same unit so tomato tomahto really

[modest oar]

Using SS Acerola is a waste with Red though. And probably won't work because Sycamore heals in terrain and Red debuffs his sp. def

[tight rivet]

would air cutter really hit him that hard

[errant moon]

Sycamore can duo with BP Olivia iirc

[modest oar]

And multiple syncs

[errant moon]

(I was bougie and gave him SC Jasmine)

[tight rivet]

on tornadus?

sounds even worse

[modest oar]

Acerola has no potions

[errant moon]

Oh no Bulu

[tight rivet]

oh well bulu he basically cant die

cuz he gets 2 healing procs

but the ss ace duo on torn was crazy

literally just brute forces bar 3

[errant moon]

Oh I ain't doing that

Happy for you though, etc

[tight rivet]

i already used ss ace to solo bulu so rip

[modest oar]

Some brute force duos aren't that bad

[tiny hedge]

What team can i use for 1/5 Archie?

[tight rivet]

uh

die

[errant moon]

Delete him

[modest oar]

1/5 Archie is so bad for this gauntlet

[errant moon]

Hope that helps!

[tight rivet]

hes unironically so shit for gauntlet

[errant moon]

In all seriousness just bench him

[tight rivet]

3/5 makes him usable on torn

but like

[errant moon]

3/5 Archie was absolute ass on Torn

[tight rivet]

you do not want to candy him

[modest oar]

Archie is good for Entei and Moltres

[tiny hedge]

ok, but what if i add him with Ball guy (i really don't feel like soloing with him)

[modest oar]

That's it pretty much

[tight rivet]

oh my

god

[kind imp]

Prob his best thing is that he extends rain

[tight rivet]

he doesnt even get hostile environment

its so bad

[kind imp]

I also have him 1/5

[tight rivet]

jesus christ give this man a grid expansion

[modest oar]

3/5 EX? Ball Guy is gonna suffer through hurricanes

[errant moon]

The fun part with Archie on Torn is he immediately makes those Hurricanes rip your tank apart ❤️

[tiny hedge]

3/5 EX

[errant moon]

Thanks for the rain bestie really helpful here

[tight rivet]

he also has no hostile environment

[modest oar]

Pray for quick paralysis procs

[tight rivet]

you might as well use strike raichu

[errant moon]

Fr

[tiny hedge]

hmmmm should I just use archie for literally anyone else?

[modest oar]

Strike Raichu might be better lmao

[tight rivet]

im

actually

so

fucking confused

by his grid

[modest oar]

Grass weak so no Bulu, does nothing to Regi

[tight rivet]

3/5 mgr3???

on thunder??

are you fucking for real

[errant moon]

[worthy horizon]

you're either putting it on bulu or you have an extremely strong tank for tornadus

[tight rivet]

WHY ARE THERE TWO

THE MORE I LOOK THE WORSE IT GETS

HEALTHY POWER UP 1

[worthy horizon]

and yet they refused to give him grid expansion on rerun

[errant moon]

Those of y'all who duo'd him with L Adaman....I salute you

[tight rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[errant moon]

I malded so hard I added a para eggmon to get it over with

[worthy horizon]

and gave him basically the worst possible ex role at the same time

[tight rivet]

THAT IS A FUCKING 3/5 TILE

ITS SO BAD

[tiny hedge]

ok, is 91/189 ratio decent?

[tight rivet]

yes

[tiny hedge]

win/Pairs used ratio

[modest oar]

Yeah it's good

[tiny hedge]

i'm starting to feel concerned on Tornadus teams now

like, Imma have to start brute forcing them

i still have like 20 paralyzers.... but they're % chance

[errant moon]

60% and up is fine imo

Idk if you've used him but Norman has 90% iirc

[tiny hedge]

I still have him,

I am aware how goated norman is on tornadus

[errant moon]

Mhmm I still need to use him myself

Can't work out a team though

[worthy horizon]

skippingmud used tl gladion i think which i have planned

[strange ivy]

I used him with SS Roxie since her paralysis isn't guaranteed, but I think someone already told me she's overkill 💀

[tiny hedge]

at the pace i'm going, I might get to 150 wins.

which might be top 100 worthy

[tight rivet]

i was gonna say use ss roxie on registeel

but that just sounds incredibly stupid

[tiny hedge]

i used SS roxie on Torn

[tight rivet]

yeah cuz

she has discharge

lol

[strange ivy]

overdrive

not discharge

[tiny hedge]

she doesn't have anything to paralyze

except Max move

[strange ivy]

overdrive can't paralyze, so she needs a partner

[tiny hedge]

but like.... save that max move to destroy Bar 2

[errant moon]

Very sad I need to put a paralyser with Wiola

[tight rivet]

cringe i forgot

[errant moon]

One single time ain't it

[tight rivet]

overdrive is just worse discharge in the context of gauntlet

[errant moon]

Oh wait the sync

....yeah nah it still won't work

[tight rivet]

thats your damage tho

[tiny hedge]

I was lowkey trying to think if Wiola/SC Emmet was viable....

[errant moon]

Exactly

[tight rivet]

you mean to tell me ur gonna trap your way through bar 1 lol?

[errant moon]

Struggle Bug DPS

[strange ivy]

nc marn on tornadus isn't a bad idea right?

[robust nymph]

🗣️

[strange ivy]

piercing blows b-move

[tight rivet]

ih god she doesnt even have infestation

its struggle bug lmfao

[errant moon]

Yup

[robust nymph]

almost every pblows should go to torn imo

fuck the genie

[strange ivy]

this is definitely a legendary gauntlet :)

[robust nymph]

damn it link slow down

[strange ivy]

~~they should've given us last gauntlet now ~~

[errant moon]

I feel like half my damn roster has Vigi now

RIP my cookies

[strange ivy]

you have cookies?

[tiny hedge]

what i'm trying to do is get 50 wins a week

currently at win 91. will continue more tomorrow

[rocky oasis]

anyone remember how the bertha / hitmontop duo went

the damn body slams get me every time

[pearl beacon]

Badly, it's doable with good luck but painful

Bertha is exposed to too many para early on

The one time I almost got it para procd on sandstorm

And gave up that

[heavy sinew]

not doin that

[errant moon]

Could you add another unit to make it less painful? My Bertha is 5/5 EX I'd love to use her to rid me of another Steel clear

[pearl beacon]

Sure a trio shpuld be good enough

[worthy horizon]

lol skyla solo first try

4 or 5 potion mprs

[heavy sinew]

not doing that

[worthy horizon]

good passive stack on skill gears

[heavy sinew]

too useful

[worthy horizon]

her sync hits surprisingly hard

[pearl beacon]

Innate multiplier 📈

[kind imp]

innate inertia

[heavy sinew]

was just gonna say that

[worthy horizon]

forgot about that

[heavy sinew]

but yea innate inertia + fanfare = damage stonks

[worthy horizon]

fr

[heavy sinew]

i wonder if akr0's and nao's 3/5 alt leon clear is doable 2/5

no brawn sync for easy nuke

[robust nymph]

fr man

what the hell

the amount of vigi i've had to give for torn

[winter creek]

Vigilance be crazy though.

[heavy sinew]

wait it is

[winter creek]

And we don't go a Critical Shield extender.

[heavy sinew]

mud coming in clutch

[errant moon]

At least now it's done and never has to be done again

Next LG will be easier

(Nek minut - 🐦 )

[kind imp]

last lg i think i gave like 20 pairs unbending/stalwart

[robust nymph]

last LG i wasn't this brave because we didn't have LS presets yet

[kind imp]

i should have like 15 guass guards

[sour isle]

haha... Sycamore solo... turned into a Sycamore Duo... then turned into a Sycamore - SS Red - an eggmon

[heavy sinew]

i gave a ton of pairs flameproof last time moltres was in gauntlet

[sour isle]

/me cackle

[kind imp]

and some flameproof and escape artist from moltres/entei

[sour isle]

oh /me doesnt work anymore. sadlife.

[robust nymph]

idk, i have 3 different lucky skills on SSilver for 3 different solos and I might have to change one of them again

[fading anvil]

Darn, I don't know how I did this before but I had Elio/Primarina, Tech Aerodactyl, and Korrina/Lucario for Registeel. But they cannot survive a sync.

[young forge]

I hate the SS Cyrus solo

[chrome halo]

that means you should always put Regi to sleep

[worthy horizon]

only thing i can think of is you forgot gear

[errant moon]

Sigh I need to push myself to do this but god

[robust nymph]

you sleepchain

[errant moon]

[fading anvil]

Oh yeah. So I won't regret using him here than elsewhere?

[chrome halo]

Elio and Korrina can duo, or at least replace Aerodactyl

Tech Aerodactyl can go to another team

[worthy horizon]

yea i managed the duo without any issues i can recall

[fading anvil]

How else do you get defense drops?

[worthy horizon]

elio grid

deals both

[rocky oasis]

keep in mind your energy costs for elios grid

Its hard to take both MG and DC

while not getting fucked by gauge

[heavy sinew]

lived at 1% and won

leon goated

[errant moon]

I also did Elio and Korrina

If you time your sleep well it's not too bad

[young forge]

Why did Registeel use EQ here? I synced right at the start of Bar 3, so shouldn’t Registeel have waited to attack and then used Giga Impact?

[fading anvil]

Sleep can and will fail as I've found, so it's not worth the headache. Rock Slide flinches helped cinch it so it only took me about 2 attempts instead of 20

[pearl beacon]

I gave up on the 2/5
Too much time, too much pain

Slapped Jessie for comfort

[rocky oasis]

what was the grid for the bertha duo

[kind imp]

your sync went past the half bar?

[worthy horizon]

i'd imagine that was a rafa

[heavy sinew]

i think someone said it before here, but the game knows how much dmg you do, if you rafa, it queues a move instantly. if you dont, it most likely triggers half bar and waits

[young forge]

My sync went past the half bar. Did 60ish % damage

(Because I didn’t get enough special defense drops…)

[kind imp]

i think you got kinda unlucky with timing then

[heavy sinew]

prob?

[kind imp]

sometimes that happens #916852044692856834 message (ignore the sleep, it doesn't matter)

[young forge]

Okay I tried the solo already earlier today, maybe I should just do this. What’s the move order with two pairs?

[young forge]

I mean it didn’t matter for that run. Sync move + dark pulse wouldn’t have killed. Would have needed to flinch.

Of course the last few times, I can never queue a move before Giga Impact so…

[pearl beacon]

Like the nido duo
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/15400/45001?s=5&l=140&r=5&p=0&a=0&g=AAECAwQFBggdHyAhKSwtLg
But my bertha has capped energy to get endure and trap&sync
Still couldn't do it
Too many things that can go wrong, para, flinch, bad hitmon rolls, no crits (and mostly no sandstorm mprs)
