Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[chrome halo]

i'm surprised that NY Volkner is not able to solo Torn

[hallow gull]

One of the strongest PF, yet he cant solo anything

[chrome halo]

damn the genie got hand

[sturdy steeple]

if he got HE1 at least then the chances would be higher

people have gotten close, but the 30% is not helping him at all

[chrome halo]

sob

[lost juniper]

This probably requires so many paralysis procs

Also give seasonals grid expansion please

Menacing Üns

[hallow gull]

[hybrid oasis]

Really need to get my teams planned before it's the last day.

I don't tryhard these, so my target is maybe 15 wins.
Whom should I be using my Piercing Blows pairs on? Should I focus them on Terrakion, or Uxie, or split them up between the two?

[worthy horizon]

terrakion is most limiting but you'll def end up using some on uxie

[hybrid oasis]

Thanks, that does help

[worthy horizon]

they make uxie very easy whereas with terrakion you still have to tank its hits

so solgaleo is one of the big ones that you want to bring to uxie with its ground weakness

but since you're probably doing trios it is possible to just put them all on terrakion

[hybrid oasis]

I keep forgetting my attackers' weaknesses are a concern. But Earthquake is the signature ground move, so that's definitely a threat to the lion. Noted

[worthy horizon]

yea terrakion's sync damage is rock type but his ground type damage is far more threatening so ground guard ends up being one of the best lucky skills vs it

and ground weak pairs will suffer more than rock weak pairs

he doesn't earthquake nearly as much as he uses earth power though so if it's not on your tank it matters a bit less

still both terrakion and regirock are going to demand vigilance on most things

lot of spread damage with crits

anyway check pins for a rundown on the bosses

[hybrid oasis]

Will do. Thanks a lot for the ideas!

[karmic willow]

the issue

with piercing blow units

is that

you have to have SOMETHING to keep them alive

so a decent tank for one

and a damage reduction tech

of all the piercing blows one

only a few can do terrakion

imo

like Anni N

or NC marnie because flinch spam

N, Solgaleo gets trashed

[worthy horizon]

anni n is a massive wincon for terrak ye

[karmic willow]

and so on and so forth

[worthy horizon]

not enough to get away with a support eggmon partner but enough to get an easy clear with marlon

[karmic willow]

but yeah

if you can do a duo or a trio

then sure

piercing blows all the way

even a simple comp like Skyla Solgaleo and Mina works

[hallow gull]

@karmic willow i just look at your streak and how many 5/5 do you have ?

[karmic willow]

mix scout hates giving me anything but dupes

[hallow gull]

[karmic willow]

[hallow gull]

5/5 V Thoron

[karmic willow]

oh that was from the

paid banner back then

[drifting talon]

Who should I pair with Kimono Grimsley?

[karmic willow]

i guess i got a bit lucky with him lmfao

[karmic willow]

anything that can pump gauge

gardenia

toxicroak

and so on

[hallow gull]

And you complain about my luck when i got nothing from mix for 3 weeks

[karmic willow]

if you are feeling optimal

[karmic willow]

[hallow gull]

[drifting talon]

[drifting talon]

Egg Toxicroak? That's a thing?

also I already used Gardenia

[karmic willow]

wait i forgot

looker and toxicroak

lmfao

[hallow gull]

I got 2 five start from that 3 weeks, and you know what about them ?

Spotlight

[drifting talon]

*croagunk

[karmic willow]

oh

right

i did looker with nc marnie on terrak tho

but

yeah

looker is good for speed

the only thing he's good for this time

some say uxie but that psychic weakness + low dps is a no go

[hallow gull]

Looker pair with Kimono Grim just for meat shield, gauge, Sync Cd

[drifting talon]

Looker doesn't seem to be able to take hits well

[hallow gull]

Regirock is Steel weak at bar 2-3, and it debuffs itself defense

So you only want to survive bar 1, nuke bar 2-3

[drifting talon]

right! But how do I survive bar 1 with looker and grimsley? Just get lucky with flinch?

[hallow gull]

Yes

[drifting talon]

alright i can try

[karmic willow]

he's not meant to tank

at all

just

need for speed

and flinch so he doesn't die

by the time you get to bar 3

grimsley should be able to kill regirock easily

with a sync

bar 2 you skip entirely with metal burst

[hallow gull]

The hardest bar is bar 1

[rocky oasis]

got flinched by regi 4 times in a row

[drifting talon]

ooooof

[rocky oasis]

30% flinch rate my ass

[hallow gull]

Ah yes, enemy flinch chances

Always higher than it should be

[olive swift]

How u think I feel

When fken uxie freezes me with ice PUNCH

[drifting talon]

AUGH

THAT HAPPENED TO ME SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE

Holy shit it actually worked—

I got really lucky with flinches and mpr

I did not expect to be able to pull this off

[karmic willow]

rock slide triple flinch

good thing

that kukui has unflappble

and i sync'd with olivia

otherwise

i would have lost right then and there

[drifting talon]

you used Kukui and Olivia versus Regirock?

anyone else?

[hallow gull]

You can use Olivia with MC Regirock too

[drifting talon]

i dont have them yet

[karmic willow]

my third wheel was

tech kabutops

considering the fact that

A) i have limited flinches

B) bar 2 is hell

i just used sand blaster olivia lololol

we skipping bar 2

[gleaming cypress]

not only are my teams inefficient and rng heavy, they straight up don’t even work, maybe the reason why I find this LG unfun is because of my lack of team building skill

this was for terrakion

[kind imp]

So

This team hasn't wtz/piercing blows

So even on-type (Olympia) it's gonna be a slower team

So you'd have to be really good defensively so you can tank terrakion for longer

[rocky oasis]

dumb regi team bc im running out of options

[kind imp]

And evade+haze+sleep+tech tanking isn't bulky enough
So you go more tanky or you sleepchain (if you know how) or you go for a faster clear with wtz

[rocky oasis]

sync first w/ zinnia

[gleaming cypress]

new grid new luck

[rocky oasis]

sync w/ pallow 2nd and save the sync for after zinnia takes a regi sync

[kind imp]

I guess that works then

[rocky oasis]

zinnia needs 2 tm mprs ( save a tm for the atk drop )

[gleaming cypress]

if you don’t run dauntless she doesn’t do enough DPS though?

draco meteor spa drops

[rocky oasis]

its enough w/ pallow healing

I use outrage

bc def drop

[gleaming cypress]

confusion?

ok

[rocky oasis]

vigilance LS and clearheaded grid

[gleaming cypress]

alright

[rocky oasis]

honestly youre more likely to die to lack of gauge than anything

mega helps but yknow... rng is a pain

my gear

just making zinnia as bulky as possible

Not great but not the worst I gues

[rocky oasis]

current progress

Support 15
Tech 21
Strike 16
Egg 8
Sprint 1

61 units left

[fading anvil]

I'm trying BP Surge, Tech Lickitung and Mallow/Tsareena for Uxie but it's not working. No special defense and super effective makes it really slow. What can I do to make this a winner?

[rocky oasis]

i used surge vs regi i think

cant remember

[kind imp]

why licktung for trap if mallow already has confusion?

[fading anvil]

I'll scrap the whole team if I have to. I just thought a confusion attacker might work here

Oh for defense drops and in case I run out of confuse

[kind imp]

when are you using confuse?

[fading anvil]

Not at all because I die before clearing a bar

[kind imp]

i'd replace licktung with a sp.def buffer

you have syncro healing on surge?

[fading anvil]

Oh I don't. Darn.

[worthy horizon]

bp surge + mallow + any spdef buffer could manage?

[mint osprey]

Should be more than enough. Gotta time the confusion for sync only

[fading anvil]

Even on bar 1?

[mint osprey]

I am not sure how many times Uxie can recover from confusion before it gains immunity

[worthy horizon]

you wouldn't want to confuse for the first sync, maybe for the second one if that clears bar 1

but the first sync won't

[pearl beacon]

2
But the lsat one he recovers quickly

[mint osprey]

Also depends if you have surge EX. Maybe you can sandbag with synchro healing off Surge for a few times before you start going all in

Ideally you want to blow past bar 2 so it won't recover from confusion mid-bar

[true tartan]

so, who's going to attempt EX Role SS Ethan solos

[mint osprey]

I already done mine with Drake. That's painful enough for me to go solo

Drake just feels so bad to use

[chrome halo]

i think you should sync with Surge only on bar 1 to heal and farm sync buffs

then nuke with Mallow on the remaining bars

[mint osprey]

Yeah, with 3 pairs, it's much easier to farm sync points

[fading anvil]

Does Mallow need to be EX? Because I have surge EX

[river cliff]

So how long before we get a Morty solo on Uxie?

[true tartan]

https://vxtwitter.com/MizoreAwayuki/status/1805489351570473091

[fading anvil]

Man, if Uxie gets confusion resistance, the battle can't be won...

[chrome halo]

only use Teeter Dance before Mallow's nuke

[fading anvil]

It has to be right at like 50% because she can't nuke

[kind imp]

uxie doesn't recover from confusion on the transition of the first half bar

and surge should be fine with iron tail

so you don't need to nuke from above half i think

[fading anvil]

Okay I see the condition isn't removed first bar so that's good

[chrome halo]

i wouldn't use Teeter Dance at all on bar 1

Uxie has a chance to recover from confusion after 1 turn

[fading anvil]

So on bar 2, Mallow sync did less than 50% damage so it gained resistance and now I can't win

I think I need to EX her. These syncs are too wimpy

[karmic willow]

welp

luri got

251

meanwhile i'm still stuck on terrakion trios lololol

i'll do it tomorrow

trust

i got a few more in me

yeah...

234

for safety

[fading anvil]

She needed a more optimized grid. That's better now.

[rocky oasis]

is it just me or does morty not explode during solos anymore

like thats 2 runs in a row where i make it near the end

and he just doesnt go kaboom

[worthy horizon]

no idea why he wouldn't

[rocky oasis]

like im at 20% and he isnt exploding

did they change some kind of mechanic at some point?

bc bp soph explodes just fine

or he did last week

i died to a crit hammer arm i think?

that might have bugged smth out

smth is bugged i think

[worthy horizon]

do you have/can you get a recording?

[rocky oasis]

unfortunately no

cant afford to keep trying tho

so im tossing in a meat shield

[gleaming cypress]

morty needs to die to explode tho

[rocky oasis]

ik

[gleaming cypress]

well his drifblim needs to

hmm

[rocky oasis]

he is supposed to

but he doesnt

[gleaming cypress]

i don't have this issue

u need a recording probs

[rocky oasis]

maybe after lg

[mint osprey]

I think it's possible to miss with that Last Word

[thick dawn]

are you flinched when dying during these attempts

[rocky oasis]

idk?

[thick dawn]

i learned last night last word does not go off when flinched

[rocky oasis]

dont think so

[worthy horizon]

i'd assume it's that then

[rocky oasis]

maybe

im too tired to try again anyways

tossed in a support omastar

[loud shell]

Any new Morty solos since the expansion?

[stuck mantle]

I told luri will get top1 since non off others jp push so she have easy

No competion mean easy win

[stuck mantle]

Nice snow is going hard:) did he use extra energy?

[worthy horizon]

+0e i checked

[stuck mantle]

O nice then i can try when have free time:)

Since most snow solo is 10+🙂‍↔️ a never spend on ethan it

[worthy horizon]

yeah doesn't look too bad

[stuck mantle]

Ethan have sync reduce its help

He use healty healing?

[worthy horizon]

i believe so

[stuck mantle]

Stoic or grass guard can be too

He got alot hp left

[worthy horizon]

it's to make the most out of healthy benefits which he gets on grid

[dense yew]

Alright I’ve been too lazy during Gauntlet and now it’s third eye opening time. The ultimate technique. Throw random units together that are in teams of 2 and 3 to fucking just power through the stages

My goal is 150. My number atm. 80. 35 today and 35 tmr. Easy shit

[mint osprey]

I don't think you can do Regirock even with PB OG Morty

No heal means you need to finish the fight quick but then the rock puts up anti-crit

[heavy sinew]

Same as you

gonna go fuck all for the next 48 hours

[tender horizon]

[karmic willow]

yeah

234 is comfortable for me

236 is just....

ALMOST doable

if it wasn't because of the damned sleepchains 😦

[blissful rose]

In case anyone is interested, Top 500 is now at 67 streaks.

And a lot of low ratios still at around these positions.

[dense leaf]

i am at 68 right now and working on some extra clears : . Currently placed 486

[mint osprey]

A monkey, a plant and another monkey walked into the bar

[karmic willow]

how about top 100 tho

[karmic willow]

Even in death

Flinch is such a bad thing to experience

[stuck mantle]

Cheaper way grass guard

Healhty healing is more expensive too roll no need

Left for sync 1%😂

Aero finish joob

[karmic willow]

bette for latios solo lolololol

[stuck mantle]

Snow ritch im not for roll gold cookies

Have not many dont want spend it:)

[karmic willow]

then climb lg

ez

you have so many units it's easier for you to farm

[stuck mantle]

I farm it but drop gold is not good

Silver or bronze is easy get

[karmic willow]

then farm more

[stuck mantle]

Good is like 1/3 for 32

[karmic willow]

there are so many auto teams lol

[stuck mantle]

I dont use auto teams

Since they take way more time

[karmic willow]

Well

it's so sad you cannot buy your way for this one huh

[stuck mantle]

I dont need buy lol

[karmic willow]

you would buy if you can

[stuck mantle]

This gold is realy not need

I farm important stuff in villa

So have alot silver cookies for stoic fast track itc

This is wat i need:)

Use delux gold is barely need 🙂 i did grass guard 2 try 🙂 why spend if no need

Latios i think vigi or e9 whit zone can do it also

Need look for cheaper option first then expensive:)

[karmic willow]

keep this in mind whenever you say things like "I just used a unit at 3/5" when people ask for lower move level clears then

lol

[rocky oasis]

tossing shit at the wall vs terrakion

archer is a fun flincher bc he can quadqueue off his own bites

its weird but great

shame i keep forgetting he exists

[mint osprey]

Okay, like, how?

[wide citrus]

Just like thar

He’s just nate

[mint osprey]

No flinch to stop Iron Defense. No recovery. No SE damage

[sturdy steeple]

https://youtu.be/ICLnNZ7aSZA?si=jzVT9ngEvaBI0LbO

[mint osprey]

It's not in the database!

[sturdy steeple]

its on the solo sheet

dunno if the database tracks solos

since that would be redundant with the solo sheet

[mint osprey]

Maybe there's a different sheet but I don't see it here

[sturdy steeple]

sorry, its at the bottom because its new and i havent ordered it

[shy sinew]

It’s probably at the bottom and the sheet isn’t sorted yet

[mint osprey]

That nita clear tho

[sturdy steeple]

so silly

[mint osprey]

Yeah, I'm not gonna do it

[lost juniper]

Give the BP 5* units EX please

[quaint tartan]

Immediately

I have 20/20 Nita and Evelyn ready to go

[mint osprey]

I want all 4

[tender horizon]

This team is a pain

But i did it

Tech Kabutops OP

2/5 Ingo

[tender horizon]

Sharp entry Nita confirmes

Lg clear things getting crazier every day

[mint osprey]

A much tougher Falkner clear

[rocky oasis]

40 units left

saving sst red for the last clear

[dawn plume]

got mix blue finally

does the tina duo work with him 1/5 ex

on terrakion

[karmic willow]

Ni

No

Doesn't kill it fast enough

[dawn plume]

[lost juniper]

Actually it does

A japanese player did it

https://youtu.be/fiSo_0xaNd8

[dawn plume]

looks like blue needs ww3

for damage

i can give it a try

worst comes to worst i'll just add egg flareon or something, this late its not a big deal

[mint osprey]

You might need to EX him at least

Oh, Flareon. Maybe not

[lost juniper]

EX on Blue is required yeah

[dawn plume]

yeah that much for sure

[lost juniper]

Tbh all field pairs should be EX for Terrakion

[mint osprey]

I swear it never feels enough without Field

Guess I got spoiled by the longer WTZ

[tender horizon]

I mean, Nita has max evasion too

[mint osprey]

But only Ridicure 1 (20%) versus (50%) for Falkner

[hallow gull]

Finally

This took forever

[river cliff]

Can Morty get away with clearing Uxie with just a statuser now? I'm curious as to whether he can nuke bar 2

[tender horizon]

Alcremie OP

[lost juniper]

He can. I think there were Uxie clears with Parasect pre expansion

[river cliff]

Wow. Well I have no idea where to use venomoth now lol

[tender horizon]

I mean just use it

U hv 2 days to rearrange everything, do u wanna

[inner turret]

Morty can solo now soooo

https://youtu.be/hmwiftvS5a8?si=t8t-fe6I4RdBy70t

[heavy sinew]

WHAT

[scenic bolt]

He got a whole ass powerboost

I feel like this is expected

Specially since he has a evasion gimmick

[karmic willow]

ohhh naoooo

now is the time

[inner turret]

He got raikou too

[river cliff]

I wonder if he could theoretically get Latias

[inner turret]

You'd need to run DC2 and pray on shadow ball drops, and even then you'd struggle a lot

theoretically it might be possible, but extremely painful

[mint osprey]

Now I feel like an idiot not knowing he got Ridicure 4

[inner turret]

It's OP

[river cliff]

If he can pull it off Registeel is probably doable as well

[chrome halo]

He got fucking Ridicure 4???

[inner turret]

yeah

[chrome halo]

Morty's redemption arc now???

[inner turret]

Rafa got this far

Oh yeah, he just got Azelf btw

https://fixvx.com/dfe_tc/status/1805635032670945678?t=upLwwNiQmIF1C7vtSgitHw&s=19

[river cliff]

It's a shame he didn't get quick combo on his grid, he would've been insane

[scenic bolt]

Why’s that so big?

[inner turret]

usually pairs with ridicure get ridicure 1 or 2

50% chance to heal when you dodge is a lot

[chrome halo]

He got healing now his existing solos are not that painful anymore

[mint osprey]

I have already been using him to clear Entei, so

[inner turret]

especially since it's what, a 18% healing or smth ?

[mint osprey]

It's still painful since you need to MPR consistently

[inner turret]

Now you probably can get away with just regular evasion

[chrome halo]

He got TM MPR so i can pray

[inner turret]

they meant phantom force mpr

[mint osprey]

I mean Phantom Force

[chrome halo]

Ah

[scenic bolt]

The lg people go crazy cuz of healing

[mint osprey]

It can run out and it's gonna suck when you do

[chrome halo]

Yeah no Sync Quickening is bs

[scenic bolt]

Ridicure go crazy

[inner turret]

I mean

[scenic bolt]

What’s that

[inner turret]

Remove Ridicure from Eve she goes from 9 to what

4 ? 5 maybe ?

[mint osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU-DWdLHPQM

[chrome halo]

MPR refill on quick move upon syncing

[mint osprey]

You can do extremely well for the first 2 bars, then they decide to not RNG you any Phantom Force, and you just die

[chrome halo]

Oh god it looks painful

[stuck mantle]

Morty day

Strange his bigest fan drift did 0 solo him:)

[dawn plume]

yeah morty is insane now lol

best powerboost in a while

good timing right before dark/ghost hse

[scenic bolt]

For lg

[inner turret]

Can't wait for Serena's

[scenic bolt]

I don’t think it’ll be that impactful for 3v3

[inner turret]

she's a pre-1st anni pair so one can hope

[inner turret]

CS clears are now easier with haymaker and agile entry

[scenic bolt]

Critical eye les go

[dawn plume]

haymaker is def impactful

and agile entry

[mint osprey]

I don't think OG Morty will be that good for HSE. Who knows

[scenic bolt]

Well of course but best powerboost in a while good

Sus

For 3v3

[chrome halo]

Watch her getting PB last

[scenic bolt]

For lg yes the best pb

[inner turret]

Her getting it last means she gets it nonetheless

I'll be waiting

[scenic bolt]

What are u waiting

For

[chrome halo]

I meant Tierno would get his first before her

[scenic bolt]

[inner turret]

[scenic bolt]

But why is mael looking for a Serena on

Power boost

[inner turret]

nah so far all power boost have been from pre-1st anni pairs

idrk ngl

crit for sure, and something to sleep chain consistently too

currently she relies on many passives that have a chance to activate (mind games 4, stat leech 4, fast track 2 ls, mgr...), i'd like a passive that activates 100% of the time

[dawn plume]

only 10 year 1 gen pools left without grid expansion

[scenic bolt]

Ah I forget about that Lins thing

Kinda

[dawn plume]

but then theres steven and ss red...

[scenic bolt]

I’d just be happy with critical eye

[dawn plume]

or maybe even the seasonals, lmao

[scenic bolt]

?

[inner turret]

lol
lmao even

[scenic bolt]

Ss red has 5/5

[inner turret]

seasonal getting a boost? no way

[inner turret]

yes but no side expansion

[scenic bolt]

Oh powerboost

[dawn plume]

yeah

[scenic bolt]

Hmm

[dawn plume]

like cynthia or lance

or ss cynthia

[scenic bolt]

I don’t think red is like

[chrome halo]

H Siebold's redemption arc is purely a copium rn

[scenic bolt]

The one that needs it

[scenic bolt]

Yeeeeah

[dawn plume]

steven needs it more

[scenic bolt]

He needs it

Yeah I’d give it to Steven

[inner turret]

Steven wants sync quickening

[scenic bolt]

But ss red we can wait a year

Seriously what is quickening

[jade ore]

Quick move refresh on sync

[scenic bolt]

Ooooo

[chrome halo]

I did explain about it earlier

[scenic bolt]

I missed it

[chrome halo]

Time to pull out a reading command

[scenic bolt]

[inner turret]

+reading

[worn skiff]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/855438548684374045/1069103333429747752/image-2.png

[scenic bolt]

Imagine punishing people online for reading

But also

[chrome halo]

That's me

[scenic bolt]

What a sneaky way to get people to 5/5 steven

[chrome halo]

Omg a Rebelion traitor

[inner turret]

steven sync quickening would be huge for 5/5 steven

[scenic bolt]

Get that staggering 9

[scenic bolt]

I just like this emote more

[dawn plume]

heres the remaining year 1 gen pools without powerboost

[scenic bolt]

It gives off the right emotion

[chrome halo]

[scenic bolt]

Pykuo used it m and I was hooked

[dawn plume]

i imagine they spend a year giving one to all these guys, maybe some others like steven and ss red

[inner turret]

Dawn with haymaker

[dawn plume]

MAYBE seasonals (copium)

[chrome halo]

Jasmine

[dawn plume]

then move to year 2s who need them

like lusamine or nate

[scenic bolt]

Please

[chrome halo]

Now we are talking

[gleaming cypress]

when are they giving brendan downside up in his grid 🙏

[scenic bolt]

Boozema and summer steven summer lyra

Like YES

[gleaming cypress]

i wanna run a lucky skill that's not dauntless ong

[inner turret]

Actually on Dawn I'd like Defense Siphon or smth

[gleaming cypress]

no quarter too 🙏

[jade ore]

I dont expect brendan to get anything bc he got the mega

[scenic bolt]

Rosa and h siebold need too

Now that I think about it there’s a lot of seasonals that just suck

[jade ore]

Giovanni/Zinnia moment

[dawn plume]

ss elesa please

[river cliff]

I don't think anyone needs an expansion more than Wallace

[dawn plume]

give her defensive buffs

wallace needs it so badly

[gleaming cypress]

gio/m2 is fine

[dawn plume]

probably the most

[gleaming cypress]

he alr got the mega

[inner turret]

Giovanni's was bleh
Giving him Psystrike is such a throw

[scenic bolt]

YO WALLACE

YOUR SO RIGHR

[river cliff]

The mega barely changed anything

[scenic bolt]

WALLACE DESERVES BETTER

[inner turret]

good stats on the mega but psystrike sucks so bad

[jade ore]

This is my point

[gleaming cypress]

wallace? oh

[dawn plume]

i used giovanni on regirock lg7 with psystrike lmao

[jade ore]

They got megas instead of grid expansions

[scenic bolt]

Well it doesn’t change anything cuz ur not using confusion

[dawn plume]

too bad regirock is back now and giovanni is ontype on BOTH the other two

[chrome halo]

Confusion is better for soloing Loltios

One bar spam ftw

[inner turret]

having a 1 gauge move is great

with a fast animation too

[river cliff]

More optimal to forego powerup

[chrome halo]

10% confusion against Uxie too

[scenic bolt]

[gleaming cypress]

we really banking on 10%s to disable the passive

[river cliff]

Sometimes you gotta

[scenic bolt]

Wallace get +100 defenses for powerboost

I’m not coping wdym

[hallow gull]

~~Just brute force it ~~

[chrome halo]

Give him actual dmg multipliers

[chrome halo]

~~How about no ~~

+cooked

[hallow gull]

I brute force bar 2 with Cheryl

10% just sucks

[chrome halo]

They haven't implemented the command yet

[jade ore]

[dawn plume]

[inner turret]

Wallace just needs
literally anything bro that guy is so freaking bad

SpA, Speed, crit, sync mults
PLEASE

[jade ore]

Yeah he needs a lot

[scenic bolt]

I love the pause

He just needs

…

Yes

[inner turret]

he wants honing hit for SpA + brainpower + vigi so you can run ft2 ls

and only then we can start talking

defense buffs too

[scenic bolt]

Isn’t honing hit

[jade ore]

TM change: changes Trainer Move to "Glory of Leadership!" on entry

[chrome halo]

He is a glorified 3* by today 's standards

[scenic bolt]

Only attack

[inner turret]

honing hit is atk and crit

[dawn plume]

give him fortuitous 9 or something damn

[jade ore]

Honing Hit is attack and crit yeah

[chrome halo]

Please

[inner turret]

he needs one for spa

[dawn plume]

no stat buffs

crazy

[chrome halo]

Wdym no Shielded gridded?

[scenic bolt]

Be a bit more realistic

[chrome halo]

[scenic bolt]

Tm on entry change to anni lillie

[dawn plume]

Glory to the Flame!

[scenic bolt]

[chrome halo]

Glory to the Self-Destruct!

[scenic bolt]

Glory of the flame I don’t need attack buffs give it to me

[chrome halo]

He gets Haymaker too

[scenic bolt]

[jade ore]

Real

[inner turret]

Interference Sync 1

[dawn plume]

giving real ss cynthia dragon breath furious brawn vibes

[chrome halo]

Dire Hit+ MP Rekindle

[chrome halo]

Bro you forgot the double 00

001

[inner turret]

right

interference sync 0.01

[scenic bolt]

Wut

[young forge]

Is there a good partner for 1/5 Rose EX against Regirock?

[inner turret]

Probably anything with speed

[scenic bolt]

Does he actually have interference sync 1

Or is just maymay

[inner turret]

nah i'm trolling

[dawn plume]

we will find out tonight

[river cliff]

I ran my 3/5 Rose with support Magneton and support Scyther. A shoddy tank and a speed supportcan get him through comfortably, and I don't imagine it'd be much different at 1/5

[inner turret]

Ok, Wallace wants

• Full-Bracing P-Move 9 (stoic 9 + acumen 9 in 1 passive, yes that exists already)
• A Honing Hit variant that buffs SpA instead of Atk
• A sync mult that's at least a 50% power up (interf sync 5, brainpower 5, smth like that)
• Gauge, somehow
  - Brine Staggering like SS Kris

[river cliff]

Man, most eggmons have more direction than his kit

[scenic bolt]

Please name them

Not p move

[inner turret]

that's the name of the passive

[scenic bolt]

Pain

[dawn plume]

variety agatha has that passive

[quaint tartan]

Watch him getting grand entry 6 and focus rush 3

[inner turret]

I MEAN

I'd take it

[quaint tartan]

The real issue is SSElesa
she needs everything

[inner turret]

I'm even taking Grand Entry 4

and focus rush 2 (1 kinda sucks)

ss elesa needs HE1 on thunder bare minimum

[scenic bolt]

Wdym

She’s a sync countdown bot

[dawn plume]

elesa needs like

[scenic bolt]

That’s not bad

[dawn plume]

full bracing t move

[inner turret]

full bracing command+ 9

+2 def and spd when it uses a trainer move

[scenic bolt]

Ain’t no way grand entry 6

But like y yall hate ss elesa so much

[chrome halo]

He deserves it

[inner turret]

grand entry 6 completely invalidates the grand entry 1 in his current grid

[dawn plume]

ss elesa just hasnt aged that well

she cant take hits

[inner turret]

grand entry 4 can happen tho

[chrome halo]

SS Elesa isnt great on LG

[dawn plume]

evasion bot that dies to sync

reliant on mpr

[inner turret]

she needs a +50 HP node

Like Wally

[fading anvil]

Could use a better 4th move. It's the old philosophy of "one weak attack, one strong attack" and you'll never use one of them

[scenic bolt]

She only needs defensive stuff

Nothing elder

Else

[inner turret]

it's good to have both

[scenic bolt]

Having both is great for lg players

[inner turret]

use thunder when you want to paralyse, otherwise spam thundershock

[scenic bolt]

Spam 1 bar

[magic nymph]

When does uxie etc remove their immunity passives? It feels sometimes they can't be statused only to be affected by the same status later on

[scenic bolt]

And supports like the flexibility to cost no gauge

That’s why most the top tiers have a gimmick like that

[inner turret]

they don't remove immunity passives

uxie builds up immunity

[scenic bolt]

(Rosa just generates 3 bars per song lol)

[magic nymph]

Yeah but sometimes she cannot be burned but can be burned later on

[fading anvil]

That accuracy though. But she boosts it, I think? Well, I would never use Starmie's Hydro Pump

[inner turret]

oh on bar 2 there's the status shield at the start

but you don't need to status bar 2 anyway

[magic nymph]

So if she gets, say, flameproof it won't ever go away

[inner turret]

yeah

[magic nymph]

I see, thanks

[karmic willow]

it's so over

[hallow gull]

Ok i missed my quad queue but Last Word saved me anyway

[karmic willow]

brooo

dang

you're really doing it

i'm still gonna do morty + venomoth just to clear in time this time

@hallow gull how bad is it?

[hallow gull]

Not really

[karmic willow]

i see

[hallow gull]

In this i got +5 evasion

[karmic willow]

i mean next time imma do it for real so

[hallow gull]

So cant even oneshot bar 2

[karmic willow]

[hallow gull]

But you still need to deal with Phantom Force Mpr

[chrome halo]

[hallow gull]

Even those he has 2 Mpr 4 but i still got 1 unlucky run with 0 Phantom Force

[true tartan]

General unit too strong

[inner turret]

what evasion does to a pair™️

[true tartan]

getting ridicure and going to destroy Uxie lol

[river cliff]

What are the chances of rock slide flinching all three pairs?

[inner turret]

0.3^3

[river cliff]

😦

[true tartan]

0.15^3

[inner turret]

yeah i had aggrav in mind

[river cliff]

Well shucks

Guess I'm just lucky

[inner turret]

extremely unlikely

but it happens

[heavy sinew]

maybe it's finally a sign to EX Morty

[inner turret]

pretty much +50% bulk

[lost juniper]

I EX-ed him to do the Morty + Venomoth duo

He can do without but I wasn't getting lucky

[dense yew]

God I hate this mode. I’m struggling almost any time I start gaining traction. It sucks too because when I’m going it’s great and I get to have fun with units I never usually use. But then I hit the slumps of trying to kill Terrakion.

[dawn plume]

got it

1/5 ex

needed ww3 for damage

[inner turret]

Gaming

[rigid hill]

Omg somebody has over 250 streak

Was it even higher last rotation with easier opponents?

[dawn plume]

yeah the top streak last time was like 291 or something

we thought next one would be the 300 for sure

then they threw terrakion at us

next time for sure

[kind imp]

296 i think #1012311116778586182 message

so close

[full pond]

Minimal Korrina partner vs Uxie?

[quaint tartan]

solo

Tech parasect/likitung/venomoth

[full pond]

She ain’t got no healing

[quaint tartan]

There was the 3/5 solo even before cake

[full pond]

What skill?

[karmic willow]

just dodge

[karmic willow]

vigilance

[full pond]

Yeah that’s why I was trying.

[karmic willow]

kinda obvious cuz uxie got those guaranteed hits from swifts and d.gleam

though

you are supposed to skip bar 2

using a nuke

[full pond]

Rising tide, fort 9, sp reload 4, and shifty striker 9 is what I’m using

[dawn plume]

i duod 1/5 ss korrina and 1/5 variety agatha… not that variety agatha is a common unit to have

[full pond]

I guess I just have to buff crit at some later point so I don’t push uxie as much in the beginning

[chrome halo]

Buff crit before you enter bar 2

[full pond]

K I’ll try that

[lost juniper]

I finally made SS Hau 3/5 EX

Terrakion is too hard without it

[true tartan]

someone was going to attempt EX Sophocles on Tornadus

[full pond]

Dazzling Gleam likes to hit Korrina a lot

[stuck mantle]

You need nuke bar 2 whit korrina

And fish for miss

And need have hit reload so can steal uxie sts

Half bar 1 and bar 3

So she dont have any raise sts and no accu

[lost juniper]

I did the solo without nuking

Korrina does a ton of damage

[stuck mantle]

I nuke bar 2 and skipp it

Less chance you get hit if avoid it

[worthy horizon]

he can clear bar 1 without full para i think lol

besides needing it for toxic

like i attempted it but with a 3* eggmon meat shield just to tank toxic

and i didn't reset for x spdef mpr on that one

don't remember why i 20/20'd soph pre-ex but i did so

still not solo viable

as far as i can tell

[stuck mantle]

Dont see how he solo survive bar 3

Ex dont give him any extra sts

Just biger sync nuke its all

[true tartan]

I can see a way, but it requires luck as always hahaa

[worthy horizon]

i don't consider the amount of full para required as viable

[stuck mantle]

Torn need get para some times

[true tartan]

not even full para things

is more about sync rush by abusing Unyielding

[stuck mantle]

This will work if torn not sync

[true tartan]

as long the sync gives you the damage output for sync nuking rush

as Tornadus is weak to the slows

PLUS the paralysis

[stuck mantle]

I just dont see wat ex help him?

Its just 1 sync more damage its all

[worthy horizon]

he'd have to clear bar 2 in a single sync which would definitely require dc2 if possible

[true tartan]

the problem is that his innate is bound to flinch

and not to paralysis/slow

[stuck mantle]

Yes

[worthy horizon]

yea

[stuck mantle]

But he have cakewalk in grid

[true tartan]

Cakewalk is not needed for this

you can use Static Shock 5 + Innate for better results

can grab Aggravation with it hmm

[stuck mantle]

Aggravation lol why?

[true tartan]

to... flinch-sync?

[stuck mantle]

Need hope he get flinch if you need from luck 30%

And wat you will use befor his sync?

[true tartan]

the other move?

[stuck mantle]

3 gauge para?

[true tartan]

yeah?

[stuck mantle]

Not sure how many times you use it befor get hit

[true tartan]

it has MGR9, decently enough

• a way to max speed

[worthy horizon]

the grid i used was cakewalk + static shock already

[true tartan]

hit while flinching?

[worthy horizon]

did not get that no

[true tartan]

well... that would've doubled the power if anything

but now, the EX being active

is like having a flinch sync nuke pre-EX

[stuck mantle]

Ex its just work 1 time extra damage

[true tartan]

...?

[stuck mantle]

He is tech no?

[true tartan]

yeah?

[stuck mantle]

1,5 first sync

[true tartan]

no

x1.5 ALL syncs

[worthy horizon]

every sync

[true tartan]

is a Power Modifier

at 5/5, his Sync has 360 BP

instead of the regular 240

if you hit with Static Shock 5, it is 540

and if you manage to use the flinch

1080

the biggest issue is that he doesn't have a way to raise crit

[worthy horizon]

flinch at 1st sync, -3 spe cakewalk static shock +50 sync power

[stuck mantle]

Same like masked royal

[worthy horizon]

still 2 syncs for bar 1 for sure

[true tartan]

and there's no way to reach near half with just regular hits, right?

has so many multipliers yet low BP moves

[worthy horizon]

yeah you'd have to use zing zap and proc flinch early probably

[stuck mantle]

But then you have no flinch for syncs

Since you can flinch him 2 times

[worthy horizon]

best case scenario you finish the fight in 4 syncs with clearing bars 2 and 3 in one sync each

that's still a lot to ask to survive through

[true tartan]

4 syncs trying to just hit good enough lol

[stuck mantle]

Torn bar 3 need have para also

Wat he can clean any time

[worthy horizon]

and you have to reset for every toxic full para so that filters out 7/8ths of attempts immediately

[stuck mantle]

If he got first aid maybe

No heal is realy bad

Like morty got heal and now crazy good

Its show how this is important for solos

[true tartan]

how useful it is

more than important

healing, evasion, flinch are the key things for LG solos

[worthy horizon]

idk if anyone's ever attempted tornadus with 5* 20/20 norman or if they did how far they got

he has healing

and he2

[true tartan]

sad he ain't a tech tho

[stuck mantle]

Dont worry summer cynthia will solo torn😋

[lost juniper]

Doubt Norman could do it

He just isn't tanky enough doesn't do enough damage

[worthy horizon]

likely not but i'd still want to see how far he gets esp with dc2

maybe ft2 would still be optimal, pretty awful speed stat

[dense yew]

How many times can Uxie be trapped

[lost juniper]

Twice

[dense yew]

Ok gotcha thanks

[eternal hill]

44 wins atm. Me:
https://tenor.com/view/green-mile-im-tired-boss-michael-clarke-duncan-gif-2375696290766999196

[worthy horizon]

more specifically uxie can recover from trap twice and killing a bar wouldn't count as recovering or proc lessen interference

so if you activated bar 2 change under trap you could still trap twice more

[river cliff]

Are there any recorded duo clears of SS Erika beating Regirock? I've been trying it with a flincher but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it

[lost juniper]

I would use it on Terrakion with said flincher and a third

[worthy horizon]

i got duo recordings w/ tina and w/ lodge blue on terrakion but not on regirock no

[river cliff]

I've about run out of Regirock clears, so I'm having to shuffle some pairs around

[lost juniper]

Idk then. I plan to use her on Terrakion

[worthy horizon]

wonder if support tangela could be enough for regirock

[lost juniper]

I think it should work

[tender horizon]

YALLS

Cant believe this shit fking worked

[inner turret]

Bro nuked with Lorelei

[tender horizon]

1/5 Grusha ex and Lorelei nuke

As u can see theres 7 syncs

These bijes tough af they taking like 10% damage only in bar 1

[pearl beacon]

Looks pain, also idk how you can deal with raised def w/o crit

+100 atk node and crit eye may help
Dena plz

[scenic bolt]

Shut

[worthy horizon]

with enough dc2 procs he can overcome the raised defense but that's also a lot to ask for and idk if -6 def plus all the sync power buffs is enough to clear bar 2 in a single sync still

[tender horizon]

1/5 cuties

[young forge]

Are there any less stressful egg mon sleep duos for this gauntlet? I’ve been able to use Elio and Melony

Well this was one, did it first try

[worthy horizon]

yeah caitlin bianca and lucian shouldn't be too bad

lear is supposed to be doable but i never attempted that

[river cliff]

Serena tech Flareon is pretty easy since sun lets you bypass two bars

[worthy horizon]

and offensive wtz setters do even more damage than caitlin and lucian

[dense leaf]

I did Elio, 1/5 Lear and added squirtle just to put rain and finish quickly lol. The gauge can be a problem

[shy sinew]

yeah Lear gauge is rough (I ran mine with PalBea but sticking him in a sleepchain would make more sense)

[river cliff]

It ain't much, but it's honest work

[heavy sinew]

I can only uninstall and reinstall the game so many times before it crashes again

Optimization sucks

Can't even go through my roster before crashing

[worthy horizon]

game update tonight, could fix things

[young forge]

Who tanks for that team?

[river cliff]

Technically doesn't matter but Flareon

[heavy sinew]

First time I'll actually be fully awake for one

Let's see if it's good

[heavy sinew]

hold on I think I know my answer to this

[rocky oasis]

26 units left

[dawn plume]

morty is a beast gah damn

didnt use him til now and it paid off

[rocky oasis]

gonna do the solo the next time regi comes back

[heavy sinew]

Venomoth?

[dawn plume]

yea venomoth

ik he can actually solo now which is like lmao wow

but not enough time left to be wasting attempts on something like that

[river cliff]

Doing it with a statuser isn't too bad since you can just skip bar 2

Damage control is just sort of finicky

[rocky oasis]

22 units left

in the home stretch

[heavy sinew]

you got this gamer

[river cliff]

53 left for me, but my stamina is almost out

[dawn plume]

i have accepted that i am leaving many units unused

it is what it is

[kind imp]

^

[heavy sinew]

i have not gotten past 75

[kind imp]

66 pairs, 26 eggs

and 120 wins, i don't think i can get top 100

[river cliff]

If I were smart I would've stopped a while ago

But at this point leaving pairs unused is going to drive me nuts

[dawn plume]

i still haven't used like half my roster i'm at 87 wins

i just went slow af

been doing other shit

at the throwing eggmons on annoying clears stage

anyways trailer in 10 minutes probably

i have less units used than like everyone around me on the leaderboard lol

[heavy sinew]

I have lost notion of time and completely forgot EST is like 10 pm

West Coast my behated

[worthy horizon]

west coast best coast

[heavy sinew]

it's 7 pm here and I got used to trailers being at 10 pm

[dawn plume]

trailer will prob just be summer seasonals

which is a snooze most likely

more waiting for datamine lol

[heavy sinew]

summer Cynthia = game dying

[river cliff]

Same

[dawn plume]

finding budget teams is enjoyable

even if im not optimizing my streak

i like seeing what works

[worthy horizon]

yeah the teambuilding has been a lot of fun but mainly for terrakion

[shy sinew]

I'm just trying to hold top 100 at this point, just slipped in a couple hours ago and I'll be on the fringe the whole time unless top 100 shoots up to like 145 range

[river cliff]

Weirdly I've had the most fun figuring out new Uxie teams since a lot of the pairs I'd normally use have gone elsewhere

[shy sinew]

blue cookie supply is nonexistent so next gauntlet is all farming for me anyways

[worthy horizon]

i'm at 1331 3* blue rn lol

was low 600 at my lowest

[river cliff]

2k for me

[kind imp]

569 here

[river cliff]

That's what happens when you spend half a gauntlet trying to farm for entry skills on everyone that might need them

[shy sinew]

next time someone asks which lucky cookie vigilance is in I’m just going to send them this screenshot

[river cliff]

That's after rolling vigilance on everyone, I had 5k before

[worthy horizon]

yeah i want to be as safe as possible on deluxe cookies

[river cliff]

Omg I finally rolled sharp entry on Jasmine, I've spent literally all gauntlet just trying to get that and speedy entry on Sidney

Now I can save silver cookies again

[raven crane]

Bottom right, teehee.

[shy sinew]

I need deluxes so bad I swear I'm going to spend this downtime between gauntlets researching the fastest single clears I can do on each LA

[river cliff]

Fingers crossed for latios, entei, bulu then

[shy sinew]

I just need one tbh, I do a lot of auto farming at my desk and I can't be bothered to cycle through three different preset teams lol

[worthy horizon]

first one doesn't give any deluxes though i thought

[pearl beacon]

Worth waiting a good lg for farming

Did once, set for life

More than 800 deluxe, abt 3k of every other gold cookie
And most of my units already got two or more ls

The only ones I'm scarce on are the silver

[river cliff]

It can happen it's just very low odds

[worthy horizon]

yeah i'm farming a bunch and i can't recall seeing any

[kind imp]

i farmed 1k of each gold cookie on latios lg11 and i'll prob farm 1k more next latios lg
zerena go brrr

[worthy horizon]

not that i'd be paying perfect attention

[kind imp]

1%

[pearl beacon]

Same

I think I had a 20ish fast autos

[worthy horizon]

but yea you want long-ish streaks for optimal deluxe farming

[kind imp]

i have one fast auto

deluxe i think i'll do by hand
rn i'm still fine on them

[pearl beacon]

Oof last day, gonna dump as much as I can
Need

[river cliff]

Thank you Morty for freeing up Venomoth to give my 1/5 Alder a lease on life

[dawn plume]

@tender horizon

you won

lol i was literally doing a clear w ss acerola and then this dropped

[chrome halo]

Please do a Sonia clear before the anni datamine

[dawn plume]

perhaps

[sturdy steeple]

[dawn plume]

well seeing as i'm gonna be up for a few hours now, guess we crank out some more last minute clears

[heavy sinew]

Boring update

[thick dawn]

end of the line for me

hope everyone had fun with what I had to offer this lg :>

[dawn plume]

your reward is new alola seasonals

[heavy sinew]

W quag

[olive swift]

Is it possible for me top 100 or give up

[kind imp]

depends

can you get to 130-140 in a day?

[olive swift]

No

[heavy sinew]

cut your losses

Sorry for the heartbreak

[pearl beacon]

Depend on how fast you can dump everything

I'm running shameless trios and fk, need tickets

Rosa

[dawn plume]

aintnoway

[olive swift]

I WANT TO CRI

[stuck mantle]

Summer acerola😍

[heavy sinew]

that's sad

That's hilarious

[stuck mantle]

Rosa if have physical move or giga drain would kill

[heavy sinew]

I have found the solution to fix my crashes
