Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[karmic willow]

oh yeah

new roles are in

but

imma just drop primeape

[runic idol]

So... Any easy solos for bulu?

I am short on deluxe cookies and might have to farm some of these

[worthy horizon]

don't need to do solos if you're farming

[runic idol]

I am short on good units

And skill

[chrome halo]

most solos take longer than doing trios

[runic idol]

It's more getting it done than anything else

And trios will burn my handful of good units quickly

[bitter gate]

may keeps missing crits

why is she like tihs

[worthy horizon]

solos doc is in the pins

[bitter gate]

i literally oneshot the second bar

and she refuses to crit it

6 games in a row

[lost juniper]

SS Lyra on Moltres was literally first try for me

EX R makes it easy

[chrome halo]

i haven't started yet, is 1/5 EXR SS Lyra solo considered "easy"?

[lost juniper]

With 1/5 I think you should time your terrain procs well

With 3/5 I could afford not doing it

[bitter gate]

ahh, she missed it again

zz

[quaint tartan]

Reject Nate embrace Elesa

[chrome halo]

[arctic mauve]

im too lazy to 10 streak this lg but i need the cookies

UGUHH

[brisk sapphire]

Well got my HS on NC Blue

[shy gale]

Uh its that time again

But fiery bird

[karmic willow]

but yeah @worthy horizon do record that duo so i can try it ToT

[worthy horizon]

still have to get past the lysandre solo first xd

[arctic mauve]

first of many…

[worthy horizon]

and i don't think i'm getting it tonight

[karmic willow]

wow

what a team

[arctic mauve]

yeah LOL had to flameproof my fucking ss red

[karmic willow]

no that's a given but

[arctic mauve]

im not relying on healing hand mpr on sycamore tm

[karmic willow]

why not a flincher?

[arctic mauve]

im saving them for later runs

get the agonizing ones early

[karmic willow]

riiight

you do you friend

[runic idol]

So what's the general strategy for getting deluxe cookies, go as far as you can and reset?

[chrome halo]

it's go as far as you can

[stuck mantle]

Still rember how i did it befor🤣

[runic idol]

Gods this is a bad one for cookie farming

[chrome halo]

resetting means your reward level gets resetted too, and it's less likely to get 3* deluxe

[runic idol]

Even the special cookie sucks ass

[chrome halo]

well going for high streaks is the only reliable way to farm 3* deluxe

[runic idol]

Ok

High is what

12+? 15?

[chrome halo]

going as far as you can

most people's beliefs say 100+

[worthy horizon]

100+ is more for getting a streak for the sake of it, if you just want the cookies you can go for way less and reset

a lot of people just farm 1 but that's not efficient for deluxes

30 would be ideal enough for me once i'm committed to farming

but that's not as attainable as it was a couple gauntlets ago

[pearl beacon]

1 is fine if you need bronzies
Short 1-10 fine for silver
For gold is ehhhh

[lost juniper]

This is an awful lineup to farm

[ebon raft]

Ugh Moltres

[bitter gate]

welp

im glad I don't need to rely on

the misty duo anymore

all in the curve

[ebon raft]

… I didn’t even see Latias is right there too lol

[worthy horizon]

latias ends up being not that bad if you can spare something that debuffs a lot/has piercing blows/gaze and some decent tank

but it's always much worse than latios whatever you do

should you be using the same team for either for some reason

[graceful folio]

Don't mind me just lurking and admiring in silence

[worthy horizon]

yea 3/5 anni steven does a whole lot of work vs moltres

just annoying that i don't have 3 passive tech farfetch'd which is by far his most common partner there

[lost juniper]

I'm gonna use them, but on Bulu since my Steven is 1/5

[dreamy ginkgo]

They gave us guaranteed cookie skill move gauge refresh. 😖

[worthy horizon]

really? that would mean they gave us guaranteed cookie 10 instead of 4 which was revenge boost

[dreamy ginkgo]

Oh it’s revenge boost maybe, it’s one of the two. 😅

[worthy horizon]

yeah it's gotta be that, last gauntlet was guaranteed cookie 3

[runic idol]

Oh fuck moltres

Why does it need so many weather sets

I think farming deluxes can wait to a less terrible LG

[dreamy ginkgo]

Worst LG set so far… maybe the next will be worse. 🤣

[dreamy ginkgo]

They know we’re waiting for these cookies.

[bitter gate]

It's kinda surreal how

Latias either feels easy as hell

Or tears your hair out

@median swan best boi solo

[inner turret]

Either you hit or you dont

Shrimple as that

[robust nymph]

Wait what's this, with tech farfetch'd?

[bitter gate]

quaggles started it I thikn

I just stole it

it was done some time ago

techfetch'd, yes

in any case, Kris solo was also done first try

kek

I'm kinda tempted to just do the base Ethan Bulu solo

[wicked tusk]

im on run 102

[heavy sinew]

I love Rafa, I immediately knew he started with Anni Raihan on Moltres

My goat

[heavy sinew]

Common Bicio W

[wicked tusk]

i thought i was ur goat 💔

[lost juniper]

The ultimate Raihan fan

[bitter cave]

.

[tiny hedge]

Hmm i wonder what the lucky cookie is this tim-

Revenge boost 4.

[chrome halo]

Remember the time when Uxie was bugged so they repeated that LG to fix the bug

[brisk sapphire]

What bug

[chrome halo]

We got 6 Revenge Boost cookies during that time

[chrome halo]

The status shield on bar 2 entry was set permanently instead of fading after 45 seconds

That means you can't inflict a status from bar 2 onwards

[brisk sapphire]

Oh that's yikes

[heavy sinew]

Silly bug

[rocky oasis]

obnoxious latias clear that took me an hour for some reason

[robust nymph]

Interesting, how hard was this?

My 1/5 Gloria is just rotting away

[wicked tusk]

praying Ball Guy just SOLO-AUTOs Tapu Bulu

i don't want to do this run lmao

[tender horizon]

An hour of resets

[robust nymph]

😭

[rocky oasis]

obnoxiously hard bc you cant afford vigilance or stalwart and are working w/ tighten up 2

sacred sword is useful for dealing w/ evasion if youre lucky and the mudslap doesnt fuck you over

Honestly just toss in a eggmon or smth

you NEED to have enough hp for equake to not pop endurance btw

like 6% left which is RARE

[quaint tartan]

We start hyping bc I know imma do overkill soon bc moltres ew

[bitter gate]

the ethan solo is hell

why

[brisk sapphire]

Ah shoot. The freebie Victor solo against Tapu Bulu has no video

[lost juniper]

He's better on Latias anyways

Bulu is annoying for him with his constant defense buffs

[brisk sapphire]

Oh I didn't see he can solo Latias

Okay that works for me

Wait the doc only has Pal Victor

[chrome halo]

He can't solo Latias, but he can duo with an eggmon

[tender horizon]

Surely not

[chrome halo]

Or a cheap support

[tender horizon]

tell

[chrome halo]

I don't remember the detail

[brisk sapphire]

Oh duo ye I can check that

[gleaming cypress]

anyone figured this out yet

im an idiot and can’t click sing fast enough. anyone who can think this is doable?

[sharp lichen]

how hard is the NC Bianca solo on Moltres? is it better to duo?

[mint osprey]

Sounds like real test of patience with 3 Hail MPR at least

[sharp lichen]

i thought BP Candice doesnt get hail mpr

[gleaming cypress]

she doesn’t

I ran out of gauge and got cooked by heat wave and air cutter

someone reportedly saw this duo in game and tried it

[heavy sinew]

Finally opened the game and caked diantha

She needs it

[thick dawn]

this was also the catalyst of dena making LG 3 weeks

that was so peak

[bitter gate]

Boing

She oneshotted the bar

[hard fiber]

Cool, didn't know she can solo Latias

[heavy sinew]

First try Clemont

[heavy sinew]

I'm doing that one next

Lmao

How bad is it

[sharp lichen]

yeah clemont solo is a lot easier nowadays since his expansion

[heavy sinew]

It wasn't easy since I got def crushed twice

[sharp lichen]

oh

🥸

[heavy sinew]

rock slide and eq was almost the death of me

Now if only I had 4/5 Anni Raihan to beat moltres

[bitter gate]

Mine is exr

It's pretty easy tbh

Just follow ruri's rotation

And she can survive

Just avoid drops mostly

Bada bing @worthy horizon

No pot mprs too

Funnily enough

[golden robin]

any tips for latias?
she was taking 0dmg in phase 2

[sharp lichen]

you need to debuff latias in order to damage her

[arctic citrus]

Who's my best support to take on Moltres one last time (3rd time)?

He burns my team and we're gone

[stuck mantle]

Soo easy🤣

Big bird cant scary veevee

[sharp lichen]

i want to do this run by my eevee is stuck at 3/5 😭

[stuck mantle]

Need 2 note for flinch

[sharp lichen]

yeah

[stuck mantle]

30% is too low for bar 2/3

[sharp lichen]

definetly

currently doing the geeta solo and even then im struggling with bar 2

[sullen stag]

got this clear in my recommended 👀 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTB0WavBD3o

(if only i had kabu 2/5 😔 )

[strong elk]

Is this supposed to be blank?

[sharp lichen]

Bruh

[mint osprey]

Damn, I am not getting much cookies even after hours of auto

This is gonna be rough

[bitter gate]

Streaking gives more cookies

[strong elk]

I’m not seeing a document with teams for this gauntlet

[mint osprey]

I assume as much, so I'm trying to get it up to 12 streaks

[mint osprey]

Gauntlet 8

[sharp lichen]

gauntlet 8 pretty outdated tho ngl

before exr and skill gear

[mint osprey]

Well, can't expect a new batch to be put out like... 8 hours after the event is up

[sharp lichen]

ik

sometimes people have a list of teams they are planning to use for future runs though

[sullen stag]

yeah lol, the mods need to manually update it and if they are in the US its 6 am - 10 am

[arctic citrus]

I need help qwq

[mint osprey]

Try Lana

[raven crane]

Investment?

3/5 ExR?

[bitter gate]

Ye

[lost juniper]

Gotta love NC Bianca not flinching 8 times in a row

I hate this solo

[sharp lichen]

same bruh

this and Geeta

[vestal basin]

going to try to put effort into this guantlet because im utterly out of purple cookies. is 3/5 holiday whitney recommended for the bulu solo or in a team against latias?

[sullen stag]

first solo of the gauntlet yippee

[feral plank]

I'm starting to hate it honestly

[sharp lichen]

whitney is an easy solo for tapu bulu and i dont think shes too great against latias

[feral plank]

F*ck me man

[quaint tartan]

I slapped Geeta on latias

[feral plank]

People get It first solo and i'm struggling with it

[quaint tartan]

Sorry not sorry I’m not even gonna have time to slot all units in 3 weeks so better preserve mental health

[sullen stag]

not first attempt ofc

[sharp lichen]

i spent like an hour on this and i got this far

[feral plank]

I got sst red solo on moltres first try though

[feral plank]

I havent even reached bar 3

[sharp lichen]

bar 2 is the only difficult part

[feral plank]

Geeta just doesnt want to flinch

[sullen stag]

bar 2 kinda sucks for geeta solo

[sharp lichen]

bar 3 you only need 2 flinches

[feral plank]

Or get some mg3

Should i do Bianca solo on moltres or don't think much and just destroy latias?

[vestal basin]

thank you . she has debuffs depending on terrain so thats why i was wondering. i dont have the patience or sanity for rng heavy solos and holiday whitney bulu is one of the few ive done before.

[gleaming cypress]

should i start the solos with sst red on moltres or should I grind cookies first

hmmmm

rng hell but possible

grid

[sharp lichen]

atleast after this LG they wont rerun moltres for a while

[inner turret]

Lol

[karmic willow]

Good starts

[crimson stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-lurking-gif-22179921

[mint osprey]

I'm gonna spend a week farming cookies before considering accumulating streaks

[crimson stratus]

Farm how?

12 streak?

[robust nymph]

Thank you for the review

[robust nymph]

And this is why i won't do it

[feral plank]

Okay , i didn't know moltres had dc2 i just noticed that

[sharp lichen]

are you guys using TL Serena for Tapu Bulu?

[robust nymph]

Yes, solo

[sharp lichen]

wasnt sure if some people duo'd on latias or something

[robust nymph]

But using her on Latias is probably better?

She can solo Latias too i mean

[mint osprey]

You will have to do moltres manually or partial auto

[sharp lichen]

she can but its too rng heavy

[mint osprey]

Yes, it's annoying and no, it can't be helped

[robust nymph]

Oooh, supp porygon?

[karmic willow]

I mean

It has to be

[mint osprey]

TL Serena should be able to solo Bulu even without EX

[sharp lichen]

porygon has swift which has infinite accuracy so it lowers latias evasion on bar 2

[mint osprey]

It's all about getting good evasion rng

[sharp lichen]

i mean mines EX and i was planning on doing the bulu solo

[robust nymph]

Guess i'm just slightly worried about survivability

[sharp lichen]

its suprisingly tanky

[robust nymph]

What's the strat for the nc red team?

[sharp lichen]

plus it has first aid 2

[robust nymph]

I forgot nc red has 1 use of hail as well oops

[heavy sinew]

Sync stack with Lapras, damage control bar 1 to have a sync ready for bar 2, make sure sync does more than half to bird, win

[raven crane]

Full investment C Elesa and who vs Latias?

[heavy sinew]

What about 2/5? She's there

[robust nymph]

Gotcha gotcha

[mint osprey]

I guess we will pool the sleep strat + flinch onto Moltres

[robust nymph]

Moltres still needs weather change before you can sleep it, this is so annoying

[mint osprey]

True, but at least you just 2 weather for sleep clear

[karmic willow]

Oh heyyy

So you do know the strat

Still

A lot of damage needed on sync

[mint osprey]

I remember Egg Tech Lapras being solid for sleep strat since it can heal during hail

[karmic willow]

Ooops wrong one

Ahhh this one

If mg2 does not work your way

Red barely scratches half

Literally 49% situation

It is

An extreme clear so

I do not recommend it to most

[sharp lichen]

plus some extreme skill gears needed too 🫣

[karmic willow]

Just don't lol

[robust nymph]

Those critastrophe stacks 😭 yeah no I'm walking away

[karmic willow]

4/5 nc red just to get all needed titles

[robust nymph]

Thank you for the review

[karmic willow]

I literally laughed my ass off when i got the thing

Like

"THREE?"

[robust nymph]

How many feathers did that take you what the hell

[tender crater]

Any new SS Diantha solos today?

[raven crane]

Brother I would too, you won some kinda lottery.

[dawn plume]

she got latias

as did iris

[rigid hill]

Still can't believe they denied Hydreigon the strike cake

[raven crane]

I can.

She does Sync Acceleration!!! Sprint!!

[rigid hill]

But then actual sprint kits like sneasel: woah we can't let you stack too much acceleration

[dawn plume]

its fine she needed speed

its what was holding her back from latias before lol

[raven crane]

More so annoyed because of other game modes.

It’s fine here.

[lost juniper]

Sneasel was kinda already sprint so it'd be redundant

Support was really good for him

[robust nymph]

Almost everything is fine in LG, at worst they get extra stats which is always appreciated lol

Sprint rolex ss silver would've been too crazy with the sync accels

[brisk sapphire]

So I have a question.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1012311116778586182/1269949159092392011/IMG_1821.png?ex=66b1ebd2&is=66b09a52&hm=a0a3c9ccf28e783b682a14a140f65fed08be8a11d2ef5aecdc96be1bebe921a1&

[raven crane]

Yeah.

[brisk sapphire]

Does this mean technically I can just farm deluxe cookie by doing one battle, reset streak, and repeat?

[raven crane]

Technically. Not feasibly.

[robust nymph]

3* deluxe? Yes, but very low chance

[dawn plume]

very low = 1%

[brisk sapphire]

I will attempt as high streak as I can but if this is an option too then that's great, even at 1%

[robust nymph]

You can go for a 10 streak and reset

[brisk sapphire]

If I can find an easy auto for that then that should do it

[dawn plume]

you realize 1% means you get 1 cookie every 100 clears on average

[brisk sapphire]

I do realize that yes

But it seems to be an easy passive farm lol

[dawn plume]

the average auto clear is like 3-4 minutes

[brisk sapphire]

it's something I can do if I can't sit down and do some high streak clears

[dawn plume]

that is almost 5 hours to get 1 3* cookie

more than 5 hours actually

[rigid hill]

Sprint is usually the worst unless the unit already has lots of sync accel. Give me nearly 2 syncs in a row and it has value

[dawn plume]

and that cookie could very well give you something like vigilance

dont farm only 1 stage if you want 3* cookies

[brisk sapphire]

Like I said, I'm not saying it's viable. Just an alternative farm I can do if I can't sit down and focus on leveling my streak

[sullen stag]

omfg

last wish killed lmao

i was about to reset but i saw it trigger

completely forgot it existed lmao

[brisk sapphire]

Oh that counts? lol

[sullen stag]

yeah lol

[brisk sapphire]

That's funny

[sharp lichen]

i lost a few battles because i forgot last word counts

[sullen stag]

i got random crit brutal swing right at the end of morty bulu and was a little peeved lol

did all of my health obv

ooo 1/5 summer acerola has a latias clear

[lost juniper]

She can do 0/20 but EX is highly recommended

She needs mind games for this clear

[gleaming cypress]

certified bird victim

[sullen stag]

yeah i unfortunately i dont have enough cookies for mind games/defense crush stuff

[brisk sapphire]

What cookies have those?

[lost juniper]

I gave up on the Bianca solo

[hard fiber]

How often Moltres use sunny day?
Like after it's bar drop or something?

[hard fiber]

On Moltres? Same lmaoooooo

[lost juniper]

Shame cause I wanted a 10 solo streak

[gleaming cypress]

what does sst red do on moltres bar 3 if you get there

[brisk sapphire]

5 times.

[hard fiber]

I used Bianca solo on Tapu Bulu instead

[river cliff]

I think I'll probably throw striker golem with her

[hard fiber]

Omg

Nightmare

[brisk sapphire]

At the start, start of 2nd bar, half of 2nd bar, start of 3rd bar, 2nd half of 3rd bar

[lost juniper]

Moltres doesn't use sunny day per se, just sets sun automatically

[hard fiber]

cries

[lost juniper]

Alright, though Latias solo is free

Using her on Bulu is a waste

[hard fiber]

🥲

[sullen stag]

oh wait is mind games/defense crush on non deluxe cookies too?

[dawn plume]

defense crush is

not mind games

gauntlet still doesnt give sprint/field coins when they edited hse to give them zzzzz

[hard fiber]

Yeah field and sprint coins is really lacking

[brisk sapphire]

They really need to fix that

Maybe retroactively fix lodge while they're at it

[feral plank]

Flinch, set terrain again, Max guard and sync

[feral plank]

Also fix that

[dawn plume]

bp rewards too

wow exr makes ss lyra moltres solo easy

lets me not have to grid for mpr

[feral plank]

Time for Nate solo

[feral plank]

It really does

[robust nymph]

@ruby sapphire new challenger

[feral plank]

Altough It still took me around 2 hours because i was lagging due to low battery and too much trash to clean on the phone

[inner turret]

1st clear

[coral summit]

Any good team comps to use for auto battle?

[bright brook]

This is so funny

[karmic willow]

HUH?

I AM SO STEALING THAT

[inner turret]

+6E Kahili
Are you still stealing that

[karmic willow]

Send grids

I will decide if i wanna dump 60k or not

[tight rivet]

wait can og bianca solo moltres or are you talking about nc

[gleaming cypress]

was the 1% natural or from enduring on grid

[gleaming cypress]

what do you think

[inner turret]

Enduring

[heavy sinew]

+6 pmun wtf

[tight rivet]

damn bro idk

[stuck mantle]

Girrafe on lg did it again😎

[river cliff]

Aw nuts

The mid bar flinch cleansing after my staggering procs is driving me crazy

[eternal hill]

Hola. Is there a good team to auto Bulu for cookie farm?

[chrome halo]

[dawn plume]

did all my planned moltres solos (all 2 of them) (ss johto girls)

[gleaming cypress]

nice

[dawn plume]

well

i might do arven solo

but that will have to wait

[raven crane]

Is it?

[lost juniper]

With 3/5? Yeah

[dawn plume]

yeah her latias solo is omega free

piercing blows units should go to latias anyways

only stage that has damage reduction

[raven crane]

Oh Champion.

[raven crane]

Lol.

[karmic willow]

You will never

Convince me to do duo with lodge silver

[near tree]

hey, is there a realistic way to clear these (specifically latias) when i have not many sync pairs and not enough resourses to upgrade them?

[karmic willow]

Lucky skills

[sharp lichen]

How did I get burned in grassy terrain?

I have verdant immunity

[dawn plume]

it must have gone down for a split second

[sharp lichen]

Nah it never went down it’s been up

[mint osprey]

I don't think it's possible. You can freeze hax on Entei, but that damn bird has Freeze Resistance

[dawn plume]

latias has a very specific gimmick you have to debuff it to do damage, check the pins for more info

[raven crane]

Moltres is a cheater, we been knew this.

[sharp lichen]

Dang

[dawn plume]

i've had moltres skip turn queues to unflinch itself and hit me

it def cheats

[sharp lichen]

Happens to me midway at bar 2 all the time

[mint osprey]

Check Gauntlet 8. Should have a f2p list

[mint osprey]

Lessen Flinch 8 is a finicky thing. Not pressing a button is enough for them to recover in split second

Those Regirock clears

[raven crane]

9, no?

[dawn plume]

9 yeah

[karmic willow]

89K sync 2
66k Sync 3

[karmic willow]

Waterfall:

[dawn plume]

40% ew

[mint osprey]

I guess flinchtown is in the menu then

[quaint tartan]

Is there any video for that moltres clear? 👀

[mint osprey]

Ew indeed but we need all the flinch we can get

Just hope you don't need 30% or 20%

[quaint tartan]

Which is gonna be the sentence we’re gonna hear the most in these 3 weeks

[river cliff]

A new member of the 12 solo club

[dawn plume]

yo nice

knew this would be doable

[inner turret]

@sturdy steeple look at your boy

[rigid hill]

Do we get variety selects on anni month?

I really want magnezone

[dawn plume]

we didnt last year

but we did at half anni

so cant say for sure

[sturdy steeple]

YAY THORTON

[rigid hill]

At least we see datamine for what selects coming before I have to lock in my picks on seasonal selects

[dawn plume]

i got thorton from the last variety select he is def very good

love him

[river cliff]

Swiss army knife the unit

[rigid hill]

Yeah I'd go jirachi over fall Roxanne only if I know i can get Thornton right after

[karmic willow]

step 1 flinch

significantly easier at 3/5 with synchro healing

but basically

rain bar 1

bar 2 silver nukes CLEAN with a flinch or confusion from blastoise

i remember doing it back in lg8

or was it lg10

[inner turret]

Now solo Moltres
If there's a Staggering there's a way

[karmic willow]

can't remember but i refuse to do Silver duo

[inner turret]

[karmic willow]

like

you waste so much time

on getting his tm

[quaint tartan]

I was talking about the egg lapras nc red duo

[heavy sinew]

This fucking bird

[quaint tartan]

I guess it’s save red sync for bar 2

[karmic willow]

but bro you pinged me on the

[heavy sinew]

I'm trying sst red

[karmic willow]

clear

dammit

[heavy sinew]

And I can't flinch

[karmic willow]

Do whatever you can to make Red's Sync deal 50% hp on bar 2 entry

if you can somehow do that then it's ggs

[quaint tartan]

Alright I hear it’s mg2 lapras

[karmic willow]

like i had

insane gear

Extra energy

Mind Games 2

3 of that

so i wouldn't recommend it

or youc an

drop a glaceon

easyyyyy

[quaint tartan]

Did you use ww3?

[karmic willow]

cs2

CS2 + Gear + No MG2 barely did 51%

which was just enough

but yeah

ww3 helps

[sharp lichen]

how many spdef drops

[karmic willow]

4/5 +8E minimal

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/3/14400?s=5&l=150&r=5&p=20&a=13016303&g=AAECAwQFBgkMDxARFCUmKSwuLw

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/3/14400?s=5&l=150&r=5&p=20&a=13016303&g=AAECAwQFBgkMDxARFCcpLC4v

[sharp lichen]

is hasty hail necessary?

[karmic willow]

idk if you can kill it without snow shelter though. Like Red does die to his own chip if not kill fast enough.

[karmic willow]

at -3 speed on both, absolutely

even my gear had +30 speed

[sharp lichen]

dang

[karmic willow]

Though

without snow shelter, things might change

idk

but yeah

it is what it is

"can you nuke half bar 2" is the question

but yeah no snow shelter will

screw that clear even more

so i would highly encourage

+4 EXR + 8E

otherwise you can't deal enough without glaceon

super invested clear

[sharp lichen]

how many moltres runs have you done so far?

[inner turret]

After doing this again it felt like Marlon was too much for Larry? Idk, the run went extremely smoothly

[sharp lichen]

what move level larry?

[quaint tartan]

3/5 here

[karmic willow]

I mean

You can downgrade it to

3/5

If you don't want snow shelter

[inner turret]

3 ex r lol

[karmic willow]

But i cannot guarantee him living the chip damage

[sharp lichen]

also just curious, how did you get 4/5 NC Red? did you have him at 2/5 and got 2 in a multi?

[inner turret]

Dailies probably

[sharp lichen]

wish i had that kind of luck tbh

[quaint tartan]

My problem is the egg Lapras literally blowing after bar 0.5 bc no freeze

Flare blitz

Ew

I’m slapping egg glaceon

[karmic willow]

then don't freeze lol

[karmic willow]

best choice

[sharp lichen]

so ur doing glaceon + lapras + nc red?

[karmic willow]

me? nah

[sharp lichen]

bicio

Dang this will work nice for Geeta solo

[bitter gate]

Ye old classic

I thought I could use a cheaper alternative but nah

[cursive briar]

any way to prevent Cerena from using brutal swing during Latias battle? It's so stupid that even without selecting BS nodes/dark nuke she still refuses to use water shuriken AI is so stupid

[heavy sinew]

Finished my break and I cannot get the red solo done

Fml

[bitter gate]

This is as synergistic as it goes

[quaint tartan]

Yup I’ll give it a shot

[karmic willow]

i will do this next

@bitter gate send grids

[inner turret]

Rion maybe you should try other partners before going with Marlon

[karmic willow]

you want to know

what's a good partner for Marlon?

This dumbass right here

[sharp lichen]

i thought leon can solo

[raven crane]

Is Zinnia worth making work on Bulu or should I just consider her as fodder?

Maybe Moltres… But ow.

[karmic willow]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAA

No healing

Dodge Only

he CAN

but will you?

[inner turret]

Zinnia Winona go

[karmic willow]

save max move for bar 3 is an absolute must

[sharp lichen]

oh its one of those things lol

[raven crane]

But Winona go to birb..!

[karmic willow]

and then some

[inner turret]

Yes

[sharp lichen]

i mean you can probably duo with an eggmon in that case right?

[inner turret]

To birb

[karmic willow]

i mean

[raven crane]

[karmic willow]

would you want to?

[worthy horizon]

lol i'd bench zinnia

[karmic willow]

i sure as hell don't

[river cliff]

Zinnia could go to Bulu just to make use of a sun eggmon

[worthy horizon]

maybe use her in some trio

winona is dedicated to moltres and she doesn't really want zinnia there

[raven crane]

Maybe I’ll make Zinnia a trio.

[worthy horizon]

and who tf knows how to duo with zinnia without winona

[raven crane]

Lmfao.

Didn’t read this.

[karmic willow]

oh riiight

quick question

fall allister

where to send him?

bulu solo?

also colress

lawl

@sturdy steeple i see that Holiday skyla and calem duo on bulu lmfao

truly an LG8 moment

[worthy horizon]

surprised kabu/blaine got lowered to 2/5 and +0e but then i looked at my lucky skills and i had vigilance on blaine

[covert wave]

@lost juniper so she needs to be ex and caked to solo
And 3/5

[worthy horizon]

kinda makes more sense to run sunny disposition and cs2 but low acc on fire spin sucks

[karmic willow]

okay so

guys

I'd need a recommendation

[lost juniper]

Yeah, and it's a pain even then

[karmic willow]

N + BP Clemont

[covert wave]

@worthy horizon what are these spread sheets at jc

[karmic willow]

vs Latias

cooked or no?

[worthy horizon]

what

[karmic willow]

@sturdy steeple Should I do this

I mean, not like i'd have anywhere else to dump N right?

[worthy horizon]

uh there are a bunch of important spreadsheets in pins

[stuck mantle]

Not only time make this solo🤣

[worthy horizon]

scroll down a few posts

[stuck mantle]

Jesus 1 miss wood hammer its realy annoing get

[sharp lichen]

Bro finally

[timid laurel]

For a brief moment, Im top 7 in the world 😅

All monotype teams

[past pagoda]

how do i do this

[karmic willow]

curative confusion

rosa has accuracy buffs so

it should be easy for her

[sullen stag]

is it worth doing SS Steven on Moltres or should i just use him on latias instead

[past pagoda]

Do you have a grid? as well as help?

cause i dunno how exactly to play it

[arctic citrus]

Improvisation is key

[dawn plume]

both of those solos suck

i would use steven in a duo vs moltres

downside up + flinches are too good vs moltres to skip over

[kind imp]

[past pagoda]

thank you

[sullen stag]

used all my 2 star crunchy cookies and got 0 defense crush yayy

ofc my 2nd 1 star gave me it lmao

[worthy horizon]

note that dc2 along with ft2 and mad strength are in the 1* deluxe pool so you can get all those from farming lg

just not stoic

the odds end up being only about 1% lower than in 2* crunchy too

[heavy sinew]

We have to not sync until bar 2?

[kind imp]

Idk

That's 0/20 too, ex should have more leeway

[river cliff]

Took forever to upload
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rvxjQF0QxVw

[tender horizon]

Who else wants to be lazy this LG

I dont want to reset for flinch game Moltres

[inner turret]

Probably me

Tho I need

[tender horizon]

Why u "need"

[inner turret]

I have like none

[tender horizon]

U will get many 5 star PU when u pull for anni units

[kind imp]

Me

[karmic willow]

@inner turret gimem that kahili grid pls

[inner turret]

I already sent it

When you asked

[karmic willow]

hmmm

need to chekc again

thanks

[bright brook]

congrats lol, this is also a solo that i have been attempting for a really long time, came close once or twice but was all frozen by the last bar ice beam :<

[sullen stag]

did the non EX'd xerneas latias solo yayy

[dawn plume]

oh i need to do that

[sharp lichen]

which of the 2 jasmine grids are reccomended for tapu bulu solo?

[karmic willow]

wait she can solo bulu?

[worthy horizon]

ms imo

[karmic willow]

Interesting

[bright brook]

mad strength

[karmic willow]

yeah i'll just do it and another sp.atk buffer

[dawn plume]

i always avoided it cuz dont wanna take vigilance off but i have him overcap now

[karmic willow]

maybe something like

vulpix

[sharp lichen]

yeah her grid expansion lets her buff crit and its huge tbh

[dawn plume]

and lucky skill slots

[river cliff]

Thanks, somehow my syncs aways lined up with when I'd get frozen in other failed attempts but then I'd die to flinch luck

[tender horizon]

Ok as a matter of fact i shall do triple teams until i run out of Moltres, then i will call it a day

Maybe some solos on Latias and Bulu if theyre easy

Like nc blue

[worthy horizon]

meanwhile i'm on hour 3 of this lysandre solo xd

[sullen stag]

is there a reason why the SSSteven moltres solo uses Disarm 9 on grid?

[worthy horizon]

streak stays at 0 until i get it

[bright brook]

to flinchlock easier

[sullen stag]

oh interesting

[quaint tartan]

Same

Those new dc units aren’t gonna ex themselves

[river cliff]

Facts

[quaint tartan]

I’m trying to come up with cheap teams for 1/5 dc units

Only one I have now is 1/5 grusha ex 1/5 dc gladion on latias

And I still have to test it

[inner turret]

Just flinch 5head

[worthy horizon]

[dawn plume]

aint no way

[lost juniper]

How I got this lucky in the Moltres solo with Bianca I have no idea

Got so many times to Bar 3 but she can't flinch to save her life

She drives me crazy

[worthy horizon]

i got the lysandre solo on moltres the first run i tried with 3 mprs (after a whole day of testing a bunch of other stuff)

i think i might have gotten over 10 of those starts by now

i do not know how i survived a flinch in that run

[lost juniper]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/9201/63500?s=4&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=18040702&g=AAECAwQFBggLDRAVFhwfLC4x&x=true
The CIris solo didn't use any 5/5 nodes and 2 energy was on grid so if anyone wants to lower it to 4 exr +8e they likely can

[stuck mantle]

Use cake on iris? No thanks🤣

I even forgot this unit exist

[lost juniper]

You probably have her 5/5 anyways so you can't lower that solo anyways

[worthy horizon]

gg ez

[dawn plume]

if i accidentally get an iris dupe one day i might try it

but i'm not going out of my way for it

[true tartan]

[worthy horizon]

just don't get crit by brave bird or fire blast or hurricane or too many times in a short period and don't get flinched

[heavy sinew]

W invert

[worthy horizon]

and don't get bad mgr luck

[karmic willow]

FINALLY

[quaint tartan]

1/5 ex both

[karmic willow]

cool

(pun intended)

[quaint tartan]

Ft2 gladion whatever grusha bc you’re gonna block the 2 sure crits anyway

[stuck mantle]

Chase can live eq crit if have cirle up on it barrely

But then need flinch/miss so can surive first 5-7 moves

If not flinch eq still he live i try it now

[graceful folio]

already on the grind buddy

[karmic willow]

OH YEAH

HOW DID I FORGET ABOUT GRUSHA

there's a team to be made for grusha vs moltress

i just know it

[worthy horizon]

ye imperv and flinch and zone and fire guard

def something you could do

[karmic willow]

i wanna say Hala

but lol no

[sullen stag]

i hate moltres 😭

this is a horrible gauntlet to try and get a lot of clears with for me

[heady merlin]

Huh, never done more than 13 wins in LG, now that I want to try the 100 wins, I understand why I hated this game mode 😭🙏🏻

[karmic willow]

what can i say than

you both chose

poorly

[heady merlin]

Lmao, Moltres’s nightmare

[sullen stag]

i want deluxe lucky cookies 😭

i havent been able to get far in the LGs since i started because lack of pairs etc

and now that i want to they throw a chicken at me

[karmic willow]

don't worry

next time it will be latios trust

[sullen stag]

yippee!

inb4 our first raikou

[feral plank]

Bro Steven doesnt want to flinch, i havent got past 1st half bar in moltres

[sullen stag]

i dont have the patience for that steven solo lmao

geeta wasnt too bad since the damage was good

[sturdy steeple]

Thank you for reminding me about DC units lmao

[quaint tartan]

Always a pleasure

[sullen stag]

i just did a 1/5 nc silver and dc nemona clear

struggling on teams for moltres

[worthy horizon]

i am actually concerned over geeta since i never got a clear in practice lol

even though i just did something that has to be way harder

[sullen stag]

its literally just spam rock slide and pray lol

2nd bar kinda sucks since not super effective

wouldnt it technically also be possible for 1/5 geeta clear

[worthy horizon]

technically

[quaint tartan]

3 weeks are nothing to streak nowdays
Especially with the damn chicken around

[graceful folio]

you can say it loud

in a day just did 1 clear

[sullen stag]

next LG i'll have every hall of fame completed which means i'll have more upgrade materials yippee

this might be a 12 streak only for me lmao

[tender horizon]

U said u not doing streak

[inner turret]

I wanted to try

I stopped trying

[karmic willow]

sc lillie is a lie sometimes 😦

like

i cannot flinch at alll

[sullen stag]

LA's are immue to fissure right lol

[karmic willow]

no?

it's never the case

[sullen stag]

no as in they are immune or arent immune ...

[void aspen]

Moltres is weather or flinch indefinitely right?

[worthy horizon]

yea

[sullen stag]

1/5 volo and Lillie duo was pretty fun ngl

for latias

[untold whale]

best solo for ball guy?

[lost juniper]

They aren't

[sullen stag]

when is the volo 14/14 solos :))

[lost juniper]

Still dies to Moltres

Well fissure solos don't count since they aren't replicable

[lost juniper]

Latias

[worthy horizon]

anything that can debuff a lot or remove latias's buffs should go to latias

bulu is the easiest by far so there's always plenty of options there

[untold whale]

should i pick up vigilance and impervious on grid for ball guy

[lost juniper]

Unless like NC Bianca or Blue they're better on Moltres

[worthy horizon]

tru

if it can properly handle moltres it goes to moltres

[lost juniper]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/28200/59100?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=18046402&g=AAECAwQFERQXGBobHB8iJSgrLQ

Take this grid

Extremely easy with mind games

[untold whale]

thanks

[wispy cloud]

does anyone have a grid for Chase solo Latias?

[worthy horizon]

grids are in the solo doc but here's a direct link https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/27900/2500?s=5&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=18040702&g=AAECAwQFCgsMFxgZGx4fLC0u&x=true

[wispy cloud]

thank you!

[quaint tartan]

3/5 Avery ex 3/5 nysabrina ex

No ex role

Btw Avery hits like a truck, completely unexpected

[lost juniper]

I unironically want 1/5 Avery purely so his hail could set up for someone on Moltres

[heavy sinew]

Avery

[karmic willow]

same

don't we all

[lost juniper]

If Anni wouldn't be this close I'd have thrown a yolo multi but I can't afford

[heavy sinew]

14k gems

Should I yolo an Avery multi

[worthy horizon]

nope

[sullen stag]

anyone have easy moltres duo recommendations lol

[lost juniper]

No

[hallow gull]

Me with 0 gems rn

[lost juniper]

There's a chance one of the anni units will solo Moltres

[hallow gull]

So sad that i love the 🧱 pokemon

And will pity it soon

[lost juniper]

We had it in pretty much all annis asixe from 3.5 for 2 years

[hallow gull]

Avery can only sets hail 1 times right ?

[true tartan]

2

if invested

[hallow gull]

[quaint tartan]

No

[quaint tartan]

2 if 2/5

But he has to get to 50% hp

[sullen stag]

why do eggmons also want 20 4* power ups

[worthy horizon]

usually they don't

[sullen stag]

oh, is that just egg gyarados?

[worthy horizon]

maybe

[sturdy steeple]

tech gyara is like undoubtedly the best eggmon so ppl usually boost it to 5*, but its not necessary

[karmic willow]

hell, 20/20 even

[graceful folio]

i have a 5* tech farfetch'd does that count

[karmic willow]

for some

[graceful folio]

[karmic willow]

yes

[graceful folio]

love that eggmon

[karmic willow]

aight

time for my 18th clear

with lodge morty on auto

that's SIX moltress clears so far

none of 'em were easy

@sturdy steeple so, ss acerola and steven vs moltress?

and like

any tips with sc hilda?

i'm doing sc hilda and bp morty

[quaint tartan]

SShilda tech alaka was the classic

Iirc

With hilda tanking like a champ

[karmic willow]

yeah

that clear is in my mind but

maybe i can swap around

and let ss lana go with bp morty

[quaint tartan]

Bp Morty is more valuable imo

[karmic willow]

helps that her defensive stats are dawg

[quaint tartan]

Sslana can go with will

[karmic willow]

you forgot about

bede

nc bede

i did that old lg8 clear from naomi lmfao

and well

if it works

it works

will actually gets value of being an attacker

[worthy horizon]

3 rafas in a row

[karmic willow]

imagine 6

my feelings when i used that

[sturdy steeple]

i was gonna try like aerodactyl with sshilda now that she had support cake but we shall see

[karmic willow]

what's his name

[karmic willow]

oh i was

actually talking about

SC Hilda

[sturdy steeple]

oh her

[karmic willow]

mb

XD

[sturdy steeple]

any flincher and pray

[karmic willow]

sc hilda gets enough speed

and well

maybe aerodactly

like you said

because rock combos

wow

crit wood hammer

right as i was about to win against bulu with lodge morty

classic

[sturdy steeple]

youd probably want someone with defensive buffs and regen because schilda bar 2 is not fun

[karmic willow]

i mean even if it didn't crit i would stil die

[karmic willow]

BP morty it is

or

idk

i mean she got impervious but

that doesn't change anything

[worthy horizon]

bp morty can enable wake as the main damage dealer under sun

[sturdy steeple]

bp morty is a bit expensive for her but who cares

[dawn plume]

"expensive but who cares" is the moltres motto

[karmic willow]

you're goddamned right

also

imagine just

checking in on your lodge morty

he got flinched THREE TIMES

i hate zen headbutt bulu is a scam

[karmic willow]

HUH?

you got a comp for that?

[worthy horizon]

ya

[karmic willow]

tell

is it like

morty wake and

something?

also you got that lysandre and quaxly clear on video yet?

[worthy horizon]

working on it

i have 0 trios planned

[karmic willow]

you wanna do a trio?

cobalion

Lodge silver

and blastoise tech

thank me later

[worthy horizon]

nty

[karmic willow]

[karmic willow]

ft2 and flameproof?

[worthy horizon]

yep

[karmic willow]

still

2 flinchers one team

yikes

[worthy horizon]

is worth it

wake can't get his innate reliably without second flincher

and i tried loads of comps with wake

[karmic willow]

alright i trust you fam

[feral plank]

I can't believe i got this before geeta or ss Steven solo

[karmic willow]

??????

Oh yeah

skill gears can make it easier now

[feral plank]

Yea they do

Still only 1 potion mpr

[worthy horizon]

yeah i'm fine keeping naomi on there

[feral plank]

Yea don't try it sandstorm mprs are hell, although this took me less than 20 mins with some resets

[dawn plume]

ingos new grid tiles make it a bit easier too

if hes more than 3/5

[feral plank]

Mine's only 3/5

A field role for ingo wouldn't be bad honestly

2/5 ingo would be very benefited

[worthy horizon]

if they make it sandstorm

bc the default would actually be ground zone

[dawn plume]

it'd be ground zone yeah

[feral plank]

It still benefits him

[jade ore]

being able to set 2 kinds of field effects is nice enough

[feral plank]

Yeah

[lost juniper]

Would make him good for HSE too

Many ground units like sand

[dawn plume]

every poke fair support that's gotten a retroactive EX role has gotten sprint or field

so its likely

granted thats like. 5 of them lol

[worthy horizon]

i would definitely massively prefer sandstorm field if that was an option

[dawn plume]

wtf more than half of all poke fair supports have been released in the past year

[feral plank]

That's actually a pretty good point, ground zone and sandstorm in hse would be incredible

[dawn plume]

this is not something i realized

[feral plank]

Yeah, if you are not doing solos 2/5 would be massively good

[worthy horizon]

ingo/hapu on terrakion and the solo on moltres are quite the nightmare as is

[feral plank]

Yea

This wasnt that bad , i was honestly just praying for sand mpr, rest was okay

Now without more moltres solos i can get to 17 solos, still have to try geeta and ss Steven more

Adaman and a flincher should be enough for moltres right?

[worthy horizon]

i attempted the ingo solo before and it took me many days to get that done that time lol

[feral plank]

Now that my adaman IS 3/5 i'm not using him in bulu

[worthy horizon]

though it should be quite a bit easier now

[wicked tusk]

lets see if geeta will auto-solo moltres

[feral plank]

More like auto die

[lost juniper]

AI is stupid so she dies

[wicked tusk]

aha, so true fellow discorder

[wicked tusk]

she can't fast-queue RIP

[lost juniper]

Palentines Bea could've had a chance if AI would know to preserve hail for half bars

[wicked tusk]

maybe she can get lucky with RNG flinch?

[lost juniper]

Like that's the only thing stopping an auto run

[wicked tusk]

nvm

[lost juniper]

Good luck surviving 10 turns against Moltres in the sun

[worthy horizon]

yeah ai knowing when to set weather would enable a ton

[lost juniper]

In auto

[wicked tusk]

flinches
still moves

what did moltres mean by this

[lost juniper]

THISSSSS

[wicked tusk]

😭

[lost juniper]

Why they have it

I hate it so much

[wicked tusk]

sunny sure hit

[lost juniper]

Moltres is the worst by far

[wicked tusk]

ong

[lost juniper]

Like it's not even close

[heavy sinew]

I wish all Lessen Flinch 9 bosses a very die

[lost juniper]

Terrakion is nothing compared to it

[worthy horizon]

yep

I'd fight Torn any day over Moltres

[feral plank]

Why is there not a moltres gif

[lost juniper]

@ Maelmc

[karmic willow]

sure is good when

i can auto lodge morty

[wicked tusk]

i have no clue lool

[worthy horizon]

sst red and nc blue can auto solo tornadus

[karmic willow]

because no way in hell am i doing that solo properly

[worthy horizon]

meanwhile they can't even trio moltres

[feral plank]

It Will never be close, tornadus and terrakion are the closest and they aren't even that stupidly broken

[karmic willow]

wait really?

[worthy horizon]

yea
