Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[heavy sinew]

Real

[lost juniper]

Just beat Moltres now

Agreed

[worthy horizon]

i ended up using mortal spins for bar 2

[dawn plume]

it was annoying but steven solo wouldve been even worse

[worthy horizon]

between flinches

[dawn plume]

potionchu having endure makes it better than other potion users

for moltres at least

[raven crane]

How tough is it?

[dawn plume]

kinda average difficulty

no crazy rng needed but you have to never get nat crit

cuz u need to run grass guard

which is easier said than done sometimes

[raven crane]

I'll put it in "maybe."

[dawn plume]

this grid

[raven crane]

Thanks buddy.

[brave kestrel]

Any team for moltres clear ?

[worthy horizon]

stick a couple rain units and a water unit in there and try that

[heavy sinew]

3% off

died to flare blitz cause geeta didnt flinch the last move

[sharp lichen]

Who are you guys pairing Winona with for Moltres?

[worthy horizon]

rion got phoebe working earlier

[heavy sinew]

og?

[bitter gate]

Yes

[worthy horizon]

yes

[bitter gate]

I tried egg pidgeot

Too much variance

Phoebe is still difficult enough

Lol

It's not like you're gonna throw Phoebe with anything else anyway

Sad part of loving a waifu whose not that viable

[sharp lichen]

What are the specs of the run?

[heavy sinew]

complain to win is a true combo confirmed

[bitter gate]

Tldr sync with Phoebe until the first bar dies, sync with winona opening bar 2

Kill it before half bar

And repeat it with the last rain dance on bar 3

[sharp lichen]

Dang Winona that powerful?

[bitter gate]

I ran witty hit on Winona and MG2 on Phoebe

It requires a lot of precision

And she has a 60% stun so

[sharp lichen]

Does WW3 work for Winona

[bitter gate]

Would not recommend unless you're willing to expand her

[sharp lichen]

Ah

I’m out of bronze deluxe cookies so I can’t do it then rip

[bitter gate]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/4200/27900?s=5&l=140&r=3&p=0&a=0&g=AAECAwQFBgcJDA8QHSAhIg

Technically

You can do this

So I think it's fine

Just run WW

[raven crane]

Sounds like too much RNG to be worthwhile for myself, grats though.

[bitter gate]

Just that gauge might be a bit tighter

Without MGR

Is this suboptimal

Idk why I get the strangest feeling

There's a cheaper way to do this

[raven crane]

Investment?

[bitter gate]

3/5 ex

[raven crane]

Yoink.

My Adaman and Irida are maxed, bar energy.

And they’re both going to the birb.

[heavy sinew]

imagine having adaman

and irida

maxed

[raven crane]

My goats.

[sturdy steeple]

It's good

[river cliff]

I struggle to think of a worse "viable" flincher for Moltres

[karmic willow]

so

good news

almost 50 clears done

bad news

i'm tired af

selene solo is cringe i am not taking another goddamned wood hammer crit

[dawn plume]

i am at 29, only solos on both bulu and latias so far but i'm struggling on moltres (surprise surprise)

all my old moltres runs moved to trios already cuz i hate moltres but i can def be cheaper...

frustrating

[lost juniper]

I only did 3 Moltres solos before switching to duos

I don't have the cake role for Jacq and I ain't doing the Geeta solo

[karmic willow]

so who did you duo with

also

gonna duo kakuna with nc bianca

i am NOT wasting more time

[lost juniper]

So far, only SSSteven and Potionchu

I'm at 13 clears rn

Guess why

[karmic willow]

is it

(i'm pretending to be shocked)

https://tenor.com/view/colonel-colonel-sanders-dancing-queen-dancingcolonel-kfc-gif-12963709

[lost juniper]

Yup

NC Bianca solo and this duo took me the whole day

[karmic willow]

a clear sign to add kakuna

[shy sinew]

in case anyone’s wondering how my farm is going I started below 200 of these

[lost juniper]

I was stubborn af

[karmic willow]

i went through the hell known as Elio and BP Karen

without kakuna

[lost juniper]

It was for my pride

[karmic willow]

so

time to add

-1 fodder for sleep chain

but

[dawn plume]

wow i got OMEGA LUCKY with bianca huh

[karmic willow]

+1 clear on moltress

[dawn plume]

i got that solo 2nd try once i switched to the berserker grid

[lost juniper]

I hate Elio + BP Karen duo so much

[raven crane]

Literally same.

[karmic willow]

it is what it is

[dawn plume]

meanwhile i tried jasmine on bulu for like 4 hours and finally gave up

[lost juniper]

Berserker grid is so much easier

[karmic willow]

you wanna know

who i don't look forward to doing?

friggin

[lost juniper]

Though with Kakuna it doesn't matter too much since I saw nao clear with the old grid

[karmic willow]

ss hilbert

my god

it's gonna take forever for me

also

i hate alt leon solo

like

YOU WANNA KNOW HOW MANY MOVES I MISSED

ToT

@sturdy steeple props to you for doing the hop solo without tech magnemite

i can't

like yeah the tech onix and nc silver one is understandable but

[sharp lichen]

Are you supposed to nuke at 2nd bar?

[karmic willow]

my god i hate the hop clear. 6 screeches at minimum for that

and then grass guard to completely screw over bulu

[sturdy steeple]

hop solo is easy now

[karmic willow]

yeah

it is

but i still hate it

[sturdy steeple]

i gave up on that one

so annoying

[karmic willow]

like

the timing

friggin

[sturdy steeple]

i kept losing to the dumbest things

[karmic willow]

urgh

[karmic willow]

no mpr? reset

dodge? you lose

forget to block the dragon pulse with max move? you lose

flinch? reset

it's so assssss

i swear

thank god we have more disposable mons this season

[hollow ether]

any SS steven solo moltres?

or do duo instead?

[karmic willow]

please add a pot pikachu

sincerely, the people who got roasted by that chicken

[sharp lichen]

Who are you planning to use Winona with?

[karmic willow]

probably lodge Rosa fr

they good together, rosa nukes bar 2 hard

[sharp lichen]

Gotcha

[karmic willow]

that reminds me

[hollow ether]

yeah i got roasted, still in bar 1

[karmic willow]

i'll have to do that for my 50th clear too

shiiiiii

[sharp lichen]

Do what for your 50th clear?

Winona and TL Rosa?

[karmic willow]

y u p

just did my 49th

soooo

the time is now

still

idk

feeling like it might be a waste

the main issue here is

idk if Rosa can nuke clean bar 2 or not

i mean i trust my waifu but

[dawn plume]

on moltres?

[karmic willow]

yeah

[dawn plume]

she should quite easily nuke bar 2

[karmic willow]

oh who am i kidding

i gave her +10E a long time ago

[bitter gate]

She won't oneshot it

Use the sync first

Flinch till half bar then kill it

Also why has Bulu both critted or dropped spdrf every game

But never misses zen headbutt

[pearl beacon]

I fi ished 1/5 Vlorelei with -5 spdef

[heavy sinew]

How are y'all so ahead, I'm like at clear 10 and struggling with the fucking bird

[chrome halo]

same

[worthy horizon]

prep and not starting with the most rng heavy stuff

i'm at 14

[pearl beacon]

take it easy no need to rush

Moltres will be a run killer anyway

[mint osprey]

The real pain it is to farm those 3-star deluxes

[chrome halo]

me stucking on Whitney SS Acerola duo for hours

sending sos signal

[karmic willow]

well

[chrome halo]

[karmic willow]

good news

even with ONE sync buff

Rosa dealt

89%

it's not even fair

alright imma need

some talks

because

[sharp lichen]

Nah it’s the 1-star deluxe cookies which suck

[karmic willow]

as of right now

winona feels like a waste

3 weathers

i play like i only need 2

[shy sinew]

nah I care less about those, all my DC pairs that want HS1 already have it

[karmic willow]

@sturdy steeple thoughts tho

on winona

like

[sharp lichen]

Support quaxly eggmon?

[karmic willow]

ss lysandre:

rosa does not need speed

[sharp lichen]

Blastoise?

[karmic willow]

funnily enough

blastoise used

[heavy sinew]

how bad is Klara on Latias

[karmic willow]

rosa is not a good main flincher

[heavy sinew]

Bar 2 is an issue

Or maybe I'm not doing stuff right at the beginning

[sharp lichen]

Rosa needs rain and flinches which Winona provides

Have you used Nessa yet?

[karmic willow]

you know what

i still have nessa

and what's his name available

[sturdy steeple]

barry cause i aint using him elsewhere

[karmic willow]

gyarados

[karmic willow]

on Bulu?

or

[sturdy steeple]

winona barry vs moltres

[karmic willow]

holy hell

wait

base barry?

[worthy horizon]

barry can nuke

[karmic willow]

REALLY>

like

i mean yeah but

how do you even play bar 2

[sturdy steeple]

kill it

[karmic willow]

he nukes clean then it;s easy

hmmm

then what to do with lodge Rosa...

[dawn plume]

have u considered hitting moltres really hard

[karmic willow]

Y E S

[sturdy steeple]

quaxly with rosa

[heavy sinew]

how do you win

[pearl beacon]

LG in a nutshell

[heavy sinew]

with quax and rosa

[karmic willow]

you know what

forget all this thinking

[sturdy steeple]

i think i run stoic on quaxly

[karmic willow]

winona rosa here we go

[chrome halo]

how tight is that duo? i'm afraid that Quax doesn't last long
because flinch always tries to piss me off

[chrome halo]

[heavy sinew]

Zamn

[sturdy steeple]

bar 2 did need a sync + razor shell

[bitter gate]

Am I the only person who threw Winona with a support rather than an abuser

[heavy sinew]

ex rosa is

/hj

[chrome halo]

offensive Winona
based

[sturdy steeple]

i ex'd her last gauntlet finally and it was worth it

[chrome halo]

[dawn plume]

may/hapu requires dodges huh

[sturdy steeple]

(gonna regret all these random lodge exes when we get 10 new exable supports next update)

[sharp lichen]

How does quaxly even live that long

[karmic willow]

AND DONE

[dawn plume]

if hapu doesnt dodge heat wave she is 🪦

[karmic willow]

PERFECT

[sturdy steeple]

stoic quax

[karmic willow]

we are so back

[sturdy steeple]

you get some decent flinch luck with rosa

[karmic willow]

i missed my sync crit bar 2

but it doesn't matter

rosa just SHREDS

[sharp lichen]

Does quaxly just need to live long enough for bar 3 rain dance

[chrome halo]

yes methinks

[sturdy steeple]

as long as possible ideally since you still want it to take attacks

rosa aint that bulky

[chrome halo]

thanks for the idea nao, now i can pair Winona with SS Grimsley

he is so cringe

[karmic willow]

ex'ing the best girl is based

[karmic willow]

oh yeah that too

[sturdy steeple]

oh my god i forgot to plan ssgrim

[karmic willow]

DAMMIT

i forgot about him

but nah

[chrome halo]

[karmic willow]

it's for Rosa so

it's not wasted

[sturdy steeple]

(i was tryna cook stuff with him in non sun teams but it wasnt working)

[karmic willow]

baybeeee

[sturdy steeple]

(deleted him and forgot to readd)

[karmic willow]

solo bulu

[heavy sinew]

Everyone does

[sturdy steeple]

i love him tho,,,

[heavy sinew]

I don't think a lot of people remembered him last time entei appeared

I surely didn't

[chrome halo]

pray for his grid expansion being on the same level with Krís

no one remembers him since Kris' grid expansion

[heavy sinew]

blind spot and another aggravation tile (?)

[worthy horizon]

i definitely attempted to find something for him but also came up unsuccessful

[karmic willow]

great now i need more

ideas

i still think

bp barry

is too good to be on bulu solo

he can carry a gauge hungry pair

and shocking slowdown does help with latias

i am considering duoing him with something like summer N....

[karmic willow]

planning and

doing duos

like i only did ingo solo recently

2nd try or something

most of the time was spent on rolling gears and just

thinking "why am i still here"

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sad-why-why-are-we-still-here-just-to-suffer-gif-17485467

on my way to

auto with lodge morty again

[worthy horizon]

og morty could auto bulu in theory with stoic

wonder how long that'd take on avg

[karmic willow]

nah i'd ft2

also

man

the list of ghost clears i can do right now

lodge morty

NY Dawn with Gengar Support (I am not doing the solo)

SC Lillie + Shauntal

Morty

acerola solo moltress too

and not to mention allister once i have op gear

[bitter gate]

Safety tether

Is a balanced passive

Mfw I want to do the Bulu solo with Barry but Barry also has decent anti Moltres stuff

[karmic willow]

ah

friggin LOVE IT

when i almost won

and wood hammer hits

[karmic willow]

yeah

and latias too

[worthy horizon]

bp barry gets stalwart unbending and speeding sun with synthesis boost but his para spam is slow under sun

i don't think that's quite enough for moltres tbh

when it ruins the one main thing he has going for him

[bitter gate]

I'm running out of solos

[dawn plume]

i did bp barry bulu solo

its prob his best use this lg

[heavy sinew]

Richu you live these

[brisk sapphire]

Time to attempt this later

[dawn plume]

its a little weird

you need 2 tm mprs

3 at the start and 1 to eat bar 2 crit seed bomb

and enter bar 3 w a sync ready

thats the biggest tips

[brisk sapphire]

Oh thanks. I'll keep that in mind

[dawn plume]

if you get unlucky w crits you can bank on synthesis mprs

my winning run didnt need any though

[brisk sapphire]

Oh what LS did you use

[dawn plume]

grass guard

[karmic willow]

@sturdy steeple

real talk

what do you think about ghetsis and mespirit

on latias

good or waste?

[pearl pawn]

My sync and max move didn’t crit 👍

[karmic willow]

god it's so strange just using a synchro healer in a non-trio clear

[rocky oasis]

for anyone trying the allister solo

bar1 is so obnoxious

[karmic willow]

yup

[rocky oasis]

you cant afford to get flinched

[karmic willow]

you got that right

[rocky oasis]

ever

and you cant afford to get crit

at all

at least bar 2 is relatively easy

and bar 3 needs to 80% crit rolls

[heavy sinew]

Might as well duo

[brisk sapphire]

Okay I'll try this. Thanks

[pearl pawn]

Got to final bar!

[drifting talon]

I'm struggling with the Lisa and Oak duo vs Latias. Oak seems to die too quickly and is too slow

[pearl beacon]

Need to roll few stuff eith his TM
Are you getting Evasion/Def?

[karmic willow]

Awww yeah

[gleaming cypress]

who is rafa and why do we call missed crits "rafa'd"

[karmic willow]

Just did

Ss hilbert and butterfree

The theme skills

The easy damage and setup

Loving these 4 so far

[pearl beacon]

He's a solo tryharder that usually got an insane amount of sync crit fails to ruin his solos
That's why we call missed sync crit "getting Rafa'd"
Cirrently not on server

[drifting talon]

Ohh I didn't consider getting defense buffs

[bitter gate]

Sigh

Every time I get into second bar

[river cliff]

Using a sleeper on hilbert seems like a waste since he could do it with something like Venomoth or Wigglytuff

[bitter gate]

I miss 3 times in a row

Without acc debuffs

And he gets to +6

Zzz

[pearl beacon]

Zen headbutt, half bar2 and Bar3 sure crit EQ are something
So better be equipped for those
Also latias got DC1, which is infamous
That's why having some def buff is great

*and Flygon

[pearl pawn]

That darn psychic

[gleaming cypress]

does anyone here plan to attempt the will latias solo

[karmic willow]

how did you even make it to bar 3

damn

that -5 acc

i had to throw in a whole marlon

[gleaming cypress]

new solo??

[worthy horizon]

i think will is going to be my adaman flincher

for moltres

[thick dawn]

hitting the 50 mark :>

[chrome halo]

hi did you sync with Acerola from bar 2 onwards?

i'm really struggling to make the duo work, since Whitney refuses to flinch everytime

[pearl beacon]

why whitney

[river cliff]

I think I might have synced once with Whitney on bar 2 and once at the end, but I would probably have just kept it to the one at the end if I were to do it again

Also BP Zinnia is pretty cringe with SS Acerola it turns out, might have to throw in Seaking or something

[dawn plume]

i would open the leaderboard and steal your teams if opening the leaderboard didnt crash my game

[karmic willow]

okay now i need to know

what's the grid used for that elio clear

and how did you do it

that team doesn't have crit so

i'm assuming roark tm takes cares of things as he one shots bar 3

[chrome halo]

i keep syncing with Whitney from bar 2 onwards, but she fails to flinch every move

curiously, how long did it take for you to clear with the duo?

[river cliff]

One try lol

I didn't think I had gotten THAT lucky but maybe I had haha

[chrome halo]

wth

[karmic willow]

Okay so

When do you do

B move

And sync order?

Also quag who do you plan to use ghetsis with?

On latias

I am kinda stuck between mespirit and cheryl tbh

[thick dawn]

im gonna upload soon

[karmic willow]

Hit team sp.atk 9 is wild

[thick dawn]

oh so that's wrong lol

its atk obviously

[karmic willow]

Yeah ik ik

Can't wait for vid

[thick dawn]

for ghetsis idk yet

[karmic willow]

And finally putting down 100k orbs after almost piting that brickmon

[worthy horizon]

can't get 4* support pory to work with 2/5 exr larry so i'd want to use him with cheren

but i also want to use ghetsis with cheren

should find something else for larry maybe

[robust nymph]

what move level is ss acerola? i only have her 1/5 so i might just put her to bulu

[river cliff]

3/5

The healing helps a lot

[chrome halo]

don't do that duo

[bitter cave]

my f2p team are so under invested compare to what he have on f2p guide 🥲

[chrome halo]

i have tried it for 5 hours

[river cliff]

Holy

Sounds like my Geeta solo attempts

[chrome halo]

[river cliff]

[chrome halo]

if only Whitney had EX...

i even got the perfect bracelet for Whitney

[river cliff]

She'll go nuts when she does

[chrome halo]

Whitney... please

flinch that fucking bird

[robust nymph]

ah

[robust nymph]

you can replace with limiteds that you may have

[bitter cave]

is it possible with my roster to aim for 10+ streak ?

[gleaming cypress]

not me attempting 3/5 sst red solo moltres and him never flinching when it actually mattered

think it took 3h + all attempts combined

[heavy sinew]

Klara solo is so RNG

Why must this happen to me

[heavy sinew]

FINALLY

god that was awful

I'm off to sleep

[bright brook]

Good night

[chrome halo]

Has anyone tried strike Grookey + flinch bot on Moltres?

I just noticed it exists so I'm curious about the possibility of the duo happening

[robust nymph]

this may hapu duo is killing me

[true tartan]

no, it is killing Swampert and Mudsdale

😛

[robust nymph]

you know what

screw it

i'm adding a third

fuck you moltres

[river cliff]

My favorite team for support pidgeot

Can't wait for May's expansion to make her trainer move half decent

[rocky oasis]

suprisingly difficult to get past bar 1 bc of the damn heat wave

dumb moltres team

im shocked that it worked

might be cheaper than phoebe

you can actually outpace the heal on bar 3 bc marshal just hits that hard

and has flinch ofc

[worthy horizon]

taking that for sure

have not found a spot for marshal despite my best efforts

i feel like i considered that at one point and idk why i didn't try it

[rocky oasis]

its moltres

well not wxactly hard but

[rocky oasis]

bc heat wave is obnoxious and this one took me 15 minutes

my gear

the extra crit probably helped i think

[robust nymph]

this is crazy

you outheal?

[rocky oasis]

youre good for bar 2 and 3 unless you get crit

[robust nymph]

grid and LS please?

[worthy horizon]

lucky skills are stoic and lessen burn

[robust nymph]

[rocky oasis]

you def need 5* i think

[bitter gate]

I think I'll end my duos soon

[worthy horizon]

4* support starmie

had drake planned without considering getting lucas's exr

also 5/5 +2e exr lucas

don't think he's cut out for the solo even at +10e though, nothing else on that grid to help much with sustain

[mint osprey]

Marshal does have a duo in Bulu, but Moltres is clearly the better stage to use him

[karmic willow]

Oh dang mg4 moment

Somehow i feel like

He should be against moltress

Call me crazy but hear me out

[worthy horizon]

wh

[karmic willow]

Status immune

Nukes bar 3 clean

So you only need to focus bar 1 and 2

I feel like

We haven't really think too hard about

Dealing with bar 3 as a whole

Treat bar 3 like bulu's bar 3

Kill it or it kills you

[mint osprey]

How many can really one shot Moltres bar 3?

[karmic willow]

Lucas can easily

Any rock unit can and should

[mint osprey]

The trick is to reach there with Lucas

[karmic willow]

Yah

Lucas got the speed and gauge

He just need something to flinch and kill it in time

[lost juniper]

Lucas for me is set on Latias. Drops 2 stats at once and can nuke Bar 3

[worthy horizon]

damage is good but i would not be able to find a duo partner for him personally

and i'm pretty unconcerned with trios

was tricky enough with latias anyway

[worthy horizon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WP7MF5k_fGA

[raven crane]

Yoink.

[blissful rose]

Moltres cheats. Queueing move out of nowhere despite flinch locked.

[robust nymph]

Real

Fuck that bird

[worthy horizon]

got sycamore/marshal on moltres

fire guard on marshal improves it vastly, lessen burn isn't necessary

[tender horizon]

Happens in half bars

[coral summit]

I just want deluxe cookies without having to do a million battles lol

[karmic willow]

WHA

how do you get

crits then

[worthy horizon]

sharp entry marshal/team sharp entry sycamore

work with +2 and +1

it's not bad at all

[karmic willow]

so

sycamore tanks?

or marshal?

hmmm

also i'm seriously thinking

base karen this time is better as a flincher

so sorry but no debuffs 4 u

[golden swift]

i hate LG so much omg 😞

[karmic willow]

you're gonna hate kfc even more after this

[worthy horizon]

sycamore tanks, marshal doesn't have the stats

and yea karen is a moltres unit

rafa has a duo w/ marley

i got her to work with bp morty but figured he was better off enabling wake

marley/hugh is supposed to be a possibility but idk if anyone actually attempted that yet

but if that works it'd be better for taking more advantage of marley's tm when karen gets flameproof

[karmic willow]

hmmm

marley

idk i wanna do marley and nc marnie

because bp erika is chilling with lodge marnie on bulu

again, i might be wrong though

still, @thick dawn you are so commited to doing extremely tough runs like koga solo

or eve vs latias

which is, nice

i don't wanna waste another 8 hours of my life on that clear again so

taking the easy way out

[upper lance]

[karmic willow]

lol

[upper lance]

Why the green noodle is so slow ?

[median swan]

cmarnie can manage with someone less demanding

[karmic willow]

that's support?

or

something?

[median swan]

tech

[karmic willow]

HOW?

well, gotta hand it to marnie though

i'll probaby wait for exr before doing any of that

[median swan]

yeah cake would make it easier

but just in case you wanted marley for someone else

[karmic willow]

alright

marley karen it is

@median swan who are you using marley with?

[median swan]

probably karen too

[karmic willow]

also

@median swan double wally on latias sounds like a good idea yeah?

[median swan]

so proud of best boy that i can ask this question: which ones

[karmic willow]

lodge and base

unless you are going through that lodge wally solo bulu then my god :)))

[median swan]

i think naomi's going with that

[karmic willow]

but

hbu?

[median swan]

oh i used lodge with anni may since i only have her at 1/5

it felt overkill but it was cute

[karmic willow]

imma do anni may solo on bulu

i think i wrote something along the lines of "Don't we have enough debuffers already?" lol

sometimes you gotta plan that early cuz

i am terrified of bulu

34 clears left

@median swan oh yeah you think lodge leaf solo is optimal this time on bulu?

likeeee

unless there is a comp that i'm missing

[median swan]

i don't think i'll ever do it lol it looks really bad

[karmic willow]

fair

oh my god eusine

i haven't planned for him

still

given his disarm

maybe latias

(piercing gaze ftw)

[gleaming cypress]

wait how do you solo with a metronome unit

you have no dps

[karmic willow]

D O D G E

[upper lance]

C H A C H A

[bitter gate]

Hmm

Should I proceed with this

I actually didn't commit to it

[tender horizon]

Wtf

I thought nc marnie and bp erika was a minimum but

[heavy sinew]

You've been waiting your whole life to ask that

[sullen stag]

where should i be using my Elio (alt.) 1/5 exr

latias could use the small speed debuff and tanking but moltres could use the rock zone nuking so idk

[pliant glen]

DC Nemona duo imo

[sullen stag]

already used her :(

here is all the rock types i have left

only olivia is over 3/5 lmao

i might be able to use grant but idk about the gauge

i also cant debuff anyways without weather lol

[bitter gate]

this alakazam

is really nuts

gettting 100% confusion rate

on psybeam

yo, what is wrong with latias today

aggravaiton 9

on zen headbutt and psybeam

[feral plank]

Bulu has oar 9 , that energy ball really pisses me off every start of run

3 times in a row

[sullen stag]

maybe overkill, but elio (alt.), grant, and 1/5 kiawe worked lol

grant has great passives and grid tiles, but his attack stat sucks and he cant buff any of his offensive stats lmao

[bitter gate]

the elaine solo on latias shouldn't be this tilting

and yet it is lol

[feral plank]

Any idea for a 1/5 mix blue?

[mint osprey]

The best he can do is probably Bulu

[lost juniper]

Flint might be too shitty even for Morty

He just deals zero damage

[river cliff]

Yeah I wasn't able to get him to work either, he just melts too fast

Maybe he's best as a dodge tank on bulu or something

[sturdy steeple]

i used flint with sm acerola

vigil was unnecesary i just didnt wanna change a lucky skill if i didnt need to

[lost juniper]

I didn't want to candy Acerola so for Latias she goes

So SS Red + Morty?

Seems overkill af

[sturdy steeple]

roark morty

ss red still gets carried by an op support tho

[lost juniper]

4/5 Rosa though

[sturdy steeple]

love her

[lost juniper]

Yeah but that means I can't copy

[bitter gate]

Does anyone have uhh

a video reference for NC Red + hail eggmon

Idk how to clear that actually, lol

[heavy sinew]

4/5 Rosa yooo

[sharp lichen]

who are you guys using SS Leon with for Latias?

This one fine?

i just went with it lol

[karmic willow]

yooooo

[karmic willow]

very much fine

@sturdy steeple how do you even get through bar 3 tho

[sturdy steeple]

for what

[heavy sinew]

Probably acerola flint

[heady merlin]

20 wins that’s my best reaching 100 seems too far but makeable

Moltres so painful also

[sturdy steeple]

[bitter gate]

ye old classic

[gleaming cypress]

me whose still attempting bp barry bulu solo

[bitter gate]

what can I do with a 2/5 EXR Morty

Because all the Morty duos against Moltres are 3/5

zzz

[inner turret]

You can cry in a corner

[bitter gate]

cries

[karmic willow]

acerola flint

who flinches

[quaint tartan]

3/5 acerola

[dawn plume]

acerola lol

[quaint tartan]

Feeding him a candy

[karmic willow]

oh damn

i read it as

SS Acerola

DAMMIT

[quaint tartan]

I mean ss ace is amazing

But not that amazing

[coral summit]

Can this be done on auto or no?

[dawn plume]

almost certainly not

[lost juniper]

SS Red I guess?

Like I think if you got invested SS Red you should be good

[heavy sinew]

Yeah that makes sense

[river cliff]

What grids do you run?

[bitter gate]

sabrina has mind games

otherwise pretty standard grids for both

Also, poggers, I did Support Dewgong

through a burn too

because ofc last bar heat wave still burned me

[stuck mantle]

I use sun agains him🤣

[karmic willow]

Wait hold up

How do you do irida and wulfric?

Don't you like, only have 2 zones?

[dawn plume]

3

if irida is 3/5

[heavy sinew]

Arctic arrival

[karmic willow]

Oh nvm

I forgot her passive

[heavy sinew]

Ice wish on bar 2 and 3

Win

[karmic willow]

Anyone got her grid?

[sharp lichen]

Auto for the win

[karmic willow]

Sameeee

[sharp lichen]

so is her ice zone also infinite or just hail?

i keep forgetting

[stuck mantle]

Hail only

[dawn plume]

haha yeah

[sullen stag]

not having cookies to invest in mind games sucks 💀

[sharp lichen]

Same 😢

[inner turret]

Me with Whitney

"why does your Whitney have +10 but still 0/20??"

[dawn plume]

lodge volo will solo latios one day

simply dodge everything

and get 5 sandstorm mprs

trust

[karmic willow]

@bitter gate grid for H.Nessa and the eggmon pls

[bitter gate]

Wtf am I doing

[karmic willow]

It's support right?

[karmic willow]

Use event bloo

[bitter gate]

huh?

wym event blue

[karmic willow]

I mean

It debuffs attack with swift

Oh wait

It's not sc jas

Dang

I swore that pose looks so similar

Nvm

But how did you do H.Nessa clear

[bitter gate]

its not rocket science

just flinch and get mprs

no biggie

[karmic willow]

Flinch the entire time no sync?

As in, don't let moltress sync at all?

[bitter gate]

you can figure that out yourself

busy atm

[gleaming cypress]

what investment

[sharp lichen]

5/5 ex

[gleaming cypress]

💀

[sharp lichen]

mind games 2 lucky skill

[sharp lichen]

This maybe?

[dawn plume]

lodge morty is basically f2p why is 5/5 ex investment a 💀 moment

bruh i got burned by heat wave twice in a row

not by sunburn

by heat wave 10% burn rate

[sharp lichen]

f

what run are you doing?

[dawn plume]

im trying lodge volo and molayne

only works with hyper invested volo

which i have

for reasons

[sharp lichen]

welp i dont have volo so there ya go

[gleaming cypress]

5* powerups

and i only have 1k lodge stones left

[sharp lichen]

i mean

3/5 works

i just have him 5/5 because i ex'd him

[gleaming cypress]

actually not even, 4* powerups are the bottleneck

you get barely any from events

even dead multis don't give you all that much

[sharp lichen]

you get 10 per event rerun 🤷‍♂️

[gleaming cypress]

yeah this cyrus VA rerun was my first ever event rerun

go figure

maybe next LG i'll have a surplus but not this time

[sharp lichen]

i mean you get to the point later where you have a lot more to spend

i used to have none but now that i have every unit 5-starred they are much easier to collect

[dawn plume]

i want to get to 30 clears with only duos at least but moltres is testing me

[gleaming cypress]

i still have 30 gen pools and free units to 5*

it will take a while

[sharp lichen]

have you used irida yet?

[bitter gate]

who pinged me

ree

[sharp lichen]

idk some dude asked for your teams

[sullen stag]

i feel so stuck on latias rn

[sharp lichen]

have you done the TL Dawn solo yet?

[sullen stag]

trying to use lodge lillie but i dont know what to slot with her that i actually have

already used lodge dawn

[sharp lichen]

ss leon?

[sullen stag]

dont have

[dawn plume]

sad

molayne fire weakness hurts

[pliant glen]

Don't like how I've spent 2 hours doing the SC Irida Bulu solo when I got it recorded in like 30 minutes in the past

[sharp lichen]

ghetsis?

[dawn plume]

mine is 1/5

[sullen stag]

already used 😭

i also have lodge elesa but i ran out of 4* support candies lmao

[sharp lichen]

whats ur streak rn?

[sullen stag]

maybe 1/5 yamper would work

25

[karmic willow]

Controversial

But nah

I'd use Kali here

[sullen stag]

here is the rest of my ex'd units

[sharp lichen]

DC Gladion?

[sullen stag]

i prioritized 3/5ing dc nemona and with this recent bug DC it'll be a couple DCs before i get him lol

[sharp lichen]

well if your NC Bianca is 2/5 you could use her for Latias

[sullen stag]

im at 19/20 strike candies lmao

saving her for moltres whenever i get my next strike

which could be today if lodge is nice

[sharp lichen]

ah

and you said your sonia is 1/5 right?

[sullen stag]

i'm not too torn about doing "expensive" clears if they arent too bad

yeah, non ex

[sharp lichen]

ah rip she can duo with clay at 3/5

[sullen stag]

hoping i can also get a 3/5 bertha from this sinnoh ticket scouts lol

[sharp lichen]

do you have rachel? umbreon pair

[sullen stag]

yes, 3/5 4*

5* actually

[sharp lichen]

have you used BP Valyrie

[sullen stag]

nope

[sharp lichen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRn6zE7SEog

[sullen stag]

is she worth the EX? I have 75 5* power ups right now

wait, nvm i dont have enough 4 stars lmao

[sharp lichen]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=900000037900&s0=1&l0=140&r0=5&p0=0&a0=21010101&t0=44&g0=AAECAwQFBgcICQoMERITFBobHB0eICUmJyg&v1=900001079100&s1=5&l1=140&r1=6&p1=0&a1=13010602&t1=44&g1=AAECAwQFExYZGycoKissLTAxMjM1&v2=0

[sullen stag]

i dont have PB solgaleo yet 😭

im so cooked

[sharp lichen]

have you done the oak and liza duo yet?

[sullen stag]

i wouldnt be able to 5* either of them but no

[sharp lichen]

https://youtu.be/SKVxg1H5dg8?t=1918&si=2W0-iUVOPQfBHQ9T&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1722722380136193&usg=AOvVaw0MOSl0xPLYwAOCVMzA7DEx

you could try it

[heavy sinew]

Is that Quaggles' sheet?

lmao

[sharp lichen]

For this duo how do you do 3rd bar?

can B-ice beam nuke at half bar?

[tender horizon]

I think ur supposed to nuke thru each bar?

U get 3 hail right

[sharp lichen]

yeah

but once you sync through bar 2 most likely wulfric died

and icy wind does too much damage causing sun to come back up

[dawn plume]

ok 30 with only solos on latias/bulu and only duos on moltres i am allowing trios on moltres now i do not care

i hate that bird

[lost juniper]

Oh so we're adding sheets for the docs?
Gonna add mine then: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1STz8T6KznjadJpZCmiHcQeW_2gYoFCortiQkOdVo5-0/edit?usp=sharing

Probably not gonna do that much though

[karmic willow]

Extra 7% baybeee

@worthy horizon @quaint tartan

Hell yeah

[quaint tartan]

Gg

I’m still procrastinating

[karmic willow]

like

had to roll for

crit +3%

Sunny +4%

[karmic willow]

SAME

[quaint tartan]

I have lg on pause till next Tuesday, i might try to roll something meanwhile

[thick dawn]

its been in the works for a while

i was only motivated to try it cause last month was so fucking boring and that is what i turned to for poma content lol

[heavy sinew]

One day he will get the solo

[lost juniper]

How bad is Volo's solo on Latias?

Togepi obviously

[sullen stag]

ty ty!

[sharp lichen]

GG

[dawn plume]

i gave jasmine wise entry (already had it on a slot) and added supp electabuzz and still barely got the clear i dont think the solo was happening

i do enjoy going kaboom

[sharp lichen]

what grid are you using?

cuz i was able to do the solo without much issue

maybe because i used mad strength? idk

[dawn plume]

this

i also used mad strength

[empty token]

Whoever decided to give latias slippery slope and +6 ev needs to be drawn and quartered

[dawn plume]

rng was just not working for me

[empty token]

Why would you do that

[sharp lichen]

i mean it sometimes works in your favor if you need to do more debuffs

[karmic willow]

argenta solo latias gang rn

[empty token]

Just did it with Sicamore

[sharp lichen]

please any tips? i never do enough to cause a sync at bar 3 and the closest i can get to use B - Ice beam is at like 73% moltres hp with B-Ice beam doing like 53% and because of all of the procs B ice move does it wont let me use icy wind for the kill right after

[karmic willow]

use b move at start for me

and like

bar 3

just flinch and pray

sync under hail for max damage

[sharp lichen]

gotcha ill try

thanks

so that means no sync bar 1?

[karmic willow]

no you wanna

sync bar 1

sync bar 2

and then bar 3 just

try to not reach half bar

with all that you can

[empty token]

I send all my extra rng luck your way

[sharp lichen]

thats the issue though, i always overdamage half bar on bar 3

[stuck mantle]

Best use wulfric only then

Dont touch irida

So you dont do more damage

[sharp lichen]

ngl ive never had wulfric get that far

wait do i tank with wulfric or iridia

cuz ive been using wulfric

[stuck mantle]

Irida

[sharp lichen]

ah

theres the issue then

thanks

[empty token]

That'll do it

[river cliff]

Using ft2 helped me stagger the damage enough to have a sync ready by the second half of bar 3

[karmic willow]

oh yeah

burgh

anyone got a team for him?

pretty sure he can handle sleep chain on latias yeah?

[upper lance]

Sleep Chain against Latias

[karmic willow]

speaking of sleep chain

doing ss hilbert sleepchain is hella fun

mfg

still no wise entry 2 on argenta

Pinpoint > troublemaker

Simply because

You can use tackle to hit latias

Reduce the dodge rate lmfao

Worth it

[twin aurora]

Not sure if I be at top100 this time cuz of mostly skipping last week cuz of work but I got at least minimum rewards
I love SS-Cyrus’ expand

[sharp lichen]

Sync didn’t crit

Figured out what to do though

Bruh

Only lost because of sync buff and no flinches at the end

Rip me

[bitter gate]

@thick dawn hi

Unfortunate ratio diff lol

[inner turret]

47 💀 you guys are crazy

[bitter gate]

Nah

I'm already tilted and using bad teams

Lol

[inner turret]

Im tilted at 2

[bitter gate]

No more solos

[twin aurora]

I’m tilted at datamine leak of LG trio

[inner turret]

I really dont want to do 8 clears lmao

I'll do it for the rewards but man

[quaint tartan]

I thought I was doing good with 24 clears

[sharp lichen]

Finally

[heavy sinew]

47 on day 3 with Moltres

man wtf

[river cliff]

Who's a good 4/5 N partner? Being dragon weak is pretty rough

[blissful rose]

I'm at 11 and I'm already tired of it.

[empty token]

What are the f2p strats for moltres rn?

already used my NC silver

[inner turret]

This team was fun btw, Palmer one shotted all 3 bars lol

[empty token]

yeah bulu seems to be the punching bag this round

[quaint tartan]

Candice and acerola have mpr on the weather
Winona has shower power via grid to cast 3 rain total

[quaint tartan]

We overkillin

[inner turret]

Real

Cheap
Cheap
Oh fuck Moltres fuck it we go overkill mode

[heavy sinew]

Larry

[stuck mantle]

Im 46

54 too goo🤣 and farm cookies

[heavy sinew]

Realized I was doing SS korrina on Latias wrong but then again Latias isn't cooperating with zenbutt flinches

[feral plank]

Any idea for an adaman duo clear in moltres?

[wispy cloud]

tried Adaman solo on tapu bulu and surprised at how easy it was

[stuck mantle]

I did acerola and adaman on moltres duo

[wicked tusk]

Tapu Bulu when she has to fight grass types
(suddenly making grassy terrain was a bad idea)

[feral plank]

Nah just a flincher works too

[raven crane]

Yeah it's brainless.

No gauge issues, Adaman has good physical defensive prowess, and heals under grassy terrain plus Synthesis.

And, obviously, he does damage.

[feral plank]

Imagine he had flinch D:

[raven crane]

The solos...

Oh the juicy solos..

[olive swift]

Where r the Moltres TEAMS

I'm dying pls

[karmic willow]

please tell me you are just farming right?

[inner turret]

No

Im done with my streak

Fuck Moltres, Im not tryharding a Moltres LG

[karmic willow]

truer words have never been said

anyways

i just hopped online to check

my list

7 clears left on both moltress and latias needed

and still 34 more on bulu

@thick dawn how do you use ss gladion this time though. Like do you just duo with eggmon and blast through latias and nothing?

[keen flint]

i cant get this geeta solo

[heavy sinew]

Flinch like crazy

That's all
