Oh yeah
Fire guard on sopholes and reset for one tm on lyra (speed) and one on sopholes (early heals)
Lyra takes stoic 2

karmic willow
But I thought it was og sophocles not bp
Nope it's bp
quaint tartan
At the beginning
karmic willow
Spams only iron defense throughout the game
Only iron defense
Like
If you attack
You lose hp
And you need every hp possible
Speed is also an issue
So
Yeah, works
@thick dawn oh hi there
quaint tartan
Speed is also an issue
Im getting racing rain with the extra energy 
karmic willow
Nah
Reset for tm mpr
If you really need speed
Like the speed from the tm was what inspired me to do this thing
Also damnnn
Quaggles is also a bp karen ex enjoyer

Yeah, that is her mechanic. Normal form has supp stuff, and fighting to kick enemy

What are you guys using SS Erika with for Moltres?
Probably will just use alolan persian, and use Sprigattito with Courtney
Wait
I should probably swap that right?
quaint dawn
Shame that I won't have SS Kris for this Gauntlet since she returns probably masters day September

SS Lyra also cooks on Moltres if you bring a second grassy terrain setter

yeah ss lyra murders moltres
rocky oasis
just needs a bit of support from anything w/o speed buffs w/o field cake
shy sinew
no egg Leafeon or support Sprigatito?

seriously ss lyra is a clear of her own

no egg Leafeon or support Sprigatito?
not yet

she flinches w/ every move

yeah it did it with EXR I’m pretty sure

havent got Lucian yet, my luck is good 😢
rocky oasis
normal form ss steven is also a good flincher at base tho he also needs no investment for that
waste to use him w/ celebi tho
bitter cave
yea i would feel it like a waste
Acelora it is
and probably use winona as flincher for other run
rocky oasis
also a waste to use acerola w/ ss lyra i guess
bitter cave
other recommendation tho ?
rocky oasis
minimal grid blue?
bitter cave
I'm satisfied with 10 streak
rocky oasis
if you dont mega w/ him
bitter cave
Blue with blastoise ?
shy sinew
Is Katherine available? She can chain
karmic willow
Finally
bitter cave
i actually choose Red
shy sinew
Base Blue is Pidgeot
rocky oasis
volkner is also a 50% flincher at base
karmic willow
@bitter gate thanks for the h.nessa moltress duo
rocky oasis
no investment
bitter cave
Is Katherine available? She can chain
which one is Katherine again ?
shy sinew
event pair with Slurpuff
ran at the start of this year
going to guess without Lucian that any NY pairs are also off the table
rocky oasis
also crasher wake if you can afford aggravation
bitter cave
my team are so underinvested
rocky oasis
nanu can be a decent flincher if you run him w/ a crit buffer
Keep in mind that crit sting only activates if he crits
and he cant buff his own at 1/5
shy sinew
could’ve gone cheaper without Racing Rain, that might give you enough orbs to grab Flameproof instead taking a more middling line
bitter cave
wait let me reset
rocky oasis
nanu needs no orbs at 1/5 btw
rocky oasis
sure
shy sinew
yep that’s the cheapest line to aggravation and a bit of protection in case a heat wave sneaks through
bitter cave
previously have tried f2p team for nanu toucannon and salamence
but i never feel so weak
shy sinew
no crit buffing there I’m not surprised nanu fell a bit flat
but running a second flincher with ss Lyra is a waste, I want to make sure we’re not doing that
bitter cave
rocky oasis
previously have tried f2p team for nanu toucannon and salamence
the f2p team assumes you have 3/5 crit focus nanu
and haymaker 3/5 kahili
your units just aint there yet
shy sinew
it doesn’t help that your first gauntlet has quite easily the hardest boss to solo in it
bitter cave
do you guys think 10 streak is realistic for me ?
or should i aim lower ? fine by me tho
shy sinew
I would be ecstatic with a 10 streak starting out
dawn plume
EVE SUCKS
shy sinew
I think you can get there if you’re willing to put the work in
rocky oasis
10 streak is good

nova grove
hiya! i've got a new auto to add to the doc - i don't have a youtube channel for privacy reasons but i'll ask a friend to upload it privately on theirs, or im happy to let someone else host it on theirs/count it as their own!
shy sinew
If it’s an auto team that I can replicate I’m happy to do anything from just uploading and giving credit to you or doing a full recording if needed
nova grove
gotcha! ive got the recording or you can remake, lemme grab you the pomatools comp but basically its skyla kahili rika (i have rika and skyla ex but im pretty sure its optional on both?). was trying the non-video bugsy one, but was getting bored of resetting it bc he wasnt evading reliably enough so i swapped in my rika and swept lmao
shy sinew
yeah I can definitely replicate that, I have 5/5 EXR 70 energy Rika lol
nova grove
amazing
nova grove
oh god thats a disgusting link huh
but yeah my rika is 1/5 its mostly just the -acc, poison for each bar, and triage tank
with potions from skyla as backup for any heavy hits or crits since im not using a cookie for vigi when i'll get it via grid once i make it to 3/5
also yeah she does have exr for me but kahili is the only sync so
stat boost is probably not necessary? but who knows
shy sinew
it’s all good pomatools team builder is just like that, I’ll get some reliability readings on it in a little while
nova grove
you can try with various combos of higher grids for vigi/mp refresh on spdef+
shy sinew
still a small sample size, NC Rosa NC Cheren auto has failed like 5 times in 30 hours of running the auto
nova grove
oh really? huh go figure
in that case i will watch to see if any of these fail while i continue to work lol
but yeah feel free to credit hell or eliot if you want but i more just want the info on the sheet since it seems to work p well!
nova grove
have to put all the info there...
wait did the share link not work for the saved team?
true tartan
it works fine lol
as long you press "Share" and paste the link here
I was saying that the length of the link is big because of all the info it holds haha
shy sinew
yeah the link is correct but there’s no way to make it less ugly as all the info is in the link
nova grove
ah
icic
for another site i frequent (entirely unrelated to pokemon) you get a long ugly link if you dont save and if you save with a name you can get a shortened url
but i 100% dont blame pomatools for just keeping the links easy on their end
they do enough as is saving my life daily
shy sinew
ngl I did forget for a second that the pomatools stdk was commenting on why the links are the way they are lol
nova grove
i returned to the game recently (all things considered) and i have screenshots from the old grid preview/builder back in the day and i cannot emphasize how nice it is to have pomatools this go-round
hearty haven

anyway as someone who has basically none of the top tier meta units (rika is why i came back; i have sygna red + charizard from way back when.... no sygna blue, definitely no neochamps, and my only master fairs are ssr & ssa cynthia + archie) this being my second legendary gauntlet is much less terrifying than the last month's
thank god i can auto/farm one of the stages this round

maybe that page lets users create accounts and stuff?
if it is that, they can use a database and store the team in there, which lets them create an ID with the configuration, so it is shorter to share

seeing registeel explode for 0 damage is kinda depressing

I thought that duo was overkill lol, glad I was wrong I guess?

@sturdy steeple what to do with nc cheren
sturdy steeple
depends on if u wanna do the latias solo or not
karmic willow
How bad is it again....
And
Who do you have planned for ghetsis?
I still think cheryl
Because mespirit feels overkill
sturdy steeple
cheren or something
mint osprey
Cheren does have some use now that he's 3/5
karmic willow
Slowwwwee
mint osprey
Cheryl is probably your best bet but Dennis be the tank instead
That egg won't last long versus physical damage
sturdy steeple
even cheren is a bit overkill for ghetsis as you can get away with like valerie i believe
but ihave like a dozen supports left over so he gets cheren rn in my planning

Where are people using Wallace?

I think OG Wallace post-PB should be able to duo Bulu.

no shot thats a duo
I also think I remember seeing people using a growl eggmon to duo Bulu with him but I couldn't figure it out

feels impossible to get a run with no crits or no burns

this is just 2/5 C Calem...
the worst is over half 3 haha
under half 3 is "better" as it doesn't have 2 bar moves
but it has MGA, so you have to survive until it runs out...

i could see why no one would be interested in it gauntlet-wise when latias always comes with moltres

oh yeah, i meant to ask: is lodge serena just too flimsy for any auto on bulu? it seems like she would make a lot of sense otherwise
shy sinew
@heavy sinew two new bulu autos for you:
https://youtu.be/-b9DgG3gEvU is the auto I've been doing for 4 days now and had maybe 5 failures total, not sure why they fail but this clear is extremely fast and extremely reliable
https://youtu.be/fx3EHNAGsvU I recorded a single time, this is originally @nova grove's clear that I just uploaded so it could exist somewhere. They say it's really consistent and I believe it looking at the clear. My Rika is 5/5 but 1/5 grid, looks extremely feasible.
both clears have grids, lucky skills, and gear in the video description already
nc cheren go zoom on bulu
nova grove
^ my rika is 1/5; id done 7-8 when i first mentioned it in here and i've been running them all day with 0 fails yet!
apologies its not a more specific number for stats reasons
shy sinew
I did one but survivability doesn't look like a concern at all, my Rika didn't even dip below 50% on the first wood hammer
below 50% is when the auto decides it's potion time
nova grove
yeah, the vigi is a nice qol/safety and maybe speeds things up a hair for other grid tiles but
plus the triage tank keeping skyla and kahili up so you dont lose time/potential refreshes to healing them, which was the biggest issue i was finding in the bugsy one
rocky oasis
latias team w/ FT on both. prpbably needs some luck w/ debuffs

With better skill gear it might be possible? Her healing might get a bit dicy but I didn't even proc endurance on Wally

I actually just used type gear for it so any skill gear that works with both would go a long way

i don't want to EX her atm so i will keep the duo in mind

I also flubbed and did the bar 2 transition before my sync was ready so that took Lenora down a lot lower than I would have liked

some bulu solos are uh

a very large portion of those want to be on latias bc they have useful debuffs

so there ends up being not that many bulu solos left like for me at 33

i wouldn't have that and i can't imagine any parallel

How does weather setting on sync work? It works with Pal Bea but not SS Silver (As in their weather replacing Sun)
worthy horizon
presumably you triggered one of the bar transitions that set sun on ss silver's sync
the sync sets weather before moltres does
mint osprey
Yes, I can understand that with the half bar thing, but it works with Bea
Sync hitting the birb down to half bar, Sun up, then Hail
However for Silver's case, it's vice versa
sturdy steeple
ok i ran into this the other day and we think its because silver's specifics Entry as opposed to just Syncing like pbea and a buncha others
mint osprey
I see, so being Entry gives it a higher priority or something
sturdy steeple
something along those lines
robust nymph
so nc red's hail on sync should trigger after moltres's sun during bar transition, right?
sturdy steeple
after moltres' sun
heavy sinew
I think the NC red eggmon duo shows hail activating after sun so it should be right
dawn plume
yeah thats how i beat nita's ub lol
the hail passive comes after the enemy sets their weather

i think shower sync was my only point of reference and that gets screwed

Yes, he can do that

With Moltres, you mostly have to do trio for sleep strat

Sleep strat for trio is definitely more chill compared to duo
