Legendary Gauntlet 17 (Registeel, Azelf, Cobalion)

[inner turret]

There isnt any other very important trainer with a Psychic type as their main, besides Diantha but she's fairy

[raven crane]

Lear.

[rotund rain]

I think it will release in 2026 though if that’s on table

[raven crane]

But yeah.

[inner turret]

Oh yeah lear

[raven crane]

I wonder who will be Ghost, or if they'll cop-out and do Volo with Giratina.

[inner turret]

I dont think volo Giratina will be arc

[raven crane]

And he just won't be an Arc Suit but will have the specs (or he'll just be an Arc Suit anyway because ok.)

I dunno I think Volo fits that weird piece.

Mostly because there is literally no one better suited for Ghost unless they go with Anniversary Lillie.

... Which the more I think about it the more I can see.

[lost juniper]

I think Giratina-O will probably be a mf bait before anni

At some point. He seems popular enough for that and anni seems to just be fully arc suits for now

[inner turret]

Ngl I could see him at anni with 2 arc

Or heck they pull a 5th anni and 3 arc + 1 mf

[bitter gate]

Oh

So Gio did 14 that fast after all

Lol

[toxic kernel]

Who is going to do the SS Steven one in a few hours?

[dawn plume]

nah gotta do the dc hop solos

[inner turret]

If it was Dubwool I would

[sturdy steeple]

oh man it wasnt dubwool

didnt even realize

[tender horizon]

Giovanni says Hi

They must be saving Dubwool for some stupid seasonal event

[sturdy steeple]

or lodge

[rotund rain]

[shy notch]

Wooloo supremacy

[inner turret]

Bro I was literally talking about Giovanni

[raven crane]

Clearly, Mael, you were talkin about Vioganni.

[inner turret]

Real sorry

[true tartan]

whew, finished adding new lowers on the solos

and a new one

[worthy horizon]

i did bulu from lv 140

[true tartan]

lol

I lowered it on the link, not on the cell, welp

and fixed

(also, no one lowered my 1 EX R solo on Raikou)

so I also added it

[worthy horizon]

guess i'll look into it

[warped axle]

wow

[heavy sinew]

Torn gaming

[shy notch]

Uploading now

[true tartan]

it counts as jan 1st, so no issue

[dreamy warren]

gio ate lg I assume

how long did it take him

[true tartan]

hmmm

nao posted the completion

5 hours

[dreamy warren]

longer than I thought ngl

I thought he would do it in 3 hours

[true tartan]

so, who is going for SA Steven to take out Tornadus

and claim the double entry in 14

[heavy sinew]

Happy New year to my gauntlet gamers

[true tartan]

so not for me

||jk ||

[gleaming cypress]

any idea on mix Lucas solo count

[tender horizon]

HNY

[pearl beacon]

Depend on unparalleled power boost ig

Tho no ground wish mpr...

Is really meh for me

And no spammable bmove, make little sense compared to previous units

[bitter gate]

let the pain and suffering begin

[rocky oasis]

he has debuffs and fmn

he cant be too terrible

3 zones dont seem that bad

[karmic willow]

May not be the best but

She is worth it

[rocky oasis]

sync regen and ground zone recovery

not terrible?

smth like this will get you at least a couple solos

[worthy horizon]

yea he looks quite good but def a lot different from the first batch of mix units

[rocky oasis]

self sufficient at least

probably able to take terrakion

latias is a given

his stats aint bad either

liek thats solid

probably aint touching moltres or torn lbr

def gets the regis

[bitter gate]

god damn it

just give me an extra flinch

[rocky oasis]

maybe uxie w/ the debuffs tho he kinda cant make use of gobsmack and idk how hard he can nuke bar 2 on entry

[bitter gate]

and I would've gotten it

oh well

[rocky oasis]

gl

[bitter gate]

i got flinched by rock slide

that's why I lost

if I didn't, it's easy

[true tartan]

RNG moment

[rocky oasis]

torterra aint touching cress

[bitter gate]

like it's just bar 3, really, bar 1 and 2 are easy

[rocky oasis]

sacred sword is miserable

[bitter gate]

and with the DR, she doesn't even get 2shot by sword

nah, she can take it pretty well

I just got overwhelmed by the flinch

barely even did half with reflect up

lol

But yeah, I'll get it soon

[true tartan]

SA Gloria cleared Latios

[brisk sapphire]

Hmmm I'm trying 1/5 EXR Lucas on Latios. Farthest I reached is Bar 3 80%

[true tartan]

but.... can't tell what she's using

lol

only know vertical tiles

and HH

the rest... no idea...

[brisk sapphire]

Might be skill issue on my part or he needs 2/5 min for the recovery tiles

[bitter gate]

Avast ye foul musket

11th kill

Can I do the remaining 3, is the question

[brisk sapphire]

Ay congrats

[karmic willow]

Walahi

[bitter gate]

aight, okay

IF I get enough MPRs early

to block Twave

without using max

I win this

I had to use max move bar 1

[bitter gate]

oh ffs

that was a natural crit

i flinched the hyper beam

and he nat crits it

ffs

[brisk sapphire]

Oof

[bitter gate]

I almost got it too

I could've given 12/27

[karmic willow]

12/27?

also

imagine if they threw in vigilance for her SA

like some got 3 skills

[worthy horizon]

almost nothing got vigilance for 10/5 but poppy did

iono has vigilance innate but gains team vigilance

[bitter gate]

12 kills 27 matchup score

Speaking of

Can I do 14?!

[worthy horizon]

i think so

[brisk sapphire]

Who's left

[bitter gate]

moltes and Torn

moltres is a pain in the ass because of the -2 speed, the gauge really sucks early

also depends if Anabel can get by with only 20% healing per sync

against torn's bar's

she can chunk one bar with max move, which is likely to be first

[karmic willow]

ss lana uinder terrain lul

[worthy horizon]

yeah the rest of the cases are conditional like under wtz

there's a fair number of those

[karmic willow]

i mean

can it be just

her under like

field effect

of course tm gives her crit immune but

i know what i want

[bitter gate]

Idt anabel can do either

The issue is that bar 1 alone exhausts

And she lacks kill pressure

You need 10 sync buffs to kill bar 1 with a crit max move, by then which she's already dead, I think

[true tartan]

oh

2300 solos as for now

still pending some uploads like the Anabel ones

[brisk sapphire]

Trying out MLucas, but I might need 2/5 at the minimum

[bitter gate]

Ill only do them later tonight or tmr, I have a NY celebration

Also idt I can do more than 12

Though I did get to bar 3 once

Tbh if Anabel had more energy

Itd be definitely doable

But her grid sucks lol

[true tartan]

mix lucas got Raikou and Latios for now

[brisk sapphire]

Was it 2/5 for Latios

I was trying 1/5, and the farthest I got is 80% 3rd Bar

[true tartan]

1 EXR

[brisk sapphire]

Oh. So #skillissue on my part then

[worthy horizon]

60% flinch is quite the privilege but yea there's always a lot of opportunity cost on anabel's grid even +10e

[brisk sapphire]

I'll definitely check it out once it's out in the doc

[true tartan]

it is on mine, but sure

[brisk sapphire]

Oh

Glad to learn from you

[true tartan]

Giovanni needing 2/5 or 5/5/ is fun

[worthy horizon]

wonder how many other options gain no solos from specifically 3/5, arc steven and summer acerola at a glance

would also need a 1/5 or 2/5 solo to be meaningful

[bitter gate]

The issue is mostly that she needs Catalytic Accel + Synchro Healing, but then is stuck picking one of either crit or Agg

[true tartan]

waiting for the someone to make SS Steven 14 a reality

[bitter gate]

Did Arven kill Torn or what

[true tartan]

not that I've seen

[bitter gate]

or does he still get overwhelmed

[worthy horizon]

surprised no one's up for the offer tbh

out the gate like it is currently

[true tartan]

also

hop solos, where

[bitter gate]

So far it's just Gloria + Skippingmud Wally stuff?

[true tartan]

Argenta

aight, guess there is one

[bitter gate]

so 6 > 8

11 > 12

0-1

And when I upload my vids, 10 > 12 on Anabel

[true tartan]

and Steven eventually

13->14

[bitter gate]

And Arven

Unless you think torn is still a pipe dream

[true tartan]

Arven I can't say

Steven is more... real lol

[tender horizon]

Rafad

[wide citrus]

wow Giovanni landed 14?

nice

[bitter gate]

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

One

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhF4tlsvsAU&feature=youtu.be

two

[inner turret]

Oh you 10/5 here

[bitter gate]

Yeah, because apparently I was the only person who was gonna do it

[inner turret]

I will... In 2030 maybe

[bitter gate]

this is my first awakening btw

[dreamy warren]

I hope there's lg news next month

[raven crane]

Y'all are motivating me to start back up on my SA solo..

But good lord pain.

[dawn plume]

rednhoho cooking w dc units as usual

hops at 4 already

i think he’ll get more

he has like every main lg counter gimmick in his kit for some reason

its latios bulu torn and coba so far

[raven crane]

Huh, didn't expect all that.

(Not sure why I didn't, maybe I thought his gauge wasn't gonna be good.)

[rocky oasis]

i mean a 60% flinch is always nice to have

[dawn plume]

https://youtu.be/aTzbgRn853A?si=m-qkkea0oxARkcPK

1/5 20/20 watch raikou explode in 1:30

i dont even think 20/20 is required

[shy notch]

Double full para into hyper beam

[lost juniper]

What invesment?

[shy notch]

2/5 20/20

Shouldn’t be too bad, but someone else can do it

[lost juniper]

https://youtu.be/ZhPJSJcTQ1w

[true tartan]

so many solos lol

even Grimsley sneaked one

tied with solos lol

[quaint tartan]

Love how Agatha sneaked in too lol

[true tartan]

all arenas got new solos but Entei and Moltres

[rocky oasis]

how many flinches did the grimsley one take

[sturdy steeple]

the Solo doc has been updated, happy new years everyone

was very impressed by hilda

[karmic willow]

wowie

hilda now solos terrak

insane

realistically i might do her with a flincher

[shy notch]

SS Hilda went from like 3 solos pre EXR to 12 solos with EXR and now SA. Big glow up

[karmic willow]

yup

worth the sa i gave her

[lost juniper]

I also did Latias. Forgot to link it here: https://youtu.be/WL9_iVheiF4?si=r1ambMrviSGa68u_

[rocky oasis]

wait where js the grimsley solo

for azelf

[sturdy steeple]

https://youtu.be/Pvn9UDIWs7g?si=i3g13kWc6D14fuGv on the document

[dawn plume]

oh yeah the superawakening drops

i forgor

4 new terrakion solos in one day its at 100 solos now pog

[inner turret]

Terrakion's so weak :clueless:

[sturdy steeple]

more like our units are so strong

[lost juniper]

Wait Terra got 100? Who was the 100th?

[dawn plume]

one of ss hilda ss wally sina or anabel

all happened same day

dont wanna bother timestamping and see which happened when lol

[inner turret]

I think sina was last

[dawn plume]

she wasnt a new superawakening so i'd believe it

[lost juniper]

I just looked at stdk's blog and I think Hilda was after Sina

[true tartan]

Sina: 15:18
Hilda: 17:11

so it was Hilda

at least, by upload time lol

[lost juniper]

That checks out

I did the clear about an hour and a half before I posted

[sturdy steeple]

victory

[karmic willow]

Lit

[vagrant crypt]

https://youtu.be/-E7y5YXyL-8?si=HOQicj7tcbtl0qS1 👀

I'll post the gears in 45 minutes.

[dawn plume]

lvl 145 meta

[true tartan]

nice, lowered :T

[dawn plume]

slapping zones and pmuns on units lets them do wonderful things

lol

[true tartan]

is it like this?

[lost juniper]

Hop and VHop also have the exact same solos

Unless someone gets Terrakion with VHop

[true tartan]

dies to ground moveS

Ground DR Gear 45%

[true tartan]

I'm wondering... why not Terrakion?

[dawn plume]

ground weak

thats my guess anyways

[lost juniper]

It's probably the real reason. Earthquake, Earth Power, Bullzode...

[true tartan]

but it can nuke past bar 2-3...

[lost juniper]

Paulo also can't stagger in any way either

[lost juniper]

How it survives Bar 1

[true tartan]

it uses Bulldoze as ground move

Rock Smash -> Bulldoze -> Stone Edge, repeat

not spamming ground moves

[dawn plume]

+2 atk bulldoze might be enough lol

paulo cant buff his defenses til after he syncs

[lost juniper]

Terrakion has fat hp though

[true tartan]

35K*

[lost juniper]

And is very fast

[true tartan]

yeah... that last part is the problem one

wonder if snow did attempt

[vagrant crypt]

Oh, thanks for the translation.
Just, for the bracelet, it's:
-Special DR 3%
-Special DR 4%

[vagrant crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-excited-happy-squirtle-hihihi-gif-7937582

[true tartan]

the benefit of romance languages, can somewhat tell what it means lol

you could lower Bulu too

it is 140 5/20

[vagrant crypt]

Yes, maybe tomorrow. 👀

[pearl pawn]

VHop and (b)Hop SUCK

[raven crane]

Not like it took too much.

[dawn plume]

i thought ss hilda had the 2nd most striker solos now but i somehow missed giacomo getting to 13/14

LOOOOOOOOOL

[worthy horizon]

always wipes bars 2 and 3 on everything at max invest

[dawn plume]

the most expensive character in poma history

[worthy horizon]

at least 3 managed to be lowered to 3/5 but idk what else he's managing from there

wants that 5/5 so much

he does have flinch for moltres but ig gauge dies too fast

so much more offensive pressure than anything else

torn he gets to wipe bar 1 in 5 turns and can dps down bar 2

[pearl pawn]

I wonder if someone is crazy enough to do the moltres solo

[raven crane]

Is Moltes even possible?

[pearl pawn]

maybe with perfect flinches (no)

[raven crane]

It's not like it's denial luck (if I remember his kit right) it's just straight up damage.

Oh right he does have flinch.

[dawn plume]

gauge where

[raven crane]

On Moltres' side of the field.

[dawn plume]

yeah

[rocky oasis]

moltres solos these days be like

"just flinch everything bro"

has the anni skyla solo been done yet

[worthy horizon]

yea it could be impossible for giacomo even with perfect flinches just bc his gauge is too bad but hard to know for sure

just a guess

[raven crane]

Nope, still working on it.

Only started back today after pausing for like two or three weeks.

[raven crane]

NEVER MND FELLA'S.

IT IS DONE!

SKYLA HAS DEFEATED MOLTRES!

[chrome halo]

Now do BP Zinnia solo on Moltres

[raven crane]

NO.

[dawn plume]

[raven crane]

Uploading the video, will do tips when I calm down.

[rocky oasis]

congrats

[raven crane]

Ironically the theme was Zinnia's lol.

[chrome halo]

She has self speed buffs and chain passive she does have a shot

[raven crane]

Eh..

Dragon Rush still three gauge.

Not that I'm considering it, pahaha.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ono9CcpUpuU

https://tenor.com/view/ganondorf-ganon-dies-dying-legend-of-zelda-gif-27672996

[worthy horizon]

does anyone even have duos for bp zinnia on moltres bc there's none in repo

[worthy horizon]

+1 on 2 tms isn't exactly a whole lot of speed to work with when there's no haste

ah

well at least that exists

[true tartan]

so, when does Skyla take Tornadus down

[raven crane]

I plan to try it, lol.

[true tartan]

:T

[raven crane]

Just... Not right now.

[true tartan]

aight, added

still no one doing the Steven on Tornadus...

[raven crane]

[worthy horizon]

maybe awful 10/5 scared people off wanting to awaken steven at all but even 6-9/5 could do it

if it was at all viable for non-awakened steven

[true tartan]

yup

[dawn plume]

the cooler tornadus

wait is this PAUSE BUFFERING in pokemon masters??

i have never seen this

[worthy horizon]

i might have uses for that

but i've never used it before

[raven crane]

No.

I used it to listen to the flinch sound to get it as early as I could, though it wasn't needed.

[dawn plume]

huh interesting

[raven crane]

I wish pause buffering did something in this game.

[hollow ether]

Even with SA, still rough run, especially 2nd bar

Manage go 3rd bar, only get 1 Recover MPR

[dawn plume]

speed form?

[hollow ether]

Yes

Need a lot of miss for 2nd bar

Because it hits hard with Fly & brutal swing, so need eva & miss a lot

I hope my candy do not go waste just because i wanna awaken him just for solo torn xD

[true tartan]

didn't normal get further

[dawn plume]

speed not being able to buff its defenses turns bar 3 into a horrible mpr simulator i feel

[pearl pawn]

peak

[hollow ether]

I tried with normal form, can't survive cuz torn hits hard 🤣

With his speed buff

[true tartan]

what were you using

[hollow ether]

You see that?

With +2 atk & 5 sync buff

[hollow ether]

You mean grids?

[raven crane]

Bar 2 persists in being annoying.

[dawn plume]

normal forme struggles vs bar 2, but speed forme will struggle vs bar 3

hmm

time for defense form brute forcing...

[hollow ether]

I haven't tried speed form for 3rd bar

[raven crane]

Prolly a dumb question but like, couldn't it?

[hollow ether]

Cuz that run, the HP was 1% left xD

Normal form is kinda time consuming for 2nd bar

Because torn always buff atk

We only can do like -5 atk

And torn gradually buff atk xD

[dawn plume]

defense forme bruteforce? uhh i mean on paper probably but its offensives are hilariously bad

[raven crane]

Yeh.

[dawn plume]

torn will farm so many sync buffs

[raven crane]

Actually probably not since the guy is still weak to Dark.

Wall or not, super effective moves gonna hurt.

[hollow ether]

Will try brute force defensive form later

[dawn plume]

these are very good defensive stats

for superawakening

[worthy horizon]

what has defense forme accomplished solo-wise

[true tartan]

Latios

[dawn plume]

and still getting the tech superawakening sync boost

[raven crane]

I mean.

[dawn plume]

i think defense forme has literally only done latios lol

[worthy horizon]

xd

[dawn plume]

its offenses are REALLY bad

[vagrant crypt]

I'ts done. ✅

[raven crane]

Surely Defense form is capable of basically any stage without major damage mitigation (like Bulu or Entei.)

With Super Awakening anyway.

[dawn plume]

probably yeah, but why bother?

[hollow ether]

In theory, speed form still can survive at 3rd bar since torn do not buff sp atk

[raven crane]

With LG dead why bother with any of this.

I jest.

[hollow ether]

With many recover mpr

[dawn plume]

LG will return

they cant just drop lodge shauna then kill LG

[raven crane]

I'm not "panicking" until next months datamine.

If it isn't in there, gonna start sweating a good bit.

[dreamy warren]

at most I see this mode being replaced with a new version of itself. I don't see why dena would kill off lg. It takes 0 effort to maintain, interests a lotttt of whales and gets a lot of interaction from the community

[sturdy steeple]

try speed forme

[dreamy warren]

I think lg just returns next month

[sturdy steeple]

LG does NOT interest whales

[raven crane]

The emphasis.

[dreamy warren]

I see a lot of whales play this game mode with passion?

[true tartan]

there are notorious whales :T

not necessarily "a lot"

[dreamy warren]

also either way this mode takes 0 effort to maintain

[sturdy steeple]

that part is correct

[true tartan]

like, there's the odd case of... Snow

[dreamy warren]

idk why dena would cut this one off

[raven crane]

Think we'd need to know how many whales there are to judge any metric like that, lel.

[true tartan]

they do lots of LA, but don't play LG lol

[dreamy warren]

it costs nothing to maintain

oh

[hollow ether]

Defensive form is not recommended xD

So slow lol

[dawn plume]

yeah snow doesnt touch the leaderboards at all

[dreamy warren]

doesn't it have 200 offenses

[raven crane]

If play on the game mode, and/or feedback, is low/showing lack of interest, it's easy for them to cut off and replace with something else.

Not saying it's happening.

[sturdy steeple]

wait to see what happens next month before tryna theorize whats going on with LG

[dawn plume]

he just does the most mindnumbingly awful solos ever for the hell of it

[true tartan]

yup

[sturdy steeple]

speed forme has gotten the farthest in tornadus in the past

[dawn plume]

worse

this is WITH superawakening

[dreamy warren]

I thought it was 249 not 149

[true tartan]

soloing because is fun to use units like that, not because they like LG

[vagrant crypt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MufaKTnxyxc Same g.s except for the bracelet :
hp30
atk70
def25
-Fire P-Move DR & S-Move DR 5%
-Healthy Benefits 5%

[raven crane]

I understand that a lot.

[dreamy warren]

Ohhhh

[true tartan]

like, I'm another example of that

[raven crane]

Stress coming with trying to score high in this mode is real, plus time restrictions.

[dreamy warren]

still lg garners quite a bit if attention

[raven crane]

Still puzzled why they don't announce rotations early.

Like lord.

[dreamy warren]

I am praying this game mode doesn't get the hse duration next time it runs

[raven crane]

That alone would do wonders.

[true tartan]

for japanese, yep

[dreamy warren]

hse got cut to 9 days iirc

[dawn plume]

people are speculating they're cooking new arenas but... idk how plausible that is

[true tartan]

or well, no-spoiler players

[raven crane]

I mean HSE-early.

[vagrant crypt]

The dodge at the end almost cost me the game....

[dawn plume]

main evidence is that models for heatran and thundurus were added in recent updates and havent been used anywhere yet

[raven crane]

Even using the datamine, its crunch time for prep until it starts.

[true tartan]

then you see manisura making as many tornadus duos as possible lol

[dreamy warren]

I think new difficultly levels are more likely

[raven crane]

Go for it, more power to those who want to make use of all the time.

[dawn plume]

dont make moltres harder

[raven crane]

Plausible enough, it was just 2023 that we got Terrakion and Registeel, no?

[dreamy warren]

+suffer

[worn skiff]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1100527495855476916/1134565143406194808/image.png?width=902&height=178

[dawn plume]

and raikou yeah

[raven crane]

Yeah.

[dreamy warren]

La is done with all the type weaknesses I think

[raven crane]

Uxie was the last arena before.. Terrakion or Registeel I forget which came first.

[dawn plume]

after they dropped registeel the next month dropped the first ultimate battle

[raven crane]

But it was over a year of static to that point.

[dreamy warren]

might be why they stopped doing new las

[dawn plume]

i figure that was the replacement... or something

[true tartan]

added

[dawn plume]

ah yes bar 1 of regirock is weak to grass every weakness is covered

[dreamy warren]

they wanted to have an actually epic 1 single super hard battle

la kinda became the opposite

[vagrant crypt]

👌

[kind imp]

That and ice weak being bar 3 latios (I forgot poison smh)

At least rock, fairy and flying got two bars

And water gets four

[rocky oasis]

poison might as well not exist

bulu bar 2 hits like a wet noodle after the sure crit

[kind imp]

Also slightly frailer and decently faster, kinda weird

[worthy horizon]

rng on koga solo would suck so much more

[rocky oasis]

bulu bar 1 is suprisingly obnoxious on some solos

those fuckign flinches and spdef drops

crit seed bomb can fuck you over but thats it

bar 3 is just painful

[worthy horizon]

yea bar 1 can really suck if you're not just overpowering it

gets so much worse the slower you need to take it

bar 2 is just a chance to breathe after eating crit seed bomb and before taking wood hammers

[kind imp]

Vampire solos on bar 1 are kinda funny

A battle of attrition to see who gets outhealed

And then you get flinched and it stops being funny

[rocky oasis]

dont you mean the azelf clemont solo

Miserable solo

i hate it

[worthy horizon]

kali's the only one i know that would match that description, don't remember doing any other drain solos that sound like that

[rocky oasis]

allister

any crit will kill you

[worthy horizon]

maylene was recently done and fits

[kind imp]

*bulu bar 1

Bc you hit him and heal, he hits you and heals

[worthy horizon]

btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSs6BiQOdQs

this was lower investment than what i was doing my attempts with

[rocky oasis]

valerie too

[kind imp]

Also NY Lillie off-type gears and l.elesa

[river cliff]

Rosa's bulu solo can be pretty iffy sometimes

[rocky oasis]

i lowered a solo and it refused to record

rip

the latios dc gladion solo can be done w/o energy

[dawn plume]

of all arenas entei was the only one to not get a new solo added to it today (one got lowered)

[rocky oasis]

and i got it

[worthy horizon]

latios is 2 ex +0e

latias?

[rocky oasis]

latias yes

[worthy horizon]

gotcha

gg

[rocky oasis]

uploading rn

doing it w/o +10 requires MS

https://youtu.be/2Nluqsm7JFk?si=D6uZF3P9qsizvn2Q

figured it was possible bc his sync is already so weak

[dawn plume]

nice only 2 tm mprs

i think dodging that icy wind bar 3 was required

or just dodges in general

[worthy horizon]

what do you think about raikou?

[rocky oasis]

🤷

[worthy horizon]

well i'll try it then

[stuck mantle]

Best is speed form no SA i went bar 3 too. Bar 1 is easy . Bar need avoid fly. And alot recover need.

[bitter gate]

Should I superawaken Lysandre or Rose

[true tartan]

what your heart says

[worthy horizon]

2 mprs with 1 at start and no para can do it

[true tartan]

you want to destroy Kalos

or Galar?

[bitter gate]

I have no heart, only bren

[true tartan]

[bitter gate]

[worthy horizon]

single mpr no para

rose might want it more

[bitter gate]

Lysandre might get more solos with it

And with less RNG

I think

Rose can get Azelf, Latias is a big if

[hollow ether]

How hard on 3rd bar with no SA?

[stuck mantle]

Hard tell since i die on start😂 no recover but this was the best run. Since i got hit 1 vs fly. I did not use vigi fly guard so heat wave deal alot damage . 10/5 can use vigi in grid. Depend on damage and recover mp daze also was on bar 3 . You sure need good dr fly gears for it.

[hollow ether]

Yours was 3/5?

[stuck mantle]

No 5/5 10 e

I use mind games from grid

[rocky oasis]

lithe?

[stuck mantle]

Now you have from passive so can run vigi

[hollow ether]

Relying TM recover is rough for me 🤣

[stuck mantle]

Yes recover is realy bad mp

[hollow ether]

Turns out with Int immunity as LS, torn do not use Swagger hmmm

[true tartan]

yep

tornadus does check if it can use swagger

[stuck mantle]

Yeap don’t use

[rocky oasis]

if youre lucky enough to not need lithe you might as well run MS and hope for good mgr and mpr luck

[stuck mantle]

Its in my all runs better use fly guard

[true tartan]

or unflappable

[stuck mantle]

Since need hope you dont hit your self when confuse

Need hope no flinch too🤣

[true tartan]

but yeah, Flying guard does help pretty well in the early

[hollow ether]

But it will hit hard with confusion synergy tho

[true tartan]

to tank way better

[worthy horizon]

ft2, lithe will have to put up with -2 speed

[stuck mantle]

Yes he hit but then you get hit more offem if no confuse

And no fly guard he deal way more damage

Just need get lucky vs flinch and condusion

[hollow ether]

Ig i will try switch to fly guard

With atk raised, can also improve sync damage

[stuck mantle]

Roll for fly dr skill gears

And get 100 special attack and 50 special def from it

This help you vs damage and tank

[worthy horizon]

also i used +2e and got extra triple axel tile so that can matter, bit of extra rng can always compensate ofc

[hollow ether]

This run, the skill gear was 2% atk move reduction

Oh it's 3%, not 2%

[worthy horizon]

not doing anything so i can do more attempts

[true tartan]

attempts on?

[worthy horizon]

dc gladion vs raikou

3/5 +2e

[true tartan]

ah

thought it was Steven

[stuck mantle]

Attack is only for physical moves

You need flying moves p moves

[worthy horizon]

lol no, i have no ss steven

[true tartan]

Attack Move DR is for both moves Adam

Special or Physical

just not Syncs

[stuck mantle]

Lol haha i was always think is physical🤣

[true tartan]

if it is physical

it literally says: Physical

[stuck mantle]

I just you now attack you have tm for x attack and its for physical moves

Good too now haha

But still is only 3%

[true tartan]

Attack as stat is different as Attack as move

[stuck mantle]

You need way more for tank hits

But good is for both moves since some my gears have this is nice lol

This was my steven gear wat help me get too bar 3.

[karmic willow]

anyone got steven yet?

[stuck mantle]

Ishida try but stuck on bar 3

Since recover mp is bad

[karmic willow]

unlucky

[stuck mantle]

My is 5/5 so i cant pass bar 3🤣

[true tartan]

just making him Superawakened

[stuck mantle]

I was plan but did on other unit since his 10/5 passive is meh. And if no lg im not plan spend candy just for do 1 stage and its all. Too much invest. When lg dena bring back then is different . For now im wait;) Not spend recourse.

[rocky oasis]

got to 57% w/o tm mpr

[hollow ether]

Why torn why? 🤣

Just need 1 more TM recover and done 🤣

Still use int immune as LS

[true tartan]

so close

[stuck mantle]

Yeap nice

[hollow ether]

On 3rd bar, need 3 sync to finish

And that run, i got 3 Recover MPR

[stuck mantle]

Psycho do 100 damage? Or you use zen

[hollow ether]

Zen

I used zen to make the queue fast

[stuck mantle]

Since no room for free bogo in grid

But you got good flinch -5 special

[hollow ether]

Psycho deal 4-5% dmg

[hollow ether]

Yep, we can debuff until -5 only for both atk & sp atk

Since torn have lessen int 3

So only have 2 chances to flinch

[stuck mantle]

I use it befor but switch for free move

Since could spam it

I was -4 special max some run

[rocky oasis]

@worthy horizon got it

just uploading rn

got really lucky w/ evasion tho

[worthy horizon]

aight nice

i stopped when i saw you were attempting

mighta found a better grid/ls than i did

[rocky oasis]

same grid as the latias one

just uses MS

[worthy horizon]

put some more attempts here, pinned gear a while ago for this but it's been too boring to attempt too much lol

ideal mpr count and debuffs to get maximum gradual healing but i can use a grid with more ember damage

[rocky oasis]

gl

looks like its up there w/ sc lillie levels of boring

[worthy horizon]

yeah it's pretty awful but somehow still better than lodge kabu, no idea how that one ever got done still

[rocky oasis]

https://youtu.be/Hg402bRnVCo?si=R90g-QxwR7o-VEOj

already had MS on gladion

[worthy horizon]

i kinda ignored mgr on grid for some reason even though i did my first attempts with mad strength

[rocky oasis]

and i needed a bit of extra dmg for latias so i ran it

bc no sync mult

[worthy horizon]

yeah i think it's just the better ls for him

[rocky oasis]

gauge is kinda inconsistent tho

only problem

but i made it work... somehow

idk if he can get more

maybe if you got a million mpr and misses vs uxie

gl tho

he is fighting weak unfortunately

and no crit

i think his best bet is uxie

[worthy horizon]

he doesn't have trouble making it to bar 2 without too much luck and not eating crit iron tails

got there on 0 mpr and died to crit swift

[rocky oasis]

i gotta sleep unfortunately

[worthy horizon]

gn

[bright brook]

Let's welcome the newest member of the 14/14 club

[bitter gate]

who

[chrome halo]

drum noises

[bitter gate]

It's either the dog or the alien

My guess is the alien

[chrome halo]

I bet it's the mafia dog

[hallow gull]

I bet the dog

[karmic willow]

arven

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[hallow gull]

[karmic willow]

6/5 already doable

[bitter gate]

so it was the dog?

[bright brook]

Yea it's the dog

[hallow gull]

Dò

[bitter gate]

who dunnit

[bright brook]

Youre talking to him

[median swan]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-arven-arven-pokemon-pokemon-arven-pecharunt-gif-15265939047242543003

[bright brook]

I actually planned to SA him but got the solo at 6/5 so

His SA passives are so broken

[chrome halo]

The unexpected outcome

[bitter gate]

cgz to arven

steven is washed

[bright brook]

Someone will get him

[hallow gull]

I’m surprise Steven isn’t 14/14 yet ngl

[bright brook]

Eventually

And by someone i mean snow

[dreamy warren]

flip a coin

best way to decide things

[worthy horizon]

yea i mentioned rose bc he might need it just to be a better solo unit overall and be less rng dependent

lysandre is already very good in the places he does work

[dreamy warren]

flipping a coin is funnier tho

[worthy horizon]

if you can't favor one choice over the other that can help push to make an actual decision

[bitter gate]

I might do that

thing is I'd be using two regulars + two strikes

So I'll wait first

no rush

[bright brook]

https://youtu.be/ZRm20bbSOyc?si=2J2Wcc9zjmKw1-sU

[bitter gate]

Nah, there was no risk the whole game

wut

That's a balanced LG unit right there

[bright brook]

Yippi

Dude's so strong

And he gets good SA passives too...

[median swan]

not him ending at full health omg

congraaats

[bitter gate]

meanwhile Anabel:

life is unfair

[worthy horizon]

unfort

[bitter gate]

She's more meant for the "hard 3 v 3s", not so much LG and the other places

she can also duo with eggmons as well

[bright brook]

Ty ty

Yea honestly he wins after getting past bar 1

https://youtu.be/78R16CbJ2sg?si=6dv8_ojh4fUS7HZ-

[bitter gate]

Ahh, she decided to invest in him

Told you he could do it

No risk at all, again

lol

Cobalion time

[median swan]

not him also ending at full health wtf

[tender horizon]

Wow

[bitter gate]

all this is pointing at me investing in Rose or something

[worthy horizon]

still needs +6 defenses it looks like so 4 mprs unless she just got luckier than she needed to be, didn't watch much

[bitter gate]

because apparently people are doing all the other stuff

[bitter gate]

she never went below 30% health tbh

Ehh fuck it, Imma do it

and I'll regret it, I thikn

[bitter gate]

The passive is needed for this

-3 ramp actually helps a lot

This is 9/5

[bitter gate]

Really a matter of impeccable flinching but

one more candy and I get it, I think

the ramp really helps

[dreamy warren]

I hate brutal swing on torn

it hurts so bad on Lear

[brisk sapphire]

Good luck

[bitter gate]

Ladies and gentlemen

We got em

Didn't need 10/5 either

[brisk sapphire]

Nice

[bitter gate]

That took a ridiculous amount of luck, mind you

I got really lucky flinches

[tender horizon]

Elepant

[bitter gate]

too bad it's the only solo he can do

unless he can do Uxie or something, maybe?

Idt he can

[gleaming cypress]

just flinch more

how do you keep gauge alive with him

[bitter gate]

he is gaugeless for 2 cycles

with the 5/5 tile

all his solos use that to rush or die

essentially

[tender horizon]

Uxie Lol no

[bitter gate]

Idt Latias is doable

because his steel field runs out before I even pass the second bar fsr

[median swan]

terrak?

[bitter gate]

idt SDF counts towards Clear Advantage

or does it

[median swan]

it should

[bitter gate]

Hmm

[median swan]

as long as it's on terrak's side it counts

[bitter gate]

would need impeccable RNG, again

Since he actually just gets rekt

by any hit

but I guess I'll try

yeah if you take even one hit you die

so it means you need like

perfect

[median swan]

oof

[bitter gate]

Tho I think with the passive

and the extra ramp

it should be doable

probably also needs Vigilance

[inner turret]

It's any field effect that affects terrakion

Reflect would work if we could apply it to him

[bitter gate]

Let me check the ranges then

[inner turret]

2 Cinderace and not a single one with court change

[pliant glen]

Big yawn

[bitter gate]

I need the extra candy

one sync did half, it was my first

I think it might be doable, yeah

-3 CD means a faster sync and maybe I can do it right on time

i got to bar 3

hmm

do I wanna run CS2 and just

greed

lol

[tender horizon]

Candying just for lg is unthinkable for me

[bitter gate]

that's what both of my awakenings are for tho

kek

aight, so essentially

Rose needs to godflinch t1

because if he takes EQ, he dies to any hit after that

and rock smash already takes half his health

[stuck mantle]

Haha nice done vs uxie

I super him not stevens:) i like rose

Only his super should extend free move longer would be it

[bitter gate]

then go to terrakion lol

go do*

the extra ramp and speed can help you with it

just get godlike flinch luck

also if you had it you should've done Azelf lol

Tldr; you need to only take rock smash

Ideally sync goes to half bar

Or you flinch

Then calm mind

Then flinch

[stuck mantle]

I can try have some free time at work now

Wat grid you use?

[bitter gate]

Take vigilance

[stuck mantle]

I always use crit 2 on his solo

[bitter gate]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/26200/87900?s=5&l=140&r=5&p=0&a=0&g=AAECAwQFBwgKDA8VFhcaIDQ1

[bitter gate]

You can

But then you need to flinch like

Everything

Vigilance means you can take at least one hit after the rock smash

[stuck mantle]

I have decent gears like 10% damage on him

Plus 50 physical def

No flinch insta dead🤣

But yeah if get flinch you can win but this would need 5 hits on bar 3

So you need like 2/3 flinch on bar 3

[bitter gate]

Or a sync

Tbh I'd rather you spend more time in bar 2

And sync bar 3

[gleaming cypress]

yeah I can see it winning but only after flinching every move and with good DR gear

then again stuff like the bugsy bulu solo exists so I won’t discount this

[bitter gate]

It's also a fast clear

So there's technically less variance

[stuck mantle]

He sure no need vigi

Since i try this way and bar 3 eq kill any way

Was 4 times bar 3 but got zero flinch

Got half bar 3 if he flinch it win

You need 2 flinch bar 3 eq and when you go half bar 3

1 flinch bar 1 2 bar 2 and 2 bar 3

Its all

If use crit 2

Lol

[bitter gate]

mfw 2shot

damn

[gleaming cypress]

how many candies does bro have

[karmic willow]

idk

infinite

i am more concerned about the

250 PR

holy shit

where are you guys at

me at 180

peasant 😦

maybe if this dumb game wants me to spend more they should have made more training rallies 🗣️

i'm serious

[shy sinew]

I think I just hit 146 and stopped buying the stamina daily bundle a while ago, it was super useful when I was catching my account back up but what am I going to do with it now, grind the theme skill area?

[karmic willow]

i bet he's spending all his money for

the codexes needed for S.A

500 for a pair

[shy sinew]

170-180 seems perfectly reasonable for people who have been playing since the start of the PR system, 250 is up there way beyond the reasonable limit

[karmic willow]

i've only bought it like

3-4 times i think?

once last month

3 times when titles firstr launched for Rosa Super Fan ttile

that was probably it

45 more days and i would be playing this game for 2000 days

damn

😦

[shy sinew]

I stopped buying it around when titles dropped but that was when I got everyone to 140 with lucky skills and would have just been throwing the stamina at 7 skill spheres for 20 energy for the most part. That was probably close to 20 PR ago now for me

[gleaming cypress]

isn't the mathematically determined maximum PR with purchasing stamina every day somewhere in the 220s

there was definitely a reddit post on the topic

PR in the 300s is illegitimate no matter how you look at it since you can only buy so much stamina every day

but people do have that

[karmic willow]

you got a reddit post for that?

i remember making a post calculating funny stuff once too

like

+10E for everyone

even if you whale that's gonna take FOUR years

[shy sinew]

oh and don’t forget we get at least 6-7 new pairs a month and don’t have the orbs for all of them

last couple months have been 9 new pairs, +10E for everyone is actually a losing battle

[karmic willow]

yeah it was made

when the cap was first introduced

sheesh

[sturdy steeple]

arv

[dawn plume]

just a boy and his dog

[karmic willow]

arv

[bright brook]

The 2 members of the 14/14 clubs in 2025 are all dark type

[karmic willow]

steven gonna be soon

[bright brook]

Signalling a year of darkness

[sturdy steeple]

its true

[rotund rain]

There will be a Darc Arc soon

So… makes sense

[true tartan]

now it is a full damage unit

with no sustain again

[bright brook]

Leon moment

[gleaming cypress]

who needs sustain if you can hit hard enough

dark arc suit is in datamines... who knows

[bright brook]

Still a bit of sustain/utility is needed.

Take poppy

Her good utility in charging infliction, debuffs and her sustain in endurance is what accommodates her solos, and she's known to be a heavy damage dealing unit

[gleaming cypress]

true

[inner turret]

Ok, here's "a bit of sustain"

[gleaming cypress]

even arc leon which was memed on has a protect, guaranteed burn, fire DF and max healer

already more than alot of strikes

[lost juniper]

Arc Leon doesn't have sustain, but he checks a lot of LA gimmicks and his damage is absurdly high

[bitter gate]

Yeah, he can typically just blitz through

[bright brook]

This isn't a bit, this is just pure garbage

[gleaming cypress]

"congrats you get to tank one extra move"

[inner turret]

It's a bit

[bitter gate]

Meanwhile Rose:

no sustain, just flinch

[stuck mantle]

Rose reffuse flinch vs bar 3.🤣

[bitter gate]

you need multiple ones in a row, yeah

That or you need to use your sync against it

[stuck mantle]

I try tomorrow

Sync i use bar 2

Bar 3 i need 2 flinch its all

[true tartan]

what's the grid

ah, saw the description, dislike the damn short thing lol

hmmmm

something is bad

aight, it works now lol

[bitter gate]

Is there a way to make it

Not a short

This is my shortest solo vid ever I think

[stuck mantle]

Vid need more then 3m

[sturdy steeple]

only in embeds, not for the video itself

[true tartan]

just put the link in a non-short format

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuQ-r_-FocQ

and that's it

[bitter gate]

thx

Now to wait for the Terrakion solo I guess

[true tartan]

a good res image of the solos :T

[bitter gate]

do we get NY Raihan 14 within 24 hours

lol

[true tartan]

depends on Rafa

[bitter gate]

Anyways, will sleep now

gn

[rotund rain]

gn

[raven crane]

Still no one getting Steven.

Raihan probably gonna take the title!!

[tender horizon]

King Arc Steven

[tender horizon]

Hes gonna take some time

[raven crane]

Iono Rafa at all, but I got the feeling he would be quite motivated...

[raven crane]

What's the color coding?

I remember looking at it yesterday and being curious.

[brisk sapphire]

Who is Rafa again

[raven crane]

Never mind think I get it.

[hallow gull]

Raihan’s fan with a lot of miss crit Sync

He left the sever tho

[brisk sapphire]

Oh lmao RIP

Oof

What's their username on the doc clears

Can't access atm
