nov's not-much-but-it's-honest-work Gauntlet clears

[pure pollen]

How many total streaks are you at now nov?

[shadow burrow]

18 x 3 = 54, but she hasnt done Latios #18 yet so i think 53 streaks

[pure pollen]

Damn

[shadow burrow]

You are doing good job nov

[raven timber]

math

yeah i'm at 53. ideally i would streak during the weekend like crazy but it's midterm season and my internship work is also piling up

[shadow burrow]

RIP

Focus on your irl stuff

[pure pollen]

yea it do be like that

[warped kettle]

how did you do this without paralysis

how did you stay sane

[raven timber]

tech pinsir has body slam!

with hostile environment 1 too i think

60% paralysis is fiiiine

[warped kettle]

KALI SWEEP???????

[raven timber]

you should try it!

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

well i actually don't know if you've used kali or not

[warped kettle]

oh huh. i will see if I have Pinsir

and I have used her but that is fine

[raven timber]

or just any eggmon that has a decent paralysis chance and can give itself gradual heal

pinsir survived to bar 3 because i spaced out the TM uses so i could keep getting gradual heals

[warped kettle]

damn

[raven timber]

...also because i gave it vigilance

[warped kettle]

worth

[raven timber]

tanked the super effective heat wave like a champ!

[shadow burrow]

most of paralysis eggmon are weak to Flying or Fire so Vigilance is the way

[raven timber]

i'm torn between using support kanga for potions or tech kanga who can debuff defense and flinch

help

i suppose the debuff is more valuable in this rotation specifically

[warped kettle]

'steel also never gets immune to flinch iirc, so it'd be a great 'mon against it

[raven timber]

i really value potion eggmons. sometimes that's all i need to make a duo less stressful

units with actual potion MPRs feel way too overkill

[raven timber]

Latios #18
I caved... I did the solo...

[hard grotto]

idk if i want to do that solo or use her somewhere else

im catching up tho

[raven timber]

what's your streak goal?

i've been slacking been very busy

[hard grotto]

50

[raven timber]

my goal is 75. higher if i can manage

i need to do 21 more clears in 8 days....

[hard grotto]

oh im probably going above 75

i just need to find the time

[raven timber]

Holy shit 1/5 EX Rei is too powerful, even tech alolan persian feels overkill

should i even keep this clear

registeel barely moved bruh

[hard grotto]

use a 40% flincher ig kek

[raven timber]

ran out i think (at least eggmon wise)

i only have a 30% flincher left

[spark pasture]

You should stop at funny number for the 2nd straight LG

[raven timber]

no

[shadow burrow]

Tate fix lel

[raven timber]

Registeel #19
Surely two 30% flinchers won't fail me right? Right?

This clear took me an HOUR

[pure pollen]

Damn even with the guaranteed from Rei?

[shadow burrow]

smh nov go to sleep

its 12 am

💀

[raven timber]

Well it's only once per sync cycle and I need to save it preferably for the sure crit EQ

[pure pollen]

ah right

[raven timber]

Latios #19
Overkill team all three are weak to water so it made me worried but Latios is just so weak and Silver is an amazing nuker

[hard grotto]

silver can solo lol

[spark pasture]

its almost 1:30pm in my timezone and i'm probably more asleep than you

[hard grotto]

so yeah of course it went well

[raven timber]

No thank you

The silver solo looks terrible

[hard grotto]

i mean

as terrible as the blue solo ?

[raven timber]

That's why i didn't do the blue solo!

[spark pasture]

do the blue solo

[shadow burrow]

[shadow burrow]

do Bugsy solo

[raven timber]

No

I have Skill Issue

[spark pasture]

Scyther or Beedrill

[shadow burrow]

both

[spark pasture]

or

themed Bugsy duo

[shadow burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-the-misery-enemy-cat-sprigatito-pokemon-scarlet-and-violet-gif-26114833

[raven timber]

What duo, I only have one Bugsy

[spark pasture]

oh right, that sync pair is as rare as Jessie and James

[shadow burrow]

even rarer than Holiday ?

[fleet elbow]

Holiday Siebold is yearly

so there’s a chance he spooks some people pulling for other past holiday units

like Holiday Jasmine and Whitney soon

[raven timber]

as always, this tornadus clear is taking way too much time and it's 1 am so i'm going to sleep

[hard grotto]

tornadus moment

starting to think i prefer latias over tornadus

[raven timber]

i don't want to declare a preference

it will bite me back later

[raven timber]

Tornadus #19
I tried doing BP Clemont + Selene DPS and relied on Synchro Healing but it just wasn't working so... Nuke it is

[alpine dome]

Stealing11 (BPClemont, SSErika EX duo on Torn - easier, more convenient clear)

[alpine dome]

Registeel #20
More overkill teams because we only have around a week left and I still have about 20 more clears to do!!!

[shadow burrow]

[warped kettle]

ooh i might steal that team

[worn herald]

How is that overkill

[shadow burrow]

everyone is overkill with SS Blue

[alpine dome]

yeah. seems to be hard to find something "optimally budget" with him nowadays

[raven timber]

this is why i still haven't used NC Bede

even soloing Latios with him feels overkill

and i don't want to fish for mind games procs on regi

Tornadus #20
How people solo Tornadus with Volkner is beyond me

[raven timber]

Latios #20
Win 60! Just 15 or so left RAAAAAAGH

[raven timber]

Registeel #21
Cringing at how Overkill ™️ and Not Budget ™️ this was, but I have to speedrun 15 or so more wins while being bombarded with midterms and internship work

[warped kettle]

i love how this is considered overkill 😭

[fleet elbow]

I waa about to say 😭

[warped kettle]

there's 3 units in the team, automatically overkill

[raven timber]

because it is 😭

[raven timber]

even some duos are overkill

some Latios solos are even considered wasteful

but at the end of the day, "overkill" is subjective depending on how far you want to climb

[hard grotto]

I wouldnt say 3 units is automatically overkill

But yeah Rosa could use lesser units

For example I dont think my triple egg team on Registeel is overkill lol

[raven timber]

yeah i think Gakon did a more budget Lodge Rosa team

[warped kettle]

Y'all are absolutely wild

🧎

[raven timber]

i appreciate the compliment

i genuinely enjoy this game mode

[fleet elbow]

Yeah I had to use Dawn and SS Misty with Lodge Rosa

granted, none of those units were EX and Lodge Rosa wasn’t even 5 stars

[raven timber]

Latios #21
Urk, 1/5 summer N...

12 MORE CLEARS NOV AAAAAA

[spark pasture]

holy shit nov, slow down a lil lol

[shadow burrow]

[spark pasture]

YOU TOO GAKON!!!

[shadow burrow]

[spark pasture]

you did like 30 clears while i was asleep, i just haven't commented on your thread yet

[shadow burrow]

No they were clears from Friday, i just forgot to write notes lel

You didnt sleep for 3 days, right?

[spark pasture]

with work it felt like a hibernation

[raven timber]

i need to get at least 75 by the end of this LG and I don't know how many streaks I can do during the weekdays

[hard grotto]

I would like to reach 100
Im at like 56 yikes

[raven timber]

Tornadus #21
Somehow I forgot to post this. Yikes Hurricane hits hard

Tornadus #22
I got tired of fishing for paralysis procs on Toxic so I sacked Wulfric to eat it and die

Also I might have to move some tanks to Latios because... I'm running out of tanks for Latios

[raven timber]

Latios #22
Look away LG madmen, these teams are too overkill

[spark pasture]

Right amount of kill

[raven timber]

Registeel #22
I'm too weak to do the CBede solo (read: I don't want to give him Mind Games)
I screwed up my last Accelerock use so Kukui died on bar 3 Earthquake... Bede solo'd from then on

so today I did... 10 clears that's enough for today i guess, it's past midnight

also i'm in the top 500 not for long, I'm sure, but whooo top 500

[spark pasture]

Pseudo solo

[raven timber]

in an alternate timeline this LG and last LG rotations are switched and I would have been able to streak very high during uni break

[hard grotto]

ok this team actually is so overkill lmfao

[hard grotto]

Catching up I have exactly 1 less clear than you (if you're still at 66 that is)

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

I was asleep so yeah

I have around 9 clears left i need to do so I think I can afford overkill now

[alpine dome]

first time?

[alpine dome]

lowkey might steal this since I don't have an Evelyn team yet

[raven timber]

Get a cheaper damage dealer, that was very easy especially with supp kanga

[raven timber]

First time Tai is streaking I believe. And it won't be the last

[warped kettle]

[alpine dome]

trying Adaman solo again

[raven timber]

Latios #23
Rosa tanked a Double Edge. At -2 defense. How did Rosa tank a Double Edge

[shadow burrow]

eww brazil rosa

[raven timber]

Whaaat. Brazil Rosa isn't so bad!

Tornadus #23
EX Marley appreciation

[worn herald]

We love EX Marley

[worn herald]

Rosa is good!

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

Registeel #23
Is it overkill to bring a vampire unit with a healer? Yes. In other news, I've tied with my highest personal best: nice number!

[shadow burrow]

i wonder if that duo suffers from gauge or not

[spark pasture]

ok nov stop now or your clears won't be nice anymore

[raven timber]

it did, a bit

"I want to do one Tornadus clear before sleep but apparently it's taking longer than I thought" is starting to become a pattern

fuck you tornadus

[hard grotto]

Lol

I feel you

[raven timber]

Tornadus #24
I officially broke my personal best gosh this was so stressful... In my winning run Surge got flinched before he could queue another Thunder Wave, got killed, and I took a gamble and used Flare Blitz which killed Hilda but was enough to kill Tornadus as well

[spark pasture]

good jov, nov

job

[pure pollen]

woo congrats!

[raven timber]

Tornadus continues to piss me off. That's enough LG for today

[devout lichen]

Good job, nob

[warped kettle]

Tornadus is legit the goddamn worst my gawd

SELF CLEANSE 2 I HATE YOU

[raven timber]

Fr, even with a guaranteed paralysis unit like Surge

cursed image

[raven timber]

Haunts my dreams

I reckon at the very least I should post a recap of my teams atm

wait aaaa cheryl and ghetsis's positions are wrong

[worn herald]

They're in their proper positions, with the tank on the left

[raven timber]

hmm why did I list supp wigglytuff twice

[devout lichen]

Lodge Rosa, my favourite tank

[raven timber]

ah okay Tornadus #9 should have Supp Clefable lol

Recapping how my tanks dealt with Tornadus's toxic!
SST Red: Charged Immunity on grid
Sycamore: heals via TM
Marlon: antitoxin on grid
SSA Cynthia: antitoxin on grid
Cheryl: healing hand and pray
Champion Blue: heals via B move
Erika: honestly i forgor. i think i waited until rain dance?
SS Brendan: i also forgot how i dealt with toxic lol. i think i also had to wait until rain dance before paralyzing
Clay: antitoxin innate
BP Barry: natural remedy innate
Piers: i didn't paralyze tornadus at all
Supp Wigglytuff: antitoxin lucky skill
Liza: natural remedy on grid
Red: antitoxin on grid
Lodge giovanni: natural remedy innate
supp venusaur: antitoxin innate
SS Dawn: heals on sync
SS elesa: pray paralysis proc on Toxic
BP Clemont: antitoxin on grid
Brock: pray paralysis procs on Toxic or flinch Toxic and nuke past half bar 1
Skyla: didn't paralyze tornadus at all
Sonia: brought wulfric to attract aggro, ate the toxic, and die because i was tired
Marley: heals via TM
Bp surge: sync cure on grid
Drake: Sync cure on grid
Clemont: dodge it or paralysis procs on Toxic
Swimsuit Misty: Full Heal
Lodge Acerola: dodge via Phantom Force
Lodge Morty: dodge it or paralysis procs on Toxic
Champion Calem: Status Immunity innate (water form)

@warped kettle how many pairs you gave antitoxin for this LG?

[warped kettle]

huh

i didn't take notes of this detail but i wish I did

I definitely gave it to SC Jasmine (it was that or Vigilance and while she has them both on her grid, I could only pick one for the build I wanted)

[raven timber]

i remember because the only times toxic genuinely became an issue was the SS Elesa and Brock team

so many resets....

[devout lichen]

You couldn’t afford Group Therapy?

[raven timber]

on who?

oh, brock

yeah no it's too expensive and i focused on potion tiles

[devout lichen]

Games reflect life; therapy is too expensive

[raven timber]

it's fine really, volkner can at least flinch the toxic for a bit

it's the ss elesa team that took an insanely long time

[shadow burrow]

skill issue

i could pick all potion and group therapy just fine

[raven timber]

i picked that MGR5 tile

[alpine dome]

SShilbert move level?

oh nvm

[raven timber]

Latios #24
Some people are using this duo on Tornadus but I don't have the willpower for that

[hard grotto]

so you run it on latios instead which makes super overkill ? kek

[raven timber]

I sure did

I'd do cheaper teams but there's less than a week left and uni is overwhelming

Registeel #24
Courtney is so good man

1 more cycle to reach my goal, I can definitely do more than 75 but we'll see if I have the time

i still have two CS themed clears I want to cook!

[low harbor]

Nov help

[raven timber]

that team was cheryl TM MPR galore

if possible, torn gets para'd on toxic

if not, pray healing hand procs quickly

or just wait until torn queues the good ol' rain dance

[low harbor]

It’s rough

[raven timber]

like i said, cheryl mpr galore

[hard grotto]

really ?

i don't think i got any lol

yeah i double checked i didn't use a single tm mpr

[raven timber]

i needed a fuckton because ghetsis refused to crit his sync again and again

it wasn't even funny

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

i have this issue with ghetsis

half convinced he has innate -2 crit rate on sync

[raven timber]

"i want to sleep but i want to do one tornadus clear before bed but it's taking far longer than i thought" the saga continues

[spark pasture]

Need parental controls on the phone to limit playtime

[alpine dome]

me casually bypassing my own "parental controls"

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

every LG season i am tempted to EX Drake for more bulk

[hard grotto]

the sequel the vengence 2

& knuckles

[spark pasture]

EX Drake

Do it

[hard grotto]

I EX'd drake

fuck this clear

[spark pasture]

Are you even actually trying LG unless you EX Drake

[raven timber]

i'm at a nice number of 98 EXs, i don't want to EX any more

my 99 and 100th EXs will be Ethan and Serena for Richu's birthday

[hard grotto]

idk how many EXs i have

but I have like 10-12 more than at the start of lg lmao

[spark pasture]

When is Richu’s birthday?

I’m at 101 or 102 EX units

[raven timber]

same as me! we're the same person

[spark pasture]

Lies, Richu would never tryhard LG

[pure pollen]

Is it nov 9th completely random & wild guess

[raven timber]

i'm trying drake/mc pikachu/arcablue, which at first i thought was overkill, before i remembered arcablue's only saving grace is being ontype and he's bad anywhere else

[raven timber]

oh jeez what gave it away

[pure pollen]

I'm just really good at guessing birthdays!

[hard grotto]

2 paralysis units in 1

[raven timber]

that 30% paralysis from mcchu might as well not count

basically i need a potion bot

[spark pasture]

You have to have some clear ready for nov 9th

[raven timber]

aw man it's the middle of the week...

[spark pasture]

For the theme!

[spark pasture]

Too bad it wasnt on a Sunday for Chezei theme

[raven timber]

dw this week i'm probably doing a chezei theme

i need to speedrun LG a little bit more

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

Tornadus #25
Phew
I made it my mission to always use all 5 Blues in every LG. Arcablue is always the hardest to slot because outside of Cobalion, it's hard to slot him in. Being weak to Ground does not help

[spark pasture]

EX Drake soon ok

[raven timber]

No

[raven timber]

Latios #25
Wanted to duo but i figured i'll just... Throw a flincher

Registeel #25
"Nov why aren't you using solgaleo to bruteforce torn!!!" Because i can't deal with the hurricane spam 😭 at least on regi he's ontype...

Wally was carrying hard though, but wdym he has no OaR tile for focus blast 😭

I reached my minimum goal! I won't reset just yet, I have a looot of overkill supports left and I have no idea who to pair them with!

[hard grotto]

what hurricane spam

it was a super easy duo

[raven timber]

I have skill issue

I tried one run and went "yeah I'm not in the mood to deal with this"

[shadow burrow]

sad

[warped kettle]

NICE

[spark pasture]

How many sync pairs did you use

[raven timber]

hmm let me check

75 wins, 158 pairs used

i'm barely in the top 400 atm

[spark pasture]

At least you’re ranked

[raven timber]

Latios #26
My least favorite Latios solo so far...

[warped kettle]

How that gauge treat you

[pure pollen]

You poor, poor soul. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy

[warped kettle]

[shadow burrow]

How many Twofer procs were there

[raven timber]

Twofer go brrrrr

[raven timber]

Countless

Registeel #26
I realized this could've been a duo if I had given DC2 to someone smh smh overkill

[raven timber]

Tbf it didn't actually take too long. I did it during class

[alpine dome]

lowkey want to steal this cuz I haven't used Dawn nor Tech Perrserker

[raven timber]

It's a support for dire hit all

Going critless on regi is a nightmare

So i just played with +2 crit instead

She wants the crit I believe, I don't think she can survive the hyper beam. Even focus blast hurts

[alpine dome]

doesn't she have access to eagle eye or something?

[raven timber]

hmm, that's an extra layer of RNG i don't want to deal with

[shadow burrow]

[alpine dome]

then what is this?

[worn herald]

She has Eagle Eye 1 on Razor Leaf

[raven timber]

honestly save yourself the torment and use a crit buffer lol

dawn doesn't need tech perrserker, she doesn't need the flinches

[worn herald]

Solo Registeel with Dawn, got it

[raven timber]

i'm surprised it hasn't been done yet

[alpine dome]

she might need it if you change your crit source from direct buffs to eagle eye

[raven timber]

theoretically if you get lucky with defense crush 2 and eagle eye, you can do it

[worn herald]

[raven timber]

come on, biggest dawn fan

and do your damn LG while you're at it

[worn herald]

Don't let anyone else do it and I'll try!

[alpine dome]

theoretically? doesn't registeel hit ridiculously hard with both physical and special attacks later during the fight?

[raven timber]

dawn debuffs attack

[alpine dome]

hyper beam:

[raven timber]

yeah which is why you need to skip it

[alpine dome]

flash cannon:

focus blast:

[raven timber]

she survives flash canon just fine

focus blast hurts but she can heal back up

[worn herald]

You could skip the Hyper Beam and dodge the Focus Blast

[raven timber]

i'm not sure about the giga impact because i managed to kill before regi uses it

[worn herald]

As long as it's not Sure Crit, you should be fine

[raven timber]

i guess the problem with dawn solo would be the gauge lol

[alpine dome]

I think of it as an equivalent to bulu's hammer

[alpine dome]

ft2 ls. it's how the bulu solo was done too

[raven timber]

but debuffs where

[worn herald]

I don't think I used FT2 against Bulu

I could probably do DC 2

But then I'd have to get rid of Adrenaline

[raven timber]

sacrifices must be made

[worn herald]

Noooo someone did the NY Dawn solo

I've been working on that for the past two weeks

Wtf they nuked him with Sharp Entry 1

[alpine dome]

maybe skill gears can fix that speed issue

or u can pray for mgr every turn

[raven timber]

do the OG Dawn solo!

[raven timber]

[worn herald]

I looked into skill gears last night and got nothing useful

[alpine dome]

then ig pray for mgr every turn

[worn herald]

I'm gonna try a different solo first

[raven timber]

you have like 5 days

[worn herald]

You're right, I should wait four days

[raven timber]

in this house we respect grindset and punctuality

[pure pollen]

Okay I need to know what is your ideal NY Dawn team? I wanted to do Fallister, SSR Cynthia and NY Dawn but it's so slow and dawn buffs nothing by herself so Allister's hex ramp up takes 3 turns just to max out SpAtk

[worn herald]

That is actually my main team! I linked an off-type clear I did over in my CS thread

[pure pollen]

Having a look

[raven timber]

Tornadus #26
This got much easier when I gave Muk Vigilance

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

Registeel #27
Why am I sleepchaining when I still have a bunch of overkill supports left, I don't know

Also I changed my outfit to Barbie theme!

[hard grotto]

did that with tech venomoth instead

it's flying type so more annoying to use

[raven timber]

did you end up caving and giving it vigilance or flying guard or smething?

[hard grotto]

No lucky skill lmao

[shadow burrow]

geez how did it survive Air Cutter spam

[hard grotto]

That's the neat part

No air cutter

Tornadus self cleansed right as I paralyzed it so after using 2 hurricanes he used 2 hurricanes again

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

i wish that were me

[spark pasture]

How much time did this take

[raven timber]

errrr, a few minutes?

i was literally doing it during class. what a model student I am.

it's funny, even my hardest latios solos took less time than some annoying tornadus or registeel duos

[shadow burrow]

like me back in high school fr fr

[spark pasture]

No wonder you have time, doing LG clears during lecture

[raven timber]

[shadow burrow]

i only play LG in my free time

[raven timber]

this is how i squeeze time doing LG when i'm busy lmao

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

i remember a few months back i was doing ss lyra solo vs entei during in-person class. when my friends were giving a presentation

it was so easy, only took me 2 tries

[pure pollen]

playing PoMa during a lecture is pretty valid, just multitasking

[shadow burrow]

so we should play LG when our friends are giving a presentation to reduce rng needed

got it

[raven timber]

i also did ccalem solo vs entei during an organization meeting

also won pretty easily

the RNG gods are speaking to me, i tell you!

and whenever i try to wind down and play some poma before bed, tornadus will take me two hours

[shadow burrow]

Torn knows how to force you to go to sleep

he failed

[raven timber]

jokes on you, i am not sleeping until i beat up the genie

going to sleep is admitting defeat

[shadow burrow]

but you admitted defeat to N easily

[raven timber]

see, I like N

I don't like the genie

[raven timber]

Tornadus #27
Gosh I'm so tired of this genie already

[raven timber]

Tornadus #28
No way, Nov did two Tornadus clears in the span of half an hour!

Latios #27
I... Forgot to send this. 1/5 VLucas

[hard grotto]

Just like me frfr

[raven timber]

Registeel #28
This could've been a duo smh smh overkill

[rain siren]

What was the problem?

[raven timber]

nothing, i was just tired

[rain siren]

[raven timber]

oh heeey, i barely made it into the top 300 (for now)

i'll probably grind until 90 wins then I'll stop

(probably)

[raven timber]

Latios #28
Tried to duo but i had gauge issues

Or skill issue, whichever one

[shadow burrow]

askually BP Candice can duo with tech Jynx

[raven timber]

I used up support jynx

Also I dislike using BP candice

Registeel #29
The pink matches so well!

[shadow burrow]

i think i will EX Mina... someday

[raven timber]

Tornadus #29
I know there's a Helena/BP Morty team for Torn (was it BP Morty?) but I've never really been able to do it, I always get unlucky with dodging brutal swings

[shadow burrow]

yes there is BP Morty duo, just slap Vigilance on both

altho BP Morty is better on Regi

[raven timber]

guess my problem is that Helena has CS2

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

[warped kettle]

okay correct though, she's Not Good

[raven timber]

Aurochs copying my homework

[low harbor]

You ain’t seen nothing yet

[raven timber]

Gosh I only need to do... Four More Clears ™️

Tornadus is putting me on the brink

[raven timber]

Latios #29
No I don't want to do the Lodge Elesa solo or anything close to that (yet)

Registeel #30
Every LG i always aim to use all 8 Legendary Adventures units and I think I've officially used all of them

[hard grotto]

I still have Hop lol

[raven timber]

Tornadus #30
Final Tornadus team! I saved CCalem for whatever reason and I think it's only proper to use him after he just reran with his new shiny tech rolex (no I don't have his tech rolex). Also my Lodge Serena is still 4* and her nuke is terrifying

[low harbor]

Final!

[raven timber]

also, Rei's gear is SO useful for all the eggmons to tank the air cutters slightly better

thank you, Rei's skill gear

[raven timber]

just 1 more Latios clear and I am DONE

[spark pasture]

I think how you’re finishing LG and some haven’t even started it yet

[low harbor]

You can do LG in a couple hours!

[raven timber]

Fellas

Latios #30
Her

My first Latios clear was Lodge Leaf solo and it's only right to end it with her as well

[pure pollen]

🤝 same

[pure pollen]

woo congrats on 100!

[raven timber]

So, LG #11 stats
Units used: 197 out of (230+59) units
Average units used per clear: 2.19
Units EX'd for this LG: Lucian, Kiawe, Irida, Courtney (not as many as I had thought?)
Units who got DC2 and FT2 lucky skill: countless

[raven timber]

haha I'm only doing 90, but that's already a good 21 clears higher than my previous personal best and I'm so proud of it

[pure pollen]

Yeah I immediately realised after I'd sent it latios #30 but it was a little too late

Still, great streak

[raven timber]

currently at rank 256

[pure pollen]

how far do you expect to fall by the time it's over?

[raven timber]

top 400 maybe?

barely

Oh man this feels great

Full pastel color coordinated google sheets screenshot coming soon

LG #11 full teams!

@low harbor can you unpin the old pic: #1022413718199476255 message and pin the new one instead?

[pure pollen]

damn how organised 👌

[raven timber]

I checked my LG #10 rankings, I ranked 390 with 69 wins

but that was a Moltres gauntlet

So anyway, I'd like to thank everyone whose teams I may have stolen and who has given me advice Thank you to everyone for sticking around and watching my sanity and sleep schedule worsen. Also special thanks to Markiplier whose FNAF UCN videos I binged while streaking LG so I didn't stress over bullshit RNG all alone

Overall it's a very fun and, imo, very beginner friendly LG! So glad to see more people attempting to streak this time around (looking at you, Tai! Hopefully you'll join me in my LG madness for the next LG season too!)

Now I'll be back with banging my head against the wall dealing with CS RNG because I have two themed clears planned also good luck to everyone grinding fire HS next month!

[spark pasture]

looking forward to you grinding fire HS with the rest of us

you have neglected CS so much your stage clear thread is inactive

[raven timber]

ikr

don't worry i'm gonna drop a themed clear so complicated it's gonna make up for the lack of activity there

[raven timber]

me and my exactly 5 fire supports

[spark pasture]

you can wait a couple more days to start your Chezei theme

[raven timber]

no

[spark pasture]

and become a Sunday CS clear player like us

[pure pollen]

Tbf it is 5 out of 6 total

[spark pasture]

you have 83% of the existing fire supports in the game in b4 its 5 out of 7 after datamine

[raven timber]

they boutta drop broken fire units next month, i can feel it

[fleet elbow]

Uh oh
I don’t have SS Morty or Tina

[raven timber]

then you're left with 4 supports

[fleet elbow]

I do have egg Fuecoco though

so uh
Marley, Kiawe, MC Torchic, egg Fuecoco, and
oh

please tell me I’m forgetting someone

OH WAIT EVELYN
thank goodness

[spark pasture]

Can probably put Fuecoco with Leaf

[hard grotto]

This is the reason you have a single thread for everything

[raven timber]

i don't like it, it's messy

[hard grotto]

Well mine either has CS or Gauntlet sooo

[fleet elbow]

I just shove all my clears into a single thread

I’m too concerned about one of them being archived if I had one for Gauntlet and one for CSMM lol

[raven timber]

i have one thread for miscellaneous EBEs and battle challenges that very few of you know the existence of lmao

i'm using it for HS too

maybe I will rename it

[spark pasture]

For you it’s fine because you update it battle by battle

Me I just use one screenshot so an LG or HS thread is not needed

[raven timber]

hmm that's fair

[shadow burrow]

Congrats nov

[devout lichen]

Oh that’s aurochs

[alpine dome]

holdup does Mina need EX for this

[alpine dome]

Stealing11 (TLBlue, Mina EX, Fearow on Registeel)

[alpine dome]

Stealing11 (TLElesa, Lusamine, Support Charizard on Torn)

[raven timber]

I don't think so, you can get away without EX thanks to flinches anyway

[alpine dome]

@raven timber specs for mina team pls

[raven timber]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=003400021000&s0=5&l0=140&r0=6&p0=0&a0=13010602&t0=44444&g0=AAECAwQFHSAiIyQlKSorLS4v&v1=002100010300&s1=5&l1=150&r1=6&p1=0&a1=21010101&t1=44444&g1=AAECAwQFERMWGRocHiEkJigqLQ&v2=002240&s2=1&l2=150&r2=4&p2=0&a2=0&t2=11&n2=3&f2=0
wait until regi uses iron defense then use mina's TM so she can get defense and accuracy buffs

[alpine dome]

oh wow that's actually smart

do you use Mina's TM twice?

[raven timber]

i did, but once is enough tbf

i used it twice (gridded for critical eye) so blue only needs to use TM once and start stomping after that

[low harbor]

What does waiting until rain dance do?

[raven timber]

If tornadus doesn't get paralyzed he will use rain dance, if he's paralyzed he will use toxic

Waiting until rain dance means you can clear half bar 1 without worrying about toxic

[raven timber]

@buoyant pilot i forgot to ask, are you still updating the sheet for community streaks?

[buoyant pilot]

ah Mael does it nowadays but i can add too

[raven timber]

neat, thanks

[low harbor]

So this was a lie

[alpine dome]

Tornadus is just annoying in general, absurdly so.

[raven timber]

why, what happened

[low harbor]

THEY USE RAIN DANCE AND TOXIC

[raven timber]

probably because you paralyzed a bit too early? as in, after they set rain dance, you paralyze them, so their move rotation goes back to air cutter->toxic

let them use rain dance, get past half bar 1, and then paralyze

[low harbor]

[alpine dome]

@buoyant pilot heeeeeeeey... so Community List? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1np_T6SrWzh-rK75EnvPMNLWGZscj58B8BKAyQ0Vgb7U/edit?usp=sharing

[buoyant pilot]

sure thing lol but you can ping me in the LG channel why in nov's thread
also btw Mael handles it too now!

adding it

[alpine dome]

yeah I realized a bit too late that it's in the wrong channel/thread...

I searched "community sheet" and found nov's sheet inclusion request here and immediately pinged you for this. ig I forgot to change channels... mb

[raven timber]

I got rank 420

[worn herald]

[shadow burrow]

[warped kettle]

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

Uxie will be the bottleneck but this is overall a rather easy rotation

it's a repeat of LG4

I knew I couldn't count on dena for creativity

[warped kettle]

At least no 🐦 🔥 in sight

[worn herald]

Still waiting for duck LG

[shadow burrow]

that and Moltres will be my 12-streaks-then-dip-LG

from now on

[worn herald]

Maybe that'll be one I actually grind

[raven timber]

bet

[raven timber]

Moltres is fiiiine

combine bird and duck and maybe i will cry

[warped kettle]

Add rock and it'll really be a party

[raven timber]

hmm. considering I did 69 on Moltres/Latias/Uxie last time, this time I can AT LEAST go that far

I don't know if I can break my current record though

will need lots of damage control and nuking bar 2 because there's only so many status change units

[warped kettle]

Ah fuck that's the gimmick, I forgor

[shadow burrow]

Entei and especially Bulu are free wins tho

[raven timber]

Entei #1
Ahem. Guess who procrastinated on all her responsibilities and forgot gauntlet is today

[pure pollen]

Is this easier than the Uxie solo? As in, will I need to swap out my Adr1 LS?

[shadow burrow]

it requires FT2

or Vigilance if you want to be safe

[pure pollen]

🏃‍♂️ 💨

[raven timber]

my Calem has vigilance

it wasn't too difficult if you know when to use brutal swing for a bit more gauge (avoid getting your speed debuffed by bulldoze, switch to dark form when that is about to happen)

[raven timber]

it's faster than the Uxie solo that's for sure!

[pure pollen]

hmm alrighty

[raven timber]

i don't want to waste my time and sanity bruteforcing Uxie's damage reductions for 15 minutes

[pure pollen]

That's not very LG-player of you

[raven timber]

once you dodge the first fire spin, it's home free

[warped kettle]

Uxie is easy with FT2

[raven timber]

i don't have the tenacity that the LG regulars do

[raven timber]

using silver cookies? in this economy?

[spark pasture]

Nov being responsible!

[raven timber]

I'm such a responsible student! (I neglected my assignments to binge a chinese donghua with a friend)

Uxie #1
I keep getting 10% paralyzed wtf

[warped kettle]

does that need 3/5

[raven timber]

1/5 is possible

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

3/5 makes it smooth sailing

[spark pasture]

Are you even a kantrio fan if everyone is not 3/5 smh my head

[warped kettle]

how dare you accuse me of being a Kantrio fan!

🚶

[spark pasture]

checks thread title

[warped kettle]

[spark pasture]

I’m expecting you to show up all your shiny Eevee btw

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #1
Should Cynthia have been used on Uxie because of Vacuum Wave: Numbing Blows? Maybe. But screw it she's an iron wall against the hammer

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #2
Think Chezei would particularly like this one

Entei #2
Probably the end of my easy solo?

[raven timber]

Uxie #2
Infinite potion MPRs later

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

I've spent the past hour doing the Sycamore solo on Entei and I'm STILL not done

HOW is the potion MPR bruteforce simulator Leaf vs Uxie faster than this

Society if Sycamore had Team Sharp Entry 2 instead

[worn herald]

[shadow burrow]

you will beat it soon

i took 20+ attempts to get it done

[raven timber]

It's so straightforward

And yet it's so-

AHSJFJJAJD

I've done this solo before, I'm not backing out this time

[warped kettle]

you can do it!!!

[raven timber]

• Sycamore has to crit horn leech to heal back up before iron tail, so he can tank it
• Sycamore has to speedrun bar 3 lest Entei raises attack too much (mad strength 1, more like mad strength 10)
• Sycamore can eat a +1 attack iron tail from full HP. +2 if he's lucky. Anything higher and he dies

[devout lichen]

There’s no shame in bringing support geodude to help

Unless you were already planning on using it to make a different solo easier

[raven timber]

I've done this solo before and I'm doing it again

[shadow burrow]

somehow Sycamore ate the first Iron Tail at +3 atk just fine for me maybe it was only 1 sync buff

[raven timber]

Maybe low damage roll?

Or yeah, maybe only 1 sync buff

Bcs even at +2 attack, Sycamore struggles to tank it sometimes

[shadow burrow]

i rushed to kill Entei right after its second sync

i was this close to try rolling for skill gears

[raven timber]

How am i gonna rush to kill it when i'm at +1 crit and terrible luck

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

I'm ALREADY rolling for skill gears

But i managed to do it with 3* fairy gear last time, suuurely i can do it now too

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

I'll have to do it tonight tho, i'm busy the whole day

[raven timber]

I'm getting so close

SO CLOSE...

[raven timber]

Entei #3
YEAAAAAAAAH

[worn herald]

[shadow burrow]

[spark pasture]

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

contemplating...

on bulu btw

[raven timber]

ugh, i'm so close but i'll have to do it tomorrow

[spark pasture]

Not even forgoing sleep for more LG clears smh my head

[raven timber]

I had to wake up early on a weekend because I have a trip with friends

[spark pasture]

ok, you need a trip with friends everyday to have a win streak like mine

[raven timber]

...i just had my winning solar blade miss because of bulu's +1 evasion

+1 evasion

trembling rn

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

IT HAPPENED AGAIN

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

update: three times

dear God

what is happening

Tapu Bulu #3
I understand why this solo is a 🚫 now

Would I reattempt it in future gauntlets? Yes because I love to torture myself like that

[pure pollen]

~14% missing thrice is rough

[raven timber]

doing the NC Bede solo on Uxie now...

got killed by the shadow ball spams on bar 2

Uxie #3
Whoo, okay this wasn't so bad

[raven timber]

Entei #4
This was so easy oh my gosh, why have I never done this before?

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #4
Somehow Lana managed to sync and kill before the +6 ban hammer fell upon her

[raven timber]

Uxie #4
I still have 2 Uxie solos planned but I'd like to rolex them first

[shadow burrow]

oh right i forgot about Anni Lillie solo

[raven timber]

I candied Cerena to 3/5 finally. Took me a year

[shadow burrow]

tho sup Chansey is a bit wasteful there, i did non EXR Cerena with tech Rapidash

[raven timber]

I had absolute terrible luck, Cerena didn't dodge anything even with Uxie at -6 accuracy. So I needed the potions

[shadow burrow]

[spark pasture]

Rolex? We’ll watch them with great interest

[shadow burrow]

Cerena is my next EXR target but i want to wait for datamine first

or NC Rosa when i pull her

[raven timber]

I'm planning to rolex all 3 NC Kantrio together

just waiting for 2 more support cake coins

[shadow burrow]

strike NCBlue so based

[raven timber]

ugh, doing a SSR Cynthia clear on Uxie is the prime definition of suffering from success...

all my moves hit past half bars

[raven timber]

Instaqueueing a sync during bar transition sucks

Good night, i will continue this clear tomorrow

[raven timber]

Uxie #5
FINALLY

[warped kettle]

very nice

[raven timber]

wondering whether i should do the Melony solo on Bulu or not

Tai, are you doing it? do you want to suffer together?

[warped kettle]

Apparently it's easy but idk

[raven timber]

just spam sing and win, they say

[warped kettle]

My version of "easy" and the Top LG players version of "easy" might be. Different

I'm willing to give it a crack though

[raven timber]

that's the spirit!

i'm probably gonna solo bulu with clemont, lodge serena, and kali. blue and melony if i'm feeling adventurous

[warped kettle]

Oh yeah I forgot the Kali solo sounds good to me

[worn herald]

Nate solo on Bulu?

[raven timber]

sounds horrid

i'm bad at move timing, especially considering my phone can be laggy sometimes

[shadow burrow]

Spam Sing for 14 mins?

[raven timber]

well...

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #5
First try clear either I got insanely lucky or this solo was indeed very easy

TM Critical Eye on his powerboost is a godsend

[raven timber]

how the hell did i get to bar 3 with aaron vs entei solo once and now never again

[raven timber]

Entei #5
I EX'd Aaron for this clear, though if I hadn't, I could've claimed the min investment spot in Mael's doc
Note to self for future Aaron vs Entei solo: just reset for TM MPR early on, get to at least +2 crit to speedrun bar 1 to avoid too many fire spins. Don't get burned until bar 3, flinching heat wave is ideal

[shadow burrow]

[rain siren]

Me who’s not planning to EX Aaron

[spark pasture]

You never had EX Aaron before this

[worn herald]

EX Aaron is so good!

[rain siren]

But Shauna

[spark pasture]

I don’t have EX Shauna

[worn herald]

Why not both

[raven timber]

I dont have EX Shauna either

[spark pasture]

You should EX more units

[raven timber]

i have 102 EXs!

shauna and lyra will be EX'd sooner or later, trust

if not for this LG, then for Grass HS because God knows Lyra needs the bulk

[spark pasture]

EX’ing a unit for HS

[raven timber]

I 5*d all my water units for HS, good old days when i thought i had a shot at tryharding

[spark pasture]

you still have a shot at tryharding

[raven timber]

Not having adaman and ss acerola is a major setback

[spark pasture]

yeah, you basically need to be a whale more or less

that's why i'm 180k and out

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #6
11 sync buffs later
Note to self: farm sync buffs bar 1 and 2, only giga drain if necessary. Speedrun bar 3. Dawn can tank a +3 attack wood hammer, she needs to dodge the one with +6 atk

I also EX'd her, she's been on my EX waitlist for a while anyway

[worn herald]

Excellent choice

[raven timber]

how was i able to do may + hapu duo way back when

can entei please miss the fire spin

[worn herald]

I've learned that Entei will hit Fire Spin through -6 Acc about 95% of the time

[raven timber]

and when entei misses, may doesn't get TM MPR so i can't max crit

pain and suffering

+suffer

[fresh wharf]

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

[raven timber]

Entei #6
FINALLY

[pure pollen]

What an obscure-ing power combination 🏃‍♂️

[shadow burrow]

May Entei rest in peace

[raven timber]

Uxie #6
I realize Uxie not being able to get statused on bar 2 is kinda bad for N since he can't activate dirty sync, but welp

[raven timber]

Uxie #7
If you think about it, SSilver on Uxie is just like CCalem on Uxie, only faster and Silver actually has good damage
Note to self: on bar 1, sync with 0 speed twice, then with +3 speed once

note to self: switch back Silver's lucky skill to CS2 after this

[spark pasture]

switch it back now

[raven timber]

Entei #7
Oh this was QUICK, Kris you absolute goat
Note to self: switch back her lucky skill from flameproof

I could continue the Johto kid streak and solo Bulu with Ethan but it looks like a huge pain

[spark pasture]

do it

[raven timber]

I don't know if I want to suffer through that

oh jeez he needs STOIC for it?

also you need a shit ton of MPRs to max evasion

and the man only has MPR2

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

yeah.... nevermind

sorry ethan

he has flamethrower with HE2, he's going to Uxie

[raven timber]

Ugh who decided kali should only have stat leech 3

three

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #7
GGs

[warped kettle]

You have my attention

Review pls

[raven timber]

get evasion buffs early and it's easy

i didn't even get TM MPR

it's easy after that

getting evasion buffs can be hard though. thanks STAT LEECH THREE

oooo got to bar 3 on my first attempt of lodge serena solo but couldn't dodge the ban hammer

[warped kettle]

Evasion clears pain

[raven timber]

this one is bearable imo

her healing is decent after a while

Tapu Bulu #8
Pecking bulu to death

ok now time for the annoying "evasion" solo: ss blue needs to dodge a fire spin and land his hydro cannons

[raven timber]

Entei #8
Only took me less than an hour? That's generous

Blue died from the burn right after killing Entei

[raven timber]

Today and tomorrow I will be out the entire day, not sure if I can squeeze a few clears in

[spark pasture]

That’s a good thing nov, see your friends this weekend

[raven timber]

Uxie #8
How do people do Anni N + Flint duo like "yeah just dodge everything with this Agile Entry 2 while you suffer setting up N's nuke for at least 2 sync cycles bro, it's ez bro"

[shadow burrow]

skill issue || ||

[raven timber]

Uxie #9
Easy first try clear because I have a flight tomorrow

[raven timber]

Entei #9
Okay this didn't take as long as I expected

[warped kettle]

That doesn't look too bad, what's the strategy?

[raven timber]

Brainless

Spam mirror shot to lower accuracy and keep screeching. For my first sync, i did it without paralysis for damage control. Acerola doesn't have to click any moves after she's done with TMs

Second sync wipes the whole bar, just confuse ray early, but wait until uxie's status shield disappears before paralyzing and nuking

It won't gain resistance if you bar skip

Repeat bar 3

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

Colress LAcerola is like the easiest Uxie win I've done so far

Well i've only done 9

[warped kettle]

Does he need EX?

[raven timber]

I think you can try without

[warped kettle]

I might and see how I go

I do like the silly I disagree because I hate Ghetsis man

[worn herald]

He's kinda based for that take tbhtbh

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #9
My first Bulu duo. There's still the Blue solo I'm eyeing but I'll do it when I'm free

[spark pasture]

You have 42 battles to go

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #10
Staggering is a lie

[warped kettle]

what's Brawly doing there

[raven timber]

Tanking and chucking potions at himself

Defense debuffs also helps brendan's nuke

Entei #10
Lucian is a monster, I didn't expect a first try win

[warped kettle]

Ooh stealing that I think

[shadow burrow]

Smh should have used Lucian on Uxie because of confusion

[raven timber]

10%

[shadow burrow]

He has Aggr4

[raven timber]

oh well

Uxie #10
I have no idea how I did this

[shadow burrow]

How many tries it took

[raven timber]

idk, 5?

[shadow burrow]

Thats not too bad

My friend took 17 tries to get the duo done lel

[raven timber]

Entei #11
Grimsley nuked that final bar with 1 HP and a dream

[warped kettle]

Player didn't even bring a Pokemon smh

[raven timber]

that's right, I beat up Entei with my bare hands

scouting sync pairs? why don't you scout these fists

[warped kettle]

We have had ENOUGH of Entei's nonsense

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #11
WHOOOO LET'S GO KING

Who says this is hard? Just dodge everything bro

Took me 3 tries before I decided to cave in and use Fast Track, then I won on my 2nd try

[raven timber]

Uxie #11
The fancier Blue this was brainless, you just can't die

Uxie #12
Another first try clear! Leaf my queen

Sadly NC Red can't solo Uxie

But I'll be using him on Uxie anyway

[raven timber]

Entei #12
Apparently Cyrus + Brycen duo exists? And i don't know how people do it, so here's an overkill clear

[shadow burrow]

the Brycen duo is a bit rng with gauge management and freeze duration

[raven timber]

freeze duration
Haha yea nevermind

Tapu Bulu #12
I know Darach is good but i've been heavily sleeping on him. Piers's Obstruct MPR game went crazy

[shadow burrow]

bird

[raven timber]

I need piers powerboost

Obstruct-ing nearly every move was fun but man it gave me anxiety

36 wins, i'm over halfway my goal

And I have 9 days left

[drowsy viper]

Will be eagerly following to rip off

[raven timber]

Just be aware that I'm tryharding this thing

So my teams can be headache inducing lol

[drowsy viper]

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

I've done 9 clears today! If I keep this up I can reach my goal in time

[shadow burrow]

i need to rush to reach my goal too

[raven timber]

Aiming for the leaderboard?

[shadow burrow]

as always

i got kicked from the leaderboard last minutes 2 times in a row

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Entei #13
Using an eggmon felt very easy so I switched to one of my more annoying flinchers

[fleet elbow]

BP Zinnia mention

[raven timber]

Zinnia stan got summoned

[pure pollen]

[shadow burrow]

40% vs 60% flinch

[pure pollen]

No I got that, it's just funny Typical LG madlad

[shadow burrow]

||join us||

[pure pollen]

Stop this cult recruitment

[icy saffron]

75% Accuracy too

Unless y use 2 Tm

[shadow burrow]

oh hey you are here now

[icy saffron]

I'm always here, just dont type anything

[shadow burrow]

[warped kettle]

always watching...

[raven timber]

i tried with egg slowbro and won first try with both almost at full HP. That was waaaay too easy

[raven timber]

i had to use the TM, but i had to make sure my very first dragon rush flinches

so that took a lot of resets

[raven timber]

it's an honor

[raven timber]

Uxie #13
I believe this can go cheaper but I don't want to do the solo

[icy saffron]

It is alright, solo is very hard

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #13
Oh this is very overkill

[shadow burrow]

not even using Courtney with a flincher on Entei? smh

[raven timber]

i feel like i'm rushing things a bit

i need to do at least 30 clears left

i'm trying to do looker/kiawe and I'm giving up

they're both paper thin

Tapu Bulu #14
Win 40, give it up for win 40!

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

Uxie #14
Bruteforcing that half bar 3 like a champ

[raven timber]

Entei #14
Crying 30% freeze chance

seeing NC Nate oneshotting bars despite not being a tech is satisfying though

I've given up my mortal possessions to this unit, he BETTER hold up to my expectations at LEAST

[raven timber]

Uxie #15
Who decided Flabbergast 2 on Stun Spore was a good idea

[raven timber]

Entei #15
Crying May why are you so paper thin

[shadow burrow]

:MayShock:

[worn herald]

[warped kettle]

Hurghhhh she dies to a stiff breeze I'm dreading trying to duo

[raven timber]

flinchlock go brrr

and her gauge is shit too

and mine's had vigilance since the last time entei was in LG

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #15
Someday I'll do the solo but that day is not today

Hop refused to crit his sync 90% of the time

24 wins left before I reach my goal!

that means 8 more rounds of beating up Uxie!

crying

[shadow burrow]

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

and that's only my minimum goal, once I get past 69 I'll probably continue indefinitely

[spark pasture]

i thought you were gonna stop at 69 win streak

[warped kettle]

Hmm is the Hop duo hard?

[shadow burrow]

Not at all

Just need a lot of Potion MPR

[warped kettle]

That sounds workable, he does hit hard af for a Support

[raven timber]

that's my bare minimum!

i want to see how far I can go

with the time and sanity i have left

[raven timber]

I didn't even need that much, it was definitely bearable

behemoth bash and sync hits hard

[shadow burrow]

More Freevenge means less Potion, so i guess you were lucky with Freevenge?

[warped kettle]

Could I get the grid 👁️ was Magneton just there for Screech?

[raven timber]

definitely

[raven timber]

yes

[raven timber]

Just my standard healing grid. You can switch natural remedy to quick cure

Just make sure you potion to full HP before the wood hammer so hop tanks it better

I didn't get hit by the wood hammer on second half of bar 3, Hop just breezes through that

[warped kettle]

thank you!!

[shadow burrow]

Getting Quick Cure is better. Tapu Bulu cant status you

[raven timber]

Yeah i didn't even bother changing my grid from my usual healing grid lol

Luckily i didn't get flinched

[raven timber]

Uxie #16
Zerena sweep

[shadow burrow]

🧹

[warped kettle]

The CARRY

[raven timber]

My last 2 syncs didn't crit, I got burned by Heat Wave, and I still won first try. Rosa you're a beast

Can Rosa solo this? I'm pretty sure she can

[shadow burrow]

Yes she can, if you want to bank on 20% flinch

She is ontype so she clears quickly, so the solo is not too bad

[raven timber]

I'm worried about the gauge though

Unless it involves aqua jet spamming?

[warped kettle]

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/10100/50200 i'm guessing this was the grid?

o wait i still have 9 energy

I tried the BP Falkner solo but I gave up. Falkner can only debuff accuracy but has no heals or evasion buffs, so... Agile Entry 2 Flint finally has some use

[raven timber]

It's empty bestie

You have to share the grid layout

Not copypaste the URL up top

it's been a long day

[raven timber]

I haven't checked the grid in the solo doc, kinda worried about gauges if you don't take quick combo to refresh aqua jets

[raven timber]

Doing the Falkner/Roark duo on Entei... Ugh Roark why are you so fraaaaail

I want to get to at least 50 wins today

[buoyant pilot]

have you tried evading

[shadow burrow]

She has Aqua Jet + Quick Combo tho

[raven timber]

Falkner evades just fine

If roark gets hit by that sure crit eruption, it's (almost) over

Like, he'll live, but barely

[warped kettle]

that Hop duo slapped (Bulu), ty Nov

[raven timber]

[shadow burrow]

Just use Clay

Ha

Falkner's flinch game was strong in my winning run

[spark pasture]

Get to clear 69 before Christmas

[long salmon]

Who were you planning to pair NC Red with vs Uxie?

[raven timber]

I ended up using supp kanga

[raven timber]

[spark pasture]

You do want to be on the nice list right?

[frosty plinth]

What grid did you use for Mina?

[long salmon]

Oh what, how does that work

Only sync with Kanga bar 1, bar 2 sync with Red, bar 3 ???

You run out of ice rebuff

[shadow burrow]

He can run with any eggmon

I did my run with 1/5 non EXR Red

Basically farming sync buffs on first 2 bars, then use TM + Protect on bar 3 to rush

[long salmon]

I don’t get it, does NC Red have piercing blows on his sync too?

[shadow burrow]

oh wait, it was Uxie, not Entei

[icy saffron]

Reading issues

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

yes

bar 3 you hope to paralyze with kanga

uxie will heal by half bar 3 but at that point just bruteforce

i used supp kanga because potions, i need to keep it alive until bar 3

[raven timber]

CS2 lucky skill

Uxie #17
Win 50, give it up for win 50!

[worn herald]

[raven timber]

no way, right now i'm at top 1k

50 wins, 78 pairs used

[worn herald]

you can do top 100 ez

[raven timber]

it is not, in fact, ez

[worn herald]

[pure pollen]

Should've been 50:50 smh smh

[worn herald]

Or 50:150

[pure pollen]

that is the way

[raven timber]

i'm not that strong

[raven timber]

no

[worn herald]

[shadow burrow]

you have completed 50% progress

[raven timber]

i'm going to disappoint you

The Nate solo needs an insane level of move order precision that I am not willing to learn

[raven timber]

Entei #18
Why is it that my winning run is the one where Onix got burned by flamethrower and couldn't move the entire bar 2?

[shadow burrow]

a win is still a win

[raven timber]

ugh i'm trying the usual redlax + gladion on Uxie and it's just...

frustrating

it's so hard to do damage control to make sure Gladion can oneshot bar 2

[icy saffron]

What is your Redlax move level ?

I think 2/5 has HE1 right?

[raven timber]

5/5

[icy saffron]

[raven timber]

i'm just afraid if i paralyze too early, bar 1 finishes far too quickly and i will be helpless bar 2

but if i stall too much bar 1, red will eventually die from iron tail spam

which means i kinda need to rush second half of bar 1

[icy saffron]

Stall on half bar 1
