@raven timber relatively stupid question: special LS for VoloTogepi right?

[raven timber]

Yes

[raven timber]

Registeel #35
KGrimsley Hilbert wasn't working so 1/5 EX SC Selene

[raven timber]

Tornadus #35
I don't know how Bugsy BP Surge has enough damage before you eventually die so here's 1/5 Furbert for moral support

[warped kettle]

oh yeah i saw the Surge/Bugsy duo and was like. No,

[warm mango]

i figured it out when i was grid building

you don't build nuke bugsy you build dps bugsy

you run synchro surge

if you do that it's pretty chill

[shadow burrow]

i did that duo once, without EX Surge

it was not easy, but not hard either

Tighten Up really helped

[warm mango]

i didn't use tighten up but considered it

my surge is EX though so that probs helped

[shadow burrow]

now imagine with EX Surge

[warm mango]

came up with this when i saw that clear

[raven timber]

I thought you would get sync cure

You just pray paralysis procs on toxic?

Tapu Bulu #35 and Tapu Bulu #36, random bullshit go i don't care anymore

[warm mango]

yeah

[raven timber]

Dear God

[warm mango]

cure puts you at 61 energy if you want first aid or tighten up

and I have a HS for next month so like

actually i lie you can get tighten up

but not first aid

i just prefer first aid cause consistency

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Regirock #36
Selene's a leftover because I have no other good dark pairs to take advantage of the zone. Having the assurance that you can't get crit under dark zone is so nice, even if you fail to flinch the EQ it's relatively safe. Though Naomi gets down to 20% HP after 1 sync, so I kinda needed multiple sandstorms to heal her back up

Tornadus #36
Random bullshit go! Cyrus is the last legendary adventures pair I haven't used, and I always make it a goal to use every Legendary Adventures pair (and every Blue alt) in every LG

Tapu Bulu #37
Glacia barely dodged shit! I didn't get good fortuitous luck

I decided to stop at 111 so two more to go

Regirock #37
Aaron is such a good support for many game modes. He buffs offenses. He buffs defenses. He buffs crit. He heals. He flinches. I always don't know who to pair with him that doesn't constitute as overkill. Well......

[raven timber]

Tornadus #37
Ol' reliable (bar 3 was slow af)

And that's a wrap!

My ratio's better than expected

[shadow burrow]

that means nov is going to do 222 streaks next LG?

[raven timber]

Uhhh let's not go that far!

Given the ratio I'm at, I don't have enough pairs for that

I'll upload my sheet when I'm on pc tomorrow

So... Celebratory speech. Ahem!

This LG was quite fun even though Tornadus definitely makes me feel like I'm in an insane asylum. That Self Cleanse haunts me in my sleep. I also think the bakers in Pasio will need to be working overtime because of how many cookies I burn through to give everyone Vigilance. You get Vigi, you get Vigi, everyone gets Vigi!

It's not a beginner friendly LG but it's not the hardest one either. I had a 1-week long national holiday for Eid so I had more time to grind since I didn't have to work. Would I have gotten this far without that holiday? Honestly I'm not sure.

There are definitely many teams i'm not proud of because I was just tired and I'll definitely have to revise them in the future. But I'm satisfied with 111!

Toxic pings moment! Thank you for everyone here who sticks around watching me lose my shit. Big big thanks to @hard grotto and @shadow burrow first and foremost for the incredible Team Repository it's an immensely helpful system. What would I do without you facilitating my thievery?

Massive shoutouts to @warm mango and @icy saffron , absolute machines that they are. Their teams are so good and I steal a lot from them. You guys are so cool 😭

Thank you to @warped kettle for being my LG buddy! Seeing your stage clears thread light up was very motivating for me! Let's trauma bond together again in the next LG

Thank you for the haters, @worn herald, @spark pasture ,and @pure pollen ! I'm so honored to be impactful enough to have haters

And also thank you for the lurkers cheering me on! (Trout I know you lurk here lol ) I feel like Goku being lent power tbh. Haters, lurkers, and fellow LG fanatics alike, please stick around for when I'm back in my suffering era in two months! And good luck to the HSE grinders next month!

Bottom line, I feel like with my current irl responsibilities and the 3 weeks given to us, 100ish is my limit. Maybe someday I can do 150. But anything higher is very unlikely for me, physically and mentally. At least until we get more time for each LG or I have more units to do comfortable trios. Or if LG drops in the middle of my summer break and I'm a hermit at home

[pure pollen]

Proud to be of service

[warped kettle]

🤝

delighted to have bonded with you in shared LG trauma! i'm sure it'll be worse better next LG

[raven timber]

Ask the 8ball, will the next LG have Moltres?

[warped kettle]

[fresh wharf]

Will Moltres be in the next LG?
:8ball: Cannot predict now

[warped kettle]

chuckles we're in danger

[hard grotto]

the next LG will have Articuno with HE4

the gimmick is that you have to set sun to not get frozen

[warped kettle]

[raven timber]

Flame wheel and sacred fire meta

I think my awards night will have to wait until tomorrow when I complete my excel sheet lol

[shadow burrow]

I want to be an LG buddy too but i will have a very important exam in June

[raven timber]

Oof, that's when the next LG will probably be

June will be my last month of internships so I might also be quite busy

[raven timber]

You're an honorary LG buddy! I always know you've got my back

[shadow burrow]

I hope i can get back to LG suffering soon

[hard grotto]

can't wait to get pinged on other threads for the same reason

silly document man

[shadow burrow]

Toxic pings

[raven timber]

You deserve all the toxic pings thanking you man

[split lion]

Congrats again, Nov!! Streak numbers look so satisfying too 111:222.

Also, lurking is here a major reason I was able to get as many wins as I did.

[spark pasture]

Thanks for the LG hater shoutout nov!!!

[hard grotto]

[worn herald]

Happy to help! I will continue to hate as long as you continue to push

[frosty plinth]

Does Elio need to be higher than 1/5?

[raven timber]

Nah it's just 1/5

Gave him fast track from previous LG but it's not necessary, gauge was fine

[raven timber]

LG14 full teams! Can a mod please pin?

🎈 Awards Night 🎈
Most fun solo: SS Silver on Registeel. It was quick, it was easy, seeing Silver dodge moves was funny, seeing him debuff to oblivion was funny, seeing him nuke bars was funny
**Least fun solo: ** Riley on Registeel. I got a low damage roll on my winning Close Combat and Regi was left at 1% HP before he giga impacted me. And it was already hard enough to nail the queues for sync, max move, and CC too. Haunts my dreams.
Diamond in the rough unit: MC Mesprit! Now that I 2/5'd her, her survivability increased immensely.
Most disappointing unit: Nate 😭 man's SO bad...... i can't defend him anymore.... I used up all my flying units except Nate. i gave up on him
**Most fun duo:**Tech Gyara and Nessa on Regi! I tested it to get a sense of how hard it was. Ended up winning first try.
Least fun duo: Torchic + Marshal. I had to deal with so many 30%s. 30% for Torchic MPR. 30% for staggering proc. 30% for body slam paralysis. 30% for iron head flinch. 30% for mind games 2 that I gave to Torchic because I got so sick and tired of having to deny iron defense. I hate this clear with my entire being.
**Most overkill duo: **Surprisingly? it was NOT the double ho-oh this time. So it was probably Zerena + Calem on Torn.
This LG I (pleasantly) learned: My variety eevees are suddenly very useful on Regi this time around.
This LG I (not-so-pleasantly) learned: Tapu Bulu likes to suddenly wake up early to Wood Hammer me in the middle of a sleepchain (not the start of the bar, mind you!) idk what happened
Unit I EX'd this LG that I definitely regret: Phoebe. Bulk is still bad.
Unit I EX'd this LG that was 100% worth it: Classic Elesa. She's only 1/5 but the EX made the CElesa + Supp Dragonite run much much easier and less headache inducing

[shadow burrow]

As a MC fan, i can't defend Nate either

Man he was in same batch with Bianca and he was shit

[fluid wave]

Do you have healthy healing on Phoebe helps her bulk

[warped kettle]

Zerena + Calem on Torn is straight-up bullying

(deserved!)

[lapis orbit]

Deserved ×100 really

[hard grotto]

EXing Phoebe for the masked royal duo

[fluid wave]

I think I EXed my Phoebe in a uxie LG for sync emergency 5 funnies

[raven timber]

I EX'd her for it and still got skill issue'd

[raven timber]

From deluxe cookies? No, but I'll consider it next time

[shadow burrow]

Healthy Healing is needed on her

[alpine dome]

Stealing14 (Support Arbok, KGrimsley EX, 1/5 SCSelene on RSteel - easier clear, sanity clear)

[alpine dome]

[alpine dome]

Stealing14 (Acerola, Naomi, VSelene on RSteel - easier clear, sanity clear)

[raven timber]

Can I maintain top 500? The answer is no 💀

[worn herald]

😭 So close

[raven timber]

yeah, i probably could've reached it if I did 112 wins lmao

oh well

[hard grotto]

I didnt maintain top 1k lol

[spark pasture]

Can we however appreciate the clear number and sync pairs used number

111 and 222

Exactly 2 sync pairs used per clear

[raven timber]

It was not intentional but I'm glad the ratio turned out that way

[alpine dome]

7 wins away from not getting in

Ik, huge jump in rank

[raven timber]

Damn

[haughty pivot]

113 wins was top 500

[raven timber]

😭

[raven timber]

AHAHAHAHAHA

FUCK

[raven timber]

gosh i haven't fought regirock in so long, i've never really tried to minmax him

let alone terrakion lmao

back to the age old question of "do i use ssr cynthia for uxie or terrakion"

[fluid wave]

same

will help me getting used to him

to see what solos i can lower
then just need to get used to uxie, latias, coba

[raven timber]

i think i did ssa cynthia and ccalem solos on regirock last time

i wonder if those two should solo uxie instead

ugh decisions, decisions!

[raven timber]

Regirock #1
Alright here we go! This was much easier than the last time I did it thanks to EXR and skill gears. Just use Vigilance Calem so you don't have to deal with crit and getting your defense debuffed. Calem's defense buffing is unreliable enough as it is. Cycle Brutal Swing and Water Shuriken well, don't panic if you run out of gauge as Regi is pretty slow

[raven timber]

Uxie #1
I got bad freeze and confusion luck and still won 2nd try

Looks like the LG leaderboard is bugged again... My game keeps crashing if I try to open it. Oh well, Terrakion #1 is SS Lyra and I forgot to screenshot Probably the only braindead Terrakion solo i will get

[icy saffron]

Not only you, LG Leaderboard just sucks

[raven timber]

Regirock #2
This was a bit too easy ngl

Uxie #2
I was trying his solo vs Terrakion but the dodge game was too insane and I don't want to torture myself. So Uxie it is.
Note: Sync twice bar 1, then DPS the rest, enter bar 2 with sync

Currently doing SST Red vs Terrakion and I almost got it... I just need to flinch every move in bar 3!

[raven timber]

Terrakion #2
AAAAAAAAAAH
This was so cringe (I will do it again)

[raven timber]

ooooh this clemont solo is so annoying

everything is going so well and then drain punch doesn't miss and kills me from full HP

Uxie #3
Anyway, I did this

9 wins today, I'll stop i guess. I need to wake up early tomorrow

[raven timber]

I was out the entire day so today I just did 3 very easy, 1st try win solos!
Regirock #4
I got terrible flinch luck and still won first try. Potions ran out by bar 3 but Hop bashed through it!

Terrakion #4
I got amazing flinch luck here. Terrakion could hardly move in bar 3

Uxie #4
Using Chase to solo Uxie seems to be the right decision because this was so brainless

[spark pasture]

What’s the plan nov

What win streak are you planning for?

is it annoying as everything says

[raven timber]

100 wins just to see how far I can go with Regirock and Terrakion in the rotation

After that it's random bullshit go

It's a hard LG, and I know with my current patience, skill level, and allotted time, 100ish is my limit anyway

[raven timber]

https://youtu.be/-WGGy-RzEX8?t=9224 ss korrina with a def debuffer on Uxie

[devout lichen]

is that particularly difficult

[raven timber]

i wouldn't say so

just don't sync until bar 3

poison will be doing all the damage because leaf got no crit

(actually critless frenzy plant is fine ig)

[raven timber]

Regirock #5
I had been trying the solo since last night but eventually I give up because this is too much bs I need to cut myself some slack

Uxie #5
Not doing the solo no thank you

This SSR Cynthia flincher duo on Terrakion is kicking my ass rn

SSR Cynthia is at +6 energy. Don't let terrakion sync at all. Get at least 1 Ghost Wish MPR

[raven timber]

Terrakion #6
Easy first try win

Regirock #6
YEEEEEEEES
Used a slightly different grid from skippingmud's video. Didn't flinch Regirock bar 2, flinched the opening rock slide on bar 3 instead. Don't worry if Regi sets up crit shield bar 2, it should still be fine

[raven timber]

Uxie #6
The SS Korrina duo is NOT going well! So I just did this and I'm calling it a day

[raven timber]

i hate terrakion so much

that is all

[raven timber]

Uxie #7
Zerena + Weedle did NOT go well haha, there was no gauge

Regirock #7
Got tired of the Pal Victor solo

Terrakion #7
Terrakion is so hard to duo man, I might break and start trioing way sooner than expected, which is NOT good for my overall streak plan

[raven timber]

Terrakion #8
I keep saying I've gotten down the pattern for sleepchain, but little things still like to mess my run, for example gradual healing disappearing will usually mess with your chain for some odd reason

Regirock #8
Molayne nuke is good, actually

Uxie #8
Gauge was iffy at first but after a while it was fine (fleet feet on gyro ball is needed for jasmine). Sync with jasmine repeatedly

[warped kettle]

Keep going I support you!

[gloomy fern]

[raven timber]

i've been doing the ss korrina tech raticate duo on and off

she just.... needs to dodge.........

Uxie #9
I finally got this after trying on and off for 2 days

Uxie #10
Ol' reliable

[raven timber]

Terrakion #10
My past 3 Terrakion clears have been sleepchains, this is worrying
Also, I SWEAR I didn't fuck up my pattern, nor did I have gradual healing going off, but Terrakion keeps waking up at the wrong times

Regirock #10
I'm so bad at using KGrimsley. Man is so slow

[raven timber]

Terrakion #11
The gauge sucks so bad man. Elio is practically glued to Troublemaker but all my variety eevees have fast track, Selene didn't proc hers until the final two hits

[fluid wave]

could you afford team fast track 4?

[raven timber]

oooh I didn't go that route, i went for team critical nightmare

today i learned team fast track exists behind TM MPR 1

elio and selene with their MPR 1s why are you like this

anyway i'm really going through all my sleepers, I need units that can tank Terrakion properly

[raven timber]

Uxie #11
This duo isn't the most optimal but it's so fun

Regirock #11
This was deceptively difficult. With 3 sync buffs Silver couldn't quite oneshot bar 2, so you have to DPS the remaining health before Regirock uses Drain Punch (you can use up your final flinch or freeze here and kill before Regi gains immunity). Silver can survive a Hammer Arm (mine's 150 EX)

[raven timber]

Regirock #12
Oh hey, I still got another solo in me

Terrakion #12
Nevermind.
(I didn't even want to attempt the solo, Terrakion debuffs speed way too much for my sanity)

[raven timber]

#1012311116778586182 message I'm scrambling together terrakion teams

Uxie #12
Maybe it's time to EX Surge

Terrakion #13
I hate Terrakion part 13

Uxie #13
Hoooo boy give Helena the focus band title becaus she survived the sure hit dazzling gleam with 1 HP and a dream, then nuked the whole bar 3! She has Vigilance here, but I swear I did this clear with CS2 last time. Without Vigi I think it's mandatory to dodge all the dazzling gleams bar 1

Regirock #13
I went through 2 supports before settling on MC Regi (BP Olivia was too easy, Lodge Raihan was too bad). Use 1 Regi TM on himself and 1 on Riley. It doesn't matter if Regi dies bar 2, Riley can take quite a lot of moves bar 3. I used max move bar 3 here, immediately followed with a sync, then quadqueued iron tail

[raven timber]

Uxie #14
Forgot to post, here's a sanity clear

[raven timber]

Terrakion #14
This was overkill but I hate Terrakion so much so he deserves it. The Sharpened Body/Sharpened Mind is so unnecessary wth

Also congrats to Lucas for finally getting the 3/5 treatment! He's been waiting since his debut

[raven timber]

Regirock #14
1/5 Argenta, tanked with Steven for recuperation

We used to have old strikers who could tank and now we have new supports who can deal good damage we have truly come full circle, it's beautiful

[warped kettle]

saw the registeel and had a visceral reaction

the LG trauma does not leave you

[raven timber]

This one's the good Registeel dw!

Tame and smol

[raven timber]

Terrakion #15
This was very overkill but Terrakion is an ass. Didn't sync with Volo until the killing blow

[raven timber]

Regirock #15
Gauge was tough at the beginning but after a while it was fine. Better if you get early Look Alive procs so Misty can dodge Rock Tomb. Kill half bar 1 before EQ, so I synced with Valerie. Otherwise sync with Misty. In this run I got insane potion MPRs

[raven timber]

Uxie #15
This took an embarrassingly long time because I had to figure out the damage control

[raven timber]

Terrakion #16
Idk if it's my skill issue or is Terrakion being inconsistent, but it loves to wake up in the middle of a sleepchain even though I didn't do anything unusual. I think if my units can't tank many moves to compensate for my skill issue, I might have to bring a third unit just to tank

Uxie #16
Didn't want to do the solo. Basically I wanted the potions, but a burn unit instead of paralysis would've been cheaper

Regirock #16
Candied her to 2/5 for an easier time but I'm planning to make her 3/5 anyway

Uxie #17
Poison stall bar 2. So many potions needed. I got flinched back to back from zen headbutt, yeesh

#1012311116778586182 message putting this here

i haven't had much luck with flinch clears though

the ss erika tech sprigatito duo is still kicking my ass

Terrakion #17
No fucking way

Save SEUP for first sync (set terrain beforehand to oneshot bar 1), though it's still okay if you don't crit and fail to oneshot. You can eat a Swift, but get past half bar 2 immediately so you don't get hit by Earth Power. Set terrain before entering bar 3 because Espeon will most likely die after that. Bar 3 sync should oneshot, but if not, quadqueue prismatic laser immediately.
I had Vigilance on both, idk how Nao did it with speedy entry

Oh lussa lived on 1 HP and a dream so this was tight

And with that I've reached 50 wins feels good

[raven timber]

Regirock #17
This is probably the first time I use Cheren in LG
Uhhh flinch bar 1 as much as possible, preferably you nuke past half bar 2 but it's fine if Regi raises crit shield. Just don't let Regi sync bar 2 so Kris' attack doesn't get debuffed. Cheren died in bar 2, Kris handled bar 3 herself. First Aid 4 and endurance are fair and balanced

Terrakion #18
I stopped counting how many potions I needed. But Ghetsis needs 3 syncs to clear bar 3. Congrats to Skyla for finally getting EX'd 😭

[raven timber]

Uxie #18
Fantina I love you so much

Terrakion #19
I think after this I might start trioing Terrakion... I've been trying some flinchlock clears but with the RNG I need to flinch, get weather MPR, and kill quickly, it's too stressful. Getting speed debuffs is NOT helping. At some point I wondered how I did so many flinch and sleep duos vs Azelf but then I remembered Azelf only hits hard on bar 1 and after you get past that it's pretty tame even if you mess up once or twice. Terrakion is a fucking menace from beginning to end, I hate this so much

[raven timber]

Uxie #19
Use max move to rush through second half of bar 1 so you don't have to eat Iron Tail. Otherwise this was easy but I'm too fucking tired to care

Regirock #19
Can you tell I've never used Wikstrom before

I got tired of doing 2v1 sleepchain on Terrakion ffs, it's not even me messing up my chain, it's Terrakion waking up randomly and OHKOing me

For the record i've completely forgotten how to do 3v1 sleepchain, so Arcanine was just a sitting duck

[raven timber]

Regirock #20
Wow Lodge Raihan is bad!
Carefully farm sync buffs on bar 1 with Synchro Healing and space out the gradual healing you get. If sync is ready but crit shield is still up, just keep syncing wjth Raihan. Many potion MPRs

[raven timber]

Uxie #20
N is disappointing, unfortunately

Uxie #21
Fast Track on Allister solves (most) of my problems with him. Need a few MPR procs on Misty, dodge the iron tail. The more dodges she gets, the easier

Farm sync buffs on bar 1 with Morty. In this run I got lucky and Blaine buffed sp def with his TM

Regirock #22
I don't want to roll for sharp entry and pray for TM MPRs for the solo so here's a cat helping Jasmine get crit instead

Terrakion #23
Terrakion is harmless once you debuff offenses and flinch the hell out of him, actually!

Uxie #23
Roxie my beloved

[shadow burrow]

nov stop being insane

[warm mango]

you need to use a passive that always procs

[shadow burrow]

[warm mango]

i'm so behind on LG

[raven timber]

I do!

[warm mango]

then is it the half bars?

[raven timber]

Serena and VLucas is pretty comfortable usually

But sometimes Terrakion would wake up early

[warm mango]

for the half bars they'll wake up immediately after the sleep

so you need to do sleep move into sleep move

and then regular queue

[raven timber]

It usually happens in the middle of a chain. Like, not bar entry or half bar transition

I know about the different chain pattern on bar entry and I find that Terrakion doesn't cure status in half bar actually, and my chain would still go normally

But sometimes Terrakion would just decide to jumpscare me and break the chain

Happens often too, even naomi complains about it

Like i'm not the best at sleepchaining myself, but with other LAs, even when the chain breaks, I still have enough room for error and I can tank a few moves. But not with Terrakion and all his buffs

[raven timber]

Too late bestie I'm already insane thanks to Terrakion

[worn herald]

You're already crazy thanks to LG in general

[shadow burrow]

it's not for my standard

[shadow burrow]

valid

[worn herald]

Regirock #23
SS Blue just lives forever. This was a first try clear but I don't care anymore I hate Regirock I'm running out of Regirock teams

Obligatory nice checkpoint

Surely I have enough units and sanity to fight Regirock and Terrakion 10 more times!

[warm mango]

what's the unit count at?

[raven timber]

128

my ratio is gonna be worse than usual, I can already tell

[warm mango]

nah you're fine

[raven timber]

since i started trioing terrakion early

@warm mango terrakion would wake up early like this

My HP was low because it also happened in bar 1 but I lived

[warm mango]

No that’s what i was talking about

It’s a queueing issue

Ideally you want the non sleeper to have the passive that always procs

So what you do is queue hypnosis then queue a move with the passive proc

[raven timber]

Yeah, lodge sycamore has acumen 9

[warm mango]

And then you do a big delay

And then immediately queue hypnosis when sycamore’s move hits

One sec

@raven timber something like this

And you repeat this while keeping the half bar rule

[raven timber]

i'll give that a try

normally i see 2v1 sleepchain being hypnosis -> sleeper move -> non sleeper move -> wait for dmg number to appear -> hypnosis

so there's one extra move being sneaked in

[warm mango]

I just do the less one cause it’s safer

[raven timber]

[warm mango]

At least in my experience

This is all anecdotal and there’s multiple approaches

[raven timber]

mm

sometimes it works, but other times terrakion is still asleep by the time i use hypnosis again

thankfully agatha has MGR9 so i can instaqueue another one before terrakion gets to move

but i know this won't easily work with other sleepers

[warm mango]

Yeah that’s why it’s safer

Cause agatha is more like cyrus than the other sleepers

[raven timber]

aaand i failed it

[warm mango]

How far in?

[raven timber]

bar 2 sure crit earth power is what always gets me

[warm mango]

Ah

If it helps don’t clear bar 1 with a sync

Depending on who’s syncing

If it’s syca syncing nvm

[raven timber]

syca always syncs

[warm mango]

Nvm then

[raven timber]

yeah my problem with this is that, if my finger isn't fast enough, i still fail to instaqueue a hypnosis anyway

i've done a few terrakion sleepchains so far and none of them succeeds with me taking zero damage

[warm mango]

I see

Sleep is all about practice but with practice you eventually get the hang of it

[raven timber]

terrakion always wakes up at some point

[warm mango]

Either way gl

[raven timber]

i thought i had the pattern down but God damn terrakion please don't wake up randomly outside of my chain, that's the whole point

i've been learning sleep chain for 2 LGs now I think and I've never gotten this frustrated before lmao

with other LAs you can take a few hits

with terrakion one wrong move and it's over

give me azelf back

please

[warm mango]

I’m wondering if that’s the play myself

I’m locked out of so many solos cause i go “yeah i can do that” and then i go “wait no WTZ for tera” 😭

I need to find more no wtz clears

[raven timber]

oho i reached a new personal best of reaching bar 3 before terrakion wakes up and kills me with earth power

amazing! not good enough tho! ❤️

[raven timber]

terra can be flinchlocked and sleeplocked so that's your best bet

but you know

haha

like if you somehow get lucky enough with terrakion's sleep duration, ofc you can do as many sleepchains as you want

but i've been lurking in the LG chat enough to know that people are also getting heavily frustrated over sleepchaining terrakion

[warm mango]

I’ll try my hand at it, i had a few 0 damage cyrus runs during the 0 but it’s cyrus

[raven timber]

my most recent attempt led me to dying from earth power on bar 2 again! bestie why have we regressed!

ig this is another thing i hate about chaining terrakion. sleepchain is already super precise and sometimes inconsistent enough as it is, but as you farm enough sync buffs, it gets easier and easier to kill a bar

but with terrakion it simply gets more and more difficult the further you get

wdym i have to maintain this perfect chain through clear advantage 8?

[raven timber]

Terrakion #24
I know Lodge Lillie and Kali duo is a thing but holy shit gauges were suffering. Even this was tight on gauge. Haste on lillie, fast track on Pidgeot (i chose it for crit, some speed, and potential flinches though it barely procced), Vigilance on Kali (but now that I think about it, maybe Haste would be better in this case). Kali didn't stat leech any speed buffs, go girl give us nothing

[raven timber]

Uxie #24
This was pretty tight. Reset for 1 Marley TM MPR

[shadow burrow]

Should have used Brawly instead

[raven timber]

yeah i think i saw that team

i'm considering brawly for a regirock nuke

[split lion]

You can get to a 100, Nov. I believe!

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Regirock #24
Aaaand I give up duoing Regi. Don't let Regi sync on bar 2 at all so you don't get attack debuffs. Enter bar 2 with a sync.

[raven timber]

Regirock #25
Reset for X Attack MPR. Reset if potion runs out before bar 3. Grid for critical charge. When crit shield is up, don't bother clicking meteor assault because you will have no gauge

[raven timber]

Terrakion #25
collapses on the floor
Never, never again. No I did NOT take zero damage. Yes Terrakion still randomly woke up in the middle of a chain. The only reason I lived was Eve clutching many, many dodges. It took her 4 syncs I think to clear bar 3 but that's okay!! Dodging moves actually helped my gauges! But man was it a heart exercise

If my units can't handle my fumbling, I won't do a 2v1 sleepchain against this ass

I feel like my sleepchain skill is just regressing

[raven timber]

Uxie #25
This was much easier after EX Lodge Acerola damn. Whitney nuke!

So I've EX'd 3 units for this LG so far. Skyla, Gordie, LAcerola

Very tempted to EX Lodge Calem to give him more bulk and speed but he's so bad he doesn't deserve that

So... 75 wins. Just a fourth left!

[shadow burrow]

100 wins soon???

[raven timber]

Hopefully!

[warped kettle]

You can do it!!

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Terrakion #26, Uxie #26, Regirock #26
I was busy today so all I had time to do was slap an eggmon like flextape. I tried the Uxie team as a duo for so long... But the potion check was bullshit... And confusion is a terrible status change. And Cyrus is bad offtype

[raven timber]

Terrakion #27, Uxie #27, Regirock #27
Adding thirds because I got tired of lacking gauge!

Terrakion #28
I assume the duo needs good skill gears. Plus, gauges were pretty bad as a duo. Fast track can only do so much when Terrakion spams bulldoze

[raven timber]

Uxie #28
Can you tell I'm scrambling together Uxie teams

[raven timber]

Regirock #28
Idk how nao did the anni steven lisia duo. Flinch wasn't flinching and I would just die

Terrakion #29
I thought I had to be careful with spacing out Bede's TWO field effects but apparently even his Psybeam DPS was pretty good (just flinch as much as possible and get attack debuffs early), and he nuked the entire bar 2 (of course he did). Next time try to sleepchain this ig? If terrakion ever wants to cooperate

This is the worst ratio I've had in a while

[shadow burrow]

i think sleep chaining with Bede is even easier

just give him gauge

[raven timber]

It really should be easy with him

But it doesn't help when terrakion randomly wakes up!

He can tank a few hits ig... Just land attack debuffs early

I'm so salty about terrakion waking up randomly, it's giving me a traumatic reaction

On one hand i'm cringing at my overkill teams

On the other hand I just want to reach 100 but also I need to be conservative considering I'm getting low on Regirock tanks, I need to move some from other LAs

[raven timber]

Uxie #29
I was planning to wait for SS Ethan's field EXR but I decided that's too long of a wait, I just want to get this over with asap

Regirock #29
Can and should work as a duo

[raven timber]

Regirock #30
Spam Fly on Nita to save gauge. Don't let Regi sync bar 2 if possible so you don't get attack debuffed, but if you do, use Nita's TM here

Uxie #30
Again, I wanted to wait for Morty's expansion but I just want this to be over this weekend

Terrakion #30
The hardest part here is just to make Nidoqueen live for as long as possible. Vigi on Nidoqueen (ground guard is prob better?), use Reflect on the first bulldoze and, if you can't skip it, the EQ on half bar 1

Terrakion #31
Got tired of doing the duo so here I am

Regirock #31
Got tired of doing the solo so here I am! Holy shit even this was tight.

Uxie #31
Lol lmao

[icy saffron]

Fun fact for Regirock 31: ……. ||Both can solo regirock||

[raven timber]

I'm aware lol

Eva solos are bs this time around

I just need to do 7 more

This LG is draining

[icy saffron]

No Clowntios, no hammer

[raven timber]

My issue is that

There is a lot of overlap in planning

Flinchers and sleepers mostly

Also Terrakion's so annoying. Either you have dmg reduction due to no WTZ or you have increased offenses and hit like a truck, please don't combine both

[icy saffron]

All of them are BS, i have never thought i’d say this but Uxie is the least bs one

[shadow burrow]

yeah when Uxie is the easiest you know the rotation sucks

hot take i prefer Latias/Moltres/Uxie over this one

[raven timber]

it really is!

[raven timber]

same

at least with that you don't have too much overlap

moltres allows less variety with your teams but terrakion is driving me insane

[raven timber]

Uxie #32, Terrakion #32, Regirock #32
The Regi team was a bit too easy but I'm just throwing all my supports rn

Uxie #33, Terrakion #33
I've been trying the May/Crasher Wake duo on and off but it's just like the SS Erika flincher duo. Either you don't land your flinches or you don't get enough weather MPRs

2 clears left, I've been waiting for this

(this next one might take a while)

[raven timber]

Regirock #33
Nvm this took me one try. It was slow, but much easier with skill gears

[raven timber]

Terrakion #34
The ol' reliable! I like to end my streaks with this duo. Vigilance Silver is the answer

this was a workout

My position as of right now, I wonder how far I'll fall

[fluid wave]

Congrats!!

[raven timber]

[gloomy fern]

[raven timber]

A halfhearted celebratory speech is in order! This LG SUCKS ASS BRO, there was so much overlap in planning, and when Uxie is the least annoying of the three, you know this rotation is bad

This is Terrakion's first time in LG and Regirock hadn't been in LG in a while, so you could say this is my first time heavily optimizing for them both. I knew Terrakion would be a huge bottleneck (I can understand Clear Advantage, but Sharpened Body/Sharpened Mind is NOT necessary hello?? Also please stay asleep when I'm sleepchaining you, PLEASE!), but I didn't expect Regirock to be a wall for me either. Haha get it, because-

I have a lot of spare units that I can use to break my personal best, but this LG is just too draining and I want to do some other hobbies instead of pouring hours into pokemas. I'll also be pretty busy next week I've pretty much come to accept that, with my current units, skill level, patience, and time, 100ish wins is all I can manage without going too crazy.

Tbh I'm not too proud of the way many of my teams turned out, they're too overkill for my taste, but eh I reached 100 wins so that's still a win

Thank you as always to @shadow burrow , @warm mango , @icy saffron , and @fluid wave for all the teams I've stolen from them and of course all the amazing people in LG chat. Thanks also to all the lurkers here for watching my descent into madness! Good luck to the HSE grinders next month, and here's hoping LG16 will be more forgiving

[warm mango]

i've only done like 30 something clears wdym stolen 😭

grats on 100 though

[raven timber]

not exactly "stolen" when we basically do the popular duos but I did ask a lot of tips from you

[raven timber]

oh dark while you're here can you pin my LG14 teams, for easier navigation to my older messages lol

[warm mango]

you should be able to pin in your own thread no?

[hard grotto]

No

[warm mango]

odd

[raven timber]

i wish that was a thing 💔

[hard grotto]

meanwhile me still at 10, 4 on my Normal streak i don't think i'm finishing it ngl

no motivation

[raven timber]

LG15 teams!

alright dark please pin this one as well

[raven timber]

Awards Night
Most fun solo: Sycamore on Regirock this deer never dies
Least fun solo: SST Red on Terrakion It was a heart exercise. NC Silver on Regirock is a close second
Diamond in the rough unit: Molayne has a good nuke!
Most disappointing unit: Raihan I struggle finding a support to carry his ass at 1/5
Most fun duo: Lodge Acerola and Whitney! Whitney has a damn good nuke
Least fun duo: Uhhh a LOT. I would say all the sleepchain duos I did weren't fun because Terrakion always, ALWAYS wakes up randomly and oneshots me. Other than that, SS Lusamine + Tech Espeon was also pretty stressful, but the serotonin you get after completing it makes it slightly better
Most overkill duo: I paired Lodge Blue with Volo on Terrakion LMAO shit was funny
This LG I (pleasantly) learned: There's nothing pleasant about this LG imma be real
This LG I (not-so-pleasantly) learned: Terrakion loves to wake up randomly in the middle of a sleepchain. Which... defeats the point... of a sleepchain... It's the only LG that can be sleeplocked this time around and you can barely abuse it because one mistake and it WILL oneshot most mons. I harbor deep resentment towards Terrakion now
Unit I EX'd this LG that I definitely regret: Uhhh... Skyla, actually. I just never use her outside of LG anymore. Also for all we know, dena could rerun Skyla's EX next month.
Unit I EX'd this LG that was 100% worth it: Gordie! Really nice nuke

[shadow burrow]

glad i could help

congrats bestie

[warped kettle]

Nothing pleasant about this LG LMAO 😭 I feel that

[hard grotto]

You pleasantly learned that dropping this LG might be a good idea

[raven timber]

[worn herald]

congrats Nov!!

[warped kettle]

because one mistake and it WILL oneshot most mons. me looking away for one second on Bar 3 and my full health Geeta is just freaking gone?

idk how you did this Nov fr

[raven timber]

with terrakion, i learned that it has two main gimmicks

clear advantage to take less damage, and sharpened body/sharpened mind to deal more damage

just shut off one of these gimmicks and you should be fine

(for the most part)

if you don't debuff its attack/special attack at all, your strikers will probably need vigilance because the sure crit EQ on bar 3 will most likely kill

i gave out SO many vigilance this LG. not as many as last time, but still SO many

[split lion]

Congrats Nov!

I've seen you do this multiple times but it never fails to impress. Well done and wow!!!

[raven timber]

Thank you!! It's because I know I've done it before that I keep pushing myself lmao

[raven timber]

Oh, NOW i got top 300?

When i wasn't even trying?

[hard grotto]

I mean if you got 100 you definitely were trying

I did like 25

[raven timber]

Compared to last LG when titles were first introduced

Tbf this was a hard rotation

[raven timber]

I definitely could've gotten better lol, I had maybe 5 days to spare

But terrakion burned me out

[hard grotto]

didn't even get 25 lol, got 20

rank 4188

[raven timber]

you reckon people doing 11 wins get ranked this time?

[hard grotto]

11 i dont think so

seeing how many people are tied at 20

i scrolled up to see how many ranks i would've gained if i did 1 more but it was all 20

[raven timber]

Damn

[hard grotto]

lol ok i have a friend that did 12 and got the 10k title

[raven timber]

DANG

[raven timber]

dusts this off

no image

but apparently it's moltres/latias/bulu

weather be looking sunny and our crops are thriving

[raven timber]

oh wait this is exactly like LG8 yay i can cheat

[worn herald]

Omg helper caught cheating what has the world come to

[raven timber]

ehhh i only did 41 wins that LG

stealing from LG channel we go

[worn herald]

I can't believe Nov is also a thief crying

[raven timber]

here's a secret: every LG streaker is a thief

[worn herald]

No wonder I'm not an LG streaker!

[warped kettle]

Y'all think we made up our clears? Smh

(Other than the RANDOM BULLSHIT GO! on the last few clears )

[worn herald]

Nah I know you all crib from each other. It tends to be a measure of how much bs you're willing to withstand over the time period while the likes of Naomi, Mael, and Dark are paving the paths

I try to pave the paths and fail miserably!

[raven timber]

Mael facilitates our thievery very well

Love you mael

[hard grotto]

[warm mango]

i am not paving any paths this is a lie

[worn herald]

I see you trying to often!

[raven timber]

The only path he paved was using all his sync pairs on One (1) Latios battle

Well, ig he found some solos

[raven timber]

https://vxtwitter.com/t3yd3f/status/1751928818942828599 keeping this here. they made it look so easy

[raven timber]

https://youtu.be/6ztH1Hg9e74?si=GE9Y99-3MwN-wAsu keeping this here... not killing sides so Leaf can still have rebuff by bar 2 is smart

[worn herald]

Most accurate LG solo advice

[shadow burrow]

💤

[fluid wave]

i remember this one

[raven timber]

i raise you

[fluid wave]

10% b move freeze in bar 3 iirc

[worn herald]

😭

[raven timber]

Moltres #1
Here we go!

I think I'm only gonna do 2 Moltres solos

[hard grotto]

There's an anni Raihan one with 2 ❗ or smth

[raven timber]

Latias #1 and Tapu Bulu #1
Easy ones overall

Latias #2
First try win!

[warped kettle]

What kind of Screenshot Of Despair

[hard grotto]

Anni Raihan Terrakion kek

[raven timber]

Moltres #2
That's it, that's all the Moltres solos I got in me

Forgot to screenshot but Tapu Bulu #2 was Dawn solo Here's Tapu Bulu #3

[raven timber]

Latias #3
wipes tear Finally I have one of the LG gods

[hard grotto]

Smh not doing a Moltres duo /j

[raven timber]

Nah i'm happy with the solo here lol

I'll be glad to break 100 this time around

75 is my "realistic" goal

[hard grotto]

10 is my realistic goal

[raven timber]

Moltres #3
God bless Weather Wipe
Fire Guard on Farfetch'd, don't get hit by strong moves. Mine's 5* max affinity though

Tapu Bulu #4
Did this after failing the Caitlin solo way too many times i'm gonna come back to it tomorrow

[raven timber]

Moltres #4
I lied, I got another Moltres solo in me after all. Thanks for the luck Gakon

I couldn't find a window to use max move bar 3 but red's sync oneshot

My hands are trembling

[warped kettle]

How bad is it

Surely if anyone can make it easy he can

Surely

[raven timber]

slightly better than terrakion solo

[warped kettle]

Oh no

[raven timber]

the terrakion solo had me screaming

[worn herald]

He can't change the weather

[warped kettle]

OH NO

[warped kettle]

Garbage unit!

[raven timber]

he flinches!

[worn herald]

True!

Flinch sminch!

[raven timber]

and you don't have to worry about getting burned under e terrain

imo bar 2 is the hardest part. you can't oneshot it with sync, but if you get past half bar, you get -2 sp def

so you have to find a window to slot in 2 bmoves before you bar skip

unbending LS is necessary, I also gave red extra energy to grab headstrong (on bar 3 Moltres debuffs your attack if you get hit), so my haymaker nuke isn't impacted

[worn herald]

Ew

<- just spent 100k orbs on a pair to fail at a new clear

[raven timber]

so now I have unbending, vigilance, and fucking ground guard as the 3 LS slots on my sstr lmao. rip critical strike 2

[raven timber]

Latias #4
This could've been a first try win but Latias keeps flinching or freezing me, or my sync doesn't crit

Caitlin solo has NOT been going well! how did I do it so easily last time idfk

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #5
Okay. So. Seed Bomb bar 3 will kill Sidney if it's under GTerrain. So either confusion procs, or you somehow eat the Seed Bomb when terrain runs out. I somehow ate the terrainless seed bomb in my winning run, Sidney went from full to 11% HP. This is with DC2 lucky skill, I imagine you wouldn't have to worry as much if you had Stoic

[shadow burrow]

how awful is the solo on the other bars? did confusion run out too soon for you?

[shadow burrow]

oh btw you can try to fit a couple of B move between TS when the bird flinches so the sync can oneshot

for me the sync nearly one shot the bar thanks to my excellent gears

[raven timber]

uhhh if you can get confusion proc on the sure crit seed bomb on bar 2, that'd be great. the confusion didn't run out too quickly, on my winning run i was at lessen confusion 3 by bar 3

don't get random crits bar 1

[raven timber]

yeah, this is what i did bar 2. had to slow down the game to 2x speed so i can click bmove in time

[raven timber]

your endurance will break by wood hammer, potion immediately. facade will take out a good chunk of HP, potion immediately. preferably you sync before seed bomb, though idk if that's possible, i'm usually 1 move away

[raven timber]

Latias #5
CERENA MY QUEEN!
Damage control bar 1, don't get telekinesis (or flinch it). Dodging a few moves can help.

DPS down bar 2, make sure outrage doesn't come out. Nuke bar 3. My Cerena ate the bar 3 EQ and lived with 1 HP and a sync nuke ready 😭 this didn't take as long as I had expected

Moltres #5
This was overkill tbh, but any Moltres clear that doesn't change the weather is a win. Sync with Leaf repeatedly, bar 3 you nuke with Blue. Flameproof LS on both so I didn't have to pick Friend Mend

I have a feeling Flameproof will be the LS I keep rolling for

[raven timber]

Next rotation!
Tapu Bulu #6
Continuing with the Serena solos, here's the smol birb pecking Bulu to death. Very tempted to use her on Latias in a duo but eh it's fine.

Latias #6
Keep syncing with Sawyer for Synchro Healing (or whatever the new name is). After the sides are gone, it's simple

Moltres #6
Don't get hit by Brave Bird. Preferably skip half bar 2. Stalwart Olivia, Flameproof Acerola (she doesn't need it though)

[warm mango]

You’re already at 6 rotation

I should probably start

[worn herald]

Take your time, Dark! You have plenty of time

[raven timber]

you know how I do this, i always speedrun during the first few days while i still have the energy, then i get more and more tilted and tired each day

my LG plans might be ruined and idk if I can reach 100 now because today i got word that i gotta submit a research proposal for my undergrad thesis in 2 weeks

[raven timber]

Latias #7
A bit overkill but fuck Latias

Moltres #7
Trios so soon?! The May Hapu duo took way too much time and it was such an RNG bullshit

#1012311116778586182 message hmmmm

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #7
I give up on the solo. Past Nov was way too lucky with the catalytic cure procs

[hard grotto]

More like present nov is too unlucky

[shadow burrow]

present gakon also suffers from the same issue

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #8

[raven timber]

Moltres #8
So yeah, this can definitely work as a duo (just don't get crit) but... I lost my perseverance (wow so early!)

Latias #8
This was a bit too overkill ngl

[spark pasture]

Good good, overkill

https://tenor.com/view/good-evil-star-wars-emporer-palpatine-darkside-gif-4624104

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Moltres #9
The solo was bullshit, the duo made me want to cry, so screw it

Latias #9
This can definitely go cheaper but it was hard enough to make Marlon take the energy balls

Tapu Bulu #9
Lol, lmao

I'm starting to doubt 100 is possible for me

[warped kettle]

You're still going for 100??

Goddamn that's a new level of Powerful

[worn herald]

That's a funny way of spelling Insane

[raven timber]

i've been consistenly hitting 100+ for a few LG seasons, it feels weird not to do it!

but it's Moltres, so 100 feels idealistic...

75 is a realistic goal

[shadow burrow]

[raven timber]

Moltres #10
In theory I understand how the duo works. In practice I just don't want to bother Moltres killed all my motivation

[hard grotto]

Based

[raven timber]

Latias #10
After testing with some other supports, this is the cheapest non-egg (that can also debuff) that I could get, I think. Couldn't make it work with LCynthia or LElesa, skill issue

Tapu Bulu #10
This was probably my 4th try, but the attempts took a total of 30 mins bar 1 is slooow

[raven timber]

Moltres #11
Fire Guard Lapras, Mind Games Glaceon (it didn't even proc). My game was running at 6 fps, thanks hail!

Latias #11
Ah dang it, the duo was STILL a potion MPR simulator. I hate how SS Leaf doesn't have main character theme skill so I couldn't abuse my good MC skill gears

[gloomy fern]

we all hate that for SS Leaf lets be honest

no reason for it

[raven timber]

pain and suffering

yet ss red has it

dammit

didn't dena update some galar character's theme skill

[shadow burrow]

They gave them Galar Adventurer iirc

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #11
One day I'll do the solo, if I'm not lazy

Moltres #12
This is probably my most overkill Moltres team yet. Full HP win. Should've done Dawn + flincher or something

Latias #12
Bar 3 scared me a bit but overall easy

Tapu Bulu #12
The usual

Getting 75 wins is my realistic goal, though i really don't think I can hit 100 this time around. My teams will be half assed and overkill because I need to deal with ✨ professional life shit ✨

[heavy nymph]

I need help game master ex

[raven timber]

hi, you can ask around in #poma-questions for general help visit one of the threads in #1009553004350931054 for more specific game modes

[hard grotto]

bro asked for help in 3 different channels, got redirected there twice, and that's it 💀 no more message

[raven timber]

Latias #13
Easy first try!

I am having absolute shit luck with the bp barry solo

Idk what duo I can add to make bar 1 go faster (even then there's no guarantee I can survive bar 3)

[shadow burrow]

do you reset for 2 TM MPR?

[icy saffron]

You need Tm mpr ?

[shadow burrow]

for BP Barry solo, he needs it

at least for me, with 2 TM MPR he didn't have to use Synthesis on bar 1

[raven timber]

yes

saved one for the seed bomb

i still had to use synthesis, depends on whether i get flinched or not though

[shadow burrow]

i would reset immediately if i got flinched

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #13
I give up Blue was there to debuff Tapu Bulu's attack a bit (and he didn't have much chance to do it when he died in 2 syncs and Overwhelm has 30% chance to proc!) but on my winning run I got Bulu down to -4 attack so the wood hammer was comfortable to take. Still needed quite a bit of Synthesis MPRs though

[shadow burrow]

Have you ever heard of Jasmine solo

[icy saffron]

That very easy ||with my EX 70/70 Jasmine||

[raven timber]

screaming crying throwing up

[raven timber]

Using up (almost) all my Blues!

Moltres #13
Got tired of dealing with 40% flinch with just the duo

Latias #14
Spam Discharge and win

Moltres #14
Brendan's staggering almost never procs, just spam Leaf Storm 😭

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #14
Wow this was easy

[hard grotto]

imagine not doing the latias solo

[raven timber]

no thank you

i'm only aiming for 75

too stressed by irl matters to hit 100

[worn herald]

You've hit 100 while being stressed by irl stuff before!

[shadow burrow]

Chezei you are supposed to be an LG hater not an LG cheerleader

[worn herald]

Nov is too far gone for me to try to convince her to stop, the best I can do is encourage her

[shadow burrow]

[warped kettle]

Nov is somewhere around 45 clears, I am at 1

We are not the same

(I am a coward)

[worn herald]

I'm at one because I can't be asked to stop my dumb solos

[gloomy fern]

im at 10 im winning omg

[raven timber]

you're right! but that's a non-Moltres LG

the thing is i have an important deadline before the end of LG

once i pass that deadline i have like 3 days left of LG, idk how much i can do

[worn herald]

I believe in you!

[raven timber]

i don't!

[spark pasture]

Bold that chez and tai are at one clear, I’m not even there yet

[warped kettle]

It was on Bulu

(HELP)

[worn herald]

Mine too!

I have tried three separate solos on Latias and all of them are going miserably!

[warped kettle]

I haven't even tried!

[worn herald]

I'm jealous!

[shadow burrow]

hi jealous

[worn herald]

[raven timber]

well i did say you should try clemont solo on latias

back me up here Gakon

[worn herald]

I've been trying

It is not fun, but you might have better luck with an EXed Clem

There's definitely a cheaper Kahili option but I really like tank BP Zinnia. And her TM MPR goes crazy!

Latias #16
I couldn't make Kali/Katherine work skill issue on my part

Who thought stat leech 3 on Kali was a good idea

Kahili is such an underrated unit. Love her grid. EX when

[raven timber]

Was busy and demotivated yesterday so here we go again

Moltres #16
Should have just tried the duo, this was too easy

Tapu Bulu #16
This was much easier with Acerola EX

Moltres #17
Didn't take as long as I had feared. Just don't get hit bro lmao

Latias #17
Couldn't quite make the duo work because of severe gauge issues

Tapu Bulu #17
Last time I tried with a flincher eggmon and just couldn't quite get it

Moltres #18
Should have just tried the duo, this was too easy (2). Idk what I was so afraid of. The fear of The Bird is making me go too overkill!

Oop we're back to being lazy. Here's Latias #18 and Latias #19

[raven timber]

Moltres #19
I couldn't really make the duo work

Tapu Bulu #19
Ss Ethan + flincher is def the cheapest you can get with him. Used tate here because some of my eggmon flinchers still have gradual healing and defensive buffs lol

Tapu Bulu #20
The ol' reliable. Janine solo, what janine solo?

[raven timber]

Latias #20
I struggled finding a good partner for Elio that doesn't struggle with gauge early so I picked Alder for Rejuvenate

Moltres #20
Sync with Hilbert bar 1 to farm sync buffs. You can afford a second 40% flincher

15 wins left to reach my realistic goal i'm sick of moltres

[icy saffron]

No 100 streaks ?

[spark pasture]

No 100 streaks

[raven timber]

not this time, i don't think it's very realistic

this month's been stressful for me too

[spark pasture]

August and stressful times

[raven timber]

my summer break has not been peaceful!

July was nice, but july wasn't LG season

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #21
Only did 1 win yesterday

[raven timber]

Latias #21
Screaming crying rolling on the floor Latias has started to break me too

[raven timber]

I'm so burnt out these teams are embarrassing

Moltres #21
Kukui is still disappointing!

Latias #22
Got tired of trying the duo

Moltres #22
What is this?? Nov what the fuck is this??

Tapu Bulu #22
Get enough potions or dodge more moves

[spark pasture]

Tbh if you’re burnt out maybe you just need a break from LG

Unless this was a fire chicken pun, then I’ll say well played

[warped kettle]

WIKSTROM

[raven timber]

dw he's not contributing much outside of flinches once selene runs out of zone

[raven timber]

it's both

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

it's natural for me to get tired midway through, but this LG overall just gives me more burn out from usual

not to mention august has been stressful for me academically

[spark pasture]

just have fun, mate. it's only a game

[raven timber]

LG is fun! normally!

this one's not

[spark pasture]

going to refuse to eat chicken for a while, eh

[raven timber]

On the contrary, i'm feel like eating more spicy chicken to vent my anger

[raven timber]

Moltres #23
Farm sync buffs bar 1, flinch as much as possible. Silver has to oneshot bar 2 (make sure confusion lands beforehand for interference sync)

Latias #23
I was trying so hard to duo with ssrc + pikachu. I got so close, but then I remembered fuck it, why am I trying so hard? 😭

[spark pasture]

when are you gonna stop the streak nov

[raven timber]

75 is my minimum goal

[spark pasture]

69 win streak in shambles

And ending with moltres

[raven timber]

yeah it's fine, i still have a few weather setters left

[raven timber]

Tapu Bulu #23
My 69th win haha

Moltres #24
Was a bit messy but overall easy

Latias #24
Possibly the most overkill team I've had

Tapu Bulu #24
Gauge? What gauge?

[raven timber]

Latias #25, Tapu Bulu #25, and Moltres #25. Ending my LG streaks with my favorite rivals (and Morty)

Don't expect more from me hopefully next LG I can break 100 again

[restive forum]

You fought well

o7

(75 is a great streak for a hideous combo like this, I applaud your effort!!)

[raven timber]

LG16 full teams! can a mod please pin?

my ratio is 75 to 151... ack....

so close...

[split lion]

You did great!!!

75 wins on a Moltres LG?!

Congrats!

[warped kettle]

Holy shit Nov 😭 amazing

[raven timber]

And this is still with some weather setters and many, many flinchers remaining lol

Maybe someday I'll reach 100 for a Moltres LG

[split lion]

You definitely will!

[raven timber]

This LG is shit but it still deserves my usual 🎈 Awards Night🎈
Most fun solo: Clemont on Latias! First try win, I keep telling Tai it's easy but he won't believe me
Least fun solo: SST Red on Moltres gave me heart palpitations
Diamond in the rough unit: Once again, Lodge Rosa! I need to EX her soon.
Most disappointing unit: Kali. Who thought Stat Leech 3 was a good idea?
Most fun duo: Anni Steven and Tech Farfetch'd on Moltres! It was so fun and pretty easy too
Least fun duo: I turned a lot of duos into trios for Moltres, so my answer would have to be a proper duo: BP Barry and Event Blue on Bulu. I threw in Blue to get through bar 1 quicker and potentially land a few attack debuffs, and it's still annoying
Most overkill duo: 4/5 Akari and Tech Umbreon on Tapu Bulu lmfao
This LG I (pleasantly) learned: Moltres is not too scary if you slap Flameproof/Fire Guard on everyone! Just kill the bars fast enough and have a defense buffer and an Unbending tank
This LG I (not-so-pleasantly) learned: During bar transition, Moltres unflinches and uses its move immediately. I call bullshit!
Unit I EX'd this LG that I definitely regret: Lodge Raihan is still bad
Unit I EX'd this LG that was 100% worth it: SS Acerola! It greatly helps her tank special moves. I really should candy her soon, but Alt Elio demands all the sugar rush I can give him...

[shadow burrow]

Congrats nov and allow me to steal this award format

[warped kettle]

And I will continue not to believe you bestie!

[worn herald]

Good! It's not an easy solo!

[raven timber]

[raven timber]

Wow

[raven timber]

Gonna try breaking my PB this time

..am i gonna do the ssa cynthia and ccalem solos on azelf again

[split lion]

Rooting for you, Nov!!

[warped kettle]

Search your feelings you know it to be true

[raven timber]

My feelings say yes because if I've done it once then I can do it again

No matter how shit the solos were

[warped kettle]

i have 3/5 Lenora now so Registeel better WATCH TF OUT

[fleet elbow]

Registeel and Coba gauntlet
noping out of this one

[warped kettle]

ironically it's Azelf that puts me off stupid little thing hits like a TRUCK and bug weakness is annoying for me

Regi was in my 100-streak clear so I can handle that one, and Coba isn't too bad (iirc you can flinchlock tf out of him)

but Azelf,,,,,,

[raven timber]

Azelf seems the most straightforward, and it's definitely easy to clear with proper teams

Once you try to streak it though

I remember doing a LOT of duo flinch locks

It wasn't pretty

Azelf is where i learned proper sleepchaining too

[warped kettle]

i knew you'd bring up sleepchaining

but i don't WANT to learn, Nov

[gloomy fern]

It comes in useful for like two whole modes though!

[split lion]

Any tips on how to get better? Any clears I should watch/practice?

[raven timber]

Success requires suffering (or a huge roster)

[raven timber]

#1022413718199476255 message idk if there's a proper sleepchain video guide, i think the gauntlet intro video guide pinned in #1012311116778586182 introduced it a bit. But this video helped me so fucking much with sleepchaining

[spark pasture]

but you love suffering for LG

[raven timber]

Exactly!

[spark pasture]

but you have hw to do!!

[raven timber]

I'm doing an internship, no homework for me, just usual corporate work

[warped kettle]

but my SKILL ISSUES

[worn herald]

[raven timber]

dw i have skill issues as well, i just get less and less issues the more i practice

[spark pasture]

Need the holy trinity of fire chicken. Rock un un un, and moon swan

[gloomy fern]

Or how about we dont suffer that badly

[raven timber]

even dena is afraid of moon duck

[azure moon]

Honestly it's not that bad.
You just gonna learn the rhythm
Like Parappa

[raven timber]

It has come to my attention that this LG only lasts 2 weeks instead of the usual 20 days

So if I want to beat my PB I have to do an average of 8 clears per day

Yeeaahhhhh things are not looking good!

[spark pasture]

8 clears a day. FFS dena lol. I hope you’re getting paid to do these clears

[raven timber]

8 clears a day shouldn't be hard if I do easy trios but

Ughhhh

[spark pasture]

We all know trios aren’t in the cards here

[gloomy fern]

clearly you havent heard my plans for if the Rei Registeel solo gets too hard

[raven timber]

Pain and suffering

I've done the Rei Registeel solo and it wasn't too bad with a different grid

The Riley solo on the other hand

It drove everyone who did it crazy

Let it be known that i failed that solo with only 1% health left on Regi, it was stupid

[gloomy fern]

sounds like pain

[spark pasture]

fits the theme of halloween month

[warped kettle]

Oh I remember that

[raven timber]

the whole LG channel united over the hate of Riley solo

[warped kettle]

I can't remember if I did it or if I just duo'd

Oh nope I duo'd with egg Kanga LMAO

Y'all were scaring me too much!

[hard grotto]

I checked, I did the solo

I don't remember it being that bad but it probably was

[raven timber]

It was quick, but you had to instaqueue a lot of things

My phone is NOT built for this

[raven timber]

#1012311116778586182 message stealing this maybe

[raven timber]

Registeel #1
I think you want at least 1 flinch on bar 1 so you can sync before Regi. Flinch the opening EQ bar 2, take the Flash Canon, finish the bar. On bar 3 Rei can take probably 2 moves. Flinch at least once to sync in time

Azelf #1

Cobalion #1

Nothing to say here

I was trying to do the CCalem solo on Azelf for a few minutes. Got to 3rd bar on my best attempt but I genuinely think it's not worth trying to do it again, with just 2 weeks of LG I'll move him to Regi

[warped kettle]

It begins.....

[icy saffron]

Cant wait to steal team

[warped kettle]

nov how far are you planning to go

[raven timber]

the lineup is easy but it's only 2 weeks, i don't think I can break my PB considering i have internships and a side gig i want to pursue

i hope to hit 100 still though

[raven timber]

trust me they'll be very scuffed!

[raven timber]

Cobalion #2
This should have taken much less time but Leaf kept getting poisoned or not critting her syncs. Sync twice bar 1 and use bmove to finish the rest (should take about 3 moves). Sync under sun bar 2, spam Leer for another sync. Bar 3 also takes 2 syncs. Potion MPR simulator once you get past bar 1, really.

Azelf #2
Dodge dodge dodge dodge but unlike CCalem, SSilver actually has damage

Registeel #2
Past Nov is stronger than me for doing the CCalem solo on Azelf (she was so tilted and even EXR'd Calem) but present Nov has NO TIME! this took 1 try and very comfortable, it's just slow

Azelf #3
Took a few tries to understand the Dark Void timing. No I'm not a pro at sleep locking with Cyrus just yet.

Cobalion #3
Pay attention to when confusion runs out, don't get poisoned, that's it

Registeel #3
Mind games LS, grab staggering and MGR9 for easier time

time to sleep, i need to go to work tomorrow

[azure moon]

.... do you need to have EXR for the CCalem solo

asking for a friend

[raven timber]

nope

it's very safe and comfy

just switch to dark form before triggering half bars so you don't get debuffed

[raven timber]

#1012311116778586182 message stealing question mark

[raven timber]

Just some easy solos today
Registeel #4
I got this first try, but it's because I got a shit ton of TM MPRs that allowed me to keep gradual healing until the end. Also Victor is EXR for that sweet sweet TECH NUKE

Azelf #4
Braindead!

Cobalion #4
Also braindead!

Registeel #5
This was not, in fact, braindead. Had to do damage control, just use your first few moves critless. Skip bar 1 with your sync if possible to avoid all those hard hitting moves and def debuffs.

The Riley solo isn't going my way. The damage control is actually pretty hard with EXR. Doesn't help when the EXR video on the solo doc shows a failed sync crit

[warm mango]

Don’t use close combat bar 1

That’s how i did it

[raven timber]

I don't, yeah

Iron tail still did a lot of damage and killed bar 1 before i could get a sync

[warm mango]

Interesting

I never really ran into that issue

[raven timber]

I did it pre EXR before and the damage control was much more comfortable

I haven't even reached the part where I have to instaqueue CC on bars 2 and 3

That's where I usually fail because my phone ain't built for that

[warm mango]

Oh what LS are you running

[raven timber]

DC2

[warm mango]

Ok good

Ig just keep at it

[raven timber]

The riley solo had me SO tilted last time, i don't think i want to seriously attempt it anymore ngl ig i'll try to figure out the damage control a bit more

But nothing can cure my instaqueue skill issue

With only 2 weeks of LG I can't waste time on too many solos even though there are lots i wanna try

[raven timber]

Azelf #5
This didn't take too long, thankfully. Just like most Azelf runs, get past bar 1 and you're mostly fine

Cobalion #5
This also didn't take too long, bless

Registeel #6
A very easy one, though I did invest in extra energy

Azelf #6
Nov: "I hate eva solos"
Also Nov:

Cobalion #6
No more Cobalion solos the Lodge Serena solo scares me, i probably won't do it...

[hard grotto]

look, lodge serena solo isn't that bad

https://tenor.com/view/copium-cat-gif-27161395

[raven timber]

Registeel #7
This was SO comfortable oh my gosh, Arven has all the tools to tank Regi. Unflappable? Lithe?

Azelf #7
EXR'd Korrina for an easier time. This didn't take too long thankfully. As always once you get past bar 1 with a relatively good amount of HP, you're fine

[raven timber]

[warped kettle]

Go Nov go!

I am living vicariously through you because I have not started LMAO

[gloomy fern]

I have made attempts at 1 (one) solo. They have not been successful

So go Nov!

[split lion]

[spark pasture]

I haven’t even tapped on the LG icon yet , much less have done a clear

[raven timber]

Thank you for the high hopes

I still don't know where to use SSA Cynthia

The most plausible solo would be the Azelf one

But it got me so tilted last time

And i did give it a few runs yesterday, which kept failing because i got burned

[warped kettle]

I just got war flashbacks to her Uxie solo

Why do we do this to ourselves

[raven timber]

Because it's satisfying once you do succeed

Cobalion #7
Even this was very easy, but I'm too scared to do the solo

Azelf #8
Spent 9 sync buffs on bar 1 but after that it's very safe

Registeel #8
Another Cynthia solo! Scripted run, follow everything and you'll be fine

Cobalion #8
This was tight. At least 1 TM MPR on Erika. Stall bar 1 just to be safe, rush bars 2 and 3

[split lion]

Does Erika need EX?

[raven timber]

Nope

I did it pre-EX last time

It's so tight though. Erika dies to sacred sword on second half of bar 2. Lyra needs to nuke the last half bar otherwise she can't tank shit

But Lyra has a good nuke for a support

[split lion]

Oh so Lyra is nuking

will try to find the vid for this clear

[raven timber]

Lyra syncs all the time

the idea is to keep sun up

because these two have healing sun

one of the harder LAs for the flower duo to clear for sure, but it's not too bad

[split lion]

Will give it a try

Tysm!

[raven timber]

i love preaching the wonders of the flower duo

it may not always be the most optimal to pair them together, depending on the LG

but man they're so fun

[worn herald]

We love Lyra nuking

[split lion]

Nov how about Lyra? She need EX?

I can EX her, but I wanna know if I can get by without

[split lion]

@raven timber sorry for pinging but how about this?

[raven timber]

mmm it surely helps for sync buffs

but that's about it

she doesn't need it for bulk or anything

[split lion]

Alright gonna try without then

[raven timber]

just stall bar 1 without status longer

it's very safe

vigilance on both

in my winning run i waited until 4 sync buffs before paralyzing, though you can definitely get by with less

[split lion]

I'm on Regi rn but this'll be my next Coba clear

[raven timber]

Just doing old clears
Registeel #9
The more flinches you get, the better. Use circle on bar 1 when you're getting low on HP to reduce damage taken. The other circle can go to bar 3

Azelf #9
Fish for a freeze and pray it lasts as long as possible so Roxanne can survive as long as possible. You've basically won if Roxanne can survive to bar 2

Cobalion #9
The usual. Nuke bar 1, DPS bar 2, nuke bar 3. Be careful with close combat

I hate how if LG lasted 3 weeks, i would be way ahead of schedule

But now I'm just behind schedule ugh

[spark pasture]

Don’t ever think that way

You’re on schedule

Remember, everything else has the same amount of time as you too

[opaque plover]

Is your Korrina caked?
Move level?

[gloomy fern]

looks like caked, yeah

[opaque plover]

Yeah, I figured caked, Sometimes reading certain letters leaves my brain

[gloomy fern]

i get that

i often end up typing something completely different from what i mean by complete accident

[raven timber]

I tried without EXR but the cake makes it much more comfortable

[raven timber]

But i just want to break my PB (which i don't think is possible with only 14 days, that means 8 clears per day and I'm tireddd)

I know everyone else will probably get lower streaks bcs of the time constraints but I don't care about leaderboard

#1191734893886066908 message mmm not sure if i want to do this

[spark pasture]

think of it as clears per day instead of the overall number, if you can beat that it's fine

6 clears a day or something

[raven timber]

8 clears per day is a lot

Azelf #10
Get 1 flinch so you can kill Azelf before he syncs bar 1 and you're fine

Cobalion #10
Flint is so bad crying

I'm doing Nessa Gyarados on Regi and idk how I did it first try last time

I really hate how the gauge can either be really good or really bad with this team

[split lion]

Can I replace Erika with Ramos in the duo v Coba with Lyra?

[raven timber]

Mm i don't think so

Bcs the point of the duo is a sun stall

Which sure, he has healing sun, but

If cobalion stays asleep you don't need all that healing, no?

And cobalion will wake up faster and faster every time he heals. Lyra can't clear bars fast enough with her nuke and Coba will gain wide awake

[split lion]

I used erika already :((

who tanks in that duo btw? cause i cant seem to keep Lyra alive for too long with Ramos. Idk if im using the wrong grid

[split lion]

found Mael's vid, maybe I can replicate something similar with Ramos and make it a trio

[raven timber]

Erika tanks

she's the one with the def buffs

and the better healing sun passive

[raven timber]

Registeel #10
FINALLY
Ideally you flinch the bar 2 iron defense so Regi never buffs sp def and you nuke half bar to skip hyper beam. If you can't do that, just flinch more lmao

Azelf #11
Stolen from Mael the more flinches you get, the better. Stalwart Gio, Unbending Alder

[hard grotto]

[raven timber]

Registeel #11
The Azelf solo was hell. This was also annoying but much more bearable. You want to skip half bars (on bar 1, don't max out cakewalk for your first 2 syncs). Dodge the focus blast.

Cobalion #11
This was a bit too easy but I'll keep it. I should try with an eggmon next time

Registeel #12
I tried with Supp Kabutops but it was too iffy :/ I also had to give def crush to slowpoke because i'm sick and tired of not dealing the most damage

[spark pasture]

[raven timber]

Azelf #12
This is such an annoying clear. Basically flinchlock bar 1, don't let Azelf sync (you clear bar 1 in 2 syncs). Very very tight

Cobalion #12
Skip half bar 1, preferably as many bar 2 moves as possible so you can tank the sacred sword.

Cobalion #13
Dodge game. Unbending Colress. Easy enough

I could only do 3 clears today... kinda disappointed honestly. There's another Azelf clear i'm trying to do but the flinch game is also heavy and RNG isn't siding with me

I'm really not sure if I can hit 100 at this rate. I've been pretty busy too

[raven timber]

Azelf #13
I have had my revenge

Registeel #13
Potion check. The more flinches you get, the better. Manage gauge carefully

Registeel #14
Now THIS flinchlock run didn't take too long. Are you kidding me

Azelf #14
This run would've been way easier if only Azelf didn't burn me at every possible Flamethrower?

Cobalion #14
I! Hate! Using! Poison units! On Coba! after supp EX, Hilda should be able to nuke the rest of bar 1 (damage control very carefully). On bar 2 don't poison too early to cut down on animation time. Use no-effect TMs like Hilda's TM and Haze to reduce sync countdown with the least amount of time possible (damage challenge taught me something after all!) If all goes well, you can use 3 moves before Coba starts bar 2 with Swift

[raven timber]

Ugh my progress has been so baaaad

Registeel #15
Pretty easy and comfortable. Nuke past the bar 2 iron defense, then immediately meteor assult to skip hyper beam

Azelf #15
This was a first try win LMAO it's overkill

Cobalion #15
Whitney has an incredible nuke!

Registeel #16
I don't remember the duo taking me over an hour when I did it the first time, but now i just couldn't get it. Fantina is allergic to critting her syncs and I've never been this disappointed in her. Anyway, added an eggmon and won in one try

Azelf #16
Fortunately this didn't take long at all

We have 6 days left and i'm not even halfway to 100

And I'll be busy the next 2 days so i don't think i can get a lot of clears in wooooo

[hard grotto]

I tried to duo with just Snorlax but then I thought hey, why do I even bother? I'm close to calling it quits anyway

Cobalion #21
One day I will succeed in the solo, that day is not today

Azelf #21
I still can't make the mesprit gio duo work

Registeel #21
Yay Unova!

Registeel #22
Jasmine was so frail hot damn. She needs better defensive buffs

Azelf #22
An old duo that can def be improved

Cobalion #22
Preferably skip half bar 2 to avoid +3 attack. Get lucky with healing because Petey is frail.

Azelf #23
I wanted to do the Mix Red solo but I procrastinated for too long so here's an overkill duo

Registeel #23
Usually I do this duo with CGio, this is too easy

Aaaand Cobalion #23, whenever I do this duo, that marks the end of my streaks

Haha nice

So overall this was a pretty fun rotation, and I was optimistic I could break my PB with this lineup. But unfortunately LG only being two weeks hindered my plans greatly. Not to mention I have an internship and a side gig that I want to pursue, so I have less time to play the game. Not too proud of my runs this time around, because there are still a LOT of solos and duos I want to do and haven't done. (I ended up not using Riley at all, dammit!) But oh well, it is what it is.

Thanks to everyone who rooted for me and whose teams I've stolen, you're all the goat I flopped this LG season ngl, but I hope I can get back up again in the next one! Good luck to everyone doing HSE next month!

No fucking way

Welcome back, hell!

I remember jack shit about Raikou's gimmick. Rain and something

If the duration is another 10 days I'm probably just gonna do 69 runs and call it quits

I have an on-going internship, a side gig, and working on my final uni paper
