[worthy geyser]

i 'm about to poison stall it

[olive granite]

No you don’t need to

Like I did it on type

[worthy geyser]

what

with who

[olive granite]

Use Eggmon aerodactyl

[worthy geyser]

oh i forgot eggmons were a thing

[worthy geyser]

wait that's cheating

[olive granite]

Tf how

[worthy geyser]

i thought he could raise crit

i was planning monotype that's why

[olive granite]

Oh

Yea no that’s impossible

[worthy geyser]

not even a ts1 they litteraly can't buff crit

rock is garbage

here's mine

[olive granite]

Wtf self promo

[worthy geyser]

ex that bugsy

[olive granite]

Cami ban him

[worthy geyser]

he's too rare

[orchid spire]

til you can ex bugscy

[worthy geyser]

ye

[olive granite]

I will say tho

Using aerodactyl costed me 5* tickets

So that hurt a bit

But I got the satisfaction of kicking alders ass so it’s worth it

[worthy geyser]

btw nice SS Mina

good taste

[olive granite]

I got all 4 of them

[little badger]

they gave him is ex last year but still no rerun

[orchid spire]

the audacity of rerunning every other free unit multiple times but not him

[worthy geyser]

yeah it's odd

[stark tiger]

what do they even have against bugsy

[normal ermine]

The same thing they have against James and Jessie apparently

[orchid spire]

that’s almost certainly a licensing issue tho

bugscy is baffling

[normal ermine]

Maybe they know how good he is and are saving him for a super special "Bugsy returns!!1!!1" event? Idk

[fallen lagoon]

They seem to be gatekeeping the event pair reruns to annis now, so maybe it’s a hype thing? They are in the pre anni trailers after all

Hearing that you can get Bugsy for free may not be as impactful as Gio, Blue, Misty, or Spectrier

[olive granite]

im ngl i didnt even notice he had the option to be ex until yall started talking about it

[normal ermine]

I only did it to flex honestly

If you haven’t already, you should solo any of these for one of ur LG runs

Very free

[worthy geyser]

nice i'll try ty

[olive granite]

I love using these two together

[olive granite]

Alright I can’t do LG anymore without genuinely dozing off

[normal ermine]

Just like me fr

[olive granite]

I can easily go very high but I just don’t have the patience

CS and EBE’s are more my style

And HS (with certain types of course)

[normal ermine]

That's why I don't push tbh

It just gets very boring to me in a way that CS and HS don't yet

[olive granite]

Support gaming

[olive granite]

I’m itching to use 3/5 Roxannigus (are we rocking with that nickname or is there another one?)

I’m so close to getting a candy

[normal ermine]

This is the first time I've heard that nickname, but I haven't heard of any other one either tbh

[lone stump]

that's a horrendous nickname tbh lol

doesn't really roll off the tongue well

[olive granite]

Yea ik lol

The two names do not have good compatibility

It kinda fits tho?

[lone stump]

its really wordy with 4 syllables lol. nicknames need to be easy to say

[fallen lagoon]

Runeroxanne?

[vital coral]

I thought she partnered with Mismagius for a second because of the nickname

[lone stump]

RunnerRoxanne??

[normal ermine]

[fallen lagoon]

Makes sense, she’s a teacher and stuff

[vital coral]

Roxigus

[fallen lagoon]

And runner co-makes all the guides

[lone stump]

Roxanne (Alt 1)

there we go

[fallen lagoon]

[olive granite]

There are two things we do not support in this thread

-(Alt)
-Variety

[lone stump]

you'll think of a better nickname soon enough

[vital coral]

If you say it really fast it sounds like rocks suck

Naomi is just chilling there with her TMs

Do all three of those clears again at 3k points next month

[olive granite]

[lone stump]

I think I’ve done tech before. Support will take a while if I want it in video format

[dire pivot]

LySS SPOTTED

[olive granite]

Yea my steel strikers were Steven, Gloria, Molayne, Solgaleo

Instantly said no to that

[stark tiger]

why? steven can tank with that sweet sweet Vigilance at 5/5 and recuperation

[olive granite]

yea and then my dps is shot to shit because gloria is 1/5

[olive granite]

Man there’s no fun stuff to do

[normal ermine]

The wait for Fire HS feels like forever

[stark tiger]

Ooo congrats

[stark tiger]

I mean if you tryhard HS you're also gonna be resetting for very precise and ideal move rotation so

Like i said we're all just dumb slaves to RNG at the end of the day

[normal ermine]

This is true

[little badger]

how to start a war

[olive granite]

When I get Roxie tomorrow we are going to be gaming

[normal ermine]

[manic dock]

So true

[fallen lagoon]

This game sucks

[olive granite]

My cooking session will have to be delayed because my school is trying to kill me with work

Roxie gonna cook soon tho

[olive granite]

Rough draft teams for HS

Kiawe: Evelyn, Leaf, Serena
Blain: Marley, Hilda, Red
Flint: Tina, Leon, Irida
Chili: Kiawe, May, SS Hilda
Flannery: SS Morty, Silver, Ethan

Members waiting on the bench: Cerena

[normal ermine]

Ethan thinking that Eruption in the sun might be decent as backup damage?

[olive granite]

Yea

But if that doesn’t work I have a plan B

I would swap the Chili team to be

Kiawe/SS Hilda/Cerena,

the Blaine team to

Marley/Hilda/May,

and then the Flannery team to SS Morty/Silver/Red

But that’s all assuming Ethan isn’t a complete disappointment

[lone stump]

Not sure what rank I will go for

[olive granite]

Which isn’t a lot of hope but

We’ll try

[lone stump]

Top 100 is tricky

[olive granite]

I don’t think I will because not having Cinderace Reshiram or Flareon really sucks

Especially the former two

[lone stump]

I don’t have the Gloria, red, and Leon

[olive granite]

Yea that’s a tough blow

Especially since Leon is SE to two of the stages

And Gloria is just cracked

[normal ermine]

Which limiteds do you have above 1/5?

[olive granite]

All except NC Leaf and SS May

[tight thicket]

when om dount ethan will tank it out

[olive granite]

If Ethan can comfortably live a sync I would be livid because of the fact that Raichu needed to have every support imaginable to live with a sliver

So that would mean Ethan > Raichu, which means giving Ethan credit

[vital coral]

Its funny that Flint is considered better than Ethan

Because its hard to keep Eruption at full power

[olive granite]

Just don’t get hit

[vital coral]

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

Wait he has evasion

[tight thicket]

he also has damage guard

[olive granite]

That I knew

I forgot about evasion

[normal ermine]

I actually tried tanking with Ethan for a bit

It went about as well as you would expect

[olive granite]

Figures

[tight thicket]

Ive tanked with calem to good extend mainly good for LG tho

[normal ermine]

He cannot tank max offense CS, I can attest to that

[vital coral]

Teach me how to dodge sync moves

[normal ermine]

That's what Initial Guard is for

[olive granite]

You get outta the way

4 head

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

Well good news is that I did 3.5k

But it doesn’t really matter much cuz I used meta pairs so it’s not cool

[olive granite]

3.5k, with a lot of HP just because why not

“Well how much HP did you put Santos?” A lot

Did I enjoy it? No not really tbh
Did I do it cuz I was bored? Very much so

[normal ermine]

Hot damn

[reef night]

I always run max HP and once you start adding strength on top of that they get bulky rq

[tight thicket]

Im quite upser theyre not adding new params for 3K cause I feel so limited in choices

[junior obsidian]

same, especially when off-typing

[olive granite]

I don’t find it fun to do a lot of HP

[tight thicket]

me either

[junior obsidian]

It's kinda fun for me when I get to use the Max HP to get enough sync buffs for an on-type BIG NUMBER sync nuke

[olive granite]

You know what is fun

Doing optimized runs

Oh shit

Optimize is cooking

In all seriousness, I am trying to find more fun themes to do in CS

Strike/Tech/Support only was fun

[normal ermine]

Did you do support only with full strength? I feel like you did but I forgor

[olive granite]

It wasn’t with all of the strength but it was close

[normal ermine]

As long as it wasn't most or all stalls

[olive granite]

I actually did no stalls in my support only run

Straight DPS

[normal ermine]

as it should be

[tight thicket]

that would be me lel

We did ours the same day

[normal ermine]

Ohh that's right

[tight thicket]

Our teams were identical too woops

[normal ermine]

I did it too but that was to show off Rosa, Lyra, and Misty nukes

[olive granite]

I potentially have an idea that I’ll try out tmr

[normal ermine]

[stark tiger]

offtyping's going to be harder, i haven't really tried. but for ontyping 3k i've been adding HP 12 or so

[olive granite]

Passionate Spirit vs CSMM

[worthy geyser]

that's a theme

didn't expect Lucy

[lone stump]

Jeez luck is on your side to get the mix unit early lol

Most of them check out with passionate spirit

[olive granite]

I got him twice

Which isn’t as good as you think it is

Cuz I want stuff I don’t have

Technically the gauge for the Hala team isn’t that bad since Gloria recharges it all back

But my god was it slow in between

[worthy geyser]

using Gloria for Hala is a pretty smart move tbh

[tight thicket]

surely thats not a poison stall with e,,a

[olive granite]

I don’t believe in poison stall

It’s the most unfun play style in this game

[reef night]

So true

[tight thicket]

So real

[olive granite]

My teams for tomorrow

I will also be testing our Roxanne and Cerena vs Blaine and Chili respectively

[normal ermine]

[lone stump]

its tomorrow!!!

[normal ermine]

I'm really hoping that all-Fire teams do better than the teams with off-type dps

[olive granite]

Idk Cerena is pretty cracked

flashbacks to my Marlon run in water HS

[lone stump]

hey marlon was an mvp for my water hs

for getting unyielding 3 times

[olive granite]

I’m hoping the debuffs will help me out somewhat

[normal ermine]

I expect that teams with Cerena and/or Foxanne will be very good, I just feel like it's a bit contrary to the intent of the HS

[olive granite]

The issue is that Kiawe doesn’t know the meaning of buffing defense

[lone stump]

kiawe: the best defense is more offense

[olive granite]

So I am a literal glass canon

[normal ermine]

Who needs to buff defense when you can kill your opponents before they attack

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

I’m basically doing a pre sync run vs Chili

[normal ermine]

That's me with Flannery lmao

Torchic doesn't buff defenses either and Silver isn't the tankiest

[olive granite]

Oh Flannery I can take all the way til hell freezes over

[lone stump]

both of you have the extra strikers I don't have ok lol

both of you will be fine

[olive granite]

At least that’s what I’d like to think but the issue is Silver being frail

[normal ermine]

Silver is surprisingly frail, yeah

I think SS Morty should help make that up though

[normal ermine]

You're not going for top 100

[lone stump]

i don't have the depth for top 100

[olive granite]

This gear is gonna potentially be my saving grace

Not vs Flannery but for others

[normal ermine]

That's a nice one

I've rerolled so many gears and gotten nothing good

[lone stump]

Chezei have you worked with those gears yet...

I haven't...

[normal ermine]

I've tried so many!! They all suck!!

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

There’s also this one that I’ll be using vs Kiawe specific

So I’ll tank somewhat better

But my concern is still there

[normal ermine]

Who's gonna be able to use it though?

The themes are Rock Ice Alola

Those effects are great though

[olive granite]

The effects are all that I care about

Wait does it not work if they don’t have the theme

[normal ermine]

I don't think so

I don't even think you get half the benefit like type gears

[olive granite]

I’m still learning these

Like idk how the themes play into it

[normal ermine]

Same here honestly

[fallen lagoon]

No, they don’t give any stats or passives to those without the theme

[olive granite]

So you’re saying I won’t get the Fire S Up effect?

[fallen lagoon]

That is what i’m saying, but ask in #916852044692856834 just to make sure

[olive granite]

Stinky

[reef night]

I used Fall Roxanne too

[olive granite]

Improvements are being made

[reef night]

Cringe

stop pushing

Your score is great already

[olive granite]

I will further improve in 5 days cuz that’s my next Omni candy

AKA, when Leaf gets 3/5

[reef night]

Your scores a lot more consistent than mine. I've got an 80k and a 70k and then one's 30k

[olive granite]

Wtf

[stark tiger]

a lot of people are using double ho-oh on flannery. what's the strat?

like, what grid do you run on silver cause sync is useless

is it just a game of endurance because morty is unkillable under sun

[normal ermine]

It seems to be post-sync mostly? Hurt the middle, blow up the sides, then take down mid

If you kill mid too quickly, the sides start spamming AoE, but Flannery herself doesn't

[olive granite]

This

Plus overheat does respectable damage

[stark tiger]

i see

[olive granite]

Everyone else uses reshiram alongside them

But since I don’t have him I had to use the best psychic type, Ethan

[normal ermine]

I used Football Gloria

[olive granite]

Another unit I don’t have

I’m most likely gonna call this one quits after I hit 300k

[lone stump]

imagine being able to hit 300k

[olive granite]

Since this is physically painful

Flint and Chili are both pain in asses

[vital coral]

[stark tiger]

rip nc blue's bmove on a no healing stage

[olive granite]

Yea

Thankfully his debuffs and flinch are still broken

[stark tiger]

would you say it's worth bringing offtype units to tank/debuff? how much strength did you have to add to compensate for the lack of multipliers

[olive granite]

The only ones that are worth it to me is Blue, Cerena, and Foxanne

Actually those are old scores

Blaine is at 600

Flint at 500

[stark tiger]

ah yeah i've been seeing these three repeatedly

[olive granite]

Tmr NC leaf gets 3/5 so we’ll be cooking

[reef night]

You reckon you're pushing to 300k?

[olive granite]

100%

With 3/5 leaf I’ll make it to probably 310k

[lone stump]

[reef night]

Kidding, good luck

[olive granite]

Alright well for now this is fine

[orchid spire]

hey i see you now

nice work!

[olive granite]

Flare Blitz is not 10% chance to burn btw

I refuse to believe it

Leaf kept getting the burn for 4 runs consecutively

Which sounds good for the parameter, but it messes up my hypnosis

[reef night]

Definitely no HE4 picked up on grid?

[normal ermine]

Flare Blitz only burns if you need it not to tbh

If you want it to burn, it's like 1%

[reef night]

Ah shit you overtook me congrats tho

[lone stump]

You know what to do, arch

[olive granite]

I should be able to maintain top 100

Hopefully

Maybe

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

Did a little improvement here

But tmr will be the real spike

[normal ermine]

I can't help but read "tmr" as The Masked Royal and I was so confused for a minute as to how he was gonna help

[olive granite]

He’ll clutch up vs Dark HS

[normal ermine]

I hope that isn't for a while the support situation for Dark is even worse than Fire

[stark tiger]

Didn't know Nick was tryharding HS. But then again he does Fire MAX so I should have known

[olive granite]

Yea he and runner are going all in

[olive granite]

Don’t think I’ll be able to improve that much more but I’ll keep trying

If not, then here’s the area I’ll be around

[worthy geyser]

[reef night]

[dire pivot]

ETHAN LFG

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

I am desperately trying to hold onto my top 100

I can feel it slipping away from me

[normal ermine]

You can do it!

But also I'm coming for your spot

[olive granite]

[tight thicket]

didnt do ethan + serena smh

[stark tiger]

That's for psychic HS

[olive granite]

Fr

[fallen lagoon]

[normal ermine]

Waiting for someone to get like 150k with those two on the Psychic HS

[tight thicket]

!!

[lone stump]

Psychic HS is my only hope

[olive granite]

I put my blood sweat and tears into building my account for 4 years, and I get rewarded with 300 gems

[reef night]

[normal ermine]

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

@normal ermine

[normal ermine]

I guess I have to retake my spot now!

[olive granite]

I needed someone to compete with

Nick is MIA and I don’t think Arc can improve much

[normal ermine]

I'm more than happy to be your competition!

[reef night]

wow y'all are pushing, good luck to you both

[olive granite]

Dabbo is too far ahead

[normal ermine]

[lone stump]

I mean, you can try to compete with Runner

[olive granite]

Do you see where he is in the leaderboard

[lone stump]

I know he is #1 lol

[olive granite]

No he’s dropped a bit he’s in like the top 15

[lone stump]

I don’t look at the scores tho, that would make me sad

[olive granite]

But that’s not competition at that point

That’s copium

[lone stump]

Oh shoot

I don’t want to look at 400k+ scores

[olive granite]

Yea runner is at 17 rn

[lone stump]

Oh Japanese players it looks like

442k wtf

[olive granite]

I feel so unmotivated to improve my HS score

Like this one is so unfun compared to the others

[normal ermine]

I feel that. I don't expect it to go up very much from here either

[dire pivot]

Yeah the health requirement really sucks the fun out of it imo

And they all hit like trucks

[lone stump]

At least you are up there, santos and Chezei lol

[normal ermine]

True, I'd rather be at the top of an unfun HS than have yet another LG

[olive granite]

I don’t think I’ll be up there at the end

[normal ermine]

I believe in you!

[lone stump]

I think it’s a combination of an unfun LG going into an unfun HS going into a definite frustration 1 mil HP Entei event that makes everything not motivating

[dire pivot]

LG slander smh

[lone stump]

I had a weaker group of electric units but I wasn’t demoralized like Fire HS lol

[junior obsidian]

the LG was good for me but everything else was
yeah

I don’t think I even want to push for 180k anymore, not unless I get lucky on the SS May/SS Morty banner

[normal ermine]

I'm hoping that we get something actually fun in December as a breather in between this HS and what'll definitely be Grass HS

[stark tiger]

The previous LG was fun!

Complain about Tornadus all you want but the Moltres Uxie Latias LG we got beforehand was waaay worse

[dire pivot]

Yeah the last LG was great, idgi

Any LG with lmaotios is a winner

[stark tiger]

Though having loltios gives people a lot of dilemma. "Should this unit be used to solo loltios or carry another unit for the other two"

"is this unit trash enough that latios is the only stage it can go to"

[olive granite]

This isn’t as great as some people who have 100k+ but considering I don’t have the support cake for her, I’ll take it

[olive granite]

Good news: I can most likely maintain top 100

Bad news: it will be my lowest ranking of the 3 so far

[normal ermine]

At least you still have it!

[lone stump]

Can you continue it if it’s psychic or grass next

[olive granite]

grass yes 100%

psychic maybe

[olive granite]

Last day push going crazy

[lone stump]

Top 100 still?

[olive granite]

Yep

Jumped up a bit

Im at 63 rn

[olive granite]

Yea I can’t really do much else

Oh well

This is where I stopped

[normal ermine]

That Flint team can go higher smh /s

Very nicely done!!

[olive granite]

It probably can but Marley is so shit that I just don’t wanna try that again

[normal ermine]

That is very fair. I'm trying to push my Blaine team higher with her and

[stark tiger]

[olive granite]

Rock type blue my behated

Why are Rock supports non existent

And none of them boost crit wtf 😭

[lone stump]

I'm sure we will be given a solution by Dena in the future

[olive granite]

I don’t think they know that rock types can support too

[lone stump]

MF rock support in the near future

[olive granite]

It was almost a full monotype

The most noteworthy one

[stark tiger]

is...is that strike aerodactyl

[olive granite]

No that’s support aerodactyl

[orchid spire]

regirock roxanne and bp olivia: do we mean nothing to you

[olive granite]

Yes

[stark tiger]

should've nuked with roxanne smh

[lone stump]

[tight thicket]

No tech Ex role

Smh

[olive granite]

You will never see me give a support a tech cake

Unless it’s Wulfric

In which case he has to get an alt first

[lone stump]

Holiday Wulfric

[olive granite]

Im hoping

Tho if I’m being realistic, even Candice has better odds

[little badger]

Candice already got an alt

[lone stump]

BP Wulfric it is

[olive granite]

I meant for holiday

[olive granite]

Official rank for Fire HS

[reef night]

[vital coral]

[dire pivot]

[fallen lagoon]

Smh should have dropped one place

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

Ik man I’m disappointed

[olive granite]

Grant ftw

[lone stump]

You were so close to greatness

How many points did 69th get

[olive granite]

Lower than mine

https://tenor.com/view/regular-show-ooh-regular-show-gif-5715487

[lone stump]

[lone stump]

You just needed to score a little over 1000 less points smh

[olive granite]

At least I had the rank for a bit

[olive granite]

Grant gaming, part 2

f2p edition

Actually, does Shauna count as f2p?

[reef night]

kinda blurs that line tbh, I usually lump gen pool into f2p for older pairs but the pool is so big now. rates of specific ones are going to be super low

[tired echo]

Kalos ticket banner:

[stark tiger]

RNG can still screw you over. back when the pool only consisted of clemont and serena, i kept losing the 50/50 chance and kept getting clemont. i got my 3/5 serena from another scout, not kalos tickets 😭

[olive granite]

im going to cook so hard in this grass HS

but in the meantime, CS clears soon

[olive granite]

Decided to have some fun this time

1/5 NY Dawn sucks

(Sorry Chezei)

[lone stump]

Don’t let Chezei see this

[tight thicket]

8.7/10 not enough water

[normal ermine]

I hate to admit it, but you're right, she really needs 3/5 to shine

[vital coral]

All Dawn sucks at 1/5

🏃‍♂️

[normal ermine]

SS Dawn and Pal Dawn do quite well at 1/5, thank you very much!

[olive granite]

I wanna try out shauntal

i hear she kinda cooks

oh wait, I don't have many 5* tickets......

[normal ermine]

She is very cool, I can vouch for her

She was doing as much as Anni Lillie when I tested her out

[olive granite]

Using Nate to support Nate

[worthy geyser]

please candy him

you won't convince me you don't have strike candies

everybody does

[lone stump]

just wait till we have dragon HS to use them

[olive granite]

no they are being given to SC Sonia for grass HS

also insert comment of zerena being better

[worthy geyser]

then why

[olive granite]

nick told me to do a yolo multi so i did it

[ruby sinew]

gotta

[olive granite]

plus unova circus is neat

Dang so both you and Pykuo got on 1st multi

[worthy geyser]

[lone stump]

First multi gang

[olive granite]

2nd for me

I was petty that my first multi wasn't a spark

but yea it was rather lucky of me to get him

nick and I are firm believers of the winners mindset

@worthy geyser did you give him rolex

[worthy geyser]

i am still in the process of pulling him after 5 dead multis

but yea i will

[olive granite]

oh

rip

how many points

[worthy geyser]

169

there will be enough by the time he's gone

[olive granite]

damn

when you get him, ping me for that 3/5 rolex showcase

[worthy geyser]

tixx and Arch have that iirc, but i will ye

[normal ermine]

I don't have strike candies!

[vital coral]

[tight thicket]

thats because you used them all on Furburt right!

[normal ermine]

I got him to 3/5 before I got F Acerola, who is actually good

[stark tiger]

#1011173305702690876 message i got u some 3/5 rolex showcases too!

[olive granite]

[olive granite]

Did some slightly goofy runs

[reef night]

No Shauntal EX

[olive granite]

I literally don’t have the tickets for it

And even if I did they’d go to sycamore

[normal ermine]

Iris!

[olive granite]

Shauntal was still fun to use tho

Blue + LCalem was pretty fun too

[normal ermine]

Shauntal is surprisingly great. I still can't get over how she did as much damage as Anni Lillie for me

[olive granite]

I like using Rei and Akari together

[lone stump]

I wish i had them

[normal ermine]

Hopefully they'll be in select scouts

[junior obsidian]

dual Haxorus is the same genre of team as dualCario: the team has an extremely obvious carry but like
it still works well

[normal ermine]

Korrina do be carrying in dualCario

[junior obsidian]

true! Mega Evolution Successor >>> some rando archaeologist /jk

[fallen lagoon]

Smh can’t even get hired as a history professor

[olive granite]

Yea Iris carried Nate cuz he sucks at 1/5

[junior obsidian]

ah, so they really are the same genre of team as the DualCario

[olive granite]

300 gems

[lone stump]

Technically only needs 1 MF to complete

[reef night]

So accessible!

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

I forgot how long these fights take with him

[olive granite]

Sprint is just the best role

[lone stump]

Wish I had Nemona . But you have 5/5 Nemona

[olive granite]

I am a proud nemona stan

[olive granite]

Alder lets gooo

[olive granite]

Field Pairs only this time

Actually worked better than I thought it would

[worthy geyser]

ex that viola

[olive granite]

I will soon

But I won’t be using her EX colors

I like her base outfit more

[worthy geyser]

i agree

[dire pivot]

EX her and use the base colours smh Santos

[olive granite]

I’m waiting until I get sycamore tomorrow

[dire pivot]

Okay fair 😌

[olive granite]

Man idk if y’all use BP Candice but she’s just fun

Idk how else to describe it

Obviously especially when she’s next to Irida cuz of hail and zone

But I genuinely like using her more than NC red

[stark tiger]

that's quite the hot take

[normal ermine]

Idk they seem pretty cold to me

[olive granite]

This gave me ptsd

[dire pivot]

The full on-type clear!

[stark tiger]

gonna do the same thing later once LG is done

[olive granite]

Finally got around to EXing Shauntal

Shoutout to mix banner for giving me so many damn 5* tickets

Also -3 grass rebuff was fun

[normal ermine]

How was that Kahili team?

Also EX your Allister

[lone stump]

Kukui in shambles facing that trio

[olive granite]

I should mention before answering that none of them have high move levels (the highest being Steven at 2/5)

Having said that, it’s about as easy as you’d expect

Elio debuff, Rosa rebuff, Steven nukes them to oblivion

[normal ermine]

Sounds about right, SSteven is a bit broken

Mine is still 1/5 and not EXed lol

[olive granite]

yea I have a few that need to be EX’d

[normal ermine]

Okay good, as long as he's on your list

[reef night]

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

Bugsy stonks

[normal ermine]

Smh why no SC Ingo

[olive granite]

I don’t have him

[normal ermine]

[tight thicket]

In case you didnt know Twineedle is a lot worse than Fell stinger

like apparently grabbing all twineedle multipliers still has a lower outcome than just fell stinger bp

[olive granite]

That sounds right but just feels like it shouldn’t be

Also

I’ll be cooking in HS…soon

[stark tiger]

[vital coral]

im cheering for ya

[olive granite]

Guys I’m so good

Just ignore the fact that this screenshot was taken 9 hours ago

[little badger]

and that you're now outclassed by over 180k points

[olive granite]

Shhhh

[worthy geyser]

you have an Ash profile pic

you're so gonna get banned

there is no Ash in pokemon masters EX

how dare you show a licensed character

[lone stump]

Cami also in shambles

[worthy geyser]

nah cami is fine, James is not as recognizable

[olive granite]

Can push a lot of them but for right now this is where I’m at

[worthy geyser]

no Selene, therefore entry invalidated

is what i would have said a few months ago but SC Rosa is based so ggwp

[olive granite]

Selene is so bad for this event

I tried spirit shackle vs mallow and it was so shit

[worthy geyser]

skill issue ngl

[ruby sinew]

400k yet?

[olive granite]

Almost

396k rn

[ruby sinew]

[olive granite]

500
660
600
1000
500

[ruby sinew]

I'm coming for you

Give me a week 😂😂

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

Brother in a week I will be moving up as well

Because keep in mind, my Adaman isn’t 3/5

[lone stump]

5/5 Mix Red wtf

[olive granite]

No he’s actually 20/5

(I’m not joking, I’ve been keeping count)

[lone stump]

that's more 5* than I have gotten in that whole scout on that banner

[normal ermine]

I gave up on counting how many times Red shows up

[normal ermine]

why triple support vs Erika?

[olive granite]

Well leaf is a tech

But I know what you mean

You’re syncing with leaf then Lyra and then leaf again

Shauna is just there to spiky shield

And make you mad when that spiky shield doesn’t refresh

[normal ermine]

Oof I see

I haven't even started my runs yet honestly

[olive granite]

Think you’re gonna do as well as fire one or nah?

[normal ermine]

Nah, I'm missing Adaman I'll give it my all, but I think that's a big limiting factor for me

[stark tiger]

Just give him to me. i'll get the adoption papers ready.

[olive granite]

Tell me where to sign

[ruby sinew]

Just looking at your roster Santos. Once you get adaman 3/5 looks like you can get 480k to 485k

Wait no. You can hit 500k!

[olive granite]

No I don’t have 5/5 leaf

[ruby sinew]

Hear me out.

Ramos - you already got 95k
Erika you can 1000 - ss Erika, nc leaf, Hsycamore. Elek has video. 83k
Mallow - keep the same. Although I think this will be easier even with 3/5 ss leaf over mallow. Push for 90k
Gardenia - 120k
Cilan - adaman, LBlue, victor. Rosa Stan did this. 100k otherwise you can do mallow adaman LBlue Jo and I did 100k there.

If you get an extra 5k somehow that’s 490k - 500k

Like Mallow run I think you can push for 92k and Cilan 103k

That’s your 5k

O another arrangement would be.

Victor. Nc leaf. Hsycamore.

Then go for 110k ss erika adaman lblue

[olive granite]

My Victor is 1/5

[ruby sinew]

O then the first arrangement

With ss leaf over mallow. And mallow over ss Erika

I don’t think you will be lower than what you have now

[olive granite]

I’ll keep it in mind

But I can’t do any of that til I get Adaman to 3/5

Which will mean I gotta wait a few more days

[olive granite]

Making 1/5 Victor work

[olive granite]

1000 Strength RAAAAAAAAAHH

[ruby sinew]

Yo you dropped the candies for 10k respect 👑

[olive granite]

No I didn't candy

Just got lucky in the multi I did

[ruby sinew]

Now you have everything for 500k

[olive granite]

Aside from leaf

Crying inside

[ruby sinew]

You don’t have 3/5

[olive granite]

I do

4/5

[worthy geyser]

damn lfg champ

[olive granite]

After some annoying resets because Acerola’s TM wouldn’t refresh, finally did this

As it turns out, MPR2 kinda sucks

[ruby sinew]

I only learnt recently that mpr2 means you get 2 refresh out of 100

[vital coral]

[olive granite]

@worn crane

700
640
640
1000
500

[ruby sinew]

Nice work brother. 3/5 adaman will unleash the last 30k!

That SS Erika run is interesting.

[olive granite]

I would not recommend

Very RNG heavy

[ruby sinew]

Yea I imagined you need propulsion and sunny+potion mpr

[olive granite]

Propulsion not so much

Sun and potion, yes

[ruby sinew]

Skill issues I need propulsion to make up for my lack of quad queue 😂

[dire pivot]

You're a machine Santos

[stark tiger]

Go go go

[cedar brook]

[ruby sinew]

How important is victor here? Was he nuking? I wonder if I can hit 80k with ss Erika and 1/5 hsyca + X

[olive granite]

He was attacking victrebel to get it low enough to skip its turn

I think he’s important because he ignores Endurance

[olive granite]

700
640
640
1000
870

[ruby sinew]

Grats Santos!

[lone stump]

500k

Congrats mate

[ruby sinew]

What grid did you end up going for on Mallow

[ruby sinew]

I take it you felt the slight gauge issue too end game

Hence the speed and mgr

[olive granite]

Nah end game had good gauge

Beginning was a little rough

Here @ruby sinew #1128052735967764621 message

[ruby sinew]

Ok you have tipped me to reset for 900

[olive granite]

900 might not be possible

Leaf blade and power whip didn't do that much DPS

[ruby sinew]

Drop mgr for charging sun? What you reckon

Just for that extra dmg

Also 1 tm mpr would get you 1 turn ahead

[ruby sinew]

@lapis otter

[lapis otter]

by mallow team i meant fighting against mallow, selene asserola and ssleaf

@ruby sinew le ping in case no see

[olive granite]

Oh

Uh

Selene

[lapis otter]

yeup

[olive granite]

I almost forgot about CS

Same trainers ftw

[normal ermine]

Chezei theme and same trainer theme?!

Bro poor Aaron 😭

[olive granite]

Dude was getting frozen and volt tackled to oblivion

[dire pivot]

He got hit with the ....!!

[olive granite]

Tai that Diantha clear was so stressful

It depended entirely on Aura Sphere flinching

[dire pivot]

I was gunna say

what did the gauge do to you

[olive granite]

Stop the gauge was soooooooo bad

[dire pivot]

don't you just love that Hit The Gas slow crawl up to 4 bars

[olive granite]

Wanna know what made it worse

The fact that it was still bad despite the fact that keldeo has a literal move gauge button

[dire pivot]

the triple Diantha is not for the weak of heart ❤️

[olive granite]

I’ve decided to not push any higher cuz I’m burnt out, so these are my final scores

[vital coral]

impressive

[reef night]

Insane, gg

[stark tiger]

Well done!

[olive granite]

Official rank for Grass HS

[olive granite]

I could’ve gone higher, but at the very least I’m glad to be in the top 20

[normal ermine]

Stellar job Santos!!

[olive granite]

And happy to be one of the few people to hit 500k

[normal ermine]

Are you gonna shoot for near the top for Psychic?

[ruby sinew]

Grats bro!

[reef night]

Nicely done

[vital coral]

Santos goat

[dire pivot]

Nice!!

[worthy geyser]

idk what's crazier the fact you have 500k or the fact you're only 17th with 500k
HS sure has evolved
congratz!

[olive granite]

Nah I’m gonna kick back this time

[normal ermine]

fair enough. Good to take a rest every so often

[olive granite]

Bea ftw

Totally not carried by Apple

[normal ermine]

And Ash

[olive granite]

Spamming his b move is hilarious

[normal ermine]

M Pizza (and Apple by proxy) is so good

[lapis otter]

Wait you can spam his b move?

Yoooo??????

That sounds so fucking fun

[sweet wyvern]

Highest score of the day so far?

[olive granite]

I only did one clear so far

School stuff and what not

Gonna do others soon

[olive granite]

All my homies hate Palmer stage

[lapis otter]

One day I’ll get him and experience the pain

[olive granite]

I hope that day doesn’t come for a long time

[fallen lagoon]

I got Palmer 3 times, I’ve never gotten Lucy or Argenta

[olive granite]

I don’t want to ever fight Lucy

[fallen lagoon]

I hear that it’s even hard in Hard mode since Poison damage doesn’t matter

[tired echo]

bro I beat Lucy first try in Rally. She's not that hard to beat.

[fallen lagoon]

With what team and items

[olive granite]

^

[tired echo]

straight up 300% regional boost and nothing else. idr if it waas the Hard variant tho ... so it probably was.

[olive granite]

Decided to finally start LG

At least somewhat

[worn crane]

the boi.

[olive granite]

TIL akari can solo latios. Not shocking in retrospect but for some reason I didn’t think of it

[little badger]

potion -> solo latios

[olive granite]

Mix Red ftw

Not carried by Adaman

[ruby sinew]

Does sycamore need antioxin?

[olive granite]

Why would he?

Does Argenta use poison moves?

[little badger]

No

[ruby sinew]

O I didn’t really read the fight. I must have remembered wrong from a BR conversation

[orchid spire]

probably thinking of lucy

[olive granite]

Hate this fight with every fiber of my being

[little badger]

who doesn't (the ss gladion havers)

[ruby sinew]

Pretty sure i clicked the b move and everything died

[manic dock]

Piercing Fleur Cannon my beloved

[olive granite]

You mean the pair made for the stage is good for the stage?

[normal ermine]

Impossible! Must be fake news

[lone stump]

[olive granite]

Bringing back the good ol’ classic

Doing optimized CS runs

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

Man I wonder how this will go

[normal ermine]

Might be kinda tricky idk

[olive granite]

True

Might actually be harder than Palmer ube

[normal ermine]

[olive granite]

I’m a lusamine hater now

[normal ermine]

welcome to the team

[reef night]

She's trying her best

[olive granite]

Her best is viola’s worst

[stark tiger]

i want to do optimize run but i'm scared of what they'll give me for steel-weak

[normal ermine]

Wikky jumpscare

[olive granite]

Well if you have Gloria or Tate you’ll probably get them

[vital coral]

Can confirm, i got both Gloria

[stark tiger]

oof, yeah I do have Gloria

[normal ermine]

She's all you need!

[stark tiger]

i highly doubt that

[normal ermine]

She's more than enough at 5/5

[orchid spire]

i knew before i scrolled id see cbede for an optimize run

it just can’t help itself, you gotta use the bratty mage

[normal ermine]

It didn't give me Bede for my optimize runs! I got stuck with SC Lyra trying to support Leon and Zerena

[olive granite]

I didn’t get to take a screenshot but I finally got Lucy on VH

First legit VH win lol

[normal ermine]

For Lucy specifically or in general?

[olive granite]

In general

[normal ermine]

nice!!

[fallen lagoon]

As in boostless or?

[olive granite]

Yea

[fallen lagoon]

What team?

[olive granite]

SS Morty F!Roxanne NC Leaf

[olive granite]

4K off type

[reef night]

Roxie sweep

[ruby sinew]

I watched the whole thing. Roxie def showcasing her dps. But I can't help but see.

[olive granite]

No way it does more than mortal spin in zone

[ruby sinew]

You made me check. 😂

[olive granite]

That makes me so sad

[ruby sinew]

But that's ontype vs off type though

She is hitting like a truck regardless

[little badger]

That doesnt count rock slide se9 right

[olive granite]

Giovanni my goat

But yea as you can see my pairs are not built for this so my score wont be as crazy as the other ones

[vital coral]

How much strength did you took on Will?

[olive granite]

i think 350

ah, 300

[vital coral]

So spdef debuffs definitely matter. I tried using Giovanni with Light Screen and no spdef buffs and he still got ohko

[olive granite]

Bumped up a bit

Finally hit 300k

[olive granite]

This time vs Bruno and with Emma instead of Roxie

[olive granite]

He puts the L in Palmer

[olive granite]

Apparently my phone wasn’t recording but I cleared 4k off type will with Paulo/Diantha/Silver

Shoutout to my boi Paulo for being such a goated unit

[olive granite]

4k off type runs complete

@reef night pinging you cuz I ended up finding a different strat for koga

I remembered that celebi was a thing

[normal ermine]

Classic

[olive granite]

The first two were the most fun

Geeta and Emma are pretty fun

And then Paulo is already fun on his own to use

I wanna hurry up and get my next candy to make silver 3/5

The run could’ve been way smoother

[reef night]

Oh shit lowkey forgot to get back to you

But ay, nice, can't go wrong with the Lyra fix. Giving me Adaman fomo smh

[olive granite]

wow smh smh

[little badger]

That Koga team is so overkill

[olive granite]

It’s deserved

[olive granite]

This is so funny

[reef night]

Oh wow that looks really fun

I need Paulo immediately

[olive granite]

Get Paulo and Geeta

Look at that damage

Only hard part was having to reset cuz of drill pecks or facade

[reef night]

Paulo yes, Geeta who

[reef night]

Oh yeah those can hurt

[lone stump]

Can’t spell geeta without get

[olive granite]

I’m late to the 3/5 Silver is broken club but being able to pre sync this fight is so satisfying

[ruby sinew]

Is that Darrach?

[olive granite]

Yep

[olive granite]

Going back to 3k after doing 4k runs feels so easy

[reef night]

Your problem was going back to 3k

[olive granite]

PB

Took too damn long

[normal ermine]

[stark tiger]

i still don't know how people reach 10k base points

[junior obsidian]

looooots of RolEX units to enable going at least 3x point multipliers is my guess

[little badger]

15 EX roles

[olive granite]

I got a lucky stage and I had 3 2.0x pairs for it

So that mainly helped

[olive granite]

Not my cleanest clear but using sing and bullet punch to skip turns sounded fun

[olive granite]

Not really showcasing Selene a lot but this was a pretty fun run

[worthy geyser]

i mean that's an euphemism, Selene litteraly did nothing there apart from the first flinch
that's one reason i didn't want to pair with Silver personally, it just didn't really feel like she pulled her weight because dude is a powerhouse.
But damn i need 3/5 Silver tho

[reef night]

Ugh the Paulo fomo is back

You should definitely invest Silver, incredible unit

[worthy geyser]

you should definitely get Paulo from mix

[reef night]

[lone stump]

if I had Rei before pity, I definitely would have gotten Paulo from mix

[olive granite]

Yea i felt that she would do more on paper

Silver steals the show

[worthy geyser]

yours is 3/5 right?

how would you say is the diff between 1/5 and 3/5

[olive granite]

Yea

Honestly 3/5 is mostly just sync stuff and circle extension

[worthy geyser]

[olive granite]

So if you don’t care about that 1/5 is fine

I wanted to try Selene with rose but he’s only 1/5

[olive granite]
