#High Score
1 messages · Page 6 of 1
I feel like I am doing something fundamentally wrong
That's right. He's not fit for longer battles like this. Bring a defense/sp def buffer with him
You get forced to play specific pairs if you want high scores though
And also, RNG galore
This Hilbert team worked
Yeah but I liked the chance to mix and match with stuff I wouldn’t normally do
...damn, the only Def buffer I am free to use is Marlon...
This was with like 330 strength too
I mean, I am using Hilbert against Lana
But that's the same thing with LG. And now you need to entertain the RNG in next moves
AI can decide to just spam aoe instead of buffing, for example
So maybe Lana just hits harder
Maybe
Or you get lucky and they keep buffing
Yeah but I only have to do this 5 times instead of 50
Only if you don't go for broke
She has strong moves that, if unlucky, she likes to spam
And you can't even heal in her stage
I'd bring my very best tank
Or flinch her, but this is tricky cause of Resilience
yeah you know, being able to hit all goals in a short amount of time is just more enjoyable. You could also just casual this if you wanted
I didn't even make use of Hilbert even if I have him at EX
10 streaks is much easier than 180k.

Casuals gonna hate this mode
10 streaks is boresville lol
Honestly I disagree
I got 180k first try but doing 10 streaks in LG takes too much brainpower for me
I think they're pretty equal
Bicio on top as always
10 streaks also depend on the LG rotation
Bicio going crazy
That's an overestimation. Building 15 water is much tougher than 10 streaks even with powerhouses like Latias
You cannot even use those broken f2p pairs because they aren't the right type 
I'm surprised no one is asking "Hey can I clear this without spending orbs" yet
That high score medal will be given to how many players
The building part maybe, but looking back, 180k itself isn't a very difficult thing to achieve
Honestly I looked at the stages and from there I decided who my main damage dealers were gonna be
Dropping this here for the copy paste
Only the Master rank, I think? So top 10k players. Don't quote me on that though
And then teambuilding came pretty easily from there
Ohk! I guess that I’ll be able to get it
Ready to be sniped 
Nah you've got like 100k more than most people here
Remember this is only the 2nd day
I guess I will not be convinced until an actual 180k clear with f2p
If LG is anything to go by, those last minute climbers are feral
uh never mind i don't remember my strengths lol
Them tryhards emerging from the woods as always 
All f2p? Or mostly f2p
So far I've seen like, 68k for all f2p
Let's go with no limited
And 14 days ahead of us
Btw I’m totally fine with being sniped otherwise I would have not shared teams and strategies here 
Coming from aurochs. But we'll see if the gaming eevee will do it?
Damn, even with a Strength increase of only 190 instead of 200, SS Grims/Hilbert/Marlon is STILL unable to come even close to beating Lana
All I know it's gonna be grueling to get that 180k without powerhouses like Cerena and co
Ehhhh
...do I really have to EX someone now just to win? 😦
You can see my teams
If only OG Kris could duplicate herself for 3 more teams
Probably because Marlon folds like paper faster than Hilbert
those two aren't good tanks
what's the minimum to be added?
Hmmm, haven't considered one, yet.
Idk if your SS Blue is still available, Trin, but if you get lucky, he can stand a chance
Top 300 maybe?
These are my clears as of last night and it's mostly f2p
My thoughts exactly 
I could probably swap Eusine out for like Wake and it'd still work
So f2p clears aren't impossible
For now if it's formatted correctly I'll post it. If it gets too long I'll consider a point floor.
F2p clears with 2 waters + f2p ontype is definitely doable
Yeah 100%
ok thanks
Hard but not impossible
Nessa 200
Archie 430
Lana 440
Marlon 550
Misty 400
I only know most content creators I checked haven't uploaded a video on this yet
Probably hiding their sauce 
Edit in Strength of each stage as text list. Right now you can only see the strength as a score of points.
Ah, you mean the 0-1000 value?
Damn
Before going to sleep I was like 340
Im now 554 
Yes.
Can't beat Marlon with my Wake/Nessa team
Can't beat Lana with my SS Grims team
Can't beat Nessa with my Eusine team
trin have you seen my teams
Okay, how can I add it as a photo tho, do I SS a note with the values?
Not yet...are they all mono-water types?
Yes
Sorry if I'm annoying
I'm quite sure you have all my pairs too
Here @red pendant
I want to see some clear 180k with like level 125s lol
Ah, damn, I already used Lana on Archie, though...
The screenshot you posted is fine, just edit the discord post and include the strength level of each stage. Like what Bicio did.
Oh ok
and Archie is one of those battles I don't really want to redo because of how annoying it was to beat it in the first place
Lana on Archie is a good idea since she can leech HP
Alright, so here's an idea I have
This is the current team I use against Lana, and you can see which water type sync pairs are still available for me
So...uh...just tell me who to swap out with who, and I'll see if I can do that swap
Genuinely think wake is better than grims in that team if you wanna play around flinch rng
misty 15,000 / 400
marlon 19500 / 550
lana 16200 / 440
nessa 9000 / 200
archie 15900 / 430
that looks like what you did.
Yeah I was about to boot up to calc
Uhhh checks out? Gimme 2
Look... I know I'm bad at this game, but I don't need to be embarrassed this early in the morning ☠️
I dropped like 250 placements last night.
Still in top 500, but hoping to stay there and not have to try this event again
If I replace SS Grims in the Vs. Lana team with Wake, do I replace Wake in the Vs. Marlon team with Wallace then?
Also, one problem with flinch is that once it runs out, the opponent can nullify all it's conditions
and for some reasons, Flinch always runs out the fastest
I'd just try to clear one of the two first
Then worry afterwards
I think you'll be fine unless the minimum points suddenly increases
Rn it's like 160k points minimum
To get in top 10000
180k is needed for all the rewards.
I got to like 275k
Edited @onyx crystal
If you're around top 500 rn you're probably fine for top 10k at the end

I've been tracking points and ranking, and I think it's 95% chance to be within 10000 still
my real issue with this is scraping the codex's to take my guys to 140 lmao
i think i have enough pairs to do this just dont have the resources to take them up as of rn 
What about top 2000
Teams, Strength?
team are likely to be those, but he got more points since
Man, I should be ashamed with my 1/5 SS Lysandre 
i also have 1/5 lysandre but that's about it lol
One message removed from a suspended account.
Got 350 on Marlon and got 61k
I mean aside SS kris and ssb (3/5) i only used 2 other water limiteds and both were 1/5
Well, I didn't bother to use SS Kris and Lysandre, so there's that 
Most limited 1/5 are bonkers
I'm happy with 270k for now
I'm 287k but I hope I can push to 290k just for OCD
Need to get rid of the sides if you're using Tech.
The way DeNA intended for us to play this game 
Yeah imma debuff the sides first a little
May i ask for help? i dont have too many water units and struggling on the last 37k points i will post other units if needed
Coz her nuke kills cloyster anyway
Is that Marlon?
Also I never thought I'd be using fucking Marlon at 450 strength 😭
...well, I tried to clear Marlon with Wallace replacing Wake, and I am doing much worse now
...so I am afraid Wake can't replace SS Grims after all
Marlon is underrated when he gives a lot of buffs. Just don't use him as a main tank 
I mean, Nessa and May should be good against Marlon, wouldn’t use a non water type tho
I'd even use the 2nd sync to get rid of a side if it can stop a move
Marlon in utility ubers next update 
I beat Marlon with Nessa, Elio, and SSBlue for 40k points
My problem is my water supports im kind of lacking in that department.
Definitely need to do a mental note to know which side will move next so you can stop them with flinch/sleep
Honestly he is doing amazing as a tank
Thanks to endurance
He survives long enough for me to get going
I guess Endurance build can work at least until sync
Yep that's the plan
May just have to retry for good RNG, IE enemy slams buffs and not attacks
Marlon is extremely nice with elio or an aggravation waterfall spammer
You can try to use Marlon, he’s decent can have endure and can redirect, so he can spread out the damage
It’s good if you know how to use it
Don’t immediately kill the centers and get good RNG
Redirect?
His TM draws aggro
He can force the opponents to target him
I see
You use that part way in to draw pressure from your main tank to squeeze out some extra survivability
Odds are he will die pretty fast after doing so, but such is life
That’s why endure is there
Also compliments Elio by fixing his Sing accuracy
500
500
385
500
450
In that order
I candied 2 units, but you can easily get 300k+ with 1/5
Maybe with 9k points and squeeze 37k at 3x
The only issue is Elio can be hit hard by a stray critical
Just run Troublemaker Lucky Skill
I slightly improved my score to almost 219k
90acc might as well be 50% 
I’ve never had Sing miss with troublemaker
It will fail at the crucial moments and make you hate yourself
Same with Hypnosis
Hypnosis can cap to 100acc with TM1, but not Sing for Elio
You can also try evasion cheese with Misty
Good luck on that. Evasion Strats never work for me
Me neither lol
Me, not running accuracy at all because I just didn't remember because I never missed sing once in 45 mins of tries: 💀
I had first aid 4 in lanas stage tho, very useful 
Mega Kicks? Miss everyone. Freeze Shock? Misses 1/3 of the time. Sing? I always hit
Only Marlon left? I suppose Misty - Marlon - Nessa/May should work
Before Kris had better accuracy
Kris post PB shouldn't be missing Mega Kick
Only marlon left rip
One message removed from a suspended account.
Kris hits now, not hard, but hits
Oh well before power boost og kris might as well not have existed

Old relic of Poma
Flinches
Maybe i can switch misty and Marlon around
One message removed from a suspended account.
Yeah she was ok for ex stages first couple months
You may need to get a good tank for Nessa
PB made her relevant and that's all good
You have to cycle the flinches between sides and mid, and by one cycle's time he should be flinchable again
Shift around teams to accommodate that
Improved on Lana, got 224k pts.
One message removed from a suspended account.
Got a better score on misty but man.... i relied on evasion cheese with starmie.
Team was Mistarmie/VLyra/Aechie

@reef agate trust me, aggravation 1 waterfall can and will carry
Just, accept it's gonna take eons
To get good rng
Between starting rotation and procs
One message removed from a suspended account.
Slightly upped my best
Each battle is huge rng
I think I won't try to better my points for at least 3-4 days
I need me some rest lol
The opponent move like
- Mid
- Left
- Mid
- Right
Rinse and repeat, so you can anticipate and stop their next move with flinch/sleep
I am trying to increase my score and I think I got him on 500 now, Lana still makes me struggle.
Using Lana (the pair) vs Archie is the best way to tank, you can add water guard lucky skill to reduce dmg taken even further. The most important part is to get Archie defense down so you can leech life better.
This only changes with post sync when the center will be hogging the gauge unless immobilised
Yeah got him one 500 now
Lana is ruining my dream of being top 1 rn
If I manage to get 70k on Lana I would be 370k
So 1st or 2nd
I was wondering is this would be enough, don't really know too much about team building for this mode 
It's ridiculous. I wish they never repeat this challenge lmao. No healing + enemy cannot be flinchlocked or sleepchained or whatever. And they come into the stage with +2 accuracy. Even evasion hax ain't safe.
Someone give me 3/5 Hilbert 
Do 100 strength and start experimenting from there
So I can go higher
Ok
Not even CSMM has immunity shield. They sure don't want us to cheese them 
I like the challenge i dont mind it being overtuned, actually gives me something to strive towards thats actually a challenge
Me who casted my Hilbert away atm 
Is grid too necessary for this? Idk how many orbs I have 
...do I really have to replace SS Grims with Wake?
It's ridiculous. Like it's already rng to flinch or sleeplock with someone like Alolan mc (i am bad with names)
But nooo get blocked too
Is there seriously no other alternative?
Grid will matter in higher difficulties
Grid always important, yes but you can get away with it at low strengths
I see
Without it*
I actually really like this lol
Well I still have like 13 days b4 it ends so
doing this challenge made me realised how many units ive used were never actually gridded or had lucky skills active 
I wonder if this is Hilbert's message to me that he's coming now
...god...my Elio is only 1/5...and he's the sole support in my Eusine team... 😦
I rolled sentry entry 1 on hilby with my last cookie for Archie lol
and I don't have any other support I could use there either
I think MAYBE Elio in particular can handle being gridless
1/5 Elio will probably do the job honestly
Since you will be spamming sing anyways
There's some nice stuff in his grid but I never got to it on his team
EX is a big help though
...well, right now, Elio/Eusine/SS Misty can't beat Nessa even with a strength increase of 190 instead of 200
Honestly, I still find it out that DeNA make us train Water pairs to do offtype clears
and I refuse to go lower than 190
I think I can go higher if I EX my OG Kris
EX is always welcome but I don't advise to use it on a unit you will never use again.
I think this is great lol
Man I wished I have an egg Cloyster 
I sadly already use Marlon elsewhere, so that's not an option
and I don't have Holiday Siebold, so that's also not an option
SS Misty can work it you can mpr 3 times 
Wait
No
Not ss Misty
I forget misty has 3 alts
Def is misty only
The psyduck
Ya
Swimsuit Misty
I already used Swimsty, though
How helpful is Burn even versus Nessa? Lessen Burn 8 is still a reduction
so not an option
I mean as someone who's been living on 2 hp, very helpful
Not worth
All my runs end in me living on my bar looking quite empty
That's the usual
Every matches is won by a hair
Was still doing too much at 350 str
If crit happens all what you mentioned is down the drain
Since crit ignores all dmg reduction
And defenses
Hence why you need vigilance on your tanks
Dang i was sooo close
Yeah without vigi it's too rng
Razor shell crits a lot
Lost a ton of matches because+6 def elio kept dying by random crits
By icicle crash
Or bite
Or whatever
100% hp to 0%
Idk if the burn attack reduction really helps, but I know burn damage does lol
Then there's Elio who is forced to get TM1. Hope PB will fix him
And the funny part is tm1 doesn't even make his sing 100% accurate
I actually think trap was doing more with Wallace LOL
the burn does like negligible dmg
i only wanted the burn for multiplier from my Lyss sync
Wallace helped me deal with Hoenn Extreme Battles, put some respect on his name
That's what I'm doing
His trap was doing more
Than burn
Same here. I couldn't get May to help myself
Plus recup 2 + sterner stuff 2 is not bad
For this challenge
I ended up discarding him
But he wasn't doing badly
Sing can be used to delay the opponent somewhat. Be prepare to micro though
Sing is guaranteed, costs 1 gauge+ propelling move 5, and can be spammed for fast sync cd against slowed enemies
ngl Lana helped me tank alot of abuse from +400str Nessa
I wish I had more than 1/5 Lana
(altho i still need rng on Misty's TM MPR refresh for evasion
Why did they make wide guard 1 MP...
Lana is a solid tank in this event thanks to Team Water Guard
Yeah, my Archie team, Rosa can be exchanged for Siebold and I can put in more strength
If it was 2 MP Lana would've been absolutely busted for this event
in case Nessa decide violence and spam EQ at every chance given
I just need another CS week to EX Kris
And a much better support in general
But I seriously would've loved KriSS for Misty 
Yeah SS kris is easily best support for misty
Why does Johtrio shaft me last year?
I used SS Kris on Nessa lol
Could've prolly had a higher score when you put her against Misty
Potion spam gets eggmon gyarados past sync
I used SSKris for Marlon lol 
I will probably change my mind if I get shunted but at 1,600 I will probably stick for the time being
Or I can use 16 PU tickets and 4 exchange PU tickets to EX Kris
If I get Irida to Lv. 90
There's no rush
Lana 420, never do again 
It lasts 2 weeks
Yeah my priority when I'll try raising my points will be moving Lana from that team elsewhere and increase str a bit
SS kris + swampert is just too good
Lana was overkill
I'm currently at 2746
I got two 39-40k, then two 60-65 and a 77k 
How do I fix this pls
Why does CCalem have to be dark 
Lana fked my score
Fix what
I swear I'm never ever resetting that Marlon stage
You're giving her rain?
Mhmh
So sync with misty duck first time
Tbh I would use Archie for misty too
Two healing pairs in the stage with no heal
Potion units in the no heal stage
Lyra doesn't HEAL
Well psyduck is all about potion so he's definitely misplaced
I'd probably swap Nessa team with Lana?
Would that work
Do you refresh rain before enemy sync?
Yes
Without that it should be survivable
Just let rain run out then get it back after enemy sync
SS Blue can be regridded without the heals so he can grab all defensive utilities
Like, at least it's better than a duck with no potions
My lineup
#1128052735967764621 message
I just went full offense on Lana since no healing
I had to change my Blastoise grid for the first time in 3 years. It felt blasphemous

added to da list
Lana sure pranked us all with this no healing thing 
Yeah the fact I had to go with chop for lana
Says a lot
I genuinely couldn't find a working water pair I hadn't used elsewhere
She's an absolute ||rude word||
I love bulky supports, but these events are so anti fun and anti control!
I love how everyone just consistently performs bad with Lana
Mega Blastoise putting every last bit of his bulk and "endurance" to the test
Man Lana ruins everything
Finnaly got it thanks guys
Can you guess which one is not like the rest?
Honestly, I thought it was super interesting as a fight parameter.
But her fight should have also had higher base defenses and lower attack, to compensate.
Damn 60-70k
Damn... That's insane
I'm happy doing 40-60k
Its all coming together though
Lana positioned 3rd in the lineup
She's the Champion
Truer words haven't been spoken
Well, I tried to avoid using Sing because of the status conditions nullifier...
Which is why I asked
Sing works exactly once on Lana
Can't wait to see whatever bullshit they're gonna bring in the nest High score
No special damage for grass? No stat drop for psychic?
Can't change wheater for fire?

Wdym once
I get a 'X cannot fall asleep' message after
Yeah it's on every stage
Resilience
Is that a new effect?
Nah
no some ebe has it too
It's been in extreme battles for a long while
It's why EBEs are rough
I haven't cheesed anything in a long time
First time in a long time having to take out 'No Status Condition' this week for CS too
But I feel like for this event resilience on both mid and sides is too much
Poison was terrible
...Lana?
Elio is the support of the team that is fighting Nessa
Resilience on mid, resistance 8-9 on sides would've been better
not Lana
this was a pretty gimped team to bring against lana tbh
Yeah idk who even is the striker lol
The funny rainbow fish
dropped ~140 ranks in 24 hours, I should be good 
What would you change up?
"Oh hey I'm 198th, I should screenshot"
Checks top 10 first
"And now I'm 201th"
Bring more offence if possible for lana
All my best offense is there in that image
I was 199 yesterday.
Today I'm like 470
Unless we're counting lodge pairs
Maybe I should bring Silver's water friend
Was it Feraligatr
i think 250k+ is pretty safe for medal, you might drop a lot but enough to be in the top
Yeah, probably fine
I used dual Feraligatr on Lana
It was good enough
Kinda surprised my Misty clear was that low
Expected her to be the easy one
Interesting, who was the support
Going even higher? 
Blastoise is the only support bulky enough lol.
And I got Wise Entry 2 in Blastoise grid, so nice.
I can't imagine changing up my grid for this lol
Changing grids is free
Absolute lies.
Its a time investment
I had to give Egg Blastoise "water guard" as a lucky skill.
Then I gave Volcanion a candy for his burn multipliers and water guard.
Swapped Bluninja grid to gain flabbergast for a confuse bonus.
But Blastoise needed a full new grid.
Gonna be worth it for the rank screenshot
i burned almost 4 for my first clear
I now wanna try getting 290k
Hope it won't take long
my condolences
i decided to check in here for tips first so that probably saved time
also set my expectations straight to go for 250k early
well now that's just foolhardy
What's worse, labbing out on day one or prepping for 4-6 days like some other people here 
zero sum game
I didn't set teams up ahead of time
But I made notes. Like to remove Misty's hail, and use no strikers against Marlon. And only phys on Archie
everyone in this thread has lost
yeah, just the basic checks i do for CS or LG
bit more since i came in here seeing everyone crying about lana so i could come prepared to just lower her difficulty a whole bunch
Unless I suddenly get dropped out of 10000, I'm content with my point at the moment
Same.
My goal was 180k. Then 250k for an average of 50k per fight.
I'm at 275. That's good enough. I don't like rng
Well, they'll improve their score everyday so yeah
some people will
I keep forcing myself to redo battles and improve my score
I'm not sure 9000 people will
That assume 10000 players would do that 
Yeah honestly
Its like a marathon. If you stop running, you're not going to start again.
Most already bailed out at 180k
Less people climbing on first days-> the less ranks slide -> the less people will farm later on because they're confident
Its ok. At least its not Prestige.
Can't wait to have another unobtainable medal on my profile
The score to get the medal is 250k, right?
Nope
Its mostly an educated guess
It’s just that you have to be in the rank
The top 10,000 players get the medal
I guess i won't get it, then
I basically only farmed stamina for prestige on day 1 and 5, I still got top 1200 with 1/5 Gloria
I'm having a hard time getting to 180k points lel
How many points do you have?
What was the cutoff for Gloria? 1200?
what's 180k rank atm
Twice so far
My 1/5 Gloria carried enough with optimal clears and 2 days of bought stamina
I am trying to optimize my other stages so I can put everything vs Lana 😂😂😂😂
I've included the rank floors in my pinned post. But if people have pics of what the point floor is for Rank 500 and Rank 10,000.
That'd be helpful.
she worked well for about a year so I'm happy
She's amazing now
I don't know if I want to give her another candy lol
Dc9, cs4, haymaker
356250
Now
If anyone has tips for Lana let me know

I guess I don't have any other strong Steel strikers
wow how?
I'm afraid about next types
Marlon is easy to do. I am betting i can make him 85k
Was hard enough to get 252k and people get 350
I'm pretty sure Jo has eusine, dojo glo, cerena, SS kris and Archie
I want fire next
What team for him?
I do, my first clear (290k) didn't have 2 of those mentioned above
I have most of those except Eusine
If my cserena was 3/5 I bet I could've made 85-87k marlon
Nessa Cerena and Ssblue currently, I plan to change things though
Then you should be fine
My Cerena only 2
Mine is 1
Don't have any of those lel
This is super good
Since kris 5/5 i used her in almost any water stage and never felt the need to pull other water pairs i didn't care about
I had to get basically the best rng from start to finish tho
OG kris with updated grid is slept on
That's how I am planning to get 85k
she isnt
If I got that it would've been 80k
Isn't what?
how do you not die with so much strength 
Og kris is known for being almost MF tier for nuke
shes not slept on
I don't see her around often
Unless it's an event like this one
Rng dodges and praying for pot and TM/xdef all refreshes
As in she's not the go to
yeah because almost everyone has better options?
shes not slept on because you dont see her often thats just faulty logic
Water has a lot of pairs
What is to you the definition of slept on? 👀
I legit forgot to use brutal swing on cerena because debuffing defences and offences with chances of acc and Eva drops too is just better than rolling for extra rng confusion and such
Evasion hax or death
Yea
I can only get to 9K on CS, so 160K points should be my goal this time
@cunning shore what's your hit counts on her stage
Just gotta strategise a lot
The medal seems to imply we will have many of these events 
Max points

This is painful
If it rotates once per 3 month, just wait 4.5 years for last type event
if we have many you only need the medal once then we can just do rewards
I’m interested only in Dark and Normal type
This.
I think we will not have a good time with any other type
basically understated even within people who understand the game better than most
Already max points though
Ι was barely able to scrap by 182k. That's enough for this event.
What I meant though by slept on I meant not popular or not used enough. People who understand the game know the uses of even the worst of units
so one should ignore time and focus on hits/stats?
Yeah time is too low
About to try 600 strength so might exceed your number 👀
kris is used a lot though
As a factor
Good luck lol
That's my strat
Max time points are under 1min
again people just typically gravitate to the potentially stronger options they have
The grind never stops for you huh Jo
ok was more worried about time than anything else lol
Misty: 580
Marlon: 500
Lana: 420
Nessa: 300
Archie: 370
Maybe EX support Unit will get more point but i dont like it
It is a maybe
Time is basically irrelevant

You're gaining 2.5k x3 while setting power to basically 0, which means losing 10-15-18k*3
probably thinking it because the last ones usually focused on time
Should I use exclusively water type pairs for this one?
it’ll be easier if you can
It's encouraged to do that
Yea
If water supports are shit, I'd hate to check on other type supports 
besides Psyduck we don't have much F2P
gen pool supports
If you lack water limiteds, try doing 2 waters + 1 ontype/op support
hilbert is like the only great one the rest are more so geared for other content
I mean not general, Starmie is average
at least make it guaranteed
Let's not forget the enemies have resilience!
Not rly, 180k is possible even with 2water+1offtype
Yeah I ran debuff elio
How did that Lana team work
I suffered hours and hours
general has alright pairs
In endgame having last Mon with -2/3 speed goes a long way
Outside of exception like Sonia, is there even a good support in spotlight?
aaron
Shauna?
Leaf
Most spotlight supports are good tbh
the problem with gen supports is that they are absolutely allergic to having special attack buffs and crit
I think many complain about Shauna being clunky
Here my friend 
God I wish I wasn't a coward
And candied dojoglo
A year ago
At this point it's a running gag that I'll reach EoS with her 1/5
I'm tempted to double candy inteleon lol
Usual high level clear = Just get lucky + huge micro effort
Yeah no don't
It's not about getting lucky
It's about resetting 3-5 mins to get a good starting rotation and then roll RNG in lategame
Let's be real now. If you're not lucky, eat aoe back to back. Not lucky? Get flinched/statused. Not lucky? Opponents dodging everything with +1 evasion
Sometimes it takes an hour to get there to just get crit by some bullshit
I see it in reverse
You're basically grinding odsa
Odds
At the end I would have went for iron head and hope for flinch, this is what this stage has done to my brain.
Eventually you HAVE to get the good run
I am scared to reset and end up with a worse score 
That's just RNG for good rolls. Same thing 
Reset 1 or 2 stages at a time
Yeah but it takes more than just rolling dices
"If I repeat the same pattern over multiple runs, one time it will be effective"
You gotta lab everything out
That's what I do, specially if I want to switch pairs
Beforehand
I do then Marlon did bad 👎 had to fix it
I didn't say that teambuilding is not important, but saying no need to RNG is not true at all
Even with sleep strat, you need to rng so they queue up moves instead of TM if you want to "eat" their turns
So I don't think
- labbing a team
- labbing a starting rotation
- labbing kill order for lategame
- understanding what is enough RNG to win or to lose
- switching it up if it's not working enough
Yeah, i test this team a lot so i know it will KO

Against some stages yeah you need big luck tho
Anyway, was I...supposed to use Sing as Elio in the Nessa battle?
Especially if aiming for 500+ str
Without a set pattern of actions like LG, this mode is still a RNGfest for me
I really hope not
If he's your only support left, it's inevitable
...he sadly is
Me, not getting a single aggravation 1+1 waterfall flinch in 32 minutes Vs Archie getting 9 non aggravation flinches in the same timespan: 💀
I already use both Hilbert and Marlon on Lana and I use SS Blue on Marlon
I actually started counting the time after 10 mins but I just kept getting no flinches
For half an hour
Doable with 250str?
It's the usual lategame even in mainline. AI will proc things more often
SS kris seems a bit of a weird choice
Stage is mostly Phys
- no heals
...then again, neither my Vs Marlon team nor my Vs. Lana team are successful either
So maybe I am just doing something fundamentally wrong with my team building
At least Rain won't allow Lana to hit you harder with her sync
Sure but I think egg gyara/blastoise + a Phys support/starmie for RNG dodges is better Vs lana
But yeah, no Mini Potion does hurt
I can't tell if it's sarcasm or an actual passive 
How do you get Barry's speed drops to proc? On a roll 4 has not given me ANY speed drops whatsoever
That's because Lana has Ice sync
Gettin a bit pissy over this
Pick a god and pray
Do it a couple more times 
Use Lodge Adaman with him, he has on a rofl 4 too 
On a roll 8 in team
/s
ON A ROFL
You think this was bad? Try using Koga Poison Fang for 5 times and not a single Poison 
Eusine can flinch?!!
Bruh
You didn't read the 50 paragraphs
Under your buddy move?
His B Move can flinch
Smh

Ye
Thoughts?
How much hp did the team have at the ebd
Eusine had a good amount of hp,sskris died,misty had very high hp
Kid named archie
Are there any non water tech damagers who are good for marlon
May kinda sucks without ex or teamates
Can use Red and Pikachu
on marlon?
If your rat is 3/5 it's better than most grass options
Yes
I didnt get rats
Yeah cserena is the best pair for marlon
I despise the rats so much
maybe its cuz i had ss acerola
Yeah, adaman should be best choice for offtype marlon
I got only the good rat
what strength are you playing this at?
250
250 is free
For 250 SS Erika should be very easy
Good?
You ain't getting point like that tho
Change Morty for water type
?
Like MC water Eggmon with confuse
bro just evolve hilbert 💀
No
no Samurott 😅
Based
Why is it not a Samurott?
confuse isnt needed if you’re just going for 180k
No no based
Same reason my Selene is still a rowlet
Based Dewitt enjoyer
@onyx crystal
Switched some teams? My brain is dead. I don't think I can outdo it for a bit - trying but less score atm 👀
500
550
390
535
500
6th again c:
Dewott
The evolutions don't look as good
well in selene’s case thats just hurting her damage
But it's 30 less gems you'll get
cuz shes not getting sync tiles or restrain multiplier
If this is the competition I'm going up against to get the 4* badge I'm dying
I'd wager you RNG the hell out of Swimsuit Misty TM? I can't imagine Archie surviving without +6 SpDef
Anyway, @sleek crystal your points get multiplied per your number of water pairs, so 1 water pair is absolutely irrelevant
That is correct
Yeah so Hilbert Lana sserika should work right
Last pvp event, I went to sleep on the top club
Woke up barely outside of it and I will not let it happen again xD
Double mpr3 proc 
Having 1 water pair is the same as having none
Basically yes
Just get lucky
This works right
Triple*
I was far in the top ranks 
Since archie gets -2
Give Marlon 150 lvl
didn't you have Zacian back then?
I only had Gloria at the final spur and was only 2/5 as well
Bad days.
💀🗿 ☠️
And also good Potion MPR because Misty herself cannot take much hit
mine was also 2/5 when looking at screenshots
No, he's good as he is
Genuine question, did anyone do any stage on 600 str?
Another small improvement, in the top 1500 now
I think if you up your cserena to 3/5 you could do Marlon at 600
Misty with SST Red 600 is possible
Thanks updated your ranking. The points are rising awfully quick.
I am doing CSerena on Lana
Why do that, when you can do 400 with 3 water
Pure water type i meant
Sst red probably can do even more than 600
That’s ez
right now my max is 350 
Can I share my teams here?
I try like more than 50 time with Misty
But she just hit and freeze so much i drop to 580

Hmm currently trying with Marlon but I need evade hax
How does sserika take out the sides after killing Marlon
Even Para right Before my Unit sync
Misty is a bundle of joy that way 
Misty : No status and interference for me, but all for you!
I like my placement

Like is it even possible
You're supposed to kill or at least whittle down the sides before you remove the center
Yeah that why i try Dodge team wirh OG Mosty and OG May
That's how DeNA intended the game to be played
Marlon beats down the team fast
Sync itself kills Lana
Hilbert and sserika won't stand for much longer
It's not easy mode, that's for sure
those freezes and and flinches are the absolute worst
1000 str Glacia pls
Misty 600 str need 3 May Sync Crit with EX support to die, a lot of hit from May. Even my OG Misty has Weather Warriors 3 just to do enough

I hope they don't do this kind of event for one of the rarer types like fairy
Can any of my techs beat down STR250 Marlon alongside two water supports
Gladion if support buffs crit
Hilbert
Erika SS best choice btw
The most I would give them is Psychic or Grass next
Anything else is off-limit
Oh wait Barry is strike
how are you setting up barry with that team
Poor barry would be nuked instead 
and yeah hes doing 0 damage
Barry with multiple -6 debuffs : Guess I'll just faint
Better?
Should Nessa nuke or may
Nah Marlon's liquidation will blast me
Yes
Marlon melts tankd
So ssacynthua is best option
All the stages melt tanks but at varied degree 
Nessa spamming EQ to crush your spirit
Endure is clutch
@onyx crystal Could you add my score to the pin? Currently at rank 52 as of this message.
Misty: 535
Marlon: 400
Lana: 305
Nessa: 360
Archie: 360
@onyx crystal #1011234431291359302 message is this ok
is it just me or is archie the easiest
Is marlon sleepable
yes
yes
He is
Archie : Be happy I don't put out my Kyogre
First try for 700 but 0 dodges by Cerena kekw
And 1/5 SS-Kris ;C
Maybe I should try putting SS Kris against Misty. She's free anyway
So I got Rosa and Dewott earlier if that helps in any way
I thank him for choosing a bug weak physical water type.
Araquanid ate that fish up!
Which water types have more than one move type?
archie, summer gloria, dojo gloria, swampert, araquanid, volcanion
Glojo
That's a very expensive team thoughhh
I suppose Eusine counts but Ice is not doing much here
wallace due to mirror coat 
Did Marlon on 600 though
@onyx crystal sorry for lying to you, I upgraded 🙈
500
600
390
535
500
In that order
I wanted to see if there is anyone crazy enough to make Wallace work here 
How the hell do you beat marlon
SIR, YOU NEED TO GO OUTSIDE
Don't give rain to enemies that get more from it than you do
Damn, the score just keeps getting higher. But I ain't still not gonna do more 
can you append strength values to this post
Funnily enough I am outside on grass too 
I will edit it in now
