Who should she be used with? I've beaten Lana before but trying to best my score lol

onyx crystal
#

Lana is tough, so many opt for flinch stagger. One of the top submitters here has Glojo + C.Wake + Hilbert

rough forum

@onyx crystal

Misty 550
Marlon 550
Lana 400
Nessa 300
Archie 430

Top 60! Finally got chop out of the way and got a full 15 waters

#

The pair micromanagement sent me in orbit

#

This time I think I'm actually done

#

No sub 50k shameful clear, got Lana to 63k with 1/5 dojoglo, redid archie with the weirdest elio grid

#

Least clutch w

#

Marlon + trip up 4 sparkling aria

#

Gave me the W

#

Got 2 mega kicks instead of one at the end

Never used Marlon until this event

Wow Hilbert just cant survive again Lana at 520

I mean this is simplier than making 150+ LG teams.

If you're comparing it solo solos, then similar amount of rng resetting.

I don't do either I hate rng farming

Yeah, but solos are in number more than 5

i wouldn't compare to solos, you don't have to solo to get a good streak

Rechecked the stage buffs.

  • VS Misty, Wailren has +2 accu_up Accuracy on Entry (Blizzard spammer)
  • VS Marlon, post sync he uses X Evasion All for + 2 EVA_UP Evasion
  • VS Lana, Sides give team +1 DEF_UP Defense if they attack successfully. Entire team enters with +2 ACC_UP.
  • VS Nessa, with both sides giving X Speed All. +4 Speed SPE_UP (Bad for Cakewalk)
  • VS Archie, post sync he gains +1 ATK_UP Attack from fanfare.

Every stage features a unit having access to at least 1 use of: X Attack All, X Defense All, X Sp.Def All, X Sp. Def All, X Speed All.

In my runs I get forced to use TM

To do a sync in time

While in Pykuo's video 0 TMs from Gojo

So it's bit lots of RNG and lots of Micro

I budgeted very well

I didn't use her TM with my team

I just gave up

I can't physically get more than 335-340k

There's only so much optimization and RNG I can do without throwing away candies or gems

i mean, you need the pairs and the RNG. i have most pairs but unless i get ss lysandre (maybe throw two or three more dailies) there's no point retrying for me

rough forum

Same for me

I got the rng already

#

I could maybe squeeze a 20-30 point increase

On maybe misty or Marlon

And especially get confusion on Marlon

Just get lucky WEEZing

But it would mean farming so fucking hard I doubt it would feel worth

3 potion MPR and so many misses from carracosta

If you use 15 water-types it should be within reach to get 180k points for all the rewards.

Are all of these pairs gridded?

Main DPS:

  • Kris
  • Grimsley
  • Serena
  • May (Swampert)
  • Nessa
  • Archie

Secondary DPS:

  • SS Misty (Nuke)
  • Barry (Nuke)
  • May (Wailmer)
  • Crasher Wake (Flinch)
  • Rosa (Nuke + DPS)
  • Silver (Flinch)
#

Typing up some recommendations.

Oh I have a couple that aren't gridded I missed. But I can grid them if I need to. They are Nessa, Grimsley, Marlon, Siebold, Lodge May, Lodge Adaman, and Lodge Silver.

bold pond
#

Uh I clearly don't have those

onyx crystal
# bold pond These are my water pairs

Here's a recommendation:
VS Misty: Archie, May (Wailmer) or Barry, ssKris
VS Marlon: Nessa/Serena, Rosa/Crasher Wake/Elio, SS Blue
VS Lana: Nessa/Serena, Rosa/Crasher Wake/Elio, Hilbert
VS Nessa: May (Swampert), Rosa/Crasher Wake/Elio, Adaman
VS Archie: Kris, Rosa/C.Wake/Elio, Lana

Elio & C.Wake are there to stagger queues. You'll use Rosa as a secondary dps.

When you Pokémon is one of the strongest physical attackers and it hits like a wet sponge

THATS WHY HE SUCKS

i think the issue is that you're banking on his evasion

and not the thing he's meant to do

lone trout

What is he meant to do

I would love him to do damage, as that’s the main thing I want him to do

If he did enough damage, he wouldn’t have to dodge because the tanks would be alive still

Yeah, bumping everything to around 10000 should allow you to get the 180k

Just 460str

I dont have EX Lana so cant go further

onyx crystal
# bold pond One of these fish?

Well I wouldn't want you to spend resources raising one unless you are comfortable doing flinch staggers.
Do you know how to properly queue moves when the enemy flinches?

chilly flame
#

Damn I already use my techdos

#

Maybe I could get away with using wake

haughty haven
#

Yeah

chilly flame
#

But no rain grief

bold pond
haughty haven
#

But Tech Gyara good rain too

#

But must good timing

onyx crystal
# bold pond Kinda, I have used it a bit with Celebi

Were you using Crasher Wake anywhere?
Flinching with Celebi is also very different, when Celebi causes the enemy to flinch it gives you enough time to queue again, but that's not the case with regular flinch.

haughty haven
#

Or Archie will just destroy you

chilly flame
#

Then again I do have Lana ex

#

So sync with her first and then kris nuke right

haughty haven
#

Yes

bold pond
#

Looks like I used him in Lana.

haughty haven
#

In Video first Sync just to get crit and chip side

bold pond
#

But Lana is easy with Greninja.

haughty haven
#

Second and third is with Rain to nuke

onyx crystal
#

Like you want to delay the enemy's moves as much as possible.

bold pond
#

Flinch, yes. Sing not so much, may kinda killed nessa before I even finished using all the stat increases on elio.

#

But she was kinda easy I haven't done nessa really hard yet.

rain sierra
#

Nessa at higher difficulty hits hard

onyx crystal
#

If you watch Pykuo's video: #1128052735967764621 message
You can see how the queue works with flinch.
Notice how they queue with Waterfall as the last move of the turn, then after a flinch is successful, they don't immediately queue with Gyarados again? They wait to use Waterfall on the next target.

rain sierra
#

Razor Shell can take a chomp out of your tank before they buff themselves properly

stray dust
#

Nessa has no rules but man her own rule is she hits hard

rain sierra
#

And don't get me started on EQ

stray dust
rain sierra
#

Me : Oh, this run seems smooth enough
Nessa : Really? Let me crank it up for you (Spams four EQ back to back)

onyx crystal
#

The flincher/sleeper does not immediately queue again after inflicting a stagger. It waits until the next round of moves.

rain sierra
#

Keep in mind that only works if they queue up attack moves

#

TM moves won't be removed if flinched

#

So yeah, that's a RNG too

onyx crystal
#

Yes, unfortunately it requires resetting.

bold pond
#

Oh yeah that makes sense

haughty haven
#

Enemy use TM: Smash Reset buttonSophoKEK

bold pond
#

Well I did Lana at the same strength, 150, and I got 41k points.

onyx crystal
#

At the lower difficulty it may not be necessary to perform a flinch every single time to beat the stage. (At the super high levels, it is)

simple furnace
#

Nessa stage i resetted so many times until I get Misty's evasion TM buff to refresh like mad WEEZing

#

just to deal with the annoying EQ if she spams it back to back

if you need more moves/turns to take down the opponent sides u might need supports that can buff your tank's defense/spdef stats as well instead of units that can confuse the opponents

Is it better to always have 3 water pairs than to have 2 water pairs + 1 super OP pair and going for higher difficulty?

Because my water pairs kinda suck

do you aim for highest point possible or just 180k rewards?

it kinda depends, cos if your OP pair can take down a much higher difficulty than your team of 3 water pairs, then yes

200k is minimal to join top 10k now

How it Started vs How it's going.

Just as a motivational message for everyone who's still struggling, you can achieve more than you think you can, Most of these limited units are just 1/5. it's only if you're willing to put the time and effort to suffer through the pain and sweat and possibly Mental abuse of this mode. we're all rooting for you, and always ask us if you need some inspiration/venting from this mode.

my team was SSBlue/LySSandre/Barry

When using flinch, it moves to right

Then octillery just uses hydropump which is more bearable

"more bearable"

haughty haven

Because is always mid-left-mid-right-mid-left and on and on

Better than muddy water sweep

Also if I flinch it goes right hydro pump and then left water fall instead of muddy water

What team can i improve... I already used all my water support

outer whale

well that's the thing..... it's that pattern until sync, then stays middle, but it never moved to right.... so you'd ASSUME it will go to right, like CS..... but it goes LEFT????

If Before Sync left mon do something

outer whale

this was after

for example

#

Mid > right > mid > left > Mid > Mid > sync > mid until death > *left

but if you flinch, it goes right

so..... wtf?

They just go random after first flinch

it's ruined a good bit of my runs because it throws me for a loop
