High Score

[late basalt]

Who do you have left

To use

[tranquil blaze]

I'm using this sohttps://youtu.be/ywWEaXHPUoY

THIS IS SO UNFAIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[late basalt]

Do you have any limited units

Also are you using razor shell or jaw lock

[tranquil blaze]

Jaw lock first then rock shash until 6 -speed then razor shell

[late basalt]

I've found that jaw lock does the most damage for me

I might be using her wrong but

[tranquil blaze]

All my water units, og misty, grimsley and May are used

[tranquil blaze]

She needs -speed on her opponents for her sync to work

[late basalt]

Oh

Then yeah I'm using her wrong

[tranquil blaze]

Broooo this so frustrating

[true sparrow]

no, you shouldn'd try to debuff speed, you're losing all your dps trying to debuff speed while you could just be using Razor Shell to debuff everyone's def for you nuke and doing good dmg

if you don't have a 2nd unit that will help you debuff speed with nessa, don't go for cakewalk

[tranquil blaze]

I am literally following a video sooo

[late basalt]

The free unit videos are usually pretty heavily reliant on rng and advanced battle manipulation like quad queue and flinch abuse

Do you have any limited water units

[tranquil blaze]

^^^^ @late basalt

[late basalt]

Why not use lyra

Her ability debuffs speed

Whats the PC unit you're using

[tranquil blaze]

PC?

[mortal timber]

Here to remind to ex your Barry!
Improved misty!

Misty: 634 strength
Marlon: 400 strength
Lana: 440 strength
Nessa: 564 strength
Archie: 580 strength

@onyx crystal

[late basalt]

Player character

The egg unit

Is it gyarados

[tranquil blaze]

I've never heard mc ever be referred to as PC but he's it's gyarados

[late basalt]

Mc is just main character but in this event you get a bonus if you use any main character so I figured it might be confusing

What role is it

[tranquil blaze]

Tech

[main pulsar]

Low high score

I aspire to be like a 300k

[late basalt]

Why use the mc over crasher wake

[tranquil blaze]

Aggravation 2, crasher like NEVER flinches, mc does like all the time

[keen lichen]

I'm outta do my high score

Hope to get around 300-350k

[balmy yarrow]

I’m Master 541 w/306,747

Is there a cutoff?

[late basalt]

Is wake gridded for flinch

He can also confuse which gives you 1000 bonus points

[tranquil blaze]

Yes and he doesn’t flinch 95% of the time and confusing also barely doesn’t work

[rancid perch]

80k with 2/5 lyssandre

[mortal timber]

my "opus magnus" haha

a run that stands because of a side self hitting due to confusion

[rancid perch]

I don't think I'd go that far but I could try out like 550 or so now that I've freed up gyarados

[long oyster]

@onyx crystal

Str :
Misty 500
Marlon 700
Lana 350
Nessa 600
Archie 500

I think Nessa 700 would be possible with a rain setter with mpr and flinch

[mortal timber]

i believe in you

[rancid perch]

[tranquil blaze]

WHY IS NO TEAM I DO WORK

[sullen pier]

that team doesnt have a proper tank

[tranquil blaze]

Nothing I do works against marlon, I’ve tried nessa/mc/hilbert, nessa/crasher/hilbert, nessa/mc/psymisty and nothing is working

[sullen pier]

how much strengths are you trying?

[tranquil blaze]

150, I’m just trying to get all the rewards

[late basalt]

I meant replace mc with lyra

[sullen pier]

Nessa takes many turns to setup, not counting the turns she clicks TM if no offensive support

[late basalt]

Keep the support

[sullen pier]

Swimsuit Misty, Lyra and Nessa

is this the last stage?

[late basalt]

The rain should help razor shell and the speed debuff should be much better than using rock tomb x6

[sullen pier]

note that rain benefits Marlon too

[late basalt]

Just be careful with rain around Marlon's sync move

Yeah

[tranquil blaze]

I’m doing marlon 2nd

[late basalt]

You basically need a support on these if you're trying for points

[sullen pier]

do you have other dmg dealers than Nessa?

especially tech

[tranquil blaze]

All water types may, og Misty and grimsley are used

Yippe but at the same time I’m not sure if I’m gonna be able to get all the rewards

Is this a good team for Lana? Elio will be EXed if I used this team but I don’t want to waste EX items on Eilo if he’s not useful for this bc I don’t use eilo a lot

[atomic rain]

setting up his multipliers is probably not happening

also i would really not use elio here

[tranquil blaze]

I’m following a video but if Elio is not good here who can I use? May, og misty, grimsley, nessa, psymisty and Lyra have been used

[sturdy glen]

@onyx crystal
660 / 640 / 355 / 450 / 470

[atomic rain]

use nessa instead of tech blastoise if you’re syncing with barry

and i guess if you are using elio here try to sleep deny anything dangerous like icicle crash or razor shell

[tranquil blaze]

I literally said nessa had been used 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

[atomic rain]

ok who have you done already

[tranquil blaze]

Misty and marlon, Misty I used may/grimsley/og misty, marlon I used nessa/Lyra/psymisty

[atomic rain]

try using lyra here cuz she has a lot of debuffs

but watch out for the rain caller as razor shell will probably ko anyone if it hits

[tranquil blaze]

I’ve used lyra

[atomic rain]

i would just reset

because you’ve used too many of your strong units here

like im trying but its not working

[tranquil blaze]

no, I’ve struggled with marlon I’m not resetting

[atomic rain]

lodge rosa against nessa may work

but x def all will make insult to injury more annoying to set up

[keen lichen]

I literally don't know what to do at this point

Can't beat any team at 15k+ points

Should I use all water

[tranquil blaze]

I’m not battling nessa?????????

[keen lichen]

Or switch one out

[atomic rain]

you are encouraged to use 3 waters

[atomic rain]

she works for all 3 i mean

maybe lana would be the best use since she has defense multipliers

[keen lichen]

Don't got a lot of waters 🥲

[atomic rain]

thats more than me

anyway

i can show you mine

[keen lichen]

If you could show me what you used that would be great

[atomic rain]

may and archie shouldnt be on the same team

and ss steven can be ss lysandre

[tranquil blaze]

Who could I use instead of SS blue for Lana bc I literally have kris and hilbert

[atomic rain]

lodge rosa

to debuff defense to disable her multipliers

shes also a good dps once insult to injury is set up

[tranquil blaze]

Or should I stick with Barry bc my kris isn’t EXed? (+ the video I watched used kris against someone else)

[atomic rain]

striker ex in this event is very helpful as sides are very dangerous once mid is ko’d

dont feel pressured to ex people thougu

just try it out on your own

[tranquil blaze]

I know but the video I watched used kris in a video stage so I probably shouldn’t use kris against Lana

So I’m using Barry and who else would be good? (without me needed to reset a stage)

[atomic rain]

well you have no one to debuff speed

which is pretty annoying

[main pulsar]

What is the

Tech gyra

[atomic rain]

try using ss misty against lana

[main pulsar]

What it do

[atomic rain]

60% flinch and rain dance

[main pulsar]

He has rain dance?

Did I just never get him

[long oyster]

Yup

[main pulsar]

[tranquil blaze]

Marlon????? He can do -speed

[main pulsar]

Cuz I filtered for rain

[atomic rain]

eugh

id rather not

[main pulsar]

I didn’t see a tech magi

Much depression

[atomic rain]

unless you’re trying high strength

[main pulsar]

Also elio is ok

Not amazing at the job but

It works

[atomic rain]

pretty sure magikarp has splash in place of the rain dance slot

[main pulsar]

O

[atomic rain]

you need to evolve it first

[main pulsar]

Then there is a chance

[long oyster]

Are you going for rewards only @tranquil blaze

[tranquil blaze]

@long oyster yes

[long oyster]

Then you can probably afford to off-type 1 unit

Because Lana is a bully

[main pulsar]

Does a rain gyara help here

Idk who to replace even if I have

[long oyster]

There is some refactoring to do here

[main pulsar]

How so

[long oyster]

Lana + Hilbert with Kris is overkill

She maxes her own crit and atk

Lana will be enough against Archie

[main pulsar]

I was only barely able to clear

[long oyster]

Did you have a defense debuffer or a flincher

[main pulsar]

I think hilbert flinched one time

[long oyster]

Btw we all barely clear the fights
They're just that hard

[main pulsar]

Ye idk if overkill is what I mean

[long oyster]

What I mean is using both together is a waste on Kris

Hilbert alone on Kris is a waste imo

[main pulsar]

+3 crit on Lana helped

If no hilbert then who

[long oyster]

Crasher Wake

[main pulsar]

Wot

[long oyster]

He has aggravation 1 twice

[main pulsar]

That’s it?

[long oyster]

Well yeah

With enough denial you get pretty high

[main pulsar]

Hm

[long oyster]

And EXes

He also has confusion

[main pulsar]

Mk

I can try

[long oyster]

I also used SS Lys for Nessa but according to this chat it's all a preference

[main pulsar]

Idk how to kill lana otherwise

[long oyster]

She's really hard so I decided to neglect her and push everyone else

[atomic rain]

funnily enough

i tortured myself and did like

300 on lana

and then i was like fuck that so i did everyone else at like 200

[long oyster]

I would hate this event if I started with Lana

[atomic rain]

i hate myself too

i was like i wanna get the hard stuff out of the way

then everything was hard

💀

[long oyster]

[tranquil blaze]

Is this a good team for nessa?

[long oyster]

Why is siebold tanking

[tranquil blaze]

He ain’t, i just forgot to change stuff

[true sparrow]

It's not

[tranquil blaze]

Okay then any suggestions????

[true sparrow]

what do you have available

[atomic rain]

siebold is reliant on being on type so he is not a good option for this event

[tranquil blaze]

May/og misty/grimsley used nessa/lyra/psymisty used and Elio used

[keen lichen]

@main pulsar what did you do for misty I'm going to copy your team

I assume you tried to max out evasion and lower accuracy right?

[main pulsar]

What did I do? Yeah that’s about it but seriously

Don’t do my team

Just don’t

It’s not

It’s like self induced torture

[true sparrow]

how do you have 7 of your units used

[keen lichen]

Idk what to do 😭

[main pulsar]

specifically dont do my team use anothers, because my team

well

its so slow to the point i ran FAST TRACK

i REROLLED FOR FAST TRACK PROCS

[keen lichen]

😂

[main pulsar]

if ur archie is 3/5 he may have some racing rain in there?

idk

[tranquil blaze]

Off typed Lana put Elio there to get points

[main pulsar]

if he does might be doable

[keen lichen]

Nope mine is 1/5 as well sadly

[main pulsar]

otherwise the bar usage is actually overdone

[atomic rain]

didnt i say to use lodge rosa on lana

[true sparrow]

You really should have planned all your teams

[main pulsar]

like you can try to use my team but

its a tiny bit

you know

[tranquil blaze]

I did but then some weren’t working and then ppl said my other teams were bad soooooo not my fault man

[atomic rain]

i mean my teams are bad too but it should give you a basis to work off of

[tranquil blaze]

And I’m just trying to get the reward so off typing one stage should be fine, I’ll re-do Lana if I don’t have enough points

[true sparrow]

best I can think of is Hilbert, Barry and Marlon for Nessa

[atomic rain]

you can have like 1 or two off type units

[true sparrow]

but he's gonna be stuck at 3 sp atk if even

since you already used elio

[tranquil blaze]

Buddy I’m running with the bare basics you have Archie, Gloria and ss blue

[atomic rain]

bro you have variety lyra

thats better than archie

[main pulsar]

i did a 500 run for fun

[atomic rain]

idk what you mean by that lol

[tranquil blaze]

She’s used

[main pulsar]

it doesnt seem like the returns for super high investment in one fight is very high

[true sparrow]

you have the units, they've just been poorly distributed

[main pulsar]

so i think spreading them is optimal but i dont wanna math

also sidenote i am so mad calem is dark primary

[true sparrow]

you used Nessa and Lyra together

while each should've been in one team

[atomic rain]

thats why i told them to reset but noo they said no

[tranquil blaze]

Someone else told me too bc I was struggling with marlon

[true sparrow]

ok, but you need to see if that change affects your other teams

[tranquil blaze]

I was struggling with marlon, god it feels like I just keep repeating myself like a broken record

[main pulsar]

so what your saying is you dont wanna reset because marlon is hard

[true sparrow]

fixing one struggle and creating another is not a proper solution

[main pulsar]

but if you dont reset you cant do it

[true sparrow]

Marlon would've been way bette with Nessa than Lyra

[tranquil blaze]

https://youtu.be/ywWEaXHPUoY

[true sparrow]

he can debuff speed while increasing your own def

[tranquil blaze]

I’ve been doing with with a few changes

[tranquil blaze]

Ive tried that and it wasn’t working

[atomic rain]

what str are you doing

[true sparrow]

Go Barry, SS Misty and Marlon for Nessa and pick this for SS Misty

[atomic rain]

why is ss misty tech again

[tranquil blaze]

Trying to do nessa

[main pulsar]

because no stats raised and then kaboom right

[atomic rain]

im asking what strength not stage

[tranquil blaze]

Oop, 150

All have been 150 except the off type at 250

[atomic rain]

150 should be easily doable

just try it with runner’s team

[sage dawn]

I just barely Best him at 400 but My scores are pretty low should i try lowing the difficulty ?

[atomic rain]

57k is very good what do you mean

[whole plank]

Ok i got around to Misty, I’m lacking a bunch of units so I didn’t get as high as I would have liked.

[sage dawn]

Well i have seen similar teams surpasing 70k and i was wondering if the units live the points would compensate

[rancid perch]

the team can go higher but it'd require a lot of patience resetting for flinch rng

[whole plank]

Why in the seven seas is misty not ex yet?

[sage dawn]

And tbh Lana and Misty have been destroying me

Si i am trying to get the highest amount of points in the other 3

[mortal timber]

Sorry for the double ping but at this point I went full power with Empoleon here😅
Slight increase on Misty, very slight but helpful! And I am out for real!

Misty: 650 strength
Marlon: 400 strength
Lana: 440 strength
Nessa: 564 strength
Archie: 580 strength

@onyx crystal

[whole plank]

Gyarados tech?

[mortal timber]

Tech dos yes

[whole plank]

I’m missing limited watee pairs

I won’t be able to reach your score

[long oyster]

Then dont reach it

Thats a top 100 score right here

You dont need to go that high for the medal

[spark storm]

700 Lana

[main pulsar]

Not 3 water

[spark storm]

But still better than what I would have done with 3 water lol

[late basalt]

In 4 hours I dropped 83

Assuming the rate stays the same

Which it won't

We have 55 hours left

[keen lichen]

@main pulsar

I did it

[main pulsar]

Nice

[long oyster]

That Lana score would almost make me use SST

[main pulsar]

Did you have speed problems

If not I’m doing something wrong

[late basalt]

I'll drop 1141 by the end of the event supposedly

[spark storm]

It was a fucking pain

[late basalt]

If the rate at which it's going down stays

I think I'm safe

[long oyster]

Tell me about it

[tranquil blaze]

This a good grid for SS Misty for SS Misty/Barry/marlon

[long oyster]

But at least the def debuff is huge

It's manageable

[spark storm]

Needed to not pick max conductivity to have stronger nuke so only 2 ET

[long oyster]

Not sure if Haze MPR is necessary

[keen lichen]

No not really and speed problems

[main pulsar]

How

[keen lichen]

I think it's just super random and some runs you get luckier than others

Depending on how many moves they miss what moves they use and how many you evade

It's either really hard some runs

Like impossible

Or really easy

[main pulsar]

Hm

[tranquil blaze]

Bruuuh im doing like no damage during barry's sync

At least to nessa, the sides pretty much nearly die to sync

[main pulsar]

Have you reduced their speed

Have you picked up his sync nuke tiles

[tranquil blaze]

Yes

[main pulsar]

Then somethings not right

[tranquil blaze]

Barry for the love of god refresh no hesitation 🅱️lease

Ughhhhhh I get so close with second sync but by then im dead

[main pulsar]

What is this team

[tranquil blaze]

???

[grand perch]

Seems to have stabilized, at least for my position. Don’t think I’ll need to actually tryhard haha

[keen lichen]

Who do I use on marlon?????????????

I hate this game

[atomic rain]

we all do

nessa and lodge rosa if you have them

[main pulsar]

i used cserena

and then marlon

[tranquil blaze]

HELPPPPPPPP???????????? I started recording my nessa run bc the team wasn't working AND??????? I BEAT NESSA?????

Archie time

I’m gonna have to redo battles

okay WOW Archie was so easy although I probably went over kill w/ kris/lana/EX hilbert (so kris didn't have to waste time setting up) kris wasn't even EXed but im gonna EX her and try again at a higher level

IM SO CLOSE TO ALL THE REWARDS HEEEEELP

[deft trout]

How are my teams for water high score event? I want to get at least 180k

And does 1 mc have to be in each team?

[sullen pier]

Yes

[brittle condor]

Can someone pls help me build teams for the water event

For each round, which units should I use?

Btw I have glojo ex-d now and i also have may and wailmer

[tranquil blaze]

[brittle condor]

i did check the pins i just need help in building my teams cause i dont understand the event that well!!!

im having issues with synergy maaan

[tranquil blaze]

It’s kinda like CS, each stage has a parameter to follow and you pick which units are the best for that stage, you get extra points for having a main character/time trail/confusion inflicted, so check the pinned and see which units are good for which stage

[brittle condor]

ok

[tranquil blaze]

Trying to get the last 4 rewards is difficult I feel like I can't up the strength or the teams will fall apart

[stray dust]

@chilly flame man my perfect run got ruin my rock slide flinch

I lost my motivation screw this

[tranquil blaze]

THAT IS SO MEEEEEEAAAAN I have 2 rewards to get left if I can manage Misty at 230 I think I got this

[round stone]

tf is that team..?!?!

[tranquil blaze]

It’s a team that can crush Misty

[round stone]

waitaminute am I tripping..?

Opponent Strength Increase: 10,200. points nvm that converts to 200-299 points

If you want a tested team that has gotten 350 points, you could ask Gakon for their Misty team specs. Here's the team: #1053291896778264597 message

waitaminute wasn't there that misty, misty, may team on nessa..?

YEAH LMAO it's right here: https://youtu.be/4W2EvbQlIrk?t=570

[forest ferry]

If you are having trouble to run 15 water units, just replace some with offtype and bump str to make 2 water, 1 offtype team

It's easier to get 40kish pts that way

[tranquil blaze]

Turns out I was a big dumb and set vs misty to 240! So 230 will do nothing!

[round stone]

*if u got good offtype pairs

[forest ferry]

*Very busted offtype pairs

[tranquil blaze]

I'm just trying to get the rewards AND THERES ONE REWARD LEFTTTTT

[forest ferry]

Why is your lana run only 15k pts?

You can Defo bump it

[tranquil blaze]

Off typed lmao

[forest ferry]

?

What unit?

You only run 1 offtype

[tranquil blaze]

Yeah you see, I misread that and just off typed with 2 units and threw elio in there to get points

[forest ferry]

Nowonder

[round stone]

.. and what was the team?

[tranquil blaze]

Yeah that's on me WHEEZE

SST red/SSA Cynthia/elio lol

[forest ferry]

Bruh

SSTred alone is overkill

[tranquil blaze]

🤷‍♂️

[forest ferry]

Just SSTred and ssblue demolish Lana

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1128052735967764621/1132333181945786418/Screenshot_20230722-205645.png

And that was 670 str

[tranquil blaze]

Mmmmmyeaaah here's the thing, I don't have SS blue

[round stone]

FREE SSTRED TEAM ON LANA NOT CLICKBAIT: #1128052735967764621 message

[forest ferry]

If you don't have ssblue, Lana is very hard

[round stone]

oh the only difference is wake and ssmisty

choose ur poison

[forest ferry]

Mine is more F2P

[round stone]

it's nice to have multiple options

[forest ferry]

[round stone]

who knows? the lana, kris, wake team seems pretty common

[onyx current]

Wow even at 140 misty hits hard lel

[forest ferry]

Tbf I personally prefer SSTred vs Marlon
It's just cerena is better than SSTred for that fight

[haughty haven]

No rain ?

[forest ferry]

If you don't have cerena but SSTred, SSTred goes for Marlon fight with double costume misty

695 str btw

[onyx current]

Idk what I’m doing anymore tbh

[tranquil blaze]

I regret resetting marlon

[forest ferry]

Yes

Coz she's a full special atk stage

Except drill run

Which you reset the moment you see

Run sskris or any other spl def buffer

Rain also counters her hard

[onyx current]

I’m not even trying anymore why am I struggling 💀

Fianlly e

[tranquil blaze]

Would it be possible to up my Lana score with the units I have left if I reset her stage? I literally just need a SMICH of points to get all the rewards

[round stone]

I think you should use sstred on marlon instead

[tranquil blaze]

But then id have to reset two stages and beat both again (as I want to complete the event and not leave anything uncleared)

[round stone]

then if try sstred on lana..? idrk how well that's gonna go

[tranquil blaze]

I already did SSTred against Lana with SSACynthia and Elio at 250 strength

[maiden canopy]

Ok, I thought that this event will end tomorrow on July 24, but it actually ends on July 25

[forest ferry]

Resetting should still be fine
Since it's all low score runs

[chilly kayak]

It does end tomorrow, as in 2 resets, but you know, time zones

[maiden canopy]

Tomorrow is 2 resets?

[chilly kayak]

For me, yes. Again, timezones

[carmine cedar]

Either more people were trying again to be safe or the rush hours may be beginning. In 16 hours or so I dropped 200~ ranks

[tranquil blaze]

[forest ferry]

Should just improve lana run

Would be ez pts

[tranquil blaze]

HOW????!!! I'm not changing any of my other team's for lana bc if I do I won't be able to beat the other stages

[forest ferry]

Well you don't have to change misty team atleast

But others
Maybe

It's also less stressful than resetting same stage with bad teams

[tranquil blaze]

I've literally struggled to beat marlon and nessa so im not resetting those

[forest ferry]

You struggled coz they are underwhelming teams

SSTred is easier vs Marlon than Lana

Marlon with SSTred is so brain-dead that only rng was potions

Lana needs flinch so badly and red drops like half his damage to grid it and it's never worth

Unless you somehow have wake around

[tranquil blaze]

Wake's flinch ability is absolutely dog garbage, never flinches when I use him and yes he is gridded

[forest ferry]

He has like 2nd best flinch chance among the options we have rn

[haughty haven]

Well his flinch with grid is 50%

[forest ferry]

Best is techdos who needs investment to tank

[haughty haven]

And he has confusion

[forest ferry]

Even 3* wake can tank decent strength

[tranquil blaze]

Please its like 1% chance with me

[haughty haven]

Maybe y dont reset enough

[rough forum]

^

Also isn't wakes flinch 60%

Not 50

30+30%

[forest ferry]

It's 2 different aggr 1

[rough forum]

No wait

Right

It's aggr 1+1 not 2

And waterfall is 20%

My b

[tranquil blaze]

If he's 50% flinch I shouldn't need to reset, he just sucks at flinching

[forest ferry]

It's still good chance for a flinch unit

[rough forum]

50% is extremely good

[forest ferry]

Considering MPR is like 40% often times

[rough forum]

But it's a cointoss

[haughty haven]

What do y mean no need for reset

[forest ferry]

And you still want mpr on lot of runs

[haughty haven]

[rough forum]

You can get 100 not flinches in a row with bad enough luck

[haughty haven]

Even 90% sing can make y reset

[rough forum]

Yea

Even a 95% accuracy hydro or icy wind can miss 3,4 times in a row

[tranquil blaze]

Okay whatever

Talking about % rate isn't helping me with anything

[rough forum]

Gacha games are prime example as of how % are indicative numbers

But wake do be definitely better than most units at flinching

[forest ferry]

We don't help you

We can only give suggestions

You are the one that should be willing to follow em

[haughty haven]

Do y think i do 560 Lana without reset ?

It took me like 3 hours

[forest ferry]

My Lana run involved cloyster minrolling sync so that wake can live after that

[rough forum]

Damn I got kicked out of the top post

For the first time since the event started

Sad

Sucks to not have so many limited waters

[tranquil blaze]

Not with how this server is nah, y'all make me talk like a broken record half the time when you ppl don't listen to what I say

[rough forum]

[forest ferry]

I just wish starmisty had EX

[rough forum]

You realize how many hundred of times have most of these suggestions been said ducydoo?

[forest ferry]

You are saying same thing like broken record coz you aren't listening to any suggestions

[tranquil blaze]

🅱️lease when

[forest ferry]

You don't want to move units around and make comps

180k is still hard if you are not willing to reset

Since almost every stage has an annoying move

And wants resetting for better rng

[tranquil blaze]

It's not even just in high scores im talking about y'all not listening, in CS, in EBE's some of y'all got pissed that I wasn't using my stamina when reset was an hour away

[rough forum]

This kind of event is not even that rewarding so

• if you struggle to hit 180k you can either give up or try harder
• if you're struggling hitting master rank, it's probably better to give up as it's gonna become hell in the last 24hrs

[forest ferry]

Nobody is talking abt stamina tho

[rough forum]

And please I wanna reiterate that

• we're not the same people helping in every channel
• some people could get pissed after saying the same thing to you two times after saying to hundred of other people before you

[tranquil blaze]

I just have 1 reward left man I don't want to give up lmao

[forest ferry]

Atleast not here

[rough forum]

Then it's probably better to find a stage you can widely improve while only slightly reduce another

[forest ferry]

Mans running 2 offtypes in lana run

[rough forum]

Ah

[forest ferry]

Can easily improve that one

[rough forum]

[forest ferry]

Instead doesn't want to reset it

[tranquil blaze]

Yeah not here but it was an issue a while back, it's what I mean when some of y'all don't listen

[tranquil blaze]

Because I misread Jesus christ!

[rough forum]

Well then just reset it

And lower strenght a bit

That should give you like 8-10k

And net you the last reward

[tranquil blaze]

And win how exactly? It's at the lowest recommend for off type 250

[rough forum]

?

[forest ferry]

What recommended?

[rough forum]

With 1 water

Anything is better

[forest ferry]

Just reduce like 30-40 strength

And run another water unit

[rough forum]

Even 70-80 lol

[forest ferry]

Itll give way higher score

[rough forum]

150 with 2 waters > 250 with 1 water

[forest ferry]

Also it's sstred

[forest ferry]

He's Uber braindead

That's for 40kish pts

[rough forum]

Yeah tbolt red is super free

[tranquil blaze]

Can you please not insult me thanks

[forest ferry]

You just need 21kish

[rough forum]

He's talking about the unit

Not you

[forest ferry]

I meant SSTred smh

[rough forum]

Uber braindead is the definition of the last Anni units

[forest ferry]

Not ash
Ash suks in this event

I'd even use zygarde over him
And zygarde itself is underwhelming offtype option

[rough forum]

He's Uber braindead in other scenarios tho

In general those 3 require as much thought as falling asleep

[forest ferry]

Yea
This event is hard for ash to get a slot

[tranquil blaze]

Ehh tried using him on misty to see if that would work, made easy work of her but didn't really do points

[rough forum]

Tbolt red is the best of the 3 so that's why he's still useful here

Anyway

[forest ferry]

Yea coz you can't run another thunder unit with him

[rough forum]

Reset that 1 water stage

Reduce str

And win with 2 waters

[forest ferry]

Well
I'd just run SSTred vs Marlon

Make that stage like 550 strength

And use the 2 costume mistys

That's like 45k+ team

[rough forum]

It don't matter tbh, we're talking about making him just enough

They don't need 45k

They just want enough for the last reward

[tranquil blaze]

That's taking away from other team's tho, you're suggesting stuff that impacts my other team's

[rough forum]

And for that the can just tbolt red +2 random decent waters

At 200-250 STR

If tbolt is 3/5

[forest ferry]

Are you running smth like this grid for SSTred

https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/2/2500?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=0&g=AAECAwQFCx0gIyUpKywtLi8

Assuming he's 3/5

[rough forum]

150-180 if 1/5

180 STR with 2 waters will net you enough

Just do that

No need to tryhard if you just want 180k

[tranquil blaze]

Idk if any of the water types I have left are decent

[rough forum]

Elio is busted unless you don't have troublemaker on him wdym

[forest ferry]

Elio, wake, SSTred

Ez team

Wake has confusion

You don't need sleep

It's low strength afterall

[tranquil blaze]

I do not use elio so 🤷‍♂️

[rough forum]

Yeah sure

Well it's your loss tbh

He's an extremely good unit

[forest ferry]

Well
Elio can't sleep when enemy is paralyzed anyways

So it won't be an issue

He just needs to live as long as possible

[haughty haven]

Elio

[forest ferry]

Wake can do the flinch and confusion instead

[haughty haven]

oh y use sst red

[tranquil blaze]

I mean probably yeah, thing is I kinda have a lot of units and get paralyzed into just using f2p or 3rd anni trio

[rough forum]

I'd just rather run elio + clawitzer for heals at this point tbfh, but it don't really matter at low str

[forest ferry]

What heals vs lana?

[rough forum]

Oh it's Lana

[forest ferry]

[rough forum]

Right

[tranquil blaze]

Bestie there is no healing against lana

[rough forum]

Bestie I joined mid discussion

🙂

I'm trying to help your sassy ass

So sorry if I missed the specific stage

🙂

[haughty haven]

Maybe at 150str 2 punching bag can help sst red clear fight in time

[tranquil blaze]

It is a term/slang I use for ppl!

[forest ferry]

150 str is too low for SSTred
He probably wouldn't even need 2nd sync

It's super ez but they ain't trying

[haughty haven]

at least 150str 2 water better than 250str 1 water

[rough forum]

Yep

That's the point

[tranquil blaze]

I'm literally in the middle of something rn and can't try

[rough forum]

Anything over 130-140 is better than 1 water 99% of cases

[tranquil blaze]

Can we please get over the part of me MISREADING thanks

Like y'all keep bringing it up

[rough forum]

@haughty haven what's your Lana dojoglo team for 500+ STR again

[haughty haven]

Dojo(EX)-Hilbert(EX)-Wake(4star)

[rough forum]

Mhhh I see

I could replicate it but I found lodge Rosa better than wake for my 450 clear

[haughty haven]

I didnt use because Hilbert

[rough forum]

Maybe it's because I used dojoglo mostly as flincher

With aggravation iron head

[haughty haven]

Hilbert just cant survive

And i cant grid Dojo with flinch

[rough forum]

Yeah at 450 STR i needed a slippery dodge to win

[haughty haven]

Because i will not have enough dmg

[forest ferry]

She's better if staggering 1 actually procs

[haughty haven]

even with that, i still need 1 lucky confusion to win

[forest ferry]

Wake is less taxing on flinch

And is bulkier than lrosa

So more strength

[haughty haven]

4star wake can survive Lana 560str with +4def

that why i grid Hilber for that

if i have 4star PU (Which i dont have ), maybe i can try higher

[forest ferry]

The water banner is amazing for 4* PU

[haughty haven]

Me saving right now

[forest ferry]

I caved in and got lySS
So I am rolling the banner for last copy

Candy is too expensive these days, I'd rather roll dupes

[haughty haven]

Me who want 4/5 Dojo for LG

Instead had 2/5 SSLy from Daily

[forest ferry]

Yea mine is 2/5 as well

If I get 3/5, I can get another 10k pts vs nessa

[haughty haven]

I want EX SSLy

But i dont want to roll

CS next week is not enough PU

[forest ferry]

I can ex lana with CS reset

Then I can try dc2 Nessa run against Archie

[haughty haven]

GL

i want to say is that team gauge suck

[rough forum]

+4 Def?

[haughty haven]

If Nessa does't free gauge

gl

[forest ferry]

I need like 6-9k more pts so I can get the PU number back to 5

[haughty haven]

Yes

Hilbert can do that

[rough forum]

How exactly are you getting +4 Def, team huddle?

[haughty haven]

This

Like i said

Hilbert cant survive

He just need to eat 1 ice beam

=faint

So i grid him at least help wake survive

[rough forum]

Yeah emergency huddle, not team huddle

[forest ferry]

I just noticed

Are you running that Hilbert comp coz you don't have ssblue?

Coz I don't see him at all

[haughty haven]

Yes

[forest ferry]

In your clears

Ah

Can't wait for grass event
Then I can ask the same thing to everyone I see about ssleaf

[forest ferry]

Man if you had ssblue,you'd be in top 5

[haughty haven]

That why i feel i'm so stupid

I picked SSRed

[rough forum]

My SSL is 5/5

Noxious hit my beloved

[haughty haven]

Why i picked SSRed

When i had SSHilda

So stupid

[forest ferry]

It's fine
He'll be helpful in fire event

Tho fire has less tanks than water or grass

Even psychic has more tanks I think

So fire gonna take a while

[haughty haven]

CHilda will become tank

[forest ferry]

Next one is grass, then psychic after that fire
Is my prediction, assuming they do more of this

[haughty haven]

Grass will just spam sleep every stage

[forest ferry]

Grass can sleep powder and psychic can zen headbutt

Other typings don't have as much units compared to those types either

[urban reef]

Wonder what I can do to Lana with 1/5 Jojoria . Maybe better than what Hilbert, SS Grimseley(EX) and Wake can do

[forest ferry]

She can still drop defenses and can kill middle with fighting dmax

[urban reef]

So, how much strength?

If Grimsley was replaced by her

[forest ferry]

Why replace grimsley

Run grimsley for nuke

Dojo for disruptor

[urban reef]

What about confusion ?

[forest ferry]

I mean 1/5 dojo nuke

[long oyster]

You dont have to confuse

[urban reef]

Uhh yeah

[long oyster]

It's just a bonus

[urban reef]

I just like those 3000 points

[long oyster]

I find Glojo + Grimsley sus tho

Gauge must be hell

[haughty haven]

Glojo Gauge ok

[forest ferry]

Grim spam water fall till he gets to nuke

[haughty haven]

but Hilbert can buff spe

[forest ferry]

Hilbert gives +4 spd

[long oyster]

Right off the bat ?

[forest ferry]

You don't need it right off bat
Do you?

[haughty haven]

if you need, y can use 1 X Spe all from the start

[long oyster]

Well I kinda need grimsley to sync to use aqua jet

[urban reef]

Also Grimsley can buff his speed although slowly

[long oyster]

So I assume I need speed fast

[urban reef]

He has Inertia so yes

[long oyster]

If +2 is enough then alright

[forest ferry]

Hilbert takes 4 turns to set up
Till then you are only using water fall and surging strikes
So it should be light on gauge

[haughty haven]

it a lot of gauge

[forest ferry]

And after the 4 turns the team has 4 spd anyways

[haughty haven]

Much more gauge than Kris-Nessa-Lana

[long oyster]

Kris Nessa is hell anyway

[urban reef]

Kris has been used against Archie

[long oyster]

Nessas free gauge never procs

[urban reef]

yeah

[haughty haven]

Sometime i must use Lana water gun because no gauge

Even Rock Tomb from Nessa

[forest ferry]

Choose between Nessa procing free moves and Nessa actually dropping defense

[haughty haven]

Hell

[long oyster]

[urban reef]

But still I wonder how much better it'd go with Jojoria . Lana is my worst stage at 47k points

[long oyster]

I'm at 55k with Grimsley Hilbert Lodge Rosa

[forest ferry]

Lana is my worst stage as well
But it's only 6k pts less than Archie run

[long oyster]

I expect glojo to give me another 10k

But I will never know

sigh

[urban reef]

Wait a minute is your Hilbert EX ?

[long oyster]

Yes

[urban reef]

Huh that's why

[long oyster]

I EX'd him and grimsley specifically because Lana was annoying the shit out of me

[forest ferry]

My Lana run is 59k

But its offtype dps

[urban reef]

My best stage is Nessa at 60k with LySS , SSB and egg blastoise

[forest ferry]

Lana would be much easier with ssblue imo

[urban reef]

Probably

[forest ferry]

But well if you are already at masters, don't have to worry abt it

[long oyster]

My SSB went to Nessa

Lysandre and tech dos needed MGA

[urban reef]

Well yeah I am 3k something

4 gauge Steam eruption

[forest ferry]

I just double misty with lySS

So it wasn't as taxing on gauge

Tho I did used 2 HWs

[urban reef]

Misty is in use against Misty
And Event Misty against Marlon

[forest ferry]

Not starmisty

Both both costume versions

[urban reef]

SS ?

[forest ferry]

Yep

She has charging infliction

So I just press mist

And get back gauge

[urban reef]

Ah yeah

[haughty haven]

Me dealing with SSLy gauge

[urban reef]

https://tenor.com/view/haha-bongo-cat-press-the-button-explosion-gif-14344779

Me finally pressing B Hydro Pump after Lysandre's sync

[long oyster]

Me pressing steam eruption after that B hydro pump on 3 burned opponents

[urban reef]

Same feeling. Twice

[mortal timber]

The goat SS lysandre

[rugged fjord]

reached masters 3757, 256K points feeling safe

[warm kayak]

trust the plan, fire type masters next actually grass instead

grass has some interesting units but too many of them want sun tbh

SC Rosa will be core i can feel it in my bones

[forest ferry]

Nah
Real mvp will be Ramos

But fr tho
Strongest unit will be adaman for grass event, he's already amazing for offtype in this event itself

[warm kayak]

Acerola mvp

i don't remember if anything besides SS Lyra can debuff accuracy

or buff evasion

at least the guaranteed flinch should help tremendously even with resistance, she can triple queue with it too

grass is full of monsters albeit not that many free ones

[urban reef]

Cue Brendan getting No Quarter on his expanded grid

[warm kayak]

if he will get that expansion at all

he got mega already

[urban reef]

True but we can't exactly say anything

[warm kayak]

i wouldn't mind Mallow getting an expansion

she always feels underwhelming

right, there's SS Erika in free

[true sparrow]

Mallow will be one of the best ones in a future grass HS

[warm kayak]

and she enables a strong tank, namely Vileplume Erika

[true sparrow]

easily better than any of the strikes

only SS Lyra and Adaman will be better than her reallly

[atomic rain]

wait why would she be one of the best

[true sparrow]

confusion shy5 makes the sides a joke

[atomic rain]

oh right

[true sparrow]

and she lowers attack which heavily improves your chances to survive a sync

[atomic rain]

they were all physical except for misty right

[true sparrow]

most grass supps are bulkier on the special side

so they heavily appreciate tanking physical hits better

[forest ferry]

Grass highscore will just be sleep/sslyra+dps+tank all the way

[atomic rain]

kid named resilience:

[true sparrow]

well that's one team

which lyra carries

[onyx crystal]

<t:1690118340:D> Point Floor/Ceiling Change

• Rank 1: 458,877 -> 460,917 (+2,040)
• **Top 10: ** 407,328 -> 410,991 (+3,663)
• **Top 50 : ** 372,582 -> 375,924 (+3,342)
• Top 100: 356,977 -> 360,057 (+4,000)

Rank 10,000 is near 220,000 as of <t:1689880260:R>

Foreign Player Watch: 👁️
JPN Hashtag: https://twitter.com/hashtag/ポケマススコアタ

[true sparrow]

and Lyra goes on the same path of C Serena, you shouldn't have another dmg dealer with her

[forest ferry]

Ramos, eggsaur, eggexeggutor

[true sparrow]

she carries a stage on her own

[atomic rain]

flinch and sleep both proc resilience early though so how are you gonna work through that? ramos basically necessitates another dd

[forest ferry]

For cerena, I still bought elio

[true sparrow]

yeah 'cause serena cannot flinch that easily

but Lyra can

[forest ferry]

Unlike cerena Lyra doesn't have dps

So you'll still bring one

[true sparrow]

serena doesn't have dps in that stage

[forest ferry]

What? She spams her 150 BP move

[true sparrow]

yeah, and it does nearly nothing

[forest ferry]

And she has like almost double nuke of Lyra

[true sparrow]

the bulk of dmg is on her nuke

[warm kayak]

Lyra can squeeze in extra nuke if you flinch well

[true sparrow]

their nuke won't be that different

serena is using rebuff and no rain, with power play from grid

[mortal timber]

Crazy how the 100th place got an increase of 7k points

[true sparrow]

lyra will use g terrain with power play from her grid

[maiden canopy]

I'm surprised there's still no 500k pts. yet

[true sparrow]

it's not possible

[maiden canopy]

Hmmmm, I guess

[warm kayak]

next water HS if they decide to repeat early

[true sparrow]

power play is just not a usually go for lyra's build since she's so supportive for other units, but on a stage like this she would go by herself and nuke

[maiden canopy]

Has anyone attempted JL's 850 strength clear?

[forest ferry]

That run butchers like 3 teams

[mortal timber]

The last 2 resets madness is starting to get real

[true sparrow]

that clear is as good as anni trio

[forest ferry]

So

[mortal timber]

Glad I improved even more yesterday

[austere ferry]

I wonder if 100k in a single run is possible, and if anyone has achieved it?

[forest ferry]

I've already seen similar scores from Archie+sskris vs misty

[true sparrow]

yes

[mortal timber]

Runner got it

[maiden canopy]

What if psychic is next?

[forest ferry]

It's grass or psychic

[maiden canopy]

Everyone cries for not having SSteven

[warm kayak]

psychic tanks

[forest ferry]

But if they want to torture us, they can go poison

[maiden canopy]

There's not even 15 poison units in the game

Including limiteds

[forest ferry]

I have 3 psy terrain setters, so I hope it's psychic

But grass is more likely

[warm kayak]

psy terrain will backfire so hard

you will boost enemy moves too

[forest ferry]

Well people still bring rain vs Archie

[long oyster]

Just like rain does rn

Yet we balling

[forest ferry]

It doesn't matter if you time it right

[warm kayak]

i can't recall any psychic tanks

[long oyster]

Simply dont get nuked under zone

[warm kayak]

is my issue

[long oyster]

...Caitlin

[maiden canopy]

When will we get more units with Expanded Sync passive?

[warm kayak]

that's a striker

[austere ferry]

You forgetting Lunatone?

[long oyster]

Yes

Oh yeah Lunatone

[warm kayak]

less bulk than Bianca

[long oyster]

CBede

[warm kayak]

Sabrina, oh

[long oyster]

Oh yeah Bianca can tank

And Sabrina to some extent

[warm kayak]

right i keep forgetting CBede is a thing

[maiden canopy]

What will be the conditions for the next high score event?

[long oyster]

Who knows

[warm kayak]

who knows

[long oyster]

It could be a "glasses" high score event

Lear pullers would be happy

[maiden canopy]

SS Steven pullers too

[true sparrow]

lear has sunglesses, not glasses

[atomic rain]

caitlin can actually tank decently fwiw

[warm kayak]

Bianca chads

[forest ferry]

Ssdawn, mespirit, both Sabrina, cbede and cope options like Caitlin and Lucian for tank

Oh yea also mew

[long oyster]

Oh yeah SS Dawn

I only use her with zerena nowadays so she got off my mind

[warm kayak]

that makes psychic a strong contender against grass

[atomic rain]

how yall gonna forget about ss dawn 💀

[long oyster]

Tbf

[maiden canopy]

Because I don't have her?

[long oyster]

Tanking with SS Dawn in High Score is gonna be hell

The recoil in her tm is a huge factor

[maiden canopy]

Yeah, her TM forces her to commit lethal faint

[forest ferry]

Grass is ez for me
I have 3/5 rosa to tank

[maiden canopy]

Lyrabi rerun when

[forest ferry]

Never

Rerun will eternally loop after luSSa back to Archie

[maiden canopy]

I want my revenge on the SS Johtrio girls after they shafted me last year

[haughty haven]

That was the hell time for me

Pity all 3

[forest ferry]

I wasn't even playing back then

Due to hiatus

Tho I would have skipped em back then anyways

[lone harness]

Can someone help me with team building for Nessa and Archie? I've done Misty, Marlon and Lana already (where I used the now unavailable sync pairs)

[forest ferry]

Didn't use Archie vs misty?

[long oyster]

Tank Archie with Lana

[forest ferry]

He's very hard to run vs Nessa due to EQ onslaught

[long oyster]

She has super effective Leech Life against him

[forest ferry]

And Archie blocks spl damage

[maiden canopy]

Nessa is a FFA

Archie needs physical DDs

[forest ferry]

Can you ex your Kris?

For Archie

She's like the only choice available but without ex she's very underwhelming

[lone harness]

I have exactly 20 5* PU so I can EX one of them

[forest ferry]

What did you use against misty?

[haughty haven]

Can you show all your run ?

[long oyster]

My other advice would be dont use wallace and siebold

They huh
Suck.

[forest ferry]

But siebad has confusion

*siebold

[long oyster]

He is a ontype sync nuker

If his only value is confusion he is pointless

[atomic rain]

crasher wake is better for confusion

and like

he also has flinch

no reason to use siebold here

[long oyster]

Are you aiming for 180k points @lone harness

[atomic rain]

that looks fine to get 180k

[lone harness]

Yes, one more yellow coin is always great

[long oyster]

I think you can do Lana + double feraligatr on Archie

[atomic rain]

id use kris on nessa honestly

having the endure makes her better for weathering eq and swift queues post sync

[forest ferry]

Lana, wake, Kris vs Archie
Archie, Marlon, Smisty vs Nessa

[atomic rain]

which was very annoying

[forest ferry]

Should be enuff for 180k

[atomic rain]

ss grimsley ex and lodge silver was enough for dps on my run

[long oyster]

Hmmm

I guess

[forest ferry]

Since there's already like 120k+ pts

Another 60k is ez with those teams

[lone harness]

Should I EX one of them? Got exactly 5* 20 Power ups right now

[forest ferry]

I doubt you'd need ex if your target is just 180k

Just try the stage without ex and then see if you need ex for more pts

[main pulsar]

ngl

just reset on nessa until she uses earthquake as little as possible

[atomic rain]

in terms of difficulty it was like

lana >>> marlon >>> nessa >>>>>>> misty >>>>>>> archie in the mariana trench

[forest ferry]

For me Marlon was ez as hell

[atomic rain]

dude was so weak compared to everyone else

[forest ferry]

He does low damage pre sync

Only reset free option

[atomic rain]

yeah but for high strength you have to post sync and then evasion starts fucking with you

[haughty haven]

For me Nessa is 2nd hard stage

[atomic rain]

it also doesnt help

that sides actually do damage in this mode

[main pulsar]

archie is hard

[forest ferry]

For me it's lana >>>>>>>>Nessa > misty >>>> Marlon > Archie

[haughty haven]

I hate when she uses EQ

[main pulsar]

because i only had one team

[forest ferry]

Nessa EQ is just asking to reset

[main pulsar]

nessa was harder for me because the team i used was bad

[forest ferry]

And golisopod can flinch

[main pulsar]

nessa elio and psymisty

[atomic rain]

nessa i just off typed with ss steven

my dps options were not good by then

[main pulsar]

well if you have to offtype its probably hard

[atomic rain]

nah

it was just rnging until ss misty actually lived so i could get a third sync

[visual kayak]

Does this end today or tomorrow

[forest ferry]

It ends after 2 resets

[lone harness]

Btw, this SMisty is Swimsuit Misty or the Sygna?

[long oyster]

Swimsuit

Sygna is SS

[primal shadow]

Swimisty

[carmine cedar]

39 hours and a half remains.

[cyan tusk]

Go grind that points peeps

[deft trout]

How are my teams for 180k?

[long oyster]

There is some shifting to do

[deft trout]

can you help me shift?

[long oyster]

Put Cerena on Marlon

May on Misty

Lana on Archie

Hilbert on Lana

Wait hold on lemme just write teams down

[deft trout]

ok

thank you

[long oyster]

Marlon :
Cerena / Elio / Marlon or Swimisty

Archie :
Kris / Lana / You can keep Techtoise iirc

Lana :
Grimsley / Lodge Rosa / Hilbert
(Dont use Grimsley's TM)

Misty :
May / SS Kris / OG Misty

Nessa :
Tech Dos / SS Blue and I guess Nessa...?
