High Score

[forest ferry]

Think it was when I managed to squeeze in -6 spl atk

[hardy fog]

Surely too rng

[forest ferry]

But like I fumbled hard

Due to para not stunning sides

I personally don't want to do the run anyways

Since after mid dies it's very paralysis proc reliant

So I can't go past 600 str even if I get good rng

[hardy fog]

You kinda have a time limit to finish the fight though anyway since sst red need to finish in the 2 terrain cycle

So there is only so much you can do

[lean crag]

Can someone help me make good teams for the electric event?

[hardy fog]

But proc a flinch and a paralyze after sst red 2nd sync would get you very far lol

[lean crag]

I just want to get as many rewards as I can

[forest ferry]

Get BP clemont, BP sophocles and lodge elesa
Look up some of the pinned teams to get an idea
After doing 2-3 runs you can ask again with rest of the stuff you got

Also I'd recommend trying 2 electric, 1 offtype unit

Since you don't have much options

Eggmons suk for this event

[sullen pier]

you can also beat these stages with 0 strength increase first to know about their moves and gimmicks

[lean crag]

How do I unlock lodge elesa so fast?

[fair drift]

get lucky with interacting with her in trainer lodge. use gifts, pick hot topics, etc etc

[lean crag]

So I should buy the hearts?

[thorny grove]

Always

[sullen pier]

you mean interaction counts? you should buy them everyday

[lean crag]

Also why not raichu Lt surge is he bad?

[hardy fog]

Not bad just not as good

[thorny grove]

I think it’s cuz Clem lowered Def for faster kills and also points

[sullen pier]

#1012298913279127582 for specific content please

[azure idol]

Elesa, off type support, filler
N, off type support, filler
HJasmine, off type damager, filler
Sonia, off type damager, filler
SS Elesa, Surge, off type damager
There you go 5 teams

Use electric type as fillers

[lean crag]

Thanks so much🙏

[cyan tusk]

@outer yew there’s an aura Cynthia guy coming for us at rank #3

[mortal timber]

Oh yeah aura Cynthia

[cyan tusk]

They have good taste btw

[mortal timber]

They do, her ex outfit is marvelous

One of my favorites

Oh still hanging in 8th I see

If I can manage to slightly improve the 1/5 N clear on Elesa and finally win Volkner I should reach 380k +

And then stop because considering I do not have dupes of many of the units what I did is already a miracle

SS Hau NC Blue Tred and ofc Ash carrying my whole electric roster

[azure idol]

And that guy has the highest power score I've seen

I wonder if they have everyone at 5/5

[cyan tusk]

Me, literally being here trying to help others forcing my self to not touch the event bc of coupons count:

[forest ferry]

Just get another 25k

So your ticket count will still remain fine

[cyan tusk]

They’re more likely to have 5* 20/20 eggs

Or a lot of 5* units to 20/20

Total strenght comes from overall unit stats not move levels for what I know

I do have few 5* eggs, like less than 10, I guess that’s the gap

[cyan tusk]

I don’t see it happening

I also do have a lot of useless stuff in my bag so since it’s already ruined I could also not care about that count… we’ll see how many peeps will snipe me in these weeks

[hardy fog]

Anyone running a budget NC Blue 1/5 team hitting 70k?

[pliant temple]

woah amazing job Elek' and Bicio, you two are killing it!

[tiny ore]

the best i can do w/ this roster I think

[hardy fog]

I was going to leave it at 75k but I couldn't help myself 😂

[maiden canopy]

How many pts. total are you at?

I'm still sitting at 297k pts.

[hardy fog]

I'm still 288k I'm looking to ex 4 more then i will sort the other ones

[forest ferry]

Which guard should I run on BP clemont for volkner fight?

Electric or dark?

[signal needle]

I just learnt tht ss elesa has higher defenses than everyone except nc blue

[arctic quest]

Huh I always thought she was squishy

Wild

[maiden canopy]

She has low HP, that's why

[signal needle]

Yes cus she cant buff defenses

[azure idol]

The guy is also regular on gauntlet board page 1, a whale that's really good

[arctic quest]

Ah and yeah no defense buffs

[hardy fog]

Reason she is squishy is because she has no def buffs and low hp

[haughty haven]

That bc she doesn’t buff def or SpDef

[maiden canopy]

Low HP and no defensive buffs

[arctic quest]

Grid expansion when

[hardy fog]

I'm still unsure how far I could get with 1/5 NC Blue. Volkner. Soon to be ex Hau Raichu. Does 70k sound doable?

[tiny ore]

she desperately needs first aid

or actual def buffs ofc

[cyan tusk]

In the end it’s us flying from a Lb to another with exceptions tho

Where’s the NYLisia guy

[mortal timber]

Oh it's Haruto, hello hello

[alpine crow]

Hi hi

[hardy fog]

In your opinion, which is the less bad team against Elesa?

1. 1/5 N + Sonia + SSelesa
2. 1/5 N + Sonia + potionchu
3. 1/5 N + Sonia + lt surge

[cyan tusk]

Or you go first and grid sonia for potions or you go second and grid sonia for crit buffing

[hardy fog]

hmmm so first line I have no crit buff

or weak potions

[azure idol]

It's mainly physical so probably not surge

[pliant temple]

y'all are killing it!

[mortal timber]

NAW DUDE I SHOULD HAVE WON BUT MISTARGETED THE LAST POWER TRIP

Ain't no way

[azure idol]

Potionchu has potion overlap, unless you want to grid Sonia with flinch

[mortal timber]

Volkner Imma get you at some point I swear

[azure idol]

I'd say SS Elesa is better to quickly get 2 support sync out, she can also take care of crit buff so Sonia can grid flinch

[hardy fog]

o sheeet I only got 1/5 Elesa

loool

[azure idol]

Does 1/5 have TM MPR?

[hardy fog]

O!

yes it does

so basically I need to reset to proc breathtaking

[azure idol]

Yeah

2 breathtakings to max out N's crit

[red pendant]

okay, good, I am still in Master Rank

[forest ferry]

This is suffering

[arctic quest]

ow

[forest ferry]

I hate volkner

[mortal timber]

Feeling the same atm LMFAO

[hardy fog]

This is my plan based on what I have and what I have seen. I've only executed the 1st team, everything else needs to be ex'ed. Anything you would do different @azure idol ? I still have LT surge, Clemont... and I could pull Bp Surge / Soph.

@forest ferry as well. Mostly inspired by your roster lol

[azure idol]

Looks solid, I might try replacing Volkner with Surge or Clemont, Volkner flinch doesn't really help there since Blue flinches already

[cyan tusk]

I’d recommend 3/5 NCBlue not bc of faves or hs related content, but he’s overall top 3 support in the game (if not arguably #1 btw)

[hardy fog]

I honestly would like to

I dont got no candy 😂 need 6 more

I have 1 candy and 14** coins

[hardy fog]

you think Lt Surge would be more useful here? To lower the sp attack?

but 50% increase for Hau AoE seems pretty solid

[cyan tusk]

You’re very close

[azure idol]

Yeah and Clemont lowers spatk too albeit slower

[hardy fog]

sorry 14 coins I need 6 more

[cyan tusk]

Still close

[hardy fog]

not going to happen before event ends

[azure idol]

Volkner just gives Hau 2 fat syncs and nothing else, might work better idk

[hardy fog]

@haughty haven you should try what Wenwen saying here 😮

wait so terrain is not going to buff the discharge?

[azure idol]

It does I forgor

[hardy fog]

haha so you still think debuff is better?

[azure idol]

Is your Clemont EX?

[hardy fog]

no

[azure idol]

He nukes WAY harder than Hau

[haughty haven]

Marnie Stage is Physical

Her only Special Move is Snarl

[azure idol]

If Clemont is EX I thin he is better, not sure about non EX

He gets you a lot of debuff points

[haughty haven]

And if i swap now, my Alola/Unova theme will be anoying to get again

[azure idol]

Ah right I didn't consider the regional bonus I was thinking replace Volkner with Clemont

[haughty haven]

I know i can improve point by swap them around

Like get Nemona out of Surge stage

She will give more point for other stage than that stage

[hardy fog]

I think Blaze's Lt Surge SST Red Soph for 77k is best value

[haughty haven]

Yes

But i happy with no HP lost run

so no swap anymore

[hardy fog]

honestly that one line makes him uber

lol

[haughty haven]

[forest ferry]

Most my runs took like 2 hrs of resetting

Especially the cancerous Marnie run

And rn I am trying to improve my volkner run

And will try to improve my clemont run as well

[haughty haven]

I love this run, and i will never swap them ever https://youtu.be/WgoHZS_J_PE

[azure idol]

They should add a feature to do test runs without resetting smh

We can do this with gauntlet but not here

[forest ferry]

This time offtype runs are actually hard compared to last time

You need minimum 400 str this time compared to 250 last time for 180k

Due to shit conditions

[haughty haven]

But for reward only it seem easier than last time

[forest ferry]

It's not

Budget electric roster is garbage

[haughty haven]

But condition much more favo for fast battle

[forest ferry]

I tried to do budget run and it's a nightmare

What fast battle are you gonna do with BP soph and hau?

[haughty haven]

i saw 200 str already give 3xx k point

Last time it need higher str do be able get all reward

[forest ferry]

200 str with 3 electric units doing fast run
Yes

But budget comps can't do fast runs even at 200 str this time

Also I am talking abt 2 ontype 1 offtype

Aite
Volkner hell is done I think

[azure idol]

@haughty haven

My Hau is non EX

[haughty haven]

But my Clemont is still 2/5

[azure idol]

[haughty haven]

And pls dont talk about Kalos ticket, Serena always jump scare me

[forest ferry]

Serena will help you in fire hs

I need 7k more pts to fix my ticket number

[hardy fog]

so you think HJas would be better here or Bp Clemont?

[forest ferry]

I don't have hjas

If I did
I'd do 450+ str

[hardy fog]

I see

[azure idol]

Hjas needs 2/5

Her clears depend on TM MPR

[hardy fog]

but you do lose the -def

comparing hjas vs clemont

[forest ferry]

You get seun

[hardy fog]

true

[forest ferry]

Elesa sync kills sides anyways

[hardy fog]

your marnie is ex'ed did you sync with her or Zeb

[forest ferry]

Well it's lot of rng with hjas

Coz you reset for TM MPR and some fast track rolls

[azure idol]

Zeb sync better

[forest ferry]

Zeb all the way

My Marnie is also 1/5

Well if my Marnie was 3/5

I'd do single dps

And ditch zekrom vs elesa

Coz zekrom sucks

[hardy fog]

I mean you can always pick up 3/5 Bp Soph for a slight upgrade 😂

[forest ferry]

Zekrom > BP soph

So

[hardy fog]

on poma the 3/5 dmg is better than 1/5 N

[forest ferry]

Yea but I have 3/5 zekrom

[hardy fog]

o you do

[forest ferry]

I was actually using cerena before

But she can only do 400 str coz she's electric weak

If she wasn't electric weak, I'd have ditched zekrom entirely

[sullen pier]

The curse of being a 2020 pokefair

[cyan tusk]

Without 2/5 and 3/5 revamp tiles

[forest ferry]

Str:
600
390
350
620
450

@onyx crystal update when you are free

I am not doing any more runs tdy

[signal needle]

I see u finally caved and did full Electric instead of using some offtyping

[forest ferry]

I caved yesterday itself

Coz all my good offtype units are electric weak

[signal needle]

Do u want to try to swap Volkner and SS Elesa

[forest ferry]

No

Sshau wants volk

[signal needle]

Whys tht

[forest ferry]

Powerplant too expensive to pick

[signal needle]

What

Are u doing cakewalk

Volkner can tank well tho so thats a plus

[forest ferry]

Yes

[signal needle]

For ur Vs Marnie i mean

Cant rely on bp surge

[forest ferry]

Surge is the one tanking pre sync

Post sync volkner can take like 3 hits due to ER3

If I can fish for better rng, I think I can do higher str but I am already done for today

Maybe tmrw I'll try depending on my mood

Resetting for 4 MPRs on surge doesn't sound fun afterall

[signal needle]

Can someone teach me how to do that SST Red Sophocles and Surge tank one

Im thinking of doing tht now

[forest ferry]

Spam eerie impulse on mid till -6, once done with mid, go for sides

Tank with surge

And flinch with soph when you can, if no flinch press x spl def

[signal needle]

U start the game with Surge maxing evasion right?

[forest ferry]

No

[signal needle]

Oh?

[forest ferry]

You just flinch

[signal needle]

So just force flinch two moves

[forest ferry]

Surge living or dying doesn't matter much post sync

He can take some hits pre sync, and that's all you need

If you want him to live, go for evasion buffs after -6ing mid

But it wouldn't change the run much unless you are willing to pray for para procs as well which I didnt

[signal needle]

Ok

[signal needle]

And his grid is nothing special rught? Just Barricade for sp def

[azure idol]

How do you kill sides? Even with screech and lower str they are hard to kill

[signal needle]

And all the HP and Spdef nodes

[forest ferry]

That's why it's just 600 str

[azure idol]

JuSt

[signal needle]

Thts alrdy better than my sst red team

And u score higher than #1 #2 #3 template sst red team which uses bp clemont

[forest ferry]

He went 700 str vs lana in water HS

[warped hedge]

I don't think I can get the maximum, can I?

[forest ferry]

This one sucks coz electric roster is pain

[signal needle]

U need to be familiar with the units at least, we cab definitely build somethibg out

[warped hedge]

I admit I'm not familiar with some

[signal needle]

Also show us ur Electric eggs

[forest ferry]

Eggs suk

Just offtype at that point

[signal needle]

Nah eggs are fine at 200 difficulty with op supports like sonia

[forest ferry]

also why does nobody have lodge elesa

[signal needle]

Just an egg raichu of whatever role is good

[azure idol]

2+1 off type 300 str go

[sturdy matrix]

But offtype cuts your score

[forest ferry]

2+1 offtype needed 400 str for me

I don't recommend unless you have Uber stuff

[azure idol]

For 180k?

[signal needle]

They might not be able to do higher strength with those Levels

[azure idol]

They just need 180k

[sturdy matrix]

With Uber stuffs you can still use electric eggmons regardless

[forest ferry]

My 400 str runs with SSmorty and cerena only net 38k and 36k for me

[azure idol]

Oh...

[sturdy matrix]

Offtype is only worth if your offrype units carries so much that you can bump strength to compensate

[forest ferry]

Actually
It was even less

With 400 str

Offtype is so bad due to how scoring works this time

[outer yew]

The Gauntlet gang slowly come to us
I think at least 3 for them will surpass us

[cyan tusk]

Only if we let them

[sturdy matrix]

I mean better reduce strength and use a filler electric type that pumping up strength to use something like NC Red

[outer yew]

Tbf I don't want to deal with RNG again ahah

[signal needle]

Im seeing

Vs Surge : N + Sophocles + Volkner
Vs Volkner : Marnie + Surge + BP Clemont
Vs Elesa : Elesa + an egg or offtype + Sonia (grid her for paralysis)
Vs Clemont : Hau + MC Pika + SS Elesa
Vs Marnie : BP Soph + Clemont + BP Surge

Someone help add to this

[forest ferry]

N gets no crit buffs in first team

[signal needle]

Just brute force it with terrain

[forest ferry]

N also has shit gauge, so you run him with Sonia or you don't

[azure idol]

Lisia guy at 345k, probably have one more clear to do lmao

[signal needle]

Puyoteyo

[sturdy matrix]

N is self sufficient at 5/5 I guess but less than that it needs at least CRIT support

[signal needle]

Crit is only "necessary" if theres shields

But this is not CS

[sturdy matrix]

Still 1.5x damage

[signal needle]

I wud move bp surge up but then i cant put another team tgt

[forest ferry]

3/5 N's multiplier rely on every mob being paralysed as well

Which pretty much means he's fighting elesa with Sonia

Regardless of how rest of your roster looks

[cyan tusk]

I feel u, waitin for classic elesa to bless us

[outer yew]

[sturdy matrix]

However even if you use classic elesa, the stat rebuff rule won't get much points regardless

[forest ferry]

You'll get 1k pts for every mob that's fully debuffed

[sturdy matrix]

But I think you need to debuff even accuracy and evasion to get 1k

[forest ferry]

Oh yea

[cyan tusk]

Got blessed by palmer today and I was between

• yes finally some luck
• plz leave I want the banner next to u

[outer yew]

Lmao
Wish I had that luck, got nothing today

[azure idol]

You need at least 3/5 to make a difference though

Daily one and candy one is an option I guess

[cyan tusk]

Been getting nothing for weeks

Btw Cynthia guy sniped both of us lmao

[forest ferry]

Me waiting for some madlad to cross 500k

[cyan tusk]

It won’t happen this time, but I do see 430K comfortably, even someone getting 440K

It’s possible with Celesa 3/5 (or 4/5) and 5/5 nemona

Which ofc I do not own

[azure idol]

Not surprised, Cynthia bro has higher score than Cyi

[sturdy matrix]

500k seems unlikely, the rules are much worse this time

Expecially stat debuffs

[cyan tusk]

We did not get 500K neither last hs

It was 460K ish the 1st one

[forest ferry]

Stat debuffs and faster time

Prev one was stat buffs and longer duration iirc

[azure idol]

Was about to say, debuff contradicts the other two

[forest ferry]

I am surprised sshau didn't share banner with celesa

[azure idol]

He's too new

[forest ferry]

Coz they were pretty happy with rerunning lySS for last HS

So was lySS

[azure idol]

Hmm

[cyan tusk]

Also electric is not the best type to get debuffs

And usually moves have low bp which means more attacks

[azure idol]

Real snub is these rerun banners don't give cake coins

[cyan tusk]

We do not have a hyper beam electric shift unit for example imo

I think it’s bc they did not add ex role to CElesa

[atomic hamlet]

wait a minute I busted my ass fishing for 2 tm mpr on elesa and then potionchu is just better lmao

[forest ferry]

Well electric guard Lelesa doesn't get killed even by post sync thunder even at 620 str

So spamming potions gonna be better

[azure idol]

Well @forest ferry 's clear convinced me to switch back to my ol potionchu team lol

[atomic hamlet]

if you have ss elesa saved then you might want to look into this run

[signal needle]

Tried ur team but failed, how did u kill the sides? Sst red dies first to the Rock Slide

[forest ferry]

Flinch

Your soph should still be alive

[signal needle]

Ye with like 5%

Sst red will die to one of the aoe moves and i cudnt flinch both

[cyan tusk]

This looks great btw

[forest ferry]

I think one of em got paralyzed

[atomic hamlet]

(not mine btw lol)

[forest ferry]

Well I don't remember what exactly happened but it was exactly 2 boltackles I needed after SSTred killed mid with sync

[signal needle]

[forest ferry]

And I flinched right side

So yea
Probs para proc

[signal needle]

I retry

[forest ferry]

You can drop a bit more strength

Like 580

If you want to ohko side with boltackle post sync

[outer yew]

Congrats to him

[signal needle]

Im doing 550 at the moment

Oh wair

[azure idol]

Tf is this looks like 1k?

[signal needle]

Sst red Critical Strike 2 right

[forest ferry]

Yep

[signal needle]

I was stubborn not to change it so I shall try that

[atomic hamlet]

tbh idk it's just a screenshot from the current #25

[forest ferry]

Wait
Why is your red not running CS2?

[signal needle]

Why doesnt my Surge has endurance, wudve been great

[forest ferry]

Boltackle has like no multipliers, so it's like full 20% damage increase

[signal needle]

LG players use Vigilance

Lg players are also short on Vigilance cookies

[forest ferry]

Ah
I slack on LGs

Makes sense then

[signal needle]

Leme also 150 my sst red

Full speed ahead

[azure idol]

3 star James wtf is wrong with this guy

[atomic hamlet]

ok rankings are changing ig lol

its this dude

[maiden canopy]

Hmmmm, elek' got dethroned now

[haughty haven]

Why my Volkner never refresh the god damn Electric Terrain ?

Finally give me 1

Do you see Volkner, just give me 1 more Electric Terrain and it so much easy

@forest ferry @cunning shore Nooooo, someone is ruin our family picture

[cunning shore]

This means it's time to go up

[forest ferry]

I can't go up

No NCblue or hjas to push str

[cunning shore]

LAST WORD CLEARRRRRRR
BP Soph > N 2/5
Can't change my mind

I am looking for anyone from here

With this stage using BP soph... i can finally take my damn comfort doing other stages with more expensive teams 🗿

[signal needle]

I cudnt do the Surge team successfully but I did this new high

Volkner tank is sooo good

I tried tanking with TL Elesa and Volkner to see the difference

TL Elesa eating Gyro ball --> 60% health gone
Volkner Electrorepulsion eating Flash cannon --> 20% health gone

[maiden canopy]

Does Elesa and Volkner have Steel Guard?

[forest ferry]

What guard skill recommended for Marnie stage on tank?

[onyx crystal]

<t:1694956620:D> Point Floor/Ceiling Change

[cunning shore]

The pray guard because she hits Seed bomb and crunches randomly

[forest ferry]

[cunning shore]

I would say grass guard, but Crunch will kill too

[forest ferry]

Hmmm guess it's better to just reset for 4 MPRs

Aite
Time to start my suffering

[bold pond]

Can someone help me like last time build teams for this? I just want the rewards I don't care about the medal. These are my electric types.

Worth noting I have my lodge select ticket, so I can make n or Marnie 2/5. I also have enough stuff to add grids as needed (almost 300k orbs) and I have enough to ex pairs as well (like 600+ champion spirits and over 500 5* power ups).

[forest ferry]

Bruh
66 pts to fix ugly number

I think I can improve str for this with better rng

This one only had 2 MPR resets and Volk got flinched last minute

Due to iron head

[bold pond]

Please tag me with a response, thanks

[forest ferry]

You can check the pinned teams for ideas

Since you have a decent limited roster, albeit at 1/5 you can replicate most of the comps

[ornate turret]

tbh just copy any team from the pin because your roster is similar to all the popular comp, just lower move level so just do 200str

[maiden canopy]

Kinda surprised that your Ash and Red are still 1/5 after a year

[ornate turret]

my ash and red are 1/5 too just hit 300k point

[bold pond]

I have dozens of candy I just never know what to do with them.... so I never use them.

[maiden canopy]

Well, you have more units than I have so yeah

[ornate turret]

and you don't have too, it's not like we can't clear any content

[ornate turret]

only nemona and sshau, also at 1/5 and it's a pain to work with, like most of the time 1/5 can't nuke so the rng is worse

[cunning shore]

If 180k is all you're going for, you most likely won't need to use up resources

No Candies or even minimal EXing

[signal needle]

Volk does

[signal needle]

Dark if u want one

[rich mango]

you can try these teams for 180k points:

• vs Surge: SST Red, Sophocles (Togemedaru), Surge (Electrode) ~250 STR
• vs Volkner: Marnie, Sophocles (A. Golem), BP Surge ~150 STR
• vs Elesa: Elesa (Zebstrika), Sonia, H. Jasmine ~200 STR
• vs Clemont: Ash, BP Clemont, SS Elesa ~250 STR
• vs Marnie: NCBlue, Hau (A. Raichu), Clemont? (Heliolisk) ~250 STR

[signal needle]

OP I WAS PRAYING TO GOD FOR VOLKNER PARA PROC

[rich mango]

can probably do at 200 str tbh

[signal needle]

Story here was Kris failed to crit a few syncs so Volkner got to sync twice

And i was 1 movw away from my 4th sync so I prayed that the next Discharge from him is paralysed

It was

[cunning shore]

your pokemons planning your demise. No crit no crit no crit again.

Is Variety Kris a striker?

[bold pond]

Thank you very much! Is there particular grids I should be using for characters like surge and Clemont?

[signal needle]

Tech but in this team shes also the striker

Volkner and Kris are both doing discharge and we are battling it out

[cunning shore]

Out charge each other 🗿

[candid cobalt]

Ahh that was so close

I just did a 530 str clear on Marnie

[azure idol]

I DID IT 1K strength @atomic hamlet

[candid cobalt]

I kinda messed up my quadqueue and Hau's sync didn't crit so Marnie got to sync twice

[cunning shore]

Me procrastinating my Marnie upgrade run because I can't Trust rng rn

[candid cobalt]

But Hau evaded all of Marnie's attacks at the end

The -6 acc finally coming in clutch

[signal needle]

Wheres ur EV Kris going now

[candid cobalt]

Honestly I swear Marnie has Piercing Gaze or smth

[cunning shore]

Jeez and I didn't think that ssHau/NCBlue can get cheaper at 1k lol

[rich mango]

hm try all the fights at 150 STR with your existing grids. that might be enough for 36k average points per fight.
can regrid if you need more points

[cunning shore]

Nah it's just NPC think -6 Accuracy/Evasion is +6

[azure idol]

Strat:
Turn 1 reset for Elesa TM MPR and flinch
Play as usual, Blue sync first, Elesa sync second
Shortly after Marnie sync, Hau sync third
After sync 3 use Elesa TM to ramp, Hau kills center with fairy zone boosted sync 4 and 5. Hau TM can also ramp once in fairy zone

[azure idol]

To the bench

[candid cobalt]

😭

Also the fact that they literally ignore paralysis

I have yet to see paralysis be procced in any of my higher str runs

[signal needle]

Im rank 65 again

[cunning shore]

Ironically they Para at times I don't want them to 😭😂😂

[signal needle]

Every day Im climbing to stay within top 100

[cunning shore]

I think I am at 30s now
I forgot to check after my latest stage lol.

[candid cobalt]

I think I'm dangerously near 500

[signal needle]

Omg i just passed Kei

[candid cobalt]

Even tho I've just passed 276k

I did see a couple familiar faces tho

[maiden canopy]

I'm barely hanging on to top 200

[cunning shore]

Ayeee I see Naomi, Santos JL and Shroomish fan all around me lool

[candid cobalt]

If I could get a 70k point clear I might be higher but I'm too lazy

I've spent way too much time on HS these past few days 😭

[maiden canopy]

I can do the Surge strat with Blaziken's comp, but eh, not sure if it's worth it

[cunning shore]

It's basically the best End game content we've got

[cunning shore]

Patience

[maiden canopy]

Now put in the ranking rewards

[candid cobalt]

It scares me when I realise how many hours I spent resetting Archie's battle last HS

[cunning shore]

Don't remind me

[candid cobalt]

Using a fully offensive team was not a good decision

Especially with Hilbert as the only support

[cunning shore]

Too many RNG runs was not good for my health

[candid cobalt]

Same here

[maiden canopy]

Misty was the most annoying really

[candid cobalt]

I touched Misty once

Never again

[maiden canopy]

Without KriSS, you're gonna suffer against her

[candid cobalt]

I sure love being hit by Blizzard in rain when Misty's at -5 acc

[cunning shore]

[candid cobalt]

I'm surprised my score is higher this time than last HS

[maiden canopy]

Me too

[candid cobalt]

But ig it's cos I have Ash and NC Blue

They absolutely carry 2 stages

[maiden canopy]

You're missing one more

[cunning shore]

They made sure 2 stages counter our boy Red kek

[candid cobalt]

I never pulled on SST Red 😭

Tragic times

At least he might rerun unlike Ash

[cunning shore]

Speaking of reruns, would Varieties ever rerun?

[maiden canopy]

That's for DeNA yo decide

[cunning shore]

What even was the point of variety banners 🗿

[signal needle]

Hi @forest ferry

[candid cobalt]

...semi bait?

[signal needle]

Just did 70K elesa vs elesa by trying new staggering strat

Full health team

So ima push more tmr

[cunning shore]

70k with full health team ouf

I wouldn't be able to resist pushing rn lol

[cunning shore]

I mean it's bait, but like I don't recall how different they are to pokefairs or what not. Just like Alternative mons for same units?

[candid cobalt]

Honestly they're more like semi-units

They don't even strike me as actual units when most are just trainers with Pokemon + kit

No new costume, no sync pair story, nothing

Just a kit

[maiden canopy]

Well, it's always the kit that matters right?

[candid cobalt]

True

But other than that there's not much incentive to them otherwise

[cyan tusk]

Well, well.. this could free my Vkris actually

[haughty haven]

650 STR Surge

[azure idol]

Where to use her though, other stages don't appreciate terrain

[haughty haven]

650 Surge still can pre Sync

But side too fat

[cyan tusk]

But we have another beautiful unit with ET3 called bpclemont

And surge sync is steel, sooo…

[azure idol]

Then you move Red to another stage

It can work I guess

3/5 Kris is busted

[cyan tusk]

Bc she has special atk debuffs

[cyan tusk]

Im actually thinking of not moving him, doing SSTred Vkris Bp Clemont

[azure idol]

AloUnova bonus tho

[cyan tusk]

What if that post sync steel beam actually flinches

[cyan tusk]

Mmmh, fair

[azure idol]

Idk how much difference that bonus makes

[cyan tusk]

I’ll think about smth now that I have a 2 hour flight

[cyan tusk]

I’ll also have a look to swap other stages too, maybe I can think about something for Volkner too bc it’s a stage with very few debuffs

It’s either surge or Volkner bc Clemont is no tech zone and elesa is physical

[main pulsar]

What is this grid

[cyan tusk]

Just ignore the 2 green tiles

[main pulsar]

Gotcha

[cyan tusk]

Correct one I was thinking

@azure idol do you have caked blue?

[azure idol]

No

[atomic hamlet]

very nice :>

[azure idol]

Scroll down a bit for the strat

[cyan tusk]

Impressive score!

[azure idol]

If Elesa grid leg up and LS DC2 it can go further... But the opening reset gets too extreme for me

[cyan tusk]

Since my NCBlue has the 6EX role I’m actually thinking to go for dc2 on hau bc the extra rebuff can make up for the damage loss of cs2

[azure idol]

What extra rebuff?

[atomic hamlet]

my ass said I was gonna phase back on HS but man am I a sucker for getting more optimal

[azure idol]

Oh you mean on the sides?

[cyan tusk]

Yes

[azure idol]

Sides are not concern, Elesa can tank after Blue goes down

Damage on center is very close, I don't recommend removing CS2

[cyan tusk]

Oh ok, thank you

[azure idol]

Power plant is too expensive, don't have enough energy to grid kekwok

[haughty haven]

Why i’m pushing Surge Stage, that Stage is a pain

[cyan tusk]

Yea but also Vkris is hard to squeeze in other clears. Volkner needs both HJasmine and Marnie to tank and kill the mid, elesa is physical so no, Clemont no tech zone, surge is the one remaining but i’’d lose alola points. The only route I see is Sophocles tank actually lmao

Will the sp atk debuffs do well enough? Highly doubt

If I use her on Volkner instead of elesa I loose the unova points and no one is actually getting benefits from et bc marnie only goes power tripping

[azure idol]

Alola points can be annoying sometimes yeah

[proven bough]

For this game mode, is it like CS where the teams have certain things they do. Like “you need to debuff” “you need to paralyze” “you need to…”

[flat sundial]

Could someone help me craft a balanced team of 5 (I know I'm missing one more electric type)

no I'm not going for Lodge elesa

[main pulsar]

Does base surge better

In the soph sstred team

Like can it go higher

[maiden canopy]

And here I am still wondering why people have Ash, but not Red

[proven bough]

|| People prob have em more if they watched the show ||

[main pulsar]

I did

I have both

[haughty haven]

<-No Ash Owner

[main pulsar]

Ur a Hjas and blue owner

Good tradeoff

[long oyster]

How does the SST Red, Sophocles, Surge run go against Surge ?
Is Red tanking

[flat sundial]

you're asking why people couldn't pity on two different masterfairs

[main pulsar]

Yes I did that

[haughty haven]

Hell no

[bold pond]

Thank you for the help! I was able to clear it.

[long oyster]

Is it Surge...?

[main pulsar]

How high does base surge go

Str wise

Need the number before I bang my head against that wall

[azure idol]

Blaze did 600

[stray comet]

Is there a list of good teams like there was last time yet?

[main pulsar]

Ooookay then

[proven bough]

Is it alright if I don’t have a support each team

[main pulsar]

It is higher

Well

Time to die

🫠

[proven bough]

I only have 1 support I think for on type lmao

[main pulsar]

Sonia bpclemont elessa lesesa and bpsurgr

All f2p

[proven bough]

Oh shit

I’m sorry, which one am I missing

[cyan tusk]

Do we happen to have the Twitter of the aura Cynthia guy?

[main pulsar]

Have you seriously never gotten ss elesa once?

That’s crazy

[stray comet]

Rip, bad luck

[main pulsar]

Ur also missing bp clem

And surge

[stray comet]

It took me until a few months ago to get Volkner

[maiden canopy]

Tell that to my Hilbert

[main pulsar]

I mean it took me a year to get one and another to 4/5 my sonia but I do have her

[maiden canopy]

Bastard eluded me for over a year now

And I still only have 1/5

[main pulsar]

That’s nuts

[stray comet]

I still only have Elio at 1/5

I honestly thought he was a story pair

[maiden canopy]

How many years?

[stray comet]

Well I only started playing back in January

But it's getting closer to a year

[main pulsar]

Weak

I didn’t get darach for I think 2 years?

[stray comet]

oh my god

I only got Bea a few weeks ago

[bold pond]

My masked royal is only 1/5 and I have been playing since launch

[main pulsar]

That’s craaaaazy

How many breaks though

[stray comet]

I honest to god thought she and Gordie were limited pairs

[main pulsar]

[bold pond]

I can't bring myself to use alola tickets when he is literally all I need.

So it's just 5* power ups

[main pulsar]

Look at him

Look at the boy darach

[proven bough]

Never bruh, it really is crazy. I’m free to play with 226 pairs, but never got her.

[stray comet]

Flashback to one CS round several months ago that was electric weak that I was having trouble beating and literally everyone kept asking if I had Volkner

[main pulsar]

See how close he is to nemona

[stray comet]

Oh my god

[bold pond]

Why is Helena 3* and 1/5?

[main pulsar]

I’m never gonna use her so I didn’t touch any of her stuff

Though I guess high score happening now

So that’s not true anymore

[atomic rain]

volkner basically countered siebold by himself

good paralysis proc chance is all you need

[full lark]

Fix that on her rerun. Always get the stuff for free pairs

[stray comet]

Was it Siebold?

[atomic rain]

electric weak siebold has healthy advantage and a few months would coincide with february which was kalos

[stray comet]

Oh no it wasn't in February

It was like May

[main pulsar]

It’s 20 3* powerups

Not the biggest deal in the world

[atomic rain]

20 3* power ups you could use somewhere else

[main pulsar]

I suppose

[stray comet]

Oh nevermind it was in June

Btw do yall think that I can do this High Score with this roster?

[full lark]

Can almost certainly get all the point rewards

[stray comet]

Nice!!!

[atomic hamlet]

so i'm in a very awkward position where I am out of 3* deluxe cookies and I cannot fish for the head start 1 ramp

but I have adrenaline 1 instead lol

[cunning shore]

No don't tell me I can improve surge I refuse to redo it pls stop

[main pulsar]

Does hostile environment increase full para chance

[cunning shore]

No

[full lark]

It doesn’t affect Paralysis after it’s been applied, but it increases the chance of inflicting it

[cunning shore]

Yes

[main pulsar]

Mk

Useless then

Feels bad

[cunning shore]

[main pulsar]

If surge gets off a single swift

I die

Red cannot survive it

[cunning shore]

May RNGesus bless you

[main pulsar]

Thenk you

[forest ferry]

Str:
600
390
350
620
470

Last update for this event, ain't doing any more runs coz I fixed the ugly number unless I somehow lucksacc NCblue before event ends

@onyx crystal update when you are free

[main pulsar]

I request

That they stop making fucking no healing condition stage

🫠

[cunning shore]

How does this clemont run go

[forest ferry]

Electric guard Lelesa

Pray mob doesn't buff x spl atk

[cunning shore]

Rip

[forest ferry]

That's about it

[cunning shore]

My run 73k with Nemona instead of Potionchu

[forest ferry]

If you don't run electric guard, you can still do 580 str

Ye
580 str is less score

[cunning shore]

I don't recall what lucky skill i have on my lelesa

Le moi check

[maiden canopy]

Hmmmm, I'm surprised I'm still in the top 200

[cunning shore]

Tbh, I got pushed down further the higher I went up. It's like there is a gap somewhere where ranks change a lot

[maiden canopy]

I really do hope I can stay in the top 1k

[atomic rain]

you went from tryhard zone to sweat zone

[cunning shore]

I feel like top 100 shuffle around
Below there is a bit slow then back again at like 500s new people come in

(This is an Example, not a fact)

[atomic rain]

meanwhile my ass barely got 180k and doesnt even have 15 raised electrics

[cunning shore]

Most important is 180k tbh

The rest is for fun

[maiden canopy]

There are 4 of the people in this server on the top 10

[cunning shore]

So far

That number might increase or decrease

[maiden canopy]

Let's see if Elek can further increase his/her score

[forest ferry]

Runner and most other still haven't started

[cunning shore]

Yeah Runner Last event took 1st

[cunning shore]

Idk how I am going to even attempt to increase my BPsoph team anymore

Then I see room in Marnie and Surge stages
Ughhhh why.

[main pulsar]

I was so close

🫠

I can’t believe unyielding needs to proc

[forest ferry]

I can't improve anymore unless I roll celesa or NCblue

[main pulsar]

I’m in a similar boat

[cunning shore]

Celesa = automatic 10k more score atleast lmao

[forest ferry]

Tho celesa is probs bigger improvement than NCblue

Coz NCblue would only be 1/5 even if I get him

And 1/5 NCblue only slightly better than BP surge on setup

[cunning shore]

Yeah, Celesa would be more beneficial at 1/5 for this event

Omni-debuffs too good

[forest ferry]

Might roll celesa banner after I pity NCred

[main pulsar]

The healing though

[forest ferry]

I was resetting to remain full HP pre sync

[main pulsar]

If I get blue I’m 3/5 him instant

[forest ferry]

Surf destroys me anyways

[main pulsar]

To thank him for showing up

If

[cunning shore]

His best usage in his most used stage is not heals though

😄

[forest ferry]

Surf does 1k damage minimum at 500 str

So 1/5 NCblue isnt letting me tank that

[main pulsar]

Da fuq no?

[forest ferry]

Oh wait

He also buffs spl def

[main pulsar]

I tanked it for 400ish damage

[forest ferry]

I am dumb

[cunning shore]

he buffs defenses

[forest ferry]

Means I should gamble NCblue

[cunning shore]

But still you willl struggle vs Surf

[main pulsar]

And I have freakin bp surge

[forest ferry]

As long as I can tank surf, it's ez lol

[forest ferry]

Sshau damage is dummy good

[main pulsar]

See this run

I was able to tank surf, I die after cuz no heal but it doesn’t do 1k

[forest ferry]

You are using clemont to debuff spl atk

[main pulsar]

He

Has that?

[forest ferry]

......you didn't know?

[maiden canopy]

Satisfied Snarl 2 on Electroweb

[main pulsar]

Yeah I’m not using that

So irrelevant

[forest ferry]

That's the only reason to use him tho

[main pulsar]

No?

You slap her

Give her the bi-

Family friendly mode on

But anyway accuracy drops

Those are the big money makers

[forest ferry]

Oh yea
Ash also has 20% team mitigation

Vs spl atk

[main pulsar]

O tru

Flag bear should be good enough me thinks

You just need some ho

Then heal

[signal needle]

Phew

[main pulsar]

I wish red had endure

Reeeee

[forest ferry]

If he had endure, you'd be malding over flinch

Rockslide moment

[main pulsar]

Tru

[signal needle]

Wow

Ss Elesa champing Lt Surge

[main pulsar]

@haughty haven I have joined you in suffering

[signal needle]

Now u must do something about the middle 3 cus that doesnt look balanced at al

[main pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/spheal-excited-pokemon-clapping-laugh-gif-11177320

Spheal of commiseration

[signal needle]

Yes

This is the high roll you are looking for before their 1st sync. My surge dodged twice so he can eat the sync and then eat the next move

Mind u tho i kept failing this do i didnt so it in the end, but someone out there was lucky enuf to get 75K

[main pulsar]

Wait what

Ur red lives those?

Mine doesn’t

[forest ferry]

You used Eterrain when terrain was already up

Skill issue

[signal needle]

Me?

[forest ferry]

You should squeeze in as much boltackle as possible

Yes

[main pulsar]

How does you live

[signal needle]

Nah u dont see the blinking that started 1 turn before this

[main pulsar]

Tell me ur secrets

[haughty haven]

1/5 Marnie, 1/5 N, No Ash, that all i can do for 3 mid stage

[forest ferry]

Blinking doesn't matter

[haughty haven]

[forest ferry]

You only use terrain when boltackle isn't actually available

That's how you retain terrain as much as possible

[main pulsar]

No really do you live this?

Ur sstred

[signal needle]

Sst red always lives

[main pulsar]

How

[signal needle]

[forest ferry]

Yes
He lives

[main pulsar]

When I get swift

My red die

[signal needle]

Are u using some sort of 37000 difficulty

[main pulsar]

No

Same as you

[signal needle]

What

[main pulsar]

What I mean is

[signal needle]

I didnt even show my difficulty

[main pulsar]

When I get swift

The sync kills

Every time

Ur not doing 600?

[signal needle]

Unless ur sst red is lvl1 i dont get it

[forest ferry]

That's why you reset for swiftless run

[haughty haven]

What str

[signal needle]

Less than that

[main pulsar]

Ah okay

[signal needle]

Blaz did 600

[forest ferry]

Actually I think SSTred tanks even after 1 Swift

I am not resetting again to confirm

[signal needle]

Ye the swift thats -6 special attack is nothing

[main pulsar]

I tried so many time

Every swift was a reset

[haughty haven]

At my 650 str run, with no SpDef buff and no SpA drop, my Red still live 70% with shield when eat swift

[forest ferry]

He tanks as far as like 620 str

The problem was damage

[main pulsar]

You have shield tho

[signal needle]

What shield

[main pulsar]

Nemona

[signal needle]

Light screen?

Oh duh

[haughty haven]

Full health to 10%

[main pulsar]

Wild

[signal needle]

Ye my team is TL Elesa based

Red can live with just +4 spdef

+4

[main pulsar]

I’m doing the masochist surge soph run

[forest ferry]

I actually think celesa can replace OGsurge if you are madman enuff

[haughty haven]

My team can pre Sync Surge even at 650Str

But that mean i debuff less

[signal needle]

This shall be the furthest i'll go

[main pulsar]

I need blue

So bad

Please sue

[signal needle]

Thats a waste

[main pulsar]

Do you want me in my hands and knees

Is that it

[signal needle]

C elesa is needed in Vs Elesa if u have her

[main pulsar]

I’ll sing a damn song

I do whatever it takes

My madness is leaking out

[forest ferry]

Oh yea

[signal needle]

The stage ezplicitly asks u to debuff Elesa attack and theres one unit that can do it

[forest ferry]

Elesa stage

[main pulsar]

Use lucky skill to reduce attack

[signal needle]

And thats actually how my Sonia tanks the onslaught of attacks in post sync

[main pulsar]

[forest ferry]

I had to grid HE1 boltstrike for that

[signal needle]

??? Electric guard?

[main pulsar]

Also technically ncblue does it too

[forest ferry]

Coz budget electric units have ass para chance

[haughty haven]

Elesa: Try this
1 Quick Atk and your tank almost die

[signal needle]

Oh yes

[main pulsar]

Isn’t there a defense crush equivalent for attack?

[main pulsar]

Try this on

[signal needle]

Not lucky skill

[main pulsar]

Death

[main pulsar]

Oh my mistake

[haughty haven]

Try this on

Wild Charge into your Tank

[signal needle]

I wanna reset my entire streak and just bring 3 Wild Charge units into Vs Elesa

[forest ferry]

HE1 boltstrike loses like 3 sync tiles
Celesa would be amazing

[signal needle]

YOU WANT TO TRY ISIT?

[main pulsar]

madness

this event is good at doing this to people

[signal needle]

Its fine

Legendary Gauntlet does that better

[forest ferry]

Actually
I'll try to roll NCleaf after NCred for fire hs

Instead of clowning electric units

[stray comet]

Which round should I use N for?

[signal needle]

"After NC red"

[forest ferry]

I doubt getting 25k pts with existing banner units

[forest ferry]

Game hates me

[main pulsar]

cope

leaf took me outside and beat teh shit out of me

[signal needle]

Dont worry the fire hs comes with a double banner featuring SS May and SS Hilda

[main pulsar]

red just punched me

[signal needle]

Trust

[main pulsar]

translation leaf i had to pity

and red was 330

[signal needle]

Or maybe they can do some sort of
Rock plus Ground HS

Fire grass is boring

[main pulsar]

yeah they have to combine some types

also i dotn think grass would be that boring

[forest ferry]

They aren't going to combine

[main pulsar]

cuz some people have victor and some people dont

[stray comet]

I got NC Blue first try but I had to pity for NC Red

[main pulsar]

[signal needle]

Ramos participation award

[forest ferry]

Electric was garbage roster 2 months ago

[main pulsar]

wut

[forest ferry]

They immediately released 3 limited units

[main pulsar]

i dont have sshau buti had rats

[signal needle]

Which is the 3rd

[main pulsar]

hau blue nemona

i think

[forest ferry]

Yep

[signal needle]

Oh that

[main pulsar]

but like

[forest ferry]

Next is probs grass realistically

[main pulsar]

rats still dominate

[signal needle]

Well they just dropped a bunch of poison

Lets do Poison HS

[main pulsar]

breh

[forest ferry]

Poison probs get 2 busted tanks and they'll do poison HS

[signal needle]

Like what

Support Nihilego

[main pulsar]

another crobat

because memes

[forest ferry]

Shiny naganadel

[stray comet]

That'd be sick

[main pulsar]

but yeah i dont htink electri c was actually bad before the 3

however

poison IS actually that bad

[stray comet]

Who should I use N for?

[main pulsar]

so dont hurt us

[forest ferry]

Electric only had the ugly rats and Vkris

[main pulsar]

[forest ferry]

Other electric units were underwhelming

[signal needle]

Vs Elesa or Clem

[main pulsar]

the rats are beautiful

[stray comet]

I see he is good on Lt. Surge, Elesa, or Clem

[main pulsar]

celesa was always solid

[haughty haven]

SS Hau seem good

[forest ferry]

Most typings are also in similar state

I am talking abt before sshau

[main pulsar]

hjasmine was always solid as well

marnie was not amazing but like they gave us dark weak so thats nice

[forest ferry]

Shes fine

But hjas is reset hell

[main pulsar]

shes a good unit i mean

like there were some very good electric units

pre the 3 dump

[forest ferry]

So does poison

Poison had Emma, naganadel, Vagatha

[main pulsar]

poison has ONLY limited units though

[haughty haven]

<- 1/5 HJamine owner dont worry about mpr

[forest ferry]

Wdym

[main pulsar]

you forgot oleana btw

[forest ferry]

Are you telling me hjas is not limited?

Oleana is recent

[main pulsar]

she is limited

[forest ferry]

That's why I didn't mention

Incase next HS is poison

[main pulsar]

how is vagatha less limited than oleana

if anything less people have her

[forest ferry]

They all are limited

Is my point

They release limited units to "fix" typings

[main pulsar]

i guess

[forest ferry]

Electric is just garbage if you don't factor limited units

Only Sonia and elesa are decent

[main pulsar]

volkner is good

[forest ferry]

And Sonia isn't even that good in current hs

[main pulsar]

its just terrain is getting screwed over this event

bp clemont seems tobe a surprise standout

[forest ferry]

Volkner is also not used even in terrain stages

When you have limited units

[main pulsar]

togedemaru is also just flinch city

well yeah if you havbe limited unit use limited?

my point is that we have some solid electric units

[atomic rain]

theres like 5

[haughty haven]

Togedemaru is Wave

[main pulsar]

what is a wave

[atomic rain]

compared to almost everything in water being usable even eggmons

[forest ferry]

Ig if volkner is standard for solid
Ig all types are fine

[atomic rain]

electric hs is so much more restrictive

[signal needle]

OG Surge in a 75K team means hes Op

[main pulsar]

[forest ferry]

Poison has all the atk debuffers and poison inflictors

Clearly superior typing to electric
