#Damage Challenge
1 messages · Page 47 of 1
Ok that double rebuff is basically field
And what about Red?
He needs to use it 3 times
For max Smarty Pants
3 vs 2 isnt a big ddiference.
Red sync is doing triple damage because its AoE
Adaman's sync has tech stuff along with ludicrous multipliers
Adaman's nuke alone does more than EXR Mix Red
Without strike EXR
This will be the 1st time that a single target unit will be optimal for AOE (and definitely the best "more than 0% F2P" option)
we aready have comparisons for this
Lucas didnt do better in Dragon 3v3 than SS Serena or SS Cynthia.
and Mix Red is better than them thanks to Field + -6 SpDef debuffs + extend range move
Lucas has weak multipliers
? he has ~160% or so total, a bit more than Adaman
At least F2P Grass should have SS Erika, just treating her Sunny Day charges like it was Grassy Terrain
Inertia
The more user’s Speed is raised, the more it powers up the user’s sync move.
Brain Sync 2
Powers up the user’s sync move when its Sp. Atk is raised.
Draconic Sync 4
Powers up the user’s sync move when the zone is a Dragon Zone.
Don't know if Brendan or even selene will nuke harder than Erika for aoe
Erika has SEUN on Sunny Day
I'm pretty sure Mix Red will beat Adaman if you have Redlax
Triple grass is in September so I can get a strike cake to give to mix red
But if Adaman has an EXR, then I'm certain he'll beat Mix Red no matter what
Sadly no grassy terrain unit can paralyze
Adaman will beat Mix Red in 3v3 Grass if he gets Strike .. Field is debatable, it would be close. Not sure who wins, might be Adaman barely
with Support or Sprint - probably not
I'd probably still pick Brendan for AoE since he can cover his own offensive buffing by himself (except for Speed for Inertia)
Field ensures that you won't need SS Acerola
Actually, field or strike will be the best for him
What was the highest score for Fighting 3v1 and for Psychic 3v1 ? Did either one break 3,5M ?
Fighting maybe yes. Psychic I don't think so
I heard the rank 1 Fighting 3v1 was really high (3,5M ?), but havent seen any video or screenshot for that

oh hmm.
rock gets gorrdie
the fairymulti one will have to be NY Lisia gaming.
with a big giga impact nuke at the end for points
guess i have to nnnot use penny here.
or just use BP Barry all the way
Shit I don't have anything for single ghost 
- Redlax maybe hrm
I'm not too sure with ghost, likely going to be SSR Cynthia since easier to setup.
Is there any damage spreadsheet, where DC Wally is included? I'm curious about his performance in comparison to Nate in 3v1 dc
But who will u use with SS acerola? Corless?
you can check the pins.
I think DC wally will be a pretty solid f2p option
The fact that it can paralyze definitely is a plus
Not sure if paired with Nate it will outnuke him
I thought about him with SC Steven and Melony
Same, sadly Helena doesn't have 6ex, but maybe she's still one of the best f2p options regardless
That or allister I guess
The fact that Helena can paralyze is nice, but smarty pants is pretty annoying to setup
Allister has poison that isn't optimal, but at least works with sing spam
adam got 3.4 mil in fighting st. Keep in mind tho, chop essentially had every multiplier possible for st
zone, double rebuff, double circle, 20% from Bianca passive , 200% multiplier
oh and def drops
so 3.4M was the highest for Fighting 3v1 ?
Jacq highest was also 3.4M+
However Hop will get Support role, so it should go up a bit
Any link for that clear?
These Fighting/Psychic results for 3v1 probably wont be topped. Not even by Adaman (even if he gets Field) or SST Red
no, adam said he will post the details later
is f2p solgaleo better than 3/5 exr rose for this challenge?
interesting that it seems to be the case lol
there isn't any reason why solgaleo should be better
definitely not
Unless you are using rose wrong
solgal highest is 1.3 mil
rose is 2.5 mil
nice, just didnt c rose teams in the sheet or im blind lol but ill look it up and do it with rose ty
there isn't a rose team in the doc yet, just must not be on recording
fair, thats why i was surprised seeing no rose but solgaleo reaching a mil lol
didnt make sense so thought id double ask before wasting my time xD
so thx for your help folks :v
There's a doc?
ohh, gotcha
the dc doc is generally less used and well known than ub doc
so less clears are posted there
got my selene up to 1.3m with two costly missed crits in the last minute of the run, idc enough to optimize further lol
I'd like to try contributing to it sometime
some phones also can't record and run dc properly without suffering
so a lot of clears aren't posted there
which means the few videos in there get more views 
easy farm
real
gonna give Grimsley's another attempt
it helps that i take a break from gauntlet anyway
speaking of... I should upload my clear to add it to your doc and my doc
someone ought to tell that camper boy that he doesn't have On a Roll 9 on Crunch
I DID IT
AND ON VIDEO
this was beyond difficult. My heart is beating so fast
Selene doesn't sync for zone in that team?
not needed
makes a helluva lot more sense, but I wanted to see if every Steel-type DPS I had could make it to 1M. I recorded and uploaded most of them, save for Rose. And now Grimsley is part of that
I submitted the run
back to gauntlet I go!
I have 1/5 rose. What unit can i use so i can spm iron head?
use solgaleo
1/5 rose doesnt do shit here
congrats!
Thank you ^^
For the current Damage Challenge, what strategy should I use? I unfortunately don't have Red/Snorlax. I have SC Steven, but his animations are too long. I guess Rose should be my damage dealer, because I have his EX Role unlocked. Should I focus on Syncs, or should I also spam Iron Head? For the latter, I'd need a way to deal with gauge issues.
if you're determined to use Rose, maybe save Iron Head for the last few seconds of the match because on the off chance you land a flinch, it takes valuable time
As for who to pair with, a team of BP Barry, Rose, and SC Steven will work
Finally
Nice work!
thanks, too much rng tho
"Determined" to use Rose? Is there a better option I have?
Trust me, I heard that 🥹
I see you have 4/5 Colress and 2/5 SC Selene. If you can EX Colress, he is capable of hitting 1M with a team of BP Barry and SC Selene
I can't EX Colress before this challenge is over. What composition can I use instead?
Then, I'm afraid your options are very slim. My last resort would've been Solgaleo, but since you cannot EX anyone before the challenge is over, I can't think of any good solutions
the issue with that is Colress needs physical attack buffs
But is Rose really not good for this? Shouldn't the Tech EXR boost his AOE Sync Move enough?
unless that 600k is already factoring in neutral attack
not enough to reach 1M, sadly. That's why nukes are very valuable in this mode
no Steel-type strikers?
This is what I have currently
With Marnie and Barry u should be able to get 900k iirc
I feel like poppy could be good
Poppy is good
using Grimsley with others u should get a lot more
Rose, BP Barry, and SC Selene should do the job
Ofc you need 3/5
I do have her sprint exr and also tech role for rose
Poppy rose and Gloria are the Better options (at the proper levels)
@icy pendant you have a team
sorry I keep bugging you on that 
I mean at least I figured out how to do bug one before
You have a pretty good Steel-type roster. Poppy, Rose, or Gloria can easily net you 1M
yeah wait where did my submission go @vernal condor? not in the data, not in pending
It's 100% worse than my score with the same team and less investment
so i didn't keep it
mm fair
I just used nc blue melony sc selene and was destroyed by missed crits
I feel like Gloria would need 5/5 though bc of the grid expansion
But I'm more confident in rose and poppy
Fair, my sc selene isn't good enough yet
if you wanna try again, with +6E you can do this
yeah I was looking at that or grabbing top sync power node but there's no good way to get there
Rose's Haymaker and Steel DF Sync-up 5 will be your go-tos. SC Selene can provide Steel Zone, which makes things much easier. And BP Barry can run through sync countdown
You can also try subbing in Colress for Barry in order to get Defense drops
Maybe could pinch her from the tier scout paid gem when it rolls around
For tier a, b, c whichever one she's in
I forgot what pairs were in it tbf
only seasonals
Then I might take winter sycamore for the grass debuff
I'll have to see who I need tbh
Or p!marnie
yeah immediate nearly 1.6 million with a noticeable missed crit thanks maelmc
compared to my run you have +25 sync power and head start
and super powered? dont remember if you had that
nah cs2
well 25 sync power is still something
there's can I do more and do I care to do more which unfortunately have different answers
i didnt crit avalugg on my last sync in my run
I remember there's a guide for using solgaleo, red, and colress
But it's not in English for 1M
oh wait 1.6 is worth submitting to the doc now isn't it
yes
fine I'll actually get 1.6 then
Adept do you have any of the units I have
Who should I pair 3/5 EXR Rose with for max damage? Colress and?
Steel units I should clarify
tbf you can just check where they click
doesnt matter that it's in english or not
Yeah it's not about the moves, it's more of the lucky skills
cs2 solgaleo, head start the other 2 probably
I check the pins... but then someone crazy decides to use accelgor as an evasion tank instead of a regular sleeper and number rise
or super powered solgaleo
so that's why i'm asking if anything special like that here
Barry with roserade, redlax, Mallory, NC!rosa as some ideas
no lol
unfortunately we are very polarized on what steel units we've invested in, you've invested in all the ones I haven't and I've invested in all the ones you haven't

you don't need colress with a 4/5 poppy, maybe you have something better
Poppy can do everything Colress does.
Any Steel zone setter is better than Colress.
Well I've used both V. Thorton and Colress
If you use 3/5 Poppy then you don't need Colress
Well, I used 5/5 Gloria
That's why I was reply to someone
Colress can go with Gloria, Rose, Solgaleo... But not Poppy
Since Poppy can do everything Colress does then its better to use Steel zone or Steel rebuff to make Poppy do more dmg.
Poppy is slower than colress at his job tbh
More text popup
1M more dmg is worth it
who's the third anyway

What shall be my best rock team for single rock DC?
Definitely NC silver
My Silver is 1/5 so ig Gordie is my best pick
Alright
You can put them together in the same team.
It'll need to be tested first but sometimes paralysis + sleep is not the best strategy if you can get more value from other team building.
the rank 1 result right now was done with Gloria, right ?
Probably
We don't know. I've seen 3M Poppy too but I don't know if that run could be improved or not.
https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMasters/comments/1enudxp/please_allow_me_to_enjoy_this_1st_place_for_the_5/?share_id=roAkVhjxE91FCBznbrNw5&utm_content=1&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1 @icy pendant this you? if so do you mind the run again and record it, and if not well we like free pings 
that is not, thank you for the free ping
my gloria is remarkably not 0/5 but also not 5/5
I only have a reddit account to flex my world record speedrun in r/splatoon lol
yeah i know you make splatoon stuff and their real username is ink_addict so i figured it really could be you
like come on
oh well they're doing a better job at being me than I am
lol
But its definitely Gloria or Poppy, right ? Not Rose?
Yes not Rose. One of his sync multipliers rely on damage field really hurt him.
Imagine if it's not the case so he could've always spam 2.5x sync.
Ok, recalcing for 3v3 grass team, with the team I'm using, Mix Red barely beats Adaman assuming you have Redlax on the team
If Adaman can do -6 defense, then he beats Mix Red no matter what
can't he though with enfeeble 2 or not enough energy?
Not enough
I don't think Adaman would get ex striker sadly.
I really wanna give candies to poppy to try 3m run but with anni coming I only have 2 striker candies
+25 sync move damage is better than Enfeeble 2
oh 5/5 adaman can
i think adaman gets sprint and irida field, that would make sense
Its enough
needs 5/5 adaman but yeah
barely
Ah, right, I forgot he can infinitely reapply sun
oh wait left side
So no need for Drought Alert
so yeah he can do it
But I still dont believe he can beat Mix Red in 3v3 (as he is now, without EXR). We'll see
What field effect buffs flying again? Sandstorm?
flying zone and that's it
Adam did the clear, almost 2.5m
If Adaman is without strike or sprint EXR, then Mix Red wins
Or field actually
still Adaman being competitive in a 3v3 dc as is looks really good for st
Strike/Sprint/Field are the best possible options for him
Field enables you to bring a SEUN unit
Every types only have 1 WTZ to buff its dmg inherently. Like hail doesn't buff ice type unless they have multiplier about it.
That depends on the team
And funnily in DC I'm thinking Hail less ice type team would actually be stronger.
ST fire will be really conflicting
how so? ST fire is 100% NC Leaf
Gordie/NC Leaf/Melony
ss may hits harder
probably with NC BLue for debuffs
especially when leaf is used as an enabler
I'm thinking of Redlax/NC Leaf/Chase
there is no way SS may syncs harder than NC Leaf, given that Leaf has her own sun and -2 rebuffs
How fast is Leer spam?
SS May has an entire extra multiplier
It's only a question of fully setting it up
How can she fully set up her innate, Inertia and Cakewalk?
it's defense and speed which leaf sets up
leaf can't drop speed
leaf may is actually going to cook for fire st
you cannot beat compressing sun and -2 rebuff (AND support sync) into 1 unit
both of them then 
leaf also burns which lets you run slot 3 as a sing user potentially
gordie can burn and sets 2x fire rebuff
gordie burns on reactive passive though
Just like Chase
but chase has evasion
Chase/blue + Melony + NC Leaf my comp for Fire 3v1
If epeen strat with V. Thorton/Gloria/Colress worked here, I'm gonna do the same for ST fire
May does have speed down, and it helps in stalling the enemy so yeah
fire st is actually going to be the first type where I can actually try everything so that I am looking forward to
Rebuff caps at -3. Iirc -2 is 1.5x and -3 is 1.6x, so another rebuff is not really impactful to NC Leaf.
NC Blue has 20% sync boost passive, and Chase has 40% sync boost circle. They'll be more impactful.
What's your team here?
I guess +4 and +6 attack buff makes little difference?
tm mpr is a kind of adrenaline too
How do you buff her spe to max? I've checked her kit and it seem she only buff +2 on entry or am I missing something?
if only Anni N had EX R....
NC Leaf + Anni N + sync rusher*
Gloria also has a possible option there 
Striker to fix his stats and double down on the expand reach gimmick 
Prob not. AltGloira can be the best in Flying is bc she has insane -cd passive in flying mode.
Her fire mode doesn't have that.
alt gloria just as a sync accelerator though seems interesting
I don't know if that's anything more than "interesting" though
her Fire has simple things:
- Haymaker + Brawn Sync 5, Innate is simply having Rebuff
- Soften Up (4/5)
- MAX Double Down 5 + MAX Super Preparation
- make her the main target with +2 Evasion
NC Leaf as partner for first sync is most what she needs 
this is just for ST, of course
Oh I'm sure AltGloria can do 1M, but just not sure if she can be the top.
nc leaf demanding the least out of her teammates is definitely attractive though
NC Leaf can do Chase + Red and spam herself ig
Leer has "delay" penalty sadly
Well if the dmg output is higher, the penalty doesn't matter.
SS Cyrus also has slower spam than Melony, but he becomes the better spammer for NC Marnie in the end.

ss cyrus' spam is still faster than leer spam
Hmm rock
leer penality is just very slow
Planning on going with this for dc(sc Steven is only 1/5)
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
should I swap sc Steven with redlax and go elio instead of barry?
Man id like to use melony but shes too fast, my points constantly get left at 0
anyone have a Rose clear? i dont have pal Marnie and the rest of my limited steel types are not 3/5
I don't see Rose anywhere on the Challenge Clears doc... does that mean he's just no good for this, even multitarget?
haha someone asked basically the same thing
adam got 2.5 mil with rose but he doesn't post the details on doc
https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMasters/comments/1eoyw0f/23m_steel_challenge_with_rose_and_bianca/
Reddit has this. Not 2.5M but 2.3M.
great thank you!
Try the usual Colress + Red Ig
Oh i dont have Thorton :(
I did and I got 900k max. Just gotta get lucky with crits i guess
W
You can try Elio instead of Colress. He's faster and doesn't have gauge issue like Melony. Just rmb to paralyze the opponent by Red turn 1 then spam Elio's sing.
Damn, I'm at master 16, I guess I got pretty lucky with my run huh?
Sprint isn't great for a damage dealer
Field will be overall the best, strike will make him devastating for 3v3
Support and sprint are the saddest options
strike adaman would be big funny
For st field will be funny too
i'm of the opinion they'll give adaman field and irida sprint however
I'm fine with adamant getting field
Done and dusted, had a lot of spare field candies for selene
@crude sandal when you did calcs with adaman, who were his partners
i think this team has some serious arguments 
would this be a good grid for gladion for fairy run?
if you go all the way there for sde2 you might as well pick overpower
to save time you might want to do that tho, that way you only fleur cannon once on each opp and that's it. Your 1st sync with him will be weaker but it's the 1st sync it's fine
Aren't spatt debuffs needed only for the b move?
Isn't the sync multiplier brain power?
yeah, and speedster sync too
You just want the opponents -6 by the end of the battle
Don't know if super syncer is worth over a sync tile
SS Acerola and Melony
Who paralyzes then?
Sadly unless you are mix red, grassy terrain is unviable
Why don't we have a GT Stun Spore unit 
Greta has spore so not really useful
I mean you can do SS Acerola + Colress. The spam would be slightly slower but you have the spam
Yes but you lose an extra support ex, and is slower
I mean, it helps to complete the defense drops for Adaman
Plus SS acerola wants second sync
1st sync is too soon, and grassy terrain won't last enough
i wouldn't say gt stun spore is viable for dc when you have to deal with gt regen bc stun spore is grass
maybe for melony setup
I mean you use it once then sing spam
yeah i didn't get it until a second after i hit enter lol
What are the stages where there's potential to go to 5M+?
it wouldnt be good
stun spore would heal you, wasting even more time
Like I said, you click it only once, then you spam wit melony
The problem with current gt setters is that none can paralyze and melony can't spam without a statused opponent
We don't need a gt spammer, just a gt that can enable spam
Sing is normal so it won't heal in gt
Anyone?
#1255888121648644197 message
A gt unit with either sing or stun spore should be fine
If it has both even better
I wonder if gordie will do good against barry, since its a solo rock challenge, so rock sync nukes are welcome
Gordie will be the f2p option
Sing/Sleep Powder and Stun Spore
It's hard to tell until we see the performance really.
But considering the current top score, the only possible options are tech + ex striker or striker + field (interchangeable).
Sleep powder is useless
or maybe ss diantha
That's the premium one
Oh yeah
fuel economy sleep powder trust
For premium Paulo would get 1M too, just not the top. Maybe LSteven too.
You don't want sleep powder in grassy terrain
ah i thought the conv moved from grassy terrain lol
Im checking her grid for 3/5, cuz that's how mine it is for now
At this point fuel economy stun spore is already Enough if you aren't on grassy terrain
her sync move multipliers are cakewalk and scholar's sync
true fuel economy stun spore is better
Should be enough if exr, but you will have to pray for those crits
Fuel economy thunder wave is even better because it works even in grassy terrain
true,though she does gets honing hit 9
But not soften up
Fuel economy Sing
Fuel economy 2 thunder wave
who can reduce speed with a status move? cuz her rock tomb would take too much to get the opponent to -6
i dont think they'll ever make a non-b free move
Not even splash is free
SC steven
I think I need to settle for SS Silver bc no SC Steven.
dont have him, crap
free splash would actually be usable though maybe not for dc
gauge consumption keeps it useless
That and the fact that only Magikarp has it so far
Does water have potential for 5M+?
Maybe classic elesa is a decent option too, she has paralysis and thundershock is quite fast
Shock Factor 
For my anni may clear she worked well
She also has electric terrain to make sing a bit faster (but not sure if the max move works like field ex since for anni may I needed psychic terrain)
dahlia does have the most multipliers packed into one unit that i know of
though i don't have the best knowledge of the entire roster
How many multiplier she has?
I know she has interference sync 9 and interference is bad in dc
rain, rebuff, debuffs, innate, tech ex, interference sync
And she has Teeter Dance too
She also has Super Interference
Isn't super duper ?
But muddy water isn't the fastest thing
yea i don't remember her exact grid so there could be more that i didn't mention
Need to apply Teeter Dance once and prob need to reapply it again. That'll hurt
She feels kinda like NC cheren, she has the stuffs, but enabling them is time consuming
Eusine is unreliable too since he needs weather and trap
yea bit of time consumption on confusion but having all the other stuff should make her one of the strongest options still
I mean dahlia probably will still be the best option, but I don't think she will score insanely high
Ok maybe if you get super lucky
LySSandre needs to burn his enemies
Like confusion lasting the whole battle + self hits
Also Superduper can only make 1 sync SE
Unless you're gonna try muddy water before every sync.
At least burn unlike confusion frees the paralysis slot
I think volcanion will be insane on triple water, it gets 3 sync multipliers
Burn isn't optimal but I guess less annoying than confusion
I think confusion is the bottom of the barrel
Trap is also close (but at least lasts more)
Yes confusion eats your time but doesn't guaranteed to earn you extra pts in return.
Trap at least guaranteed to earn you extra pts
I mean if you get really lucky, confusion may last enough and cancel some attacks, but the odds are really slim
I guess is more likely to hit discharge 30% AOE flinch before each sync than hoping for several self hits/long confusion
If you slot NC blue
Ew, imagine healing every Stun Spore 
Like 1 time
Stun Spore is grass move
Yes but you use it once
It will healing every single time
Sing will still be the spam
Stun spore isn't even spammable by itself
You just need it to paralyze
Ah you want to use it with Sing
Yes that's the plan
Probablem is that if you use something like SS acerola then you can't sing spam
Maybe in single target I think sing is usable with SS acerola, I guess the opponents not moving can make a bit for the animation, but they won't waste gauge
Wondering if Agatha may be viable in ghost st
On paper she should have the strongest f2p ghost nuke, but she needs sleep
Second option should be allister but it still needs poison
3rd option I think is Helena , but no 6ex and smarty pants (but she paralyzes)
Same for the other 2 I guess (with Agatha you just want sleep/hypnosis to connect)
Helene doesn’t have Ex really hurt her dmg
For Agatha, ofc you can Sing spam only
I used it before
But really rng

It depends on how many turn you can Sing before enemy wake up
Posion & EVictor?
Allister need Poison for his multiplier
Oh Allister!
I think restrain is still my biggest headache about him, more than poison.
I don't have SC Steven so I need to pick restrain after sync tile and it'll be some dmg lost in grid + a lot of extra animation.
aoe flying and ice. Nate got like 4.4 mil and he's almost the perfect dc unit so idk if anyone can do 5 mil
You can use the max move instead
I don't think it'll last the entire battle, no?
It does
is restrain move based?if so it should
Restrain doesn't go away unless the opponent has a cleansing passive
Or on LA bar transitions
It can go away
For 3vs3 it doesn’t bc enemy doesn’t move that much
It just stays a while
Really? I thought the description said it only ends when HP reaches 0
Nope
no
Someone already did 1m Gordie during the rock 3v3
Anyone here would like to try Lodge Steven when this refreshes? 
it's ST Rock?
Stealth Rock 
Yes
I could give it a go. But DF loses so much time
maybe I can see a team of NC Rosa, Lodge Steven, and NC Blue?
I forgot his innate is fucking rock DF lmao
Wish he has a better one like idk brainpower
yeah
I dunno if I should be glad Gauntlet made me EX my Gordie, but I guess we'll find out soon
I saw a 1m Gordie back during 3v3
I'm more curious about which striker will use DPS build to reach 1M this time.
Forgot what's the team tho
Likely not even a striker. Just Gordie lol
For Ground it's SS Gio and SC Adaman.
For Bug it's SC Barry and Alder.
Oh wow, was it changed at some point?
"passive skills that force a switch"
ayo? Next MF will force the opponent to just leave
Roar meta soon? 😳
Incineroar Parting Shot 🤪
INTIMIDATE CYCLE IS BACK
B Memento 
incen as op as it is in vgc when
we can never really escape it
incen as dc opp when
Lando T. being the strongest ground DD here would be funny
drops our stats on entry and sync
Irida Sprint makes 0 sense thematically. If either of the 2 gets Sprint - its Adaman
Irida is probably Field, or Support or Strike
most likely its:
Adaman - Sprint (Time = sprint/acceleration)
Irida - Field (Space = field effect .. or something)
I will never ever pull Nita from the BP exchange
not to be that person, but they gave Lucas, who has Dialga, a Support EXR...
Adaman - SS Acerola - BP barry is usable
i wonder how meh mix red will be for grass dc at 1/5
they should give more field coins
Stun Spore will troll you
ugh
wasting time on heals lmao
oh yeah because terrain heals .. damn
Guess just Colress your way through it
I think I might use Colress, SS Erika, and SS Lyra. I wish my Adaman was at 3/5 so bad
Grass is still so long hopefully I would already have a 3/5 Colress by then
And what if you don't?

I'm gonna try how fast is Leer spam tomorrow
I wonder how would her passive interact with EXR zone. Would the hail activate before or after sync?
before
I don't know whats the problem with restrain, his max move applies restrain, and restrain lasts a lot (it should last the whole match) it doesn't adds animations or anything, I don't think what's the problem with restrain
It goes away, but it lasts a lot
It lasts definitely more than trap
Expecially if you restrain just before your 1st allister sync
Restrain lasts for like, what, 8 moves too?
If it'll go away, it'll be a big problem for ppl who don't have SC Steven, LIKE ME.
I mean if you restrain just before 1st allister sync it should probably last enough
By then the opponent gauge should be quite bad, and I don't think it will act much regardless
Hmmm, 3v3 fire-weak I'm wondering
I'll just test it when the next 3v1 DC comes ig.
3v3 Fire Mix Blue will be the best 100%
Along with who?
probably Chase-Melony as usual
maybe you can try to fit in NC leaf for rebuffs, but probably not optimal
my guess is mix blue chase melony
Silver will kinda go hard here
could gordie silver melony get 1 mil for the f2p dudes in fire aoe?
And also, SS Nemona is conveniently released during 3v3 fairy
Speaking of dropping conveniently
Dragon ST is slated just around anni day and we also have dragon CS weakness, smells like a new dragon tech
I expect SS Nemona uses sunny day will have super loooong animation .
dragon CS (and Dragon HSE) is probably because Lance Dragonite is getting that champ trio upgrade on anni
Wait, how did LuSSa get a very high score in 3v3 psychic-weak?
wdym by that 🔍
what’s warranting the confusion? i feel like she’s good no?
We need more dragon supports tho. If they make another dmg dealing oriented dragon tech I'll be quite mad.
That was the very first DC, back when people are still figuring out the optimal play
Because I'll need this answer by 3v1 rock-weak
i see
We certainly do not have the stun/sleep fail chain that we have today back then
LuSSa was good because of her TM MPR right?
its time
Real
maybe ss nemona outclasses ss gladion but im glad i have him for 3v3
That was part of it yeah
no guarantee that she does
im wondering whats the best team for ss glad though

Real talk, imma use the real MVP.
True ngl lmao
Both dragon and ground have a pretty underwhelming supports in terms of numbers
Good
Inertia and brawn sync 5 iirc
sheesh
She also has SEUN on her TM IIRC
Ah, that one
She'll get SEUN after every sync
She has AOE DPS + strong sync on type + SSLana being a Alola PT setter + NC Rosa being support / sprint / rebuff combination
Brawn sync 3 btw
hassel real
So true
Looks like SS Diantha will repeat history here
Gonna need someone to raise ny lisia's speed
I'd guess wally, him and Barry?
probably
so basically 180%
I think ss glad gets at least 3 mil
Wally has +2 speed on entry yeah
his b move is not limited by the damage cap
and both him and wally have sprint exr
Gladion also has Super Syncer
he can get at most 2 b moves too right?
wally drops special attack, has fairy zone and rebuff, has very fast accel to make his sync not a waste and he's wally
he does?
Yes
Yeah at 3/5
I didn't see enough but I think Rock 3v3 didn't really use para/sing spam too. The only 3M I've seen is Paulo + SCDiantha + NC Silver.
Yes
gordie not too bad for f2p too
tbf rock 3v3 was more so cuz sand
diantha compresses zone and has a strong and easy nuke
field exr means she only needs rock zone anim once
her tm even has -3 cd
1/5 so i'll pass
It's just one roll tho.
You'll never touch Wally's other move except his bmove.
50/50

How does this grid look
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
SS Diantha Redlax Elio
i cant believe there is a world where you’ll reset on confusion
Imma go Larry/Colress/NY lisia next week
Gonna go with this comp then
But ivwish i could max out that atk....
I might go chase melony ss glad or melony. Mina fzing is not the best imo
rng should be minimal
cuz ss glad has soften up
anything I should change in the grid
Aight hear me out.
no
Maybe Gladion would be better with SS Wally + BP Barry. For the delicious rebuff + zone + spatk debuff compression

I would definitely do that
if I had ss Wally
ss wally is required
I tried Volo before, he’ll be so good if he has Supp cake
for best score

I will be fine with something like 2.5 mil
WHY DENA WHY
aghefhadjifft
He has T-Move spatk+atk up 9, but i'm confused by its wording
Yes for some reason they think field having ex support is a deadly combo so we never got one after VThorton
"Raises the users atk and spatk by 1 after the trainer uses it move...." but does that mean togepi only or the user i just buffed?
yardenia
Oh forget her lol.
So.... togepi only?
so togepi
Paing
But his Tm still really good
how does nemona look for this?
Doesn't help ny lisia tho
does her circle last long enough?
Just insta +4 Atk/SpA & +3 crit
and is the extra wtz animation worth it over ss glad?
And no Endure or Field effect like Thoron or Yardenia
she immediately sets paldea circle after
so that's more anim as well
how long does paldea circle last?
When she use sunny, you need to wait sunny + Paldea circle + all the PMUN stack animation.
My cooking rn.
Which is quite deadly be it might let you lose one sync.
btw if you want three paldea circs(she has 0 extension) you need sync burst
eh
WAIT NY LISIA HAS FT9 ON QUICK ATTACK
and you need 4/5 if you wanna pick sync burst and all her nuke tiles

Max multipliers
Fz and Sync boost on circle
Ooooh this gonna be spicy
And Seun on sync
ss glad has 150% sync (super syncer gives him+50%) and his nuclear b move x2 so idt nemona beats him
Nemona has 190% plus 20% from circle so 210% sync?
Super syncer is one time only tho.
tbh Lisia will probably beat SS Nemona in Fairy 3v3
Super Sync 9 >> Super Syncer
LEMME COOK.
eh, nemona sync isn't weaker right?plus nemona has a 6 pmun stack b move at the end
Nemona wastes too much time and doenst have Super Sync 9
Ny lisia has PMUN by 3 on her tm
How much time doesn't circle plus sun take?
still helpful information
so she needs to use sunny day on 1 minute 40 seconds unless she's 4/5
cuz I can't find a way to grab sync burst and all sync multipliers without+8 energy
That checks out
So she needs 4/5 to be able to even sync all the time with max power
I think fairy aoe will be ss glad>4/5 nemona=ny lisia>3/5 nemona>everyone else
She can pair w Penny for rebuff + extra paldea stack ig
you are giving up wally then tho ....
im burning the kitchen
80% boost vs 60% boost tho tbf you get support exr
Not eggsylveon lmao
Wrong place
Maybe SS Hilda
not a chance
She has super effective up next for every sync
Hilda should have rising tide + rising tide innate
What does Hilda get from 3/5 besides her nuke? 
Does she need anything else?
Hilda is a striker, not a tech
she has inate rising tide?
Ah wait no, she's a strike
However mix blue doesn't have an innate too
can leaf set sun that lasts without needing to sync?
having sun is arguably better than Super Sync 9, because you can get SEUNs from redlax (who has paralysis too). Sun setters dont have paralysis
also Blue has a big extend-range move to drop at the end
and his sync crits are guaranteed
NC Leaf's bmove sets sun first use
ok so sshilda has scorching sync 5, rising tide and super sync 9 so 220%. If you slot in a wtz or rebuff you get 270%
I mean you can still get sun from leaf that also gives rebuff
does it last the entire match?
scorching sync is bad in DC
SS Hilda is blessed for being an Unovan though, so NC Bianca would prob kick in.
Is bad but not as bad as fuzzy strike or trap and sync
It's something we will take into consideration after looking at the multipliers
I mean blue is probably better just for the guaranteed crit alone
running Hilda + leaf means you cant run sing spam
with blue you can run Blue + Redlax + Elio
You can if you plan to use scorching sync
using burns is just a time loss IMO = dps loss
However a searing shot can likely burn at least 1 unit, if you burn just a side burn won't trigger much
I guess sun and rebuff is better than saving the burn I guess
for 3v3 you need burns on all 3 enemies if you want the extra sync damage on all 3
blue has sf5 and brainpower plus sun that's permanent plus seun on tm and no burn so that's 250%. Then chase gives 30%
so 280%
he also has sure crits
he should be able to melony freely
But if you burn 1 you can still spam sing and not waste much time with burns
if only 1 is burned - only 1 gets to have the Scorching Sync 5 damage
then its not even worth at all
The point is more to enable sing
Scorching sync is more a bonus
I mean if I could choose I will use blue just for the guaranteed crit regardless
enabling sing with burn is bad. Just use paralysis IMO
thats why redlax + sing is superior to burn + sing
blue realistically has 280% throughout the battle. Hilda has 270%. 320% for some of the battle but
-She has burn multiplier
-chase should give blue an extra sync
-blue has sure crit syncs
However Hilda is the best "f2p" option
I counted that in 280%
Not that hilda is f2p but compared to mix blue she is
I mean a f2p player can have SS Hilda, but it 100% guaranteed can't have mix blue
Blue has 150% sync damage + 1.3x from Chase + 1.5x from sun .. and x1.5 from SEUNs if you use redlax
However Hilda has much more attack
how much?
568 vs 454
That's a big attack difference but blue does have the multiplier advantage plus likely gets more syncs in
And also 2 extra sync nodes
Can blue fit rebuff?
I mean don't know how much burn will slow down
However even if Hilda can on paper score more (I'm not saying she can) I would still pick blue for the guaranteed crit (if I had him)
oh this is next week hmm
SS Hilda is still the best option that at least "exists" for f2p
The real f2p option will probably be silver
That isn't too bad, it has sun and super effective up next, but it needs some help buffing
Jokes asides, I think silver has more multipliers than p2w blue
interesting 😮
Is just that his attack stat is quite low
Inertia, solar flare 5 and solar flare 9 I think
how about SS Red 3R?
Tm gives seun, and evasion
he can get leaf over chase if needed
how long does his re sun setting after sync anim take
Sun shouldn't be a long animation
I think is the fastest wtz animation, but i'm not 100% sure
At least it should be faster than zone and terrain
Maybe him plus leaf/chase(is his sync special?)plus melony could get 1 mil easily
His sync is physical
oh then leaf
Don't know If you want to run elio for the buffs
Silver can buff with tm, but since tm gives seen you don't want to waste it
The main issue is that he can't buff inertia by himself
can't he grab beserker and mpr?
speed will be an issue tho
Yes but it gives seun too so you want to save tm for it
is elio speed only+1?
Yes only +1
?it has mpr
Mpr1
However using tm 6 times is slow
If his sync was special chase or NC blue would have fixed him
could dodges make up for that?
Technically
Elio has Sparkling Aria: Team Fast-Track 4. Still RNG hell and slow tho.
Not really f2p just f2p damage dealer
Hilbert can fully setup him
If you want sing spam w spe buff NC Rosa fits that.
Silver can burn so you can still sing spam if you want
But for a full f2p comp yes it's Hilbert again.
Full f2p is probably Hilbert, silver and melony
Maybe corless instead of melony
I think sing with 1 burned opponent is still faster than twave, but corless can debuf def
I can't wait for Hilbert getting his expansion. Hope it's not sth mid.
What tiles can help him in DC more?
i'm not too sure about my fire3 team
likely going to be mix blue 3r, nc leaf 3r and either colress or bp barry or redlax
i don't think 2/5 ss hilda will be of much use for fire3
might have to try and struggle with 3r Leon 
Hilda and Silver are better than him
leon sucks here even at 3/5
Since i don't want burning animation
wouldn't rising tide require you to use her moves a bit?
like 2-3 uses?
Just a couple V-Creates
NC Leaf-SS Hilda-SS Hilda-SS Hilda-SS Hilda OR NC Leaf
hrm spicy

fire 3 will be dominated by my ss red!
although silver has so much solar flare in his grid
and seun
is he actually better lmao
Yes.
Yeah because he won't need a sun setter
And his nuke is easier to setup iirc
Silver is way better than SS Red
SS Red requires Haymaker setup and also sun for his multipliers
is it normal for EXR 3/5 Rose to do about 1.3m damage? don't have thorton but wonder how there are teams that get to 2.3m
in my case i used NC Blue (for speed reasons) and melony (for 1 gauge sing), but even then and using 2 TM i have abit of speed issues, so can't spam sing as effectively by the end
though it's still far off 2.3m ...
Rose sync is pretty whatever
Without exr
He's more about max bombing and DPS
Which are bad for DC
Do you have Ex Solgaleo?
I guess everyone has ex solgaleo, is more about the power boost
I don't have! 
No wait the champion spirits are locked
Only 20/20 is always available
Always forget that free legendaries use custom spirits
Depends what invested steel units you have
Not breaking any records but I'm happy to clear this with Steven 
which of the remaining types will break 4M in 3v3 ? my predictions:
Fairy, Water, Electric - yes
Poison, Flying - maybe
Ice?
I think not. NC red wont have hail and he has lower stat than NC Nate + he doesnt have the big AoE B-move bomb at the end
or the unova circle stacking
But he has 2 rebuff on himself, and Chase being perfect for him.
thats equivalent to Nates dragon zone, both give x1.5. Same thing
that much faith in ss glad b move?
yup (I dont have SS Gladion)
Your faith isn’t misplaced exactly
But it is a bit slow
well I have no doubt that the last b fluer will hit 1.5 mil at minimum my worries are with the first b fluer
b fluer only refreshes on ss glad's first sync so you NEED to b fluer before ss glad first sync
that's the easy part
No?
ss wally, his ultimate enabler achieves -4
you need fluer canon 2 times anyways. 1 time per b move to unlock it
so you can't save smun from the first b fluer for the last one
I definitely think 3.5 mil is possible but 4 mil is a bit high
so your first b fluer will only be at 3 sync buffs
NC Red has 2.9 multiplier w/o hail. SMUN stack (1) + spatk buff (1) + rebuff (0.9)
For SMUN he can get +3 from Blizzard, +2 from TM, +2 from protect, +3 from Chase so he can max it easily.
W/o hail he actually still has higher sync multipliers than NC Nate (2.4).
So he actually only loses on another circle stack.
won't he have 10smun stacked
*10
total nate has like 100% haymaker+circle up sync 9(90%)+ speedster sync 5(50%) + seun from redlax (50%) + Bianca passive ( 20%)+ The two circles so 30% and 15% iirc plus dragon zone
so 405%?
It's EITHER Red + status spam or Bianca + status spam. You don't use both together in DC.
oh right I forgor
then 355%
red has his inate passive(100%)+brainpower (100%) + rebuffed foe sync up 9(90%) and 30% from chase so 320%?
Nate also has a higher attack stat
And 2 rebuffs provide by himself
oh right
so 370%
how much is the attack difference between them?
I think red hits 4 mil
Also I'm not saying he can outdamage Nate. I'm just saying he can prob reach 4m.
cuz he can afford Chase+ melony
yeh but nate got 4.4 mil so being somewhat close to him is probably enough
how many syncs do ya all think is reasonable in total for ss glad Barry and wally comp?
sync buffs is enough
I think 8 sync buff possible
Could be wrong since the b move is very long
But ss Wally cheats an entire sync and gladion has a minor sprint
So perhaps
eh, we have had long setups before as well
What am I doing wrong?
Prob just crit luck.
3 sync buff fluer and 8 sync buff fluer. Opp has -6 special attack and -1 rebuff. Fz is up.
enemy has 83 def
0 smun
yeah....idt ss glad breaks 4 mil
No 
Want to see if I can reach 2m with Rose but no Soften Up is pain
Are you not using sing spamming strategy?
Maybe it can give you more points!
Straightforward 900k
Yea nc silver
