#Damage Challenge

Damn
masterful metronome calling an actually effective move is like, 2 of 11 moves, dazzling gleam is just not it, his sync isn't great even with the tech exr
and even if masterful metronome calls a good move its animation takes forever
Doubt I have whats needed without giving 3/5 to someone
Besides maybe BP Valerie?
I honestly don't have crazy investment in my fairy pairs which I'd probably give to Nemona or Gladion
I think 1/5 Gladion is enough, innate soften up + b move at the end works wonders
I would appreciate it if you did

I put up a submission on the sheet too with a video and more notes in the description
the grids are pretty unoptimal because I was lazy. you can get all the relevant nodes without the extra energy
idk why its hard to get the 1M
shouldn't be too difficult for me but it's turning out to be
idk, I just did her with exr role today
and I got 744K
Anyone have a team for the DC that contains SS Diantha?
Hi everyone check out the Barry DC.
Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe for more PMEX.
trying this but not getting the 1M
Ohh wow yeah I don’t have that Rosa or Red 😭
Thanks dude 
where sync spammer
wasnt sure if i was allowed to post videos before. heres a different comp

The Grids are really bad. I w...
The sync spam we refer always means use unit with status move (twave, sing, etc) which is bound to fail to spam and never touch any attack move.
ohh
well I kinda gave up on that
idk I was getting 745K
but with lower defense, I was able to get 918K
use elio. Reset until redlax body slam paras. Make sure that you do not click any move other than sing . (after buffing your attack with elio tm and diantha rock zone ofc, redlax handles the crit, ). Use your tm post mega for Accel (redlax handles the scholar's sync buff) .
did you click anything other than sing?
oh and remember to use redlax tm on diantha after every diantha sync
So, anymore prep for tomorrow?
Some are just gonna use their 3v3 Ghost comps if they have SSR Cynthia. Meanwhile, SS Korrina is gonna have a chance to shine here
Ig ppl would change team. In 3v3 they use NC Leaf or Lenora bc they need aoe debuff, but in 3v1 you don't need aoe when st debuff is fine.
And Sing spam wasn't even a thing yet during 3v3 Ghost so some adjustments are gonna happen.
You know, I just have this feeling we're gonna break our first 5M in electric 3v3
I'm wholly expecting it tbh
Ash or SST Red with NC Blue is just asking for astronomically high damage numbers 
Nah, SS Hau's EXR will destroy it
Constant ET Terrain with Tech/Strike nukes 
I just realize you can choose not to pick Power Plant so SS Hau won't have the "always waste time to summon field after sync" punishment.
Man, society if we had a SEUN sync spammer
I don't have that much faith in ss hau
he needs to web 4 times
where's your et then
so give up 50%?
he only sets et on entry
Unless you have the grid tile
100 seconds is barely enough for half of the dc run
SST Red ig.
Then who will sync spam?
Without support EXR?
And also another problem with Hau is that you need to set up fairy zone unless you're willing to lose that too
Err SST Red + Melony is our first sing spam strategy we found.
Then I guess NC Blue is replaced here then
And lose out on the 1.5x damage from -2 electric rebuff?
Doesn't -2 rebuff = WTZ?
It depends on which give you more dmg in practice.
Well, Blue does have that +20% team sync damage, but Red also gives +24 offensive stats from theme skills
-2 rebuff but Power Plant slowing you down every time, or 0 rebuff but sync more.
And also Red also has -3 sync CD upon using his max move
And Hau has Turbo Charge
But at the same time, Blue has X Speed All+
And also has Turbo Charge along with -2 defensive stat drops upon syncing
so no blue so -70%?
whimsical sync is unnecessary
Fair
so you give up 70% and support exr for an extra sync?
even with power plant you can get 6 syncs total in
I'm more than willing to 3/5 SSR Cynthia, but if I see someone able to 1m with Allister, I'll take up that chance to use him instead
that extra sync is not worth the 70% loss imo
It'd be pretty funny if 3v3 electric-weak was a similar situation like this rock-weak 3v1
Imagine if Ash was the real MVP for 3v3 electric-weak
I mean it's possible it's not just 1 extra.
I'll wait for ppl smarter than me to find out the best comp lol.
Because he doesn't require much set up like Hau does
Similar to how Gordie nukes harder than Diantha, but Diantha scores more because of less set up
And Ash still has his B Move with him
To make it feel like another sync nuke
Imo Gordie needs burn already disqualify his chance being top 1 tho.
Well, apparently, having too much multipliers but with more set up is worse than having less multipliers but easier set up
Was there ever a case that more multipliers with more set up is better than less multipliers with less set up?
it should be 1 extra. Tried without power plant once and barely got in 7 syncs
with good para luck
3 syncs will be required to make up for the 70%
We don't actually know who will be better between the two
it's been a common point of debate
Well, let's see if history will repeat itself
diantha is more so a case of having wtz in built. Btw diantha does sync harder accounting for her wtz
She's barely behind Gordie after mega
I think diantha gordie case is not similar to hau Ash case
does gordie have inate rock zone?
No
diantha edged ahead cuz inate rock zone
But he has higher multipliers
hau has inate e terrain
wtz inate + good multipliers is better than a few more multipliers
hau has more multipliers and inate wtz
But has significantly slower set up
it's not significantly slower
I just checked but it seems SS Diantha always outdamaging Gordie after her first sync?
3 uses of his B Move
So it's a case that's very different from gordie case
exactly
comparing gordie and diantha to Ash and hau situation is not the best
gordie only has like 50% more mult btw
which gets covered by diantha 1.5x rock zone
Hmmm, how many syncs can you get in if Hau has all of his multipliers gridded?
Like Whimsical Sync 5
no whimsical sync 5
that's a pure time waste and not worth it
I tested it before and without whimsical the total syncs are 6(maybe 7 if you para everytime)
Para every time?
I'm assuming NC Blue/Melony
I calculated BOTH under rock zone, so Gordie always lose to Diantha after she mega.
He can only win with first sync.
I got 2 paras
why? you shouldn't as that's not practical for dc
What's the team with Hau?
Well before this dc truly happen, some ppl DID speculate that using Gordie + SS Dian but Gordie sync can get higher score than SS Dian herself.
Gordie got higher sync, the difference is just because of zone
They can def work together but if you have 3/5 ssDiantha you can run para+spam eensuring more syncs
Chase hau and melony but I did not click his tm to emulate nc blue. I was also only 4 moves away from sync 7 in my original testing
If you have 5/5 Diantha and Melony with Adrenaline, then you can guarantee get 10 sync buffs
Or if you get para proc, then you're guaranteed 10 syncs anyway
Either way, hau Ash case is different from Melony Gordie
here the higher sync damage also has the wtz
Did Hau use 3 of his B Move?
4
do you have soften up on?
Why 4?
nope
guess what tm the enemy uses...
Ah
in aoe elec
so not picking soften up seems to be one of the things for 2 mil
at least that's what I heard
I haven't checked the enemy tm thing myself in a while
yeh
And also, doesn't Chase slow down the fight quite a bit at the beginning because of his passive?
I even went the extra mile of clicking circle to emulate blue discharge time and rebuff
yes, that's something that the optimal blue comp won't have as well
If Chase is the one to paralyze for Melony to sync spam, then you'll be really slowed down
Ah, I used chase because I don't have nc blue
having soften up require 2 paralyze for 2M
Nc blue will definitely be optimal and get in at least 6 total syncs
Have you tried using Initial Propulsion and Adrenaline to not rely on para?
Because I've almost gotten 10 sync buffs without para proc
doesn't that give up multipliers if you wanna run soften up? Building for soften up seems bad imo
score?
soften up on grid is not worth the pickup
My name is at the top 10
Something like this is the grid
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/15802/71902?s=5&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13016403&g=AAECAwQFCAwOERQWHiMmNDU&x=true
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
this is the grid that I use to get 2M with soften up
Actually, my score is thanks to para proc
And gotten 10 sync buffs because of it
by using 2 rock tomb so no multipliers go short
but need 2 paralyzes to gain back time
Try what I said
Initial Propulsion in exchange for Soften Up and Adrenaline on Melony
We don't know the details of the optimal strat unless skinny reveals it but I don't think soften up is gonna be there
SP3 is obvious, most likely just have godlike skill gear rolls
Ik skinny is the gear goddess. I am more interested in the grid
The hardcore player is like: just crit every sync w/o Soften Up, easy right?
I mean, it's the optimal strat
if you want the highest scores
soften up is not something that boosts damage or speed
it only reduces rng which you can do yourself by resetting
Something like this
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/15802/71902?s=5&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13016403&g=AAECAwQFDA4RFBYZGh4jJjQ1&x=true
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
as long as it's not a 0% it could happen a 100% of the time
I think the problem is better gears and insane luck
Probably
It'd be surprising if skinny somehow gridded Tough Cookie in exchange for something like Lithic Acceleration
what gears do ya all have btw
My best score is 2M1 and I don't think of anyway to get more than that
So, what's y'all's teams for tomorrw?
I have very less cookies
Wht should I do
Sp3 to gladion, adernaline 1 to Wally or adrenaline 1 to redlax
CS2 is fine on Gladion since he has Soften Up
Penny / colress / BP Valerie
Trying a bunch of stuff w NY lisia
But of course the stage got xDef all
More time lost on debuff
ss glad , chase and melony
can someone help me out my highest has only been 330k and from seeing other clears I feel like I can get higher
do you have 3/5 EX Gordie or SS Diantha?
Redlax too
because NC Silver is bad at handling single stage
no gordie?
no ex on him and I don't have the resources to get it
the only rock attacker I've invested in is Silver at this point
I think no ex Gordie would still score better.
yeah
NC Silver do have 1M clear but it's with EXR UElio + SC Steven
yeah I don't have either of those lol
Check the pins. There're a lot of different comps you can try.
alright tysm
Wow currently the doc doesn't have any SS Diantha clear is quite funny.
:/
Is Gordie first target?
no but he gets burn and +6 spd before his first sync
What about -6 speed for the enemy?
No Red?
unfortunately no
I saw Pykuo made a F2P clear with Sonia/Gordie/Melony(?)
no
then do it
Not sure if this is correct, but here's one example

Reset for 2 land...
This is headache lmao 50000 pts more
No NC Blue?
Don't tell me you used them for extra grid energy
Not for this one but like
900k/1.5=600k.
500~600k is non ex Gordie should at least reach.
Past challenges yes 
ye nvm 4 syncs with diantha is already mad lucky
either para proc or evasiveness from nc rosa
so 950k is fine
without those i only get 3
Sync with Rosa and Bmove to get Sing back really eats too much time.
Only really worth in Fighting/Psychic DC
3v3 fire-weak is next week 
Its the week before 5th anni ;o
Silver in sync rush teams means he can sync under his own sun
I will make an attempt with Ethan
Silver will need 1 TM MPR for full set up and much more if you plan to nuke him with SEUN
(It will not go well)
Hildini will probably be the best one next week
For my actual attempt I will use Mix Blue
At least Silver doesn't require Burn, just Speed and Sun for his multipliers.
He also buffs himself evasion
To Scorching Sync or not to Scorching Sync on her?
He'll pull a NC Marnie and be the tank
i have so many to choose from.
But is Scorching Sync worth it since it slows your timer 
Silver only need speed = NC Blue + Melony again?
Well, he also needs SEUN
So Redlax + Elio
That team only has +1 speed.
Dang, Silver's TM has SEUN
Just get MPR from his TM more times
Tell me, is Scorching Sync worth for SS Hilda?
People ran Burn for Gordie so I'd think it's still worth. You can run a Sing spammer with the burn
^
If you have gauge issue just use Elio.
NC Leaf DEFINITELY needs Support cake for her to be worth running
Well, that team needs 4/5 SS Hilda like this
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/403/49400?s=4&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13010602&g=AAECAwQFBwwPEhMWFxodICE1&x=true
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
I think NC Leaf is a must in top score. 2 rebuff + sun + support exr is just too good.
And also sun extension
She'll probably be the best for ST Fire
So Elio + NC Leaf + DPS
And also AoE rebuff with defensive stat drops
The downside is that one of her Sun charges is locked behind her B move
Could do B move right before the DPS first sync
That said if the DPS is mix blue it is a non issue
This will be the cycle:
Elio/Melony -> SS Hilda -> NC Leaf -> SS Hilda
But for others I think that works
Sync with Elio > Sync with Leaf (especially if you gridded her for Sun-On-Sync + Support EXR) > DPS
Actually wait B Move is what triggers burn right
On who?
On Hilda, it's on Searing Shot. NC Leaf's B Move only has 10% Burn
If it's Leaf, then it's a 10% chance for burn. 50% chance for burn with HE4 gridded
SS Hilda has a 15% AoE chance with Searing Shot. 60% with HE3 gridded
Oh ye it's for Leaf
It'd be a waste to use Leaf's B Move for the Burn setup because it's locked on T1 plus you're forced to spend your Sun charge
So ye this will be RNG
Imagine dealing with that and Sync crit
Fun times
And she doesn't have Soften Up too

Imma try Variety Lucas if he can hit 1M on 3v3. 
Yeah i will stuck with no burn

How will you sync spam then?
Are you going to use NC Leaf to burn?
Idk yet
I am so glad Gordie scored this much.
Roark did very less damage last time! 
I know Gordie did 1 million already but I'm to lazy to grind again!
It took me thousands of tries to get +2Atk from NC Rosa, I won't be doing that again!
This is very good score considering all of my other scores!
But without sure crit i’ll not run burn Sync one
Imma try a fire power run with penny/sswally/ssgladion
Just 4 fun
Roark? You didn't have Olivia built during 3v3 Rock?
Good enough
But it might be better to give up penny for bpbarry
Nope
You should grid Gordie's TM MPR...
And I didn't know Gordie could do that well, back then!
I’ll use Red instead of Penny 
Triple Sprint
That's better for your mental health.
But but penny has mind games 
Gordie needed SC Steven for his 1M run in 3v3
And a couple stacks for b move
Just pray for Wally 
Red has Sync CD from Tm and ofc, SEUN
should just run redlax/elio with gordie
Yeah someone showed it to me later!
i managed 900k with that and there's a 1m clear video
Oh wait, you can sync spam with NC Leaf/Melony/SS Hilda. NC Leaf has Catalytic Acceleration
no tm mpr needed
You don’t want me to use my fully invested penny 
Yep, throw your 5/5 Penny
If Penny is 5/5 then she's kinda worth it because -2 Fairy Rebuff is basically Fairy Zone
That’s what I wanna do, double rebuff fairy zone and super syncer 
Not triple ? ~~for 10% dmg increase ~~

Oh right wally’s B move
Or you can use Penny as your DPS if you have her strike EXR 
Plus Penny has Brainpower as her multiplier so she's actually decent
I have exr on penny
I think I'm just gonna stick with this team
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/team?v0=009900040700&s0=5&l0=140&r0=6&p0=0&a0=15010301&t0=44444&g0=AAECAwQFBggTGhseISQ&v1=011901080100&s1=3&l1=150&r1=6&p1=0&a1=13016403&t1=44444&x1=true&g1=AAECAwQFERQXGBobJyksLS8&v2=012801028202&s2=5&l2=150&r2=6&p2=0&a2=13016403&t2=44444&x2=true&g2=AAECAwQFCQoLDA0PFxgdHyApKzU
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.

Then you look at the spatk stat
5/5 EXR Penny + SS Wally + BP Barry = 
Also Penny nuking with -3 Fairy Rebuff under Fairy Zone is gonna be hilarious 
I honestly think if you let Wally sync there it would be more damage
Or you can run SS Mina instead then BP Barry > SS Mina > Penny nukes
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
This will be my team for tomorrow
No one pick speedster sync 3 lol
Is Super Syncer really not worth? 
I use Red
Then who sync spams?
super syncer is just 1 seun anyway
I dont
That why i need triple sprint for that team
Gladion’s Sync isn’t that strong anyway
I think I will be crazy and actually try Ethan on Fire 3v3
I do look forward to Gladion showcases tomorrow tho
I mean it's not that crazy tho. He got sync multiplier and self sufficiency upon expansion.
I will go chase, ss glad and Barry
Oh yeah, doesn't SS Wally have Gobsmack in his passives?
50%
Yeah
He is
Because Wally does -8 Sp. Atk. for him, and both of them have Sp. Atk. drop multipliers
Unless it's Fairy 3v1 and SS Wally is your main dd, so you need to trigger it every time before you sync.
-4 special attack means you just need to use 1 fluer. You need to use 2 for the 2 b moves anyways but you can miss 1 fluer
ss gladion - ss wally is not gonna get many syncs. not even 6 syncs total probably
and only 1 Supp EX (Barry ?)
Well, it's made up for the massive damage they deal
tbf you don't need many for ss glad
And sprint EXR they have
I think 6 syncs total is easily doable
Now, it's only a question of buffing Wally's stats or not
Wally sync basically gives another sync
not worth
having 1 more ss glad sync so you have 7 sync buffs for ss glad sync is better
Ig yes bc his sync gonna deal dmg too for your score
you dont really need fairy debuff and fairy zone im thinking since its triple
It has 30% team sync multiplier in circle, but not that great by himself, however it can be a decent fairy zone setter, and circle is nice however even if it can status 23% of doing so (10% paralysis) you have to use the slowest move in the game to do so
TBF, you can save Gladion's B Move after you're done syncing with Wally at the end
Wally's sync is significantly stronger than Gladion's
I think that maybe it can be optimal to keep syncing with wally if you have him invested and sync with gladion only second last sync (if exr) or last sync if not, so you can use something like NC Rosa to help getting +10 and super syncer to land full power b move
How can you use NC Rosa when no one will do status?
I think sing spam is still workable in sigle target
Not as fast as statused sing spam, but without charging infliction it should be similar speed compared to stun spore spam
You have to see sing animations, but the opponent won't attack as often
If you give Rosa pinpoint entry 2, with 2 tm uses she will have 100% sleep
Also, if Gladion isn't going to sync for damage, is it worth to grid Superduper Effective 2?
Pinpoint Entry or Troublemaker?
Never troublemaker in dc
I'm guessing because it slows you down
Yes troublemaker is slow
Anyways. Here's my sync cycle:
BP Barry -> SS Wally -> SS Gladion -> SS Wally (until the end)
She can get 65% base accuracy sing, with +2 from tm and +2 from pinpoint will be 100% accuracy
@fluid anvil so I used chase to emulate ss wally because I don't have ss Wally. Ik Chase is gonna lower the countdown more but I got in 6 syncs with 1 para. I can take a screenshot if you want (Just take my number of sync buffs -2 as my Barry and chase are exed)
Why ss wally sync after ss glad?
I did 2 fluers and 2 b fluers
Because Wally is my main nuker
Significantly stronger than Gladion's sync even with 3 targets
wouldn't it be better to sync with ss glad after 2 ss wally sync?
I think gladion nuke X3 is still better, but you may want to save super sync for last b move
I'm saving Gladion's SEUN after he syncs
I do have it, but...
Imo super syncer ain't worth it
won't super duper effective 2 give more since it's boosting all b moves?
B move refresh may work with SS wally, since you can delay gladion sync
But you can't get two +10 ones
It requires 7 extra energy for the grid I'm using
unfortunately ss glad b move requires the mon to use a move
7....?
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
I mean you can get a +10 one if you want but the 1st one should probably be +2 or something
Problem is that you need to rely on NC Rosa sleep lock
This one looks funny unfortunately+10e
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
Ko one is useless
Oh right
Without MPR Rosa can give +6 and gladion should get +4
If you can fish for gladion and Rosa MPR, I guess 1st one can be +4
Me personally, I'm gonna use this for Gladion

1 KO will achive infinite Point 
Ko enemies in dc when
I'm going Rosa but I can't sync with wally cuz mine is only 1/5
Give them 10M HP and we're square
imagine if the dc stage was fightable as a regular stage
I was thinking about Chase ss glad barry
could chase ss glad and ss wally do something actually?
Why Barry with chase?
I think NC Rosa is more valuable because you really want those smun stacks
chase ss glad melony hopefully gets me 1.5 mil
Oh, I almost forgot that if you want to retain Gladion's SEUN without wasting it on regular Fleur Cannon, the regular Fleur Cannon must miss
However chase can give them
Chase is so much faster tho so you can get in 1 final sync with ss glad to b move a final time
the price of soften up
reset for miss
reset for miss
Yes I mean chase + rosa
Remind me why Chase is good here, I don't have him. Support/Sprint + Evasion is what I know
Doesn't Gladion innately have Soften Up?
Oh I get what you mean 
Actually no
It has critical sync I think
I was talking about it being the additional rng price of him having base soften up
it's soften up
missing second fluer also means that your b move will have 3 smun minimum
I know for sure that it can get 100% crit on sync
still better than Barry burn RNG
what's the gameplan with the rosa comp?
Does the enemy have X Evasion All or smth.?
there's wally 50% reset if gobsmack happens and 10% to make sure that ss glad misses
x defence all
physical fairies will take longer to ramp
X evasion all can be interesting for gladion itself, but bad for wally
1st use of Fleur Cannon can hit. 2nd use should miss
Wally b move is one of the few 1use b moves without guaranteed hit
is the plan with rosa comp
ss glad fluer>wally buffs>rosa sync>b move > rosa sing>fz>wally> b move>wally>fz if needed (?) ss glad b move> ss glad sync>fluer miss>rosa tm >final giga b move
with 7-8 smun and seun
I'll go for 1 b fleur route because I don't have 3/5 SS wally that can delay gladion sync
Hmmmm, do I sacrifice Fairy Zone Extension for Fairy Wish: Brain Gain?
I might try this but will Chase instead of wally since I don't have him so I must use ss glad sync earlier
probably not
just get special attack off rosa b move
Nah, I'm gonna use a sync spammer like BP Barry
Unless I use something silly like Bede, maybe with sing strats his confusion multiplier is manageable (but I don't want to roll for pinpoint 2 on Rosa)
@crude sandal how much smun should I give ss glad
I feel that the most you can get the better is
W/o other status shouldn't Sing miss better?
You either want sing to miss always or hit always
Expecially if you are dealing with confusion
Not sure
Prolly 4 or 5
first tm smun tile gives you smun on x speed all and on my soul is shaking so +3
oh it's 7 smun my bad
I'd save the 2 uses of X Speed+ after missing the 2nd Fleur Cannon
Gladion's X Speed+
accidentally typed all
Ah wait is fairy 3v3 connecting sing isn't really viable (even with go viral I guess)
his tile only triggers smun on first use of a tm
It also counts towards his grid that gives him SpMUN stacks when using a TM
Non statused sing spam is only viable in 3v1 I think
Maybe with go viral, but you can't keep the opponent sleep locked
only on first time
so no need to use more than 1 x speed+
5 smun ss glad b move with the comp you are planning to use
I think they used Rosa sing spam in AOE dragon
oh, then I go 6 smun?
Yes? If that's what you calced
I calced 5 smun
Technically you can fish for x speed MPR too but you can only get it with 1st 2 uses (if your support buffed less than 3 speed
However x speed is only +1 with the passive
@crude sandal this is my understanding. Setup ss wally, ss glad fluer 1, bp barry para>ss glad tm, ss wally setup, bp barry starts spamming> sync bp barry>Bp barry spam> fz>Wally sync> wally b move> spam> wally move again>ss glad b move> fluer miss> spam> glad sync> x speed all twice, tm if it mpred and there's time? > b move
Wondering if chase + melony/Rosa is better than 1/5 SS wally
I can test that for you tmrw
will tmrw be the first time we will be resetting for a miss?
I reset for miss sing since yesterday
oof
ready to reset again tomorrow?
what moves does the stage have?
90 acc gonna be a pain
It's gonna be deep into the run as well
your first fluer also must not miss
so that's more rng
best I got with diantha was 685k, the 2nd min is awful and I only sync 3 or 4 times in the last min
90% accuracy when you need to hit is 50% when you need to miss, becomes 99%
I Can't really afford 2 b move
I will try both 1 and 2 b move
Yes but without invested wally I can't really do 2 moves
Plus I don't want to touch the 10% miss fish with a 10 ft pole
I can fish for 10% miss 1st move, not halfway
2 b move gives a ton of value because of the smun and damage from the first one
Eh... best ones?
gordie if you dont have ss diantha
And I don't have SS Diantha
Yes but to get the smun you have to fish for 10% miss, and that's horrible
Gordie can 1 mil but he needs to be exed
For this DC, should I be using 1/5 Diantha, 1/5 NC Silver, or 3/5 Paulo to sync?
I've literally never used him and haven't bothered to EX him yet...
He will be the only one able to 1 mil for you at this time if 3/5
None of the options you have can at rheir current move level
Paulo can't even do great damage as he's more of an enabler than dder
still value technically
Now that I think about it, I should remove Interference Sync from Wally
Also, a little big brain strat I've thought of with Wally, but you can use his Discombobulate to make your enemies miss their attacks for faster syncs
Curious on who will do more damage overall, nemona or Gladion tbh.
On one hand, SS Gladion will be like NC Silver, but iirc, nemona has a bonker sync
her sync isn't Nate level bonker
Rip ss gladion still winning. Skip lmao
she also has a few anims that she has to sit through and she runs out of power in 100 seconds
might have been better imo if she had mpr or extension on her fields
Unless she's 4/5 or 5/5, you run out of more than half her multipliers in 100 seconds
Thanks DeNa for making new units with bonker damage but way too long animations to use it.
why no sunny day mpr dena .....
Because they had to sell you sync burst
at least place it in a good location and make it low energy. You are either
Forced to leave one of uer damage tiles for it
You actually have to give up a sync tile for it unless she's 4/5
Nah yknow what
NY Lisia has the slight upper hand
Because of Super Sync 9
It's to better sell you the anni unit with universal circle extension
koraidon real
I think ny lisia will be better than nemona
Because technically infinite Sun + Paldea Circle is OP?
Idk
no
On paper, yes, but I don't want to make my life miserable trying to fish a 10% miss late in the battle, plus I don't have invested wally so I don't think double b move is even an option for me to being with
Doesn't she have Sync Burst?
It's only once
fair
only 1 mpr ain't very good
Doesn't sync spam give you like 2 syncs under weather without extension?
Ss gladion finisher however is really strong
However ny Lisia still has a not too shabby giga impact
still it's a limited window of power for her
It was moreso a comparison on the MF units than meta.
Nemona sync should be stronger, but gladion b move is stronger, but I don't know if they can sync the same amount of times and if nemona can spam b move
A strong finisher is always valuable
NY Lisia is stronger than Nemona thanks to Super Sync 9
However ny lisia has 80% crit no circle and giga impact is single target
Again, we are not looking at nylisia. We know she is stronger, but this is in regards to people who would want to pull nemona for DC
pretty sure her b move anim is looooong so she can't spam it
simply crit.
Ok
who tf pulls for dc
You'd be surprised
There are people who pull for a variety of reasons. Some you wouldn't think of.
Are we sure ny Lisa is the best (potential) option ?
I guess some pulled Greta just for battle rally
I mean, what else you got for striker units? You got jigglypuff, Palserena and paldawn, uhhh SS Gladion, and...... um..... 
BP Valerie is accessible to everyone
wdym
I mean the battle for the best will definitely be between gladion, lisia and nemona
serena and dawn are techs but dawn is really just a support in disguise
I meant striker gdi
oh
Better than Mina or base Valerie. Not to mention, Swords Dance gives her SEUN.
Brain went faster than typing

pretty sure his rock was actual garbage before diantha
tbh mina sucks to set up
Also Summer Lyra has a sync multiplier for Sleep 
I expect BP valerie to hit 500k at best
isnt it double pecking order with only charm and has to copy enemy stats
What setup? she just has brawn sync and doble down
Imagine sleeping a paraed unit
penny
Summer lyra has the most nonsensical kit of all the game
Tm that heals when asleep (but doesn't have rest) sync that puts opponent to sleep after doing damage, but sync multiplier that wants them already sleeping
No sing
Diantha would have a rough time, slow setup and her only sync multipliers are Sp. Atk drop and Double Down
I think they where pretty high when they designed her kit
SS Wally practically fixes fairy DDs with Devastation
But back then she was the best fairy regardless because the only alternatives where grid less Valerie and mina
Yeah, and then Anni Lillie came along and she was unironically good for Ghost/Fairy despite lacking multipliers
Too bad because I really like Jigglypuff, and Summer lyra outfit is really nice, but her kit is just nonsensical conflicting garbage
She needs to SD 3 times unless you have another support use her TM twice unless you have another support, and then you need to debuff def for max damage potential for all three. For f2p, you would need colress but the only better option to fufill bp valerie's need faster is Hilbert at 3/5 so you don't waste turns on TM.
Maybe i'm just overthinking it and it could be good, idk.
The good news is that she's probably gonna be a "F2P" unit by September from the new Daily Scout system
Good luck of that dropping on dailies
give her a break, she released before the game was even a year old iirc
Summer Lyra needs a way to put herself to sleep
Gi e summer lyra a SCGuzma treatment where she forces herself to sleep from a sync grid passive.
doesn't Hilbert+ colress get her fully set up?
Older units are still better, including Steven, Xmas siebold and Rosanta
is she even better than bp val....
No lol
Her only sync multiplier is tied to sleeping targets
Not sure she's better than og Valerie
it explains some badness of her kit at least
She was the 1st strike fairy, they had to make her terrible to powercreep her later
BP Val at least has Double Down and Brawn Sync, Brawn Sync just needing Attack is very easy
i enter this channel to see the best comp for my run but the first thing i saw is how dare you disrespecting lyrapuff!!
1st strike fairy was Valerie, but she's quite terrible
How many sync mults does she have
is it disrespect if it's the truth....
only 80% huh
Villa is dead now tho 
if only villa existed
Maybe if they give her an extension and she gets proper sync multipliers like brainpower and super powered 9
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
I'd use this no?
Oooh, I appreciate this!
Why you need play rough not 2 atack for sync?
i cant wait to somehow end up with 4/5 summer lyra a year from now
i cant wait to somehow end up with 2/5 cynthia a year from now
You can swap out Melony for Elio. SS Diantha only needs to use Rock Tomb once because Redlax and Elio can give her the remaining +4 attack and +2 crit for her.
yeah idk if this'll work
it's either 64k-74k range
if only I had soften up
maybe defense drop would be higher
yeah idk, the best i got was 918K
In general Redlax and Melony isn't the best together bc the gauge.
Oh gosh, what am i gonna do with that xD
I used redlax and colress
5/5 bruno
2/5 steven ig, or 3 maybe
Definitely can get more than 700k with chase
Gordie became the star of this one
The highest score I think is SS diantha, but Gordie is accessible
Yea, Gordie shines a lot in this one
My 1.25M score with him, SC Steven and Melony is somehow enough to be in top 300 🙃
What's the best team for NY Lisia?
I think most ppl just don't want to try anymore when they pass 1M.
If only I had Redlax
I'm trying this challenge with SS Diantha, BP Barry, and SS Steven, but I can't get much higher than 300,000.
Is there anyone on my roster I could replace Steven with? His B-move's animation is too long, and he can't give Diantha Atk or Crit, so she has to use Rock Tomb three times.
use Gordie instead of Diantha probably
sure you lose EX but you gain actual multipliers
i generally think of ice as my weakest type bc rock is just suffering for pairs overall, but this dc has taught me otherwise. is my best move here to throw orbs and levels as grant for double down 2 + weather sync up (with sun for minimal lost speed) + cakewalk if i dont think theres a speed-efficient way to get the flinch multiplier, or roark for double down 5 + haymaker?
i tried a sand team and didnt even break 50k. humiliating lmao
weirdly I think yes Grant is the better play than Kukui due to no innate
yeah, kukui was the sand i tried bc he has leer to get to berserk 2 +6 super fast
i'm honestly not sure
but it was just such paltry damage and i lost so much time to the sand
Grant has way worse set up and a lower attacking stat, but more multipliers
this could also just be DPS race strength
i technically have enough tickets to pick up nemona, regirock, or bp olivia if they would be worth here given the lineup but i was trying to wait as long as possible to cash those in for both anni + insurance if i truly need one
like, Grant needs full offensive babysitting, a weather setter, full speed drops, and flinch for his nuke
i have bp barry as my paraspammer so i would probably bring gordie for max move to set sun and speed help (tho he cant help with buffing grants stats at all)
i dont think that would work
Kukui also just kinda does all his multiplier setup himself
rip to the days when olivia was the s tier lol
barry's critical buffing is slow and Grant would have 0 in the way of attack buffs
I think Kukui is just better for you right now
even though he is without an innate
i mean kukui is cakewalk only that isnt sand, no native - thats still worth?
i trust yall
if you think so i'll rig that up
im just surprised
sand blaster is only 50%, you can probably work without it
you're not gonna be getting a particularly great score, but i think thats your best shot
and if you need it, Acerola is right there
i have exr redlax for sync 1 to be no damage but 2x buff + sprint so
exr redlax bp barry kukui it is
something like this probably as a core for Kukui
crit infliction might not be needed tho?
with redlax, probably not
yeah his sync cant crit anyway right?
it can
it can just at a reduced rate from regular attacks
ah
at +3 critical rate you get 80% chance with most sync moves
gotcha
some characters just have guaranteed crits built in, others have a passive called Soften Up which makes it so you get boosted crit rates for your sync moves
i do know that much
selene and bea are the ones i think of in that regard
in the sync move crit builds
but i thought it was contingent on like, the move itself that the sync was
so til!
nah, its just a sync thing
a few have boosted critical rates innately as well, Cyrus and Sidney are the ones i know of
right cyrus yeah
alright dont think i can fit in his other +atk tile but
also is there a particular optimal max move timing or is it just use the mp and when you run out gmax replenish
pretty much just use it to MP Refresh i think, you can use Max Moves to delay queues normally but i dont think that comes into major effect here
it is an extra 50% power on his sync move. If you find yourself using him often, then its not a bad idea for him
if its just for a rock damage challenge event, i'd probably hold off
i tend to use him for csmm bc leer, barrier break, self buff, etc
but i also dont really use him as a damaging sync per se
so that aspect would be just for dmg challenge
ftr barriers are ignored by Critical Hits anyway, so you don't really need to break them
true
i'd probably hold off on the EX in your situation anyway
im not a 15k-er i aim for 8k to get the rewards i care about but yeah
alr, much appreciated
what’s ss gladion’s most optimal team for this
probably melony ss blue lol
i have him 3/5 exr and also have most of his common teammates
not ss blue
nc blue
too many blues
maybe penny or wally could slot in for zone/rebuff respectively
i have penny ss wally ss mina ss hau
then you'd probably go to bp barry instead of melony
i could see wally/gladion/barry or penny/gladion/barry
then again teams'll for sure be posted once reset rolls over so you can always copy them
adrenaline 1 ss wally with sprint exr 😍
quick -4 sp atk to all enemies for gladion’s multipliers
true!
-6 spatk at 3/5
im only 1/5 sad
but i am exr
gladion can handle the rest i guess
he needs to attack to activate his b move anyways and you probably want to use it twice
Ppl are aiming for missing it lol.
So who are the suspects for the new DC tomorrow?
ss gladion
and ss nemona who drops during the dc (curious!)
volo might also help just to stack pmun/smun and set circle and zone w sync but dont use his b move it takes 10000 years
his innate passive “circle: team s move ^ 3” is pretty good
Best team will easily be colress/ss wally/NYLisia
this has 0 supp ex though
Don't need it.
Ss wally can rush sync so fast that it will easily be a support sync
Plus NY lisia is guaranteed SEUN each sync, so you will easily make up the difference
mmmm i am skeptical
Why? Ss wally gives aoe rebuff + zone
lisia is the odd ball here
How is she the oddball?
i think gladion is just better
She literally gains seun each sync.
so can summer n
he wasnt the best unit for dark
That's because his sync multiplier was accuracy drops which is very strict
not really
he only needs -1 accuracy
and he has a tile on his grid which gives it on entry
his better multiplier is devastation
Also summer N did get 1 mil so.
i know
i got 1 mil with summer n lol
he still wasnt the best
you claimed ny lisia was the best
Did you not read the reply?
They said and I quote:
What is the best team for NY lisia?
oh bruh

you started implying she would be better than gladion
When did i ever say ss gladion?
-6
Hello it’s discourage 2 
Penny?
my penny also 1/5
got a whole slew of 1/5 fairy utility units
i do have ss mina 3/5 but she is a defensive unit i don’t think she’s the key here
@mortal flare @icy pendant ty for the guidance!!
may not be anywhere near what most of yall are pulling in but
so far my best is ssr cynthia just shy of 600k on ghost so breaking 100k is :D
now its just debating if i can make a second 300 before tierno's fighting so i can have marnie focus blast spdef debuff AND bluekazam or if i should pull her now and wait on bluekazam bc its not like i dont have bp barry + lucian if all else fails...
if it's a score you're happy with, that's the most important thing. Nice one
given the paucity of what im working with roster-wise and attempting to save my tickets for the units like lenora post-anni (hence not trying to pull more for gordie, but also just in general) 100k works for me :)
we'll see how that changes once i join the elite class of 'having a neochamp in my roster' dfhjkgdfh
You can use Galar tickets right now bc no new Galer genpool would be added in anni.
there's a doc 
Nothing answers my question directly XD
get a grid from someone's clear
Oh no.
Ny Lisia will be the most concerning unit to use actually.
Imagine your run is amazing, all your syncs crit, and you have enough to queue a giga impact...... but then you realize...
You can miss.
nah that's actually fine
"Increases the user’s Physical Moves ↑ Next effect by zero to three ranks at random." is the real problem
A seun giga impact is fine?
oops! giga impact at +0 pmun
Lmao
Epic
Rip soften up 1 lol
Hah

Now go ahead and snipe me bc I’m not caking Diantha, hoarding stuff for next hse 
I used gordie lmao
Yes next hse seriously need cakes if you don't have all the limited units.
(what's next hse/which are the cake units in question?)
presumably ground by what people are saying in #poma-lounge but
Still
Ground/dragon
Isn't debuffing it better?
Like
Also #1128052735967764621
I don't see anything too big
Did not want to deal with rock wish animation and stuff like that, got 1.4 mln with gordie and went away with that since there’s lg to farm
Not a particular unit but I’m hoarding daily tickets/rally vouchers for when it comes so I can plan the units and fully invest in them
Also just caked sslyra with field cake coins from daily rotations so it’s gonna take a while lol
Thx Dena for not releasing any pokefair with field ex role 
Well
I mean
It’s a good steal 
Critical mode too but i digress
I need more support + field (doesn't matter which is exr)!
It's insane I still only have 1 when all other combo I have at more than 3.
I gave a supp cake to Yarrdenia and she surpsingly hits like a truck lmao
don't worry they'll release one next update
yknow, when you'll pull on anni pairs instead of poke fairs
Damn
Skinny got 2 mil
Insane
I must be doing something wrong lol
No mattee
Got 1.2 mil and dipped
do you WANT me to use Anni Lillie on Ghost weak 
I mean Morty reached 1M in 3v3 and he's in genpool...
I think people just like seeing numbers go up
Or are afraid of not being able to reach that 1 mil
@merry nymph can you remove my pin about melony pls
i think people that care know about it now, and it kinda hides the important pins
ty

give pin perms to guide writers now 
aka message perms ik it's the same but we can be trusted 
Is dc blue meta spdef support for dc? I mean he does have thunder wave and he can lower sp def
I can’t really think of another good sp def debuffer for dc
Theres poppy but eh
I don’t have her
He can't spam himself so he needs another spammer.
For ST spdef drop I've seen ppl used SS Brendan, and he seems a better choice bc support/sprint + can paralyze too + only 3 turns.

I'd start with redlax melony and grab trip twice with diantha's grid
or honestly, that team probably wants elio over melony
One message removed from a suspended account.
Melony has severe gauge issue, and I don't think SS Dian's guage accelerate a little under rock zone can save that.
You need a proper speed support for Melony; otherwise you use Elio.

ya all ready for ss glad miss fishing simulator?
does gladion want to fire off 2 b moves or just 1?
2 is getting a good bit more value but it requires you to miss your second fluer that you need to activate the b move
going 2 b move allows for your last b move to have 3 smun
Grid accuracy though 
no you WANT fleur cannon to miss
Why?
faster
DC just zoom simulator
correct!
why do mediocre damage with a move when you could get halfway to a sync?
is this a bp barry ss wally duo, I feel like it is
One message removed from a suspended account.
I would think optimal is 2 rock tombs since the enemy has x speed all and you have trip wire 2 triggering twice, defense drop from red definitely isn't worth the effort

One message removed from a suspended account.
you have clicked diantha's b move before right? it takes ages
One message removed from a suspended account.
it's 50% more damage at max defense drops
It only worth if you're lucky with paralize
which involves spending a MINUTE clicking B move aka 2-3 syncs
2-3 paralyze for the cost of 1 B-move
3 might be right actually, 2 feels low for sure

tm should be fine once mega
it's a longish animation but should be shorter than 3 sings from elio

diantha gets the third sync at earliest though?

so you can delay that spdef raise a long time
Melony has +2 spdef from Max guard too
also redlax has a free mini potion at the start

Oh Okay
yeah redlax melony ss diantha has negative gauge
pretty sure his b move aoe does more damage than any aoe sync
the b move yes, the regular move no
I posted a weird plan earlier for SS Wally ss glad havers to get a 1.6 mil b move
wanna see?
wait how do you search for messages on a thread
it's so bad because it'll search across all the help threads
one minute
this damage distribution?
woah you really are a damage challenge fan aren't you, you have so many messages in mostly this thread lol
@icy pendant this is something that I think could work. Setup ss wally, ss glad fluer 1, bp barry para>ss glad tm, ss wally setup, bp barry starts spamming> sync bp barry>Bp barry spam> fz>Wally sync> wally b move> spam> wally move again>ss glad b move> fluer miss> spam> glad sync> x speed all twice, tm if it mpred and there's time? > b move
unfortunately I can't test it myself because I don't have ss wally yet (I can't wait for Anni select
think you're missing wally sprint exr but yeah
your sync cd is basically 3 after wally sync
You still need to click spore 3 times so I called it spam
Wally having so much accel is the only reason I think this idea can work despite the longer animations
yeah wally with sprint exr syncs and your countdown is at least at 4
adrenaline would get you down to 3
Wally sync iirc is stronger than aoe ss glad sync
5 sync boosts, 5 smun(6 if tm mpred and you have time) and seun from super syncer
yeah probably, gladion still needs 1 sync to reload
I find dc very intersting
my plan has one ss glad sync at the end to reload and get seun
I think I'd pop it second to last so you can still use sprint ex tbh
I highly doubt sync 7 is possible in this comp but ss glad b move damage alone should get 2 mil
hmmmm fair
