he pretty much has everything at 1/5 for dc. Extension is nice for non dc stuff but 1/5 chase has a lot of clears

#

he's an uber support for a reason

vagrant ivy
#

what does chase do this time

thin wren
#

that would be hilarious

vagrant ivy
#

I sent him to lance to fish for evasion procs

vernal condor
#

Oh yeah
Is the dragon stage status spammable or not

vagrant ivy
#

no

fiery rose
#

No

vagrant ivy
#

it is not.

fiery rose
#

The "they are immune" textbox takes ages

thin wren
#

smun

vernal condor
#

Rip

fiery rose
#

It is probably faster to spam attacks than status vs lance

jolly violet
thin wren
#

the optimal strat is still sync rush tho

vernal condor
#

Yeah

fiery rose
#

Yeah, but not with status

#

Stat moves

thin wren
#

cuz aaron(or oleana if you are rich)

pallid girder
#

Also venom drench.

fiery rose
#

Colress and Aaron are the main ones

thin wren
#

iirc skinny got 1.5 mil with lucas oleana and I think chase?

jolly violet
#

Venom Drench cost 2 gauge tho

FMN Screech spam

vagrant ivy
#

defend order spam huh

thin wren
#

single stat drop moves take as long as status in this dc

fiery rose
#

Works as well as twave

thin wren
#

nope

vagrant ivy
#

guess I could try that

thin wren
#

there's a large delay

fiery rose
#

Huh

#

I've never noticed a difference

thin wren
#

only double stat dropping moves or double stat buffing moves have the no delay

#

*the no delay

fiery rose
#

Ok yeah so I'm shafted to Aaron

thin wren
fiery rose
#

Tbh I'm not setting any records anyway

vernal condor
#

Just dont poison the opponents

fiery rose
#

My Dragon output is Zerena or Lisia

thin wren
#

@jolly violet I am cheering for you

#

Gl

pallid girder
#

F2P Drasna and dc Wally also get hit. Only Ryuki but he doesnt score that good w/o sing spam.

vagrant ivy
#

the difference between top 10 and top 1 is like 5m wth

thin wren
#

skinny has insane gears

hollow whale
#

789k for water and I’m out

thin wren
#

also 5/5 units

Holy moly

thin wren

Haha nothing like scoring high on your first fight and getting a crap ton of rewards all at once

vapid kernel
#

Maybe cus u dont hv enough debuffs

vernal condor
#

how many you need to max power play

thin wren
#

18

vernal condor
thin wren
#

Just like rising tide

vernal condor
#

so i didnt have max power play yikes

#

but that'd mean using 1 more water shuriken, i cant afford it, it's too slow

jolly violet

#

I'm happy yeah

I need to remember how I got a million here help

i hate this event so much

#

If you dont have the optimal fairy type you're fucked

azure hornet
#

5/5 on Penny and SS Wally is a difference between 3 Million and 5 Million

vagrant ivy
#

how much is BP val getting

#

I did 700k or so

crude burrow
#

Dragon type i only have zerena but she suck

#

And ground idk how well i Can do with that roster

vagrant ivy
#

bro you have arc cynthia 2/5…

crude burrow
#

She's only doing like

#

Youngster 2*

vagrant ivy
#

I have her 1/5 and she got over 700k with 1/5 ss gio

#

with bp barry as the enabler

#

I can def get 7 digits if I give her the EXR tho

vapid kernel
#

Never knew

What should I cook for dragon and ground DC (I have colress, EX BP Barry, and EX 3/5 normal red without EXR

vagrant ivy
willow flume
#

Menlony is the new Colress?

vagrant ivy
#

after that you set sand, max move and spam B earthquake

willow flume
#

I dont understand how she lower the sync quickly

vagrant ivy
#

you could also roll for a TM mpr on ss gio

willow flume
#

What are you supposed to spam?

lone pond
#

i think it's sing spam

willow flume
#

Ohh

vagrant ivy
#

sand eats up a lot of time

#

and I’m not confident that b p barry is the best spammer for that stage either

turbid vault
#

So what's the best team not including Ludicolo?

#

For the water one

vagrant ivy
#

people have used ss lysandre

willow flume
#

I tried NCerena

#

Only got 500k

willow flume
#

She is single target focused

don't think i saw anyone beating this without dahlia?

I don’t have the EXR so can’t comment much on that

#

Lmfao is this real

#

Drasna is build like this

vagrant ivy
#

the chase-melony team core really took off in recent DCs

thin wren
#

what's the suprise

bright niche
thin wren
willow flume
#

Chase kanto circle that good?

#

Whats chase play?

vagrant ivy
#

evasion

willow flume
#

Support + sprint?

thin wren
#

Chase is usually paired with melony

tulip lichen
bright niche
vagrant ivy
#

then despair as you watch brutal swing miss everyone but chase and he wastes 2 seconds healing

willow flume
#

I’ll check out their grid later

vagrant ivy
#

any experienced chase player should know

thin wren
#

he paralyses and provides a ton of gauge for melony and gives the team 1.2x damage boost

tulip lichen
thin wren
#

also evasion

tulip lichen
#

You toxic, that’s for sure

thin wren
tulip lichen
#

And then idk

#

Go brrr

tired narwhal
#

Who should I prob use for DC?

bright niche

thin wren
tulip lichen
#

Can kris do 1 mil

bright niche
#

Yes

thin wren
#

2 mil

#

1 mil is for full f2p comp

#

Yeah no idk what's wrong with me

Lmao

Arc Cynthia is mid smh

is she exr’d aswell?

thin wren
cloud timber
#

non-exr maxie

vernal condor

Dont let me cook

crude burrow
thin wren
clear walrus
#

Oh so you just didnt cook 😭

crude burrow
#

I HAVE BEEN TRYING SINCE THIS MORNING

thin wren
vernal condor
#

I was trying stuff ok

crude burrow
#

Is there anyone else that's better than Barry for that stage

#

Because im starting to lose it

tired narwhal
clear walrus
#

this was my first time using her since i pulled her, its a pretty bleh score tho tbh

tired narwhal
#

Ik they are support but like

clear walrus
#

ill have her 2/5 later if i get her to 3/5 i yhink i can do a lot better

#

im all new to this dc stuff too

tired narwhal
#

Eh just EXd them fuck it

tulip lichen

#

What can a 2/5 SS nemona do to cynthia without any paldea allies ☠️

jolly violet
lone pond
crude burrow
#

I truly give up

jolly violet
lone pond
#

well, what would be the best ideas for them though

tulip lichen
#

Lucas?

#

He has Tech EX so that’s already some damage

#

Either him or Lance

frail owl
#

2/5 cynthia can do 1.5-2m. Just use para sing comp

clear walrus
tired narwhal
#

So how does egg blastoise add 200k more damage than using May?

cloud timber
#

playing better

#

blastoise holds no advantage over may but no disadvantage either

tired narwhal
#

So it was just the person themself

simple spruce
#

What’s the strat for the arc suit lance damage challenge?
Is it still sing/twave spam because he’s status immune

#

And it takes more time now

jolly violet
#

Or Colress replace BP Barry and 1 Ex support pair with def drop

clear walrus
#

Ahhh okay that makes sense thanks!

pallid girder
#

For 1/5 ArcCynthia, wouldn't bmove spam score better?

thin wren
thin wren
#

aaron defend order spam

dusty ivy
#

What do

fiery rose
#

"my roster sucks, I don't think I'll be able to do shit here, 1m would be great"

dusty ivy
#

Lance makes status moves take a year

dusty ivy
#

K

simple spruce
#

Finally the Aaron strat

fiery rose
#

Yeah it's basically defend order and SSAC, and pray your damage is self sufficient

hollow whale
#

1,4 combined for sparring and I’m out

fluid anvil
#

remind again why Aaron ? sing spam too slow on Dragon 3v1 ?

hollow whale
#

Lance’s rule

fluid anvil
#

F

lone pond
#

you cant status him os its pointless

hollow whale
#

Delays all status effect spam by a LOT

dusty ivy
#

Lances rule fucks status strat

fluid anvil
#

so no 15M

dusty ivy
#

Any other units possible?

#

Or only Aaron

lone pond
#

instead you have to do other insta delay

cloud timber
#

ss steven

thin wren
#

@fluid anvil adam got 13 mil so maybe 15 mil?

lone pond
#

MAYBE there are others, but aaron+ssac is the first discovered i think?

thin wren
#

oleana 5/5 is faster iirc

fiery rose
#

Anyone who buffs or debuffs 2 stats natively and can maintain gauge

thin wren
#

but it's.....5/5 oleana

fluid anvil
thin wren
#

No

cloud timber
#

5/5 oleana would be about on par with bp barry

dusty ivy
#

Iron defense*

cloud timber
#

0 setup but not the fastest

thin wren
#

probably won't reveal until after ranked

cloud timber
#

cosmic power

fiery rose
#

SS Steven spams Cosmic Power I think

dusty ivy
#

Hm

thin wren
#

@dusty ivy iron defense only buffs 1 stat

#

so it's much slower

fiery rose
#

Single-stat buffs have a delay on em for this

dusty ivy
#

Wait what

#

Why’s it so complicated

fiery rose
cloud timber
#

bc it be like that

thin wren
dusty ivy
#

Well I guess I can’t use irida to debuff spdef

fluid anvil
#

13M is a lot, wouldnt that require getting at least 5M with Arc Cynthia ?

fiery rose
dusty ivy
#

Rip

fiery rose
#

The damage was the issue

thin wren
fiery rose
#

Zerena is still my best dragon output for ST

cloud timber
#

adam is not pulling the arc fairs

dusty ivy
thin wren
#

Maybe he changed his mind

fiery rose
#

Bc the EXd competition is fucking 1/5 Drasna or Lisia

thin wren
#

highest st dragon was 2.5 mil or smth and fairy was 6 mil

fiery rose
#

And Lisia is... Dogshit for this.

thin wren
#

that leaves 4.5 mil to ground

dusk plume
#

Chase + Oleana is surprisingly viable

cloud timber
#

yeah then prob

fluid anvil
#

13M is only possible with both full Gladion 6M team + Arc Cynthia (whatever her max score is), there is no other option
and Lucas for 3-rd ?

thin wren
#

Probably

snow patrol
#

Wait that mawile is good for cynthia?????

thin wren
#

Highest Lucas I saw was 1.5 mil from skinny and highest nate was only 1.4 mil

fluid anvil
thin wren
#

huh

#

what

#

no way

#

Oh wait I read that wrong

#

I read nc blue as nc nate my bad

thin wren
#

he only takes 5 anims before becoming as fast as melony

young tartan
#

dumb question

#

for next stage

#

is Akari better than SS Zinnia?

#

dark solo

thin wren
#

@last stream hey, would you mind adding Aaron to the pins. Please

#

no

misty forge
young tartan
#

oof

cloud timber
#

i think it went up to 2.8m at the end, jp user took over single dragon

thin wren
#

Many people don't know about Aaron and he's been somewhat relevant recently and very relevant here

misty forge
#

Also buff spam is slower than sing spam

#

Iirc

thin wren
misty forge
#

And he has a useless TM

thin wren
cloud timber
#

correct, you don't use it

cloud timber
#

1 bar spam that cancels animation at +6 defenses

thin wren
#

Have you heard about his ranked deeds ?if not I will explain

misty forge
#

Trying to advocate for defend order spam

young tartan
#

dumb question: who is a better nuke: Field Giovanni or SS Giovanni (looking for an excuse to candy Giovanni to 3/5 🤣 )

cloud timber
#

no accuracy check unlike sing and status

misty forge
#

Well he's definitely better for paraless clears

fluid anvil
#

Aaron is fast but using NC blue/chase also let you save Lucas's TMs for SEUN fishing. 2.5M+ is probably not possible on ranked
and the first 5 defend orders being slow makes him slower overall than melony
Also if he got godly para rng with Cynthia and got her to sync 4 times - that could be ~6M. 3 syncs is 4.5M

sucks that we wont know until later, if at all

misty forge
#

But those are the meta so...

cloud timber
#

dragon ranked penalizes status with huge delay

#

that's why aaron is relevant now

thin wren
#

@last stream so basically since Lance has a long window after a status fails, status spam is bad against him. So the strat for lance has been aaron(or 5/5 oleana but we don't talk about her).
Aaron when defences are maxed(takes only 5 anims at most ) has a spam about as fast as all hit melony spam and he has support ex. He's relevant in cases like Lance or in certain cases @cloud timber knows more about

tulip lichen
#

Insane

misty forge
#

Yeah but him being relevant in a super niche specific condition doesn't make him a unit worth mentioning in general imo

tulip lichen
#

That’s my second highest score ever

thin wren
#

he's worth mentioning

brazen dew
#

What is kris' highest?

thin wren
#

invert has used him outside dc quite well in fire aoe

misty forge
#

1.something

cloud timber
#

1.2m?

brazen dew
#

Teammates?

#

I got to 800k with bp barry and red

misty forge
thin wren
misty forge
#

Only because he works it doesn't mean he's good enough to stand out

#

Like, by that reasoning any sing spammer should be in pinned

cloud timber
#

if your team wants sand or sun you can use aaron alongside paulo or ss morty

tired narwhal
#

Most annoying thing is going to skip a move animation, and somehow I’m pressing fucking water pulse for egg blastoise

cloud timber
#

though sand's delay makes it usually not great

#

but much better than it would be without aaron

thin wren
#

what sing units are there other than rosa melony and Elio again

#

and I mean specifically sing cuz 1 bar

misty forge
#

Does it matter that it's 1bar

long silo
#

I'll try to fish two SEUN MPR later

young tartan
#

how helpful is SC Steven at 2/5? I have him at 1/5 and I was wondering about candying him for DCE?

thin wren
#

1 bar makes it twice as spammable

misty forge
#

I mean there's always stuff like MGR9 agatha

thin wren
#

mgr9 doesn't proc on fail

misty forge
#

It doesn't?

thin wren
#

or you would see agatha everywhere tbh

misty forge
#

Mhhh

thin wren
#

nope

cloud timber
#

and even if it did it's just worse bp barry again

thin wren
#

Wish hypnosis was 1 gauge

#

Agatha has her own para and speed buffs

#

she would have been goated

long silo
hollow whale
#

Wait hypnosis is 2 gauge?

thin wren
#

yep

hollow whale
#

Why lol

bright niche
#

Why spamming sing or thunder wave against Lance is comparatively slower than the normal DC ???

tired narwhal
#

Good enough

thin wren
hollow whale
long silo
hollow whale
#

Making it slower

bright niche
#

I see

thin wren
simple spruce
#

About as good as I got with Nate which is more than I thought with the whole status nerf thing

thin wren
#

they specifically designed Lance this way btw

young tartan
long silo
#

A premium one would be Oleana spam

thin wren
#

they could have copied the cs param

young tartan
#

team debut dash and super duper effective mp refresh sounds nice

bright niche
thin wren
#

but they purposefully coded it very differently

young tartan
#

especially for dark and steel solo

cloud timber
#

there's no visible passive causing the delay either, first time you're facing delay without a visible passive

thin wren
#

Lucas.

misty forge
cloud timber
#

they intentionally nerfed status for this

sharp roost
#

Dahlia is the Besto water unit for this DC?

bright niche
#

Yea

thin wren
sharp roost
long silo
young tartan
#

for dark solo, who would u recommend?

misty forge
#

I'm still pretty sure the self buff fail cast is significantly slower than the other spams, as I tried something like it with CM and it was just worse

long silo
#

Uhhhh. Idk if Lodge Cheren can reach 1m

lone pond
long silo
#

Actually idk too who is the Dark 3v1 prime candidate

#

For premium I guess Cyrus?

cloud timber
#

if it's not aaron or ss steven you're working with two bars which are incredibly hard to supply the gauge to

simple spruce
#

The downside is no defense debuffs but it is pretty fast for sync stuff tbh

fluid anvil
thin wren
#

20 seconds per sync

cloud timber
#

yeah same thing as olympia which i tried

thin wren
cloud timber
#

even 30% free move isn't a whole lot on its own

misty forge
#

I also used oleana empty debuffs

#

For poison 3v1

#

Worked wonders too

thin wren
#

cm is 2 bars right?

azure hornet
#

Such a time sink but I'm happy with this for now

cloud timber
#

yep

thin wren
#

twofer also allows it down

misty forge
#

But I don't really think it's worth mentioning

#

As a valid strat

thin wren
#

It's been used enough

misty forge
#

Just because it works in extremely niche situations

vagrant ivy
#

I’d rather DPS with lucas and cyrus than sync rush with 1/5 lucas

cloud timber
#

top 1 uses oleana just for empty venom drench

vagrant ivy
#

he just doesn’t do enough to justify it

thin wren
#

It always works , just slightly worse than the tops

#

still worth mentioning

long silo
#

So for Oleana I just grab Twofer?

cloud timber
#

if you have 5/5

misty forge
#

Mine is 3/5

long silo
#

I do. So is the reason I am failing last time is the unit is poisoned?

#

I tried it before and oh my god it's so slow

cloud timber
#

yes poisoned units will cause animation to play

thin wren
#

@fluid anvil btw 1.5 mil is the highest I have seen for ranked st dragon from skinny but I am fairly certain adam got more

long silo
#

Gotcha

fluid anvil
thin wren
#

oh and I saw Cynthia breaking 4 mil earlier today

cloud timber
#

def seen success with oleana venom drench below 5/5 but idk the details that well

dusk plume
#

does Oleana really need Twofer to spam?

tired narwhal
#

For ranked challenge, who can I replace Egg sylveon with?

thin wren
#

on a first attempt

tired narwhal
#

When using Barry and Valeria BP

dusk plume
#

I tried 3/5 Oleana and 1/5 Chase, seems viable given MGB MPR

thin wren
last stream
cloud timber
cloud timber
#

they made a special rule for dc

thin wren
#

it works differently @last stream

last stream
thin wren
#

ghey me changed it specifically to counter status spam

sacred badger
last stream
#

Oh, it's active now so I guess you guys checked. IrisDerp

thin wren
#

That's why aaron(well oleana but that requires 5/5 and chase lmao) is the meta for Lance

cloud timber
#

yea

tired narwhal
#

Who can I replace egg sylveon with

thin wren
#

I think it's pretty clear that dena knows about status spam

tired narwhal
#

When using Barry and bp Valerie

last stream
#

Sorry, I've been running around updating a bunch of stuff for guides, didn't take a look at here too closely.

bright sequoia
#

who to use for water event? 🤪

thin wren
#

no problem

long silo
#

I don't have Chase (yet) so I need someone else to use with Lucas

thin wren
#

that's why I pinged ya since you might not have enough time to search through everything

tired narwhal
last stream
#

Is there a short clip of this that I can pin to illustrate it?

thin wren
tired narwhal
#

I don’t have good memory of units that do that. Only snorlax red

thin wren
#

btw aaron has move gauge accel on entry

#

so his spam has less issues early on

last stream
#

what's the team with aaron?

cloud timber
#

which procs on sync

bright sequoia
tired narwhal
#

Am I wrong or are there only fair clears in the guide for ranked DC

#

Fairy*

thin wren
cloud timber
#

most common aaron team is with ssa cynthia to max defenses in one turn

thin wren
thin wren
last stream
#

Queue Penalty can be avoided when a status move that raises more than 1 stat, is completely maxed. In this example, Aaron is trying to buff Defense & Sp.Defense and failing, due to Cynthia already providing maxed Defenses.

lone pond
#

This is too funny lol

echo axle
#

Any decent team for challenge

tired narwhal
cloud timber
#

it is now 6 am where i am and i have no business being awake so shleep

fluid anvil
#

SSA Cynthia is optimal for Aaron
but 5/5 Oleana > Aaron

thin wren
lone pond
#

I swear B Fluer Cannon keeps doing even more damage every time i try it again

dusk plume
#

trying some different Oleana team comps - Oleana can max team speed with MGB, I think with fast teammates + MGA she can sustain 3 minutes of move spam

vast glade
#

@warped gulch I have NC Bianca with EXR and managed to get this

dusk plume
#

would be nice if I had anyone stronger than Zerena to test it haha

vast glade
#

Only didn't do better because SC Steven didn't refresh SEUN

#

But I did managed to sneak in a final disrespect Scale Shot before timer rans out WEEZing

edgy hemlock
#

Can I get some help vs Cheren pls

real wind
#

Atleast its a decent showing compare to the last DC Ranked

fervent fable
#

Could be worse to say idk the meta

ivory kestrel
#

I cant duplicate my 2M SS Gladion run lol. But this works for me

dusk plume
#

tried a couple of different teammates to pair with 3/5 Oleana, in case anyone's interested

#

I used 1/5 Chase, 2/5 SS Silver, 2/5 Larry, and 3/5 SS Steven (although I didn't touch his grid so not sure if the move level matters a lot)

#

all were able to sustain Oleana move spam given good MPR luck

#

I was using Zerena for damage so she also needed to use a 4-gauge move for restrain, but zone setters (eg Lucas) shouldn't have any gauge issues

thin wren
#

you don't have anyone other than zerena right?

dusk plume
#

only 1/5 pairs

#

2/5 Ryuki and 3/5 Drasna, but I don't know if they'll perform any better

#

here are the scores for those teams, which def outperformed my Aaron Zerena team

thick stump
#

so i'm guessing my best bet is kris? 💀

vast glade
#

Can I do more or is there a more optimal team?

#

Wally was EXR

earnest wigeon
# vast glade Can I do more or is there a more optimal team?

Not having invested Wally and Penny? No problem! SS Gladion is all you need

There's not much to say here. Simply get enough mprs with x speed and tm to boost Gladion's special moves up next to the max and sync three times, with Gladion syncing last. If Penny is EX she should sync first but otherwise sync both times before the third with Wally

i didnt use her on the final team

i dont c her on any of the 3 teams

Don't use Melony on Lance

status immune makes her way slower than usual

Oh yeah lance cant b statused

i heard alot of ppl saying dont use status-es at Lance

thats why i used those 2

tiny mist

But wait

Do you have Oleana?

tiny mist

if u cant status lance

neat raft

lol no

tiny mist

that is good

since sing will just miss

I'm workshopping some Oleana teams with decent results

and u can spam it

without needing para

#

Whose better for current dc 1/5 ss lysandre or 1/5 cerena

tiny mist

Just put move guage refresh on melony for sing, and if u have a speed buffing support use it as third option

sharp roost
#

No, the status immunity legend that appears when you use sing takes too long

Is there a way to get a decent score?

Any tips to get this baby to million? Stupid 3 units so the sing technique won't work they'll still waste my time

plush palm

sing is still good

#

you basically are using it to just sit there and spam attakcs w/o animation

If I try to sleep them all, one always wakes up

You dont need to sleep anything

Can't do the sing sing sing sing then my sync move

Ok kris sucks

replace steven with a paralyze user

tiny mist
#

good team for water?

#

can cerena reach a million?

misty forge
#

For a freebie

tiny mist
#

i managed 600k with nc blue colress and kris

fluid wave
#

Okay paralyze. Then that goofy cat looking thing.

misty forge
#

1/5 SC Steven + BP Barry

tiny mist
#

I dont have sc steven man

#

Can cerena reach a mil?

misty forge
#

I mean you can probably make colress + another support work

frail owl
#

kris reaching 1m is still bad tbh, because barry can also hit 1m, a 3* unit SophoKEK

#

yes cerena can reach 1m

misty forge
#

He has nothing else

tiny mist
#

Ok let me try barry, since he works well with NC blue

misty forge
#

Those units always work best in DC

tiny mist
#

Kris has many more multipliers than barry

frail owl
#

kris still great for f2p but i expect more tbh, something like 1.3-1.4m

tiny mist
#

Haymaker Inertia super powered

frail owl
#

barry can't even use cakewalk in this

warped gulch
#

Ngl, yeah Kris deals less than i expected

#

But maybe bc her Atk stats isn’t that nice

#

325 Atk at EX level 140

frail owl
#

barry sp atk 460 DawnNom

thick stump
#

i got 1 mil with dojo gloria

like literally 1.03 mil

#

barely over the cutoff

#

gonna just keep it with that lol

warped gulch

By a lot too

#

75

frail owl
#

some of the old units has really high offensive stats, but no multiplier so they are still mid

copper otter
#

Chat, were we right about the Dragon stage being a buff?

#

or is it actually miserable?

plush palm
#

its ok

#

i guess? i hit 900k first attempt w/ lucas

copper otter
#

I meant with sleep failing

#

like is it just as fast or is it slower due to the message?

plush palm
#

slower

copper otter
#

OOF i called it LarryDead

misty forge
#

It would've been way worse if it was on any of the other 2 stages anyway

#

Dragon can just max enhance

#

And destroy

How the hell do you do damage challenge

copper otter
fluid wave
#

They won't sleep

wise mulch
copper otter
#

that's the point.

thin wren
#

you aren't supposed to make them sleep

fluid wave
#

I paralyzed them all but they still have turns to waste my time

copper otter
#

you're sync rushing with sleep failing

vernal condor
#

that team probably has gauge issue

wise mulch
#

Cynthia sandstorm makes it hard to spam moves

thin wren
#

you are supposed to paralyse them spam sing on them

#

also make sure your team has sand shelter

frail owl
#

yeah no gauge to spam sing, you need bp barry, colress or ncblue

wise mulch
thin wren
#

also 1/5 Cynthia won't do much

fluid wave
#

I did do that and they still attack me I thought paralysis makes them slower

frail owl
#

1/5 cynthia can still do 1m+

thin wren
#

huh

thin wren
#

wuh

fluid wave
#

No I just freaking hate damage challenge. It's just tactic game

copper otter
#

they still have gauge from earlier which is what paralyze is slowly getting rid of

thin wren
#

@fluid wave did all your units have sand shelter

fluid wave
#

That along with elite four and battle rallies

fluid wave
#

No I didn't put Bertha in

copper otter
#

it's basically damage optimization the mode. SophoKEK

fluid wave
thin wren

sand shelter is a lucky skill

wise mulch

if you don't use it and use Cynthia your sing spam will be much slower

#

YOU MEAN THE COOKIE?

The event will give me that, but that'll have to wait for days

tiny mist
#

what cerena or barry team reaches a million?

copper otter
frail owl
vagrant ivy
#

after “edging” the ranked DC for that bit of extra score, I reached 2m but only barely

#

here’s the potentially relevant pairs that might change things

tiny mist

running multiple DPS in one team is rarely optimal but I have yet to find relevant enablers for dragon and ground DC

so I’m afraid I have to leave it as is for now…

frail owl
copper otter
fluid wave
#

OK thanks. Do I need sand shelter for ALL 3 or cynthia s fine enough?

warped gulch
#

You need for sleeper at least

copper otter
#

Only the sleeper

#

because they're the ones spamming sleep

warped gulch
#

Cynthia already immune to sandstorm’s chip dmg

fluid wave
#

So I need to give the cookie to melony

#

not cynthia

copper otter
#

yes

#

Cynthia should have her Lucky cookie sand blaster 4

#

Unless you're DPSing with her

#

which may not be the greatest

fluid wave
#

I have her for Critical 2. Gotta wait dailies for the event free cookie T.T

#

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

i understand now

#

yeah... my melony was singing and getting hit

#

everytime

#

that's like extra each 4 sec wasted

Even if I did not get all sync crits im keeping this

HOW ARE THEY DYING????

fluid wave

I should level them

#

But that's still beside the point

copper otter
#

No no, they should be levelled up, the level recommendation is literally level 120.

fluid wave
#

Should I earthquake them 6 times before the singing technique

copper otter
#

No

thin wren
#

pic?

The paralysis and all that, they still attack me freely as they want to wasting my time

fluid anvil

GLADION DEFEATED
Dahlia at 6.3M+

thin wren

what

copper otter
#

that's the point. again, Paralysis is solely for sing to fail so you can constantly sync with Cynthia

fluid wave
#

Yeah I only earthquaked once, spammed for the syncs

thin wren
#

well ig dahlia had every multiplier except circle

frail owl
#

1/5 cynthia, sync with her 4 times because your support are not exed, para, then spam sing till sync, save cynthia tm for her last sync, and use bmove after the 4th sync

whats the strat for sync accel on lance?

I'm struggling hard to try and break 300k 😭

you really need 3/5 for SS Nemona for sync damage tbh

is it spam defense order?

yes. Max defs on Defend order is as fast as sing

Melon's sing runs out of move guage at the last minute and I even gave her 40% of charge through sync grid. Tips?

copper otter

that is the main downside of sing spam

#

that's when you have to start using her TMs as a way to at least ragin gauge

fluid wave
#

Tm meaning

copper otter
#

her Trainer Move

#

TM

fluid wave
#

She has one only lol ice beam

copper otter

that's not a TM

that's a pokemon move

snow patrol

Yeah my diantha is not doing the same level of damage nemona is 😭

fluid wave
#

Oh so safeguard and the other one

copper otter
#

Safeguard is ALSO a Pokemon move

#

any move not done by a pokemon is the trainer move

#

this includes items or their signature quote

echo axle
#

Is there any way to reach 500k?

fluid wave
#

Well they don't tell me what's what. So the "I ain't hold back" is tm?

copper otter
#

ues, on the profile of the trainer, tap and Hold the button of the move

#

it tells you there.

#

the profile icon is who uses it

#

and you'll see Melony instead of Lapras

fluid wave
#

It doesn't but I think I get it tm vs pm. Tm being more like potions and x speed etc

Oh ......

Arc cynthia is absolutely terrible in damage challenge 😅

she needs trap and sandstorm both cause extreme delays

NC Blue/Melony

The sandstorm and trap were causing way too much delay for me 🤣

Dont blue and melony get damaged by the sandstorm?

I have an idea i guess, dont use sandstorm until I absolutely have to sync with cynthia
