It just so inconsistent
I actually missed the last SEUN, but the enemy got paralyzed so I got an extra B Move to compensate for no SEUN on the first one lol
It doesn't matter the buff. It stalls regardless
That why i hate it, i rather using consistent strat unless i have no other choice
Akak random

This was the score (and with CS2) so can definitely be higher with SP3. But yes more RNG than necessary 
Like the f2p Elesa is really painful
Sometimes I hate my curious mind 
My clear on YT is 1m
I think that this is the highest Ash score rn?
Hmmm that's weird
But funny enough, she can go way higher
*5.2 mil
Just need some insane rng for 5th Sync lol
Wait he's 5.2? Last I saw it's 4.9 lol
HOW
Am i just bad at this
4 SEUN on Red's 4 syncs. Missed one more for +8PMUN B Move but the lucky para sort of made up for it and made me do one more B Move
Pykuo's method is way easier tho
check leaderboard
Did the run again, the number was 997,243 for the B move.
Can you share your red kit?
how much smun and did you have seun and max gauge?
It takes up time, but iirc someone does B Move spam because of their gear, and reached 1.5m
I think it was invert?
I Hope not since I right exr Lucas
It takes too much time so you don't have much time left to sync as much as possible.
Like
They only did two syncs, then just spam B Move
Lucas gave dragon zone and support boost, where Nate give Dragon zone long one time and circle
But Idk which is Better
So i just spam thundershock until sync?
Also gmax at start right?
It'll still be helpful in upcoming dragon/ground hse, so don't be sad.
Since in all case, it’s a sync waste for Lance
Ill try this
Yeah However I wanted to exr him
Thanks!

Praying for good Rng from Elio’s passive...
This was the vid for reference
This was slightly different from what I did, but way easier RNG lol
I support you. I also exr Lucas and it's not rly as bad like redditors said.
I wanted to EXR Lucas, but I have a queue for Support Cake
+3 sp damage up , super effective up and max gauge
Super Powered 3
https://youtu.be/h5Eotf5_09M for yall asking about ny volkner
The true best Electric-type Striker.
I saw Ash reaching 3,1M at best, ripbozo the rat.
Sygna Suit Hau is so much better but I only have him at 4/5 and I don't plan to cake him for now.

Oh damn
Definitely would have loved a 5/5 Volkner someday
Damn I should have done the select to at least 2/5 him 
If only seasonal and SC are allowed to have exr update...
SC Steven Support EXR cope
Inb4 sprint (his sync could lower countdown by 6 with adrenaline ls)
That can also work 
not too bad
Lmao
I want Petey meme
peta
Nah impossible
Leme do Petey maybe im bored
gl
What's the besr clear with Ash right now?
I wish we could see the rank on previous editions
3.7m I believe
So field or tech EXR would've blasted Hau
I think that's my limit with 3/5 SS Hau
A big part of it is the B-move at the end, so it'd be 2.7 million with B-move
wait whar wouldnt she just get normal zone
Elio why must you have the single WORST MPR IN THIS GAME

How 2.7M?
B-move does 999,999
tf is wrong with Elio, his passive activates so often when an unit is about to sync
Of course not in crucial moments
And rest from syncs
is elio better than melony
if you have gauge problems
Elio is better in certain situations
Like with Cerena back in 3v1 dark DC
Sync spam wise never. But if you main dmg dealer needs gauge or his buff he's not replaceable.
For example: SST Red
if you use ssr red YES
Red fucks up everything with his tm
Damn I didn't expect SST Red to be screwed with his AoE Gradual healing lmao
Also Rising Tide unit with poor self buff.
sc emmet
Which is the best team for sst red if we don't have NC blue??
Oh damn that kid's got hands
elio and a speed buffer probably
Elio + SC Steven
sc steven is a lot
Elio doesn't need speed buffer. It's his strength over Melony.
lol
yea sc steven can -6 def and speed which sst red wants
Any SEUN unit is passable, if you don't have SC Steven.
does sing work like that under electric terrain actually
like instantly fail?
i know it fails but is it like the instant fail
or the slow fail
well, if they’re paralyzed it shouldn’t matter nvm
Yes and ? That's great for her
if you ever sync with her
like its a strong sync but like isnt she mostly gauntlet shenanigans now
melony is better in there, no?
SST red is gonna be the king of electric ST yes?
or is there someone else i'm forgetting
Well in Gauntlet she appreciates the zone and the extra bulk 
I tried to use her in UBs but she demands so much
He's hitting the highest number now among all the st electric if I didn't miss anything.
He is
Ss hau with ex role is doing more damage than sst red
yeah cuz its 3v3
sst nuke is single target
against 3v1 he should be the best by a mile
Why sing and thunder wave spam has slower with sst red in this DC ??
With the worst mpr in this entire game
cuz his tm has gradual healing
you NEED elio and his mor
Oh fuck I have almost forgot
You CANNOT use sst red's tm
I don't believe so, I don't think you can get another sync in?
it completly fucks up everything
True
i feel sc steven + elio is better than c blue if you lack striker ex role
I mean if it can refresh at the start of the battle it's not the worst rng.
Cuz the setup is easier
So we have to use elio to almost maximize his attack Stat also NC blue is special
I find it funny that Hau only wins because of his EXR. Ash does 2/3 of Hau's sync without any EXR and him being a base striker. That's a win for me TBH
Why Ash b move has nerfed in DC
? ash b move still hits 999,999
It's not nerfed
It's just not like SS Gladion where it's all targets
Yup u r right but still not much score than expected
I mean no one will legitimately think SS Hau is better than Ash in every aspect just bc he outdmg him in dc.
I considered getting hau in the select scout cause he's eluded for ages, but decided Nah.
I'll do some resets on this over the weekend pretty sure Ash gets 3 mil +
Also sst red has cakewalk which takes time to setup
best i could do
But Ash still kinda fallen off imo.
He feels that way, but EXR exists
Ash is just a damage dealer. One of the best at that, but still just a damage dealer
Noice sc Steven meta
sc steven is easier i feel
Nowadays MF or Arc strikers do more and more bunker things.
sibce he debuff speed he's easier to use than c blue
cuz with c blue you have to thundershock 6 yimes
to have -6 for cakewalk
How many sincs did you do
i could have more but my sc steven is 1/5
You could easily get close to 2m
3 with sst red and one with elio
1 Elio + 5 Red + 1 B Move
i could but propelling mive 5 keeps activating
Okay ye that's bad 
@chilly prawn I think with melony you can get this too.
Sigh Why won't DeNA get permission to rerun Ash 
Wonder if arc steven will be any good
He will be good in the upcoming 3v1 steel DC
And Colress is the best steel nuker
hmmm maybe you can get an additional sync with melony it seemed too far so I didn't bother
Colress time
But if Arc Steven can reach 1m anyway then I can skip on making Colress EX
Even if SS Lear was here, Colress is still miles better
True. However, hypothetically SS Lear can brute force 1m
Not the best, but he can probably do it
Would love to know the configs for this run please !
Zone setting, V. Thorton might be the best
oh boy
The problem with him is his zone can run out
Can't get infliction freebie without using 5 energy
And i knew that bc i had that during 3vs3 Steel
is ash the 2nd best for this
Zone was gone before final Sync
Thorton is not a great zone setter

he sets it only once
he has support exr though
i would put c red
If you sync the second by field ex the zone last the entire battle if you're only spamming after that and no chip dmg to waste the time.
Not always
The Zone can run out

colress nuke is actually good
But -accurate isn’t that good when compared to +evasion 
Tell that to Cerena during dark 3v1 
Still worse than evasion bc i used Zinnia

I mean, do we have enough energy to pick if we also want full multiplier + spam tiles?
With extra energy, yes
You must pick it
This is what I got

Is Lillie good for single steel?
Why do you even take Tw mgr ?


PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
Oh yes he doesn't need team sentry entry anymore with the new teammates.
Arc Steven time
But atk
I mean for f2p, we still can use Hilbert for that
His new teammates is ArcSteven aka physical NC Blue.
Thank you
I still didn't get him
I hope I get him tmr

I tried Hilbert + Pmarnie in 3v3 and tbh it's not that good.
I meant about +2 Def tho
Hilbert can help him as a f2p option
so a million years ago there was a meta with kimono grimsley and bp sophocles
Anyone know how grimsley is doing here?
long time uh
iirc colress does better
yeah we didnt have colress then
Colress is one of those shitty dps but nuke like a monster tech
this is the dark ages
Kimono grimsley is very gimmicky but had a great nuke
Grimsley can hit 1M, but not better than Colress with the best build.
but i said that to lead into a question
You know i find it hilarious that tapu Kek is beating some rats. Man, red and ash are washed 
if i have to pick between ex og elesa (who has inertia and brawn sync) and bp sophocles (who has double down and tough sync)
i think og elesa still wins?
but i want to ask the brain trust before i assume
that and Colress being the one doing the fail animation skip makes you have a wider team
Arc steven is also perfect for colress
I mean Red isn't really washed bc we all know he's not gonna win in 3v3 anyway. Ash tho...
Rebuff twice
Raise the +2 defense colress needs
Also nukes hard
Symun
like a new version of the team with colress og elesa and elio or redlax would beat colress bp soph redlax
is what im trying to confirm
doesn't Og elesa do better
pretty sure she does better
Bp sopho needs defense buffs and elesa needs speed
Both needs a quick setup cuz theirs is slow
I just found out that Ash's Going All Out TM has a massively fast animation when it fails
bp soph has iron def for max def in 3 turns; elesa can x attack for +4 but only has faat track to raise her own speed
so you need someone who can max her speed rather than redlax or elio
His sync multiplier is way lower than Elesa.
ah ok double down + tough is less than inertia + brawn?
that what i wanted to confirm
per #1009557516369281075 shes queued up for ex so i just wanted to confirm
Inertia alone is already stronger than both of BP Soph's multipliers combined
god i wish i had ex sycamore
support sync and +6 speed
kalos villain event rerun when,,,,
Good lord, there's a Chinese guy with 5.5M points
... hm. pep rally marley gets to +6 in 2 turns and can block heat wave burns
hilbert has slippery not pep rally but can also get elesa to +6atk without needing to use her grid for mpr
Does mega evolution affects the opponent defensive capabilities?
but hes not ex. so the tradeoff is ex sync (skyla, who still needs an mpr for +6 speed) and mpr on xatk for elesa vs hilbert with mpr on xspeed all and no ex sync but fully set up sooner
Just use the team someone alr used and got 1M. Elio + Volkner.
I should have enough stuffs to exr both hau and Steven, for Lillie I'm 19/20 so she should be fine too
this is missing 2 special defense drops
if its base volkner mine is only 2/5
not sure how much more that would give me
if its lodge i can look into it tho
So melony should score similar to NC rosa
I guess 1 extra sync in exchange of a weaker b move
Mind games 2 ls?
yeah
I'll try to get a "good" run this weekend, but I'm not reseting for a 1/90 start right now
Problem is that you already need triple paralysis
I don't think og Volkner's sync move level matters. He's just a para and terrain setter bot.
How many syncs?
5
600k ranger
oh its not syncing with him? i see
Scored the same with still 3 + 2 but with 999.999 b move
Like I said hte special defense will play a pretty big roll with all the syncs, but getting it is annoying
3 mil is free base run with this comp though and I'm good with it
get the triple paralyze and roll the team you get 3 mil
I mean I still had -2 but maybe you offsetted weaker b move with Extra moves
Because I did the same number of syncs but with stronger b move, maybe I lost some sync damage with weaker gears or bad rolls
How many moves did you used after last sync?
Well there was an attempt 
she needs an exr badly
Best hau team is still melony and NC blue?
i think shes 3rd longest pokefair without a rerun now
wild they reran penny before her
Who hasn't been reran for a while besides her
gloria alt is now longest
I know Rei is approaching one year
1 yr is not that long.
then its ingo and diantha (though both are dated)
Nemona is 1 year + 1 month tho right
Ingo is still weird
Rerunning Rika over him who just debuted recently 
I mean it worked out for me but that's still weird
SS Gio and SS Cyrus had to wait way longer until their non paid rerun iirc. Almost 2 yrs?
they took a long time yeah
Yikes
Now I feel bad skipping Akari + Cyrus, but I was expecting an onslaught of MF reruns in August so I had to skip that
lear had to wait over 2 years too
Yes so Nemona can wait for another yr and it still makes sense in Dena's standard.
there is only time to use the final b-move after last sync
For damage challenge when to use sstred b move? Do I use immediate to set terrain/para like in normal content or do I wait
Start
SST Red's bmove neither para nor set terrain. Are you asking for max move?
Use his max move in the near end of battle to deal dmg. You para with NC Blue and terrain can set by his syuc and last for the entire battle if he has exr.
Max move is the one that sets it, but start ye. To paralyze the opponents
What you guys use it at start?
Also yukure i reached 500k i still don't know why I'm doing it wrong 😭
I used it to lessen the para RNG + take advantage of Max CD 3
Will it be possible for you to record
My battery is a bit low atm so maybe tomorrow
But I think a lot of SST Red runs do this
That's fine
Im playing with x1 speed does that affect it
That's optimal
No, the B move pretty much hits the million. 997k was the number on a test run I did. On my 3.76m run I was not paying attention to the b move number. If mind games 2 activates , that guarantees the million.
On my run it did not activate
Ye sorry I meant to say max lol
I was following invert's run who has the current highest score of sstr (from what I've seen) and they didn't use it at the start.
I can attempt if I feel like it, but I'm already satisfied by my current score
Oh wait.
Said score did not have NC Blue on it so I definitely had to use Max Move at the start 
But my first run that uses NC Blue, I did use it at the start too
okay guys quick question
lets say I have a 3/5 Ash
would i have more damage having 3 kanto teammates, or 2 kanto teammates and one e terrain setter
Master fair passives doesn't boost sync moves, while terrain it does by 50%
So terrain is always better
oh, so dont even worry about ash's passive then
Messed up the ending of the fight so didn’t get a final sync off (queued one too many sings) rip
Ok I actually can’t get better than this
Oh well
My team can prob do better than 540k
But it’s enough to get me silver from the shop today
(Wanted another flying zone for my Neo Cheren and SS Ethan teams)
Doesn't SS Ethan set zone already with EXR?
He does
cake expensive
dc silver is super good anyways
he might be the best dc pair
flying zone and aoe sp def debuffs
yippee, made it to rika 2 tier
surely i can do a little better though
Current team
He does but I don’t always run him on the teams
yeah i figured as much
are you spamming stun spore?
yes
might be an issue w ash’s grid then
its the 3/5 sync nuke template
huh
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
i’m confused as to how you arent hitting a million then
Show video of an attempt if possible
question: is que spamming the same in 3 vs 1 vs 3 vs 3?
its more effective in 3 vs 1 since the enemy moves slower
but it still works in 3v3
thats not what I meant
i would drop rejuvenate for trainer sync redemption
i meant on account of the enemy having more turns, should i be doing anything else besides spore spam between ques
you mean Not Gonna Lose is actually meant to be used?
yes
its got quite the windup
it gives him seun
like i could have sworn it ate like 10 seconds
maybe use it with 30 seconds left and then buddy move for a finisher?
this is the highest i’ve ever got in damage challenge but ik others are doing way better with this comp 🤔
Depends, what's your team?
I used NC Rosa to maximize Ash's MUN stacking, but I think Melony is better
Also damn Hau’s really strong, but I only have 1/5 lol
hes the best nuker for this dc with exr
Well, if Ash had his EXR, then he might be better than Hau
Wait, no, he is already better than Hau with EXR
I used Rosa too since I only synced with Blue anyways and Rosa is faster
And can give smun to Hau
Maybe only with field or tech EX R. If he would get anything else he won't surpass Hau
tech with strike exr too broken
It’s the best EXr combo ever, OG Tech w/striker EXr
anything w/ tech role is cope , except newer striker units i guess
Tech not only gives him stronger sync move, but also more stats for him so it's a general increase overall. Field is also a general increase, but you can just slot in Melony instead of NC Rosa
I gave my tech candy to complete 5/5 Oleana, I hope she becomes really useful vs future no-special conditions rankeds
wait a minute
think i found a way to boost my numbers
i was so busy spore spamming i didnt spore the other targets
when I have static shock
980k
sooo close
alr this is pre-ex with a ko wild charge to cap things off. went with skyla as my ex supp sync both for the +speed and bc i had forgotten she has fanfare on her grid so no elesa mpr needed. debating if fleet feet on elesas tm is preferable to aiming for skyla's mpr since that only procs once while elesa's procs every time you tm so i assume you want skyla?
yea gotta paralyze all 3
but overall v happy with this as pre-ex numbers
Any decent team for dmg?
Have you checked the pin? EX og Elesa + Volkner + Elio.
Idt that would have made up for the 1.5 mil difference
BIG NUMBER
I mean, tech or field EXR is already x1.5, so Ash already gets 50% more of his score
well it helps having a busted Ash unit in my back pocket
keep in mind that the 2/3 score is with more syncs since hau takes longer to get going cuz enemies use x speed all. Not to mention Ash even with exr probably wouldn't beat hau's 5.2 mil
still, my pb is still only 800k off ex og kris so o7 hats off to you for joining the 1mil club
Thing is Ash doesn't have exr and as predicted hau is better than Ash by a mile here
ash being broken is still ash being broken
also the enemy has the wrost tm for hau
And Ash has no ET to boost him
and hau has many other disadvantages like extra time per sync
dont ned exr if youre just cracked B]
as I said compression is king in dc
If my SS Hau is only 1/5 EXR , is that still better than Ash 3/5 EXR?
I haven’t used a role cake on SS Hau yet, want to make sure it’s worth it
Ash just doesn't have the compression to beat hau
No.
yes, Ash should be better
I mean, base striker and dealing 2/3 damage to a base tech with striker EXR is still impressive
SS Hau needs his sync multiplier in grid, which all lie at 3/5.
Initially, Ash only has at least 40% of Hau's overall sync
thing is 1 mil is coming from final giant b move so it's more so a case of damage not nuke and the tech starts off with 1-2 less syncs
expected more from Ash tbh
And Hau already does more than 1M with his sync later on
also ash mechanics/logic question: do you go rejuventate for sync into bmove?
disappointed that he didn't break 4 mil
X Speed All is a double-edge sword for both Hau and Ash
Yes but the striker does ⅔ after getting 2 more syncs due to a max power b move
440bp is so insane they really just said yeah have all the damage in the game
I mean does it really matter?
Ash is still a lot of ppl's go to unit when facing an unknown stage while Hau isn't.
worse for hau cuz he gets a sync less and he has the stronger sync
Yes but more was expected from Ash
even me, a hau supporter thought the difference would only be 300k
I wouldn't really saying about Ash doing 1M with his B Move when Hau can do it more than 2 times and increasingly too
his b move takes no time investment
i mean. ok. can we all agree both ash and hau are excellent here
it's not about being excellent
at the end of the day if you're lucky enough to have both to choose from
you're already in a very small group of people
and?
most people are going to have hau because ash has been effectively retconned
This is about the expected gap
not who has it and who not
I am a bit surprised Ash didn't hit 4 mil at least tho
Probably at 5/5
does he have mpr on seun?
And maybe if someone is cheeky enough to give him Pinch Push and actually works
sure, but if fewer people have ash (let alone a fully invested ash) its going to be a lot less likely for him to rival a unit a lot more people are able to run
Trainer Sync Redemption only
Also I totally forget Ash need to use 3 moves to unlock bmove. I always though he can fire off his bmove anytime in the last seconds lol.
But his Not Gonna Lose TM is extremely slow
pretty sure more people have ash
doubt.jpg
it doesnt deactivate
hau release wasn't really that popular because of electric already being cracked
oof, that's why it wasn't 4.2 mil like the calcs. He doesn't get seun on every sync huh
He still need to use 3 moves and that consume time, just like ppl criticize about SS Hau.
It's extremely slow anyways
Anyways, I might try Pinch Push strat later
would you not just use a better seun setter so you dont wind up with gradual healing?
The gradual healing doesn't matter
Since the only move he's gonna use is his B Move
like if you go all out into thunder x2 you have bmove unlocked
*double rebuff
who else would you run him with?
Going All Out will lower the B Move condition by 1 even if it fails
I've tried it
without blue his score is probably 2.2 mil?
You never use thunder in optimal Ash run pretty sure
Yes but seun setter is not worth here
you have to, unless you're going for trainer sync redemption and 3x tm
doesn't he have 3 tms total?
4
ig you can grid the mp refresh 2 instead
Even Not Gonna Lose is better than Thunder
As fast as using Potion at some at full HP
I've seen it
hm. so you'd want like this and just roll for the mpr?
where's rejuv
the dmg output potential of these two just seems like it would be worth the time
oh so you do want rejuv?
Rejuvenate and TSR1 are important on Ash
the dmg output is nothing lmao
what's it?a mere 40k?
If you get lucky on para procs/Aqua Tail misses, you can get over 3M+
im not very good at using the pomatools dmg calculator but
are you calcing in team builder section?
no
you should
So I’m deserperate about the Dragon Stage I have no clue about how to make 3.7M so far
176 base power on 527 spatk, +6spatk, -2 rebuff, +35% from kanto spirit w/ blue, +however much from ash's passion
pretty sure passion is the one applying the bp increase to 176
oh its already factored in?
gotcha, i thought they applied post-facto
Without going too much on details/calcs you can simply check the move BP
Remember to set 6 gauges
hell is calcing thunder iirc
earlier someone told me to replce rejuv for TSR1
to have 2 SEUNs
its how i cracked my first 1 mil
NGL is REALLY SLOW but as long as you use it for sync and buddy in the last minute it should be fine
So I did something funny
thunder is really inoptimal either way
its not for thunder
did you use tsr or rejuv for your ash 3.7 mil?@dry whale
If the sync takes the type weak ahh
you basically just want to sync and a last second buddy move que
Trainer sync redemption yes, rejuvenate no
think you could get 4 mil?
I am a bit surprised that Ash didn't get 4 mil
also you didn't click regular thunder at all right?
I did not get the mind games on the run so it should go higher but I don't know by how much
No thunder
ok so wrt setting the team builder up to use that dmg calc
does this mostly look right
@glossy token the 3.7 mil guy didn't use thunder
bruh, ash isn't that washed
yeah thats why i was so baffled we were having this discussion!!
bc it seemed like people were saying well of course ash is only 2mil to hau 4-5 he has no exr et all
With no rng you can get to 3M
Just sync all the way out
and that just seemed like
patently disprovable
ok
im caught up now, apologies yall
pretty sure hau still gets more with equal rng even if Ash had field or tech exr
Hau is now 5.5M. I rly hope him getting into 6M club too.
(assuming all syncs crit)
oh that's current ash score multiplied by 1.5 I think
so hau definitely would have beaten Ash
nice
If Ash does have tech EXR, you also have to account for the extra offensive stats
i could optimize by putting sp3 on blue but thats excessive
+20 sp atk for tech exr
5.5M is with 5/5 Hau right?
huh, that's lower than I thought
Pretty sure it is
ok this might be exceptionally stupid but
BTW, does the 3.7M clear with Ash have him at 5/5 or 3/5?
Tech exr Ash means 50% on batman score can top the current leadeboard
is there either an electric type or a kanto region spammer
3
Isn't it more because of extra stats?
isn't it 5.5 mil?
this is all conjecture anyways bc we all know ash is never getting exr 
3.7M * 1.5= 5.55M
master passives don't affect syncs
arguably bp surge has both kanto and electric but
no but they do affect buddy move
im also looking at theme skills
for +spatk
another reason I predicted hau over Ash, ash compresses nothing
batman got 1 mil on b move
Actually, it doesn't work that way
So the move boost isn't relevant
It's the 1st day. Don't be so impatient.
We don't know if Hau is alr hitting his cap or can be improved after few days.
I am gonna assume 5.5 mim had all syncs crit
Ash will get 4M+ with tech EXR, maybe 5M if lucky, but no way he's gonna beat Hau
he's not getting 5 mil without tech exr
I think he'd most likely get support tho
bad gears? no crits?
Support to someone who has 2 endures and 2 damage guards? Sure
Marnie and emmet moment
Marnie makes somewhat sense because of her B Move
All bulky strikers except lyss(because ofc he didn't get the optimal role) support
*base lys
healing also seems to mean support to Dena (scadaman)
Maybe i shouldnt have synced with Melony. I went Melony > NC Blue > Hau
actually is power plant even optimal
Yeah i had powerplant on.
So assuming Ash gets tech EXR, the best score would be like this:
3.7M (Total) - 1M (B Move) = 2.7M
2.7M (Total w/o B Move) * 1.5 (Tech EXR) = 4.05M
4.05M (Total with EXR) + 1M (B Move) = 5.05M
And that's not even accounting the extra EXR stats yet
The biggest disappointment of SS Hau's grid is he can't pick Team Altered Field Dodge 9 while picking all sync tiles + Power Plant.
we just need more energy 
Team eva buffs would 100% makes him WAY better in dc even if Ash get tech/support exr one day.
He's syncing only
?
Well, we just hope DeNA can get permission for him to rerun
Only for EoS
He said he's not using thunders/bmove #1255888121648644197 message
just sync
So tech exr would be a flat x1.5 to his score
they didnt even wanna give players a 1 in a million chance of getting him off daily
And that's pretty much what has been calced
Thunders are taking too much
Ah, so it's just directly 5.55M + bonus damage from tech EXR stats
Exactly (but account the extra stats for blue sync maybe)
He said no regular thunder, but he didnt say no bmove tho?
Guys, for support buffs. Can you still get 2x buff if you sync twice on the same support? Or it has to be two different support syncs
I'm gonna calc the difference between with and without tech EXR
Gonna use Alt Selene
Sprint, field and support ex effects only activate once, at the first time they sync
Ohh alright
Inb4 he finally reruns but get sprint ex 
True so I misread that
Hope we get the video of it
I'll try again later, see if I can get the mind games and the triple para and all the crits. Second tought , I think i got very lucky to get the run I did early on
So the stats for the tech EXR is about a 3% increase in damage for the sync
Between 3-4%
Don't mind me, just coping
Which means, tech EXR Ash would've gotten up to 5.772M score
If what Trope said was true
That the guy who scored 3.7M with Ash only synced with him and never touched his B Move
Actually I'm dumb
I realized I could use gear instead as a template for EXR
I probably misread the bmove part
But basing on what I got with only syncs and no miss/para
#1255888121648644197 message
One extra sync means getting around that
I was abt 10s away, if 3 miss is abt 5s each maybe 25s should be enough
Gonna give a try
One final calc for me
+pins
Bruhhhhh
You gotta go into setting for pins now
Why discord why 
This change feels like it happened overnight
Considering no Hau or Piers I think that's pretty good
Uh somehow my Hau was 4/5, but damn the Fairy zone Special ⬆️ tile is very important IG…
Any tips for fairy or dragon? I tried with Ryuki and was unable to score higher.
Wouldn't Palentines sharena/Whimsicott be a good unit this type of thing with stun spore and go viral?
can't wait for her to get strike (it fits her football theme but it sucks on her specifically)
I'd really want field on her
It would be so good
And for this reason, it will never happen
I got the video, sadly apparently the B move is a damage roll and not guaranteed, I gotten as low as 897 and as high as 997.
Normally I also track my highest syncs so I know the theoretically peak I can achieve but I did not, still I can always go back and try again.
For know I say 4 million is a maybe
I'd really want to use her in the Fire DC 3v1, but sadly I have Moltres, the better option 
I can do more tries, sure
You can calc whats the max roll for your sync in pomatools
if you give me the scenario (with gear), I can calculate the damage outputs and give you what'd be the max
4/5 Hau vs 3/5 Ash?
Triple paralysis, mind games triggered , so opponent is at -3 so def and Ash is at +3 so atk up and super effective up.
Video is on the way.
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
You need get special attack up too 100 whit same pasive
Then 4 is easy
That's cool 
tbh she would go insane w c leaf if strike exr
not that i have c leaf
she would
We in
I am never redoing this stage btw 💀
Heaviest rng stage fr
@civic island @thin wren @pallid girder @vernal condor
Here is the Ash vid
could you upload it on youtube? or a google drive or smth, streamable links are temporary
Sure I'll do it a bit later. Repost it again
Prob could do better but only the 2nd time I've reached over 1mil
I just did another run.. Got 200k more..I'm happy with that.
Arc Cynthia 5m is making me insane

Poor courtney😜
Just tried this and got a NEW personal best score. Thank you so much!
No problem;)
Now just wondering if I wanna put in the effort to work on these crap scores lol
the rewards are worth it
just need over 1 mil total right?
yes
ok ty then I'll try to work on them asap lol
Ok so 10 smun was super overkill
Amazing run. 💯
what do you mean blue is not a striker 
yeah he got 1.5m
where
What are some non Gladion team comps to work against AS Cynthia in SS DC? The DC doc shows incorrect teams for another DC.
yeah but i dont have her 6ex 
wdym incorrect teams
it's not the same stage but the strats work the same
I tried using one of BP Valerie comps and she dies..so not sure what to do.
Video Title: What is This Mode?? First Time Damage Challenge Ash VS Hugh! | Pokemon Masters EX
Trying out the Damage Challenge for the first time in Pokemon Masters EX with a triple Pikachu team featuring Ash, Sygna Suit Red and Chase in Pokemon Masters EX!
*Remember, Datamined info is not official or 100% accurate, it can change at any time!
...
huh, first time for everything i guess
didnt think someone as big on Poma as this guy would not know about this mode o3o
he took big breaks from the game
what team are you using
has anyone used piers yet?
poce just now discovered damage challenge?
probably not
what having a sync tile locked behind 5/5 does to a mf
Thank you, got mine! Abit lower gears but still do the job
I did piers
(skinny used basically every electric pair lmao)

2,7m@did piers
yeah, I figured out using SEUN -> Sync was better than SEUN BMove
all piers really has going for him is support ex tbh
394 sp atk w/ 4 sync tiles + 150% total multipliers
vs
553 sp atk w/ 4 sync tiles + 160% total multipliers
Piers would be ok if second sync bost was not on poison zone
oh and self elec terrain nvm that probably bumps him up a bit more
Set poison zone take forever
with Ash?
yea..
Yes
a x1.5 that increases 3 damage outputs is better than a x1.5 in a x4.5 -> x5 increase
still, that run can be "optimized for more damage" if anything...
but still, Ash had a x1.3 more damage on syncs lol
that gear really pushed hard
fairy is max, ground I would need 2-3 para on eq to get 2nd b move which I am not resetting for, dragon needs more might grab lucas
Can anyone guide me on what I'm doing wrong? I synced with both Redlax and Melony before only 1 AS Cynthia sync
you use red for paralysis?
What do you mean? Using Body Slam?
Your cynthia being non ex already hinders her a good bit
yes
you should be able to get at least 2 cynthia syncs I would think
oh yeah I gotta EX her..will do that now!
but red has very slow speed
so melony might not be able to spam at some point
run out of move gauge
I did use Body Slam yes
Fuuuuu
I got the forbidden miss but I guess I have to move stacks to the previous b move 
I was actually thinking about that, was gonna do some testing later. Good to know my hunch was right
did someone actually get that 6,6-7M score or you just thinking its possible ?
I got 6,6m:) but my damage not work so got 1m less. So if have better gears can be more even.
It happened 
You need focus on drop spe def -6🧐
Mandatory SST Red run
Tomorrow my last day to accomplish this stage (hell)
Btw what’s your score for the dragon one ?
3.64
Wally and penny 5/5?
Yes
got no elesa mpr but its over 500k thats my threshold
Oh wow ty.
i think even with mpr that might be non-optimal? i wonder if i can move those orbs to somewhere else
bc shes already at +3 crit
aha! it worked!
also wondering if perhaps being +6speed all around is enough that colress doesnt need infliction freebie? but i feel like he probably does
2 gauge move so he most likely does
gonna try with this instead of going for mpr; will keep colress the same
+6 speed is not enough for 2 bars no, even that with one zone accel passive and mga and ss cyrus delay on debuffs can be not enough
needs a whole lot
gotcha, ty
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

https://streamable.com/l6fwkb
ok yeah elesa tm is overall timeloss
only recorded the score screen, not the whole run
But basically 1-2 para procs + 2 TMs + good gears = 6.17M .. although I think this was even a low-ish roll maybe, was hoping to get 6,3-6,4M+
my gears are 37% sync dmg, although total Atk from gear is only 50
yea tested with larry and even with +6 spe and mga the whole time colress is still running out of gauge frequently
appreciate the testing!!
Streamable 
upload that on ytb smh smh
also bro in your submission you linked a discord message, not even the file
only people on the server would be able to see it
and yeah it'd be better on a drive anyway
oh rip i thought i linked the file, mb
my apologies
i'll re-record with the non-elesa tm version to resub
can even mix in as steven's gaugeless iron heads to help but it's still a struggle to reach just 5 syncs (though i leave my as steven at lv 100 so you can get more speed)
also quick q related to a potential gear thing: how long does potion animation take?
0 if it's on someone w/ full health
if its to get someone back to full for unscathed
ew
unscathed in unreliable af bc you keep losing hp
yea
Lmao gg
yeah, im trying to think if theres a yoptimal point for which to time the potion if the animation time might be worth it or just nah all around
yeah and syncs and aoes are kinda unavoidable
also this one being air cutter heat wave
yea 💀
like i dont think its optimal
but if the animation were potentially quick enough to sneak in between the heat wave and the air cutter
4% is 4%
woah congrats! cynthia running sp3 lucky skill?
WW3 actually. No free slots for SP3 or for her custom SB4 cookie, I need those slots for UB stuffs 😛
but WW3 vs SP3 only affects the first sand-less sync, its very minor difference
Sand Blaster 4 is best, assuming it works
ok so
the animation is too long to sneak in
however
just para the air cutter B]
then you get 2 syncs at 100%
bc after ac its facade aqua tail
ohh good tips! ty 🙏
now if only i had uh. actually hit the record button
skyla has fanfare 2 on sync + was already ex, so she can get skyla to +6 with 1 mpr. elesa gets the passive stat buffs from theme skills with triple unova w/ colress and gym leader/undella town from having skyla. colress gets up triple para asap + 3x screech for maximum sync value, then is our spammer
given that we're not using elesa's mpr anymore tho i can check if i have a better option
but this is like
ok but don't you have the pairs for the 1m clear? or you're just having fun
my elio is only 2/5 ex, not 5/5 ex
so unless i waste a candy on a genpool pair i cant get the sparkling aria def drops
I think you can still use that team, just you won't get +6 Speed
2 elesa TM bring you to +4 and Elio's got +1, so that's still fine
you should try using it and see what you get, but I think you'll get a better score than this 645k
what can I use for Arc suit Steven super sparring if I don't have AS Cynthia atm?
@icy pendant you got anything?
courtney should get 1m
how about a 5/5 variety Giovanni?
what grounds do you have? courtney like maelmc said of the genpool is solid, but if you have other non-genpool ground pairs
that should work too
his main issue is he needs sand tho
you can run this
w/ sleep strat
run sand shelter on your sleeper, and use earthquake just before your 1st sync
These what I have atm
use your tm on giovanni before your 1st and 3rd sync
oh god wrong repy
you could use like any of those
Also 5/5 lodge rika but no ex
special moves have reduced power anyway
nc blue melony v gio should get 1m somewhat easily
I was gonna choose Maxie and was about to give him tech exr but I'm like 2 tech coin short for a cake
there is an exr rika + cynthia strat using rika as first sync for support + set ground zone but
maxie wont do sht here ngl
sygna giovanni is probably the highest scorer tho
I got arc cynthia and that's about it bestie sorry
Dont you hate it when they have heat wave?
If only I had 3/5 SC Lyra for ground debuff and viability
I think she was in that scout with SC selene right?
bro stop
do you have nc blue
Too bad, I got 3 and 4 stars
Uhh yes
blue melony vgio
That'll reach 1M?
it should
So I sync with melony first or blue?
My Meloetta got burned 
sync with blue -> melony (or the opposite doesnt matter) -> all vgio
before your first sync with gio you use his b move and then his TM on himself
and give melony sand shelter
with this grid
@icy pendant this is what I'm suffering on
please tell me you pulled on that banner with a paid pity saved at least

yeah without these 3 tiles you lose too much other time to setup (elesa's tm takes a hot minute) and dont get nearly good enough returns
No copies 
i can record it if you want me to but
rip
that was part of why i wanted to record/submit
Wait what?
I'm at uhh 363/500
was if other people were in incomplete grid-suffering hell
Pulled in paid banner without pity?
pulled on the paid banner period??
I need to get money to finish the pity, low atm
Need like 12.6K
To pity
So yeah
If I can get some tasks in my remote job that pays decent, can probably pity
Depends though on the pay rate
Fair but I needed to save my f2p gems for lear
change in lucky skill +200k to ground
