Damage Challenge

[craggy pond]

and i thought my 5% gears were pretty decent lol

[misty forge]

5% is fine

Remember you gotta always align stats and %s

[craggy pond]

true true

[misty forge]

A 60 spa +9% is probably as good as a 80 spa +5%

[craggy pond]

is there like a guide for how much atk/spatk increase is equivalent to 1%

oh right

[misty forge]

Not at all

Because every unit is different

Some units have base 400 atk

Others 600

[craggy pond]

units with lower atk/spatk benefit more from direct increase ?

[misty forge]

So the value of extra 15-20 atk change

[craggy pond]

and vice versa?

[misty forge]

Ye

[craggy pond]

neat i see

[misty forge]

An extra 20 atk on Geeta isn't the same as extra 20 spa on Anni N

[crude sandal]

How does it affect transforming units?

[misty forge]

I think gear is flat added at the end?

Lemme check what pomatool says

No ok

They get the transformation buff

+100 spa on lussa becomes +120 spa on transformation

In general my thought process behind gear is that 60 or lower offences is shit unless it's something like

• low AF atk/spa on mostly spec/Phys archetypes with excellent skills
• extremely specific to a unit that doesn't use that stat much (example: my +10% shower power kalos 40 atk bracelet for ncerena)

65 is fine if the skills are REALLY REALLY good

70-75 are basically just as good as 80 in most cases, especially if they get 20-30 hp and/or Def

[vapid kernel]

Does anyone know how i can calculate accurate sync damage numbers

Im doing this for Morty and the numbers are way too high (178271-199201 but actual values are like 100000)

Do i need to plug in defense and HP from each enemy

[rain copper]

Yes

[vapid kernel]

Ok defense is always 83?

[thick stump]

is anni N my best bet for bede lol

having trouble hitting 1 mil with him

[cloud timber]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uLYScuKDzU

[misty forge]

If he's 3/5 it should be easy

[vapid kernel]

Yes

[vagrant ivy]

anni n hitting 1m by the skin of his teeth

[thick stump]

thats the same team i'm using too but i just barely miss last sync

probably gear issue since my pin doesnt have speed lol

[cloud timber]

hm

don't think i had speed on my gear

should be hitting 5 syncs with a wide enough margin that you can throw in a bunch of blue flares

so idk if you're trying to go for 6 which you can't

the gauge just does not exist for that

[thick stump]

lemme watch your vid

maybe my turn order is just bad

[vagrant ivy]

the vid only does 3 syncs

but with blue flare spam in between

[cloud timber]

5 total syncs, 3 with anni n

[vagrant ivy]

and it got a play rough para

yeah this is why sync quality is important

if you won’t be getting a fourth sync in with 10s on the clock why not use that 10s for a blue flare so your 3rd sync does more

at least that’s my mindset

[thick stump]

oh you start using blue flares after anni n syncs

i didnt do that lol

[cloud timber]

yeah setting debuffs as soon as healthy superhit seun is out of the way

[vapid kernel]

Ok i think im close to figuring it out

If i want to determine Morty sync after BP Barry EX sync and Event Victor sync, should i write 3 sync buffs or 4 sync buffs in the calculator?

Because before he syncs its 3 buffs but after it wud become 4...

And the number that i get from 4 is more accurate

[true locust]

Damage rolls skill gear bonus can make some diffrence

[toxic sleet]

Ill take these

[candid nexus]

setup?

[thick stump]

Thanks

[pearl dawn]

Oh my God NOBLE ROAR SPAM I FORGOT I COULD DO THAT.

[lapis yarrow]

Where can I improve?

[crude sandal]

Definitely fire because that score with Gloria is way too low

[misty forge]

Gloria 4/5 can definitely grab 1mil almost blindfolded

[crude sandal]

Replace Bianca

[misty forge]

Idk Bianca worked fine for me

Just need to know when to flinch

[lapis yarrow]

Any video clears of that team comp?

[delicate star]

who are the best units paired with SSDiantha in the challenge?

[crude sandal]

SC Steven and Oleana. Aaron can be subbed for Oleana if you don't have her

[crude sandal]

You can do Aaron + SSA Cynthia and Aaron will spam Defense Order

[icy pendant]

Get Erika out of that team

[delicate star]

o this wasn't my actual team lol

[delicate star]

thanks

[misty forge]

Just bounce para on the flinch, swap to pirouette, use 2 TM, sync to swap back to sing spam, use Bianca moves to flinch once or twice whenever he's about to use spread moves

[delicate star]

what score should I aim with this team?

[misty forge]

This is with 1/5 Gloria btw

With 4/5 her damage should be easily into 1.5mil

[hollow wadi]

How would I improve this score? Got a ping at like 4 am saying it was bad

[misty forge]

What's lance even doing there

[hollow wadi]

Instantly debuffs defense

My only other options are like

[crude sandal]

He's useless

[misty forge]

So 1 giga impact and dip

[hollow wadi]

Kiawe and 1/5 colress

[misty forge]

I'd bring sun instead

It's more than -6 Def I'm pretty sure

[hollow wadi]

Isn’t sun 1.5?

[crude sandal]

Yes

[hollow wadi]

Wait how much is -6 def then

Cuz I thought it was like the main games where it’s 4x

[misty forge]

Not at all

[crude sandal]

Well, there's mitigations here

[icy pendant]

It’s 2x against mitigation 0, but we have mitigation 8 right?

[crude sandal]

5

8 is only for status

[delicate star]

do I have to get lucky with Aaron's defend order move gauge refreshes?

[icy pendant]

yeah so -6 def is only about 20-25% more damage then

[crude sandal]

You have SS Diantha's Lithic Acceleration to somewhat help with your gauge

[icy pendant]

it will fail once he hits +6 in both defenses, so MGR cannot proc

[vapid kernel]

@vernal condor you think SS CYrus Chase and Red can surprass your NC Sserena dark score

i just calculated that in theory he can do 4M

[brisk shale]

X1.8 at no mitigation I think

[vernal condor]

you get 6 syncs with that ?

[brisk shale]

And additive with attack/sp.atk

[delicate star]

oh alright

[thin wren]

doesn't cyrus have seun already

[vapid kernel]

its like 10% chance to proc and i think it's consumed when you dark void

[thin wren]

??dark void doesn't consume seun I think

[vapid kernel]

4 syncs

[thin wren]

it's a status move

[vapid kernel]

can anyone confirm

[brisk shale]

*20%

[vapid kernel]

if dark void doesnt consume SEUP then i can bring Volo instead

[thin wren]

a rebuffer would be better than redlax there imo. Or someone else who buffs syncs

[vapid kernel]

although i cant grid Cyrus for max nuke + SE Up

[thin wren]

oh right volo

[thin wren]

lemme see

[vapid kernel]

ok actually possible

i drop Bad Break 1 and do SE node

[vernal condor]

you're never proccing super prep tho

it's only when the move is successful lol

[thin wren]

oh oof

nvm

[vapid kernel]

Oh yes

i keep Red and keep the 4M calc then

[true locust]

Dark void is status move no damage

So not consume nothing

[brazen escarp]

Bruh

What am I supposed to do

[vapid kernel]

What are you doing

LOl

[vapid kernel]

You should use a Ghost type striker

[candid nexus]

LOL

bro playing on impossible

[crude sandal]

Where's your Morty/Drifblim?

Also VoKzx finally revealed themselves now

[brazen escarp]

I don't have one

[brazen escarp]

How to get it

[crude sandal]

Through the summons

[brazen escarp]

The only ones I have are special

[crude sandal]

Although RIP you

[brazen escarp]

4*?

[crude sandal]

?

Morty is a 5 star

[brazen escarp]

Ok

Yea then no chance

Maybe I can do the johto villain event

[brazen escarp]

What should I use for the rock and ghost stages

[vapid kernel]

ok @vernal condor i recalced and i think SS Cyrus 3/5 EXR peak is 3.1M

[vapid kernel]

Ya honestly Phoebe is your best option

[crude sandal]

No hope, sorry

[vernal condor]

you're clearly a beginner, there isn't much you can do for now

[brazen escarp]

ig i will just get the 300 gems from each and dip

[brazen escarp]

lol

how do people do this gahdamn

[crude sandal]

Years of playing

[brazen escarp]

is there any decent f2p ghost unit?

[vapid kernel]

no

[brazen escarp]

:(

[vernal condor]

I don't really see it happening

[vapid kernel]

if you want those numbers, no

[vernal condor]

dark void isn't that fast of a spam

[brazen escarp]

i just wanna get to 250k

[vernal condor]

morty & drifblim, good enough to get 1m

[vapid kernel]

My calcs assume that you get -6 special defense in the first sync

[brazen escarp]

how is that f2p

[crude sandal]

Only Morty/Drifblim is the feasible one here

[vapid kernel]

Oh true then maybe deduct one sync to be 2.4 M

[devout sphinx]

there honestly should be an f2p tier list

[vernal condor]

depends on your definition of f2p

[brazen escarp]

u dont need to spend gems

[vernal condor]

sounds more reasonable

[brazen escarp]

or general pool 3 and 4* ig

[vernal condor]

he's a general 5*

[brazen escarp]

mhm

[crude sandal]

Our general pool ghost units are mostly 5 stars

[brazen escarp]

oh right, maybe i can try debuffing in the fire one, i could get much more dmg hmmmm

[brazen escarp]

is alister good?

i cant use him for this dmg challenge tho

[crude sandal]

Decent

[brazen escarp]

any decent f2p debuffing unit?

[copper otter]

@brazen escarp unironically, you can toxic stall and get 100k points

[brazen escarp]

btw how could is kukui and lycanroc

[brazen escarp]

wow

[copper otter]

That is a legit strat

[brazen escarp]

that might be my only option

i want the tickets

cuz why not

[crude sandal]

Lucian

[copper otter]

What top score rn?

[plush palm]

cosmic power spam baby!

[copper otter]

10 mil?

[brazen escarp]

i got 160k in fire

and basically 0 in everything else

[devout sphinx]

speaking of ghosts, how about flying. Any F2P options?

[copper otter]

Lodge Skyla

[hollow wadi]

Lodge Skyla and lodge Serena

[brazen escarp]

blue
source: trust me bro

[copper otter]

Blue actually can

[plush palm]

lodge skyla actually hits decently well on type

[hollow wadi]

For 3v3 and 3v1 respectively

[crude sandal]

9.7M

[devout sphinx]

Blue better than skyla?

[copper otter]

3 v 3, lodge skyla, for 3 v 1..... lmao

[brazen escarp]

is there any lodge ghost options?

[copper otter]

They're only supports

[hollow wadi]

Ehh…

[copper otter]

So no

[brazen escarp]

akr

[hollow wadi]

Both are good but Skyla is way easier to get dupes for

[crude sandal]

Our ghost lodge units are supports

[copper otter]

What's top 100's number rn?

[hollow wadi]

Plus she doesn’t need to sync for her dps

[copper otter]

I haven't unlocked leaderboards so idk

[brazen escarp]

ok

[brazen escarp]

with what mon?

[crude sandal]

5,607,598

[crude sandal]

Girafarig

[brazen escarp]

ok

[copper otter]

That's really low

[devout sphinx]

have them both for at 5/5. lodge skyla worth investing?

[hollow wadi]

Imo yeah

[brazen escarp]

is it a general pool 5*?

[copper otter]

I might actually get top 100 this time around omg

[crude sandal]

Yes

[copper otter]

[brazen escarp]

is there any f2p spdef and def debuffer?

btw does kukui work for leering in the rock stage?

also do the stat raise work like in the main games

like +2 attack = 100% more dmg?

[plush palm]

colress is far better

[brazen escarp]

i would like u to mention the mon please if u can, im new to the game, so i tend to remember them by their pokemon :p

[crude sandal]

Too bad he won't work for Barry

[plush palm]

spdef debuffer... your best option is probably lodge cheren aka purrloin

[brazen escarp]

does it work like that?

[thin wren]

it's 2 sts

[brazen escarp]

i do indeed have him

cool

[icy pendant]

You can use the pomatools damage calculator to see how damage changes, but the multiplier you have is incorrect

[brazen escarp]

ok

i was asking cuz in the mainline games +2 atk = 100% more dmg

[icy pendant]

however as a beginner your priority should be finish the battles for the first time rewards and dip while you work on building your account up

[brazen escarp]

like +2 atk = 2x attack, +4 atk = 3x atk

[brazen escarp]

ok

i just recently spent 36k on the rei banner

im kinda disappointed

[crude sandal]

I don't remember how stat raise work in this game

[brazen escarp]

but cant say i didnt expect that

[crude sandal]

Well, you should always have the mentality of being prepared to be shafted

[brazen escarp]

yes

i expected that

but :p

[crude sandal]

Well, let's not get off-topic right now

[brazen escarp]

ok

[fluid anvil]

VoK at #1
But didnt break 10M

[brazen escarp]

is kukui a good def debuffer?

[crude sandal]

Mid at best

Like Citrine said, Colress is far better

[hollow wadi]

For a f2p defense buffer he’s solid but yeah

[brazen escarp]

but colress is sp def

[hollow wadi]

Colress has screech for physical defense

[icy pendant]

nope Colress is a defense debuffer

[crude sandal]

He's defense with Screech

[brazen escarp]

ah

then sp def

[crude sandal]

Lucian is Sp. Def. with Growl

[brazen escarp]

whats a good f2p sp def

[brazen escarp]

ok

[vagrant ivy]

people run colress-redlax with special attackers anyway
source: ingame team repository for various DCs

[brazen escarp]

growl is for decreasign attack no?

[vagrant ivy]

thunder wave spam is still very valuable if you don't have invested bp barry

[icy pendant]

Lucian is fine, though lodge Cheren is f2p as well and twice as quick

[crude sandal]

Growl lowers attack, but he has a passive that also lowers Sp. Def.

[brazen escarp]

does it need 2/5 or 3/5?

[icy pendant]

base

[crude sandal]

1/5 alone

[brazen escarp]

alr

[icy pendant]

It may be worth taking some time to read pairs’ kits to get a better sense for their playstyle

[vagrant ivy]

@brazen escarp do you have lucy, bertha or perhaps chose SS leaf from victory road

[brazen escarp]

i havent chose from victory road yet

people are saying to pick ss blue tho

[vagrant ivy]

then don't choose SS leaf

go pick that instead

[brazen escarp]

ok

[icy pendant]

Blue is far and away the best pick, the other two will fall off harder as your account develops

[brazen escarp]

what does blue do btw?

[crude sandal]

Support

[brazen escarp]

i dont think i will use red cuz i like cinderace way too much

but then again i also like charizard but :p

[vagrant ivy]

@brazen escarp if you have koga you can use him to toxic stall out the DC as well

[icy pendant]

Leaf just has a niche here since she can apply bad poison and can get you higher damage counts than your account currently can get

[vagrant ivy]

should be about 100k

[brazen escarp]

leme see

[brazen escarp]

i have other units that can badly poison tho

like roxie i think

[vagrant ivy]

but lucy is better since bad poison and trap

also bp erika exists

[crude sandal]

Or you can just clear DC and dip

[brazen escarp]

i do have lucy

[crude sandal]

Without doing any damage

[vagrant ivy]

if you can't bad poison your second best option is burn/regular poison/trap/sandstorm/hail

status conditions and weather don't stack tho

[icy pendant]

This is honestly what I would recommend. Don’t worry about optimizing DC too hard right now, your account is not in a state where you can take on this content meaningfully

[brazen escarp]

i just want some of the ticekts

i want those sync pairs

cuz why not

:p

[vagrant ivy]

you will get them eventually

[brazen escarp]

i have lucy

[vagrant ivy]

also fun fact damage challenge restarts tomorrow at psychic 3v3

[brazen escarp]

i just checked

[crude sandal]

As of right now, it will be very slow to obtain those units even if you do put effort into the DCs

[brazen escarp]

so i gotta finish today?

[icy pendant]

It’s a permanent gamemode, there is no rush to get them at all

[vagrant ivy]

ice single target yes

[crude sandal]

It's better to develop your roster first before tackling this mode

[vagrant ivy]

otherwise it's gone until next februrary

[brazen escarp]

oh that

[vagrant ivy]

[brazen escarp]

i dont have good ice dps

[vapid kernel]

can anyone tell me where MOVE POWERUP is coming from

[vagrant ivy]

get ghetsis while you still can

[brazen escarp]

i tried with hala but barely got any

[icy pendant]

There are two damage challenges currently active: the single stage (ends today), and Super Sparring (ends next Wednesday)

[crude sandal]

Who's that?

[vagrant ivy]

spam glaciate

[brazen escarp]

alr

[brazen escarp]

ok

[vapid kernel]

Variety Lyra
but i see this for many calcs

[brazen escarp]

is it just me or do the legendary adventures take way more manuals

[vagrant ivy]

dont forget to buff special attack before spamming glaciate

they do take way more manuals

[brazen escarp]

ok

[crude sandal]

Sp. Def. debuffs

[brazen escarp]

so i wasnt just tripping

[vapid kernel]

oh wait

leme try something

[icy pendant]

Move powerup is the innate isn’t it?

[snow raptor]

@warped gulch did had specific gear for ur 1M Gordie / Lear SS / SC Steven ?

[vapid kernel]

Oh !

[crude sandal]

Hmmmmm, for tomorrow, is SS Steven like 3rd best among the DDs?

1st is Lear, 2nd is LuSSamine and 3rd is SSteven

[brazen escarp]

what type is tomorrow?

[crude sandal]

Triple Psychic

[brazen escarp]

ok

[crude sandal]

The rotation renews

[warped gulch]

100 Atk and 2% Sync dmg

[brazen escarp]

is giovanni decent for that

[crude sandal]

If you have his power ups, then yes, but I know you don't have them yet, so no

[brazen escarp]

alr

[crude sandal]

Best F2P for tomorrow would be Caitlin

[brazen escarp]

(u are a psychic trust)

[snow raptor]

noted, i guess i'll try for aa 800/900k with regular one then !

[brazen escarp]

who the hell is she :p

[crude sandal]

Unova E4

She also appeared in gen 4

[brazen escarp]

ok

[hollow wadi]

Who does Caitlin have again I forgot

[crude sandal]

Reuniclus

[brazen escarp]

lemme guess, general pool 5*?

[crude sandal]

https://tenor.com/view/tighten-megamind-yes-funny-pointing-gif-15740657

[brazen escarp]

what

[icy pendant]

yes she is genpool

I would not worry about any of these gamemodes beyond a first clear until you complete all of the permanently available content though

[crude sandal]

Also, will anyone try BP Will on psychic 3v1?

[icy pendant]

what are his multipliers again?

[crude sandal]

Innate is Sp. Def. drop

[brazen escarp]

ok

[crude sandal]

Grid multipliers are Fuzzy Strike 5 and Double Down 3

[icy pendant]

hmm maybe I can build him in time, I’ll see if I need any other type coverage first

[crude sandal]

He has Aggravation 9 in passives

For instant confusion on Confusion

[icy pendant]

seeing confusion as a multiplier does worry me lol

[crude sandal]

For those who have Sp. Def. as their multiplier and/or innate, I think SS Brendan might be the best partner for them

Dragon Breath for para and Luster Purge for Sp. Def. drop

In fact, I think for psychic 3v1, DC Blue + SS Brendan might be a good combo

[vagrant ivy]

giovanni:

[crude sandal]

Was replying to valt

[vagrant ivy]

oh right his EX reran god knows how long ago

yeah then its caitlin

but who EX's that...

[crude sandal]

@thin wren Tomorrow's the day huh?

[icy pendant]

me!

[crude sandal]

Anyone gonna try this?

[vagrant ivy]

well i don't really have a right to say that tbh

i have flint 20/20 waiting on poma day tmr

and base skyla at EX

[vapid kernel]

Tomorrow time for SS LUsamine upgraded score

[crude sandal]

Won't Lear just surpass her?

[vapid kernel]

i dont hv him so IDGAF

[sacred badger]

last time i hit 1.2m with nc rosa, anni may and ss lusamine

[crude sandal]

Same, I only have SS Steven as my main DD

[sacred badger]

this time i'm going to do ss lusamine, nc blue and nc rosa :>

[icy pendant]

I’m going on the SSteven train since I need to use my 70 energy one for something

[sacred badger]

full 5/5? D:

with what team? o_o

[vapid kernel]

same and i wonder if it wud score higher than what i did with SS Lana

i think it will be like 500K higher possibly

[icy pendant]

3/5 EXR Lear will probably get used but I don’t expect him to surpass my optimal Steven team

[sacred badger]

ss lana will probably hit harder tbh ;x

[icy pendant]

I’d like to do something with Rosa’s rebuff tbh

[vapid kernel]

Lana is doing nothing except bring Psychic Terrain

[crude sandal]

Isn't Rosa the best anyways?

Instead of Melony

[icy pendant]

likely yes

because you can relic song right before her sync and get back in psychic mode anyways

[crude sandal]

Yeah, use her B Move to trigger the psychic rebuff, go to Pirouette and sync there to go back to Aria

[icy pendant]

and she has 4 moves to burn turns on things not named Sing

[crude sandal]

This time, I think Rei can 1M the 3v1 DC

[sacred badger]

either that i go ham with the same team i used.

for fighting single

[crude sandal]

Fighting single, SSA Cynthia will be meta still

[sacred badger]

i think i can do nc hop, but with 3R now

[icy pendant]

Rei has 1m before though?

[crude sandal]

Numbing Blow for para and NC Rosa for fighting rebuff and Sing spam

[sacred badger]

with nc bianca 2R ;o~

[crude sandal]

And, I think SC Diantha will be good here too

[sacred badger]

Poison Single is going to be itchy sigh

rock multi.

i could 3/5 my selene alt but eh.

[crude sandal]

3/5 Alt. Selene will be miles better than NC Silver

[icy pendant]

oh true she doesn’t need that wacky circle setup for sync spam

[crude sandal]

SSA Cynthia has been used before in fighting 3v3 right?

[sacred badger]

seems... fine.

[crude sandal]

Also, besides SSA Cynthia maxing out Diantha innate and Brute Wits, NC Rosa can max out Inertia

[sacred badger]

oh interesting i used the same team too lol

[snow raptor]

I'll stick with that for now, god i hate Damage Challenge for real

[sacred badger]

i think you got a good score. were you aiming for top score ? D:

[snow raptor]

Not for now, i'm still in love for HSE for ressource comitment haha

Top500 is fine for me, i can def improove Leaf/Blue/Melony run

[icy pendant]

super sparring is definitely less resource investment at top level though

[snow raptor]

I wouldn't know so i trust you on that, but the overall gameplay of DC doesn't fit for my taste saddly

[icy pendant]

then that’s an issue with the gamemode, not with level of investment

[snow raptor]

Mix of both yeah for sure

[icy pendant]

SS is more or less “the same ~8 pair core, plus up to 3 investments” - HSE is a flat 15

[loud cedar]

too lazy for the others kek

[sacred badger]

i'm probably down at 400~ i'm at 3.9m iirc

first sync with gordie didnt sync ;x

[vagrant ivy]

hm

[icy pendant]

meanwhile here I am with only fire done lol

[thin wren]

I will prove my title.

[icy pendant]

not tryharding because I have nothing for rock

[crude sandal]

Get 6M

[thin wren]

I will try for 5.5 mil

[sacred badger]

gordie would've been nice if you can burn the target but alas.

hrm

[icy pendant]

mine isn’t even EX or in an EX-able position

[crude sandal]

[sacred badger]

nhot enough move level?

[icy pendant]

nope he’s 5/5 he’s just competing against 36 20/20s for the spirits, and needs the powerups first

[covert geyser]

Anyone have a video of the summer gardenia colress renegade Cynthia team?

[vapid kernel]

Do you mean for Sparring

[icy pendant]

yeah for regular DC I have used all of them but also Aaron is in there for SS

[vagrant ivy]

in general

i meant

[sullen zephyr]

What does this say about me?

[vagrant ivy]

that you're prepared for this mode

more so than me probably

[crude sandal]

I've literally used all the enablers mentioned there

[sacred badger]

cool.

had to make a Correction area ;x

i have no idea where i'm getting 201 training tickets from

[vagrant ivy]

did you forget a ranked DC

[sacred badger]

i.... dont think so.

[vagrant ivy]

🤔

[sacred badger]

1st super sparring was marnie1poison, wally3dragon, hop1fighting whichw as in july.
august gave us arc super sparring, arc cynthia3fairy, arclance1dragon and arcsteven3ground
October is super sparring right now

[crude sandal]

I'm gonna try SC Emmet on bug 3v1

[vernal condor]

please reconsider

[sacred badger]

i have each of them recorded so...

[vernal condor]

he's worse than guzma

[sacred badger]

i'm not sure where its coming from ;x

[crude sandal]

I'll try it first

[vernal condor]

I already did lol he's so much worse

[sacred badger]

=IF(F48 <= 1000000, FLOOR(F48 / 10000), 200 + FLOOR((F48 - 1000000) / 50000)) like so hrm

[crude sandal]

With who?

[vernal condor]

I don't remember

[crude sandal]

Because I'm going for good ol' NC Blue/Melony with him

[vernal condor]

yeah nah

[crude sandal]

NC Blue enables his Tough Sync and if Emmet is gridded Berserker 1 on Swords Dance, then he only needs to use it 2 times

[vernal condor]

how do you even grid that

[crude sandal]

Like this
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/10901/58900?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13010602&g=AAECAwQFDA0RFBcaJygpKywu

[vernal condor]

I need to find what I did back then

[crude sandal]

Emmet also has MGA on his TM, which also gives him SEUN, which will be perfect for Melony

If spamming was discovered back then, Emmet would've also gotten 1M score

[vapid kernel]

L

[crude sandal]

Now that we've discovered proper strategies, some units we deem bad are usable like SC Emmet

@split coral I'll use SC Emmet when bug 3v3 comes

[vernal condor]

Im trying to send a picture but internet is slow

[crude sandal]

Not bad for his 1st sync

With NC Blue and Melony

Actually, this is better
https://ng-pomatools.web.app/pairs/10901/58900?s=3&l=150&r=6&p=0&a=13010602&g=AAECAwQFBgkMDREUFxonKSwuLw

[vernal condor]

it was back when we didnt think about sing spam yet

[split coral]

.......u pinged me.....
cuz of this?...

[crude sandal]

Yes

I'll use SC submas

[crude sandal]

Or one of them

[split coral]

w h y....

[crude sandal]

Why not? I'm going to use SC submas in your honor at least

[fossil tinsel]

💀

[sour lark]

Wonder what the best way is to set up Ghetsis' sync snipe

[vagrant ivy]

a person used nc hop

still only got like 550k

i run chase/melony and i got like 100k less than that

he's just bad even after EX theres no excuse

[sour lark]

Well, that's still way better than the 118695 shown here

Looks like they were spamming moves rather than syncs

[fossil tinsel]

xD idk really

[sour lark]

Though their Ghetsis isn't EX either, so probably no Power Boost nodes

...Then again, I thought Pecking Order was available by default

[vagrant ivy]

it aint

maybe you can run cold snap + glaciate spam???

i'm out of ideas

[sour lark]

Hm? I'm looking right at his Pecking Order node and it's not from powerboost

[split coral]

OK I accept now

[sour lark]

Without Neo Hop, I think Oleana might be the next-fastest way to set Ghetsis up, while also serving as the sync countdown spammer if she's 3/5. Hopefully the -6 speed counters the timeloss from Poison animations

[crude sandal]

Have to wait next week since bug 3v3 is on that time

[sour lark]

Don't know whether they do have Oleana though

And I can't exactly test it myself since I don't have her

[brisk shale]

This is the max I saw #1255888121648644197 message

[vagrant ivy]

oh mb

[brisk shale]

885k, 740k from ghetsis
Which is kinda unoptimal bc with 5/5 ss Hilbert you can get 1m with just himself
50% from double rebuff, -6 in 3 tecnhoblasts and charging infliction 2 to help noble roar spam

[vagrant ivy]

but ramp up from his TM is from powerboost

which would help with setup

HE1 for para is always there tho

so you dont actually need to run chase/nc blue

but alas gauge

[sour lark]

It would, though one other powerboost node is probably actually even more important

Sharp Entry.
BP Barry can set his SpAtk up but needs to attack (and risk ruining the run with Trap) to give crit

[vagrant ivy]

yeah that looks bad

[fossil tinsel]

I don't think I have her, just started game a bit ago

[sour lark]

Hm, alright then

[fossil tinsel]

[sour lark]

Hau&TapuKoko can reduce Speed quickly, if you pulled on the recent Alola banner

Fixed

Getting high scores in the Damage Challenge means doing stuff we normally wouldn't in a real battle. Like spamming a move that does nothing, so that it passes turns fast so we can use the sync move several times

Hm, Gordie&Coalossal is in the general pool. At 3/5, he can reduce enemy speed by 2 stacks at a time. Doesn't contribute a whole lot else here, though

Why is Speed so hard to debuff when so many characters have Cakewalk

[fossil tinsel]

yeah I saw some sing or thunderwave spam

[sour lark]

That technique was originally invented in the Legendary Gauntlet, and I even used it in two clears of my own in the most recent one

[acoustic chasm]

What's the reason for SS Steven instead of Aaron?

[sour lark]

What Ghetsis wants is a way to quickly ruin the enemy's Atk for his Pecking Order grid node (fortunately he can grid for Noble Roar Double Drop to do this himself), a way to quickly ruin the enemy's Speed for his sync's innate multiplier (uhhhh, Glaciate is not fast), and someone to spam a useless move for sync countdown

[fossil tinsel]

I have melony

[sour lark]

She could do the sing spam trick, then

BP Barry can do similar with the right grid node (to rebate the gauge cost of Thunder Wave)

The problem is the speed thing. We don't wanna sit through eight Glaciate animations...

[fossil tinsel]

yeah lol

[brisk shale]

Also, spamming noble roar works like defense order/cosmic power but using 2 gauge like venom drench

[sour lark]

Oh, it can spam if we somehow didn't have to worry about gauge?

[brisk shale]

Ye

Or if you're also using a slower spammer with excess gauge

Like BP Barry and colress
or 5/5 SS hilbert

[sour lark]

Intriguing indeed

How slow is Metal Sound at it?

They do have SS Hilbert but only at 2/5 unfortunately

[brisk shale]

Slow as the regular metal sound but with only the debuffing animation not the move animation I think

And you need 3/5 for charging infliction 2

And then 5/5 for the second rebuff and 4/5 for -2 speed per technoblast

[sour lark]

Wouldn't wanna spend candies just for this, though

[brisk shale]

Ye, I got him 5/5 by accident

[sour lark]

I threw candies at Neo Red (basically I'll only use them on Masters and Arca) and used him for my own clear. That doesn't exactly help our newbie here tho

[fossil tinsel]

yeah quite unlucky (I think?) I did 400 scout points and got 4/5 hau, 4/5 gloria and 2/5 ss hilbert (used guaranteed for hilbert)

[sour lark]

Wait.

Which Hau?

Zwerchhau, says a German swordsman

[fossil tinsel]

decidueye hau

[sour lark]

Oh, damn. Hm...

Wait, what?

[fossil tinsel]

the left one

[sour lark]

Oh, Rei

[misty forge]

That's not unlucky at all

[hollow wadi]

That’s mad lucky

I got 2/5 hilbert, 3/5 Gloria, and 1/5 Rei by pity and I thought that was good

[sour lark]

My first two guesses at how to make this work, then, would be
Plan A: See how well Ghetsis can work with only Atk debuffs and Pecking Order
Plan B: pivot to 3star Candice for Inertia and her innate Hail multiplier (Melony can get Snow Shelter at 1/5 so she can still spam the countdown safely)

[misty forge]

That's solid

[bright niche]

Guys I have almost forgot to complete ice weak DC..
Can u guys suggest me the best ice tea for single ice DC

[sour lark]

I used 3/5 Neo Red

[misty forge]

4.5% odds usually net around 4-5 units on average

[bright niche]

How much score did u earn

[sour lark]

Lemme go check

This is without using skill gear, just type gear

[fossil tinsel]

oh lol my bad 💀

[bright niche]

Damn noice

Lemme deww it

[fossil tinsel]

oh I see, I thought since 5* chances are higher

[sour lark]

All good.
This challenge isn't going to be easy for beginners, so I guess don't sweat it if you can't score that high yet

[fossil tinsel]

yeah

[fluid anvil]

Nice (thats with CS2 as well, not SP3)

[hollow wadi]

Oh the 5 star chances include general pool units. It’s 1.5% for each unit on a triple banner like that, 4.5% total

[misty forge]

@fossil tinsel

[hollow wadi]

NC leaf my beloved

Wish I pulled her 💀

[fossil tinsel]

oh so I got quite lucky

though tbh I did a reroll after a pity in my first account 💀

is there any good team for beginner in the 3 type DC, I have morty and gloria for fire and ghost I think

[sour lark]

Sounds good.
Rock 3v1, though... Uh, I dunno. Brock??? But then we have the Speed debuff problem all over again

[hollow wadi]

Gloria can probably get you 1 million for all the base rewards

If you don’t really care about your total score at least

Do you have her EX/EX role?

[sour lark]

I've heard good things about Gloria indeed

[fossil tinsel]

yes I have her 4/5

though idk how I should use her, like with melony spam sing and spam sync move with gloria?

[hollow wadi]

Probably, tbh

I don’t know enough about this game to help you with specifics tho 😭

But if you can, I’d get her to 6 stars and ex her

Not sure how new you are tho so that might be tough…

[fallen trail]

very dumb interaction i learned

if gloria is bouncing

and ss morty uses sunny day to give the team the omnibuffs with his passive

gloria doesnt get the buffs

[crude sandal]

That makes sense

[fallen trail]

anyways i got this

no exr on gloria, with it she can get 2 mil i think

dunno if this is more than w champion blue or not though

if i got 2 more dodges or paras i think i would get 1 more sync

[fossil tinsel]

what does ho-oh do? I don't have him

[hollow wadi]

He sets sun, heals a lot, and gives stat buffs

[vapid kernel]

Yes thats very good

She can 2M withiut exr

Exactly 2M

And u cant another sync

[vapid kernel]

Ye in DC he is just sun setter , Support EX and Adrenaline 1, but he can top up attack and special attack too. Theres not a lot of non fire teams that want sun though

[fallen trail]

yea extended sun with field exr

also has move gauge accel which helps w sing spam

[crude sandal]

Surprisingly I'm still at rank 88 in the ranked DC

[fallen trail]

i need to do the other stages looool whoops

i dont have champion leaf so i wont be a top rank, sadge

[fossil tinsel]

Oh i see, sadge I don’t have him 😭

[icy pendant]

we should very coincidentally land around the same rank as each other again for fun

[fallen trail]

[royal jolt]

a lot of players are improving their best scores
I find myself slipping from the top 20
I think I was like 30 or somewhere around there. It's very nice to see the competition

[fossil tinsel]

To bypass the sing animation, we have to give the enemy a status?

[crude sandal]

Yes

[fossil tinsel]

I was thinking this team, though only status is burn

[crude sandal]

Gloria has paralyze with Bounce

[bright niche]

Let that old daddy some rest

[hollow wadi]

Any chance you have Colress?

[icy pendant]

Gloria is right there

Bounce 30% paralysis

[hollow wadi]

Colress would be quicker tho wouldn’t it?

Plus you keep screech

[icy pendant]

not necessarily

Gloria being tactic 1 makes a lot of sense because then you also dodge a move

[hollow wadi]

Oh true actually

Resetting is lame but eh you’ll live

[icy pendant]

frees up the screech slot to run sun instead

since it’s a larger multiplier

[fossil tinsel]

yeah I don't have Colress

[fossil tinsel]

oh I see 👍 true

I think for sun setter I only have ponyta I think

[sour lark]

Ponyta's probably good enough

Well, you can evolve it to Rapidash I guess

[fossil tinsel]

yeah

setting sun is better than 3 screech?

[icy pendant]

Blaine is fine, you only need 90 seconds of sun anyways

-6 defense is only a 20-25% damage increase into mitigation 5

[crude sandal]

Defensive debuffs are heavily mitigated in this mode

[sour lark]

Blaine is fine, you only need 90 seconds of sun anyways
You sure? Melony's not EX so we'd skip her sync

[icy pendant]

your last syncs are the hard hitting ones

[sour lark]

Fair enough

[fossil tinsel]

[icy pendant]

technically egg Ninetales is fine

actually wait tech Ninetales might be better than Blaine

support Fuecoco is probably the best sun eggmon because of speed buffs lol

[fallen trail]

ok i did it… my rock score is kinda disappointing me though, wonder if i’m doing something wrong

i didnt use b leer cuz its slow but maybe i should have for def debuffs?

[crude sandal]

Did Diantha have Sp. Def. buff?

[fallen trail]

ahhhhhh she didnt for her first sync

i used her tm after mega

wait

no she still wouldnt have sp def buff huh

[crude sandal]

Have you tried Aaron over SS Steven?

[fallen trail]

that’s probably it

steven is faster for gauge but i forgot i need to buff her sp def

i’ll try aaron

[true locust]

Use rock zone b move and tmp:) have all

[fallen trail]

aaron i only got like 10k higher… might be a crit issue cuz that doesnt seem right i got the same number of syncs in

unless ss steven theme skills are that strong

[true locust]

Strange:) should be way more score

[fallen trail]

huh that is a lot

+36 atk

i wonder if i can get diantha to buff her own sp def while still getting 4 syncs in

[true locust]

I did 4 sync whit 4 super up next and 3 b leer

But hard tell how fast steven spam it? Or aaron since never use them in dc🙂‍↔️

[fallen trail]

oh tm mpr simulator

dunno if i wanna do that lol

their spam is just as fast as sing spam, the only issue is having to be at +6 def/spdef for it to be effective

so it takes a while to get there

this is with 3 syncs…?

its scoring more than my 4 syncs run

im so confused lol

biggest difference is having def drops on this run ig

[true locust]

Did you use b lear?

Then more damage

If steven was 2/5 have mp would be more

[fallen trail]

i used b leer once

on 4 syncs i dont use it at all

def drops mattered i guess

[zenith jolt]

Skill gear are a massive joke

I cant

1000 feather spend on ONE gear, i didn’t Even have once the skill I wanted

Painful

[fallen trail]

yea i cant get 4 syncs w double steven while also having diantha buff her own sp def

[true locust]

Need get heat wave miss😘

Funny thing i got in one off my runs it😂 first was 3 miss haha

[fallen trail]

there we go

wish i could get 4 syncs w ss steven and diantha buffing her own sp def but it would require a b diamond storm use that is just too slow

so aaron will do

[desert dawn]

Are there any good 3/5 SS-Hilda clears for fire if you don’t have NC Leaf or Gloria or NC Bianca? Or is she not good for this damage challenge I can’t seem to find any

I only got 432K with SS-Hilda, SS-May, and Melony not sure if there are high clears with her

[fluid anvil]

ss hilda probably cannot get 1M in 3v1 without the nc leaf boost

[desert dawn]

Tragic

Do you think 400-500K is about the best you could get or are there any other teams you’d recommend to try to score higher with

[true locust]

If you have nc blue and hilda and melony

Should be the best use

[desert dawn]

I can’t just sync spam with her since I need her to get a few V-Create boosts for rising tide damage so I’ve been using SS-May to debuff while she V-Creates and then get a Melony support sync then a May Sprint sync then a SS-Hilda sync at the end but not sure if I could do better just adding SC Steven or NC Blue

Gotcha

[true locust]

Grid for it

First sync nc blue and melony then hilda

[desert dawn]

Would adding scorching sync not be better or is burning not worth it for the added time

That’s what I was using earlier

[true locust]

Its sure one sync less

Not worth it for singel target get it

[desert dawn]

Got it thanks

I was getting three syncs previously but that was only since I had SS-May sprint sync I’ll switch to this and go without the burn thanks for the advice!

[true locust]

No prob

Nc blue need para and flinch from first move then have more time

[desert dawn]

How many stat boosts would you try to get on Hilda before just sing spamming and syncing

[true locust]

Need use nc blue speed and tm his

Its all for it

Or speed and hilda tmp maybe hear its faster then nc blue

[desert dawn]

Is Melony TM worth it for accuracy boosts off grid and/or Hilda V-Create for defense boosts? Or would both of those make it rough to get the syncs in you think?

[true locust]

You need 18 total sts

So nc blue have 14 and hilda 6

So have more then need

[lapis yarrow]

Why is this so low?

[vapid kernel]

You can watch one of the videos in the Damage challenge excel to compare your run

I think maybe you are not paralysing the enemy first

[royal jolt]

ayo?
hidden tech?

[brisk shale]

Visual bug

[royal jolt]

ik

still funny as hell

[brisk shale]

Oh it's the damage from the enemy targeted

[desert dawn]

Oh does rising tide max at 18 buffs

[vapid kernel]

can someone tell me if the enemies of DC have Stout Heart 5 or something

[royal jolt]

they do

they seem to have the reduction of 5 for everything I think

[fallen trail]

good question

you need to paralyze with bounce

have gloria tank

bounce turn 1 to dodge play rough

if it doesnt paralyze reset

use her max move after morty’s sync

its not like other units where you max move at the end, her main sync multiplier relies on using the max move at the start

you have her 4/5 so you can grab soften up and haymaker

and max super preparation

morty can max her atk with sunny day omnibuff and team gimme five

[lapis yarrow]

Do I sync with just Morty before Gloria or with Melony too?

[vapid kernel]

Melony 1st, Morty 2nd if hes ex role,

[fallen trail]

i didnt sync w melony

just morty

he is exr

[lapis yarrow]

mine isn't :/

[unborn otter]

@royal jolt is 3/5 exr nc blue or 1/5 exr chase better for nc red and melony?

[vapid kernel]

based on my calculations

SS Steven can get 4M tomorrow with NC Rosa and NC Blue

if he gets 5 syncs

ok wait i meant 3.5-3.8M

SS Lana 3/5 will reach 2M

[hollow wadi]

I can’t do this next dc 😭

My best psychic pair is no ex Giovanni

I’d build up bp will cuz he looks fun but I’m also out of for the month

Do we know what’s after this one then?

[vapid kernel]

Lear is 5.3 M

mmm

[vapid kernel]

He sucks

[vapid kernel]

Fighting Single

[hollow wadi]

Oh bet

Stadium Gloria time

[fallen trail]

if morty isnt exr that complicates things yes

[cloud timber]

so no 3/5 olympia or lucian

bp will is usable but inferior to those still

in case you overlooked them

[hollow wadi]

Didn’t mean to ping my b

[cloud timber]

there is a shot oak could be a viable option with 2 good mults and evasion access

but nobody's tested him since he didn't have ex last time

[hollow wadi]

Fair, I can’t get his ex in time tho

I have like three to my name

Used them all on lodge and bp pairs

[cloud timber]

you never need to invest if it's exclusively for this mode bc you're going to get the rewards eventually regardless

gio without ex will be super underwhelming and 4* oak can still outperform

[hollow wadi]

Eh it’s fun, I think it’s worth it

Tho yeah I’ll mess with oak tomorrow

Thanks for the help!

[royal jolt]

I think EXR Chase is better for NC Red tbh

Circle goes brr

Plus, evasion

[unborn otter]

Hmm, had 0 gauge at 17 seconds to do another sync so i dod g move then 10x bonus b ice beam

With ice gear

What did 1/5 exr chase do?

[rotund sierra]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[cloud timber]

prob rosa and some para setter that manages the gauge, possible that redlax could work

idk how the gauge management goes with rosa since she has much higher speed than melony

and never used her

[fallen trail]

ditch melony for rosa and add a paralyzer probably

[rotund sierra]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[thin wren]

Soon we will learn if we get gems again

regular dc alone gives about 900 gems per month

[cloud timber]

reruns have always gave gems so they'd have to make a specific exception

[pearl dawn]

This is a kinda different case.

More akin to that of the region rotation.

[sacred badger]

come, i'm ready to melt nemona3psychic :D~

[icy pendant]

did I only get 1m with 5/5 ss silver? yes but I honestly don't feel like optimizing because I almost forgot to run this dc

[fallen trail]

i'm more concerned about getting more tickets

than gems

[pearl dawn]

Logically, it should just reset your points.

Keeping your high score in the log until you get higher then that.

[icy pendant]

however logical implementations are not always the chosen implementations

[pearl dawn]

Sure.

But there's no use questioning it when we'll see in four hours.

[fluid wave]

bruh, is 500k achievable? i got 306k with this and i'm not even asking for much.

i don't even want the million awards just the cakes and coins.

[cloud timber]

bertha is def not helping

can be better to just not use sand at all

esp since you lack sync rush on that team

nemona is also contributing nothing at non-ex

[fluid wave]

i use sand to boost her moves

and since barry's the only non-paralyzeable opponent, i might as well just go normal way with moves and then sync

[icy pendant]

you're gonna have to walk me through that hau team, I genuinely do not see the lines

[fluid wave]

yeah i hate that one is because i dont wanna ex this morty that i never use

and i dont have an exed support that buffs attacks

[icy pendant]

just poison stall it then

[fluid wave]

that was just done out of my ass

how much does poison stall give usually

[icy pendant]

all dot is done as if the enemy has 100k hp

so you should be good to get to 100k

if not way more with additives from Lucy et al

[fluid wave]

much better should i not bother with wrap?

and just leave at the badly poisoned

[cloud timber]

nah if you're going with passive damage you do everything

lucy and bertha are good for that

[fluid wave]

got it and just waittttt

[icy pendant]

Lucy / Bertha / BP Erika probably stacks lots of extra additives on there

[fluid wave]

badly poisoned them 3 and just waiting... patiently lol

[icy pendant]

yeah you inflict and then do absolutely nothing once that happens

[fluid wave]

wait what is bertha for?

[cloud timber]

maybe you could put in a real damage dealer in there on top

[icy pendant]

bertha has trap and sand chip

[cloud timber]

sandstorm, trap, stealth rock

[icy pendant]

oh rocks, yep

[fluid wave]

oh damn right...

this ones gonna be bad then...

i did janine oak and lucy

and it looks already iffy

lol... 55k... well at least even better than that morty balloon...

[pastel bone]

can anyone help me get to 1M for blue?

[fossil igloo]

Sweet! Updated my score.

[sturdy pebble]

How well does SS Hilda do against 3v1 Fire?

[old valve]

Probably not that well considering the lack of a tech role but I coooould be wrong

[fluid wave]

Bruh how can I 200k with 4/5 exed Olivia

On Barry

[old valve]

I guess I'm gonna have to do the same weird aah Anni N/SS Morty/SS Hilbert comp I did for single target fire before

[dusk sundial]

I can get like 900k with her 3/5 exr

But that’s on dc, idk if this mode is different

And it also requires gordie who you want on st rock

[sturdy pebble]

Ah

Then I'm not even attempting to get a higher score

[cloud timber]

if you have nc blue i managed over 1m with him + ss morty

with both anni n and 5/5 ss hilbert

[old valve]

My SS Hilbert is still 1/5 unfortunately but I appreciate the suggestion

Got a 700k off of the comp as is

Now to figure out what to do for physical 3v3 ghost

[fluid wave]

Well no sprinter coins and cakes for me I guess.

[old valve]

And now I figure out what the heck to do with this ghost roster lol

(Image edited for full viewer clarification)

[fair mist]

ex morty is quite literally your only choice

[old valve]

Figured

[long silo]

Morty/BP Barry/Event Victor gets you 1m

[old valve]

Cowabunga it is

Wh

The alt colour unlock screen glitched out.

Where is drifblim

[old valve]

I assume I have to fish an MPR on morty to get +6 attack also?

Also, I've never really looked closely at him, and I'm not seeing anything right off the bat here, so I kinda have to ask- what makes BP Barry different from, like, Elio or w/e?

...Aside from the obvious differences in guaranteed consistency and trainer move of course

[fluid wave]

Could exing and caking red add 100k more or no? That 1/5 really ain't helping it though is it

[old valve]

Hmmm

What other fire tech units do you have if I can ask?

[fluid wave]

Serena is 4/5

If Serena can outperform I'm MAYBe willing to ex her.

But I don't think she can honestly

[old valve]

Red has mega tax so I'm pretty sure Serena could probably outperform him without the EX

Lemme check

[toxic sleet]

how about silver

[fallen trail]

last word went off 😔

[fluid wave]

I unfortunately don't have silver exed

The event for silver hoo oh has not come yet

[fluid wave]

Really? That's a surprise

[old valve]

Look at the base powers of their respective sync moves, and consider the fact that Serena can spec into her grid's sync nodes

[cloud timber]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUt4yCUks8g uses nc blue but basically the only resource for base serena

[old valve]

I'm like. 95% sure she'd outdamage a 1/5 red at 4/5 with no EXs involved.

[cloud timber]

does 500k on that team

[fluid wave]

Sadly no NC blue rip

Don't have the op support too buff Serena

[old valve]

You could still get stuff done with her regardless

[cloud timber]

^

[old valve]

Barry can ramp crit, can't he?

[fluid wave]

No

[old valve]

What

[fluid wave]

Barry gives sp atk

Only

[old valve]

Check his passives

He gives Crit when he slaps a para'd opponent

[cloud timber]

yea team critical shock is maybe the worst way to buff crit

[old valve]

It's a bit slow but it IS crit

[fluid wave]

Ahhh wtg

[cloud timber]

and serena needs them not para'd for her mult

[fluid wave]

I didn't realize

So he can buff cr

That's great. I just need 300k not even asking 500k. Wish me luck.

[old valve]

Idk if you can hit 300k without EX but

If you're EXing her, good luck, I believe in you

[cloud timber]

buffing her might be enough of a hassle to make her not outperform ss red there but you can see

[crude sandal]

Top 100 in this ranked DC is 5,793,891

[old valve]

TRUE also

Forgot to reply to that

[old valve]

Could I sub Event Victor with Renegade Cynthia or is there something important about him here

[fair mist]

she needs sleep so lmfao

[old valve]

I don't believe she needs sleep to at least outperform a 1/5 Red but it'd certainly help a lot if possible

Anyways ig I'm going with this grid for Morty?

[cloud timber]

no rude awakening and no innate so she gets literally nothing for her sync if no sleep

at which point just use ss red

[copper otter]

time to see if DeNa will give us 100 gems from DC in 2 hours

[crude sandal]

Also VoKzx finally reached the 10M+ range, I just wished Adam was there surpassing them

[old valve]

I'm gonna see about replacing Event Victor with Ren Cynthia in case it does anything for me, wish me luck

Bada bing bada boom

Oh I have an incredibly stupid idea for 3v1 rock

...actually wait I don't think Paulo would be worth it now that I think about it

90% sure this team will need SS Diantha on it though what with this being the rock roster lol

(She's EXR'd)

NC Blue Melony and her ig?

Do I Rock Zone and use her Buddy Move 3 times before her first sync or just use her Buddy Move after the sync, though...?

I hate thinking

I'll try the latter first

Oh wait I want her to actually have her attack raised right lol

Before it is

Oh wait the battle rules slow sing spam strats down a ton huh

Wasn't thinking about that

[old valve]

?

[still hearth]

oops i didmt even realize i typed smth im just stalking this channel

[old valve]

Oh lol

Okay yeah I have no idea how to sync countdown on Barry's stage here without wasting a ton of time doing something like setting up Ghetsis's Noble Roar lol

...Or wasting a ton of time in another way like using Screech Colress in general

[feral hamlet]

500k with NC Red 2/5 expected?

[thin wren]

can you ex gordie@old valve

[old valve]

I spent the last of my EXing mats on Morty and BP Barry so uh

no.

...I could candy Diantha though

If that does anything lol

Maybe not worth the investment tho

Okay yeah I still have no idea how I'm supposed to handle sync countdown here with this rule

Without absolutely messing something else about the strat up

[cloud timber]

aaron (ideally oleana but she's much less accessible and i don't have her)

best no-status sync rushers

[old valve]

Oh.

I wasn't expecting that lol

[cloud timber]

ss steven and janine also exist, lot of people are running gordie/sc steven/ss steven

[old valve]

Aaron, SS Diantha, and who else, the- oh shit SS Steven works never mind I'm using him

[cloud timber]

he's slower to set up than aaron but maybe the theme skills make up for it and it doesn't cost a whole sync

1 bar cosmic power is what you're looking to spam

[old valve]

I figured, yea

Two stat raisers faster that one stat raisers kinda like the stat lowering moves work I presume?
