#Damage Challenge

varies a lot, not too worth tracking
yea, but u might have an idea right?
a threshold after which u would reset the run?
7 syncs if setup is fairly fast, 6 if it's a little slower, 5 if there's a lot
and my ss lysandre team used 4 so it's not like that's exactly a bad amount either
for pairs that barely need any setup, you can get your 2 first syncs before 1:50 left
usually it's more around 1:30 that you get your 2nd sync
not based on timer no, maybe for misinputs or slow presses
Honestly I would only reset hard if I'm chasing after MPRs early.
also ofc reset for the rng you need, should be something specific you're looking for if you know what you're doing
and if you don't you can figure it out from a bit of trial and error or watching a video
hm alright
again back to the original question, what are some small things that beginners like me would overlookk
game speed #1
you're sacrificing something for sure if you play at max speed only
nothing else comes to mind immediately
💀
calling me out eh
yep
if you're ever able to queue your inputs you'll get zero delay between actions as opposed to doing one action twice without interruption
like two sings in a row without them attacking
which every game will usually have a lot of but there are avoidable cases
also there's just the thing where you might overlook your grids/gear/lucky skills
not really a small thing but a very very large thing
people who play at max speed have gotten high before but those are usually whales who have everything maxed and even then there's very few

i have exr steven but idk what to make of him
he really wants his arc alt but his gauge also sucks balls
yeah the highest scores aren't always actually super optimized, just only a few people with access to the best units
so it just needs to be the best one of those
doesn't change that it's an easily improveable thing
damn, it's that bad for non Lear/ASS havers?
people don’t have the time or patience to play at min speed
like if I didn’t want to try hard I’d play at max speed
YESSS 
Gladion better use rosa and lax
And for bianca you can use h jasmine
Ooh Jasmine is a good call
I like how no status spam param was applied on the one 3v3 DC where status spam isn't optimal
Yuh
It would have been so bad if it was applied to ST Psychic or Dark.
iirc giga steel matched steel spam in score
Would be hilarious if they implemeneted no status in Dark to sell SSA Gio
dena knows about status spam but not which stage to apply it to
I am shocked they didn't
im fine w/it on dark
giga steel managing to be the best even in dc
We do DC for that yellow coin 
I mean if they want to ban status spam just change the mechanic 
for my roster itd be more optimal
truly the modern rats
Some attempts on triple fighting
they are fine with it
Why is like, nobody using mc solgaleo for steel dc here
they just limit it a bit
With Colress team I dodged EQ twice so not reproducing anytime soon
SS Lear is godly
Because everyone has Lear apparently
Gio surprises me
wdym
?
mfw you get three heat wave full misses but dc cheren doesn’t crit
1m would be possible with just one heat wave miss
Literally my experience with Jacq
Dodge all the Crunch and air cutter just to miss a sync crit
I overcapped him with +4 E to afford the team evasiveness tile
same thing with Lear in single psychic but at least he doesn’t miss crits
no status on dark would be devastating, i rely exclusively on ss cyrus for dark dc
How the heck did i almost place into the top 100 worldwide? I wasn't even trying
Are these types units not very common?
:)
Gonna fiddle around psychic later but for now I'll settle with this
can take a bit for people to get in their runs, still only been a few hours
I think because it’s still only 3 hours, the pro players haven’t even started yet
NA players haven’t started their grinds yet
Ranked DC only came out 3 hours ago.
I see that makes sense
Well tomorrow i'm goona try to nake some changes and use gears this tine around
I'll see if i can breach the top 100 and take a screenshot
no it's just the first day
ok much better
should be able to fit in 1 more sync at the end
ok a bit better
had gauge issues but thats a oleanna issue in general

w/ the custom LS?
This is so annoying
Speed is a major issue on steel. I haaaaaate not having Infliction Freebie on Oleana
She has no Infliction Freebie, she has Twofer
And besides, steel 3v3 is not meant to be spammed if you have SS Lear and AS Steven
Also, I'll take it
I got pretty luck with NC Rosa getting evasion
using her on bianca?
Right, that
I'm trying to have a spammer on Shauna, but no luck
Use Aaron
I'll try more ideas once I'm up again. All I've got going up tonight is a F2P 1.5M run
I did
Way too slow. And that's with Catalyst. I'm thinking Revenge 4 (I forgot the name) on Arc Steven, but idk
No NC Rosa? Hmmm
Right right
last sync didnt crit
?
you either queue or you don't queue, what's the ?
wait u cant spam in the steel dc
you can
i meant this one
i don't know how to elaborate
oh, i thought no interference or status conditions meant no sing spam
Yes, Sing
bc aaron defend order exists, along with oleana venom drench and other stuff
is the aaron spam not pinned anymore
we still have other ways to spam
what avoidable cases
ah
so no spamming for me :(
I feel like the non status spam message should stay pinned
janine can do it too but she's guaranteed to run out of gauge pretty much
can janine replace oleana?
the param is in so many super sparring battles
yes at 5/5 but that's not optimal
then how do u spam
optimally you're not using it and using move gauge boost with pep rally 2 to sustain gauge
with venom drench
dumb idea: eggmon venom drncher
should I ping sages and ask him to pin the non status spam message
maybe
aaron is gen pool iirc?
Yes
yes
eggmon is worse janine
is it?
i keep forgetting she doesnt grt regen at base
how's eggmon making up for +6 self speed and eva with pep rally 1 and quick tempo
@last stream (sorry if this disturbs you) I remember there used to be a message about how to spam without status that was pinned. Could you please pin it back personally since it seems to be in every super sparring nowadays?
how much slower is defend order than sing
same speed once you're at max defenses but longer setup
what are good units to use with mc solgaleo
i assume no solgalillie
your roster is a lot more limited than most people so hard to suggest anything
got nc blue? if you have literally no better option his passive is still useful
if you do have to use janine you could actually end up using drake or rosa to sustain gauge if either is ex to have gauge support + support ex
and simulate oleana but in two slots
but with added evasion
yea
nc blue can also help no?
the speed buffs are quite good
right?
So does NC Blue need 3/5 for DC stuff or is that just for like, HE2?
Or the def drops on first sync
nc blue isn't enough to sustain janine, he isn't even always enough to sustain melony spam
need mga or revenge boost or some sort of mgb or something but even just mga isn't always enough since the gauge can fail even with chase who gets gauge bonus under circle along with max team speed and mga
I'm mostly just trying to gauge generally
I caved and pulled him last month and only just got around to EXing him
only things on nc blue grid that matter are naturally he2 and the defense drop tile on sync, impervious and team sync think can help in more niche cases
Ok
Was gonna give NC Blue/Melony a spin for the sparring shit
What LS does he want?
Revenge Boost 4?
solid bread and butter for any damage dealer that isn't demanding on some specific multiplier that none of them can provide
I have that one spare and nobody else wanrs it
Who nukes harder
SSteven
Or VElio (VElio with terrain)
even +6 speed on all characters isnt enough? so what is?
revenge boost is exclusively wanted for janine basically, reactive passives are bad
it depends on damage dealer's speed and if there's any possible actions to break up the straight spam
you can always get away with just nc blue but the gauge can easily cap you at like 6 syncs when it's otherwise possible to grab 7 or something
sonia, larry, and chase can fit in mga while still having para and utility
Is it possible to improve one of this stage ?
quite far from perfect on all of them even if the teams are the best you have access to but hard to give any exact pointers
without being able to look at anything and also me falling asleep lol
1st one can be divided into 2 of your teams and becomes better
just remember to check the dc clear sheet in the pins and pick out the most relevant videos you can find and copy as much as you can
Also does anyone know the answer for this 
gut says ss steven but v elio maybe just wasn't tested thoroughly enough and elio does have better stuff, just possibly held back by the time it takes to set terrain every sync
i don't even know if people used ss steven in single anyway lol
while also sharing it here
My only single nukers (3/5 or above) are Lucian and VElio
I do have Jacq but he's 1/5
So won't bother
Lucian sounds like a hassle to setup for his nuke + fully buff him too
Waiting for at least a 14M+ clear
How much of a diff does ASS make going from 1/5 to 5/5??
Need miss ?
Bc HS1 and 1 more Pots
This run i got missed early so can queue Lillie move at the end
I remember giga steel getting 5 mil
Bc you can flinch
was that extremely rng
Here you cant at all
ohhh
Also pretty sure i'm doing the wrong rotation too
What are the grids?
:/
PoMaTools is a Pokémon Masters EX tool that helps users to plan their sync grids while simulating the possible damage outputs.
Come on game I just want to reach 2m with non caked Jacq 
I don't have Adrenaline on Anni'24 Lillie
Not sure if is a good score or if I could get better with other teammates

rip
Wondering how Giovanni will work compared to corless, since Riley has bad sync multipliers besides the innate
I'm definitely gonna get NC Bianca next time
i think gio is still worse
at least on tjis comp
exr riley and bianca
my grid
can probably drop MPR i think
Whoa, that steel type tho
but i cant be assed to redo it
the power of giga steel
Could have done better but wont bother this time lol
how much support does ss roxie need for both types of poison DCs?
Teeter Dance gaming soon
Is Snyc Move actually better than Spamming Regular Effective Attacking Moves?
in most cases yes, but there are some units where spamming attacks is more optimal
This steel type battle for example, dps is better
and theres some sitations where dps is your only option
sucks to be that guy running rose in ground 3v1
Yes it is but with bad sync multipliers those sync damage next could help
i assume water theme doesnt affect nc serena dark sync
that's the correct assumption
oh well
nah i mean the random +40 atk / hp shit from skill orbs
How do you even get good gear? 
do the so called feather trick where you disconnect your device and roll for the feathers you want
either get lucky or feather trick

@thin wren This sufficient?
thx a lot
need to add primarina to the guide
has alt gio been used outside of dark-weak? can he even spam without IF9
he can, with gauge
like oleana
but so far no he's seen no use outside of dark
he's technically better than barry, that's something
Gio only good in dark
Oleana is way better in term sync spam
Since gio you will get way less sync then whit oleana
Wat team you use?
should make a tiermaker with the spammers
Gio is slowest off them all
If use free move or not
Number 1 is h lillie then melony. And spamer 1 no status itc is oleana. Gio its good in dark stage where you can use his dark zone
Blue with Rosa. However, I haven't gotten the optimal rotation for Lillie, although admittedly I am getting lower result with Lillie than Rosa up to 3rd Rei sync, even accounting SEUN + Zone on Lillie team vs just Zone on Rosa
So we'll see what gives me the highest. I'll also try Bianca + Rosa but I'd need to find a video of that run first from those who used them on the first 3v3 Fighting
With the same build you gave me?
Yeap
I was thinking Rosa sync and then Rei all the way, unless I have time to actually use Bianca first?
Wait that's Fighting DC and I misunderstood it as an early screenshot of ranked DC in your stage clear thread! 
Okay I'll try both
Oh ye I haven't started on Ranked 
Mb lol
Ranked is more important but I have a pride here on this specific DC 
Ikr! 
Rank 1 last time is 4.3m so at the very least I want to get higher than that lol
ranked gives the same rewards as regular dc past 1 mil anyways
so after getting 1 mil on both it's better to put effort in the one you have the highest chance of getting a high score in
trying to make DC cheren reach 1m is too painful
even if they miss enough you run out of gauge
since it’s NC blue not chase

think I’ll settle for 870k
I also want Top 500 on Ranked 
Pride 📈
Logic 📉
does crit count towards rising tide
Yes
Ill take that
Dark stage is not even optimized yet, might have a shot at top 100 yeeeh
Teams?
an acceptable arrangement for the time being
top 90 rn, will probably fall out but top 500 could be possible
there u go sir
Is that an emulator I see 
I have ss lusamine 3/5 and normal elio 1/5 which should I use cuz it’s solo

mirror phone not emulator i swear ur honor
screen share phone to pc ? does it make sens like that ?
Sorry not sure of the name in english
Yeah, that makes more sense
it’s just a screenshare app the same way airserver works for iOS
What's the best score with NC Bianca as the DD?
colress can already handle spam without infliction freebie so for bianca it's better to fit in a better seun user which also keeps the gauge safe, fighting zone could be more useful in theory but ssa cynthia's zone doesn’t last and if you had c hop you'd use him as dd
@warped gulch this weekend, i'mma need some tutoring on doing the steel rotation, I'm barely making it to 3.6 mil, but still can't even reach using Lear's B move after sync due to steven heal from dazzzling gleam
noice
With 15% sync dmg from gears. If I get better one I can go higher 
What I did was 1st and last sync are at SEUN. 3rd and last sync, as well as one B-Move, are under Fighting Zone
But requires +Atk fishing on Rosa B-Move
I have yet to try Bianca + Rosa team tho so I'll check on that
hey whats the strat on poppy
my best so far is 1.4m w/ a sc selene team
But mine has 5/5 Arc Steven and Adrenaline 1 for both him and Lillie
feels like a mystery dungeon one
I love PMD series so i have ton of those 
Just remembered. This is possible with HoLillie. Just haven't gotten back to doing it lol
Go try it then
Hmm wat gears you use?
Not great
for super sparring i was thinking redlax/ss cyrus/chase for dark weak and jacq/nc rosa and blue for psychic but i was wondering would bianca be better on the jacq team? or no bc he needs blue’s crit buffs (otherwise has to grid stacking strike)
bianca cant paralyze nvm ignore
it's shauna that can't
bianca's gimmick is no attack move
not like it changes anything on dark specifically 
I feel like the answer to triple steel is a DPS run, no?
I'm experiencing a total skill issue rn
My highest is like 1.8M
the best team is steven lear lillie
I assumed so
I lack SS Lear, sadly
Same
I'm using stove/lillie/aaron
But I think pal marnie might be better than lillie, gonna test
she should be yeah
I have adrenaline 1 on both lillir and steven
3/5 steven, but debating if i should invest in sync burst on SS Lear to use TM again
300k less than last time but still better than all my other stages by a considerable margin i love this team
Clearly I have much to learn as my best with the same team just cracks 2m
that and the steel clear for SS
sure do, I even have an extra move level on Rei
there's fighting zone there, so 10/5
only 133 points between 2nd and 1st wow
for steel-weak super sparring who is a good third for rose and arc steven
since we cant use a status spammer
lowkey thinking of holiday lillie just for sprint/support and her speed buffs, i know she wont be able to sing spam lol
unfortunately 1/5 oleanna cant maintain gauge
even w/ bianca
had 13 sec left but no gauge left
unfortunately
if i had her 2/5 maybe i wouldve tried to get another sync in
Quick and easy, just a repeat of what I did before. I did fix Red not having the correct Lucky skill. The rules only stole 100k damage from the run.
Skill gear used 42%, 80atk
Pretty much same run as the non Super Sparring version. The rules here reduce score by about 100k.
Once I get field cake for UB Gio, I can boost my score
I just pitied him a few hours ago
nice to know I can't use him because I don't have his EXR :)
Well, ranked DC lasts long enough for the monthly rally reset and you can get his EXR from there
same
I plan to!

What’s the trick with damage reduction on Bianca? Can I crit through it? Sync rush?
just sync rush
regular moves don't deal much damage so might as well use the good ol' reliable
doesn't deny crits but crits won't negate the effect
Shy of 1 mil, yet so much better than the last time Fighting 3v3 was around and I EX’d Wally (didn’t have Bea yet)
Is it going to last?
No
I’m going to pretend this is the last day?
Yes
Finally able to do my first super sparring stage after a day without power
Hat was horrible
That's enough locking in for tonight
Fortunately you didn’t miss much, today’s the first day of Super Sparring
does feel like ages to go even a single hour without power but in the grand scheme it's still nothing
True and thankful I did all my daily reset missions before the power went out
Since the dark one is a sync rush and my ss marnie and ss cyrus are only 1/5, should I bring 5/5 Sidney and do a physical sprint instead?
If you have SSgio yes
bianca buffs eva and is a gauge battery
also good for some early flinches and def drops
basically just use her to buff to +6 and then start spamming
Invested +2 energy into Bea for this
yooo f2p
bea is worse than exr riley btw
ok but who has exr riley 
Me
literally nobody 
that’s not too far away from 3/5 Bianca
0/20 EXR-less Riley here 
Not the first time I heard that 💔
oop

How is he 0/20
His rerun didn’t come with PUs
wtf
tell me you recorded
Today I learned he had a rerun
I did!
How? Didn’t pokemist get 10 mil?
But also I'll see if I can get upgraded gears lol
if you wanna wait for the end of the dc so people don't copy your strat i will understand 

Who did you hse
Rei, Bianca, Rosa
Ohh
Anyways I can do Sparring and get back to this 
Looking through my Score Log to see what teams I want to get higher scores with now that I have H Lillie
Green, teams I have already updated with H Lillie on the team or don’t need updating because Elio is needed for his Attack/Sp. Attack buffs
Orange, have to wait for those stages to rerun to get higher high scores with H Lillie
Red, I lack the units needed to reach 1 million damage
Yellow, I MIGHT be able to get 1 million damage when it reruns, only time will tell (a.k.a wasn’t sure to colour them orange or red)
I smell a 10/5 rei here

Day one bestie 
Anyone use dexio for this yet?
I don’t have SSGio, would it be better to use the 1/5s?
dexio havers what a concept
nc marnie is reliant on b move for damage
dunno for sure whether 1/5 ss cyrus or accessible options are better
and we dunno your para + gauge options
maybe you could do like sidney sonia and ss cyrus
Do not disrespect jacq havers too
Shoot
So close
Jacq is good
Rachel???
Pain.
omw to give lillie flameproof
Wasn’t sure what else to use for the third slot
-TM that provides crit and speed buffs (because MC Solgaleo only has Sharp Entrance)
-Support/Sprint combination
Doesn’t he have crit on tm via grid?
MC Solgaleo has Critical Eye on the expansion yeah
but yeah, that requires the grid expansion for them so you might not have access
Interesting
-ah…
Lillie and ASteven alone close to 1M
It feels bad that it was steel 3v3 that was the “no status condition” stage
I wanted to know if Red/MC Solgaleo/H Lillie combo would be able to get 1 million damage on steel weak 3v3
Giovanni definitely improves Steven's score
not optimal here ofc because Giovanni is better on the dark stage, but I wanted to test
No spam if you have the meta team.
otherwise aaron or oleana
^^
is BPClemont okay
No
you can't spam screech
Steel phoning it in be like.
Colress is able to spam thunderwave because of infliction freebie and status moves end quicker than debuffs
spamming thunderwave felt really slow
Ye i know
Immunity slows down the trick, so yes it will be slower
hmm
Cerena
i have no idea how she his hitting so low
like even w/ elio she should be hitting at least 1m+
only need 1 b move
I didn't hit 1 mil with gloria idk how I would hit 1 mil with anyone else
ok looks about right
not sure what youre doing wrong
dont need barry
yeet him for elio
you're setting up dark rebuff not water rebuff right?
im doing dark rebuff ye
try 2-3x water > 1x dark > b move
ok thats a improvement
iron head spam. this took… more effort than i’d like to admit
when iron head rolls the 30% flinch it wastes a lot of time on the status shield animation
since they cant actually flinch
serena tm being +2 atk is annoying asf
Yeah hes nice for none-status condition fights xD
I like this , but it was aftrr bunch of resets
Finally got Bianca to flinch every move
Yes it can spam without IF9 if your team has lot of gauge support (Serena Redlax team can manage the spam)
https://youtu.be/y4yfOn8FBP4?si=H-QByhrCBlWCkuQh
it's good to see that some others are also going all Lear. All hail our glorious king
0:00 - Roster
0:10 - Vs. Gladion: EX-R Lear / EX-R NC Rosa / EX-R Chase
4:43 - Vs. Shauna: EX-R SS Lear / EX-R Anni 2024 Lillie / EX-R Arc Steven
7:43 - Vs. Bianca: EX Lodge Lear / EX-R Holiday Lillie / EX-R Red
Quite a number of people noticed that all three of Lear's units can cover all three of this Super Sparring's stages as their respectiv...
Idk wht to use with Aaron which max his defenses early
sillie
me
5/5 +8E EXR
spam iron heads
wait what
solgaleo lillie
sync with poppy twice after s Lillie
Ig I will use lillie with Aaron
gauge sounds horrible
you arent bonking?
use the b move on Lillie last since that eats time
I hammer only once near the end
since iron head can stack pmun
my ASS is 1/5
no more abbreviated arc steven as ASS please
also the timing is really tight, needed adren 1 on grid to get it
Tbf his banner really was ASS
these are definitely Numbers
Your steel score is a little low compared to your other ones
any advice on what damage dealer to use for each ranked dc 
what team for bianca?
Olympia ig
Olympia Bianca BP Barry on the psychic stage
dark idk I think ur cooked
i figured as much tbh
my dark roster sucks
steel maybe a h Lillie ny poppy DPS core
you have so many steel zone units but no real dps other than 1/5 
but I think you can still manage something decent
i know, i got all of them by chance too
poppy came home on a yolo
should i use chase or holillie alongside them?
I wouldn’t use chase I would just spam sunsteel strike and ny poppy b move
since the rules say no spam
chase doesnt really help a physical team
oh i completely missed that 
i actually used h lillie
yeah i just thought for the tm but i also have redlax
for sync countdown
she can help just by nature of buffing team speed and having sprint+support sync
and also her ally speed ^ moves ^ 2 passive
also true, still need to cake her though 
basically an extra cs2
tbh i think i'm just cooked for the most part since i'm missing dps units
and ex'ing raihan wouldn't even help a lot since he's strike 
i'll prob just take the L for this one
tbh i would just ex olympia and load up on psychic points
to make up fir the other 2
do you have nc serena
unfortunately not
you only need 1m total for all rewards
who should i use with olympia? i have chase, holillie, nc blue
i guess also anni may for psychic terrain
1/5 chase?
yeah then hlillie is probably a decent option
run her w/ nc blue
tank w/ olympia
bc olympia has eva
she should be able to hit 1m pretty comfortably
oh i should mention nc blue is also 3/5
Pretty good for somebody without Arc Steven, Dexio or a better Dark nuker
oh also coin rewards end at 500k past that it’s just orbs
can everyone else do me a favor and not improve their score for the next week ok thanks 👍
i can probably improve my steel team, and my jacq isnt caked
other than that p happy with these
i could cake jacq for a better score but idk if i wanna fight the rng again praying for 2/3 random stat buffs be attack and evasion and also all 4 of his syncs critting
(and it prob wouldnt be top 100 by the end anyways)
Is it a common practice for people in DC to use their Status Spammer on the side of their dominant hand? Maybe it’s a little different for me cuz I play on a larger tablet but I find it much easier to reach the Spammer’s move when they’re close to my dominant hand
i have never thought about this before but looking at my score log apparently yes i do
i didnt for this though... spammer on the left for psychic and in the middle for dark, no spammer on steel
I do but that could also be explained by tactics, I'm right-handed and my right slot is always tactic #2 so it's less likely to get randomly statused
If I'm running Chase Lillie then my Lillie is on the left side though so I can do either
I don’t really care what side my spammer is on if it works it works
what trips me up more is the x1 speed clicking
the score log shows them in left center right order correct? seems weird that it does that and then CS is center-first
oh yeah, as of today i have every dc pair 2/5 or higher. i have 1000 tickets saved in case the next pair is N (or otherwise a good pair) (ignore nemona paulo mix blue and v hop)
thanks super sparring
seems to show them in the actual order L-C-R
so interestingly, I right-favor Lillie but left-favor Melony
classic inconsistent dena
my few remaining Melony clears all have her in the leftmost slot, but I only have 1 clear with Lillie in the left slot and the rest of my Lillie clears have her on the right
replay data is also in the same format L-C-R
i tend to put my spammer on the left
right handed
unless my nuke is also my spammer which is when i put it in the middle
guys, i have chase 4/5. do i commit for mind games 9.
?
You rarely use it anyway
not worth
I'm going to be honest by the time I got there I had long since given up
Maybe more with chase
akari feels like not a good pick
esp if your gio is exr
what other dark types do you have
^
ngl, sidney?
so far, best teams are
NC Rosa/Chase/Dexio or Jacq
Lilliegaleo/Arc Steven/SS Lear
UB Gio/Redlax/NC Serena
which oddly enough, I have not seen any Dexio clears when he'd do amazing here
no one has him lol
how many 5/5 Dexio havers do you know?
I have him, just extremely uninvested
same
0/5 dexio haver
Masked Royal can do 600~700k with pure f2p, and 1M with premium supports.
I rmb seeing Lodge Cheren & DC Cheren hit 1M here, but prob require exactly Chase and SS Cyrus.
What was the masked royal f2p supports?
Lodge Lear can make 1 mil, but it's very skill gear reliant.
*also really reliant on SEUP from redlax
it's doable with average skill gears if you use ssag
giga steel manages to be the best even in dc
truly the modern rats
I'd imagine Hilbert (Samurott)
Even without that team, the rule solidifies their placement.
you can't really go out of your way to try and sing fail the stage.
that team was the best even when status spam was an option
Typical Sonia + Melony (the best f2p team for most f2p dc clear, basically budget version of NC Blue + Melony).
the rules just helped to stop the other close options
I don't have sonia somehow but would melony and Dana work
who would be the one to status to allow melony to spam
don't think surge has enough gauge for melony but you can always put in elio and not worry about it
Sing spam is better with a para user and I don't see anyone do para?
yeah that should be a free improvement
Wha
you need to paralyze first to not go through sing animation
or other status
otherwise you're just taking less syncs
Well Gio can also solo spam and get you syup which you seems really need, but HLillie becomes the one not really need here imo.
Either fight zone user or a seun applier that doesn't take 10 sec to activate.
Hmm unfortunately my only other SUEN user is Dana
Maybe cuz Melony’s sing is in slot 3 and Lillie’s is on slot 2
well, i improved my score
....using akari again 
Is Lillie Solgaleo better than Garbodor in the Shauna stage?
they do different things
if you have access to everything you do want to be using arc steven/a2 lillie/ss lear
Yeah, I got access to all of that
I was just confused because you usually use Venom drench/Twofer on special condition immunity
Tnx
yeah that team is already solid and has gotten 5-6m, no need to sacrifice anything for oleana
Chase on a non-special team 
What's the second best team for non Lear havers?
Dc blue is good for single psychic dc
I meant SS lear
Og Gloria but that team had a status spammer
Yes I mean for current ranked
Poppy would have been good, but she can't status spam here
Wondering if solgalillie DPS would be a good option
I used SC selene + Aron + arc steven
But had some gauge issues
Poppy doesn't need status spam tho. The highest score she did was by bonking so I think she's good.
even if you're going for bonk only you still need to activate it every time with another move so status delay still hurts a ton
Which one is better to use for damage dealing on shauna stage ny poppy or og poppy ?
og poppy gets nerfed hard by the parameter even just to activate b move
you have to gamble on the play rough miss
if it doesn’t miss it’s the same speed as thunder wave
bc of the parameter
so still useable but quite awful compared to what she normally can do
So ny poppy is better ?
I don't have SS lear so i'm not sure who i gonna use for dps on shauna stage
i used gloria but she needs 4/5 for haymaker
Yeah my gloria is at 1/5 and i don't think i have enough candy for 4/5
Oh well i guess i will just use ny poppy again and hope for the best
feeling likely you can do better with mc solgaleo unless you lack him powerboosted
How about 2 Poppy together?
You can DPS through it.
Well, she kinda needs 5/5 because of Super Prep too
I only got 2.1M with her at 5/5
stdk's was 6/5 so this is that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujvgQ4HkeB0
That is an unacceptably low score for Dark 🤣
thank you for bringing the knowledge of fire to us, prometheus
pretty sure 3/5 dc cheren is better than akari
Do y’all think N Reshiram can now do really huge damage ? Like maybe not as close as Leon but be relatable
nowhere near Leon
He can probably even beat superawakened SS Hilda, but he needs NC Leaf for his set up
Hello there. @fallen trail
My current score. Need to get Field EXR on UB Gio
What score is number 1 right now? Haven't completed Bianca yet so I don't know
10 mil
Very surprising
With Dexio, it should be more
Dark would be 3M+
Dark loses out on dps due to move reduction so that doesn't apply as much
What surprises me most is that PokéM1st is using Jacq instead of Dexio
I genuinely am not seeing any dexio clears which is wild
Not many have dexio
Since he is nothing special
He and sina berry power moves suks
Top 1 is 14,7m
Not 10 lol
How do you go fast with lillie for steel?
You're not meant to spam statuses for the steel battle. It's full on DPS.
You have to use potion on allies at full HP, have adrenaline/head start 1 lucky skill (not available) and have her Sprint EXR
How does one fully set up Dexio's multipliers?
Do you use berry once as spam and use B Move twice with Mind Games 9 for -6 Sp. Def.?
Yes
Does it change if Chase has Mind Games 9 gridded?
Chase having mind games 9 would be too slow to debuff. Plus you need to use the lum berries. Take out 2 birds with one berry
That would be the optimal grid
What do you know, I have a near-exact same grid as yours
Potions have no delay if you use it on someone at full hp
Isn't poppy 3/5 sync still better than solgaleo?
im still noticing a slight delay tho
...and i still gotta ex poppy
cant wait for the month to end
just need 4 more 5* PU?
hopefully poppy hits harder than sc selene
I can 8/5 poopy after the monthly reset
but will probably stop at 9/5 since that passive is ass
I did dexio chase and rosa befor
Go go @safe prawn 
Need mind games on chase
3 hit chase whit mind games in grid mean -6 def in 3 hit
Its how i score more then rmt syi back then
@true locust Think i should swap Chase and RedLax or it wont change munch ? I think i'm hitting the limit of what Zinnia / Elio can do without full invest gear 🤔
Zinnia u mean then ?
I’m trying!!
Yeah i'm tryiong with what i have for dark, its either zinnia 3/5 or marnie 5/5 but i feel the param make marnie not good ?
Cyrus out for a spammer works, or keep Cyrus and build a team around him
Cyrus for Dark Area, Chase was more like " hey why not use him "
Cannot Cake Cyrus so im not really sure to build around him 🤔
Will try H Jasmine then, H lilie only 1/5 i think is not optimal yet ?
New gio 1/5 also game has not been nice yey
H lillie can work 1/5 too
Lillie 1/5 is fine, only needs EXR really to be optimal
You miss just head 1 grom grid
Nothing important
H jasmine can boost from grid attack zinnia and give super up next
Then for H Lilie i have a question, you spam sing, and use her moove before every sync ? i feel it take so long even for the -2 count
or u just spam sing ?
You first put them sleep
So have 2 team speed
When low gauge use hear tm
H jamsine need from grid take hit apply para
So she para any time when get hit
That make sens so far indeed
And for psychic use chase not lax
Better
You get more syncs
And easy maks special elio
But i loose the super effective no ?
You get 2 more sync
( but noted everything, gonna fo my homework now teacher )
This way
You have eva miss
And circle boost
And can use elio heal move also faster set up
Since chase set him for all
@vagrant ivy hey can you show me how you did the poppy clear bc i cant wuite figure it out. Whats the grid on poppy
so firstly i dropped charging infliction since you get the bars back anyway
secondly the grid is 10E and thirdly i had like 15% gears
i'll show later busy rn
Hmm its alright
ss steven is the one tech ex thats better in 3v3 than 3v1
I just want to round it to 2m but it's way more difficult than I expected 
i think this can still be improved further but its what i used
thanks
No Olympia I reckon?
Ive got 1/5 olympia
Any semi ftp clears for Dark and Psychic?
Finally, was able to get that 3rd Serena sync off
hoping datamine has a steel pair to save my butt
Wtf, just realized i did the run on +4 atk
Means i forgot to click Gio’s TM 
But i dont know if topping off would make much difference, i hit damage cap on each of the last 2 syncs
Actually, your score is close to the top score anyways
people breaking the doc
First try. 😄
But I still have a lot of margin for improvement....
I hope to make it into the TOP 20
ok dark option might be dc cheren
had to roll head start 1 off a bronze deluxe because I ran out of golds and I was running cold on silvers

I see the light on the Shauna stage (no second Steven MPR)
“No second”
I’m mad I’m not getting the fourth (and sync crit ofc)

was thinking vs ny poppy or poppy without another spammer, comparing poppy to solgaleo both with aaron or w/e could make her better
They should make the damage challenge rewards up to 1.5 million; the last 500k being the sync orbs lol
Ooof, Riley gets a better score than Rei when accounting for my roster? That's just sad 
riley is decent
exr
When it’s 3v3 and your exr is striker you are most of the time good
Even supports with striker exr can get 1mln
For the psychic type super sparring part, I have both champion Blue and Rosa. I don’t have Jacq - just all these in terms of psychic dps. I don’t have the candies to rank them up, so what’s the next best dps?
I want 3v3 fire to test Anni N aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 
I know the feeling of getting a new unit or new EXR and wanting to use it on a stage but you have to wait for the stage to rerun
fellow anni n ex rolers 
In 4 month lol
feel like 6m is safe to say he'll get, could go higher but idk by how much
6 leers is not at all a bad way to debuff with leaf
just lacks the sun for leaf's sync
if only solar sync worked like field ex
they did do a good job with making field ex good that way, would have sucked if they left it like the passives like solar sync
works for the sync that it activates and has no delay
trying to max out anni n's innate will be hard
-18 on all 3 enemies
-6 to both offenses too
we gotta wait 4 months anyways though cuz fire 3v3 JUST HAPPENED 
-6 on both offences? Oleana can- wait, she can only do it to poisoned opponents

ah
without leaf i still had v marnie to debuff for single and even then i couldn't afford to max innate
2 pyro balls to -2 defenses total and a b move so only getting to 14-16
but yea nothing else sets sun and debuffs aoe beyond nc leaf or v marnie b move
I wanna try him with leaf and bianca and spam Noble Roar (he has accel on TM)
don't believe so iirc
Nope, move has to be successful
could work then
Originally was gonna do the work with Bianca like my previous record , but it became obvious real quick that I may as well just use Hop.
Skill gear used, 42%. +80 Atk
that's about as far as I'm willing to push this, any more of it and I think I'd start feeling my brain leaking out of my nose
If you share your roster you may get some advice to score more points without frying your brain maybe
If you're willing to get a single 30% MPR and a single quadqueue you most definitely have way more on the Shauna fight
I went to go look at my grids and poma crashed so maybe that's a sign from God to stop playing
Definitely don't feel pressured to keep going now, you're totally okay to take a break and come back to this another time
yeah you get to decide what's important
So of these characters, which one should be my attacker? For the psychic stage?
Lucian hits pretty hard in single target if you set him up
Im ngl the actual best pair in the bunch might be olympia lol
great nuke and evasion
this is very true
it depends on the supports you have too
The top score has Champion Blue and Champion Rosa and I have both of those; I also have SS Bendan, Red/Snorlax. I don't have Chase though
Ex Olimpya if you can and I’d use Giovanni strat in the dark stage
you got a grid for gio handy?
need guarded entry 3 for sure to cut down on setup, rest can change depending on your needs
infliction freebie makes the gauge safe but it's possible to go without it
lot cheaper to get to infliction freebie through the sync tile
Finally I'm happy with this score, because I only need to roll gears instead of spending cookies/candies 
Mostly stole the runs from the doc + stdk, thank you! 
Maybe i might improve if i'm not lazy enough to roll for god gears, rolling for nc serena dark's gears was already pain 
NC Serena would want Water gear tho
did you need seun mpr for cerena or did you use lillie's b move
All seun mprs from HJasmine
oh i used the dark sync boost damage on champion skill, did it count? 
did you get cerena's tm mpr
Just roll for standard champion gears with dmg on paralysis 
did you sync with Jasmine? o.o?
no, only capped at +4 atk from HJasmine's team fierce entry. This is the run I tried to copy: https://youtu.be/AHni-73dnW0?si=rEms7GY9Syl7_60l
This was an extra lucky run! The typical set up was to get 4 Serena syncs with SEUN on all 4 (either w refresh or sneak in Lillie B Move). That typically got 2.2-2.3M. Once I noticed how crazy lucky this run was going with misses, flinches, and paras I decided to try to get 5 Serena syncs, so unfortunately wasted the SEUNs on the earlier portion...
okay well noted! 
While it's common to get one slot of opp paralysis sync damage, it's way more elusive to get the second and third slot 
Yep! To raise NC Serena's atk by 2
noice
thanks 
Good luck! 
Oh while we're at it turns out you're my most watched youtuber in 2024 
oh i'm honored 
missed a crit but it's sooo much more consistent than using cyrus so thaaanks
wait no soften up on NC Serena?
Yeaaah I had it so I could worry about other rngs: flinches and dodges 
And some paras but they're very elusive
olympia, meanwhile, was significantly more co-operative

No mpr for last Sync
this faints the spheal...

Less ally move dmg means that my 1/5 Giacomo is cooked
Unless if bmove doesnt give a damn
1/5 giacomo is indeed cooked
ok new best
got back into top 100 with this but no ss lear idk if i'm gonna stay there
How does one get that high with triple steel? I thought you would need a sync cooldown spammer lol
rose deals good damage without sync spam, think it's always been the best way to use him anyway
Just attack normally with the ss Lear, Anni Lillie, and AS Steven?
well he's been used offtype for his rock and ground moves so that requires actually using them
dunno the exact strategy but there should be a video somewhere
I see
yeah it's in the clear sheet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X05aCejWIS4
Wow
the aoe b moves with no aoe damage penalty are pretty good
rose also has no aoe penalty, that's why he works
I have nemona tierno wally at 3/5
Which dc pair should i 3/5 next
i really like silver even at 2/5
flying zone is rare and his aoe sp def buffs are nice
esp when teaming w ss ethan
Aight silver it is



quickly f2p
