>Catch Giratina-O
>Sinister Power.

It's Numel all over again...

I did stage 40 itemless, is 70 also possible itemless?

>>26983471
>>26983057 said he barely got 100 itemless, but with maxed SB's. I'd say 70 need at least DD and Time+10. 100 might need even more (AP+)

>Giratina-O's skill
What a shame. I was looking forward to using both Giratinas in this escalation.

My team is gonna be M-gengar(10), Giratina(10), Yveltal(9), Zoroark(8). Can't help but wonder if that's gonna be enough or I'll curse my lack of Absolite like in the last Giratina esc.

>>26983618
>I was looking forward to using both Giratinas in this escalation.
Are you dense? It might not be as bad as with both Landorus but they still look pretty similar, it would be "okay" if it was turn based but it is not
At least you just said you won't be using Giratina-O, but even if it had gotten an ability that didn't suck you would've fucked up real bad by bringing both

>>26983282
>>26983850
Heck why?

After fucking up this badly with Giratina-O, I fully expect Primal Groudon to get Pyre while keeping its Ground type.

Friendly reminder to only bring 3 Pokémon to Regirock and not bring a single one with delaying abilities
If you hadn't caught Regirock the two/three previous times it came and already wasted coins on AP+ and Mega Start or C-1 or a full item run you're a huge retard
If you want to farm PSBs bring 3 Pokémon and Regirock
I don't recall anything about Regice or Registeel's stages but I don't give a fuck about them

>>26985432

Why only bring 3 pokemon? Doesn't the game autofill one?

>>26986166
It fills the 4th with Regirock

Alright guys, are any of you gonna use a skill swapper on celebi for cheer? Nows the only time to get SBs for celebi so I thought I would ask.

3ds fags how hard is jirachi to catch, do we need full items or a few?

>>26986338
It's once a day, so you get literally 3 chances to catch him. Go all in and cross your fingers

Good news everyone (3DS): I was on my last heart and so I started Giratina and closed my 3DS, then I went to go cook dinner and came back after eating (about 40 minutes later). When I completed the stage, I got rage after returning to the map, with the full 10 minutes. So rage starts when you get to the map, and this remains a viable strategy for not wasting hearts on 3DS

>>26986647
we already knew that you dumbass

>mfw competitions give much lesser M-speedup now compared to the past
>mfw it is much harder to max out M-fug now
>mfw it is much harder for new players to catch up now

>>26984817

I would fucking hope not.

That would be Kyurem-W. Meanwhile, Kyurem-B gets Super Bolt.

>>26986797

>mfw you fuckers wasted all of your speed ups on Mega Fug instead of just doing the 5 meowth runs to have a mega start.

>>26986319
I used the first Giratina SS on Ho-Oh and I'm planning on using the second one on Celebi. Speaking of Ho-Oh, I'm thinking of grinding its Pyre to at least level 2. Anybody know a good team to clear that stage itemless?

>>26983501
the combo is shit. you cant have both activate.

>>26987031

Mega-Aero, Palkia

And whatever else probably?

>>26987031
I am getting consistant clears with M-chomp(12/12), palkia, tyranitar, gigalith.

>>26987643
>Only have Tyranitar out of those
thanks power creep, I guess I gotta wait for M Gyarados

>>26985432
Hey thanks, I wasted 15k on Regice and didn't catch it so knowing Regirock can be caught itemless is great news

>>26986955
>That feel when there's a competition and there's no Megastart for fug
You fucking moron. Nah but yeah, I thought the same until someone reminded me of this

So Giratina-POO gives us 32 skill swappers... What are people planning?
1. Spookify Gengar
2. Megaboost+ Ampharos
Anyone else?
Definitely not
Cheer Celebi (wow you mean I waste a turn to MAYBE activate an ability that MIGHT make the next ability activate?)
Pyre Ho-oh (Delphox exists making this only slightly not useless)

>>26987911
>32

>>26987911
>You fucking moron.
>32 skill swappers

>>26987911
>32
Nigga what

Assuming you aren't an absolute retard and meant to just type 2, I'm planning on using one on Ampharos. The other, I was either going to use on Gengar, Rotom (mega boost+ is useful), or save for Mew in case it's needed later.

>>26988058
It's obviously was typo, thanks for showing a modicum of logic and realising it. Which Rotom? Regular? Wouldn't that be electric Megaboost, entirely pointless with a Megaboost+ Ampharos?

>>26987440
What do Aero/Palkia get that makes SS good for them?

>>26988095
He means you should use Mega Aero and Palkia for HoOh runs

>>26987865
You should bring Dialga and Gallade with you tho, the Disruptions get kind of nasty towards the end (5 Blocks every 2 turns), it's probably based on moves left since I was once able to beat the stage before those disruptions started
If you don't have either Dialga or Gallade bring Golurk, if you don't have neither bring Manaphy as well and pray it activates Swap+ at least a couple times, Blastoise and Milotic might help as well with Stabilize+ if you also don't have Manaphy or Golurk or whatever

>>26986756
false

Also, namecalling is shitposting, don't do that again. And apologize.

Does Mega Boost Amph work on itself? Because damn that nigga takes forever to go mega.

>>26988350
we've known it since the first escalation dipshit

>>26988414
Have you never used Banette or Medicham before?

>>26988414
Going by Mega Medicham, it should, but its weird when it activates, I don't know if it actually works

>>26988095
it's the opposite; Ampharos get MB, Rotom gets MB+

we still have better options, ergo, RML Suicune

>>26988169
I'll bring Manaphy and Dialga then.

With all of these new items why don't they just give them out as daily rewards like other games?

Like 2 Speedups, 2 Skill Swaps, 4 RMLs, a bunch of 2000 coins, a ton of Exp S & M and 1 Jewel every month.

>POPULAR (keyword) free to play game that makes money through micro-transations

Well it's still better than Dancing Dragons, and Rotom is outclassed now anyway, unless... Don't tell me it takes RML now too?

>>26990340

>>26991813
I just went for a Pyre team with Reshiram to get rid of the ice. Could've beaten it with 9 moves left, but the combo ended just shy of the knockout. No catch unfortunately.

Is Gengar really a good choice for a skill swapper? I mean, he megavolves pretty fast so I figured his skill usually doesn't even matter that much.

You do know that Gengar sucks on stages with heavy disruptions right? Hence why nobody fucking bothered bringing him to Deoxys
Using Absol in stages like those is the better choice since he can erase disruptions, and having a team with Spookify Gengar and Weavile could help delay the disruptions to make the stage even easier, just the freaking previous Escalation people were bringing shit like Spiritomb besides Weavile and Absol to prevent Giratina from disrupting

I feel so happy for finally catching that faggot star fairy and filling that hole in my dex.

Now if only they released the other Unova and Sinnoh starters

>>26988058
All-around stupid choices. Ampharos is still a shit mega, Rotom would be redundant with it. Gengar's ability is good but you only get one or two chances for it to proc before going mega (and why would you use Gengar as non-mega). And Mew's abilities are shit across the board, either because alternatives exist or because of the few Fighting/Poison-types left.

>>26992520
>implying Block Smash+ Mew

So how does leveling Mega Boost skill work? Does it level activation rate by 10% or activation by 10%?

>>26992520
>Ampharos is still a shit mega
That's just like, your opinion
I already gave the Skill Swapper to Ampharos and some stages that were basically impossible itemless became doable, Staraptor and Seismitoad for instance, Raikou really helped with Seismitoad too, giving the first Skill Swapper to it was definitely not a waste either

>>26992653
Now count all the potentially remaining Fighting stages, some of which might now contain any blocks.

Gave my skill swappers to: Raikou, Celebi, Suicune

Did I fuck up?

>>26992808
>Celebi
For what purpose?

Cheer is an overrated skill and unless you're giving Celebi all the RMLs in the world its useless.

>at some point Genius Sorority will unlock PSBs on normal and expert stages
>You want 100% Crowd Control? Spend a bajillion coins on Genesect!

>>26992842
Not that guy but I'm thinking of using a SS on Celebi too. Cheer is one of the skills that requires the fewest skill boosters and it's 100% on a 3 match when maxed. If you have the RMLs, which have been fairly plentiful, it becomes just as strong as other top tier Psychics.

>>26991940
I did that last year and didn't catch it. I got over 85% super catch rate so I'd rather pay for one great ball and be done.

The people who think Cheer is good are the same people who think Hyper Beam is the best move ever, but ignore all the dead turns.

>>26993284
Except with Hyper Beam you instantly have the strong attack and then have to wait. Hyper Beam is actually a decent cleaning move. Cheer is more like using Fly.

>>26993447
cheer is not like fly. on the first turn of fly, your mon dodges nearly every attack. on the turn you activate cheer, youd only be dealing 50 damage or so. that is a wasted turn when you could have done 1000 plus.

Which one?

>>26993570
None of the older graphs showed disruptions or added supports.

The just used different colors for new level sets (but you can just look at the jumps) and omitted HP on boss stages. Plus they had a white background and less retarded labels on the x axis.

>>26991939
>The best candidates for SS are [...] Mew,
Why? There's not even anything left in the game to use it on. There are exactly two fighting-types left (and the first in the family, Hitmonlee, was easy as fuck), and a rather small number of poison-types that are also part something else. So you'd be doing it almost exclusively for Keldeo-R, who doesn't even use blocks or ejectable Pokémon very often.

Rayquaza, Zoroark and friends is a decent team as long as disruptions doesn't fuck you over.

Does using skill swap reset the skill level you already have?

>>26995875
It doesn't reset the level for your original ability in case you switch back, but yes your new ability has a separate skill level

Holy shit, Jirach is so easy to beat. And here I thought I'd need all items or some bullshit.

>>26992009

It's five pixels in a part of the graph where I have no business to look at. Certainly I'm not the only one who missed this. And it still doesn't help much since it can't tell you how much harder the stage gets, i.e. whether you absolutely need C-1. You just have to make that trial run yourself or look at a more complete listing.

How fucking bad did you do to get such a low catch rate? And why would you throw Great Balls at anything with a catch rate lower than 70%? You could've saved all those fucking coins to buy MS and AP+ tomorrow to get a better catch rate, you could've even bought C-1 and it would've been cheaper

>>27010463
I finished with maybe 7-8 turns left?

To be fair, with a catch rate of >50%, I would have expected to spend 2 great balls at most.

>>27007818
>>27008064
>>27008274
Tina skipped my to 69 so I had to play 70. So far I haven't skipped any boss stages.

I used +10 s, DD and AP+ on 150 but it was overkill, so I'd suggest to just use AP+( add a DD only if you are not feeling confident in your skills)

>>27011476
95+4 means once you beat it you're on 100. If you skip it you might get anger on 99 but who knows.

>>27011452
That's why you always have 10k remaining when trying a special or extra stage.

Why the fuck? It's just a fucking Exp. Booster

>>27012772
Skill booster. And the faggot in >>26993570 lied again, also not a 5-mon stage.

>>27012957
Fuck, I must be an autist, I just saw the word "Booster" and assumed it was an Exp. Booster because they're so picky with these things and 130 seems like a weird number for a boss stage

What do I use it on guys?

Ho-Oh (I'm about 30 S-ranks from Delphox)
Ampharos (for mega boost because he's slow and I lack Manectric)
Suicune
Possibly Regirock when I catch it?
Entei?

>Possibly Regirock when I catch it?
Completely outclassed by Entei and some others (Flygon/Gliscor and Walrein) you don't have access to yet
>Entei?

>>27019339

100

>>27019339
50-70 BP turns into 100, 60-80 into 105, 70-90 into 110, 80-100 into 115, 90-110 into 120 at lv15.

>>27003621
Better than nothing then

I hate timed escalations so much

150 was easier than 100 or 130. AP+ should be sufficient here, +10s to play it very safe.

And with this, I'm out of this. RMLs probably aren't worth the investment and I still got 18 left.

>>27018815
>Ampharos
>Pure shit
Check your brain damage
>>27018691
If you don't have Delphox then Ho-Oh might be a good choice, but it would've been better if you waited for Delphox and saved the SS, Ho-Oh might have a higher base damage and be farmabe for PSB right now but Delphox is still really competent
Out of the things that can use them really few weren't awful options so I just plan on saving mine and wait till some other shit gets them, it's probably gonna be like a hundred updates before new Pokémon get to use them, but I don't plan on wasting it on shit like Donphan only to find out Primal Groudon also gets Ground Forces or something like that, they might even end up making it Fire type and giving it Pyre, and since Primal Groudon is obviously gonna be base 90 Ho-Oh would get outclassed then
Of course I'm not saying that's gonna happen, but the way they baited us into using the first SS on Raikou makes me think they might end up doing some shit like giving Barrier Bash+ to Thundurus-T, so I don't plan to take my chances with some other mon

151-199 are really easy. I have done 200 using Sinister Power team with DD,AP+ and C-1.
For me the Escalation ends here

>>27022030
Still a worse mega effect than Manectric and takes longer to evolve on average even with SS since you can't always trigger 4+ matches. Even if the anon doesn't have Manectric yet, Ampharos shouldn't be a top choice.

And after that last paragraph, you should better check your own brain.

>almost literally the same effect
NO. Manectric's effect is much more reliable to the point it's worth using Manectric over Ampharos even with MS when the level is cluttered with Barriers. Of course, Raikou makes it less necessary so you can go damage>disruption cleaning without much harm.
Say, for Zygarde-50 escalation boss, did you use Latios or Latias? I bet it was the first.

I cannot beat Exploud, this is by far the biggest cunt I've faced since MMY
I've wasted 15k coins on this motherfucker of now and had better runs itemless, but it just doesn't work
please save me, I want Rayquaza too

Should I blow my only 10 startups on mega gyarados shiny?
or shoudl i hoard for megafug
or is there a better mega to use (besides gengar and garchomp)

>>27030622
Have you maxed out Blaziken yet?

>>27030622
Fug should be your priority

I've been using my M Skill Boosters on Arceus. Did I fuck up or is his stage probably going to be hard as fuck and I'm doing it the smart way?

L-l-l-lick ma balls. Or were you guys with me? If so, brofist.

>>27032825
You already have Arecus?
It's event only... And if you already have him there's no reason to beat it again (except completion, which I like to do). And his stages is 4 of your mons plus Arceus and Giratina disruptions, so unless you plan to take in 4 normal mons there was no point to doing it.

Now if you did it for the sake of competitions, that might be wise, except using an Arecus Double-normal team is only good for times stages.

So yeah you kinda did fuck up.

>>27032825
The only thing Arceus is good for is Double Normal in timed stages, if you are very good at those and never drop your combo.

Otherwise you've wasted them.

>>27030622
Fug should always be the priority. He's useful in hundreds of levels let alone every single competition and escalation.

whelp, i finaly deleted this shit after i realized i stopped having any sort of fun with it and now i'm finaly free

one day you'll be there too

>>27033588
Godspeed, anon.

I have finished level 200 of the escalation and don't plan to go further, so I'm grinding coins until the next update. How many of you are going all the way to 300?

>>27035425
I'm stopping at 100 because escalations are fucking boring.

>>27035425
I'll probably do like last time and go to 230 as it's not a boss stage. After that it gets pretty annoying.

>>27035842
Two Experience Boosters M are just 400 XP. Might as well do four or five Ampharos runs and get the same or more for the mon you want to train + half for three others.

And it takes more than five hearts for you to go from 200 to 230.

>>27035425

I'm planning on going to 300 currently. If it becomes overly jewish I may change my mind, but I'm past 200 and still over 80K coins so I should be okay.

Pretty funny how quickly the Double Normal gimmick died out in competitions

>>27035425
Going to do 300, I have 70500 coins and I already have a plan for the PSB stages supreme my way to maxed out skill
All I have to determine is which PSB having pokemons are worth using the skill swappers on, maybe use one on Raikou and pretend I level up Barrier Bash+ instead

>>27038145
Ho-Oh took somewhere around 5-7 runs before it dropped its first PSB for me. I stopped feeding it coins after Pyre hit lv. 2, higher than a 50/50 activation is good enough for me.

>>27022284
What's the Sinister Power team? M-Absol, Yveltal, Darkrai, Zoroark? Should I have used RML on my Zoroark?

>>27028759
>he plays Roseus Center without max level mons

You will also need Gallade at the minimum otherwise you're going to have a hard time on Rock, Steel and Normal stages.

I beat Exploud itemless (rank B) without Gallade, just maxed Lucario/Medicham/Machamp/Conkeldurr and tons of RNG and a lucky super catch rate at 54%.

>>27044262
Appreciate it anon, but if I'm going to Rank S 230 stages I would rather use the coin to get to Fug, then backtrack with him
I'll keep trying with a variation of the team you recommended, I got no Machamp

>>27044262
>>27045289
Worked with DD and Moves +5 this time plus RNG going with me after he started having his convulsions. Thanks again anon.

Ok. Stage 200 on giratina. How are you guys doing it? Which items are needed? I went in everything except C-1 and still got him down to 1/3 health before I ran out of time.

>>27049303
In case you haven't finished it yet, C-1 is mandatory along with M-Gengar and a Dark duo with Zoroark included. Bring AP, DD and +10s as well and you will be pretty much done with that level.

>>27050214
That's exactly how I did it too, can confirm this works.

>>27049303
Just beat 130.

>>27011177
Which team did you use? I needed all those items with an M-Absol, all Dark team.
Mostly because I get easily disrupted.

So I was just thinking
Now that we have Skill Swappers, there's no way GS would pass on fixing some of their mistakes with Pokémon abilities right? I mean stuff like Greninja/Gorebyss, Bellossom/Ludicolo, Gliscor/Flygon, Cloyster/Kyogre, Scyther/Scizor, Misdreavus/Mismagius and anything else I might be missing
For those way too stupid to understand what I'm talking about, the Pokémon on those pairings have both the same ability, same typing and same base power, meaning they're literally the same shit except with a different icon (Of course some of them have a slight edge over the other one, like Kyogre getting RMLs or Scizor having a Mega, but still)
Now they can fix that, but will they? And what could they give to those Pokémon? I swear if they end up doing something like giving Gliscor/Flygon Ground Forces I'm gonna laugh so hard at those retards who already gave their SS and RMLs to Donphan

>>27052746
But I love Donphan.

Over twenty runs against Ho-Oh and the fucker hasn't given me a single PSB yet. Once I failed the stage by 500 points when it dropped two of them. Since then, fucking nothing.

>>27052746
>Scyther/Scizor
>Same typing

>Misdreavus/Mismagius

What the fuck am I missing here, because this is wrong as fuck.

With all these new Pokemon getting RMLs is Charizard still the best candidate?

>>27062039
By far, just feed the lizard already
Right after it the only other worthwhile candidates are Groudon and the three Legendary Beasts, maybe Zoroark as well but my autism wouldn't let me have a Pokémon at level 13 with an attack power of 99

>>27057446
>Your face when you'll also have to feed Angry Pikachu some SBs to make full use of it.

I never understood this meme though. We already knew Scizor would get a MegaStone anyway so why would people even bother with Scyther?

>>27003621
That's weird. The Japanese website looks to to say that Cheer increases only by 5%. I don't know why you'd advertise that your flavor of the week reveal has a super shitty effect, but I guess that's why they're the sonorous geniuses.

So what's the play for Giratina-0 250?
>30 seconds
At least it has less health than 200, should I go with the same team and items I used on that stage?

have any of you guys done giratina to 300? I kind of want to, but the difficulty of 280-300 is offputting. I'm at 150 and am not sure if its worth the time to keep going

>>27066625
We don't know what team and items you used but I guess so
>>27066710
There's not a single Speedup or Swapper after 150, besides getting bragging rights I don't know why anyone would want to go further than that

>>27067372
I used the same team and items that others in this thread have used: M-Gengar, base 80 Dark-type (I used Darkrai), and Zoroark with AP+, C-1, DD, and I brought Time+10 for good measure.

>>27068546
Whats the problem? I enslaved Conkeldurr to coin farming and I've only started getting RML recently

>>27068594
Don't know about everyone else but it stops being fun to play Escalations relatively quickly(Around the 150 to 200 mark) due to how quick the HP goes up, how quick or annoying the disruptions are, and the 250/300 ones have absurd amounts of health that even all items don't guarantee you a win. It's just too much effort for such a small reward, and then you have to end up grinding for coins again without even knowing if there will be a story update or some other major grinding you'll have to do with next to no coins left to do them.

>>27069245

Just beat 250 with M-Gengar, Darkrai, and Zoroark. All items, 2 seconds remaining. I normally suck at timed stages but somehow I didn't drop the combo once. Good luck to anybody else still on the climb to 300! I'll probably have to grind coins next week for the finish from 290-300.

>>27068594
We already have enough RMLs for the few viable mons. If you want to use them on garbage like Groudon or Pachirisu, you'll obviously need more.

Personally, I've decided last week that I wouldn't go further than 150 (or whatever would be the last boss stage beatable without C-1). Though I also expected that Raikou would drop some RMLs for me the week before.

Ground is SE against 5 types, a Pokémon with a power of 110 that can hit 5 types for SE damage is useful as hell even without "muh ability", I mean, people totally bring Yveltal and Darkrai to Ghost stages because of their abilities, right?

You're neglecting the heavy competition it faces on all of these, save for Electric stages. And even there, you already have Garchomp and Landorus-T (which does more damage in the long run), plus often something like Golurk or Gliscor to deal with disruptions. Groudon only competes for the fourth slot.

And for those Rock and Fire stages that Quake works on, Kingdra has a more reliable ability in Whirlpool.

>he brings Darkrai to Ghost stages
You're not making it any better.

>>27077599
Completely correct. Groudon is garbage.

>>27065442
Exactly. I believe it started way back when a guy was using Scyther on his team and refusing to accept that it was a waste of xp and that he should just use Scizor instead. His retarded argument was that because MScizor wasn't out yet it didn't matter (yet he didn't want to use Scizor? Iunno) and thus a meme was born.

>>27077631
>I'm so dense I can't come up with a proper answer myself so I'll just wait until somebody else does it for me so I can keep talking shit
>>27077599
You're still forgetting about Ground Forces, Ground might be already outclassed by Fire for Steel types, but until Water and Psychic get a Pyre/Ground Forces equivalent Ground types won't be completely outclassed for Poison, Fire and Rock types

Anyone know if Ground Forces and the Risk-taker bug stack?

>>27078396
Ground Forces is x1.2 with a miserable proc rate. Not sure whether you want to use a skill swapper for something so situational, at least at this point.

>>27078432
What bug?

>>27078478
Skill boosted Risk-taker 'activates' when a combo skill is procced even if its not the appropriate type. Ie Lando-T does greatly boosted damage on a match after Sinister Power activates.

>>27076909
If you're talking damage, Landorus-T deals much more overall

>>27078563
Then would be worth taking him with Pyre teams if you don't have M-Blaziken?

>>27078396
Huh? All your comments were here when I came into the thread. How have I waited for anything?

The problem with hoenn megas is that you need a lot of the mega on the board to make full use of its effect, whereas all mewtwo needs is a 3 match.

Yes. It offered an immediate advantage in the competition and lv 15 Raikou with BB+ will sure be useful in future stages(still many water types to be released)

>>27078478
>Ground Forces is x1.2 with a miserable proc rate.
That doesn't stop anyone from using Sinister Power, also
>What are Skill Boosters
>Implying Donphaggot will be the only Pokémon to get the ability

I'm still debating whether or not to use a SS on Celebi (already used two on Raikou and Ho-Oh). This will probably be the last chance for quite a while to get a mon with up to 100 power and Cheer with a 100% activation rate (due to skillgrinding on the current event). I feel like it could be useful to have. Maybe I'll wait for the next update and see if Suicune gets a special stage or something next week.

so did mega gyarados end up being worth it? I placed for the mega stone and realized afterward I forgot to capture the pokemon itself during the event.. (got the shiny though)

>>27080993
Used Mega Sceptile today and had one of my worst runs ever. 1900 coins. Absolutely nothing worked out as planned. Often it disrupted in ways that destroyed my planned matches of 5.

There's too much variance in those teams.

>>27086037
Apparently the Cheer boost is only 5%, so wasting the SS on Celebi/Pachirisu is retarded as fuck
Someone tested it and Cheer doesn't even make Po4/5+ have a 100% activation rate, anyone stupid enough to have already wasted a SS to get Cheer should consider suicide
>>27086347
