Giratina is changed and is 300 now, but we have power creep now so it should be good
To be fair, used Victini to level up Hydreigon and Sableye's RML to further use them in escalation

I'm using Gengar as mega; Sableye doesn't have MSU yet anyway, I'm going for those future 100BP Risk-Taker instead
Gengar/Hydreigon/Giratina/filler is the best team (Don't go with Darkrai as ghosts are immune to sleep)
>>
Already said so in the last thread, but the PSB grinds this time are especially pathetic. Keldeo is just the still running Kyogre with 10 less BP and no access to RML. Infernape apparently needs as many boosters as Greninja just to increase its proc rates on three matches (not even to 100% at max), no extra damage.

>>26537655
For early stages it doesn't matter, so right now I'm trying Absol and Sharpedo for pretty much the first time. Gengar and Giratina are maxed anyway.

Even better how we have to play a boss stage to get a crappy Level Up item.
>>
Just a note, if you bring Magmortar with you to Mega Abomasnow and it uses its second disruption around one that's already on the board, it'll activate it's disruption again after the combo has finished. While it's incredibly improbable, it's theoretically possible to keep having multiple combos go off in one turn.

Strangely enough, it won't actually activate +-Boost if the match is from a disruption though
>>
>>26538288
what were they thinking
>>
>>26538763
I don't think it's that improbable, happened to me a couple times already.
>>
Does anyone else dislike the skill booster update? I have no time to grind Greninja, Kyogre, or Infernape for skill boosters, and on top of that the game wants me to also do an escalation, and even further than that theres more mission cards. And if all that wasn't enough I have to grind coins for all this junk, and STILL beat the main stages.
>>
>>26539229
Skill booster stages are not worth the time and the coins. Just focus on the escalation and the new mission cards
>>
>>26538763

I got three or more disruptions like this on a couple of turns, but I will point out that you need a combo of at least 2 for the next disruption to be activated immediately, if you have a 3 match up/down or to the sides and it doesn't create another match, it won't disrupt again until next turn, unfortunately.

I'm over 70K in NA and I don't know if that's gonna be enough to get double speed ups to be honest.
>>
>>26539229
Just don't waste your time or coins on it. GS will realize soon enough (if they haven't already) that a majority of people except the uber-autists don't care about this method. I'm just hoping that the Eevee next week is just a trial stage to add another weekly stage like Victini and Meowth.
>>
So why do the heck do Ground, Poison, and Ice get combo abilities, but not Grass or Water? I'm not complaining that they got them but they should have been given to the types that needed them.
>>
So anyone know why Victini showed up today? Is it still coming on Sunday?

>>26539229

If I have time I work on the skill booster stages, if I don't, I don't worry about it. I'm fully caught up on main stages, but I'd be doing them before these skill up stages, since they seem to be a permanent thing.
>>
>>26539229
Yeah fuck that shit, I'm not paying coins to grind. Don't like paying coins at all, but I'll probably continue for the one-offs like Electivire/Magnortar. It's a slippery slope though.
>>
>>26539229
If anything, it means I'm save editing more to counter the extreme jewishness and neutralize the grind.
I'm still going to do the whole Giratina escalation though, at least you know when that one ends.

Hell, escalations would have been a perfect format for personalized skill boosters, but that would have probably meant less or no mega speedups.

>>26539447
Unless you suck ass at Meowth, you generally get to play the 400 coin stages more than 10 times if you play the Meowth stage 10 times. And it's definitely guaranteed with the 300 coin ones.
>>
>>26539478
The problem with the personal boosters is more that they're so obnoxiously rare.
>>
>>26539508
Exactly, an escalation where by doing all 200/300 levels ended with the mon in particular being at max skill would be neat.
Assuming no one is unlucky enough that by the time skill ups start dropping it hasn't caught it, that is.

IIRC they also had Bellossom in the same week SM were revealed to be based on Hawaii.

There's clearly some conspiracy going on here.

>>26539904
We've been 100% Ashnime ever since Zydoge.
>>
>>26539489
But then you're not increasing your coins for the other levels/escalations.
>>
>>26540239
You're not doing that if you spend your hearts on special stages instead of Meowth either.
>>
PSA: just in case anyone was wondering, the missions where you trigger abilities like Block Smash only work with that specific ability, ie Block Smash+ doesn't count.
>>
Even if you fail Vivillon Itemless, you can still buy more turns with a jewel and still complete the mission.
>>
Anybody tackled mission card 5 yet? Some of the missions sound quite brutal (triggering M-Lopunny 10 times on Dragonite), though no idea how hard the stages themselves will now be with the power creep.

Yeah triggering abilities on timed stages is pretty annoying.

Yeah, honestly they are all pretty easy. Heatran was the only one that seemed a bit of a pain, so I just dropped a C-1 and +10s to get it over with, beat it comfortably 20 secs over target.

Just got the last 4 missions on card 6 to go. Will probably get the 60,000 on M-Obama later this week, might need to play about with Nidoking a bit to get it right. The 120 is just reliant on RNG on a 3 min stage, but Vivillion is gonna be a pain.
>>
>>26542127
Damn, actually scratch that, these mission cards are super easy, just did the Nido and Viv ones, 2 to go.
>>
>>26541681
>>26541835

Beat it itemless with M-Absol (5), Yveltal (7), Darkrai (7), and Giratina (2) with 1 move left so it's not that hard considering my team's pretty shit.
>>
>>26542748
Go buy a lottery ticket.
>>
>>26541681
Did it itemless with M-gengar, Absol, Weavile, Zoroark. Only Gengar is maxed

I focused on getting Mind Zap and Astonish to proc.
>>
>>26542127
I have 80k+ on obama but havent got the achievment. Im not 100% sure if i accepted the mission card before that thought
>>
>>26543148
You didn't. I got the 35000 point mission on whatever the competition was back when the first cards came out.
>>
I can't be the only one saying "fuck the Raichu mission."
>>
I can't beat Magmortar, is it that hard itemless or am I just really bad?
>>
>>26543388
The later, Magmortar is definitely doable itemless unlike Electivire
>>
>>26543388

He's a dick but doable. I beat him with M-Fug, Groudon with max quake, Golurk and Rampardos (don't have Gigalith), but I was only winning with 3-5 turns left. Luckily caught him on my fifth or sixth attempt.
>>
>>26543439
I don't see what I am doing wrong then, should I keep M-Aerodactyl or swap it? My other mega option is Swampert but I don't think it's going to help
The team I beat him once was M-Aero, Tyranitar, Aurorus and Groundon but I guess it was luck, I probably should just use Shuffle Move every time
>>
>>26543501

Aerodactyl's probably only really useful if you use mega start and there's too many metal blocks for Mega Swampert to be useful. You should bring block smash+ mons with a different mega or use a mega start on your aero.
>>
Newbie here with a question about the competition: do you only get one shot at it, or can you do it over again to improve your ranking?
>>
>>26543689

You can do it as often as you like as long as you have a heart.
>>
>>26543689
Over and over again as long as you have the money since doing it without all items is idiotic.
>>
Is M-Abomasnow new? I can't remember anymore.

I don't even have regular Abomasnow, so I can't tell if I got the stone or not. I'm so tuned out of this game by now.
>>
>>26543771

No it's a repeat.
>>
>>26543771
It's not new. If you have the stone, Obama will be in your Pokemon list as a silhouette.
>>
>>26542785
Beating level 50 itemless is usually doable in any escalation.
>>
>>26543798
How do you tell the sillhouette from the actual? He is just a black guy after all.
>>
>>26543388
I beat it itemless 3 times with M-Aero, Relicanth, Pupitar and Garchomp. Focused on getting mega evolved as soon as possible and from them on, when there were no rocks/blocks, focused on clearing magmortar icons making double matches
>>
>>26543388
There is no real way to be bad in this game, unless you try to intentionally. The RNG is the sole factor of how good you do.
>>
>>26544109
(You)

Sure, choosing a team is irrelevant and every move results in a 10+ combo. Also, abilities are all the same.
>>
>>26543771
if you have the mega stone but not the pokemon, then the said pokemon will be transparent other it will be a black silhouette.
>>
>>26544052
I should be able to do it then, maybe I've been unlucky

New HP graph for 1.3.12. This is only a guess, but it's almost certainly right.

The cause of the glitch was they just lazily put the stage in ID order, and because lv 100 was from the first run and lv 51-99 were the second run they were put in that order.

This fucking faggot game does it on purpose doesn't it? If only those fucking cucks at CS hadn't got rid of the banked hearts ffs
>>
>>26547461
You could stop playing at 1 heart left and wait to recharge in order to prevent this exact situation.
>>
>>26547461
>>26547488
Actually, you can just close the 3DS once the first heart is spent, during the stage or on the screen right before you return to the map. That way you can regen 5 hearts.

Why?

M-Abomasnow's disruptions can spawn Magmortars, meaning that bringing it along gives you a better chance for combos. It's a must if you're aiming for the top 700.

Yes, I just got 96+4, and skipped stage 100. Come to think of it, I skipped 50 as well.

I wonder how many of the top scorers are Supremefags. GS did the complete opposite of what they should do by introducing Skill Boosters, since they are so absurdly hard to obtain in large enough quantities the legit way, but piss easy by cheating. And they can make a whole lot more of a difference than speedups (many recent comps had MS available anyway) or the limited number of viable RML mons.
>>
>>26549981
Wouldn't that make it more obvious for GS to single out? If they supremed Delphox's Pyre and Magmortar's +-Boost all the way to Maxfor example, I'm sure GS would be able to record that information and remove them from the competition when the scores are calculated since it's impossible for that to have happened.

The only things that can get a pass that's not as suspect would be Infernape.
>>
>>26549981
I don't mean to brag, but I'm a top scorer and not a supremefag.

Yeah... No buddy, it's definitely gonna be a bit harder to rank higher now unless you're supreme.

It 100% was not a glitch, They have control on when it can happen and Latios was a repeat so they disabled it or made it extremely rare.
>>
>>26552196
Yes. You can give yourself max coins, max hearts, and max jewels along with max amounts of each item, and you can edit every Pokemon's levels and skills.
>>
>>26552601
There were some things in the Zygarde escalation, such as reading wrong stage data (mostly HP) that pointed to skipping being an unwanted thing.

Additionally, we noticed fewer rage activations in the early stages of an escalation, where stage set boundaries are rather thinly spaced. On higher stage numbers, it seemed closer to ~20% for me again. And I don't remember anyone reporting on these threads that they skipped bosses or boundaries between sets for the last escalation. (though maybe I missed the posts)

Well, good for you if you actually manage to skip a boss stage and aren't just lying on the Internet.
>>
>>26550576
The point is that the advantage that cheaters have has increased significantly. It used to be only unlimited tries but most were too lazy to take advantage of that.
Given the bullshit HP on Escalations, I'm inclined to believe that they're doing this completely intentionally.
>>
>>26552720
I'm the guy who first noticed and explained the HP glitch.
I've been carefully watching when skips happen (on Zygarde, Latios, and now Giratina) and they only time a spill over happens is on boss stages (not at all on Latios, and none so far on Giratina but I'm only in the 80s). If it was simply an off by one error I would have noticed spillage into a non-boss stages by now.

I got Giratina angry at 96 +4. Does that mean it's going to be level 100 when I play? fuck
>>
>>26554268
no, it means you get to skip it
>>
>>26554268
You're gonna play stage 96 with 100's HP I think. I'm not certain about the rage mechanics since I mentally filtered all that talk when it came to the 3DS
>>
>>26554362

Yeah just did it, it definitely wasn't a boss stage and I got my RML. Nice.
>>
>>26554364
Pretty sure you just play L96, but it tells you it's L100. When you beat it it's like you beat L100 so you end up on 101.
>>
>>26554590
Hmm, so the statement on serebii is wrong then

>As of Version 1.3.6, Escalation Battles now have a new feature where sometimes the Pokémon will get angry. Doing this means the level of the stage increases by between 2 and 5 levels. This takes the base level of the original level and uses the Hit Points of the current one in order to create the stage.

I don't know whether to rejoice knowing I might get the Mega Stone and the two Speedups without having had wasted a single coin or cry knowing I could've been top 5 had I bought AP+ and will have to find another way to score 60k points, not that I'm doing Card 6 anyway, the prices suck compared to Card 5
I ended up among the first 2500, if I fall out of the first 5000 I just might retry it with AP+, but it is also sad knowing I'm definitely not gonna get as lucky as I did on my itemless run
Also, speaking of Card 5, how do I beat the Heatran mission? I'm definitely gonna have to buy C-1 for that but I'm afraid I might fail and waste those 10k coins in vain

Anyone on escalation 126+?

What is your team/strategy? I tried bringing pawniard to remove the block, it seems to work so far. But I am concerned about the loss in dps, especially as we go higher.
>>
>>26557670
I'm just using Jellicent for Mind Zap and Trevenant for Swap+, since I still don't have Hydreigon
>>
>>26556783
Nidoking starts spamming Nidoqueens when its health gets below 50%, so go gentle on him and after you've cleared enough rocks murder him
>>
>>26558306

Thanks. That Chestnaught Strategy though... Not so much. Near impossible to keep a combo going.
>>
>>26556783

To add to what >>26558306 said, Nidoking spawns rocks whenever you match 3. Combo length doesn't matter, just that the initial match is only 3 mons.
>>
>>26558890
I took M-Aero, Dialga and Zygarde50, following this video I saw, and it worked on my second try.

This system is retarded, they should just allow players to choose with stage they want to unlock but still keep the number of S-ranks required to level the playing field.

They are still range from misleading to flatout wrong. Delphox has one icon despite having one of the best abilities so far. Meanwhile Po5+ Genies have three icons.
