(This was the theme I originally had before I did the sun-themed video, and it turns out this theme is still relevant to a datamined unit hahaha. Funny how that turned out.)
There are several stages this week that have evasion gimmicks so I figured I’d do a whole themed video that straight up ignores them. Aside from the various moves that never miss, PokeMas also has the Piercing Gaze ability, which applies that “never miss” quality to all of the unit’s moves. Sync moves also ignore evasion so thankfully I can use them here.
Here’s how each battle went, and the sync grids used:
Vs. Bruno: EX Lear / Oak / EX Skyla – https://pokemon-masters-stuff.github.io/#/team-builder/?id1=10137000000&e1=0&o1=750&g1=AAECAwQFBgsNGx0fISIjJicp&s1=5&id2=10066010000&e2=1&o2=738&g2=AAECAwQFBgcICQoMERITFRobHB0jJCUmJyg=&s2=1&id3=10016000000&e3=0&o3=750&g3=AAECAwQFBgcJDA8REhQVGBomJygp&s3=3
This stage is so unfriendly to Lear’s innate sync multiplier. In any case, our future king still does well here with one of the strongest no-miss moves in the game. Oak tries to help out with Swift debuffs but it sadly isn’t enough to counter Bruno’s constant buffs. Skyla completes the team with her defensive buffs and heals. She’s gridded for Aerial Ace but she unfortunately doesn’t get to use it here.
Vs. Lance: EX Champion Iris / Event Blue / Lillie – https://pokemon-masters-stuff.github.io/#/team-builder/?id1=10021900000&e1=0&o1=750&g1=AAECAwQFBgcJCgsMDRAREhQcHh8lJygr&s1=5&id2=10092800000&e2=0&o2=750&g2=AAECAwQFERUYGRwfIyUpLC4v&s2=3&id3=10118000000&e3=1&o3=738&g3=AAECAwQFBhESFRgaHB4hIiYnKCk=&s3=5
As much as I wanted to do a Striker Lillie clear, being stuck with Disarming Voice really crippled her damage. So I went with Champion Iris, who Lillie is more than happy to support with her Disarming Voice debuffs. Event Blue’s here to help out with Pecking Order, and he does get some good Overwhelm procs. That Tyranitar at the end ruined some attempts with Rock Slide flinches but it was not nearly as annoying as the clears after this.
Vs. Agatha: Masked Royal / Kahili / Phoebe – https://pokemon-masters-stuff.github.io/#/team-builder/?id1=10058000000&e1=0&o1=750&g1=AAECAwQFBgcICQwNDhEcHyIjJA==&s1=5&id2=10117000000&e2=0&o2=750&g2=AAECAwQFBggJCwwNDxQVFhcYLi8=&s2=3&id3=10049000000&e3=0&o3=750&g3=AAECAwQFBggKDQ4REhobHCYoKiwu&s3=5
The hardest clear to get here, as it took so long to figure out what was needed to actually get this clear. First, I needed Phoebe to live until after the first sync, which is easier said than done since both Thunderbolt and Shadow Ball do massive damage on her. Then, once I figured that out, I still had the side Lunatone to deal with since Icy Wind was an OHKO. Finally figured out that Darkest Lariat + Beak Blast was enough to KO it with Defense debuffs, but it was a painful road getting to that point haha.
Vs. Lorelei: Cobalion / Lisia / EX Fall Caitlin – https://pokemon-masters-stuff.github.io/#/team-builder/?id1=10215000000&e1=0&o1=750&g1=AAECAwQFBgcTFB0fIiMlKSorLQ==&s1=5&id2=18000020531&e2=1&o2=738&g2=AAECAwQFBgcJCwwNDhATFC4=&s2=3&id3=10095400000&e3=1&o3=738&g3=AAECAwQFBgcJExYXGhscHR4hIyUmKQ==&s3=2
Thank Arceus Defog fits with the theme as I wouldn’t have been able to clear this otherwise. It was still pretty difficult though – you’ll see me frantically clicking Sacred Sword in the final turns of this clear haha. Lisia is weak to Ice so I had to prioritize Sp Def debuffs so she could tank the sync. Both Cobalion and Fall Caitlin have Synchro Healing to help with survivability.
Vs. Blue: EX SS Red / Support Farfetch’d / Erika – https://pokemon-masters-stuff.github.io/#/team-builder/?id1=18000020541&e1=60&o1=0&g1=&s1=1&id2=10000000000&e2=0&o2=750&g2=AAECAwQFERQXGBkiIyQoKy4v&s2=4&id3=10008000000&e3=1&o3=738&g3=AAECAwQFBggLDQ4PEBUYHR4fIyUp&s3=3
After those last two nightmare stages it’s nice to end this on a much easier note. I brought Support Farfetch’d as he’s the only Attack buffer I had left to boost SS Red’s Haymaker, and his Defense buffs also helped out Erika. I got extremely lucky with SS Red’s Propulsion procs here to get to the second sync, but I think it makes up for DuckDuck’s Endurance being ruined by Exeggutor’s Bullet Seed.
(I just realized after uploading this that I didn’t level up DuckDuck fully hahaha. Sorry about that.)
