>What is Pokémon Masters EX?
A mobile Pokémon game that's real-time instead of turn-based and focuses on collecting trainers instead of Pokémon.

You like how Masters models look compared to the 3DS or switch, and she's now part of a fanservice gacha so you're less reluctant to be fond to her?

>she's now part of a fanservice gacha
Which has a lot of prettier girl than her, I feel she actually look better on Master than the core game and anime.

I think it is the hair colour.
In the anime and core game, her hair is light pale blonde that looks nearly white. On Masters her hair is more darker and golden blonde like Cynthia which makes her look better.
>>
>>56377676
Maybe it's just the lighting, then. They looked bigger in the intro of that battle where you fight her, Steven and Lance.

August chart is here !
Stakataka and Nihilego perform well for their debut month, the rest is terrible.

>The 2024 Top10
Last time we talked about the top 10 pairs it was like this (July 2024) :
NC Rosa 276
NC Blue 270
SS Acerola 228
NC Marnie 205
NC Serena 197
Irida 185
SS Serena 168
Iono 168
TINA 166
SS Morty 157
Red and Pikachu 153 (Since we have a tie)

But after a month things have quite changed !
NC Blue 298 (+1rank)
NC Rosa 288 (-1rank)
SS Acerola 258
NC Marnie 225
NC Serena 214
Irida 203
Iono 185
8)SS Serena 184
8)SS Diantha 184 (At July she was 12/13 with 151 usage)
8)TINA 184
SSMorty 182
Red and Pikachu 173

The king is back, Diantha is here thank to all the rock stages
The next update will be along the October Chart meaning that the December chart will also come with the 2024 Chart with the final ranking.

/pmg/ is not me nor (You) so we can't really predict things and the game is not set in stone so things can change in a month or two but with only few months left it's obvious that the new pairs that can rise to the top are quite rare (And of course a pair coming in December can't even dream to have 100 uses). Only the current Arc Suit have really a chance to perform well but they also help a lot of pairs of them the only one I believe in is Steven. He is physical Zapdos and that's enough for him to kick Morty or Red out + it will have three CS steel based since the new Red SCS look like steel (Olivia don't use any pokemon weak to fire Maybe I'm wrong). And while Cynthia and Lance are nice they either gonna slow down Courtney+ Runegrigus/NC Nate or at worse do nothing. But the biggest winner is Zygarde. Believe it or not but Serena is like a french student doing the Erasmus programme and she will suck any help she can find to have better grades. Cynthia ? Ground rebuff and Zone, Lance ? Free -6 Spdef and Dragon rebuff and Steven is a potion slut and the Mega have Team Triage Tool 9 (+ Debuff def/Spdef )
So yeah that's all ! See you next week !

>>56378815
I was thinking the same thing, imagining the three pairs fighting around each other on such a small battlefield. It's just too kino and they definitely don't have the budget or time for that, not even a few seconds' worth.
>>
Is it a stretch to think that this is all building up to volo getting some kind of “blessed” suit, like it’s a giratina powered “arc suit” type pair and it’s Ghost type. Also Rei fighting Arc suit in the future? Kinda seems like he’s the most deserving of it…
>>
>>56378999
He will have his Gira Suit with Giratina-Origin. And of course (You) and Pikachu (Arc Suit) will save the day
>>
>>56379008
>(You) and Pikachu (Arc Suit) will save the day
We're still relevant?
>>
>>56378978
I mean NC Silver got a comic i think some days after the banner went live, so maybe we'll still get something once all 3 banners are up. They did make a recap video of the stone chapter when that was wrapping up.
>>
>>56378999
>villains like Volo, Gio and Ghets will get Girantina suits
>Cynthia will probably get one just because LMAO
Honestly wouldnt happen just because there are very little villains. Everyone else being reformed or somewhat reformed, while Gio and Ghets are the last assholes still going. Oh and Lys i guess. Unless they start releasing villain varients from parallel worlds, which could be likely.
>>
>>56379017
You try to use the ultimate sync stone early on so I guess they want you to be important at some point. Don't really know how many 6EXlet we still have but I wouldn't be surprised we have Pikachu 6EX and the month after Torchic + Arc Suit (and EOS soon after)
>>
>>56378773
>doesn’t he look the same in all his pairs?
He doesn't, his New Year outfit is very different
BP/Lodge/whatever are cheap but unlike the arc suits they're not an elaborate joke that replaces what should have been actually new outfits and not the base one + pallet swap + 50 polygons
>>
>>56379038
Cynthia already has a Giratina themed outfit, what does she need two for

Anyone associated with Shaymin maybe? Marley or rosa? (Then again Shaymin can also be associated as flying so maybe not) Brendan has Mega Sceptile so he could be a pick. Adaman again because Leafeon. Whoever gets Noble Liligant in the future is a possibility too

Absolutely bonkers that even with the seven pairs that get 6*EX unlocked this month, there’s still so many left to be drip fed one or two every month.
And for that matter, sync pairs are getting expanded grids drip fed when (You) and (You) haven’t even gotten their grids at all.
I’ve resigned to the fact that Jessie and James will never get any upgrades at this point.
>>
>>56379412
I'll never understand why they chose Nate's voice actress. Most of the time I'm pretty astounded by the voice choices in English. I don't really like dubs, but most of the voices are surprisingly fitting rather than using the same anime dub actors for everything. Barry sounds like how I'd imagine Barry, Cynthia sounds like Cynthia, etc.

They could at least have made the suit fit him better. It's looks so bad all baggy like that, Lance should have a slim figure.

>>56378855
Wait, what happened to the Acerola anon? They vanish? Was looking forward to them having the full set now that seasonal selects are available
>>
>>56380572
Idk, too slim and they look like ladies like Steven, but I won't disagree that I'd appreciate if they tried to make the style across the generations more uniform.

It's a crime that these are just recolors, and the new palette is ass to the point I genuinely question whether these people have studied art basics. A 40% white, 40% black, 10% yellow palette is awful from a design perspective. Replace the black with cream or gold shades and make black at most a detailing color like yellow and it's at least no longer eye cancer. A warm tinted gray is also acceptable for contrast, but certainly not black and white, that's clown shit. Steven's suit is the only thing passable with such a color scheme.
>>
Are any of the select scouts a must have?
Fundoshi Hilda maybe?
>>
>>56380644
Entirely depends on what your roster needs. Out of all the seasonals I rolled I’d say I get the most regular use out of Fall Roxanne since she’s a great pseudo-support for pretty much every Ground type.

>Cynthia and Lance's aren't
Cynthias is god-tier, its clearly above any of the curent pre-Arc "uber" damage dealers
her damage makes NC red/NC Cheren/SST red etc. blush
>>
>>56380866
Just pick whoever you want. Hilda and Jasmine are both good options, Jasmine is way more generally usable as a tanky support that also gives SE up next AND Physical/Special Up Next on her TM at 3/5.
>>
>>56380869
She's just another damage dealer in a long line of attackers one-upping each other and will get one-upped herself, she's not a game changer like SS Lyra (Grassy Terrain introduction and 100% flinch with quick re-queue) or NC Blue (+6 SpAtk +3 Crit for the team in 1 button)
Lance is the same, just another nuker

Since DeNa is just reselling you pairing now, I think we need to consider that DeNa will find other ways to resell you popular old pairings that aren't meta relevant now that aren't through arc suits, especially if it is only limited to 1 per type. One example is that they might just resell you a more meta relevant, powerful version of Jasmine & Steelix through GSC classic or BDSP Jasmine. Or they resell you Misty & Starmie as HGSS Misty

Not sure how people might feel about that since it's the same mon and invalidates your investment through those older pairs, but at the same time, modeling a canon outfit is more effort than the palette swaps that arc suits are, and some people were asking for those canon alts.

They might also do seasonals of characters with a Pokemon they already use with their base version or with one of their other alts such as a summer Volkner with Luxray
>>
>>56381049
The future Arc pairs. Who might be characters we want.

>nta, just putting in my cents
>>
>>56381069
Sure, assuming they will happen and only one per type, that's still a massive niche.
Until then, the current Arc pairs are still top tier and the optimal pick for a lot of shit.
>>
>>56381068
Olds unit really just need new skills and they can be less fucked by powercreep Karen only have Flameproof and Wide Awake for exemple. I think that nobody would complain if they remove Wide Awake and use some shit like Troublemaker and Dishearten to have three skills like new pairs.
Really hope that one day they change/update them or give the player a way to give them missing passive skills with lucky skills or a new currency (with a bit more choice)
>>
>>56381022
I don't know if I should bother responding seriously to you since you already revealed you'll reach into your bag of meme answers like "meds" when you have nothing of value to say. Makes it evident you don't know what you're talking about but feel the need to chime in anyway.

>>56381049
The sand doesn't matter as much because it doesn't have an inherent boost, but there's already Courtney (F2P) and Rika (compressed into tanking slot) for Ground Zone and SC Lyra for AoE Ground Rebuff. V Gio in fact does set Ground Zone and Sandstorm in 1 unit as an unba bunga which is likely why they felt the need to stuff more into Cynthia to distract from that fact that he already exists. I already have both V Gio and SC Lyra so Arc Cynthia doesn't do anything special for my Ground team. Arc Steven is the one I'm much more interested in because his team setup and Steel Rebuff (Gloria only sets it on 1 target, and needs to be at 5/5) are far more unique and standout.
>>
>>56381216
Steven is definitely the most futureproof of the Arc units, the other two will get powercrept eventually. Nobody talks about Lear or SC Diantha anymore when the general couldn't shut up about them back then and Ash was an even bigger deal and people rarely mention him anymore.
>>
>>56381216
>You can do what Cynthia does with these three units
Sounds like fantastic role compression to me.
Do you need her? Not necessarily.
Doesn't change the fact that she's stupid good.

>>
>>56381255
>people rarely mention (Ash) anymore
He’s still part of the strongest (pre-Arc Suit) team in the game with SST Red and NC Blue…
>>
>>56381216
All those are vastly weaker than Arc Cynthia who basically compressed an entire TYPE into herself

The fact that you tried to suggest SS lyra was/is some kind of "game changer" is laughable
>>
>>56381291
>strongest (pre-Arc Suit) team
That would be Irida-NC Red with support of choice
Ice team surpassed electric awhile back

Ash especially was powercrept due to his lack of versatility
>>
>>56381296
I don't think you understand that the 'entire type' is just mathematically equivalent to damage scaling bonuses. You could just replace their existence with a higher offense stat or more multipliers, etc to manifest them the same way. That might be why it's lost on you why SS Lyra was a game changer, since you can't comprehend the idea of just stopping the opponent from acting entirely to decide the outcome of a game. She was able to solo CS with all or nearly all parameters or something absurd like that because the concept of her power was beyond just damage. Her existence is why Resilience is way more commonplace nowadays. If you want to laugh, maybe do it in a mirror.
>>
>>56381321
It’s actually funny, she was so game changing that they literally changed the game to soft-nerf her into the ground. She’s a pretty low value roll right now since Grassy Terrain is more widely distributed and her main gimmick can’t even be used in most “hard” battles.
>>
>>56381355
They nerfed stun and Piercing Blows over the years and through HSE/Ranked DC parameters have shown they could nerf other defining traits whenever they feel like targeting something, like how they boxed in what SSRC could be allowed to do. There's nothing stopping them from going after any unit they want down the road, especially when they feel they're ready to sell something new. People are already aggravated with B Moves for instance despite being one of the newer gimmicks because of how long they take, eating at field uptime and DC timers.
>>
>>56381393
I’m reminded of that one battle (forget if it was an extreme battle or one of the UB’s) with a parameter that raised the opponent’s defenses if a field effect was active, presumably as a counter to SST Red, yet people cleared it with him anyways lol
>>
>>56381321
>She was able to solo CS with all or nearly all parameters or something absurd like that
That took literally hours and was only possible on ONE specific CS stage (I think it was Alder) due to how he worked and has less TMs than others or something
Completely irrelevant metric

>GSC classic
Classic outfits have been a thing since year 2 at the latest. It's dumber that they haven't explored this much further if anything.
I'd of course prefer more interesting pairings but I'd be okay with a 2nd Steelix depending on the context. And if it avoids becoming her 5th support in a row then all the better
>>
>>56382512
IMO a support that doesn't buff her team's Def/SpD and is Ground weak is one that will struggle in the tougher battles compared to other options.
She is still good for stuff like CS.

>>56382968
depends how many gems you have, she is pretty op but the 500 pity points are too much for a newbie
>>
>>56382975
I get like 8000 gems after I finish chapter 1 with all the rewards.
>>
>>56382979
Pity requires ~45k if I did my math properly. Units other than the new anniversary trio require 'only' 36.6k gems.
Steven (releasing tonight I think) is probably the most powerful unit to reroll for. There are lots of different DPS units for you to mix and match with and you will sometimes find that you want to use a type other than Ground to do damage. On the other hand, supports are more universally useful and don't care about type matchups. Steven is the physical equivalent to last year's Blue + Zapdos which was the strongest special support in the game.

Grab Steven tomorrow and then take SS Blue as your free unit for completing the tutorial thing and you'll be all set for supports for quite a while. You'll find loads of different DPS that will do just fine for most content.

wanted to say this. Also how do you even quad queue consistently anyway? I can never consistently pull it off so I have resorted to running Adrenaline on many supports and just "nodont get crit bro"

Guys I think I fell for the 5/5 tile trap
I was like "fuck it" since I had almost 100k gems saved and spent pretty much all of them to spark for Steven twice and only got him to 4/5.
What a shame, I wanted to roll for SS Kris in September to pair her with Archie then try my luck with Cynthia(I just really liked her music and wanted it in my jukebox) and then spark on Halloween for Roxanne.
I think all of them are out of the table unless Dena drops some big apologems.
This would've all been avoided if you could use Support candies on Steven but whats done is done
btw the moment I get a general 5star candy(18/20 atm) I am using it on Steven idc anymore

>for steven
you deserve nothing
>>
>>56384808
waifufaggoty aside, cynthia is much better than steven
>>
>>56385481
it is, but its sad to spend 80k gemmies on basically nothing lol
>>
>>56384808
>is Cynthia worth it?
Yes, she is easily the best damage dealer in the game, while packing a bunch of utility

Being able to duo Anabel is an insane feat, she has nearly 1M hp

The Arc trio ranking is Cynthia > Steven > Lance or Cynthia = Steven > Lance

>adrenaline
Isn't head start better? Since it mega evolves it counts as a second entry.
>>
>>56385451
>functional
yeah sure
>fully
no
>>
>>56385594
I guess? Though Head start alone without a way to get 2 more Sync countrdown skips achieves nothing
>>
>>56385594
uh you are right I forgot
>>56385601
you can pair him with characters with sync countdowns

His sync grid is all offense.
