Xerneas is probably the best and you replace it pretty fast with other supports.
>>
>>58228291
Sycamore & Hop are the best ones. Giovanni is good but frail, Silver is solid but you probably have better Fire options, Zinnia is cheeks, Cyrus Hydro Pump used to be insane for F2P but he’s still a decent option, Ghetsis is a great debuffer with status, & Solgaleo is fine but in a similar situation to Silver.

It was about a week ago that I realized Carmine screwed me up on Tera. Because hers was 1/1 use, I assumed for a while that ALL Tera was 1 use just like Max Moves are.

>>58228291
Agree with >>58228338 but a quick summary:
>Zamazenta boosts Atk/Def/Crit for all and has healing
>Solgaleo can ignore damage walls like Reflect or need-status passives, but is a gauge hog
>Xerneas needs to sync, but it maxes Spd/SpAtk/SpDef for all. Self heal, but outpaced by current fights now
>Palkia gets good damage with crits and secondary Water attack, but hurts self to boost
>Kyurem is a big gauge hog but can freeze all opponents while dropping speed. Can alternatively use for debuffing opponent offense
>Zinnia is hot and has big boobs. Her Rayquaza is paper.
>Ho-oh can set sun every sync. That's it, otherwise pretty useless
>Mewtwo can hit decently hard, a bit flimsy, can get rolling with SpDef down that increase damage multiplier passives

>>58228389
The problem is when they decided to stop rerunning villain arc events while replacing the old shop system with the points. While "generous" since the point system takes way less stamina it also means you have fuck all to spend it on. Villain arc events were great since you could farm 3* tickets. I guess it's supposed to be free time for new players to grind the training areas but after a certain point those are completely useless. They need to add something to slowly chip away at with your stamina like an event archive. They are never rerunning stories from years 4 and down especially the holidays unless Silver, Morty or N dev is steering the ship.
>>
>>58229439
At this point eggs are dead content. They tried doing something for like 2 months with the egg battles then completely gave up and never even reran an old one again. I still don't have all the shinies. Hell I don't even have all the 3 passive basic Pokémon for some of the newer events like Tentacool.

Anything with Gen Pool rates is an objective scam. Especially when they refuse to buff the 5 star percentages

>>58228291
I'm significantly less positive on Kyurem. Haven't used it in a while even after it got its big upgrade, but my issues are
>Glaciate doesn't do much damage
>Glaciate needs accuracy buffs to be consistent
>Glaciate eats a shitton of gauge so you need someone that can buff party Speed
>Noble Roar is wildly ineffective at this point in the game
>His Trainer Move is pretty pathetic and relies on you having taken a sizable amount of damage to get a decent boost
>He's too frail to use in any tanking role, meaning you're not going to get to use his Trainer Move until late in a battle by which point you're gonna die from all the waiting

Sycamore is still a really solid F2P support against anything that doesn't use Steel moves. His ability to heal a chunk every sync made him good for cheesing with poison in the Champion Stadium, and he maxes the party's Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and also Attack when he takes hits. Horn Leech can be a powerful full heal, especially with Grassy Terrain from someone else. You just might want to cover his missing buffs though (crit, Defense).

Hop needs to rely on some Trainer Move refreshes and he can get a lot of free moves in, he's decent at doing some damage, but I don't remember him ever being as good as Sycamore. He did take physical hits better though.

Solgaleo is gauge-heavy and there are many better Steel options. It was literally the third Steel-type pair, released on New Year's 2020 (anyone remember rolling for Cynthia to do its Legendary Event?)

Zinnia was never good from what I remember. Fifth Dragon type, but all of them mediocre even back then. She was also January 2020.

Silver has some sun support and was made to synergize with base Lyra and Ethan, but they were never good, while Silver can at least do some solid sun sync nuking.

I remember Cyrus being fine for Dragon (better than Zinnia), he did pretty heavy crit damage.

Giovanni does good Psychic damage, but is frail and needs lots of outside stat buffs.
>>
>>58230113
I have nearly 7000 3* tickets and absolutely nothing to use them on. It's actually 4* tickets that I've been low on because of
>The sheer number of basic 4* alts released
>Realizing we were never getting a separate Eggdex (wasn't this something they announced way back at the beginning?) and actually using my resources to evolve and get most of my shinies up to 5/5, 5 stars, with treats
>Exchanging 100 4* tickets every month to get 20 5* ones
On the brighter side, I capped out on 500 skill gear a couple months ago, so I don't exchange any 5* tickets for them. On the annoying side, my present box is filled with excess skill gear from events that I can't do anything about but wait a month. What a dumb oversight.
>>
>>58231191
The ticket has the entire mix banner pool minus mix units sharing 7%. You basically have a 5.2~% of not getting fucked over. Getting a general pool with those odds is the same as getting the actual featured unit in a regular spotlight banner but the complete opposite. It's excruciatingly painful especially if your other rolls are dead rolls.
>>
>>58231246
In general the item management has always been terrible. They always just fix it with a band-aid increasing the capacity slightly. Instead of just making it so you can check a box to discard extras or something. I dread the day the level up notebooks max out since they absolutely dump those on you every event and the event point system doesn't let you ignore them like the shops did. Remember when the inventory would constantly be filled with sync orbs? It probably won't be that long until you run out of units you can 70/70.
>>
>>58231258
I was bad at trying to get everyone to 750 orbs, so it would just build up. It might not have been perpetually at 99,999 otherwise. I haven't even gotten close to 999,999, but that's because it's such a hefty investment to get someone to 70/70. I've never exchanged for sync orbs at the damage challenge exchange, even though in the long run, you'll get the most out of it. Even if it takes years to get all the damage challenge pairs to 5/5, you'll get all the sync orbs and it'll take much longer to hit the inevitable point of exchanging all your tickets at the start of the month for orbs and then waiting another month to spend more.

But I haven't been doing the Battle Rally either, so that's also a loss.

>Giovanni [...] needs lots of outside stat buffs
I don't think this is a valid criticism anymore. Supports pretty much instantly max out offensive stats these days. I agree that he is very frail though.
>>
>>58232332
The only thing they did was make Pokefairs more accessible with a new Master Fair banner type. It's probably hard enough to catch up that I don't know if it's worth it or not. There's a new mode that's "generous" but mostly just whale bait.
>>
>>58233001
Mewtwo problem was always that it's frail as fuck. At lvl 140 it's HP are lower than Flannery's Torkoal or fucking Brendan and TREECKO. And it's def/spDef are lower than Roark Cranidos (not Rampardos). Even at +6 it's still frail. And thanks god we have units like NC Blue because even for a year one unit the fact it cant boost it's SpA is embarassing

>>58231230
Just cleared a rally 9th stage (no items) against Volkner and Octillery which had buffed Sp.def and a damage filter if no WTZ was active. I had the starting MC bonus but that's it, the team was Argenta, Academy Florian and Ghetsis, he really didn't eat that much gauge with his expanded grid, just spammed Glaciate with its double MGR, Tackle cheese and that's it, tanked a sync that was buffed by Tough Sync if I remember correctly, in fact Academy Florian needed Max Guard to tank a sync unlike Ghetsis, Florian damage filtering passives work only on normal attacks. Ghetsis is nothing insane beside his personality, but definitely miles ahead of Giovanni and Zinnia in terms of teammates babysitting and damage multiplier requirements. Glaciate's Cold Snap is basically Staggering but as a status rather than interference, it always leaves you a momentum to pick another actions while it triggers an AOE freeze.

SS Bede is practically required as a special Fighting type.

The main thing to do is attack in the same round as everyone else to trigger the unity gauge. Usually people bring strong enough units to carry you, but that's the main thing to help out. And other than triggering that, using supports for the people carrying you is appreciated.

Do not worry, it's unironically refreshing battling with newfags on your side.
Regardless the co-op battles are stuck in the past meta, current powercreep let's you clear most co-op with one shot NC May or two hits with other units so you cannot possibly hinder any battle.

If you are anxious about your performances you can make three teams and do solo co-op with these three teams of yours, you can pick your ideal partners and supports and give them commands if needed.

Holiday Lillie
- Sync Accel, DC Spammer, BMove hits hard ontype, Sprint/Support.
Palentine Erika
- That BMove. at 3/5 she has so many utilities, and still hits extremely hard and survive most solos in LG. She's going to be your go to damage dealer for higher floors of Grass Tower.

Summer Cynthia
- That Sinnoh Circle that gives her Take All Moves + Damage Guard. twice.
- She also has a Special Endure. Much like Volo Alt will have.
All in all, a really good tank.

TCG Ethan
If you have Arc Silver, he's going to be your damage dealer for a very long time for Fire teams. Can set a lot of suns as well.

TCG Hop
If you missed Anni 24 Lillie, he's actually very solid as a Steel-type destroyer. That said i dont know if he's kit too much. Just check his grid on pomatools.

Variety Hop / Rillaboom
He's the only physical damage dealer that can help with Adaman in Grass Tower. Good luck.

TCG Cynthia
Ghost Sheningnas? The only she needs is Ghost Rebuffs. So if you're rolling for Volo, she's a good candidate if you dont have SSR Cynthia.
If you do have NC Selene, her and TCG Cynthia's damage are off the charts.
