We get New Moon again during this event, with a couple days stretching over the end of the week. It'll be a nice opportunity to capture either Latias or Latios, but you also ought to make sure you have enough points piled up to make use of the event biscuits.
>BFS + HB Dratini>But literally nothing elseIt's tempting, but I feel that I know better.Aside from that, I got my first Latios on the second sleep research of the event, (2 star sleep too), so I can get 1.3x DP now.I'm already at Master 18 at GG, 3 star sleep requires Master 19 / 316.7m DP. I may be eligible for that by the end of the day.I think I'll pop a Latias incense today since I need a good Latias still.
>>59349990On the other hand, this does stack up on my Amber Canyon team pretty nicely.
>>59350032The problem is getting it to a usable level.I have one with HSM + speed nature, but a lot of time I wish it had AAB/AAC ingredient set. Even though herbs are good filler, I actually can't use everything it puts out despite it not having any ingredient bonuses.
>>59350968Yeah, the mono-herb one I have is incredible at its job, but you rarely need that many herbs now (though that could change). It's hit 60, and there's merit to getting it to 75, but it's already incredible at gathering herbs and you can't use everything it provides effectively.Filler ingredients are not good for strength, berries are more important.Considering Latias and Latios work best with BFS dragon team members, it would be a worthwhile long term investment.Specifically Latias because of bonus helpings, that scales with BFS whereas Latios' berry burst does not.Plus corn is way more useful than herbs, and whilst I do have my mono-corn BFS Bewear already, more options are good.
Welp accidentally sent away my bfs hsm shiny dratini, anyone wanna tell me that’s actually not that bad
>>59352072I don't see how that happens accidentally. There are automatic fail-safes in place for shinies and legendaries.
is this where i use my mint?
>>59352650if youre fine with waiting til 75 to see really great performance, yes
>>59352408I wasn’t paying attention when I was cleaning my box
Latias and Latios have the same requirements, so what's important to look at is the Drowsy Power (rather than tier). On standard islands, 3.2m Snorlax Power should allow you to see a 3* style; about 3m if you decide to run a Latias/Latios in your party and only about 2.5m if you can include both.
i a good latias even good?
>>59353656Evaluating Latias as a healer, it can be a very good job of it and approach E4E healer efficacy, but not meet it.Latias has been identified to reliably heal the two lowest energy Pokémon on your team, compared to regular Energizing Cheer users that can choose to heal someone at high or max energy. Latias can also heal itself, so this altogether is super reliable.The other part is the additional helps it gets from the two Pokémon.With skill level 6, each healed Pokémon also gathers 4 additional helps (8 total for two Pokémon), but this increases to 7 helps if Latios is on your team. It isn't the most significant impact.Latias is good if you can somehow find a god roll AND power it up, which is way harder than the majority of E4E healers.Latios' main skill has a more meaningful impact when Latias is added, giving +10 to the self-berries Draco Meteor (Berry Burst) gathers.To achieve that same +10 effect requires having a full team of dragons (excluding Latias) otherwise.Pulling off a full dragon team that includes Latias and Latios can be monstrously strong.
>>59353656>>59353743For comparison, if we substitute Latias for Shuckle on this Amber Canyon team, there's big strength drops across the board, but especially for Latios and the healer slot.Everyone's energy is higher on average, but not by a big amount.Incidentally, due to how Heal Pulse always goes for the least energetic helpers, Dragonite will get less frequent support due to how it heals itself with Charge Energy S. Moreso if its main skill happens to be higher level.
>>59352650IMO Berry Burst Pokemon don't even want BFS, or at least not at vs HSM or STM. They're some of the strongest Pokemon, but require a lot of resources to utilize, so I don't think I'd take anything less than BFS + HSM/STM + good nature. If IFS was swapped with one of the other two skills, it might have been OK.>>59353743>>59353751Keep in mind event boosts are active on raenon, so these values are inflated with extra skill triggers and ingredient pickups. Not to say that full Dragon isn't the way to go anyways. But yeah, Latias isn't too impressive by itself, but it's still a key part of the overall goal.
>>59354422Oops.Sorry, I don't think they want HB. They definitely want BFS.
>>59354422>Keep in mind event boosts are active on raenonAh fuck, I always forget about that.Fucking sucks for when you want to evaluate a baseline performance.
I guess I can run it for the DP boost...Ate up 3 special biscuits, my daily, and a couple Great Biscuits, with a crit one a smaller one, but managed it all in one go.Since the Biscuits are shared between the two, I feel like points are going to hurt more than usual. And dragons being a bit rare to spawn, I'm not getting quite as many material bonuses so far either.
>>59354907Yeah, I hate it too. I would tell you to use Nerolislab in these cases, but they are fucking slow at adding new mons, so they still don't have Latios on the calculator.
It's a bit odd, but Latias is the only legendary so far that doesn't actually care about its team aside from Latios. So you can use it by itself without losing that much efficacy, but its power also peaks pretty low in comparison to the others.
>3k short of the global tier 5 rewardThey wouldn't actually end the event without unlocking all 15 tiers, would they?
>>59356906Only half of it is unlocked for the first week. The other levels unlock for the second. It's all cumulative anyways, so your points will get added to next week's extra big starting Snorlax, along with everyone else's. I'm pretty sure the final tier rewards are pretty inconsequential if you're too early in the game to progress that far too.
>>59356906The event ranks are individual, not global.The global part is the global average Drowsy Power adding to your own nightly DP.My personal DP this week has been roughly double the global average, one night actually being more than double.I've already exceeded rank 8 as of Saturday morning, which required a total cumulative DP of 2.4 billion.So last time this event format was used, the milestone rank of dispelling the darkness gave you Darkrai as a reward.The rank 13 reward available next week, that dispels the bad weather should be "the power of the bond between Latias and Latios", and hinted in the event's news artlcle.>And…it seems Latias and Latios haven’t unlocked their true power yet.>If you make good progress during the event, there might be a chance to unlock the power of the bond between the two.>We hope you’re looking forward to this!Which implies an even stronger bonus or main skill effect when running Latias and/or Latios on your team.Anyway, since maximising DP is the goal of the event, don't forget to sleep with Latias and/or Latios on your team, both if possible.
>>59357878Specifically, the rank 13 details have already been datamined, and it's introducing our very first 5* sleep into the game.After reaching rank 13, on your next session, you will have a guaranteed Latios spawn in with its new 5* empathy sleep, which will also reward 80 down. It's unknown if the main skill bonuses for latias/Latios are tied to seeing this sleep style or not, or if there is some other unlock method.
I feel that this is as good as I'm going to get for a Latios. My other one is nearly identical, but with sleep exp bonus instead of skill trigger and more tomatoes at lv30, it even has the same nature.
>>59358992Everyone's first legendary of each species has the same skills and nature. Skill Up S, Sleep EXP, Inventory L, Helping S and Skill S I think. And you still have a whole nother week to reliably capture more anyways.To get one worth spending resources on, I'd think you want at the bare minimum, at least 1 skill boost and/or 1 speed boost, either M skills or nature. BFS helps too, but it doesn't actually affect Latios's overall totals as much as other legendaries.
>>59358799That's fascinating that we're getting 5* sleep at long last, but also concerning that the requirement for it is participating in an event.I'd assume the sleep style is discoverable post-event somehow, but the fact you get a guaranteed Latios spawn is very nice, that'll save on an incense.It may count as a "special appearance rate", so it would be in addition to your 8 spawns, incense spawn, and GCT spawn (like on New Moon days).That said, if you were to somehow reach rank 13 on Sunday morning, which is a New Moon event day, I wonder how the game will handle that. I guess it forces the 11th special appearance rate slot to be 100% Latios only?If you continue that line of thought, it makes me wonder if 5* sleep styles might be New Moon exclusive going forward as a catch-up mechanic, in the same way you can still befriend Mew and Darkrai after their respective events.
Still can't decide if I just stay on Amber or try to go to Expert with all of the great Dragon-type boosts.I already have Latios's 3* style, so that's not so big of an issue. Next week, we also start with a flat boost, plus a 1.5x multiplier on Sunday. I do think my event materials from research will suffer somewhat, but my Snorlax Power should still end up stronger than a standard island. It WAS disappointing when I did it during Latias's event, but I didn't have particularly strong skill types to take advantage of those events' bonuses either. At least this time I'll have an (almost) entire team that's guaranteed to be boosted.
I am pleased to announce that my 10 week dry spell has ended
>>59360607With how easy it's been to run a legendary incense each day this week, I'm inclined to stick to Greengrass where it's easiest to raise my DP and just focus all my biscuits into the legendary spawns.Having two targets to chase makes things difficult trying to befriend both, dragon biscuits are expensive and eating up my latios down samples.
So i had forgotten to put my watch on last night, but i woke up to put it back on early morning and went back to sleep for about 3 hours. My Garmin watch and my Health Connect both say i got 2+ hours of sleep in that period, but the game isn't finding sleep data. I've resynced and checked the settings on both apps, but the game is still refusing to take it. Any help?
Honestly I shouldn't really have tried to catch any Latias at all this time around. Latios is the much bigger player of the two, so now I basically just used resources that could have been another Latios.
