Mega Greninja looks TERRIBLE in battle.
So dumb, just a spinning .png
lol

Why did people expect "big new powercreep mechanic" this anni?
The last time that happened was 4-th anni - EXR
5-th and 6-th - not really. Multi-role is just a new role, not direct powercreep. And EXMFs have a better passive then MFs, thats it

SA, B-moves, rebuffs were all outside of annis
the biggest powercreep ever - EX wzt - was 5.5, a half-anni
and 6.5 had a pair individually stronger than 6.0 or 7.0 ones

It makes more sense to expect it for 7.5, could really be Arceus.
Maybe at first it will be the only one with a TM/passive that makes teammates do SE damage on off-type. And then gradually others will get that
Or it will just be the first unit with the new boost - could be 10/5 for MF/EXMF. Or something else brand new (EX rebuffs/EX circles..)

Avoid pokefairs for easier access, only shitrona here unlocks her lodge pair and the bonus items from interactions.
Focus on seasonals and varieties otherwise.
P marnie and SC Selene have Steel Wish, Marnie is a debuffer, Selene partly a team buffer, V Grimsley can contribute to the incoming High Score Damage event, F Caitlin too but she will need a powerhouse or another secondary support to carry her at 1/5 but also 3/5.
Finally Barry, he was powercrept by physical Pajama Florian and incoming V Leaf, but the event allows you to get him to 3/5 if you don't have the others and he has a good tower cookie, despite that V Noland was also enough to pass through the physical floors and reach F30, but yeah, Barry is fine.

Personally I'd grab at least a 1/5 H Jasmine because both her alt and Ampharos are very cute just to have and enjoy on the roster.

Also exchange the vouchers for the dupes accordingly on what can help you to get mode resources from Pasio Tower rather than a score higher than the base standard point rewards from the HSE.
A 3/5 usually will bring you further than 5 units at 1/5 unless they are supports which work slightly better in most of cases already at 1/5.

>hail mary multi for serena

fine then save for palkia

>>59541382
Barry, Wally, SS Diantha, and maybe Selene are the only worthwhile pairs.

Safe to say we're never getting a new Spotlight again and I should just burn the 1000 general tickets and 500 Kalos tickets I have laying around?

>half annis are not annis or something
>ex roles? merely a new role, ignore the fact you combine two of them for free sync acceleration spam, aoe sync and built in wtz extension
i'd say the latest subtle powercreeps were double or triple buddy moves on same kit and the very exploitable sync countdown built in repeat buddy moves with braindead multipliers based on sync power up next
it's easy to not notice but nowadays you get to land your first sync as soon as you entry the battlefield in some cases or after a single loop, and you can even afford syncing with strikes or techs that have built in an extra sync buff

>>59541565

>>59541565
Nah man wait another year I’m sure you’ll get one

>>59541533

>>59541526
Weren't B moves for the 3rd anni?
Ash's nuke and SST Red's locomovolt

They should have added Wattson as BP pair like Brandon

How many physical tower floors can pal Candice clear if my other limited ice units are Grusha Red Kieran and Silver

>>59541630
I can say she can get to at least floor 20 from personal experience

>>59541565
You're getting EXfair Wattson and Ryme and you will like it

>>59541600
Yes but B-Moves had their own powercreep and expansion through seasons. Meanwhile Max Moves still lack solid reworking and extra passives that affect them, you often have to spend extra grid energy and special cookies just affecting the max moves, add in how in the mainline games you could use 3 of them in a row, but I suppose this is fair since in Pokemas they all gave their power set to 400 while in mainlines it scaled.

>>59541526
>Terastallization
>Breaks

>>59541671
Technically Tera was pre anni with Carmine

>>59541677
That was entirely planned out as a lead up, story and everything. Besides, the powercreep of those units was way higher than carmine and keiran

>7 years of this fuckass game

just new mechanics/effects, not direct raw powercreep :)

Is Red w/ Articuno worth if I have Sygna Kieran?
Aura Cynthia or NC Hop who is better support?

>>59541905
At the very least I'm picking someone who's been reran recently but didn't get like NCBianca or NCElio

>>59541928
Okay but you didn't answer.

>>59541905
>Is Red w/ Articuno worth if I have Sygna Kieran?
Do you not already have Red?
The free giveaway and Kieran in particular were pretty close to each other.
>Aura Cynthia or NC Hop who is better support?
Between the two, Hop.
Cynthia's remaining claim to relevancy is a chance at applying permanent status at 3/5, and that's getting replaced by 1/5 Saturn.

>>59541905
No.

NC Hop is better when bundled with Arc Korrina since he can also attack and more rapidly drop 4 Fighting Zones.
I assume you lack Arc Korrina, which can make Aura Cynthia still sort of useful - but you really want her Lucky Candy drop from Tower

>>59541948
Thank you for the answer.
No I don't have NC Red, do I actually need him?

>>59541731
I started laughing when I saw that. It's almost incredible how poorly designed everything is.

>Why did people expect "big new powercreep mechanic" this anni?
Because they raised tower to 40 floors even though most p2w didn't even finish them all. We never had any content that a veteran spending player couldn't finish. And it's getting even more difficult. So yeah, we thought big powercreep was coming

I was half-expecting level 250

>>59542021
I don't have her, I think she's OK.
I did floor 30 with arc Korrina, 1/5 NC Hop and 10/5 SS Bede but frankly Hop was just there to extend EX zone and provide an additional sync buff. If you don't have arc Korrina he's just alright. No one else you want from that banner?

>>59542060
Who was your tank in that team, Korrina?

>>59542072
Yeah arc suit Korrina is a top tier tank, lots of heals and defense buffs.

>>59542101
I see.
>No one else you want from that banner?
Not really.
I'm currently working on poison team and waiting for anni Irida on September 20th along Sygna Roxie.

>>59542050
it'd be incredibly lazy to just increase the max level cap again and call it a day when it'd just make those that already cleared the Tower clear the next one faster without anything new. Also wouldn't sell units.

>Half anni letter
We will stop the Legendary Gauntlet to propose a new challenge soon !
>It's a rebranded Gauntlet with Rogue Mega
I can already see it. Ready for Molt... I mean Charizard Y ?

>>59542134
Also I don't have him but I'm pretty sure Kieran is just better than Hop for roughly the same role, setting zone and debuffing.
In my opinion the must have is Selene, then the pretty good ones are Elio, Kieran, Marnie, Florian, Juliana, Serena, Geeta(?), Rosa, Silver, May, the Kanto trio, Lear.

>>59542028

If you have SC Larry you probably don't need Brendan as much because he has plenty Flying Zone uses

It's a design clearly made for an environment where you'll see it from more than one angle, like in ZA, and in the space of actual old school Pokemon battles of 2/3 pokemon in a line from some high angle it looks like pure dogshit.

Use them when you're running low on 5* PUs. EX all the shitter units.

>had to go to pity for Arc Diantha
>Looking like I'll need to go to pity for Serena
Been a string of bad luck for me.
For the select scout, is Variety Lance the best choice if I probably won't have the gems to get Blue? I'm thinking about May + Kyogre for the Master Fair select because my water pairs are pretty underwhelming.

>>59543099
now you are tempting me, just 2 multis wouldn't hurt right?

>>59543128
I got her on the very last multi to pity and also got an Arven dupe. Only got a single Akari dupe in the middle of all that. At least i got Serena to 2/5.... Almost every new unit is Strike and i dont have Strike candies to do anything with.

>>59541905
I'm between 3/5 Lear or 2/5 Elio myself.

If you didn't have ANY, I think Selene is probably the best unit here.

>>59542028
There's a few "types" that are sort of shit right now. Why the hell is phys electric so shit right now? Or phys poison?

>>59543128
same, although looking back I regret pulling for Arc Diantha as I don't feel like she's a significant upgrade of my fairy team vs Gladion. She hits hard sure, but it's OK at 3/5.

Not a single Akari dupe, she's still at 4/5

New player. Kind of just trundling along the story mode so far and I've noticed I've gotten a ludicrous amount of level 4 level up items. Should I hoard these for something in particular?

It's a better evolutionary design than the original Dragonite, to be honest. Dragonite inherited nothing from its evo from Dragonair. Mega Dragonite actually inherits and incorporates the headwings and the tailbead that Dragonair was doing.

Also I'm sure as to what to use it on. I probably won't roll on Blue so I'll dump 2 of them on Lance. Last 5 will either go to SA SS Brendan or SS May. Not sure why DeNa refuses to extend SA to SC or Seasonals

>>59543264
No. You exchange them for level 5 up items

>>59543729
I'd personally go with Selene. Both hit hard, but I feel like Water will get another strong unit in the future (Ghost will probably get somethign w/ Ghost Arc too). Both are good, go with whatever girl you like

Thanks babe, happy anniversary to you too <3

>>59543729
What do you need?
My ghost pairs are pretty stacked and I have too many of them already so I don't think Selene would make a huge upgrade, meanwhile my water pairs are underwhelming.
However, if you have Arc Misty or some of the more recent water DPS pairs you'll probably find May underwhelming. Both are good but I don't think either are top of their type.

>>59543332
I looked at her in-game teams and I'm so happy we dodged another crobat

It's funny how bad the auto battle is against the rogue megas. They didn't code it to recognize the mega damage reduction so it will ignore the one that mega'd and spam attacks with the weaker units.

Who's better Aura Cynthia or NC Hop?

>>59544841
Aura Cynthia is the best fighting support (still) especially if you have her tower cookie. She's sort of mandatory for the status condition tower floors to apply paralysis. What hop does can be done better by Aura Korrina, who
1) Has Fighting Ex
2) Cute
3) Works with both sp and phys fighting teams and decreases sync move countdown with every buddy move (6 of them) you use

SA Rei/Bede, AS Korrina, and Cynthia is the best fighting team

t. cleared fighting tower 30, I'm curious as how 30+ will be

>>59544886
Floor 35 will be a Sun check and require you to have Juliana/Kiki

>>59544895

As a side note, I sort of regret rolling for and candying Juliana. Rei is significantly dmg wise. I can see them pulling that but he does so much dmg vs her.

Any contender here would be

I cleared tower 30 with 3/5 Rei, 1/5 Arc Korrina and 5/5 Aura Cynthia. She's really good indeed.

>>59544909
Poppy noooooo!

>>59544928
SA Rei is overkill but he hits like a truck. I don't have her at 5/5 but she's still a good unit, still more viable than sst red (who's basically the only halfway decent phys electric unit still)

>>59544909
Same with Red 96. I was able to solo clear all fighting floors (when I could) with my old gym with my aforementioned team. I wonder how the hoenn ones will play out and which units will be "must haves". At the very least I can expect Flannery to be weak to Water (more than the others) so NC May will probably be required along with all the other water units (Dawn, Arc Misty, ZA protag)

>>59544895
>Floor 35 will be a Sun check and require you to have Juliana/Kiki

Let's fact check that:
>Fighting Tower Floor 35 (Master)
>Rule Tower: Opponents won’t take damage from physical attacks; unaffected opponents have super serious sync moves
hm...
Sun is also not an ALLIED field effect, so it will not check 38/39

>need to wait for 2 weeks for the NC

good, more time to save.

>>59544950
Isn't "affected" just status/interference and maybe rebuff?
Why are people bringing up WTZ?
Are "super serious" syncs just multipliera triggered by not being affected with a condition?

>>59544966
>Isn't "affected" just status/interference and maybe rebuff?
It is

>Why are people bringing up WTZ?
Because of shit like
>Rule Tower: []; opponents have super serious sync moves when their target is unaffected by allied field effects
and thinking WTZ is an allied field effect
>Are "super serious" syncs
Don't know, but if you let a tower stage sync they twice they get super serious and do 3x damage, so even the first sync will hurt

Checking
>Rule Tower: [] opponents have super serious sync moves until their stats are lowered by a total of 16 ranks
sounds like the hardest condition on some types though

Dead on arrival because of AOE Sleep and Freeze being awful status to aim for in Tower and some other modes. You'll get Resilience up and just debuff while missing a proper second DPS or support for powerhouse solo DPS.

In fact you will never see Darkrai post Floor 20, honestly not even past Floor 15, not even now with EX Zones and other pairs to carry him. He is a very niche unit.

Wait it's just 3 random megas? So we got them all already? Alright who is the best you can pick out of all of them?

>>59545341
I think it's 3, but I also heard 4
Dunno where the 4th is though

>>59545341
We're getting a fourth one next week when I think people retweet something on twitter or something, can't even check now that xcancel is dead

>>59545307
It's just a field effect, it doesn't pick sides

>>59545337
That's the idea, only a few types are going to be able to do it right now.

>>59545174
To be fair, the new EX MFs might be the first time in a long time that Dragon isn't hot garbage. I skipped NY Lana, Hassel and Drayton, now I'm glad Lucas and Dawn are debuting in a new EX MF so I can form a FULL EX Masterfair dragon team with Anni Red.

>>59545328
Benga/AS Alder, H Bugsy
For earlier floors AS Alder - F Florian - Benga can do it too
For status you can replace EX zone with BP Aaron, obviously you'll want better units the further you go, I reached F30 with 1/5 H Bugsy and Benga and 5/5 AS Alder and V Noland personally, have a 1/5 AC Jasmine too (blocked only because hesitating to promote move levels) now that freshest Florian too, in the late floors you just delay the EX zone after a sync or two.

>>59545458
>they wanted to shill fucking circles through tower
vile, hope screens work too

>>59545494
And needless to say if you roll or get a ticket V L*af she will also be fine with Florian and Bugsy.

>>59545475
>only a few types are going to be able to do it right now.
in September - which types?

-Dragon? it might actually become the best type overall now (since Electric is super cucked on physical)
-Flying?. Has both phys and spe coverage
-Fire .. maybe? special Fire might actually be lacking
-Poison - idk about physical Poison, I dont think it can do 2,5-3,5M hp stages
-Water still cucked on phys
-Psychic - Sabrina is spe, but NC Hilda is phys
-Ghost - it can do some for sure, dunno if it can do all 32-40.

>>59545530
>Water still cucked on phys
Your Harmony?

>>59545530
The main problem with Fire is they don't want a Special Fire unit that's so much objectively better out the box than Sygna Red, so if they make like a third Fire Arc Suit instead of the Pikachu I'm expecting, maybe they'll fix Special Fire

Physical Poison probably will be possible with having both Base/Arc Geeta. Things will be better when they finally give EX Poison Zone to a real unit instead of Anni Irida. Arc Geeta is VERY good Support, she can make a lot of shitter units work so I imagine a real Physical Poison Unit will be unstoppable

Water just got a decent Phys Attacker but they're probably waiting on Lida to go full retard

>>59545553
base Geeta already barely did floors 27-29, I dont see what she can do as a solo phys dps for 32-39
evern with arc geeta support

>>59545551
>Harmony
>>59545553
>decent Phys Attacker
"Decent" doesnt seem to be enough for floors 32-39

32-39 has over 3 times hp/bulk as 27-29. Plus way more atk/spatk
and more passives to deal with

They need to update the passes and start giving EX role cakes. It's impossible to keep up at this point I'm swimming in yellow candies but I have a backlog 50+ pairs waiting for their EX role.

>>59545569
>"Decent" doesnt seem to be enough for floors 32-39
Players cleared to 30 with an Academy unit or a duck, a modern AoE replacement with Strike sync will do just fine.

>>59545575
Are you caking literally every shitter?

>>59545569
I did Physical Floors effortlessly with Arc Geeta + Emma. My Floor 30 was 1/5 Arc Geeta, SAed Klara and SAed Miriam. That's a bit much to expect for a new player, but these aren't meta units either. Again, a REAL Phys Poison Attacker would literally only need Arc Geeta for Support, and I guess EX Poison Zone if you're extra needy

As for Water, that's why I said they're likely waiting on Lida and Mega Starmie. Either Support or new Phys Water Strike to innately pair with Harmony. It would take them needing to tremendously fuck up the synchronization by intentionally making Starmie Psychic to "differentiate" her from Misty. Harmony already self-sets Kalos Physical Circle and has free Sync up tiles, so they gave her as many tools off the bat to be all you need. She just needs actual, real support and to at least be 3/5 like most PokeFairs

I went through all the physical floors with 3/5 Emma, Irida and Atticus. Like no thinking required, just melted everything on the first try.
10/5 Emma can do well beyond floor 30 now that Arc Geeta exists. Probably not enough for all the new floors though that shit looks gimmicky as fuck.

>>59545586
>>Are you caking literally every shitter?
Obviously I have to keep them for the pairs I need for the tower or GvG but EX role feels kind of mandatory now so it's a pity I can't use it when the game drops a weird seasonal or variety from years ago on me. They all get level 140 and some 6ex but without the EX role they're not really worth using.

>Palkia speeds up time to sync move
>Dialga manipulates space to a dragon zone
What did they mean by this?

so on Serena you use SupersonicWater Shuriken every other turn/once per sync cycle .. but its a Water move, not a Dark move?
so it wont do any damage on SE Dark stages. And also it doesnt get boosted by any Dark steroids (zone etc.)

>>59545511
Screen, Circles and MGAccel should work

>>59545799
They both do both actually
Zone on entry
-9 CD on buddy

>>59545821
>Attacks the target two to five times in a row. Never misses. Increases the user’s Physical Moves Up Next effect by one rank for each hit.
It's a buff for her actual attacks with damage attached.

>>59545821
>>59545860
My bad, Supersonic, that's after mega evolving
>Never misses. Increases the user’s Physical Moves Up Next effect by five ranks
So consistently strong

>>59545860
>It's a buff for her actual attacks with damage attached.
ok, but you need to "waste" a turn doing the water attack
rather than do Dark damage each turn

>>59545912
You can say that about every action that isn't direct damage.

>>59545912
+5 PUMN is +200% damage, to be fair.
That means the following dark attack does nearly 3x damage, nearly because iirc PUMN sum with damage passives.

>>59545057
-16 total. So that's -5/-6 on each one

>>59545338
Same but with NC Selene.

can we please skip to the NCs release, thx

>>59545553
Mega Delphox will save Special Fire, that's what I believe.
In fact, that's what I would've given Annirena.

copium, but you still can and should use Hassel on physical Dragon stages. Over AS Lance even
even with Lucas - in fact then you can have two EX zones, 1 entry, 1 manual
NY Lana though - RIP

honestly Dragon might be the best type now, they have both special and phys covered well. Might have the easiest Tower 40 clear
and Lucas + Dawn can still get another good 3-rd pair later - any EXMF special Dragon (ideally also Sinnoh) or a Dragon rebuffer/2-nd arc dragon that mogs AS Lance

>>59546320
>and Lucas + Dawn can still get another good 3-rd pair later - any EXMF special Dragon (ideally also Sinnoh) or a Dragon rebuffer/2-nd arc dragon that mogs AS Lance
Or Arceus that can set EX rebuffs of any type.

>>59546305
We got two Gloria and Cinderace, Two Red and Charizard and two Marnie and Grimmsnarl so It's gonna be the same boring pairing: Serena with Delphox (Mega) Shauna and Chesnaught (Mega) and you will have to roll for your ol' freebie Calem but with Mega Meowstic. I can even picture them doing a Variety Scout with Nessa, and double Raihan for Giga Drednaw, Sandaconda and Duraludon (if they find something to do with its Gmove)

Thinking about spending money but I don't see prices attached to anything, what's the best upcoming deal?

>>59546799
>Full region stacking 3x EXMF passives is giga powerful
So far - every EXMF has had a uniquely named EXMF passive, right? no repeats like regular MFs
anni Volo, anni Irida, NC Lucas, NC Dawn - they all have different (and stacking) EXMF passives?

>>59546824
1000 gems for 1€ is the best deal they run but it's hardly anything.
Otherwise the two passes you can buy year long are still the best value.
On September 7 there's this
>Tower Tactics Bundle
>Superawakening Candy (x3) + 12000 Gems: 48.99€ (1x)
>Strike Roll Cake (x1) + Tech Roll Cake (x1) + Support Roll Cake (x1) + Sprint Roll Cake (x1) + Field Roll Cake (x1) + 14000 Gems: 54.99€ (1x)
In gem count they don't beat the passes but the one with the 5 cakes sounds super interesting.

>>59547499
Like all Grimsleys, he is is severely weakened by the mechanic they put on him. After he megas, he wants to be at low hp otherwise he can't use his buddy move so an aoe attack will two shot since he can get endure from his tainer move. Also, his buddy move is so random in what you will get that its impossible to plan for. He is physical dark so both Giacomo and Serena are better than him.

Kinda stupid that they keep refusing to give the MC any EX upgrades. Its 2026, 7 years into the game, MC and Poipole should have had EX, literally every other free par has it, who gives a damn.

>>59548343
MC is jist there to go on dates now.

>>59548343
They'll give him a Masterfair passive, introduce units that dont get a color change after getting EX, and still wont give it to them.

With the master fair select, is there anything 'must have' pair in there that I should definitely get if I don't already have?

>>59548551
NC May, SS Lear, and NC Chicken are probably the biggest ones.

>>59549176
I have C Blue, Kantoooo starters, SS Brendan, Steven, Cynthia at 5/5 and that's a good enough portion of guaranteed megas pool, I'd rather have some seaonal and variety dupes for 3/5. All the mega units I wanted to cake were already caked and exed, grabbing x2 candies to increase the super awakening levels of the fav 5/5s at least instead of caking or 3/5 outdated or gimmick pairs, feels like a better resources investment right now.
Sadly can't exchange more SS Blue candies, last event with the Kantooo trio had a different ammount of upgrade items I believe, managed to finally 5/5 SS Red and SS Leaf from 1/5 or 2/5 to 5/5 but didn't get x4 SS Blue candies for my 5/5 SS Blue somehow, only x2. Maybe I should have saved the other candies for random dupes but it would take a lot to randomly roll Charizard and Venusaur to 5/5 to exploit those candies later.
The 3* PUs are mostly from anni tickets, got a 1/5 Nemona, 4/5 S Arezu and 2/5 SC Lyra, bad luck but not as getting only dead rolls from the pre-anni tickets giveaway.
At least A Serena came on third daily roll and Blue took something between 4 and 6 multis.
Still not enough gems for favs on variety megas banner, NCs and A Irida, amen, hope luck will assist me again.
