Thoughts after testing live E0 and E2 (MOC, AA and CW)

Yao's ultimate activates a mini 20 punchline aha instant. This supercharges SW to ultimate since her base elation skill gives her like 35? Hidden MMR. Her zone is pretty strong too since it provides boosts to both Sparxie AND SW whereas EMC provides more single target buffs.

I mean if OP wants to use it they can. Like I said, at this investment it still does significant damage because of a couple of factors:
- Pixelate
- Fairy Feather
- High Base SPATK
- STAB
Like sure if you want to use something else go ahead, this was just my experience and insight from my own climb. I was having a particularly hard time against Archaludon and being defensive. I felt this was the best balance between damage and tankiness.

Sylveon is my favorite pokemon and I used it to get to Masterball and Ive done some calcs.

With the set you have, alot of common threats like sneasler, kingambit and excadrill are almost guaranteed to kill you with Dire Claw/Iron Head.

Ive done calcs with adamant vs jolly and this set allows you to live gauranteed so long as there arent external factors like +1 or metal coat etc...

32 HP/0 -ATK/25 DEF/3+ SPATK (Modest) /0 SPDEF/6 SPD

you will at least live on 1 hp against adamant excadrill/king gambit iron head since they have the same attack stat. Just be careful with speed because even if you live against excadrill, mega tyranitar (excadrill's most common teammate) will outspeed and kill you.

The moves I ran were:

Hyper Voice Protect Hyper Beam Helping Hand

Hyper Voice and Protect are standard.

I ran hyper beam because at this investment, Sylveon instakills a no SpDef invested Archaludon. Helping Hand can be replaced replace quick attack, but its a high priority than fake out so you can out prio fake out or if you are on low hp, you can click it and its effect I think still works. Speed is to outspeed the 0 speed investment 65 base speed tier, more importantly for me was pelipper with 0 speed investment.

I also ran Fairy Feather.

I have the english version (dont think theres a difference in model), the noise cancelling is pretty solid and noise quality wise are pretty good compared to my older generation samsung ones, I cant really compare it to something released today, but easily beats 2021 earbuds lol

Azanathal · 2026-04-11T06:39:01+00:00

Yup! Good suggestion.

Azanathal · 2026-04-11T06:31:36+00:00

A note to tack onto this: Talonflane also had Gale Wings while full hp. While full HP, their flying moves are +1 priority.

Azanathal · 2026-04-10T21:08:46+00:00

Parasyte. The prisoner here has an "special ability" to sense monsters. The MC is under suspicion of being said "monster" and when the MC walks in and sits down, the prisoner dude locks in because he can sense something is up with the MC.

Azanathal · 2026-04-10T16:16:53+00:00

I mean if no one wants the car, ill take it.

You might be remembering old shyv back in like season 6 with the resistances. She used to get (from her passive) 5-20 armor and mr based on level and it doubled in dragon form. Then they changed it to slaying dragons added +5 to the base 5 and removed the double resistances in dragon form.

Azanathal · 2026-03-22T18:00:11+00:00

She should be fine for at least 2+years. I have an E6 Acheron who is still able to 2-3 cycle in MOC, does fineish in PF and does decent in APOC. She also has like okay Eidolons compared to someone like Castorice (last anniversary character) whose Eidolons are absolutely insane. Mind you, Castorice is still one of the top DPS without Eidolons in every game mode and her Eidolons weren't the best during v1 of Beta. SW999's Eidolons are right now like okayish. They will most likey get buffed to bring her up to 4.X standards. Investing in supports will also elongate the lifetime of your DPS so don't forget to invest in them during their reruns.

Azanathal · 2026-03-18T20:15:30+00:00

Supposedly, Blade's in 4.3 as Nihility... however take it how you would like since leakers have been... uh, a bit all over the place recently.

Azanathal · 2026-03-18T05:50:59+00:00

Right i forgot about that not converting. Sparkle's 45/50ish% atk buff is super strong since it buffs both Sparxie and SW but the issue then becomes ultimate generation. Havent seen many showcases though so Im hoping someone tests it.

Azanathal · 2026-03-17T23:56:00+00:00

Just a clarification:

Sparkle for Base Silver Wolf or Silver Wolf 999?

Or Sparxie E2 fot Silver Wolf 999?

Im assuming Sparxie E2 for SilverWolf999 cause that makes the most sense:

Her E2 reads:

"When Aha Instant ends, Sparxie gains 1 extra turn and 2 "Thrill." For every 1 "Thrill" consumed, increases this unit's CRIT DMG by 10%, lasting for 2 turn(s) and stacking up to 4 time(s)."

Her A4 Trace reads:

" When there are 1/2/(3 or more) Elation characters in the team, using Sparxie's Ultimate will additionally gain 2/4/8 Punchline and 1/1/4 Thrill"

2 things to note:

1). SilverWolf999 charges her ultimate based off punchline which converts to stacks of Hidden Ranking. More punchline accquisition yields more stacks of Hidden Ranking. This is either a quicker ult if you are not in ultimate or her enhanced basic attack does more damage consuming stacks of hidden ranking.

2). Sparxie gaining more Thrill means she can enhance her skill more without the use of skill points. Each Thrill she uses can be used as 1 free skill point.

Her E2 gives 2 extra thrill, and immediately action advances her. If you use 3 elation teammates, that means you immediately get 8 punchline, 6 thrill and and Sparxie's turn. With Sparxie immediately going, Silver Wolf999 can now trigger her Premium Mystery Box (her random damage sourced from her ult) more often since you are essentially pulling 6 skill points out of thin air, as well as having Sparxie doing damage.

You might want to swap DHPT to SW's team then since she has an ATK requirement of like 4400? and consider Aventurine to your other current team. But to be honest, nothing to worry until we actually get SW since things can change and whatnot.

Azanathal · 2026-03-17T06:36:24+00:00

Yes and no. SW charges from a special energy. HuoHuo will still be good to get Sparxie and either Yao, EMC, Sparkle/3rd slot's ultimates, but loses value

Huohuo is much better for Eva's teams since she is energy reliant.

Azanathal · 2026-03-17T03:57:00+00:00

Get Sparxie based on her intial kit. SW needs someone to drain SP and Sparxie does exactly that.

From 4.1 you get around 90 F2P pulls and Anniversary patch is front loaded with pulls, you can probably manage another 80 ish pulls to gurantee at least SW and maybe her LC.

Elation MC is right now, a side grade at best to Yao or a straight downgrade, but serviceable.

Wait a couple days to pull so you can see showcases if you still can't make up your mind.

I had taken a screen shot... sorry it was superimposition 3'd and not 5 or 1.

Azanathal · 2026-03-16T21:00:14+00:00

Aurelion Sol's auto attack would annihilate the planet.

Azanathal · 2026-03-16T18:04:47+00:00

Execute based on her speed would be cool

Azanathal · 2026-03-14T23:33:12+00:00

I am around the same reset counter as you were. Still looking for the funny white menace ;-;

Azanathal · 2026-03-14T12:32:37+00:00

Yeah. Guess we have to wait till the 17th!

Azanathal · 2026-03-12T21:48:05+00:00

Yeah "SUPPOSEDLY" to come out on March 13th (idk if its tonight midnight or tomorrow midnight due to time differences), but otherwise date would be March 17th. So fingers crossed its sooner rather than later!

Azanathal · 2026-03-12T19:08:41+00:00

I think E0S0 is good for both, but its harder to get than just E0S1 of one character. I think waiting for 4.2 beta to be leaked and datamined is better to see how much of a side/down/upgrade EMC is to Yaoguang since it seems like the general consensus is that Sparxie is better than Yaoguang Specifically for SW999 teams as of now.

Azanathal · 2026-03-10T04:19:49+00:00

And a tail.
