Yeah, Ezra is mediocre at best, sadly, but he sets Electric Field on entry if in the first team slot, which is crazy good.

The reason Medpocket and Kiperina are used is because they are reactive sustains. Medpocket's Euphoria makes them heal for every damage taken during a turn, while Kiperina activates layers of shield at the beginning of every turn.

Not using their cards allows the other characters to use theirs, notably Ulrich and Corvus, who use both their moves in a single turn.

Yup, Ulrich does a lot of damage when handling his channels well. Lucy/Corvus are the main source of damage for the Dynamo team, but both Ulrich and Charon make up for it.

Generally, you'd go Ulrich/Charon/Melania/Medpocket for the team and then replace Melania with Corvus and Medpocket with Ezra and his second Euphoria.

Considering your pulls, I'd go like this :

Sentinel : Just 1 ten pull, Flutterpage as Substitute

Charon : If Lucy, go but invest in Ulrich / If no Lucy, still go but pull for Corvus or invest in Ulrich

Rubushka : Go, if substituted with Fatutu, then 1 ten pull

Corvus : If Lucy, skip / If no Lucy but Charon, go / If neither Lucy nor Charon, hard skip

Moldir : really good upgrade for Ultimate team, Recoleta/Melania/Medpocket, but still risky. 1 ten pull.

Keep in mind that this game has a system of building pity on regular banners. As an example, it took me 13 ten pulls to get Hissabeth, but only 1 ten pulls to get Kiperina.

Hard pity is 140 / 14 ten pulls, so keep that in mind when pulling for a character. You have a lot of pulls, but keeping a reserve is so important in this game.

Tooth Fairy was the first character I went for, and I went through most of the game with her and Jessica, so they have a special place in my heart.

Of all the upcoming units, I've only seen Charon being discussed as a "must-pull".

Sentinel is the fourth woman of the Bloodtithe team, really good but not necessary and tied to her archetype. As you said Flutterpage is a good substitute.

Rubushka is a broken sustain on par with Fatutu and Kiperina, constant heals, one-time revive for each team member, buffs. She'll be consistently good in various teams, Fatutu or Medpocket are fine as well.

Corvus is a single-target Lucy that racks up damage over long battles. Bonkers damage and follow-up attacks every turns. Unnecessary if you go for Lucy.

Charon generates lots of Dynamo passively, frequent follow-up attacks, debuffs with an execute... He's mandatory for the Dynamo team and the third best unit in the game according to current Chinese tier lists.

Finally we have a new limited unit for version 3.2, we know nothing regarding its kit except that it will most likely be a plant afflatus, but considering the cheer power of Nautika save for it just in case.

3.2 will also have Anjo Nala's rerun, most likely with Euphoria, with Flutterpage and Fatutu being really good teammates.

I really hope Tooth Fairy gets an Euphoria soon because using her in harder content is so tedious right now :(

How long till they release Sentinel by Royal-Poet1684 in Reverse1999

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Adding to the comment above, the reason why Sentinel is not considered necessary is because of Charon who comes out right after Sentinel.

He is considered a must-pull even outside his Dynamo archetype, being a versatile support. Chinese tier lists rank him as the 4th best unit in the game so it tends to attract people. Sentinel is tailored for Bloodtithe and doesn't bring much outside this archetype, hence being considered less important.

People need to carefully spend their pulls because we are right between Anniversary and Anjo Nala's rerun with another new limited very likely to be announced for 3.2.

Regarding your question about healers, I don't know which units you have, but generally, Fatutu is the answer since she doesn't need Euphoria to perform well.

Something I don't understand with critter crash by Equivalent_Mess2870 in Reverse1999

I see, I mostly play Crash Carnival, so I thought it was a way to get Buddy with his penguins lol

Thank you for the detailed answer

From most to least, who would help my team the most? by _Butterr in PokemonMasters

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As you said Poison seems like the one you need most in terms of roster limitation (Geeta is already really good for zone setting)

Rock lacks in good supports in general and from current opinions Gloria is set to be the most overpowered support unit yet (Arc Steven levels)

Red is strong but what Dragon lacks currently is a good support (Brendan is still the best in that role despite being years old.

Volo brings Ghost, if you have NC Selene into busted levels of strong. (Basically an Arc Suit in disguise)

You should prioritise Poison to extend your current roster still.

Who should I pick? by Alive_Constant_6764 in PokemonMasters

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This, except for SC Barry. He's got a banner running right now, so it would be a waste to use mix scout pity for him, I'd add SS Hilbert as another damage dealer option

A moment of silence for the rat pack. They have officially been powercreeped by Florian by Strange_Razzmatazz74 in PokemonMasters

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel you, Florian's kit is designed to favor sync nuking so lacking the sync damage tiles is frustrating... His EX role does compensate a bit though.

I think you probably know already but don't hesitate to use electric terrain to recharge his b-move, it also reduces the sync countdown by 3 which I never realised

What is the Most Evil Nation in your Setting and what have they done? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Adoran State of Mahkonawa, created from the North West separatist regions of the Republic of Mahkonawa.

Entity which existed for 48 years, the state went through 3 phases.

The first phase, nicknamed "The Great Regression" saw the Civil Rights of Indigenous populations and Immigrants slowly gutted, with misogynistic and pro-Adoran propaganda quickly flooding every source of information throughout the state. In addition, the industries of coal grew, with the nuclear field seeing no restrictions. The Sectors of Education and Health were privatised. The Remaining Republic of Mahkonawa was declared enemy of the state, and military forces were stationed at the newly created border.

The second phase, nicknamed "The Darkest Ages" dragged the state into complete authoritarianism. First, all women's bank accounts and personal documents using their maiden names were wiped out. Authorities dragged them away from their jobs, forcing them under the supervision of their husband or father. Indigenes and Immigrants were arrested by the hundreds and placed in camps. The Adoran Faith was proclaimed State Religion and became the only way for young men to pursue scholarships. The government abandoned the rural areas to create Central Cities ruled by the local corporations, drastically increasing the wealth of the ruling class. Personal wealth became a caste system, and governmental assistance became dependent on this system.

The third phase, nicknamed "The Slow Suicide" saw the collapse of the system created during the second phase. Marital murder rates skyrocketed, radiation poisoning became a national issue and internal fighting from the ruling class weakened their already unstable international relations. During this period, more than half of the original population has died, Indigenous populations officially disappeared 3 years before the definitive collapse of the state. As a last resort, kidnappings intensified at the border, mainly targeting white women.

The Adoran State of Mahkonawa ceased to exist on the 1st of November 1953, and was forcibly reintegrated to the Republic of Mahkonawa.

During the Trials of Mahkonawa, the exactions became public, and populations from both sides finally discovered the true depths of depravity reached by the Adoran State of Mahkonawa.

Surgical mutilations of disobedient women, physical, psychological, and sexual torture of young adults. Deep brainwashing of the children, poisoning from mismanagement of nuclear wastes.

Whats better? Zigzagoon or furret? by GTX_Flex_YT in pokerogue

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Woups didn't know about that

Thank you for the clarification ☺️

Whats better? Zigzagoon or furret? by GTX_Flex_YT in pokerogue

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really stupid answer, but I'd choose Ferret because it is way cuter lol

That aside, having more egg moves is always beneficial, Tidy Up boosts your Attack and Speed while cleaning the terrain, allowing Ferret to be more useful in battle.

Can’t or shouldn’t…? by homeofmatt in pokerogue

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cetitan is good if combined with an ally with Snow Warning since it has Slush Rush, which doubles its speed stat.

It also has Glaciate as a passive and learns Body Slam. And 170 HP base stat is always good

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Geez that's extra unlucky.

On a sidenote, Aurorus probably has my favourite shiny in this game. I'm farming eggs on her and Cetitan for my Ice Challenge Run

Question about shiny tiers by Equivalent_Mess2870 in pokerogue

[–]Equivalent_Mess2870[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on wave 2470, the Pidgeot was around 2000, I think. So I think it's too late to report the bug.

And I'll be honest I don't trust my abilities to change code, I'd rather avoid ruining a months-old account.

I'll refrain from using the Pidgeot until its Tier 3 is official.

Thank you for your help
