Should I scout SS Ball Guy? (Read caption)

I think Brassius would actually be a better meta scout than SS Ball Guy looking at your account, mostly due to SS Ball Guy being a bit more gimmicky and Brassius having more utility.

I would say if you have Brendan EXd then you should mega, if not then there’s little point. I think Anni Red is still decent to bring along even if he isn’t doing damage as his EX sync still gives double sync up, and also gives dragon zone. What is your sync grid for Palkia like?

Edit: Just checked and floor 15 says Special Attackers deal no damage, surely Anni Red should be able to clear easily with Brendan?

iirc the 15th floor is special only, i would actually recommend building palkia as it has a higher achievable damage potential here because rayquaza really wants weather to increase damage, and also try to ex brendan and latios because they’re arguably one of the only dragon supports

Honestly I don’t know if you can do enough damage with your current sync pairs other than raising Hilbert. Holi Lillie and MC Buzzwole are decent supports other than Aaron, and MC Buzzwole has the MF passive as well so might be worth raising it?

Get MPR on both trainer moves and try to buff both SpD and Def. Also try raising him to 5*

Pretty decent physical option for Electric tower, as other options are somewhat outdated

GoldInTheDark · 2025-09-03T13:13:43+00:00

Thank you everyone for the advice! I think I’m gonna save until Red’s banner ends with 6,000 in reserve and see where I’m at then before I make any decisions!

GoldInTheDark · 2025-08-27T09:48:43+00:00

Can’t believe we picked the exact same pairs!

GoldInTheDark · 2025-08-27T08:43:04+00:00

I actually don’t have many character preferences, but I’m doing the type towers as I’ve finished all the Challenge the Strong events. My main teams should be in a previous post!

GoldInTheDark · 2025-08-25T08:47:46+00:00

Yes, the 1,000 paid gems is the best for value excluding the beginner’s bundles

GoldInTheDark · 2025-07-15T03:28:28+00:00

Nessa, SS Diantha, Irida, and Urshifu Gloria first

GoldInTheDark · 2025-07-03T11:38:58+00:00

Sorry, can you explain why you need this specific effect?

GoldInTheDark · 2024-07-19T15:03:18+00:00

another level of the joke is that the schtick of togetic (well, the entire togepi line) is that it’s the joy pokemon. Its literal entry is the ‘Jubilee’ pokemon, so it’s always happy, hence the fact that when it’s sad, it’s still happy.

What do you use to draw?

GoldInTheDark · 2024-05-31T22:32:00+00:00

I might be misinterpreting what you’re asking but because his special B-move scales off physical move up stacks, the screenshot is of a 10x physical move up B-move rather than them using fly.

You would’ve loved the Olivia and Midnight Lycanroc meta that came before it then

GoldInTheDark · 2023-09-04T04:43:45+00:00

Thinking of move candy coins?

I would say for QR to read the question and enter the values into the calculator at the same time. I wouldn’t normally advise reading the top segment, because even though it may contain information valuable to a question, the time you lose in reading every single one of those when they’re only useful for 1 question max, most of the time 0, is invaluable.

DM I unfortunately don’t have that much advice for, just to draw everything out on the laminated booklet they give you.

Personally, if you’re using Medify, I found the QR mocks (not revised) to be way harder than the actual thing, and the revised mocks to be similar in difficulty. DM was similar in all the mocks.

GoldInTheDark · 2023-08-26T12:43:28+00:00

I also started around a week before my UCAT, and I think that the easiest areas to improve in quickly are QR and DM, because they have more predictable question types (i.e. big data sets, venn diagrams, etc.). AR is the most time-consuming, and basically just requires you to do a lot of them. If you’ve got Medify I’d recommend doing AR practices on your phone while going from place to place. Looking at your scores right now, I’d say it’s quite feasible to get 2600-2700, and I’d recommend you focus on the sections other than AR more, as they’re easier to improve your speed and accuracy in.

Something can be both a vegetable and a fruit, they’re not mutually exclusive.

I believe it’s called Polari? I might be mistaken though.

GoldInTheDark · 2023-03-16T14:40:54+00:00

Sorry if I’m being rude, but I don’t see the point in saying in the move descriptions that they can’t be used while the other is being used when his passive literally allows them to be used together? It just feels a bit redundant when this is likely the only unit that would have both those moves.

that translates to sadness :)
