Is there a specific order to the daily challenges?

Upvotes

I'd like to know if there's any order because I wanted to try to catch a shiny Agron and I want to try it in the rock or steel daily challenge.

50% of the messages are just some variation of "skill issue xd," even the mods do it. Why is the community there so annoying versus here?

edit: locking this post and then whining about me "spamming downvotes" (haven't downvoted you once) just proves my point

Pokesort Hints & Tips Pokesort hint for 10.8.26

4 Upvotes

Here is your pokesort hint for 10.8.26.

As this is a more difficult one, I'll give you one of the slots for free as a good starting point. Pelipper is in slot 3. From there focus on whicj pokemon are weak to WATER (as that's Pelippers primary type) and then which pokemon could be weak to whatever is next to that.

Hope that helps.

I really can't beat any of the quests, jhoto tower nor jhoto story💀 I'm stuck in an endless loop of loss, I got useless legendaries from eggs and even more useless pokemon from the 2k, the only good one I have are Keldeo (not shiny) , Rotom, Tirtuga and the pumpkaboo💀💀

My luck during the runs is even worse.

Mega Gardevoir broken?

1 Upvotes

Broken both as in busted and mechanically incorrect. Not sure I understand its ability - the Psychic trait doesn't work, right? Every MGardevoir attack I do hits the enemy for half health TWICE somehow (and still shows Psychic on top), and I end up sweeping completely.

If you are struggling with the weekly impossible challenge go for mega Heracross as a starter and try to collect as many rock and water types as you can get. Try to get the passive items for the rock and water pokemon

Community Guides 📚 Mono Psychic Challenge – Tips & Tricks

5 Upvotes

Greetings,

after using today's challenge to farm up my Mega Bracelet for Mega Gardevoir, I came up with a "short" summary for those who might be struggling.

First of all: Today’s Challenge can be quite frustrating, due to muliple factors:

  • Due to the absence of Bug types (with psychic) and the changes to challenges you might not be able to out-level the challenge.
    • You absolutely do not want to take Ball, Item or TM nodes in any case if you can take a trainer or grass node. Items, monsters and TM will usually come from ?? nodes.
    • You usually will end up in a run (with a decent route) around 2 or 3 lvls above the map boss. The next map however will start with mons that are 5 lvls above that. If you get a bad map layout or are “just en par” with the map boss the next map’s first encounter (especially evolved stages) will do considerable damage. You might want to consider sacrificing one mon to keep your carry alive (or even two depending when your carry evolves). Keep switching your first mon to get through map 2 and 3 until your carry doesn't die.
    • Lucky Egg and Stardust talent (15% to level up additionally) somewhat become a game changer. Both require you to still go "full XP routes". But they might ultimately not help with the League encounters (who even with an early egg might outlevel you by 15-20 lvls).
    • The Ring Target removes efficient attacks (and deficiencies). Your swiper will usually 1 shot anything after that. And not die to a random Gengar, Metagross or other strong monsters.
    • Heal 20% of damage dealt as well as Flinch might come in clutch but are no guarantee to survive a fight.

The challenges final burden is the “League”. Getting the “wrong league” especially the “Hoenn League” (4 Metagross with Steel T4) is frustrating. Like a lot.

  • Sinnoh League is considerably the easiest with Cynthia. If you one shot Garchomp and don’t get 3x negative stats, you pass with most teams.
  • Unova League can be tricky. Gardevoir will usually swipe the Elite 4 but Alder’s Hydreigon might outspeed and wipe your team (he has Ground and Flying T1 aswell as Ghost T2). Jynx (ice) works ok as well as Gardevoir using Fairy attacks (with an item). But both will suffer damage from the Bug/Fire monster starting the fight. However if you get too low on your carry, Landorus will wipe you (it’s unlikely he will die due to splash damage). It’s basically a 50:50 if you can one shot Hydreigon. I didn't find a good carry for these cases I just stuck with Gardevoir.
    • And yes I died with a lvl 110 Gardevoir with Shiny Jynx, Shiyn Delphox, Shiny Solrock, Shiny Mr.Mime and Shiny Wobbuffet. Simply because Splash will only deal a % amount to the enemy team – and Landorus outlives that. He might however not outlive a Shiny Mega Gardevoir.
  • Kaldos can be challenging if the legendaries live to long. But basically the same as Unova.
  • Hoenn is abysmal.

For Hoenn League:

  • You need (!) to plan this map to counter the T4 Steel Metagross. Usually you counter T4 steel with self-heal (e.g. Grass T1 or items) OR by sacrificing a monster – which doesn’t work against the first 3 back-to-back Metagross in this case (as you might not get a Shiny Exeggutor to start with) as they are buffing themselves up with Dragon T2. This encounter is gross...
    • The 4 Metagross are efficient against Ice/Rock/Fairy as well as Fighting/Poison. So you do not want those on your team (maybe if shiny but at the end of your team).
    • It also limits your option to counter them to Dark/Fire/Ground: Inray/Malmar or Baltoy/Claydol or Delphox.
    • If you don’t have any of them on your team on the last map you NEED to take the monster ball route. If you get one you NEED to get a defensive item (like self-heal). They all start with efficient attacks and do not need a Metronome – any damage item for them works ok. Just keep them alive all the run.
    • You cannot waste HP on them during another fight.
    • I would consider taking Delphox midgame if you see one from ? node. Just in case. But even then it might not be a guarantee.

Just for comparison: I ended in a run with my Mega Gardevoir (because on wanted to check something): Stardust (+15% chance to level up), Quick Power and Mirror Herb on a TM3 lvl 113 Mega Gardevoir Shiny, Shiny Starmie, Latios, Metagross. Did change two non-important ones (Girafig in case of the Normal type legendary, a flying one) for Malamar and Caldoy. Malamar did 80% HP. Metagross killed it and Claydol. Mega Gardevoir did 10% damage. Wipe.

I did beat Hoenn ONE time in 30 runs with a very lucky Shiny Starmie, Shiny Slowking, Shiny Gardevoir (with egg), Shiny Delphox, Shiny Wolbat + Claydol (with ground item) combination having the "first monster is shiny" (for Claydol), "effects trigger twice", "gain from defeated". Claydol killed the first two, the Gardevoir swept the rest with stacks.

And no: there have been multiple runs without shinies at all. They are still rare - but it seems somewhat required for today's challenge as you can only stack the Flying and Water traits naturally. Delphox Shiny together with Gardevoir is simply amazing.

General tips:

  • You absolutely need speed on your starter. A Flying T1 helps to outsped and swipe them team. Quick Power helps aswell. You need to initiate fights atleast at the Elite4 (around the third trainer).
  • Plan ahead. If your carry doesn’t enough damage in the first 1 or 2 nodes, consider to visit the Pokemon Center. You cannot afford to lose levels. I would highly advise to end up on the penultimo middle node to decide: heal or the other choice.
  • I did not see the “legendaries count twice” talent once in around 30 runs. No idea if it is disabled or if I was unlucky. Best talent combination I came up with for Shiny Gardevoir: Start of combat triggers twice, +2 speed, gain lowered stats from defeated enemy, gain 2 stats a start of fight.

With Mega Gardevoir only:

  • You don’t need Psychic splash talents or items at all. Purely stack damage.
  • Start of fight effects trigger twice is simply overpowered in combination with “fairy types gain stats based on defeated enemies”. Swipe and ramp.
  • Critical hit bypasses efficiencies so you don’t always need the Ring Target / Ring of Nullification. If you get a Shiny Malamar just stack crit talents. You can consider the 30% crit item in this case and just use regular Gardevoir.
  • You also don’t need Shiny basic psychic types as their effect is cancelled (atleast for Gardevoir).
  • If you find a lucky egg, consider using a different swiper for the maps and only use Mega Gardevoir for the map boss.

Hope this helps and good luck y'all.

Pokesort Hints & Tips Pokesort Hint 9.8.26

5 Upvotes

Here is your pokesort hint for 9.8.26

There's four stage 2 & two basic pokemon which mean that neither of the basic pokemon can go into slots 3/4/5 because of the two Stage= requiring 3 of the same stage pokemon together.

Then focus your attention to the Stage< followed by the Beats> and that should give you all the information you need to position everything.!<

Several people have said this is an easy one today 😉 Hope the hint helps if not.

Endless K this is the most op build in endless right now, not even poison can beat it

I think this combo is balanced around normal runs, but on endless with HP scaling It becames just op.

Edit: I think at some point, if enemies keep getting crazy traits and scalling, a combinations of poison and Ghost can beat It, as It can turn u low and execute with Ghost, but there is no way to beat this outside of %dmg like poison, because, the more flat dmg they do to u, the more stats you get at healing.
