People have noted the HP totals get absurd in the last 10 non-boss stages. Some have been using items like Attack Power+ for them, and the idea of having to use that for even 2 stages without a skip doesn't seem worth it to me with how steep the last boss stages get and the stuff to run next week like the new Safari, some PSB's of note (Ho-oh, Meloetta, maybe Hitmonlee for Shot Out), I'm stopping at 350 since I lack Dusknoir and want to put my coins towards a SL4 Regirock given how LDE snuck up on me as insanely valuable.Currently at 450 for the EB, wondering if 451-499 is easy enough to do to make 4 extra RMLs worth another max (plus jewels) run...
This EB is brutal though, SSed Dusknoir is a godsend, except at boss stages when it magically forgets how to activate LDE.
Yeah I realised how useful LDE is when I started grinding Ice Dance for Vanillish. Been wondering if steel types are worth RMLing (Jirachi and Aegislash mainly) so I could use the extra RMLs, but probably not for that price. I might go to 480~ to see if I get lucky with a +15 skip at some point lol.People have noted the HP totals get absurd in the last 10 non-boss stages.

I used Mega Diancie (level 10), Azumarill (max level, SL5), Xerneas (level 10, Po4), Togekiss (max level, SL1) and only beat it thanks to some lucky combos with 2 moves left and Risk Taker giving me high damage on the last move.So if anyone's farming Meloetta, does anyone have a team idea for it? With that rate, if I can beat it, I'd want to try and max out Nosedive while it's here. Ho-oh doesn't need much from me since I'm using it for Pyre and got that to SL3 already. Right now my plan was a couple Burst damagers like Azumarill, plus Mega Diancie. Is Meloetta itself disrupted?
I switched over to using Mega Diancie (level 10), Mewtwo (max level, Po4 SL1), Azumarill (max level, Risk Taker SL5), Meloetta (level 13, SL1) but I don't think Meloetta is necessary since it didn't actually give me any combos. Also found out my Ho-Oh is at SL1 so I have some grinding on that to do as well, though idk which skill yet.So if anyone's farming Meloetta, does anyone have a team idea for it?

Main thing I'd look at would be what mons you already have leveled. I have Emboar for a Fire type, and the other various types Fire burst helps with (Ice, Grass, Bug, Steel) I cover with Machamp or Tornadus-T when Burst is the name of the game, so I don't need Ho-oh's Nosedive urgently except for Full Pyre + Burst teams. The other Pyre options of note are Delphox and Torchic, neither of which has a PSB stage yet and Torchic taking heavy RML investment. Nosedive also takes a lot of Cookies to max out compared to Pyre, both in terms of level to reach and SB's per level, so it's a combination of laziness and reallocating my resources on my part.I switched over to using Mega Diancie (level 10), Mewtwo (max level, Po4 SL1), Azumarill (max level, Risk Taker SL5), Meloetta (level 13, SL1) but I don't think Meloetta is necessary since it didn't actually give me any combos.

I'm leaning towards Pyre as well, because of similar reasons. It's just annoying that they're giving us four coin stages all in the same week to grind PSBs in the midst of a 500-stage EB (though I have Raikou at SL3 and not planning to grind Hitmonlee). Glad that we're guaranteed one PSB from Meloetta, even though I can't beat it 100% of the time.Main thing I'd look at would be what mons you already have leveled.
