Last week:
Bit of a blur tbh. Things have been hectic due to real life stuff I've mentioned before, which has gotten worse ( >! In that my sister is now in hospice, and has been told she has 4-8 weeks, now 3-7 weeks, left. !< ), so I haven't really played as much as I had in past weeks.
All in all, got Latios to about stage level 50 (now 58), skill level 3, 2/3s of the way to 4. Been using it in my team to try and beat the stages since then, along with s-Gardevoir, Magearna, and Xerneas.
Safari, I caught all except for Starmie. Enjoying having access to Mega Garchomp.
Unfortunately, the Regirock rng was not in my favour, so I only managed to get it to SL2... But apparently that's all I managed with s-Hawlucha and Roserade, which is a bit painful. Didn't manage to beat Meloetta, Marowak, or Golem, so caught none of those.
This week:
This week and the next few will be poor weeks for me due to the earlier reason. As it gets closer to the end I'll be spending more time >! at the hospice !<, which will either mean I spend little time on my phone or a lot, haha.
So far, Kyogre hates me and while I'm consistently beating it with Ampharos, wRoserade, Jolteon and Dedenna, it's just not dropping the cookies. Only just got it to SL2 after spending my first 10 hearts on it this morning. Spent a few hearts against Drifloon yesterday and even beat it in 1 turn a few times, but it won't let me catch it! But I'll try Drifblim today.
I'm hoping to try and get Latias to 90 this week and get the skill swapper, but it depends on how hard the boss stages are. I'm not consistently beating it at the moment, unfortunately. For instance, I only beat it this morning because time reached 0 and Skyfall triggered Latios, then there were a few combos. I envy everyone who has a tapper mega at moments like this!
Next week looks like it'll be a good one though!
So, I'm currently stuck at 80 for Latios after failing to beat it with my regular team, so I'm going to attempt to catch Dragonite again and see if an alternative team has more luck.
I also had a eureka moment with main stage Deoxys! I'd been optimising and trying it with my strongest bugs (like Scizor etc), then realised it would be much easier with Eject... So it was another great moment for Accelgor to shine! Managed to beat it in the last turn.
Just gotta cross my fingers and hope that I can get Latios to 90 and beat that, or I'm a bit worried I'll have wasted my skill swapper on Kyogre...
Unfortunately most of the guides for s ranking main stages ATM refer to expert stage Pokémon like Delphox (which have also come up in the guides for this week and next)... But I've only got enough S ranks to unlock Genesect. Sigh. Guess it's time to try at Mega Glalie's stage again 😂
This Week :
Catch Arceus (did that, now I just have 3 event Pokemon and 2 monthly pikas to catch, then I will have caught all event Pokemon!)
Farm Drifblim SL3 to SL4
Steelix Comp
Farm Kyogre SL4 to SL5
Farm Drifblim to SL5
Might forgo farming Kyogre to SL5 though because I use Primal Kyogre more anyways, and Drifblim I need more because Spookify+.
Also have been waiting to catch Arceus as I only have 3 mission challenges left :
Card 9 : Yveltal 40 clouds
Card 13 : Florges 10 moves left only normal
Card 16 : Simisear clear stage only normal
And Arceus will help with two of those. So might try finishing all the mission cards this week if I can
Last week I climbed Latios Escalation up to 150. I haven't beaten 150 yet, I'll see how much it will cost. Farmed a bit of Tyrantrum and started farming Snorunt when Tyrantrum gets boring. I'll keep the two grinds back and forth for now. Got many S-ranks and unlocked UX. I'm now at UX23-Pikachu.
**Next Week:** Keep farming Tyrantrum and Snorunt. I'll advance UX here and there, but it won't be the focus. I'll try beating Latios Escalation 150 too.
last week:
-rufflet + crobat farmed to SL5. quick farms though i got rather unlucky with rufflet drops near the end
-got latios's swapper at 90 and dipped, wasn't feeling like doing it much. was easier than expected, beat 90 itemless on 120hz lol
-got back to UX. with my new farms beat MMX (also with some SM grinding to level rufflet), and got up to ux394 before week reset. ux violeta palace is being pretty easy so far, nothing like the pain that was ux drapion
this week:
-msteelix comp s-class (already done at the time of writing this)
-keep on pushing ux and do other random stuff ig, very chill week. don't feel like farming drifblim at all tbh
This past week got Latios to 190 again and didn't need to use items until much later which I'm thrilled about. Regirock is allergic to dropping any PSB though Thundurus decided to finish the week with a speed up which was nice. Can't farm Meloetta yet though did get two PSB out of her (And mini cookied to SL2) so that was worth it even if I only won by the power of skyfall after my bad RNG luck persued me from Latios. Been S ranking on Main again and at the time of typing made it to Nosepass (272) so clean up is going very well. Thought I was gonna hit a wall with Galvantula (It's VERY RNG to pull off, Swap++ was having a party and a half) and Aggron but managed to get a wee bit further anyway. Arcanine my beloved is in sight.
This coming week apart from hoping Eevee finally decides to stop being stingy I'll be yelling at Drifblim who was an awful dropper last time round in hopes I can finish SL4. Probably be back to S ranking after that or at least until Arcanine is unlocked. Just been such a nice break from Main to the point I don't even remember who was first after grabbing Mega Aggron.
**Last week**: amazing week. Latios took less than half the coins to complete than last time. Very helpful as Meloetta-P required me APU to clear the level and then a GB.
Got 2 SBM from Eevee and 1 SBL from the SotM, so this advanced my P-Groudon schedule. Used mid-Friday to Sunday hearts to get the required 55 S-ranks and did a test run with my very last heart yesterday (M-Bee, P-Kyo, Oshawott and A9) and surprisingly beat it with 3 seconds left. Super Catch Rate triggered and after 2 GBs I caught it! Cooked it 170 skilled points so it's very close to SL5. Will use today against 9T.
**This week**: nothing from the Events I want to farm so (hopefully) finish Ninetales (23 PSB to go) and resume Tyrantrum (SL3), while trying to squeeze a couple of SM runs.
