Eventually it'll be worth the investment, IMO, unless they messed up on its skill like they did with Snorlax's Brute Force. I haven't gotten far enough in this EB (only on like 65) to say whether or not it's worth investing 150SP into it right away, but it looks like people are recommending it. I guess if you are short on coins or are saving for Lugia/Tapu Fini with the Skill Boosters to spare, go ahead. It'll probably help in those stages too.So, in regard to Silvally, it looks like most players are already getting it to SL5 for this escalation. Do you guys think it's worth the investment? Although I have enough skill boosters to max it, I'm a bit reluctant to use such a huge amount of resources for a single Pokemon.
What Cross Attack+ user, if I may ask, and overall team? I've been running with Silvally and LDE/Optimize for damage until now, but I stopped at 140 for the EXP boosters. If 150 is possible itemless maybe I'd see if I have what I need to try it before I call it, since I got this far with no coins spent (outside T+10 when I think I got an angry at the same time as a boss stage).I've just got past stage 150 itemless exploiting Cross Attack's bug (I learned about it yesterday)!!! A very unfair way to beat a boss stage, that's for sure, but extremely satisfactory nonetheless XD
I've actually known about this exploit for a while (around the time Noivern was PSB Farmable which was when it got discovered because people were bringing Luxray to that stage because Cross Attack+ is really good) and managed to clear the whole EB itemless megaless with this tactic. I also did a lot of research on Passimian last week into how this exploit works and whatnot. If you are curious as to how it works, I can PM you a Pastebin (and I guess anyone else) detailing it and how GS can (and probably will) patch this thing. Because at this point, now that it's out there, it's going to get patched. Not a matter of if, but a matter of when now.For 150 I used Drifblim, Dusknoir, Vikavolt and Hoopa-U, but the former two are all you need to win. Basically, you must remove the central icon from the cross right after activating Cross Attack, just before the game processes the second match. This way, Cross Attack's damage multiplier gets transferred to the following match you make. Assuming that the recipient is a perfect Dusknoir, activating LDE on a mo4 you will deal 110x2x1,5x15x3x3=44550 damage, more than enough to instantly OHKO Celebi XD
Thank you, I'd appreciate it. Digging into game mechanics is always funny :)If you are curious as to how it works, I can PM you a Pastebin (and I guess anyone else) detailing it and how GS can (and probably will) patch this thing.
Out of curiosity, are you active on the shuffle subreddit? Your post looks eerily familiar to one there.I've actually known about this exploit for a while (around the time Noivern was PSB Farmable which was when it got discovered because people were bringing Luxray to that stage because Cross Attack+ is really good) and managed to clear the whole EB itemless megaless with this tactic.

Note that this actually works with all shape boost abilities and if you are planning to use this exploit, I recommend L-Boost because it's much less prone to random skyfall combos from my testing and is also much friendlier for 76-99, 100, 50, and 175.
I used the Cross Attack glitch and went itemless for most the way, but point taken. The thing is, though, that it only really seems useful in timed stages. Usually, in limited-move stages, you won't really get to combos that are too high (except in 3-Pokemon format), so you'll really only need it for expert stages and some special stages. 150 SP is way too heavy for my liking at the moment for that reason, though I may reconsider my position if we get more timed stages.I would say Silvally is worth the 150 SP. I brought mine to SL5 immediately and got to 125 in the EB itemless. I used Atk+ and 10s on 150, 175, and 200 (used a DD here too). Silvally prevents the need for C-1 if you don't plan on using Prank+ for this EB.
Yeah I am and I did make that post over there as well, yes.Out of curiosity, are you active on the shuffle subreddit? Your post looks eerily familiar to one there.
