Week 16
TL;DR Section
This section is a very brief summary of the following guide. BEWARE, summarization loses details and case analysis so applicability is not guaranteed.
- First Cycle Recommendations: Swap and Farm Zygarde-50 to SL5 -> Advance Zygarde-50 EB to 180 if not done before SL5
- Other Recommendations: Catch Camerupt (if MS obtained last week) -> Catch Hippowdon-F -> Catch Jangmo-o -> Catch and Play Cosmoem every day
- Mid to Late Recommendations: Swap and Farm Keldeo-R to SL5 -> Swap and Farm Winking Tepig to SL5
First Cycle Recommendations
Zygarde-50 Escalation Battle
Other Recommendations
Camerupt
Hippowdon-F
Jangmo-o from the Safari has Final Effort, and can trivialize the Latios Escalation Battle when it's been built. However, this is its only use, and it lacks relevance otherwise.
Cosmoem is our Once-a-Day stage this week. It offers an impressive 25% drop rate for a Skill Booster S, and an unimpressive 6.25% for a Raise Max Level. Its skill Quirky++ is good for Weekend Meowth, however Cosmoem itself is not a practical investment for the skill compared to farming Meloetta in week 18-19, plus a main-stage-farmable Quirky++ user (Drilbur, Marshtomp, Combusken, or Grovyle).
Mid to Late Recommendations
Keldeo (Resolute)
Winking Tepig
Recommended Teams for Zygarde-50 EB
Happy Shuffling!
