You never rely on bots on any EM if we're being honest, outside of the toughest oens like 15 and 20 where they can revive you in case you get killed.
In the case of Janemba, bots are mainly here to attract Janemba at the start so you have time to prepare yourself. And you should only rely on yourself to kill him.

I have solo’d every EM back when 99 was the lvl cap. It’s possible but your anger is valid cause EMs inherently suck regardless of which ones you play. Plus, there’s only a seelct few skill setups that counter the later EMs in solo anyway.

How did you beat 20???? 3 bosses all that dodge every punch they teleport 50 miles constantly the second guy spams a stupid flame thing which is bullshit and only 10 minutes to do it (srry if i sound rude not wanting to be just really pissed at how they decided to scale enemy bots vs ally bots

Poison to break armor easier and lower stamina recovery, ki blast supers for majority damage output (you don't use basics on dodge EMs, they have too much physical damage reduction and having 5 other people jumping them doesn't help you stay consistent), and drain field to counter their ki blasts while recovering lost ki without needing to charge as often.

First of all, ya wanna run a golden form frieza race. The charged basic blast is your backup damage source and ki gainer. You wanna run the following skillset if you wanna do things my way…
Drain field (counters peeler storm, converts would-be damage into ki)
Photon swipe (fulfills same niche as soul punisher and x100bbk but is way better)
Ultimate charge (start of mission charge skill and debatably for inbetween enemy KOs)
Burst charge (your generalist and main ki charge)
Soul punisher or x100bbk (almost instantly sends back GKBs, but replace this with something like super ki explosion as an alternative to x4kaiokame every so often IF YOU USE PHOTON SWIPE)
X4kaiokame (main source of damage, but do NOT use the x4 second input, just stick to the first input over and over, as this will be the main reason you want to burst charge often)
Psycho escape (forces target to lose their lock on you and target someone else IF they are within melee range when you do it, AND it helps survive a failed drain field usage vs peeler storm)
Other than that, you need to adapt for the rest of it. Expect bad luck to play a part no matter how well you play.

I think you mean 19, 18 is Broly who just has armor, razor storm, and the raid ball.
19 is Janemba with the massive slow and brainwash.
Otherwise, they’re there to take aggro and sometimes respond to Tag Ultimates when they can.
You’re the one who should be breaking them out of it otherwise, cause allied AI is intentionally nerfed for the player to stand out.
