I got 11 wins in Dynamax Adventure playing solo. I had gotten a higher score with other humans, so I can't post the scoreboard. But here's a pic from after I finished anyway. I don't think you'll be able to prove anything in the solo category. I fortunately happened to be taking notes at the...

I wanted to do a Ghost run with the same Shedinja as the Bug team while its usage was still fresh in my mind. What I got was nothing special compared to other scores and I didn't come up with anything new but it was a personal best for me and I'm happy with it. There's not a ton to say because...

Guess I was like an hour late to writing this. After much Scizo- I mean grinding, I'm happy with my new Bug streak. Thanks to Eisenherz for the idea to use Baton Pass on Shedinja, and sb879 for the idea to give it Hone Claws (which is a TM in Gen 6). I caught it in Gen 4 and transferred it to...

This, exactly, with Dark. Sorry this took so long, I've been putting it off because I've been grinding with a new Bug team. I did this run a while ago, and I've used the team a few more times recently in an attempt to remember what I did with it, however I struggled to get anywhere near 67 wins...

Water I gave this a lot of attempts, and it can definitely do better. My highest number of wins before my first heal is 36, but I had a hard time turning that into 90+, which was my goal (I think 100 is stretching it, but it's physically possible). Note: A slash in the sets indicate that I...

Electric: Dracozolt @ Shell Bell Ability: Hustle EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Wild Charge - Outrage - Aerial Ace - Low Kick Heliolisk @ Life Orb Ability: Dry Skin Shiny: Yes EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Thunder - Hyper Beam - Surf - Grass Knot...

I just barely made my goal! My first heal during this run was at 22 wins, so there is certainly room for improvement. But it feels rather grindy, and I'm not interested in pursuing it further at the moment. As a group, we're pretty close to having 40 wins for every type. Unless I'm mistaken...

I broke 50 with Normal Braviary (M) @ Shell Bell Ability: Defiant EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Brave Bird - Thrash - Close Combat - Shadow Claw Brave Birb is the main STAB in Dynamax, allowing it to run Adamant. Thrash is the main STAB outside Dynamax, where you usually...

Psychic is a pretty tough type in this format. I managed to get a streak I'm happy with, but there were a lot of miserable failures to get there. Gallade (M) @ Shell Bell Ability: Justified EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Low Kick - Drain Punch - Zen Headbutt -...

I didn't know that applied to self-inflicted trapping. That's pretty interesting, thanks. Maybe I'll try it out sometime when I shoot for 50 again.

Dragon: This team has so much potential, but I've had so much bad luck. I'm done with it. Dracozolt @ Shell Bell Ability: Hustle EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Wild Charge - Outrage - Aerial Ace - Low Kick Kingdra @ Assault Vest Ability: Swift Swim EVs: 252...

This team can definitely do better, as Gengar with Drapion's swap-in support is much better than it was when I tried to use it in mono-Ghost. Dark, psychic, and ghost moves all go from super effective to either not very effective, or immune. This was yet another run ended due to Boltund's...

I tackled Ghost over the last few days. At first I tried Mimikyu/Gengar/Chandelure. No good. Then I tried Mimikyu/Gengar/Aegislash. It was a little better, but I was finding Gengar would have to get really lucky to get more than 5 or so wins on its own before healing. Then Eisen suggested...

I haven't really been up to the task of writing something up, but I've been playing. Ground I'm not very happy with my ground streak but decided to move on anyway, so here's what I got: Excadrill @ Shell Bell Ability: Sand Rush EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Iron Head...

I wasn't expecting to get this high with the bugs, but it turns out there are a few bugs that can heavily utilize Dynamax. Durant @ Shell Bell Ability: Hustle EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Iron Head - X-Scissor - Rock Slide - Superpower Heracross @ Leftovers...
