Pokémon Masters EX Damage Challenge Rock 3/5 Selene 3/5 Perrin 11.4M!

I had been doing basically the exact same run on this stage since Perrin came out just over a year ago, and today when going through the run I noticed that I could actually improve it quite a bit! I had to give Selene adrenaline, and improved it to 10.9M at level 180. I definitely wasn’t expecting that much improvement from my previous 8.2M run! Since Selene is a favorite I figured I might as well level 200 her and share this, since those with higher invested Selene can benefit as well! I’m hoping to get Selene to 5/5 via the sync orb bundle pass selects, so next round hopefully I can hit a little more here! One strange occurrence I can’t explain, when I did this run before recording the left side always used dazzling gleam at the end so the last B always had double break. Because this run isn’t meta I don’t want to keep running it, but it’s for sure possible for the final B to be on double break, not sure why that changed, but easily fixed by leading with break left since left never acts. So this run should be more like 11.7-11.8, but of course rolls are all over the place and sometimes Perrin gets extra defense drops as well, which this run benefitted from some, so no guarantee that if I run it again I even score higher anyway! Someone with 10/5 Selene could still run SP3 since she gets -1 on her sync, however since she debuts circle, which wastes time, you would have to eliminate one further action, probably just the final Perrin TM so the last B wouldn’t be SEUN, which would reduce the RNG, not require slow mode, but also lose a lot of damage. Other options would be HS for Perrin and drop one acid, but that also reduces damage. Maybe on full slow mode you could still do the same run, but my guess would be there isn’t enough time with that debut circle. The video lost about .5 seconds bc mid target had special defense dropped on Perrin’s B when it was already minimized, which does get stuck and waste time, so a tiny bit more time could be saved. Either way 10/5 would ramp the score a lot! 10/5 maybe looking at 15-16M or so would be my guess. I’m really surprised this is top 100, but should fall out as more people do the stage. Still cool to see Selene even in the vicinity of the newer meta pairs. I remember a long time ago I got to 9th with Selene at 3/5 (pre Perrin, but post super awakening) it’s always been a bit of strange stage, maybe no one is as into optimizing rock as other types! Crazy to think I could have done this exact same run a year ago when it would have ranked pretty well, but it’s a good reminder that even when we think we’ve figured out a stage that there may be a better way to do it! These gears are just decent, 17% sync for Selene (and Gloria I guess hitting almost 90K there lol) and 2% moves for both Selene and Perrin, 80 special attack and 60 attack.
