Fastest way to steamroll team leaders?

Given that it's one of our daily chores I'm interested to see what the best strategies to deal with the masters team leader teams.

First off, who is the easiest trainer? I'm inclined to say Candela, then Blanche and finally Spark.

If facing Candela my strategy was to use either Latios (resists all moves from all 3 pokemon and has DBDC) or Kyogre (WF will take care of infernape, HP will take care of Electivire and WF will take care of Moltres)

I haven't clocked either of these strategies yet. Also have to take into account the randomness of enemy moves activation, but I suppose that can be taken out of the equation with some manual adjustments to the time.

MS/SE Rhyperior against Candela. He should survive even if infernape has RS.

Candela is the easiest. I use my L32 Latios (DB/DC) which resist anything Candela throws at me. None of Candela’s mon is able to fire a charge attack. Took me around 60 seconds to complete including all the lobbying and animation.

Spark, in my opinion, is next easiest. His lineup only got Milotic that is tanky and provide counter coverage to Ground.

Blanche is the most difficult among the 3. Lapras is tanky and Glissor partially cover the Electric weakness of both Lapras and Articuno. Both Lapras and Articuno lean towards the defensive side.

Just use a smackdown stone edge ttar against spark in master league. Spam quick moves for the magnetric (shield his charge attack then finish him without using a charge move on it), then open with a stone edge against the milotic and then again finish it with your smack down and save your chage move for the zapdos and you'll be good. Depending on your ttar's level, mine only requires me doing the 2 charge moves to sweep his team.

I use a max Kyogre to beat Masters Candela, a hydropump gets most of the Electivire eliminated, just fast moves on the other two. ***Sometimes (rarely) a wild charge can sneak in and beat the Kyogre, a few seconds slower is MS/EQ Groudon to beat first two, then fast move Kyogre on Moltres.

I use a maxed Gyarados with WF/HP+Cr against Candela and have never faced a WC from Electivire (my HP is too quick). A single Cr (once charged up) saves time against Moltres.

How does Candela manage to ever fire off a charge move on you? And even if she does, why don't you just shield it to finish her off as quick as possible?

With a maxed Kyogre it shouldn't if you're smart about it. It's what I use anyway:

- Waterfall takes out Infernape
- A few Waterfall against Electivire finish charging Hydro Pump, which I'm 100% of the time able to fire off before it uses a charge move
- Waterfall takes out Moltres

She should never get the opportunity to use a charge move against a maxed Kyogre. A few Waterfall and one Hydro Pump handles Electivire before you'd need to shield.

I sometimes do the trainers battles with 2 phones at the same time. Maybe I don’t tap enough on the charge move/lag

I've been using Dragonite T/C+O against Candela:
Use Dragon Tail and one Dragon Claw against Infernape, then use Dragon Tail to finish it (maybe one shield if it has Flamethrower). Use a few Dragon Tails to finish charging, then one Outrage completely wipes out Electivire. Use Dragon Tail, then one Outrage to beat Moltres. (Electivire and Moltres never get off a charge attack.)

10 cp Pokémon and you can finish in under 30 seconds.

I do that every day. I get the same rewards (maybe even better) than I would if I was actually trying.

If you are trying to complete it quickly, why try and win?

It doesn’t progress the medal, but it is the fastest way to get rewards.

Some people already have the medal, so I was focusing on the original question.

Kyogre on Candela is my choice.
Dbl rock TTar works ok for Spark...but Candela is the fastest I have found to work for me, and I have stuck to that for a while now

Gyarados against Candela's master team works great. Waterfall takes out infernape before he can get a charged attack off, then almost immediately Hydro Pump Electavire, who goes down to that, and then Moltres is cake. I don't even use my PvP Gyarados, I use an old raid one (PvP Gary has Outrage and Crunch, for better speed). At the end of the fight, I've used no shields, and Gary is barely into the yellow. Easy peasy.

Razor leaf meganium v great league blanche... just tap the screen absentmindedly and you win in under 30 seconds

I steamroll all with lv40 Machamp. Dynamic Punch demolishes first two mons and Rock Slide kills legendary birds with one shot. Only Blanche forces me to use shields most of the time.

Razor Leaf Roselia/Roserade with 15 atk IV and low other stats against great league Blanche is the fastest I've heard of, but obviously you miss out on some dust for the daily reward.

I've never actually fought the leaders in ultra and masters, doesn't seem interesting.

I use a L40 Mewtwo with Shadow Ball + Thunderbolt, and the pattern is always the same and taking like 1 minute:

- Infernape: Charge until Shadow Ball and it's over.
- Electivire: Charge until Shadow Ball and finish it off with a few fast moves to charge it again.
- Moltres: Fire off Thunderbolt and finish it off with a few fast moves

You have to use SB on Infernape?

If your Mewtwo is maxed and knows Confusion, it'll wipe out Infernape in 4-5 hits. At 5 hits you will have just fully charged SB.

If it knows Psycho Cut I would support Fast TMing it.

My grind is battling Spark in Ultra League with a Flygon. Don't have to use shields and all mons die with 1-2 dragon claws.
