No Retreat Build Explanation

This build is centered on dealing high burst damage using Megahorn or providing constant crowd control using Iron Head while Falinks is in No Retreat formation and utilizing its effects.

• Attack Weight provides Falinks with a large Attack stat boost, increasing its overall damage output.
• Weakness Policy further boosts Falinks' damage whenever it takes damage which synergizes with the effects of No Retreat formation, particularly the reduced damage from the front. It also gives a decent amount of Attack and HP stats.
• Resonant Guard gives Falinks more HP, improves its HP regeneration, and allows it to generate shields for itself and its team whenever it deals damage, which can stack on top of the shield it gets with Iron Head.
• Focus Band or Aeos Cookie can be a replacement for Resonant Guard for better overall durability and survivability.
• For a more offensive build, replace Resonant Guard with Razor Claw or Muscle Band, particularly when opting for Megahorn.
• Eject Button gives Falinks a repositioning tool during No Retreat.
• X Speed can also work for the build, allowing Falinks to temporarily cancel out its reduced movement speed penalty during No Retreat.
• The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Brown Emblems for more damage and 6 White Emblems additional HP. This can be achieved by having at least two (2) Emblems that are both Brown and White.
• Equip Emblems that improve Attack or HP to balance out Falinks' offense and defense.
• Sp. Atk., Sp. Def., and Defense can be freely traded for the other stats.

Razor Claw (Incldues effect) + Attack Weight (6 stacks) + Weakness Policy (4 stacks)	1672	2774 5354	1972 2632

Since the build is centered on No Retreat and Megahorn or Iron Head, equipping items that will maximize their damage is the ideal item combination.

As the results show, Muscle Band or Razor Claw, Attack Weight, and Weakness Policy will be the best for the build. However, Razor Claw will be more beneficial for the build in the long run due to the frequency Falinks can trigger its effects when using Megahorn or Iron Head while in No Retreat formation, and the fact that the Pokemon automatically gains a Boosted Attack whenever it uses Megahorn or Iron Head.

For a more defensive build, Resonant Guard, Aeos Cookie, or Focus Band would to be the best item for the build due to their synergy with No Retreat.

Beat Up (Iron Head) Build Explanation

This build is centered on maximizing the troopers' attack damage when using Beat Up through items. Iron Head will be Falinks' complimentary move to give it more mobility and damage during Dispatch formation.

• Rapid-Fire Scarf gives Falinks a massive attack speed buff that also works for the troopers during Dispatch formation.
• Attack Weight provides Falinks with a large Attack stat boost, increasing its overall damage output.
• Weakness Policy further boosts Falinks' damage whenever it takes damage, which also increases the troopers' damage during Dispatch formation. It also gives a decent amount of Attack and HP stats.
• X Attack increases Falinks' damage output and attack speed which the troopers can also gain during Dispatch formation.
• The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Brown Emblems for more damage and 6 White Emblems additional HP. This can be achieved by having at least two (2) Emblems that are both Brown and White.
• Equip Emblems that improve Attack or Critical-Hit Rate to further improve the troopers' attacks during Dispatch formation.
• Sp. Atk., Sp. Def., and Defense can be freely traded for the other stats.

Since the build is centered on the troopers' attack damage and Iron Head during Dispatch formation, equipping items that will maximize their damage is the ideal item combination.

Out of all the item combinations, Rapid-Fire Scarf, Attack Weight, and Weakness Policy will be the best for the build. The item combination's results are only slightly lower than the best outcome. However, Rapid-Fire Scarf's attack speed buff is more beneficial in the long run since troopers can trigger and gain the buff when they're attacking.

Aeos Cookie	Aeos Cookie provides Falinks with a massive HP boost, making it more durable in fights.
Focus Band	Focus Band makes Falinks more durable through increased defenses and healing.
Muscle Band	Muscle Band gives Falinks increased damage and attack speed, which works incredibly well with its Boosted attack's effects.

Rapid-Fire Scarf	Rapid-Fire Scarf allows Falinks to quickly build up Boosted attacks and trigger its effects. It also works for Troopers during Dispatch Formation.
Resonant Guard	Resonant Guard allows Falinks to generate shields for itself and its team whenever it deals damage, which works particularly well with No Retreat.

Eject Button	Eject Button gives Falinks a repositioning tool that's works particularly well during No Retreat.
X Speed	X Speed works particularly well during No Retreat formation since it cancels out the movement speed penalty, allowing Falinks to move much faster than it would.
X Attack	X Attack increases Falinks' damage output and attack speed which are also inherited by the troopers during Dispatch formation.

Battle Item Tier List

Best Moveset

Move	Explanation
Iron Head	Iron Head gives Falinks another crowd control move and some mobility. It also allows Falinks to easily change its facing direction and will deal a ton of damage during No Retreat formation.
No Retreat	No Retreat is a great defensive and crowd control move. It also has better synergy with Megahorn due to the damage the move can deal while in No Retreat formation.

This moveset gives Falinks a more balanced kit with an exceptionally high damage output. No Retreat gives Falinks a great crowd control tool that also increases its Attack stat and reduces the damage it takes from the front. Although the move trades mobility for those effects, the penalty can be cancelled by simply equipping and using X Speed. Iron Head gives Falinks more mobility if it's in Column Formation, but it becomes another powerful crowd control tool when used during No Retreat Formation.

Although choosing between No Retreat and Beat Up is entirely up to player preference, No Retreat is easier to pull off and makes knocking out opponents faster, at least based on our experience.

Troopers Take Damage During Column Formation

Remember that even if enemies only attack Troopers instead of the Brass, Falinks will still take damage.

Note: During Beat Up, Troopers will have their own HP bar which won't affect Falinks' actual HP. Moreover, when Troopers take damage during Dispatch Formation, Weakness Policy won't trigger; it will only trigger when the Brass takes damage.

Hiding in Grass Mechanics

Furthermore, when hiding in grass, the Brass is the only one that needs to be inside to be hidden. Even if there are Troopers outside grass, as long as the Brass is inside, opponents won't see Falinks. However, troopers outside the grass can still take damage.

Grass Guide: How Does Grass Work?

Utilize Boosted Attacks

Falinks' Boosted Attacks apply a slow to the target and reduces Tackle, Megahorn, or Iron Head's cooldown. Heavily incorporating Boosted Attacks into Falinks' gameplay and taking advantage of these effects, especially the cooldown reduction, makes the Pokemon more efficient in fights.

Use Tackle, Megahorn, or Iron Head to Instantly Gain a Boosted Attack

Using Tackle, Megahorn, or Iron Head instantly turns Falinks' attack into a Boosted Attack. Make sure to always follow up with a Boosted Attack after using Tackle, Megahorn, or Iron Head to quickly trigger its effects, particularly the cooldown reduction.

This is especially true when using No Retreat and Megahorn. Refer to the Spartan Hold Combo for an example.

▼ Go to Spartan Hold Combo ▼

Take Advantage of Battle Armor

Battle Armor reduces the damage taken by Falinks from critical-hits, making the Pokemon effective against brawlers and opponents that rely on critical-hits, which are usually frontliners.

Battle Armor: Falinks Passive Effect and Cooldown

Utilize the Bonus Aeos Energy

Moreover, the ability also allows Falinks to carry ten (10) more aeos energy than normal, for a total of 60 aeos energy. This enables Falinks to score more points in one attempt compared to others, which becomes more effective during the last few minutes of the game where points are doubled.

Fight in the Frontlines When Using No Retreat

When using No Retreat, it's best to put Falinks in the frontlines. No Retreat's shoving effect is great for discouraging opponents from breaching the frontlines, which indirectly protects allies that are in the backlines. Moreover, since Falinks switches to No Retreat formation after using the move, its Attack stat increases, and it takes reduced damage from its front, making the Pokemon stronger offensively and defensively.

No Retreat: Falinks Move Effect and Cooldown

Change Facing Direction with Megahorn or Iron Head

While on No Retreat formation, Falinks can't change the direction it's facing, allowing opponents to simply attack from another side to bypass the reduced damage effect from the front. Use Megahorn or Iron Head to quickly change the direction Falinks is facing and ensure that opponents will always be attacking the Pokemon from the front.

Megahorn	Iron Head

Utilize the Cooldown Reset Mechanic

Whenever Falinks uses No Retreat, whether that's switching from Column formation to No Retreat formation or vice versa, Tackle, Megahorn or Iron Head's cooldown is reset. Utilize this mechanic to deal more damage.

Use X Speed to Counter the Movement Speed Penalty

Falinks' movement speed is significantly reduced while it's on No Retreat formation, limiting its maneuverability. However, the movement speed penalty can be cancelled temporarily by using X Speed. This puts Falinks' movement speed close to or slightly faster than normal.

X Speed Effect and How to Get

Revert to Column Formation for Mobility

In scenarios where Falinks is chasing targets or escaping from opponents while on No Retreat formation, it's better to just revert to the Column formation to turn the Pokemon's movement speed and Megahorn or Iron Head's effects back to normal.

Note: Simply use No Retreat again to return to Column formation.

Let the Troopers Do the Fighting When Using Beat Up

When using Beat Up, Falinks' gameplay will be sending out troopers to attack targets. Since Falinks switches to Dispatch formation when it uses Beat Up, the troopers have some momentary autonomy, and the brass can perform actions without involving the troopers. In this case, the troopers will do most of the fighting while the brass assists them.

Note: While in Dispatch formation, troopers who are separated from the brass will also gain the bonuses and trigger any effects of Held Items equipped.

Beat Up: Falinks Move Effect and Cooldown

Dispatch Troopers on Multiple Targets

Since Beat Up has two charges, Falinks can send out troopers to multiple targets at once. One way to take advantage of this mechanic is by using it to farm multiple wild Pokemon or attack two opponents simultaneously.

Use X Attack to Buff Troopers

When X Attack is used, the troopers that are dispatched will also gain the effects of the battle item. Although not a must, it is definitely beneficial for Falinks to equip and use X Attack when using Beat Up.

X Attack Effect and How to Get

Use Megahorn While in Dispatch Formation

Using Megahorn while Falinks is in Dispatch formation has the brass dash towards the designated direction, which is how the move normally works, while all troopers who are separated from the brass attack with their horns towards the direction their facing.

In this case, Falinks can hit multiple opponents with Megahorn simultaneously with the help of the troopers. Using Megahorn while in Dispatch formation is a great way for the troopers to deal more damage before returning to the Column formation.

Note: The troopers will only attack with their horns if the brass hits a target with Megahorn.

Megahorn: Falinks Move Effect and Cooldown

Regroup with Troopers Using Iron Head

When Falinks uses Iron Head while in Dispatch formation, the brass and all troopers who are separated from it will leap to the designated location and Falinks will automatically return to the Column formation. In this case, using Iron Head is essentially a way for Falinks to regroup and reset things.

However, the damage dealt by Iron Head and its shoving effect while in Dispatch formation also makes it a great offensive tool in general.

Note: Iron Head is objectively the better choice when using Beat Up to allow troopers to quickly regroup with the brass.

Iron Head: Falinks Move Effect and Cooldown

Solo Objectives

Falinks is great at quickly taking objectives like Regieleki by itself, whether it's using No Retreat or Beat Up.

Stay on Top of Targets When Using Dust Devil Formation

Dust Devil Formation deals a ton of damage in total and slows targets that are hit. However, it only hits targets that are about melee range to Falinks and maximizing the move's damage requires targets to get hit for the full duration. With that, it's best to first get close to a target or wait for them to get near Falinks before using Dust Devil Formation, then make sure to stay close to them for the duration.

Dust Devil Formation: Falinks Move Effect and Cooldown

Move With the Trooper's Direction

The move can deal more damage if Falinks moves in the same direction as the Troopers instead of away from them or just standing still.
