EX Marshall: Encounter Notes

  • Queue Attacks ASAP: It's imperative to get the first move to keep up tempo and ensure a fast run.
  • Buff Up: Buffing Mewtwo magnifies damage dealt!
  • Overall, the Ex Challenge: Clair Very Hard seems very straight forward -- most strategies revolve around buffing up 2 primary attackers and taking out Clair ASAP.
