Ranked Damage Event Details

The Ranked Damage Event is an event where you attempt to obtain a score across three battles to earn rewards. Sync Pairs that have completed one of the battles will not be able to participate in any other battle unless that battle is reset. Earn the highest score you can within the time limit!

How to Obtain a Score

Your score is equal to the amount of damage you inflict on your opponent during battle. Choose Sync Pairs that can exploit your opponent’s weaknesses, then use powerful moves and inflict status conditions in order to deal as much damage as possible!

Note: Due to Not Super Effective: Zero Damage, attacks other than supereffective attacks will inflict zero damage.
Note: Not Super Effective: Zero Damage cannot be ignored by moves or Passive Skills that have the “Ignores the target’s Passive Skills that would reduce the damage of attacks” effect.
Note: Except in certain circumstances, damage incurred from sources other than attacks, such as poison, will not be reduced to zero.

Score Rank

You will receive a Score Rank based on your score. Your Score Rank is divided into the 15 ranks listed below. Form your lineup to maximize your effectiveness in battle and earn the best Score Rank possible!

Additional Special Parameters

Special rules such as “Reduces the damage allies deal with Sync Moves and Max Moves” will be set for each battle. Some battles do not have special rules.

About Rankings
