I placed around 5,500 in the European rankings and 9,000 in the American rankings. Hope I'll stay around those places by the time the competition ends.

You mean 10,500 coins, right? Lucario's disruption can be nasty when you need to act fast.
High score for Japanese players of the Mega Lucario stage is 75,999...with no Mega Evolution. Yowzah.
My ranking also dropped 1,000 from when I checked this morning
It looks like this team is running off Pixie Power, which is interesting.
I tend to ignore abilities that aren't Mega Effects, since they don't even activate 100% of the time when you'd think they do.

I dunno, I don't find it really gets in the way a lot, I hardly notice it a lot of the time. I could probably do without it being there now and then (it's annoying when you're lining up five Pokémon and two of them get disrupted away) but I figure complexity-1 would be more than enough to get the score I need to get so it's not really necessary.
I've just remembered that I meant to be playing with Togekiss and he wasn't in my team due to optimise so I might have to try again!

Sounds like me, except replace "wouldn't finish the match" with "wouldn't upload the score for real". At least that is moot seeing as trying again with newly-acquired coins got myself a higher score that is uploaded properly.

9 hours, 40 mins left. I'm stiill within the top 2000 with 16012. Hopefully that will keep me within the top 20,000 (this is for EU btw)
I still haven't beaten the main game yet. Dam mega levels are such a pain especially with the RNG gods against you.

Just checked the rankings again.
1668th with a score of 18,925. I think I'm good.
Any tips for the Togekiss stage? I can't seem to S rank it (or beat it with consistency).

Are there any other Passcodes out there besides the one for two free Mega Starts?
I also decided to throw some money at the game and bought 12 jewels. First and only time I'll buy jewels, but the game is pretty good so I wanted to pay what I would have paid had it not been free. Got 48k coins and bought -1C and Disruption Delay for Mega Lucario. Got about 15k and should sit comfortably for the duration of the contest

No, I got to 12,000ish place with both items before at around 12,000 score I think. And I gave it my all. Do not think I could do it again. But I might try. I only have enough coins for one game since I haven't played everyday so I got one shot lol.
Nope, none so far.
We get one free Complexity -1 from the game, right?
Are additional ones purchased with coins? If so, how much do they cost?
Last I checked, I had a score of ~14,500 and within the top 10,000, but not sure if that'll stay there. It doesn't help that I don't have Xerneas and am just rocking a team of Mega Slowbro, Chatot, Azumarill and Slurpuff :/

Complexity -1 is 9000 Coins, so a Mega Lucario run with both powerups will set you back 10,500.
I think the C.-1 will remove your 4th slotted Pokemon so make sure you put the one you least want to bring along in that slot.

I'm in the top 2000 and i still fear moving out
just remember though, its usually during the start and the end of a competition, when a lot of people compete. So there is a greater chance of more people overtaking you.

Don't make me spend precious jewels on coins.
Okay, good to know. I realised I shouldn't have used my coins on EXP 1.5. It didn't help at all.

Well, its to get as many matches as possible to get a high score I usually get around 13,000/14,000 however it is much easier to get a higher score if you use the complexity -1 and distruption.
To use those you need to spend 10.500 coins though.

Trick is your stylus should never stop moving. Unlike the regular levels, you can move everything at all times - and you should be. That and buying the "cheats".
Just scored 16,346 and I'm ranked 4,359. I set my alarm on my phone to check where my ranking is an hour before it ends tonight. >.>

Honestly I say give up if you haven't gotten Mega Slowbro. Their'll be other events, so don't waste any coins on this one.

I'm not sure myself - the closest I can get is 25% health left.
In the meantime, I'm going back and beating earlier stages to fill out my roster and also gain more experience - aside from chaining, having Pokemon with better stats helps with stage completion as well, I reckon. If I were to actually choose my party based on ability, that would probably be another helpful area.
"Europe" is counting australians too, who should be just waking up.
Currently sitting at 14.6k, I think I'm safe.. Should be up awake around the time that it ends so if I'm cutting it close I'll pop out a complexity -1 and DD. Haven't actually dropped that many ranks today, only around 3k.. I was expecting worse.

18688th place. Time to go at it again, I don't think it'll hold over the next 4+ hours.

-Horizon-, what team are you packing?
Just used my free complexity-1 + disruption delay to get a SLIGHTLY better score.
It sucked so I went all in and spent almost all of my coins on another complexity-1+ delay, and got a score of 16423, and 4592/216546 in North America.
I don't think I'll be getting better than that.
