Fourth Gym Battle: 270-second results for eight types and both damage categories

Use the 650 recorded event-era pairs, excluding later Archie/Maxie releases and Academy pairs with a different training system. Compared teams include at least one regular Support-role pair.

Move level 5, connected grids within 70 energy, 6★ EX/EX roles, and recorded Superawakening skills. Stats use recorded level-200 values plus grid additions, not complete in-game maxima including gear, potential tickets, and lucky skills.

Start at five sync buffs, without cheer, against three weak opponents. Apply the selected damage-category immunity and super-effective-only rule.

One cycle is three allied actions plus one enemy action in an estimated 19 seconds; each action takes a quarter-cycle. Each ally acts once per cycle, and syncs occur immediately when ready. Sync animations pause the clock; max moves consume time. These are not measured times.

Narrow the team candidates and compare moves, sync moves, and grids that fit within 270 seconds. Include field-duration and Type Rebuff helpers and adopt a route with a high cumulative index among those compared. This is not exhaustive optimization over every team and route.

Ordinary fields last 50 seconds plus 10 seconds per extension rank. The Field EX role’s extra 50 seconds on its deployment and the extra 30 seconds from reapplying an active matching EX field are handled separately.

Track Type Rebuff by target and type and break duration by target actions. Effects do not retroactively increase earlier attacks.

Damage gains from lowered Defense/Sp. Def, circle expiry, some intrinsic multipliers, gauge, HP/survival, and chance recovery are not fully modeled. Some effect conditions remain unresolved, so these results do not establish the strongest teams in actual play.
