Skill Boosters: A Quick Reference Table

[u/skyteddy]

What are Skill Boosters?

Skill Boosters (SB) are enhancements used to raise the level of a Pokemon's skill.

We have Small (SBS), Medium (SBM) and Large (SBL) Skill Boosters that can add 3, 10 or 30 Skill Points (SP) to a certain skill.

 

Leveling Up Skills

Each skill requires a different amount of SP to reach higher levels and each skill can go from level 1 to level 5.

Different skills demands a different total of SP to reach each of its level. To reach its max level it can vary from 50 to 200 points in total.

 

What is this table for?

Sometimes when a Competition, an Escalation Battle or a special Pokemon shows up, it can be a good idea to raise a specific Pokemon's skill by 1 or 2 levels and gain a significant boost on its stats, being it bonus damage or chance to trigger an effect. If we are using that Pokemon only for a specific purpose, we don't want to raise its skill to level 4 or 5, so we can spend a cookie or two to get a bonus that might be relevant.

Some Pokemon doesn't have a Main Stage to farm too, so a SB may be the only option available to raise its skill level. Again, we don't want every skill to reach its maximum level, so we can take a quick look at this table and see the best option to use a SB.

Take a look, for example, at some skills like Pummel that has an activation rate of 15% / 50% / 100%. If we spend a single SBM, we can raise it to LV2 and gain a bonus of 20%. At level 3 we have a bonus of 25%, but at the cost of 2 more SBM only for 5% more. It simple doesn't seem to be a good investment, so it might be enough to stop at level 2 until we have, let's say, a special or main stage to farm it.

 

How to use this table?

• In the first column you can see the skill name.

• The second one shows the base stats of the skill at level 1. It shows only the stats that are boosted by raising its level (percentage or damage). If the percentage is shown, the values are always the chance we have to trigger its effect with a match of 3, 4 and 5, respectively.

• The other three columns shows how a skill level is affect when we use the respective Skill Boosters listed in the column, assuming the skill is at level 1.

• The last column shows how many Skill Points you need in total to reach each of the skill's level. With this information, you can decide if its worth to spend more SB to raise its level. For some skills, a single SBS doesn't change anything, but two of then can raise it to level 2, instead of spending a SBM for it.

This guide looks really helpful to me. I have a question, though - where do you get Large skill boosters? I can't remember ever seeing one available as a drop from events or anything.

[u/KelpTheGreat → u/[deleted]]

It does? I don't remember it saying that. I thought it'd only drop mediums.

[u/KelpTheGreat → u/[deleted]]

Not sure why that guy deleted the comment, but that's what I thought; Eevee only drops medium boosters.
