Dark Team Template

Party, role and execution

Deploy the chosen Dark carry while keeping Hoocrates, Wistella and the other supports in the state required by their effects. Apply any status prerequisites before the damage window, and change the carry for the encounter rather than assuming all Dark attacks perform alike.

Recorded partner effects

These are raw structured values from the acquired v1.0.3 player dataset. Effect names determine the unit and target; no unverified damage-total formula is applied. A false same-species stacking flag means another copy does not add that effect.

Contextual text references and cooldown overrides are shown separately where native v1.0.3 evidence supplies them. They require the activation described in the final column and are not unconditional party totals.

Pal	Effect	Rank 1 raw	Rank 5 raw	Target and conditions
Hoocrates	Shot Attack	15	30	To Self; same-species non-stacking
Wistella	Defense	15	30	To Self; same-species non-stacking
Croajiro Noct	Element Boost Weakness Dark	25	40	To Self And Trainer; same-species non-stacking
Croajiro Noct	Active value (unit as recorded)	2500	5500	Activation and gear conditions apply
Venusa	Additional Effect Darkness	2	6	To Trainer; same-species non-stacking
Roujay	Damage Rate If Defender Darkness	50	65	To Self And Trainer; same-species non-stacking

Equipment and ingredient plan

The source element-party template does not prescribe an equipment loadout. These independent preparation examples support HP recovery and optional player stat reassignment; they are not mandatory gear or a source recommendation. Recipe quantities use the acquired catalog’s default recipe when an exact item name matches; they are first-tier ingredient facts, not a price, crafting-time estimate or assertion that every alternative must be equipped together.

Item	Source slot	Shown tech level	Default recipe ingredients
Recovery Meds	Independent preparation option	Check the recorded unlock	5 Cavern Mushroom, 5 Red Berries, 5 Aquatic Pal Fluids, 3 Cotton Candy
Memory Wiping Medicine	Independent preparation option	Check the recorded unlock	99 Beautiful Flower, 50 Horn, 50 Bone, 50 Aquatic Pal Fluids

Recruitment and upgrade sequence

Recruitment targets: Hoocrates, Wistella, Croajiro Noct, Venusa, Roujay. Open the linked Pal records for the available acquisition and breeding paths.
Craft only the Pal Gear needed by the effects you intend to activate, then confirm the effect at the rank you currently own.
Budget the listed loadout ingredients and upgrade one role at a time; compare the rank 1 and rank 5 records rather than quoting the fully upgraded number on an uncondensed Pal.

Evidence boundary

The factual tables preserve the stated source snapshot. Source-specific recommendations and mechanics have not been independently reproduced in the current game. Exact gameplay rule gaps remain in the coverage notes rather than being filled with invented quantities.

How to play it

Retain Hoocrates

Keep Hoocrates for Dark-Pal Attack support; a duplicate does not add another copy of that effect.

Retain Wistella

Use Wistella’s defense role for the Dark members, keeping its recipients separate from the player’s own defense.

Check the weakness

Croajiro Noct’s Dark damage payoff requires a Dark-weak target. Its launch action is a separate utility choice.

Establish Blind

Use player attacks with Venusa in the party to apply Blind; the recorded status level is not a damage percentage.

Use Roujay after the status

Count Roujay’s conditional payoff only while the enemy is Blind. This party role does not require using it as the flying mount.

Alternates and flex picks

Dandilord

For a Poison variant, replace the two Blind roles together and use Dandilord's activation to apply Poison with trainer hits. Its immunity role is separate from Dark damage support.

Prixter

Pair with an actual Poison applier. The conditional damage role contributes only while the target is Poisoned.
