How to make a team where no Pokémon is illegal?

For some reason I can't figure it out. National Dex AG won't let you use the most recent megas, and when I try to make a team without picking a format at all, most of my Pokémon like Wailord are still illegal bc they "didn't exist in gen 9."

I'm sorry, WHO??

2 out four of the next brave heroes due for a refine right before said refine is released and one of them is Felix??? And Rise Above is in HoF???? I don't check stuff like this ahead of time, so I'm honestly floored

Torn between needing this for myself and hoping his refine sucks lmao. I want him, but I don't need a repeat of what happened when he was introduced

Hotheaded Best Boy

As a firm believer in "win with your faves" I submit for your consideration: Caspar

Arcane Cake: Really just the best option I have. Although, if I could get the fodder, I was considering Arena Axe + Shatter Slash to take advantage of SS's debuff and lower cooldown. But Cake's stat boosting and true damage are very nice.

Reposition: Reposition lol Depending on the team, I might switch it with a Rally, but i don't find it a necessary change.

Archrival: Like I said, I might switch it for Shatter Slash, but for now, Archrival does its job. It can be a little difficult to charge without WTA, but with the right team setup and support, it's not difficult enough to not use it.

Rise Above: High stats go brrrrrr. But fr, he was among my top units in Attack and Speed already, and with RA, his defenses aren't exactly low. He's great for running it with Instruct. Almost all of my other units get at least 3/4 stats boosted, if not all 4. Also, he soaks up debuffs that affect foe's with the highest _____ stat.

A/S Taker Burst: Great Talent + Speed based damage and damage reduction + Pulse. Also the tempo effect means i don't need Duelist's Blow. Originally I had Null C-Avoid and that was fine, but this works better for my needs. And it neutralizes his Attack/Speed penalties while Cake neutralizes foe's bonuses, so love that

Instruct: High stats go brrrrrrrrrrr. Lol I already explained it really, but I think we all know it just pairs well with RA. Faith was another option I used and the charging helps with Archrival, and Bulwark isn't bad for all the warping and style range changing going around, but again I can get those support effects from someone else.

Roy Engaged: Helps survivability and making sure he gets Archrival off. Also extra stats which help with Instruct and Taker Burst. Edelgard, Lucina, and Erika have also proven to be good options. Micaiah and Byleth go well with Instruct, but i prefer them on other units that i use.

Potent Seal: Honestly I flip between this, NFU, one of the stat boosting ones, and DC, depending on the team I have him on at the time. It's especially easy to cover these in AR-O

Tumultuous Echo: Canto and extra movement is always nice. Since I took off Null C Avoid I was considering the C-Disrupt Echo, but I think I prefer this since that's a little more situational and enemy phase based than Tumultuous.

What do we think? Any tips on making him better? Rn he can beat everyone on the new cheer squad with minimal support except for Ike, who he can still at least survive thanks to Roy's engage, so I'm satisfied, but if he can be better, I won't complain

Ol' reliable

CC Lunatic and not refreshed by Peony. Just the team's start of turn buffs/debuffs. I know player built Ike's will be more stacked, but hey not bad

Which do you think would be better to run Rise Above + Patience?

Currently leaning towards Lissa for the bonus damage/healing in her weapon and consistent DR on follow-up, but then Medus is of course a dragon, has built in scowl, and still can heal with Flame (I don't have Ice right now), so I'm on the fence. Doesn't help that their stats are almost identical with their Def/Res just being flipped. Any thoughts?

Any potential in these builds?

Just playing around in the unit builder with some units i like/ would want to build if I ever get the extra fodder for them. For these 3 I kinda like where these builds are, but I'm also wondering how they'd work in practice. What do we think?

You ever have such terrible luck on a banner that you just give up?

Over 50 summons, and I haven't gotten a single one, but what really gets me is that I haven't gotten any 5 star character for the charge either. I mean I got my free Laegjarn, but I really wanted another for the Wyvern fodder, and also I just want Micaiah, but I'm just saving my orbs again atp. Other than feh pass I'm completely f2p too, so i don't have a lot of orbs to throw away in the first place. And like, I know it's a gacha game and them's the breaks and all that, but it's still just like "damn" you know? Anyone else ever just call it a day on a banner and move onto the next before the banner ends?

Blue-Sky Wyvern vs. Patience vs. Heavenly Soar

Which, in your opinion, would be optimal for a defensive flier? Wyvern and Patience have potent with Wyvern having the defensive Frozen effect and Patience having a near guaranteed potent regardless of your opponent's stats. And then Heavenly Soar trades potent entirely for its incredible movement/pass.

​

Honestly, I'm still kind of leaning Soar, but wanted to hear from the people lol

I don't know why, but I suddenly can't copy or paste text in the mobile version of obsidian and I can't figure out if it's a problem with the app or my phone. Has anyone else experienced this issue? It's been like this for about a week now...

Which would you say is the more useful skill across the board? Rival Break has better stat boosting and damage reduction, but Gust has more true damage and Canto, so I'm on the fence.

For reference, I'm thinking of giving one to Brave Chrom, but I'm also just thinking in general.
