My 2nd generation Phoenix VS Poritoka from the Legend Cup. My Phoenix has maxed stats and all techs. Raised this utilizing a combination calculator for Monster Rancher 2 DX via Legend Cup website, and also followed a guide from teawch to some degree until I deviated at the 2nd Phoenix after I used the 4x Paradoxines. Instead of focusing on SKI like in his guide, after the 4x Paras, I had practically reached 999 SKI with mine after 1 single Errantry. So I had to focus on DEF+LIF first, and then slowly maxed that out, then worked on SPD+INT while alternating to POW occasionally. Hope this helps! More info below.
