>>22948302I almost got it without using items once. The planets aligned and gave me good combos, but I did a shitty match with eevees or whatever it tosses in not realizing how close I was with 1 turn left and was left at 1% hp. It's legitimately possible, if the RNG likes you and you play it smart, to win without items but it's honestly not worth it.
>>22954195That's the end of the main game for now. Maybe in a month or two they'll add more to it. Just clean up the stages you haven't perfected yet while you wait now.
>>22955067From my experience it's either turn based, or damage based. They seem to disappear a turn before more get shoved out on most levels, and after I make a nice dent in their HP. It's hard to tell exactly which considering how it's almost always both together.
