Why does it sometimes give you more than 1 BP for losing?

I think it gives you BP based on how many you KO or what place you came in, and it always gives me 1 if i lose.

It's Place based
In Masters you get 5 for first, 3 for second, 2 for third, and 1 for fourth

Any strategies or specific pokemon that work especially well in Battle Royale?

You might have better luck getting it through Pickup.

Mimikyu. You can Swords Dance safely and Shadow Sneak to steal kills.

I tried to give it a shot but fuck it man. The AI always cheats in these sorts of facilities, not to mention that here you'll get ganged up upon sooner or later.

This kind of salt-inducing battle mechanic is only fun when among friends.

Anything else? I was considering using one of the better pseudolegendaries like Salamence, but I want a few more opinions before I come up with anything solid.

Buzzwole is kinda good for physical defense, but in my experience I've had to use coverage moves like Earthquake more since there's a fuckton of Steel types.

I know what you mean OP I was trying to finish Master Rank to get all of the styles and holy shit it took me at least 3 hours to beat it. Those fucking faggot NPCs use things like Latias, Cresselia, Suicune, and pseudo-megas all the goddamn time. Got 58 BP by the end of it, at least it's a lot better than Battle Tree.

I do have a decent one I was setting up as a stallbreaker, but I'm not sure if that'll work here since there's less ability to stall (what with up to 3 people beating on you at once).

Does the BP from the Battle Tree not carry over?

Yeah that's the problem with Battle Royales, eventually you'll be the weakest typing-wise and all 3 AIs will try to gang up on you

I've been leading with Merciless Toxapex, and it's worked pretty well. Yeah, you'll eat some collateral damage on ground attacks, and be targetted by electrics, but there's plenty of pokemon that don't use them, and you can pick up some free kos with toxic.

A really important thing to keep in mind is that if someone loses all their mons, they cannot win regardless of KOs. I've won matches where I had 2 and someone else had 5, just because they were the ones to go down.

And Baneful Bunker, I take it.

So Toxapex, a heavy hitter like Salamence, and something that can cover their weaknesses- would that work?

There really isn't any "strategy" in this mode I think, the enemy teams are completely randomized so it's up to the RNG to determine if you get matched against things that are weak to your team's overall type. The only reason I won the Master Rank battle was because there were a bunch of Psychic and Grass types and my team was Incineroar/Buzzwole/Golisopod. I mean really, HP draining moves like Leech Life are amazing for this kind of stuff.

Because you don't use bulky attackers and don't account for the fact that the player who got a KO instantly becomes the target of all other AIs until they KO its mon too. All you have to do is get a KO, sacrifice that mon and then help AIs beat down the one who has the most KOs while stealing the last KO on its mons
