Recommended Skill Sets
Summary

Inksquid is a Tier I Ghost-type physical attacker with base stats leaning toward P.ATK and dual defenses, but low speed. Its trait 'Graffiti' grants +50% power to off-type skills, but since no skills in the current list are labeled with types, it's impossible to determine which are off-type, making the trait difficult to actively utilize. Its skill pool focuses on physical output, supplemented by energy control, buffs/debuffs, and survival skills—suitable as a sustained damage or disruption frontline.

Notes
  • No skills have attributed types, unable to determine if 'Graffiti' trait can trigger; do not prioritize this trait when building movesets.
  • Speed 56 is low, difficult to move first, suitable for second-move response or stall playstyle
  • Graveyard Brawl's 180 Energy cost is too high, and more enemy Energy means lower power. Limited practical value.
  • Energy Blade requires multiple successful responses to stack power, resulting in slow startup
  • Lacks healing means, Sweetheart Sustain also heals enemy, use with caution
