Best teams for Thornblade

Grass break rotation

Advanced · Pawprint recommends

  1. Thornblade DPS
  2. Pomawk BREAK
  3. Melloblum Support
  4. Somniwing REGEN
Why it works
Hold Somniwing's Ethereal Light Wave, break with Pomawk, then slip in Melloblum's Thorny Blessing right before the Break State opens so Thornblade hits into it buffed.
The catch
The rotation only pays off if the buff lands before the break. Somniwing comes from Elite Training.

How does Thornblade evolve?

Melloblum: Aniimo level 27, a personality that includes Faithful, and the item Stamen of Cubbo's Rose (community databases, not yet checked in our own save).

How many forms does Thornblade have?

4: Basic Form, Towerwood Form, Thunderstorm Form and Prismana Form. Forms are the same creature, not separate entries — they share the same dex number, the same base values, the same trait and the same skills. That is why we keep them on one page instead of 4 thin ones.

Is Thornblade any good?

We have not ranked Thornblade yet, and a ranking without play time behind it would be invented. What the numbers say: its ATK of 121 is well above average, while its M.DEF of 73 is right around the middle of the dex, for 509 points across all six values. Those are the index base values — the level they refer to is not documented, so read them as a shape, not as a score. We will judge it properly once we have used it.

What is Thornblade's trait?

Sword Dance: Each skill used grants 1 stack of [Sword Dance], up to 4 stacks, lasting 15s. Each basic attack costs 1 stack of [Sword Dance] to deal 180% extra damage.
