Dazzling Gleam in Pokemon Survivor

Dazzling Gleam at a glance

What Dazzling Gleam does

Dazzling Gleam is a Fairy-type aura move. A flash of light all around you.

A Pokemon can learn it if it is Fairy-type, which is true of 62 of the 966 Pokemon. It reaches you as a new-move card when you level up, as long as one of your four move slots is free. No Pokemon begins a run with it, so you only find it on level-up cards. Each level-up draws three cards by weight from up to six new-move candidates, your move upgrades and the stat cards, so even a good move can sit out several level-ups.

Dazzling Gleam stats by level

At level 1, Dazzling Gleam deals 9 damage with a 0.5 second cooldown. At level 5 that becomes 20 damage every 0.35 seconds, which is 55.9 potential damage per second against 18 at level 1.

Potential damage per second multiplies damage by the number of hits and divides by the cooldown. It assumes every one lands on the same enemy and leaves out the Pokemon's attack multiplier, your cards and the type chart, so treat it as an upper bound for comparing levels and moves, not as a kill time.

Dazzling Gleam level-up changes

Each level-up card for Dazzling Gleam applies the changes below. They stack, so the level 5 row above already includes all of them.

Dazzling Gleam evolution: Misty Terrain

Dazzling Gleam evolves into Misty Terrain when it reaches level 5 and you have taken the Synthesis card at least once in the same run. Once both are true, a golden evolution card is always offered at your next level-up. Until then, the Synthesis card keeps showing up with a note that it unlocks this evolution, so you do not have to hunt for it.

Misty Terrain keeps the Fairy type and the same slot. Its damage goes from 20 to 35 and its cooldown stays at 0.35 seconds. The move evolution guide lists all 59 evolutions and the cards they need.

• +80% damage
• +35% radius

How to use Dazzling Gleam

• Aura moves do not need a target: Dazzling Gleam fires on its cooldown wherever you are.
• Fighting, Dragon, and Dark take 60% more damage from Fairy moves, while Fire, Poison, and Steel take 40% less. Enemies with two types multiply both effects. See the type chart.
• Other aura moves are Grass Knot, Discharge, and Bulldoze. The moves list compares all 64.
• Each Reflexes card multiplies every cooldown by 0.92 and each Power card multiplies damage by 1.10. After 5 Reflexes cards the 0.5 second cooldown of Dazzling Gleam at level 1 becomes 0.33 seconds.
• Only the move group in your active slot fires, and every move in the group keeps its own cooldown timer. A bond, which a rift win gives you, fuses loose moves into one group.
• Weather can boost or weaken Fairy moves: see the weather guide.
