Pokémon Conquest Kingdom Types and Monthly Planning
Build a balanced Ransei army and use each month's actions efficiently.
Edition covered
Original 2012 Nintendo DS release. Uses Conquest links, one-move Pokémon and Ransei battle rules; main-series levels and four-move sets do not apply.
Plan one month at a time
Warriors can perform a limited monthly action. Fighting, training or working at a facility uses that opportunity, so assign the invasion army before spending its members on routine domestic tasks.
| Army role | Useful action | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Invasion team | Attack the next objective | Do not use its monthly action first |
| Border defenders | Remain positioned for defense | Newly exposed kingdoms |
| Low-link pairs | Train or battle wild Pokémon | Their compatibility cap |
| Support Warriors | Use facilities | Actual money or development needs |
Prepare for the next kingdom's type
Kingdoms are associated with Pokémon types, but the battlefield and individual enemy species still matter. Bring coverage that can handle both the expected type and any exceptions in the opposing team.
| Kingdom | Associated type | Preparation idea |
|---|---|---|
| Aurora | Normal | Watch for Fighting matchups |
| Ignis | Fire | Bring Water or another effective option |
| Greenleaf | Grass | Bring Fire or Flying coverage |
| Fontaine | Water | Bring Electric or Grass coverage |
| Violight | Electric | Consider Ground matchups and terrain |
Keep conquered borders defended
Expanding the map creates more borders to cover. Redistribute Warriors instead of leaving all strong pairs at the newest conquest; a distant perfect partner contributes little if it cannot reach the next battle in time.
Use facilities for a purpose
Facilities can support training, money and other development. Invest based on the current shortage, while keeping the main army free for a battle that month and checking which actions improve an underused pair.
