Yes, I believe they can only found in the 6-x stages. I ran 6-5 like 17 times and only got 3 petals out of it so it might require some patience.

Best squad 1 configuration for Whales?

Step 4 40 Flower gems for guaranteed 5 Star gold dressbloom

Honestly... that is not worth it tbh.
Although... that is a 5.8% chance of rainbow (0.5% chance, 12 rolls) versus 4.9% chance (1%, 5 yolos)
The golds is meh though with a 52.4% chance of getting 1 (or more) (12 rolls) versus 53.0% (5 yolos @ 14%).

To be honest, they are about the same. The step 3 and 4 is a joke though.
Priority also has no bronzes, so priority would be the better bet when it comes to bond crystals.

This can be

I ended up doing both the lvl 90 neutral whale mission and special bonus mission with that configuration. Unfortunately i still am not able to do lvl 90s for magic, slice, pierce, hit whale missions

I'll keep upgrading my squad and hopefully i'll be able to complete them at some point

Would anyone recommend that i use Kerria in squad one or not necessary? She will be for the Slice whale missions..

Kerria is often one of the strongest options for any squad 1 team. If she's decently supported with skill trigger buffs, she can easily be made into the tank for the squad with the Taunt promotion. If you decide to use her then she could most likely replace Dendrobium in fghk0's lineup (since the other 4 girls give those sweet skill trigger buffs), though you will be giving up a lot of frontloaded damage for survivability.

It's not an optimal setup at all but I use Kerria along with my four best attack debuffers (New Year's Ivy, Snowdrop, Oncidium Bride, Cherry) as the first squad on all of my whales. Fights tend to take awhile but any damage taken is minor and tends to be undone whenever Kerria's skill goes off or when the whale runs over chocolate panels created by having Lantana in one of the other squads.

This may not be the best setting, but the team is a personal style.

If you can't watch, please let me know, thank you.

Surprised at the latest blooms. I figured that Peach would be a shoe-in for blooming due to her being such a big hitter

still waiting for Lycoris to get her Bloomed Portrait...

I want my waifu's 3rd appearance already...
