Is Nishino Flower good?

Nishino Flower (Layered Petals) is a meta legacy parent for Sprint and Mile because her late-race Unique is strict but perfectly placed. As a runner she's strong in Sprint and Mile, similar to Taiki Shuttle, with a Speed and Power growth split and Pace Chaser as her best style for the Unique.

Beeline Burst is her most flexible Potential skill, though where it fires is luck; raise her Medium aptitude to A for the Japanese Oaks and her Medium-based secret events.

Strengths

  • Meta legacy for Sprint and Mile
  • Strong Sprint and Mile runner
  • Good Speed and Power growth

Weaknesses

  • Strict Unique conditions
  • Beeline Burst timing is random
  • Needs Medium sparks for some career goals
