Can anyone do xxxxcross? ;)
Although xxxxcross is completely pointless I tried it:

x2 y'
U F U R U R U' R' U' M' U M U (Lw U L' U' M') or just rotate for 4th pair
at least xxxcross with free pair :)

but it would be better to do it normally, like so:

x2 y'
R2 U R' F
R' U R
y' U R' U' R
eventually L' U2 L or U L' U L
R U' R' U' R U R' U2 R U' R' or something else

Scramble: R’ U2 F’ R U F’ R F2 U

This scramble can be used to solve full step, to get an OLL skip, or to get a PLL skip! In the fullstep and OLL skip solves, PLL is a Y-Perm. And for all three, AUF is U, not U' or U2.

Here is a virtual cube showing all three.

As a side note, I got my PB with this scramble, I used a PLL skip.

R' F2 L2 U2 D' R' B' D2 R L2 U2 L U2 R B2 L' U2 R D L2

I didn't get an amazing time with this scramble but there were 2 free pairs (green-yellow and green-white) and I managed to preserve both so I'm very happy about that.

z' // inspection
U2 D' R' B' F2 * D // cross - * L' U' L to preserve green-yellow pair
y' U' R' U R // 1st pair
y' U R' U R // 2nd pair - could've done R' U2 R to save one move but oh well
y L U2 L' U' L U L' // 3rd pair
U L' U' L U' L' U L // 4th pair
U' F (U R U' R') F' + U' R U2' R2' U' R2 U' R2' U2' R // OLL
U + T perm // PLL

A better solution would've been to insert the green-white pair before the green-yellow one : I would've rotated less

z' // inspection
U2 D' R' B' F2 L' U' L D // cross
L' U2 L // 1st pair
y' U' R' U' R // 2nd pair
etc
