>>56508008This reminds me I've got a solid Jolteon candidate and a solid BFS Dedenne I could use for a Raikou team at old gold.
What I lack however, is a Raikou worth using. I wouldn't lack that if mints were a thing.
>>56508215I got extremely lucky with a shiny Igglybuff spawn before Christmas last year, but I'm still trying for a solid Ralts myself.
With Raenonx, I'm not sure if it includes area bonus or even has a way for you to enter it manually, but it's not that hard to figure out how to multiply an end result by 1.6x for a 60% area bonus.
The trick to hunting for useful Igglybuff and Pichu is apparently to go to Greengrass and have a short 90+ minute sleep session where your sleep tracking device is mostly, but not completely still (give it a tap once every half hour)
Your resulting DP will be very low and force mostly these babies to spawn, albeit in smaller numbers.
You're aiming to replicate the early-game experience where it gives you things that tend to be pretty useful for new players.
As a strategy it also encourages being premium because of these spawns needing 5 points, and having a premium bonus biscuit + 1 poké biscuit ready.
