>>58425524Yep, but unless you want a specific gender or size (I ignore if the starters are size locked) early it doesn't matter much in this game: early mints, early EV berries, tons of early vitamins, mid game gives you more EV training tools and there's even super training. So any mon can become a superior breed.
>>58425558I think it is the same deal as PLA: the spawn ratio and how it works makes it for shiny to be more common than the traditional games. I have found 2 shiny ignoring the scripted one, just walking around.
