Had four more consecutive wild chases after the Poke-kid, but this time I spammed X and was able to heal. Lesson learned: don't get swamped in tight spaces. Got the Pin Missile TM, though.

It's been pretty tense so far. How'd you manage your runs on SwSh? I feel like I'll overlevel if I fought every trainer. Do gyms only have the leader as sole battle?

I can confirm that route trainers still proc the tunnel vision and still hold a pokeball.
