This is one of the main gimmicks of the game, level softcaps. All pokemon behave as if traded and will disobey if you overlevel them. This is to prevent people from grinding their way through the bosses with stupidly fucking stacked teams. In earlier versions, if you overlevelled your main mon, you were pretty much fucked. Common candies offset this.
These tiny-ass patches of grass are the main source of wild mons right now. We're going to need fucking everything we can get.
