>>56051690I have a BFS Dedenne that I'll run on a future Raikou team, but it hinges on getting mints or a better Raikou.
I also have a pretty good BFS Kangaskhan that I may run at Snowdrop Tundra, but I've still not been there.
I do have a pair of Absol that would be very good for gathering apples, I previously bemoaned that they weren't cacao gatherers but I've since changed my tune on that.
However, since I'm always running a Raichu and have the Go Plus Pikachu, I'm generally doing fine for apples for the dishes that actually need them (particularly "Calm Mind" Fruit Salad, Neroli's Restorative Tea, etc).
My hopeful goal is to get a good Delibird this week, because it's the best eggs gatherer right now.
That said, the aforementioned Raichu also unlocks eggs at 60, so when they do finally raise that level cap I'm going to be rushing to unlock that.
Entei counts as single stage and I have a Gentle one that has an excellent skill trigger rate; albeit not until level 50 iirc.
The energy recovery down nature will be offset by the BFS Vulpix I have, as it has the Energy Recovery Bonus subskill plus that energizing cheer main skill.
>>56052042Pretty good duck, but would be absolutely sure to analyse it for expected skill trigger rate before putting a single skill seed into it.
