Is super training in S/M?

Are bottle caps for hyper training finite or farmable?

Seconding this. I have no idea how this shit works.

If Super Training ISN'T in, is there an easy way to EV train?

Regular bottle caps are found in trash cans, they seem to respawn after a while. Silver and gold ones are finite and given out by NPCs. That's what I've been told, don't quote me on this.

Can you reduce EVs? Since Super Training isn't around, I want to be able to fix my party's EVs once the Plaza is available.

Super training was dead a long time ago. Horde EV training is a lot faster and you can ev multiple things at the same time.

The main thing super training was good for was the status screen at the bottom that kept track of how many EVs you've invested. Sure there are better ways to train but you can't beat the tracker.

Friendly reminder that pressing the Y button on the Summary screen lets you see where your EVs are.
No exact numbers, which sucks, but it's something.

For those of you that are playing the game, please tell us:

- are horde battles still a thing?
- can you grow berries?
- how does the bottle cap system works? It is possible to max IV a mon using only normal bottle caps?

Thanks.

I haven't seen hordes like in gen 6 yet. Honey only calls one pokemon and sweet scent doesn't appear to work in the overworld. I suppose waiting for pokemon to call for help might be similar to hordes for EV training but it would take alot longer.

Yes, in the PokePelago. Once you get Charizard's Poke Ride after Kiawe's trial you instantly get access to it on your X button menu. It costs 15 normal beans and 30 Pokemon in your PC I think. click what's circled in red in Pic related.

The real issue is the time required to fully EV train a mon without hordes or Super Training.

Super Training was slower but more convenient. There was no hunting down the right horde critter or shifting items around. Counting out specific EV targets was easier.

Pokemon gives me a headache. This one step forward, two steps back shit is getting out of hand. I understand wanting to keep unique features for some gens. but if the goal of these new methods of training is to make the end game more accessible, why wouldn't you keep all these features as the games continue?

Wild Pokemon can call for help multiple times in a battle until i guess you're facing 5 Pokemon at once.

But its endless, so I got 2 levels trying to catch grubbin while fending off his bretheren.

Also, there is an item to make them call for help, I guess it'll be useful for pseudo hordes.

So I still need to breed/soft reset Pokemon to get the right IVs Hidden Power? And you have to be on the right IV to even get it?
The Fuck? I thought this shit was meant to be the thing that made breeding significantly shorter?
Is there a way to decrease IVs for Speed and Attack?
Does it max out at 31, or are you stuck if you're at 30, 29, or 28?
