>>30108076Holy shit this so much.
That shit needs restrictions. It's fine that SOS battles are a thing, but they need to:
1. Not be able to happen the first 2 turns of battle no matter what.
2. Not happen unless the wild pokemon is in red hp.
3. Not happen the turn you KO one of the two wild pokemon.
There, fixed SOS battles. People can still use them to grind for shinies / EVs / max IV pokemon through use of False Swipe and Hold Back, yet it also allows normal people to actually catch some goddamn wild pokemon without it being a chore greater than finding all 100 TMs each and every battle.
