So gamefreak, why the fuck did you do these so difficult to obtain?
It's fucking easier to actually IV breed goddammit.

Because they're not meant as a means to an end, they're to fix inconveniences for competitive shinies and legendaries

It's harder to get Pokemon up to Lv 100.

Why do all these """game journalists""" hit devs with soft questions? Why not interrogate them to figure out exactly why they do this phenomenally stupid shit?

They're piss easy to get. I'm still sitting on like 10 silver and 3 gold caps, and there is nothing worthwile to use them on. The problem isn't the caps, it's the grind to 100. I'd rather do Le Wow or Blissey bases than grinding fucking FC, because at least those involved playing the actual game.

Get a bunch of Treasure Hunt lottery shops. I'm at 25 silver and 6 gold bottle caps and I've already used over 20 more silvers.

They're not difficult to obtain, but it's hard as fuck to even use them because getting a Pokemon to level 100 is a chore.

Blissey bases can get a pokemon from level 1-76 in under an hour, and you can carry a whole team to level up at the same time. I'm pretty sure that's impossible in SM

This also helps immensely when using Isle Aphun to get rare treasures as you attempt to get any Gold Bottle Caps. Regular Bottle Caps are probably more worth getting if you KNOW for sure that whatever pokemon needs Hyper Training doesn't really need too much maintenance.

Nice meme. The EXP ratio is shit. It's faster leveling on Route 1.

The bottle caps aren't the problem, it's getting your mons to lv100.
Poni canyon seems to give plenty of caps.

I just got a big nugget, two nuggets and two pearls earlier today.

Guess you're just unlucky.

I don't mind the bottle cap hunting, but I think having to be level 100 is annoying as hell. Especially when they removed grinding spots like restaurants

Getting a lvl 100 is harder.

The Static Elite Four shouldn't be a main source of EXP, but thats the only option Gamefreak left the game with.

Easiest way I have found is just Blundertrade a few boxes of mons and speak to guy on the right hand side twice (first time to collect 2 FC) to ask what facilities they have. Registered 2 or 3 people with the 5 star kitchens pretty quickly. Got a few of the the higher level Treasure Hunts too. Just got to spend an evening doing the missions now I've saved up loads of tickets while I have been working away with unstable internet.

Bonus is once you have a bunch of boxes full of shitmons from wonder trading you can farm PP Up/PP Max reliably from the lotto on a daily basis.
