The Wild Area Was the Best Thing to Happen to Modern Pokemon

>You can catch fully evolved Pokemon at higher stars, including Pokemon you can only obtain via trade, stone/item evolutions, and Pokemon that usually evolve at higher levels such as Hydreigon.
>You can catch Pokemon with high species strengths, with a minimum of 1.
>You can get a lot of rewards just for participating, even if you don't catch the Pokemon, including EXP candies, certain berries, and set TRs of certain types.
>As long as you have a second Switch, you can connect to a host's raid unless it is an event Gigantamax. (You can still connect to raids from Wishing Den Gigantamax that aren't events.)
>Even though the game stops the host from accessing raids of higher stars than their badge requirement, the game can still allow you to access other people's raids of higher levels. Someone who just entered the Wild Area can access 5-star raids from a different host.
>For the host, there is a 100% catch rate for non-event, non-Gigantamax Pokemon. (And if the host plays alone, it is 100% catch rate even for non-event Gigantamax Pokemon.)
>Thanks to the date scumming method, it is very easy to get whatever you want, so that even Gigantamax Pokemon are only just a time consuming process to get.
>If you have a host that has already beaten the game and uses fully trained Pokemon at Level 100, these raids are very easy to clear.
>Unless you autosave, the raid does not disappear when you catch the Pokemon, so you can reset the host's game to get infinite chances of catching it.
>It is very easy to get Hidden Ability Pokemon now, and if you date scum wishing piece raid dens, you can reset the raid to get a certain Hidden Ability.
>Pokemon are caught as if they are at 1 health with no status condition, so even a Gigantamax Pokemon for a non-host (with a catch rate of 3) is rather easy to acquire in a Poke Ball.
>Shinies for those interested in that
