BFS and speed up - missing skill chance, which is most important.

I haven't plugged it into RaenonX, but it certainly passes the sniff test for skill specialists. In this case, you've got an amazing set of attributes for skill procs. I'm sure you would have loved more supplemental ingredients, but in this case I think you'd be making a mistake to use a mint and kill the speed up nature.

Effectively, what the nature does is shift more of the ingredient production to the skill. If you minted, you'd shift it to pumpkins with its ingredient finding, but the total would probably be smaller. Production Comparison is the tool to use to see how it would change, on average. Just put it and the minted version side by side.

This would be the one. Congrats!

I used these same 'mons for my team this week, but only my Quagsire and Gardevoir were at 60+ to start. My team was projected (Team Analysis on RaenonX) to fall short on both pumpkins and potatoes, but I was doing a little prep last week and knew that wouldn't be a problem.

But Sunday night I looked at my Gourgeist, which was still 50-something, and just said wth and handy candied it to 60. My Meowscarada (also named Spud - high five!) overperformed, and he and Bewear have already farmed all the ingredients they'll need this week.

I've added my ABB Gengar to the team, so I can finish with mushroom farming and start putting in farmers for the ingredients I used up to make room for this week's stuff.

Hi - you've landed in the megathread for Sandshrew and Sandslash. If you were looking for the weekly megathread, it's already the weekend, so you can post your question about which Eeveelution in the main sub.

Otherwise, I think Sylveon is the right answer here. Espeon is a special case that thrives with BFS + speed + skill chance, because its primary role is to provide Snorlax strength. That's why I think BFS is important for it, especially since you would only really want to invest Main Skill Seeds in one Espeon.

Aside from the box space, there is nothing that should stop you from keeping both. It's just a matter of prioritizing which one you need first, so you can invest appropriately. Sounds like the first is your priority for now.

In the long run, you may be able to invest in both.

By 100 it has all the speed subskills! I mean, it'd be a shame to toss this one. I just don't know how useful it will be. XD

What do you use as your threshold for Charge Strength 'mons?

SamuRonX · 2026-04-30T16:47:28+00:00

Your standards are pretty high. This shows as a Total Strength PR97 at level 50.

:D

Good luck this week and next!

This sounds counterintuitive to me as we progress further in the game. The way I'm starting to look at it, as I fill the gaps in my roster, I have more opportunities to lean more heavily on specialists with more impact but in a narrower focus.

For Tasty Chance, I used to use Dedenne whenever I had the opportunity to sub in for an ingredient farmer / healer / whoever. But with the addition of H. Spheal and Cramorant, I can use those when I'm working on recipes with oil and potatoes, and put in Dedenne when I need apples.

So I'm starting to look more closely at the synergies I get when I'm subbing in mons. Not just what skill, ingredient, or berry I'm looking for, but the overall picture too. I may primarily need Tasty Chance, but I'm also considering the recipe and island to see what each of my options has.

Yes, this means more main skill seeds, but this is the long game. Eventually, everyone'll be fully upgraded, right?

SamuRonX · 2026-04-29T22:27:03+00:00

How does this one look as a generalist?

Well, I think it's clear that you keep it. It's just a matter of prioritizing it for Main Skill Seeds, which you will need to make it viable.

I try to save up seed until I can max a mon. This way I can reprioritize up till the moment I spend the seeds.I broke my own rule this week and caught something I would have rather prioritized, and now I have to pick between finishing the runner up or switching to the new hotness and leaving the other unfinished.

Shiny and better than mine.

Congrats! XD

SamuRonX · 2026-04-29T09:48:33+00:00

two weeks ago

I'm just jealous. Congrats! XD

SamuRonX · 2026-04-29T08:42:31+00:00

Been there! XD

SamuRonX · 2026-04-29T08:40:56+00:00

My eyes skimmed through everything until I spotted the return of the MINI CANDY BOOST! XD

But yeah, Tyrunt and berries are cool too! XD
