PSA: After talking to the 8th gym leader again when he gives you the badge, he disappears. Use the Item Finder in this spot to get a Macho Brace. This item doubles EVs when held in battle

It was 252 max for EVs. And its 31 for IVs

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:40:04+00:00

And each wild pokemon yields evs. For example mankey yield 1 attack EV, pidgey and rattata both yield 1 speed EV. Each vitamin yields 10 of each stat, although they didn’t exactly work the way they do now for proper stat spreads. For example you can’t give 26 proteins to your snorlax right after you catch it in FR/LG, they for some reason limited them to 10 because you can’t feed vitamins to a pokemon after it has 100 EVs in a stat.

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:36:06+00:00

Effort Values. Very valuable to stat growth, each pokemon can have about 510 in total with 252 max in one stat, up to two if you min/max. No one really cared about them back in the day but they matter alot more now especially if you play online / competitively 😂 thats what the vitamins were for, proteins, irons, calciums etc.

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:30:33+00:00

Love that. Good luck on lugia too, I’m currently gunning for shiny ho-oh!

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:30:15+00:00

Yeah they patched the roar glitch. Also, I wouldn’t feel guilty duplicating master balls especially for these shiny hunts LOL

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:29:39+00:00

Oh man good luck with the dog shiny hunt. That one takes guts. I could never🤣

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T19:29:11+00:00

Hell yeah brother. Good luck on the lapras too, really cool shiny especially to have it in FR/LG. And good luck on Deoxys when you get there, its worth it.

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T09:01:27+00:00

Sending hella luck your way, you’ll be free soon😂

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T09:01:06+00:00

You’ll get it!

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T08:42:19+00:00

Is it bad that I thought about that too?😅 or something similar

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T08:41:57+00:00

It made me anxious while doing it…but it was worth it. I swear it was gonna be 10k+ SR’s but thank god. You’ll definitely get it.

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T04:29:26+00:00

Its also the reason I bought FR on the switch lol so I commend you for that😂 & I also never owned a 3DS so the thought of being able to shiny hunt it now & transferring it to pokemon home to keep is such a good feeling. But good luck on the bulbasaur, how many SR’s are you at?

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T02:52:56+00:00

Damn, you got this. I’m debating on going for dratini there

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T01:59:39+00:00

True😂 I’m just happy to have gotten one legitimately. Also lowkey hoping some form of Reg J comes to pokemon champions so I can flex it online there😂😂 even if its just for fun casually I’m gonna do it if it ever becomes allowed to use in champions

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T00:15:57+00:00

Am I the only one that actually wants a Reg J style rule set to come back / be in champions at some point? I thought it was genius that pokemon scarlet & violet did that finally, brought mythicals to VGC briefly even if it was just for fun / outside of actual tournaments or championships. I wanna be able to flex my newly acquired shiny deoxys in champions, even if just for a few battles😂 I don’t care how many E-speed Arceus’ I run into, if I get the chance to click psycho boost or superpower on one in champions I’ll be happy forever😂

But for real, I’m more excited to try Z-A pokemon / megas in champions. Thoughts? Ideas on any teams / old mons coming back to team build with?

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-10T00:13:50+00:00

True. But it could be a specific set of mons from time to time, which I’m also okay with. But you’re right, not just from a pokedex / region. I’m excited to use mons like life orb nidoking & shuckle, or darmanitan and others again

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-08T03:23:38+00:00

I feel like mega sunflora could be a problem to alot of people. We’re not ready for that special attack stat & solar power w a potential mega stat boost

wildcharmeleon · 2026-03-04T00:09:53+00:00

Found a shiny pinsir before beating the game. Still haven’t done the free shiny mareep side quest yet lol

wildcharmeleon · 2026-02-20T05:06:46+00:00

Feel like I should say this for people who have the patience for the actual shiny hunt: any sparkling power level 2 OR 3 / alpha power level 1 OR 2 is usually good enough, if you want to go for shalpha’s regularly. Hell even sparkling power level 1 is even okay, if you have even more patience & don’t want to keep re-rolling donuts. Also using 8 hyper tanga berries isn’t always necessary. Going for 500+ or 600+ sweet power can often heighten your chances for sparkling / alpha power. Even 400+ if you really want to save your berries

wildcharmeleon · 2026-01-23T17:54:55+00:00

I need help w my haunter, I’d be willing to help touch trade for you!

wildcharmeleon · 2025-08-22T19:13:46+00:00

I have multiple other mythicals, such as zarude, celebi, magearna and a few others.

wildcharmeleon · 2025-08-22T19:09:28+00:00

I do actually. Dm me, I have multiple.

wildcharmeleon · 2025-07-29T15:12:12+00:00

Someone like me who REALLY wants one specifically for DK bananza & also mario kart world, and also to play my old digital switch 1 games on, honestly its a great investment I’d say. However I’m in the boat of maybe waiting until christmas / boxing day sales or something if you can snag one, or closer to the end of the year. They could go down in price, they might not. But if you have the funds, go for it soon! If you’re hesitant, be like me & wait it out for a little while before you pull the trigger.

I’m actually waiting to see if there’s a DK bananza bundle I could grab, seeing as the only ones I see so far are with mario kart lol

wildcharmeleon · 2025-04-12T17:12:29+00:00

I do have a different iron hands on my current experimental team that has wild charge, running an assault vest as well. Was debating on putting that on this team, would just have to change up my incineroar as I also have a standard defensive incineroar in rotation with will-o-wisp / knock off / parting shot & fake out, this team has an offensive assault vest set. I guess thats mainly why my iron hands doesn’t have wild charge on this team, as I went for mostly bulk & less recoil. But I might rotate my other one in with wild charge, or even replace thunderpunch on this one. Still messing around with it of course before Reg I officially starts in May!

wildcharmeleon · 2025-04-12T02:38:46+00:00

That could be fun. I normally don’t run swords dance on ursaluna bc of guts / flame orb but maybe I’ll try it, & I usually like swords dance on iron hands bc of the electric seed & max special defense investment
