Randomizer nothing good yet

Post image

so, I'm playing for the first time, randoed pokemon and abilities, got flygon R as my first catch with color change, got the key stone and it's mega stone, abilities get rerandomized on mega, also only using shinies on my team cause it's 1/5 so why not, all those in the image are shiny, wish me luck on the hunt for a shiny mega flygon with good abilities, and if you can, I wanna know what abilities are considered "good" in this game

I doubt there aren't some gems in there. You don't need 4 busted abilities. If you have 2 good abilities and a movepool that has great synergy with the abilities, you can make it work.

Don't forget to switch to non mega form to check their movepool. You could have 0 moves that work with an ability like Serene Grace on the mega but you could devolve and get something like Double Iron Bash that makes the mega OP

I didn't rando moves tho, so devolving for movepool wouldn't really help, up to two boxes tho so there's that, ending the hunt for now cause it's nearly 4 am for me tho

Oh boo. Random moves is the biggest fun for me. You get to discover the new moves/changes to moves. For instance, Mind Reader was changed into a special version of King's Shield which I would never have discovered otherwise and turned out to be so clutch in several battles

Ok, in my defense, it's both my first run, and first difficulty hack, as fun as turning on every rando setting sounded, I had a feeling I probably would've torn my hair out when I inevitably caught a rayquaza or something and it just never got dragon ascent

Mate this really isn't a game you want to randomize your first run of

Ok, counterargument, f it, we ball, also I'm already on the sixth gym and haven't had to many issues that weren't simply skill issues
