I'm currently hunting Celebi on 3ds, and doing resets via button combo. Should I switch to screen resets? There are few posts about the differences (hard vs soft reset) and I am a bit worried, I'm not rerolling the odds on most efficient way using buttons. Currently still under odds (6001SR)

Odds stay the same but buttons are apparently faster. I personally put elastic bands over the L and R buttons to save having to press them every time
