Here is the serebii page if curious. You'll notice it carries more and harvest faster than like typhlosion, walrein, butterfree

#

Only mark is ingredients but ehhhhhh idc enough

grand gust
ripe shuttle
#

It's def fine

neat smelt
#

It's shiny but has only one silver skill >:

ripe shuttle
#

This will be fine I would rate like B as it. It needs a lot of seeds to realize its full potential. Good kit though.

If you actually seeded everything up it would be like an A+ squirtle the kit is right and a neutral nature. It just is a really big ask to give this thing 6 sub skill seeds over the course of it leveling it. If you don't mind the pet project though and not putting the seeds into other stuff then sure this has potential def

#

The 5 silvers hurt quite a bit ye

neat smelt

Thanks for your insight! I'll leave it on my team as an ingredient mon, but as a F2P pleb, I don't have an abundance of skill seeds unfortunately

Here’s I think my best 3, not sure if they’re any good tho

ripe shuttle
# sharp cargo

Best in slot nature.

Berry finder eventually.

I think this is a very good mankey. It is missing out on a helping speed skill and it will need a few seeds over the course of its lfe but I will take best in slot nature with no help speed skill over help speed skill and a meh nature. I'm gonna give this like an A. It kinda is a late bloomer since you get berry finder at level 75, the ingredient amounts are slight low rolls at level 30 and 60, and you only have small powerspikes at level 10 and 25. The kit itself is like S tier when it's completely maxed but you need 3-4 sub skill seeds and it needs to reach high levels to realize it which is kinda painful. it is hurt enough by the skill order and whites that I dropped it a letter grade despite being like a top 5% mankey kit wise.

ripe shuttle
# hollow ember Here’s I think my best 3, not sure if they’re any good tho

This is an S+ ratata.
It has the two best gold skills (and probably 2 best skills in general) in the entire game at level 10 and 25. On top of that it even gets the inventory up L immediately afterwards at level 50 so you can hold all the berries he collects off berry finder when you do your main sleep! Ingredient finder could be help speed M instead and the nature isn't ideal (we prefer help speed but it's still a good nature though not even a neutral one). These could have been bad skills for raticate like lmao skill trigger, skill level up, or the third inventory upgrade.The extra inventory up at level 100 is theoretically super impactful too when we reach that far in the game and your raticate has max frequency from leveling up. Two incredibly minor flaws that aren't even flaws they're just "could be something else that's nice but thank god they aren't bad skills". If i caught like 1000 rattata, i doubt I would find one better than this one. Maybe 1 or 2 equivalent ones at best. You giga high rolled.

#

Awesome skill learn order and awesome kit

hollow ember
#

Wait wut

ripe shuttle
#

Yah no you have a top percentage ratata lmao

hollow ember
#

I just like funny rat

#

Giving me apples

ripe shuttle
hollow ember
#

Didn’t know it was top tier lol

ripe shuttle
#

Basically you lmao

hollow ember
#

Is it better to wait to evolve it and unlock the sub skills?

ripe shuttle
#

I think you also high rolled the 4 ingredient drop at level 60

#

Level 30 being 2 ingredient drops is average though (it could 2-3 for level 30 and I think 2-4 for level 60 if I'm not mistaken for berry specialists)

#

Uh what level does it evolve

#

I would say go for 10 immediately definitely

hollow ember
#

Evolves at lv 15

#

Requires 40 candy

ripe shuttle
#

Yah gun it to like level 13 with investing candies and then start stockpiling to evolve

#

You should evolve first before pushing to 25 it gets a big frequency and capacity boost for evolving

hollow ember
#

Ok sounds good

#

Is that the case for most pokemon? Evolve asap?

ripe shuttle
#

Depends on when they evolve and what their next skill is but I'd say general rule of thumb is evolve them when they reach the levels they can evolve instead of gunning for the next skill

hollow ember
#

👍

ripe shuttle
#

Only exceptions would be like if they evolve at say level 23 but their level 25 skill is awesome or like if they evolve at level 28 but you really want to unlock the second ingredient slot at level 30

#

But stuff that evolves in the teens just evolve asap

hollow ember
#

Would you recommend me gunning to evolve my haunter?

#

Or should I focus on the rattata?

#

I only need like a handful more candy for the haunter

sharp cargo
ripe shuttle
#

Anyways, your pikachu is very good in the skill set with help speed and help bonus. It will be a gathering machine. Double ingredient finders kinda duds without an inventory up and the skill level up doesn't really matter at level 100 probably. I'd rank it A+ or S-. The first two skills will make it insane in the short term and it still will outperform like any filler you find for a long time. The help bonus being global makes it very good and raichu in general is one of the best berry specialists in the game so not upset with it at all and should be used long term.

Postive nature haunter, dream shard global is awesome. No complaints. Even has the skill trigger follow up and inventory up skills before eventually getting help speed lategame. it will need a few subskill seeds as the game progresses but it's decent. I believe you high rolled ingredient drops too. 5 at level 30 and 8 at level 60 are really high many pokemon will do like 4 and 6. I think it manages to work well with the two global helping bonus mons I just saw as well for midgame with those double inventory ups. I'll give it like an A+. You should invest in this and just rake in the free extra dream shards and ingredients and it's worth long term. If it started as gastly it would have been better and you would have preferred some slightly better kit than the skill trigger nature/level 25 skill but they're still good and this could be way way worse. It's a good haunter you should invest in.

hollow ember
#

I caught it as a haunter

#

Have like 60 candy in it rn

#

Needs 80

ripe shuttle
#

ye that's not a big deal. You will miss out on a little bit of capacity and a skill level when it becomes gengar BUT it has a really good kit

#

You keep him

hollow ember
#

Keep him as a haunter?

ripe shuttle
#

No i meant like keep him long term haha

hollow ember
#

Ohh

ripe shuttle
#

he will still perform better than a good majority of gastly's you find even though it is missing out on 1 set of evolution bonuses. Kit is just quite good

hollow ember
#

👍

ripe shuttle
#

Less work to evolve all the way etc. and being able to immediately contribute as gengar will pay massive dividends anyways for these early portions of the game

#

Okay i took my break. Time to go back to homework

hollow ember
#

Thanks for your analysis!

tepid yew
#

So berry specialist, ingredient finder x helping speed x skill chance x berry finding

ornate jolt
#

What evo should I evolve eevee too and should I invest in shiny bulb?

ripe shuttle
#

berry finding eevee!

#

Generally jolteon and flareon are the two best eeveelutions. Jolteon is basically electric arcanine while also being tied for fastest gather speed speed in the game and has a healthy inventory size in general for gathering a bunch of things.
Flareon increases your pot size like magnezone line and is basically interchangible with them. faster gathering but lower base capacity. The pot increase size is an incredibly good skill if you find yourself regularly hitting ingredient cap

grizzled basin
#

I guess eevee ?

ripe shuttle
#

I think I would like this eevee as a jolteon. Berry finder and inventory up synergize really well with jolteons high frequency and cap, but both are very good options if you think you can use the pot size thing from flareon you have the stuff you need for that to be optimal in main skill chance up nature and skill trigger. It's a very good eevee and I think I would rate it S tier. berry finder is one of the best skills in the game, you have a good nature, and the rest of the kit is very good you even get the eventual help speed M to make it gather even faster and it has a good learn order.

The bulbasaur is a bit filler imo. Really good skill list but the help speed down is kinda one of the worst natures. I think I'll give it a B+ since the skil list is actually steller and it works well with the up skill chance nature as well but the nature holds this back really badly. This could be an S tier bulbasaur if it just rolled help speed up nature instead so if mints come that's nice but as is it's just slightly above filler level in B+

#

sorry im still sleepy JirachiSleep

#

mid bulba or nah

ripe shuttle
#

Aghhhh speed of help down bulbasaur my nemesis. This is kinda fillerish sadly. I'd give it like C+ it's better than some filler cause the ingredient finding up nature and inventory up for big sleep but it needs way too many skill seeds to be good and the nature hurts it a fair bit

#

The global gold is one of the worse ones I believe (till we know more about energy at least)

#

even if it's technically really nice to have

iron yoke
#

# wind igloo

Neutral nature with lots of gold global effects (and thank god it's not energy recovery at level 10 or 25 lmao). Eventual help speed M at 50 and it looks like a medium/high roll for ingredient amounts they aren't the highest but they are like 1 under highest in both categories so well done there. I think this thing is pretty good! I'll give it like an A+, it really needs a good nature not a neutral one for me to want to rate it higher but the kit is nice. You don't drop this for awhile you use it basically just to support your meta progression for reasearch ranks and pokemon exp as you go into levels 10, 25, and beyond. I think you use this until you find a better global support pokemon which is probably awhile.

#

Better than majority of croagunks you find, much above filler category for sure. there are a lot of potential blegh croagunks out there

wind igloo
#

Thank you for the review! Yeah, global supp pokemon is a good way go put it. And agreed finding more will be rare!

#

I wonder if there will be reroll skill seeds later

rough pilot
#

how is this diglett? i feel like i rolled a bad nature given his skills

rough meadow
#

The nature's not a problem, it could actually be pretty good. But Digletts can theoretically get up to x8 ingredients at level 60

#

although x5 at 30 is pretty good

#

I think ultimately I'd call this one fairly average

rough pilot
#

i see i see, thanks thumbsupchu

ripe shuttle
#

Yah I don't mind the nature but it immediately fights with the level 10 and 25 skill haha

#

it's decent but kinda filler E3 hit it on the head. I'd say it's like upper filler in the C+ or B- range though the ingredient unlock at 30 is impressive af even if the kit isn't

rough pilot
ripe shuttle
#

ye ye. Still a better than average filler mon for the above reasons but it's not one of the greats

You use it for fave berry week for sure still

BERRY FINDER.
Speed of help down....
difficult to rate but you probably keep this guy for the globals. Research exp is good, the energy global is okay, and berry finder is a really strong skill and you have the inventory up at 75 to boot. I think the nature and learn order really scuffs this squirtle though. I think I'll rate it in like B+ just because of the potential long term benefits of berry finder/inventory L and the flood of globals this pokemon has but it will be a super slog to level 50 and 75. You will likely find a better global mon before then, and there is an okay chance you find a better berry finder mon. Long term kit it's probably like A+ but the slog to get there will be unpleasant imo. Level 50 is pretty far away and it's just slightly better than filler before then but globals help some at least.

#

This is definitely one of the trickier mons to evaluate so don't take what I say as gospel I am not confident in rating this one. It has a lot of strong and potential bad points both.

#

If we get nature mints this will be poggers S tier but we don't have them and no guarantee they will come ever but if you want to hold onto that dream I'd keep it in the box just in case. Not worth releasing it's still better than filler stuff and has potential if we can change natures for sure

grand bough

Thank you for explaining your rationale for everything, it's ridiculously helpful. blob_love

#

Well caught 6 today but all look mehBrookek

ripe shuttle
#

The psyduck is really good for a psyduck the nature is help speed up which is best and you high rolled the ingredients you find too with 4 at level 30 and 4 at level 60 (psyduck isn't an ingredient specialist I think these are like the high end of values). It'll perform pretty well 🙂 psyduck line is eh but this is good for a psyduck. You def pull him out on favored berry week. A+ tier.

Berry finding ekans at level 10 is a steller find. Best skill in the game and the nature is good too. Ekans skill is bad so the skill chance down really isn't bad at all. I'm sad about all the skill based subskills but I don't think it is that big of a deal since you get berry finder at 10 and it will hard carry you. A tier imo cause it hurts on all the other subskills but like berry finder good and you 100% keep this long term for chesto berry favored weeks cause of that. I wouldn't worry about wasting skill seeds on it though.

This is like a pretty fine mankey. Ingredient down is whatever on berry specialists if they don't have other ingredient skils. Skill trigger and inventory are fine but little sad they are smalls. energy recovery is fine. Berry finding and help speed M being at level 75 and 100 are insane but like lmao how lategame that is. I think it's def good to use though don't mulch him. If you actually get him to those late levels I think the kit is like S- but as is right now he is like B+.

#

The other ones I didn't mention are all just filler mons

#

You might whip out on favored week but you don't care about them probs

#

You might use the caterpie just cause caterpie. butterfree's are goated even the totally average ones ftr the species slaps hard.

#

It's skills are like fine long term to good it's just meh nature but honestly yah use the caterpie too. Someone needs to be the 4th or 5th best caterpie for a 5 butterfree team and this is that man xD

grave dragon
#

Thanks so much for sharing!

#

Also do you have any suggestions on how to level up quicker?

ripe shuttle
#

Handy candies are really good. If you are hesitant to get the skill seeds (or don't have premium) they are worth it imo

obsidian vortex
#

Lvl up what ? Mons ? Research rank ?

ripe shuttle
#

Otherwise just use the species you want to level

#

Like if you want to level up the ekans I would use the ekans and the arbok on the squad at the same time and use the candies you get to level up and evolve the ekans

grave dragon
#

Mons

obsidian vortex
#

Candies and letting your friends know that you want to lvl up a special pokemon

ripe shuttle
#

If you haven't used handy candies before you might even have some in your inventory right now 🙂 just check the bag. They're really intuitive to use. Handy candy S gives 3 per and handy candy M gives 20 per

ripe shuttle
#

And consider buying them from shop but you have to weigh your option versus the premium shop seeds (poggers if you can buy both though)

grave dragon

#

Ye. Your call

It's worth 20 candies. It's fair to buy it or save points.

#

@ripe shuttle do you also recommend to stick with one helper team along the way cuz I only can sleep once per day?

#

The helper team of the Pokémons I want to level up

obsidian vortex
#

If your helper team has no energy you can put new pokemons to farm, then put your OG team back before sleeping, ect

#

Most of the time you'll keep the berry team the 6 first days, and farm ingrédients on sunday

(Having an ingrédient spécialist in your OG team rly help also)

The best berry mons you can have this week
For me I had 3 metapods with 2x fav berries and 1 pichu with berry finder + 1 squirtle for ingrédients

@grave dragon

If you need to sleep with a pokemon to evolve him (ex : pichu, eevee) , then switch your ingrédients spe and pit a new one when he's tired

#

obsidian vortex
#

If we talk about points its ranked like this
Berry spe + Fav berries mon lvl 10 = 35 x 2 x 2 = 140
Berry spe + Non fav ber + berry finder S = 35 x 3 = 105
Not berry spe + Fav berrie = 35x2 = 70
Not fav + berry spe = 35x2 = 70
Not fav + not berry spe = 35

(If every pokemon is same lvl and same natures ofc, a mon with help speed up will be better overtime) @grave dragon

@obsidian vortex any suggestions on the berry team?

Then grind ingredients

This guy is the nuts imo. Help speed is an immensely useful nature. Main skill chance down is bad but I would take it over neutral nature still. Charizard line harvests REALLY fast so we welcome the inventory space. Skill level up is nice even with the skill chance down nature. More inventory up just to really slam home maximum overnight gathering potential and then we eventually get the additional help speed we need at 75 and the skill trigger to finally offset the slightly not perfect nature at 100. I think this is an A+ charmander and it will absolutely slay once it evolves and has a partner on the team with the global help speed bonus. Very good mander.

#

It's obviously not perfect but zard is amazing as a mon and you have a very above average skill set for a help speed positive nature.

#

Only 3 ways you could would improve it is make help speed happen at 50 instead and trade the skill level up for berry finder as well as slightly optomize nature

#

I'd be hard pressed to find a charmander like that it would be a 1 in a million find

rough meadow
ripe shuttle
#

That is average no?

#

Couldn't it be as low as 5 and as high as 8?

rough meadow
#

Yeah

#

Like I said, below cap

#

It's definitely a very good charmander, nevertheless

ripe shuttle
#

4 at 30 and 6 at 60 is pretty much the average

#

ye ye it is below cap technically but it's not a low roll

rough meadow
#

No, it's pretty S-tier

ripe shuttle
#

I try to be frugal with my S tiers so I say A+, but someone could convince me S- 100%

I wouldn't complain really

I would love to see the ingredients for these two as well 🙂

#

The Bulbasaur in particular looks very promising tho

#

Do help speed bonuses stack additively or multiplicatively 🤔

ripe shuttle
#

The bulbasaur before I see ingredients is already like an S+ tier to me. Double skill positives is nice with ingredient magnet followed by berry finder, inventory up, and help speed is absolutely nutty.

rough meadow
#

cause if it's additive, you could theoretically highroll some actual freak shit

crude crystal
ripe shuttle

#

What're the quantities at 30 and 60?

ripe shuttle

#

Idc what the amounts are, this bulbasaur is definitely S+ tier. IF it so happens to highroll ingredient amounts as well it's an easy SSS tier and best mon I have seen here ever

100 * (1-(0.1+0.1) as opposed to 100*0.9*0.9

Oh shit. That bulbasaur almost had the 5, 8

this bulbasuar is definitely the best mon I have seen in here though SSS still i think. 1 ingredient off and the rest is 100% perfect kit is insane

They were 2* and have better skills than the 1* pokemon that I got

rough meadow
#

I believe in the legend of the x4 slowpoke tail

#

It'll descend upon us one day

ripe shuttle
#

I guess this pokemon MIGHT suffer with the skill level up if I am being unreasonably picky since we don't know if that makes skills go over cap.

In practice though that doesn't matter the slightest. It just means you only need 1 main skill up seed for this to cap it's main skill after fully evolving

#

If it makes skills go over cap it's nuttier than i give it credit for and if it doesn't it just saves you probably a months worth of seeds which is still wonderful

crude crystal
#

Over cap? I thought the max was lvl 6

#

1+1+2+1+1

rough meadow
#

We don't know if subskill-based main skill inreases can break cap yet or not

ripe shuttle
#

Mankey is nice too I'm going to give it like an A+ or S- cause it has best in slot nature and pretty good skill list but it needs quite a few sub skill seeds and the learn order is slightly funky, help speed would have ideally come in before level 75 lol. It's very good though. Like if we fully kit it out it's an S- tier it just has slightly funky progression so I put A+.

#

Progression is still good, it just COULD be better

#

Thank you, I was not getting decent mons lastly so im glad I got these

I hope they makes events and eventually give is more pokemon to look for so there could be more reasons for keep playing

rough pilot
#

decent charmander? it has neutral nature

ripe shuttle
#

Slightly filler but it doesn't have bad nature. I'd give it like B- because it needs a lot of subskill seeds and the kit/nature is super generic. That said though a B- charmander is like... better than half the mons you'll find it's a very good pokemon the species itself is great with high capacity/frequency and decent ingredients.

#

Like it's an average A tier pokemon which makes it better than average B tier pokemon or even good C tier pokemon

#

So use it 🙂

rough pilot
#

hah alrighty thumbsupchu
i feel like a lot of my mons are this way, decent but not great oof

ripe shuttle
#

I'll put it this way. If you don't find better pokemon there is ZERO issue with evolving this guy it will carry your ass cause zard zoooooooooom! Especially on favored berry week.

#

And even if you find a better zard down the line you can just run 2!

#

It's like low oppurtunity cost investment since you could just double zard on leppa week too

The nature seems like it holds it back

ripe shuttle
# storm rain

Top tier nature, has the synergy with skill trigger way down the line which is nice and the ingredient finder/help speed are very impactful. You need want a sub skill seed at level 10, but I'd rate this at A+. Learn order is slightly wonky like not getting capacity till 100 and the help speed M coming at 50 instead of 25 but it's really solid. Might be worth an S- or even S tier but I think the need for sub skill seeds in the long run slightly hold me back from giving it an S rating I'm comfortable with A+ though. You also rolled dead in the middle of the road for ingredient amounts at 4 and 6.

ripe shuttle
# hallow steeple The nature seems like it holds it back

Imo down skill chance is really whatever for these random charge strength mons even if it's not ideal. Like assigning arbitrary points, i would rate skill chance down at like -1, ingredient down at like -1 or 2 depending on mon, and help speed down at like -3 points. ANYWAYS let me look at this guy.

3 gold skills nice. SLEEP EXP BONUS which is super nice. This at level 10 i think you just slam and never look back. Follow that up with research exp bonus at 25 makes it just pretty nutty global support and then double help speed and berry finder is the goat. I actually think this thing ironically suffers from the second help speed and would have preffered an inventory up L so it could hold all the berry finder berries. That said though you use this. I'll give it an A+ or S- rating. The short term is great, it actually probably gains exp very fast and will likely overlevel and stay up even without investment because of the passive and exp up nature, and if you do get it to last long term and you evolve it and everything you have some goated payoffs lategame in the help speed and berry finding department. It's not perfect, but it's like kinda damn good still

#

If i only look at level 10 and nothing else I would rate it S 👀, level 25 I would still rate it S

use it

Caught my first eevee today and I think it's decent?
While I try to find more, is it good as a sylveon later on or its unknown?

ripe shuttle
ripe shuttle
#

Ingredient finder whatever but if the ingredient list is really good it gets juicier

ancient minnow
#

not that special tbh lol

#

in terms of amount of ingredents. just useful for this week's berry at least

ripe shuttle
#

I think with the double inventory up jolteon abuses this set best. It has really fast frequency and the skill trigger set is still top tier on it. I'm mostly saying this for long term cause I think it uses those lategame inventory ups the best.

Ingredients aren't "special" but you got good amounts for a skill specialist. 2 is average at level 30 but 4 is I think highest it could be at level 60 which is good

#

All the eeveelutions like the skill trigger set so it's really up to you though

ancient minnow
#

does the main skill pass over to the evolved pokemon?

ripe shuttle
#

No

ancient minnow
#

ahh is there a list of what it can become?

ripe shuttle
#

Each eeveelution has a unique skill. Only pokemon in the game that does it

#

You'd have to manually check serebiii buttttt

ancient minnow
#

ya, i thought it might change thats why i ain't too sure what to involve it into

#

well in the future anyway

ripe shuttle
#

?spkmn eevee

soft nymphBOT
ripe shuttle
#

Oh actually, this might make a goated espeon

#

Espeon is still in the fast frequency tier but it is tied for best charge strength skill in the game and is the only good psychic pokemon right now (lmao wobbufet)

#

As long as you do one of the mons in yes and not any of the ones in No, you will get good results doesn't matter which

ancient minnow
#

wouldn't mind the espeon 😄

ripe shuttle
#

If you like sylv go for it. It's a glorified wigglytuff so we have no idea how good it is actually.

#

Ye espeon is basically a sidegrade to ampharos line

#

And both goated

ancient minnow
#

ya, i'll wait for some more info about sylveon but jolteon and espeon is the one i think i would go

ripe shuttle
#

Just so you have an idea on how espeons skill scales with main skill level

#

And I've heard that the charge strength boost is affected by the island weekly boost which is weird but cool

ripe shuttle
ancient minnow
ripe shuttle
#

Uh it's the thing where you get a boost for using an island multiple times. We got 5% for our first week so I would only assume it goes 10, 15, 20% etc. But I have no idea for sure

#

It goes up every time we use the island though

ancient minnow
#

ahhh got it

#

i didn't know that has an impact, does it impact all skills?

ripe shuttle
#

I think the boost affects all points that go into snorlax from berries to meals to charge strength skills

#

It's pretty vague and we didn't hard look at it yet but from what I have seen that's the case

#

Anyways gl this week

ancient minnow
#

ya, i didn't pay too much attention to the boost tbh

#

just want to start evolving and get to lvl 10 asap haha

Anyone mind rating between these two togepi?

#

2nd one is better for egg drop rate but both are not really good as togepis main skill is unpredictable

nova mulch
#

I love metronome

left walrus
#

Thanks

ripe shuttle
# left walrus Anyone mind rating between these two togepi?

If I'm rating them as togepis, this first one is an A+ tier togepi. There is no skill trigger in the first two levels, BUT you have the skill chance nature and it's later down the line. More importantly though it has inventory up and helping bonus. Once you actually get to 25 it and everything else collects a lot faster and it becomes quite awesome. Level 50 is decent but not WOW but the 75 and 100 are steller. Especially level 100. If i were to rate it at different stages of the game it would be like

Level 10: B tier good nature and slightly helpful skill but whatever it's togepi.

Level 25: A Tier, has helping bonus one of the best skills in game

Level 50: B+ it just a helping bonus bot but has some random other perks that are nice

Level 75: A- Gets the skill trigger it wants so back up the list it goes some but metronome is still whatever.

Level 100: S tier with berry bonus and seeding up the inventory up this thing is actually the nuts at full kit but lmao level 100

#

I thought too much about this

#

Anyways togepi line bad but I'd say this is good for togepi

#

and brain farted

#

I go switch islands now

left walrus
#

Lol

#

Thank you for your time

ripe shuttle
#

Other togepi immediately more helpful at level 10 and then worse the rest of the way by a little at all the other spikes like B+

left walrus
#

So togepis not the greatest?

#

Would you mind if I sent a bunch of screenshots showing all my Pokémon and can you tell me which ones are the best?

celest lava
left walrus
#

Fair lmao

ripe shuttle
# left walrus So togepis not the greatest?

Togepi is fine and i think it's the best fairy pokemon. It's just the random skill paired with skill specialist is undesireable so it's not viewed too fondly by many people. Once it becomes togekiss though it does technically have good frequency and capacity as well as eggs (which is somewhat rare to get as an ingredient). It's just not very popular though why run it over a berry specialist or ingredient specialist. If you can find one with berry finder though it is the nuts (preferably not at level 100 but beggers can't be choosers lol). I think it's actually probably pretty decent but the inconsistency is a turn off

left walrus
#

I see

ripe shuttle
#

I'll look at the pokemon in a bit. I want to get my pokemon sleep going and then I'll sift through and pick out any notable pokemon that stand out before I lay down (and you can assume the ones I don't mention are kinda filler. Run them if they match but dump them if they don't)

left walrus

Ok

#

Thank you very much

ripe shuttle

cacao kinda rare too tbh

#

eevee line has it but cacao is a good ingredient without much of an ingredient specialist to get it

@ripe shuttle What's the rating on this one? Cleans the beach. Must be an upstanding citizen. Should be SS tier since for shiny shimmering. I like it's sprites when you first see him

obsidian vortex
#

that a lot of monoi and that explain the colour of his skin
I would say F cause he uses all the ingredients he gather for his sunbathe

celest lava
#

instead of giving it to me he's been chugging it down himself

#

I think he's sunburnt since its the beach should have used a higher spf instead of oil now he's shiny (pun intended)

he has been bleached

This any good? Befriended as a sudowoodo

#

goated instant level 10 for me

ripe shuttle
# left walrus

Pretty outstanding pikachu. Help speed nature top tier, inventory up L actually goated for long term and short term it still has some nutty big sleep berry shenanigans. Skill trigger S whatever but help speed at 50 and dream shard at 100 great. I'll give him a solid A. Will be awesome.

Actually don't mind the squirtle too much even though ingredient down nature isn't ideal. Speed of help offsets it kinda which is fun. Probably just B+ though. Kinda a bit all over the place with kit/nature. Still though B+ squirtle is a good pokemon overall squirtle line is great.

B+ caterpie the nature is whatever and skill lsit is good/fine but all over the place. We like dream shard at level 25 though. Someone needs to be butterfree #3-#4 in the five butterfree dream team and this is that guy. Butterfree great species so same reasoning as squirtle above.

So this riolu is filler before level 75 and really good afterwards afterwards. Level 1-49 is C tier. Level 50-74 is B tier if you skill seed. Level 75+ is like S- tier. I think it's not worth the investment but don't mulch him. Maybe you will have 1000 lucario candies down the road and can nearly get this guy to level 75 off candy alone and finally realize his berry finder potential lol it's kinda shit before then though.

B tier Mareep. You get skill trigger by 25 which is mandatory for mareep and we don't mind inventory L that much. It's pretty generic though and no reason this has two inventory ups long term. It will be good though and like use it if you feel like you need good pokemon. The species itself is steller and this has the mandatory skill.

Really good skill list is wonderful on the igglybuff but the nature kills it I think. C+.

I dislike the helping speed down here as well but ingredient up is nice compensation at least and then ingredient finder at level 10 too. I don't think this is good though. Help speed S at 25 does offset the nature though ig. C- tier geodude.

#

:p

celest lava
#

just for that subs kill alone

hollow ember
#

Also got this mareep

celest lava
#

skip on mareep

ripe shuttle
# hollow ember This any good? Befriended as a sudowoodo

So like it's a bad standard sudowoodo kit with skill chance down nature and no skill triggers so I don't think it's optimal woodo BUT it has a lot going for it and I think I would rate it as an A tier woodo actually. Help speed helps sudowoodo out of its rut, level 10 is amazing global, level 25 actually kinda relevant and so is the 50. If you keep this till level 75 you get double global passives and their good. I think it needed inventory up M or L in the level 50 slot though to actually be the nuts for this version of a woodo.

You level this guy up to ten and he carries your ass for awhile but you will drop him somewhere between level 20-50. He will be goated early though cause of his level 10. He has 10 capacity and no way to ever outgrow that and it really sucks when we eventually get like stage 3 pokemon with 20-31 capacity

#

So use him till you start evolving a bunch of stuff pretty much

ripe shuttle
# hollow ember

Kit looks good for skill chance up mareep but the main skill chance really hurts. If I had to place I'd give it a B. Still does ampharos things but it will be notably worse than other ampharos at gathering.

Opinions on this bulba?

ripe shuttle
# plush badge Opinions on this bulba?

Speed of help down is usually a death sentence BUT i think he overcomes it somewhat enough to be considered useful. The skill level up and skill trigger help him really just real in stupid amounts of ingredients which is grand and the ingredient up nature means even though he will gather slow the extra ingredient chance when he does gather is very nice. The inventory up L will probably not be useful when he hits 50, the down speed nature hurts here especially but the help speed S at 75 (with a skill speed) offsets the nature and even make you go positive movespeed. It probably would be about when you would consider replacing this bulb too would be my guess which is awesome. Additional skill trigger at level 100 really seals the deal.

I'm gonna say A+ despite having such a horrendous nature. If we get mints ever this guy probably is the best candidate for it, you could bump him up to like an S+ on my scale with help speed up nature or skill chance up nature and fixing the negative to something that doesn't matter.

Just to note, because he can evolve twice and has skill level up M he is one main seed off from having ingredient magnet level 6 when it becomes venusaur. This is insane in that regard

#

Without a mainskill seed that's 17 ingredients a pop and with one mainskill seed that's 21 a pop. Ridiculous

You don't know how many players I've seen in here with "oh this would bis but kinda really hecking sucks cause nature is so bad" lmao

#

Idk if I was generous today or what but I think the bulbasaur is scuffed in a way that doesn't actually hurt what the kit wants to do with ingredient magnet sooooooo shrug

plush badge
#

Last poké check from me for today, I am quite curious about my shiny girl:

hollow ember
#

Interesting looking absol

ripe shuttle
#

Speed of help exp down is bis nature so good start

inventory is fine, ingredient finder is fine, skill trigger great, helping speed great, other skill trigger greaterer.

I'm gonna say A or A+ cause despite the fact that is has the best nature it could have, the learn order is a little funky and it's a lot of white skills. THAT SAID if you pump sub skill seeds into this it will be pretty legit. Getting that to inventory L, ingredient finder M, and help speed M makes it an S tier pokemon. The level 10 spike is fine, 25 kinda duddy until you hit level 30 and unlock the 2X honey. Rest of the levels all really spike though.

#

Like at fully kited it is S or S+. Not fully kited I feel like A. It's an investment project with sub seeds if willing to invest like 3-4 of them

plush badge
#

I guess it's worth the effort since it's a shiny with the best nature and mints are still a big "❓"

ripe shuttle
#

I think you high rolled ingredient amounts for a berry specialist with 2 and 4 at level 30 and 60 but idk i am still learning the ingredient ranges some

#

I know I would force this if it was mine and give it all the subskill seeds, and I would regret it 0. It is not bad before investment anyways

ocean hull
#

Ingredient ranges are, in order from starting to lv60:
Non-specialist: 1, 1-3, 2-5
Specialist: 2, 2-5, 3-8
It seems single stage mons can have an unusually high ingredient count at lv30, even greater than the above ranges. Will update once more info's gathered on this phenomenon

ripe shuttle
#

I am pretty confident with the first set at least for berry specialists. Dunno if skill specialists have a different set.

I think it is right for ingredient specielists too. Idr if I have seen a 2X at level 30 though

ripe shuttle
#

I'm gonna pin that for MY sanity and to reference lmao

ocean hull
#

Nvm lv60 can go up to 5 without. I'm checking against the mons shared here

#

Can't find a 6 for specialist lv30 so I'm assuming max is 5

ripe shuttle
#

5x sounds right

#

I don't remember here or anywhere else holding a 6x at 30

#

6x at 30 would actually be kinda nutty huh.

#

Are we certain non specialists can highroll a 3x ingredient at level 30?

#

I thought the highest is 2

#

but i wasn't looking hard at them before

ocean hull
#

Yeah I've seen several in here with that

ripe shuttle
#

Nutty. Good to know. 3/5 and 5/8 are the high rolls bb

got damn fast slowbro I mean fastbro

shy pawn
#

(ok my cyndaquil wasn't exactly "mid", my first helping bonus, just gonna take a while to bloom)

ripe shuttle
# hallow steeple I’m curious about these

Highroll level 30 ingredient is fire and caccao is high value. x5 caccao is insane at this level. Level 60 slightly below average but like overall great ingredients on the turtle.
We like skill level up a lot. Ingredient magnet scales well with skill level up and you will at be at level 4 ingredient finding by the time this is blastoise. Inventory ups are probably really nice with the 5x caccao drops so you can hold all the chocolate. Goated AF for your main sleep. Kinda whatever if you are gathering throughout the day. Capstone of Helping bonus is just icing. I'm giving this an S-. It needs a better nature and could have had a better level 60 ingredient amount but these are very small nitpicks. It also is only slightly above average until level 30. once you hit 30 though it's off to the races this will be a good af blastoise.

#

Rattata speed of help bis nature. Nearly perfect high roll on ingredients for a berry specialist too is awesome. We love an inventory up L, skill level up is pretty much dud on rattata line but is like fine. Ingredient finder actually is pretty great at level 50 and 75 with the good ingredient rolls, and helping bonus capstone is fire. S tier rattata it strikes a really nice balance on ingredients being mixed into its gathering once you get lategame but even before then it will be getting you MOUNDS of berries on your big sleep days after it hits level 10. It has 1 dud skill and rest of the kit is steller. Very clean. If that skill level up was a help speed M and you had a x4 level 60 ingredient it would be a perfect rattata probably no joke.

#

Helping speed AND helping bonus slowbro? This is the fastest slowpoke of all time. Low roll in ingredients at high levels BUT they are tails which is more important than anything else so good here. Ingredient finder nature down not ideal with the tails but still is fine. triple inventory ups is lmao I think 2 would have been fine but.... this slowbro do be gathering and that ingredient finder in the skill set helps offset things a lot and you "might" use all this space especially if there is other helping bonuses on your team. I think with how immediately powerful this is and the lucky double tail I can't give this below S-. It has a lot of improvement, but like you hit multiple high rolls already that put it far above many slowbro's and slowpokes we take this and we run with the wind.

i had no idea caccao was high value, i got a chikorita today that has x1 caccao-x2 caccao- x5 honey so that seems good! hopefully i get more squirtle candies soon to start working on him. thanks for all the help, its incredibly useful! i guess where i struggle is knowing how to make the most efficient teams

ripe shuttle
#

Ye! Are you sure the honey is x5?

#

If so you highrolled that super hard

#

2-5 is the range for ingredients at level 60 for non ingredient specialists

hallow steeple
ripe shuttle
#

ye the range for level 30 is 1-3 so you got the average and her best ingredient to boot

#

and then giga high rolled honey amount

#

There's a couple really good dishes lategame that will need like 12-20 honey

#

so it has a really solid ingredient setup long term

hallow steeple
#

im glad shes got some good ingrediants, i like chikorita and would like to be able to use her

ripe shuttle
#

ye. You oddly got like a really good ingredient chikorita lmao with the inventory up two ingredient finders. Lategame when you have a meganium it will have massive capacity and you'll just swim in honey and chocalate and a bunch of berries

What's the deal with desserts? I'm desserts/drinks this week, and it's my first time with both

ripe shuttle
#

average level 30 ingredient and slight high roll on the level 60 so prospects look good there. Apples a little sussy but lot of apples nice.

Skill trigger fire with the ingredient magnet. pokemon mon. We take that. Inventory up is nice as well at 25 so you can start holding the honeys you'll be getting at level 30. Rest of the kit going up seems steller too at each stage.

Top tier slakoth. i think rolling tomatos or honey at level 60 is ideal but WHATEVER honestly. Top tier S- or S or something. it's very good

ripe shuttle
# hallow steeple its dessert

ye. You will be able to make the milk and apple dish easily then and have no problems on the pot AND there is a chance you might be able to make some of the really good chocolate dishes depending on your ingredient magnet rolls 🙂

rough meadow
#

am I insane or is it better to stop evolving at Vigoroth instead of Slaking? It has a 10 minute faster frequency...

ripe shuttle
#

Evolving increases your main skill chance by 1 level AND gives you +5 capacity

#

You probably put off evolving it for a bit but you should evolve it at some point I am pretty confident. Let me double check though

rough meadow

Okay

#

anyway, very happy to get a good roll on a shiny

#

my other shiny so far was a pretty decent roll too tbh?

ripe shuttle
#

Yah you want to evolve imo. 9 carry limit (14 after evolving from slakoth) is really bad for a stage 2. If you get it to slacking you'll have 22 carry capacity and a level 3 ingredient magnet instead of a level 2

Good points

ripe shuttle

Middle of the road ingredients but we actually really like eggs. Eggs are kinda hard to come by not a lot of good mons have them.

Double inventory up is slight overkill but we like him. pancake should be fire if you have like two global help bonuses to help it reach capacity

#

I'd give it like an A still the kit is a bit all over the place without consistency and do nothing nature but the actual skills themselves are all high rolls and the ingredients aren't bad.

Primeape low rolled ingredient amounts BUT high rolled which ingredients it got

It's gotta be a highroll

Skill set is really good. I think it has a bit too much skill trigger for my liking instead of like helping speed but I still would rate it like S-

#

mmmm berry finder

#

Actually nah you're right

rough meadow
#

pretty rare berry type too

ripe shuttle
#

It's S tier. Even though it has low mushorooms they're still best ingredient and in a way lower mushrooms isn't that big of a deal cause you're just filling it with berries anyways.

#

I think slight ingredient low roll, not starting as mankey, and slightly awkward skills with skill trigger/skill level make me not want to give it S+. That said this is likely your best pokemon till evolve everything else lmao

#

Like until you get charizards and typhlosions this is probably best pokemon you will find

#

and useable after that it's top tier for a primeape still

rough meadow
#

Yeah shame the triple berry doesn't kick in till 75 but

#

This thing will always be relevant

ripe shuttle
#

Slight high roll for level 30 and low roll for level 60 ingredients on the bellsprout.

Skill setup is goated and like only missing a help bonus global so easy S tier bellsprout

#

Maybe S- i think the ingredients at 60 looking bad long term but I think its ass will be carried by the skill set hard enough

#

And S+ before that anywho

grand gust
#

Ideally those ingredients/skill up skills can be helping speed but it is what it is

crude crystal
# grand gust Found some interesting mons, especially the primeape, any good?

I think your bellsprout is really good, maybe S because their subskills match what it will do. Monke does look decent enough right now but in the future it will be really strong, maybe god tier. Both have what could be the best or one of the best natures in the game, that helps them to get more ingredients and berries and the con does not make so much to them.

rough meadow
#

@ripe shuttle so for my shiny pikachu vs. that pichu earlier, do you think either is worth the invest 🤔

ripe shuttle
#

Above average ingredient rolls on chikorita

#

I dislike the level 10, love th level 25, and the rest are whatever meta currency global skills so I think i give it an A- or A ranking

#

Chikoritas in general really good and you have a mostly good chikorita but the down ingredient nature kinda hurt (honey/caccao farming is awesome) but it's like patched by the level 10 and as you scale lategame it should be really good

#

just like fights its nature and the globals don't make the mon better but like meta currency is meta currency

grand gust
#

About that

#

Ingredient part

#

Check out the sleep posting thread, just posted the sudowoodo

#

They might really be dependent

#

Saying it might really be advantageous to have ingredient down for berry mons

ripe shuttle

High rolled ingredients and the ingredient finder before level 30 is awesome. The skill trigger at 25 is a dead slot and same at 50. It pulls itself together really well lategame. I'll give it like an overall of A. It will destroy for awhile with 5x ginger even if with 2 dead skills and the lategame is patched by berry finder/inventory up and another high roll in 8 sausages

#

A seems fair since it has so much more potential but I think the insane ingredient rolls salvage this hard

#

It would have been pretty bad otherwise honestly

Helping speed up at 100...

If this thing's skills came in the reverse order it'd be like A+, but in the order they are it's more like A-? Still good enough to use though I think

Maybe B+ from how skll-focused it is idk

High roll on level 30 ingredient and slight low roll on level 60 but overall positive.

Positive nature and the skill trigger level 10 is nice. Not what is preffered (we like help speed) ut still nice. Inventory up at 25 before getting to 30 so you can hold all the extra ginger is awesome. Second inventory up is a ? but then you suddenly get berry gatherer so like..... wow. You are actually filling up your inventory L and M pretty effectively between good ingredient rolls and the berry finder so holy shit. Even capstone it off with help speed M. I think this is really good. If the help speed swapped with the skill trigger for learn order and the nature was help speed you probably would be looking at an almost perfect houndour. i think as it is it is an S or S- houndour but I think S tier. You like randomly jackpot with the berry finder, good ingredient rolls, and double inventory. This mon is BEGGING you for a help speed global mon on the team though find that asap so it can function. if you do that though this thing should be monstrous

#

I could be overevaluating

Its short term is just a little bit above average but its get the ball rolling nicely at 30 and really hard t5

# loud pawn How's this Primeape? Seems like my first investable pokemon :)

Okay last one and then bed. You asked nicely.

Medium roll level 30 ingredients and slight high roll level 60. Triple sausage which is better than honey but worse than mushrooms so super average to slightly positive ingredient setup.

Inventory up M is nice for when it hits level 30 and could matter on good camp weeks. This mon kinda needed an inventory up since it started as a primeape and not a mankey and we hit that so yay. Top tier skill at level 25 we love to see it going into bean sausage city at level 30. Level 50 whatever global blank slot but is positive. Not really much you could ask here besides a better global or learning ingredient finder. We get the ingredient finder anyways at level 75 to just really hammer home bean sausage city. Finally sleep exp bonus a bit late at level 100 lmao but i guess you could level up your other not 100's easier when you get to this point idk. Overall I want to give this an A+. There are a lot of things this could have done better, but also like this is a super coherent and really good primeape. It's like S+ tier all the way from 1-49 and then it slowly loses wind at the really late stages but still will have an above average kit 🙂

I think this guy is bad because of its nature and strange kit just making sure

smoky crescent
#

Is this eevee any goood?

crude crystal
#

Yes

#

But a bad nature

#

Still good enough because of the subskills and because you can chose the evolution, and each eevolution have a different subskill

smoky crescent
#

Thanks! Which evolution do you think would suit it best?

crude crystal
#

I would say that its A but because of the nature

#

Helping speed is really good because you get ingredients and berries faster, but at least it unlocks Helping Bonus at lvl 10 wich gives helping speed to the team so that is good. Also its a skill based pikemon with a nature that increases skill chances on a pokemon that when you evolve it you can get the skill that you want and that is awesome.

#

Maybe its a S-, the other subkills looks good too

Sorry, I don't mean to spam but I just wanna learn this with some added input:

#

As far as I can tell, I'm thinking the caterpie is decent with 4 silver sub skills

#

I don't like my cubone even though it has some golds but I'm just using it because the berries are favored currently

#

Maybe a decent gastly? growlithe?

#

Oh and bulbasaur+ but best skills aren't until late levels

smoky crescent
ocean hull
# tawny grotto
  • Pikachu: B. Early dream shard bonus is nice, the rest is pretty neutral. Wouldn't bother with it past lv10
  • Bulbasaur: A. Drops a good number of ingredients, ideal nature, sub skills are decent but could be better
  • Croagunk: B-. The item drops couldn't be better, but the nature ruins it. Hold onto it in case we get a way to change nature down the line
  • Pichu: C. Serviceable nature but not much going for it outside of that. Helping bonus is just too far off
  • Cubone: C-. Same situation as Pichu without a good nature. Berry finding being there keeps it out of D, but again too far away
  • Charmander: B-. Same boat as Croagunk
  • Bonsly: D. It's a bad mon, and nothing on that spread makes up for it
  • Eevee: C-. Not bottom of the barrel bad, but low enough to just transfer it anyway
  • Growlithe: B. Another Croagunk, but this one's actually worth using up to lv10 for that skill
  • Rattata: B-. Bad nature, good sub skills but don't mesh well
shy pawn
ocean hull
# tawny grotto
  • Togetic: D. Similarly bad to Bonsly, arguably worse since it comes evolved. It's better to raise a mon from its base form, as it'd get stronger in the long run by evolving
  • Wynaut: D. Bonsly reasoning
  • Larvitar: B-. Salvageable with a nature change, but even then you could find better sub skills. Ingredient drops are pretty nice at least
  • Magnemite: D-. There's too many negatives here. Main skill down on top of ingredient sub skills don't help its case
  • Metapod: C. Too average, and again came as an evolved mon
  • Gastly: A+. Just barely misses out on S bc skill triggers are a waste on this mon. Otherwise really great stuff, optimal nature and fantastic item drops, early mushroom (first item is always the same) is very useful
  • Bulbasaur: A+. Similar case again, missing link here is the nature
  • Arbok: C. Painfully average, nothing that particularly aids it
  • Caterpie: B+. Nature is serviceable, sub skills would be ok if the actually good ones weren't so late
  • Dodrio: A. This is good purely for early game. Nature and good early skills compensate for being fully evolved already, should be replaced with a better Doduo down the line
ocean hull
# tawny grotto
  • Totodile: B-. Deceptive. Nature's useless, while the rarity of the sub skills are high on average the gold ones are not that strong. Usable early thanks to lv10 skill

Sorry about the photo dump but would love some feedback on Pokémon that are worth investing in. Thank you so much

molten finch
#

I think most of those pokemon seem pretty good it's great you have a nice variety of berries and ingredients I think it's mostly just making sure to favor gulpin over ekans and the already higher lvl 7 totodile over the lvl 6 but if you get those berries as favorites you might still find use in them without focusing on them too much

#

Idk the totodile thing is a hard choice the more I look at that someone else would have to figure that out, neither are particularly good but they aren't bad either lol

loud pawn
#

Hey there, would anyone be able to give me some insight into which Growlithe to invest in, or if I should try to roll a different one? Thanks!

molten vault
#

don't think anyone actually gave their thoughts on this. wondering if anyone has experience with growlithe or "energy recovery bonus" could weigh in on how good this would be

crude crystal
#

That can be a decent support. Good nature for it, the first 2 subskills helps to your team, but having helping hand at lvl 10 could had been better. Also good roll for ingredients and the other subskills are not bad too because helps getting more ingredients

#

Also when it evolves it get increased its main skill

#

I think its an A

#

Or maybe S?

molten vault
#

extra helpful dosn't trigger other main skills I'm assuming, i know there's no data on this

#

i want to run the growlith, but i'm also running a pseudowoodo. so i feel like it could kind of fail if it lands on the wrong mon

#

the breakpoint for me is if energy recovery bonus is worth running

crude crystal
#

I don’t really know how extra helpful works but if it does like I think maybe it can be really good because it will help the entire team while also getting ingredients and berries thanks to its skill

crude crystal
#

Deppending on how much that skill gives to you could be like a better or a worse Ingredient Magnet

molten vault
#

I think it scales harder the I-magnet

#

cause I-magnet is always 6x ingredients at level 1

#

where extra helpful is 4x a gather trigger, which at level 30 could be a lot more

crude crystal
#

I don’t really know how much it gives extra help but it scales from other mons levels

#

And if it evolves it will be x5 instead of 4

molten vault
#

from what i'm seeing, 4x help is 4 gather triggers. so if a berry pokemon is hit with it, then it will spawn 8 berries

#

if an ingredient pokemon is hit, then it could spawn 8 ingredients

crude crystal
#

Maybe It could end being a really good support pokemon but I need more info and calcs

molten vault
#

i'm think of theorizing that growlithe might be the strongest end game mon'

#

but, at the same time, might be slightly weaker in the early game

crude crystal
#

If that is true that one could be really good. It does have one of the best natures for him, Helping Bonus and good ingredients drops that will increase with a subskill

#

Maybe it could be worth to keep it in the team to start leveling and evolving it

molten vault
#

it's going to be a while before i get a firestone tho

crude crystal
#

Maybe you get one for free?

molten vault
#

the condition is 10 pokemon raised to 25

#

level 25

crude crystal
#

You can buy it

molten vault
#

i mean

#

sleep points don't grow on trees LUL

crude crystal
#

The condition is using all the points that you get during a little more that 2 weeks

molten vault
#

and 80 candy, which could be used to get to level 25 faster

crude crystal
#

Don’t do that

#

Its better to evolve it first

molten vault
#

yeah? you think?

#

level 25 subskills are pretty good

crude crystal
#

It will require a lot of candies and shards if you want to level it with candies

#

I wanted to do that with Pikachu and now I changed my mind

#

You will hit lvl 25 eventually but what is really worth is what you will get from evolving it

#

Evolutions have higher capacity and helping speed than their preevolutions

#

But we found that you get more capacity and and one more level on the main skill if you evolve a pokemon

#

So the skill will be a x5 instead of a x4 as I said to you and it will give more berries and candies too

#

If you want you can use candies after evolving it anyway, but getting candies takes some time too and while you get the 80 that you need you will be able to buy a fire stone and it will passively getting levels too

ocean hull
#

If there's any downside it's ingredient finder tipping the drop rate away from berries, but that's such a minor point and don't have to think about till lv100

Hi, do you think I should invest in any of these two igglybuff? I guess the impish one helps with recovery but the nature contradicts the first sub skill, don't know how much value I should place on that. Thanks!

crude crystal
#

Berry Finding is a really good subskill so its great having it at lvl 10 already

#

And the nature helps to get more berries and ingredients

#

And it evolves twice so the extra capacity and main skill levels that gives to evolve it will make it even better

And their natures are not good and the subskills doesnt help either

Average level 30 and slight high roll for level 60 on ingredient amount.

Fuck alright berry finder level 10. You need to evolve this boy asap to get that inventory up. Second global goat, help speed nature and help speed 50 goat, this thing stacked S or S+ tier. I think it would be an S+ or SSS tier if it got an inventory up though like actually lmao.

#

So you could hold all your honey/beans/berries long term slight better on big sleep, but like best caterpie I've seen by far

#

Very good butterfree you're insane chispa

ripe shuttle
# grand gust Not sure if this wobuffet is new or not, but the igglypuff could be great

Igglybuff is middle of the road for lategame berries. Starting at iggly is much preferable imo to jiggly. You get the skill triggers really late is pretty oof but nature helps. Inventory and help speed is nice though and BIS nature it's like A+ for wiggly. I wish skill triggers were like level 25/50 and the help speed was at 10 and inventory at 75. The learn order is slightly scuffed. It's good for a wiggly though. Wiggly kinda meh as a species though till we get a pulse on energy

Low roll for ingredients, nature is slightly positive, inventory up is needed on a precaught wobbufet so thank goodness help speed and berry finders are really good but it's such a late bloomer and it's awkward. I'm gonna say it's like an A+ tier wobbufet it's really good for the species but lots of really tiny nicks against it being a perfect kit. Skill learn order and stuff could be better alongside better ingredient amounts. Wobbufet kinda pretty bad as a species too

Skill list is solid too ftr. It's not perfect but you get help speed and inventory which I think are neccesary. You will need 3 sub skill seeds eventually (one at level 25 and 2 at 75) but like kit is solid as heck. We don't shun skill trigger or skill level up charge strength actives too hard even if there is slightly better skills. I will rate this like A+ or S- on my scale cause of the silly ingredient rolls. You're also finding 7 caccao at level 60 which like, nuts. It's really just the nature being held back and you'll need the 3 sub skill seeds but that's super down the road for the inventory upgrades too

I can't tell what the ingredients are for x3 (is it beans?)

You high rolled amounts though. x3 and x5 are top of the ingredient range for swablue line. Nature is whatever but probably positive technically. We love help speed+inventory+ingredient finder. We dislike we need to use subskills though. I think it's fine honestly it's quite good. Skill level up whatever second help speed goated. I'm gonna give it like an S-. Nature is whatever and level 75 is whatever and SLIGHT seed investment but the set is very good and ingredient high rolls are top notch

ripe shuttle
# still crest Caterpie Caterpie yeah

About average on ingredients but slightly above average level 60. Would have preferred honey straight through but very small deal.

We love skill chance up nature with magnet and you have the skill level up M to boot. You can hit level 5 main skill when it evolves into butterfree which is the nuts and 1 main skill seed after you have a maxed main skill. That means gathering 21 ingredients a skill proc. Nutty af. We like the the help speed and ingredient finder S at 50 puts us back to base odds for getting ingredients, we like the skill trigger a lot but it needs a skill seed, it's good.

I will note, i have no idea if the skill level ups let you go over level 6 main skill. If they do, awesome sauce use a skill seed immediately. If it doesnt, I think main skill seed still worth it since you don't get the other skill level up till level 100 lmao so that's forever from now and you can be raking in +4 ingredients per skill activation that entire time if you use a seed now. Your call though technically wastes a seed over a year from now but i think worthwhile value.

Anyways this is like an S- or S tier caterpie. It has an undesireable downside on the nature slightly and the level 100 is super awkward but otherwise you have nearly perfect caterpie

if you upgrade ingredient finder S to ingredient finder M you can start getting better odds at the double egg rolls

High roll 30 amount and second highest 60 amount ingredient pog. Also consistent beans.

Nature is solid I like it especially with good ingredient rolls. We like inventory (although it's low impact till level 30) and we really like help speed. Double skill triggers are duds and then capstone of berry finder is technically really good.

I'd give it like A+ just cause of the really hard spike at 30 carrying it to 60 carrying it to... whatever. There's better but this is solid still

You got the hardest part which is good ingredients and and 2 good subskills early on. 2 duds in midgame a bit unfortunate but we viben

Average ingredient amounts for level 30 and 60 so decent start.

We like help speed up nature. ingredient down a little sad but it's still positive on the whole we like help speed.

Skill trigger is filler but decent. Ingredient finder offsets the nature slightly which is nice ig. Inventory up is really helpful at 50. Global is meta currency/10 whatever. level 100 technically quite good.

It's like A- on my scale its kit is a bit all over but still very good nature will carry it and you hit what you needed too for ingredient amounts. An A- pikachu is still a very good pokemon you should use ftr. Raichu is pretty nutty. There are definitely technically better pikachu's you can find though with a bit of effort. That said, i think if you did find a better pikachu you just use 2 raichu's instead of replacing this one lol

#

I wouldn't like prioritize raising this but it should naturally level just by being on the squad on grepa weeks and once you get into the 20's you can start pushing it to level 30 to get some of the good value stuff

#

It's probably low invest though

#

I wouldn't like sub skill seed or main skill seed it

The ingredients hit the averaged so it's not a big deal. Very average ingredient set.
Energy is a ? We don't mind the nature it probably is slightly worse than average but it far from messes you up. Level 25 skill Is really nice just in time for the level 30 ingredient unlock. You even follow that up eventually by inventory uphelp speed. Skill trigger is whatever its slightly positive but not wow.

Like a B+ raichu cause you hit ingredient odds and you get ingredient finder+ inventory up. Long term he will just collect you shit tons of apples. Raichu is good as a species though very happy with him. Good to invest into level 25/30, decent invest to level 50 and 60, and then we slow roll from there cause 75 bad an 100 is lmao away even if help speed is good

Metapod
So you hit average st level 30 and slightly above average at 60 for ingredient amounts. We prefer honey but the others aren't bad so we chill. We really like ingredient finder/help speed going into level 30 to just really get a lot of ingredients and we hit our capacity each night. The inventory ups are like probably relevant so that's good. The first one at level 50 is at least. Skill trigger nice.

It's like an A tier metapod. I would prefer a good nature.
It could have had better ingredient rolls but it got over the exactly middle of the road odds which is nice. I would have preferred if caterpie cause evo bonus. The kit is very steller though you're happy and you take this. Butterfree line is great

# remote jasper Aight

You really high rolled the ingredient amounts on this larvitar. 5x and 8x is great and you'll have the inventory up needed lategame to really get nutty pulls.

Really whatever neutral nature. We love help speed up and ingredient finders though.

S- tier. This thing is goated it just needed a good nature. Could have technically had all ginger ingredients for maximum high roll but also a lot of dishes need bean sausage and a couple niche ones need the soy beans. Bean boy. If we ever get mints I'd rate this S+ with a help speed or ingredient nature.

Squirtle slight low rolled level 3 quantity but the caccao is beat quality ingredient it could have. Second best level 60 gather amount.

Kit is great, help speed and inventory is great. I want to say A-. the amount of Cacao hurts since you could be getting 4x or 5x but the fact you rolled caccao is steller and kit is very very clean but they're all smalls so you will need seeds. If you get to like a max level 100 or whatever nonsense with fully upgraded skills it's pretty wonderful and a hard S tier somewhere but I think the smalls and the slightly low gather amount hurt enough. It's good though use this squirtle 100%

# junior rampart I’ve been reading a lot of the reviews hereto try to learn to rate my own stuff ...

Bulbasaur got good rolls on amounts. 4x and 7x are high ends of the spectrum 🙂

Triple ingredient finder is top notch between level 10, 25, and nature we take those. Arguably best in slot nature too. Good power spikes in help speed and inventory up and capstone of berry finder too is dumb. S+ tier. My only issue is you will need some skill seeds for level 50 and 75. This is really insane bulbasaur though.

Speed of help helping bonus riolu is kinda fire. We also hit average ingredient amount
Rest of kit is fine it's like A+. The globals are steller and nothing dead in the kit at all outside of the energy global passive. That's just cause we don't know much about energy gains though. I wish any of the other 3 skills happened at level 25 though. If it turns out that the energy is relevant then like comfy S tier, but I don't feel comfortable putting it over A+. It's just supporting with help bonus going to slightly patch oil gathering for the most part while occasionally giving some dream shards. You def roll with it on favored berry week but idk if it is worth or not for other weeks. Is good though

#

Small skills later on might bottleneck for this riolu too actually

#

I'm gonna probably knock the rating off some for that into A. You still just use it though and abuse global help bonus where ti feels applicable

#

Bulbasaur not getting knocked down for skill seeds late game was cause he deserves them he is loaded lol this riolu will fight with bulbasaur though for the seeds and probably other mons too

# sharp wyvern wondering how good this guy is, seems like the only mon i have so far who looks ...

While they are worth less points than leeks and potatoes, triple tomato is so saitsfying to look at lol. You also high rolled amounts in 5 and 7 your 1 off from maximum tomato farming which is lit.

Nature is whatever. I'd say slightly negative cause of exp down affecting research rank and you're getting nothing in return (skill chance lol) but it's really just kinda whatever netural.

Skill trigger level 10 eh. Ingredient finder S awesome at 25 right before you get to 30. Perfect timing on inventory up at level 50 to hold all the tomatoes going into 60. Another skill trigger which is a dud basically (tmk. energy correlations to gathering still out there). The berry finder capstone is awesome if basically too late to matter. I think I'll give it an A. Two dud skills, whatever nature, but you hit two important skills in ingredient finder and inventory up which are important and you high rolled ingredient amounts. Really solid long term. Filler C tier before level 25, it gets nice at 25 but then gets VERY explosive in tomato production at 30 so 30 is your real powerspike here. We don't mind filler bellsprouts early much though, if it's salad or curry week we like these. 🙂

#

It'll really want a skill seed at level 25 to get that ingredient finder up and probably would like the inventory up skill seeds.

ripe shuttle
# thin flame Here is my Magnemite are there other pokemon that increase the pot too?

Middle of the road on ingredient amount rolls but we like fiery herbs because they are worth lots of points.

Speed up help and inventory up are nice starts. Ingredient finder going into level 30 2x fiery herb is nice. I wish we got skill trigger though. More help speed fire, helping bonus fire, ingredient finder capstone fire.

I'd rate it A+ or S-. Lack of skill up ANYWHERE really hurts but the rest of the kit is goated for ingredient farming. basically once you hit 30 you will use this as your 5th mon to get some extra value in your dishes by increasing pot size and finding you a chunk of extra fiery herbs to put in which have a pretty great point value in the grand scheme of things :). Trading some skill triggers for a nice gathering set isn't that bad on magnemite if it hits average or above average rolls and you landed like just above that line with fiery herbs at average frequencies.

#

Global help speed bonus does a lot for it to have sticking power late game despite lack of skill trigger imo although that's of course speculation

ripe shuttle

Sudowoodo Average level 30 and above average level 60 roll on quantity. We're very sad we didn't roll mushrooms, but the quantities still are nice for the ingredients we do have. I think no mushrooms is a bummer though they are worth a lot more than beans or tomatos.

It's the proper up nature, you get skill level up which is AWESOME. Meta currency/10 for your level 25 skill skill. We like all the other things in the kit. We SORELY miss the lack of an inventory up though like sudowoodo only has 10 capacity. It's a pretty fine woodo though. I'ts like A+ i think. The lack of inventory expanding gatekeeps it from S tier it will not gather much at all during your big sleeps but like the kit is pretty steller outside of that for a sudowoodo. I will note, sudowoodo's as a species are pretty bad and you kinda need to evolve one from bonsly if you want it remotely useable since it increases your capacity by +5 and gives you a free +1 level to your main skill. It also faces super stiff competition from ampharos and espeon that basically just outclass it as a species.

WOOT high roll on ingredients larvitar. 5x and 7x is nearly perfect ingredient farming. Especially the 7x ginger once it hits level 60 will be mounstrous. WE like an inventory up and don't mind it early, skill trigger is kinda dud, it of course will spike at 30 with the 5x bean gathering, we love help speed, we don't mind a second inventory up but god damn I don't think we need 3 xD. idk actually. It could honestly still probably work. If you are hitting 5x and 7x ingredient high rolls you fill up space QUICKLY. That said when this is fully evolved at level 100 it will have..... 65 max inventory gastlul I think it's funny that theoretical endgame if you really high roll your ingredient chance procs will be close to maxing that out which.... idk. ANYWAYS I'm giving it an S-. It is missing an ingredient finder active in place of one of the three inventory ups. and you have 1 dud skill in the skill trigger. Once you start hitting your like 30 and 60 spikes though it will be GlaceonNote . It's still find short term the inventory up S is meaningful for rn before you evolve and while you don't get value at 25 in just 5 more levels it will start raking in the money.

Berry finder pikachu woohoo! Skill chance up exp gains down is a net positive we like that. Hit very average ingredient amounts but we vastly prefer ginger and eggs to apples so nice quality. Ingrediet finder x2 at reasonable levels, inventory, and eventually a skill Level up. Very solid pikachu. S tier. Could be more optomized like starting as pichu or getting inventory up earlier and better nature.but hell i would be really hard pressed to find the slightly more optimal pikachu's that also include berry finder. You need to evolve this man to get inventory space up though like really badly. You will thank me when you wake up to a raichu collecting 26 berries.

undone flower
#

damn this is incredible info thank you so much <333

#

how important are main skills generally? maybe i’m misunderstanding but it seems like you’ve been saying that sub skill rolls to optimize berries or ingredient finding matters a lot more than trying to optimize for main skill usage?

ripe shuttle
#

It really depends on the pokemon

#

usually the main skills are nice perks but aren't worth optimizing for unless:
You are ampharos, sudowoodo, or espeon who have charge strength M that has massive amounts of value.

You have ingredient finder.

You are growlithe or jolteon. These mons could kinda go either way for gathering or skill trigger but their skill extra helpful is very strong and they are technically skill specialists.

You are magnemite, flareon, or glaceon who increase your pot size for meals. Very good value if you can capatalize on them since extra ingredients give lots of points (especially high value ones like caccao, herbs, leeks, mushrooms, and of course slowpoke tails)

#

Does this help 🙂

#

Other generic charge strength skills are generic so why spec and energy is hard to value long term it's very obtuse

#

Togepi probably likes skill trigger sets but metronome rng no fun

smoky crescent
#

That’s why leaning on evolving my eevee Into espeon, instant gratification from charge strength M lv 2

ripe shuttle
#

Espeon is kinda unique but I'm lowkey a fan. Kinda just diet ampharos but unique psychic berries is steller for diversity and it's not like far behind ampharos much. We also like eevee ingredient pool

smoky crescent

Yup plus my eevee has main skill up nature and skill trigger M down the line

Bulbasaur
Above average rolls on the bulbasaur ingredients is nice. Tomato's kinda eh but you get a lot of them and it's not far behind his other ingredient options to really worry. You like the quanitity a lot. Nature is very good one of 2 best in slot. We like having an inventory up when we have high lategame ingredients. Will be nice for your main sleep too at level 10. Rest of the kit is steller. I'm gonna say S- because he has a LOT of white skills that will need sub skill seeds. Like 5 seeds over the entire kit which is a lot. It has all the right skills and natures though and is like an S tier kit. Just low values before you invest a lot (but the right values).

Charmander
Max roll on level 30 bean sausage amount and one away from level 60 bean sausage being optimal.

Nature is bad we don't care about energy recovery but we like our main skill in ingredient magnet. WE like an inventory up for eventual sausage farm and still good at 10 for getting a lot on main sleep. We like ingredient finder, we like help speed, we like skill trigger, second inventory is maybe overkill but I really like it. I'll say A+ as well. This thing is nearly perfect as far seeds goes and only needs 2 subskill seeds. It also will play just fine and has a good kit. After they are fully optomized though it has a lower cieling than the bulbasaur. They're like roughly similar effectiveness though. Bulbasaur is better of the two, this charmander is a great charmander though that's above average outside of the nature. This is a mon you use for awhile and pray we get like mints. If you mint him it's an S+ tier charmander but we dunno if we'll get those

#

I think the charmander high rolling ingredients and having the right kit just lets him rise above his nature so hard i'm sad he has a bad nature

ripe shuttle
# grave dragon Got a shiny slowpoke today but looks meh <:Brookek:1046439520469520434> <:Brooke...

Average ingredient amounts for pikachu BUT ginger is >>>>>> apples so we like the list overall.

Ingredient finder steller. Help speed awesome. We like the other skills too. Neutral nature. I'll say A tier becuse of do nothing nature and it needs a lot of skill up seeds but it has a really nice kit. You should use this. I assume we just don't bother with the seeds and take it at face value but it's still an above average raichu the line is great.

Average honey at 30 but low roll in 2 ingredients at level 60. At least they're caccao though. Idk i'm not feeling this jiggly much. It's above average but not steller the nature is meh, the skill order is weird but we like the helping bonus, and the ingredients are low amounts although we like which ingredients they are. B tier

I think this slowpoke is fine. 1 tail at level 30 is sad since not two tails, but we are grateful for tails for sure. Level 60 being caccao is honestly fine caccao is high value and we get 4x of them. Ingredient finding down nature slightly doomed. Skill set is doomed. B tier. It has a good ingredient list but everything else is dookie. THAT said at level 25 you do get the bonus exp which does actually really add up as you add more and more of it to a team so that's kinda nice. I don't think you much (cause shiny) because of the level 25 global exp for your pokemon team. You may end up saving him for like a 4 exp bonus team to power level things over the course of a week which is SUPER reasonable probably.

I need to finish some coursework tonight for my program, but I will eyeball this when I am done 🙂 Also I made a giant guide literally just a couple minutes ago in #1135772767829110825 if you think you want to tackle it yourself. it covers I am pretty sure everything.

grand gust
#

If the theory about there’s a fixed amount of skill triggers each day is comfirmed, skill chance down might actually be optimal for ingredient/berry mons🤔 just some thoughts

ripe shuttle
#

It's not fixed

#

I belive (current theory) you have a % chance to find a berry, a % chance to find an ingredient, or a % chance to activate your skill

grand gust
#

Is it not? I thought I saw at somewhere that you can trigger like 5 times everyday

#

Huh that’s interesting

ripe shuttle
#

That all get fudged with by stuff like ingredient helper, skill trigger, etc.

#

That is my current theory on skills, but i can't back it up too hard yet

#

Energy also should play a factor in activating your skills

grand gust
#

Gotcha, I am convinced about the berry/ingredient theory tho, saw discussion at quite some places

#

I’m like 80% sure they are dependent

ripe shuttle
#

Like maybe your pokemon has a 1-20% chance to activate depending on energy level, 30% ingredient find chance, and 50% berries. As energy goes down it just shifts weight to berries/ingredients (likely equally)

#

this is a working theory

#

Do not assume it is right, but it is maybe what happens

#

random numbers as well these aren't anything I'm basing stuff off of

grand gust
#

I see

mossy mantle
#

is this worth investing in?

ripe shuttle
#

For sure don't run with it as factual like i said but it is my guess

grand gust
#

I’m thinking about, if there could be a more efficient way for rating and stuff, like say we name a perfect model, with perfect nature + perfect skills, then subtract scores for differences

ripe shuttle
# mossy mantle is this worth investing in?

I made a giant thing in #1135772767829110825 🙂 it could maybe help you evaluate them. I will be busy for a few hours. I will check them when I'm done though. It takes a lot of time and I need to do some coursework

manic sedge
grand gust
#

For example, let’s say for a berry Pokémon, the perfect version could be adamant nature; berry finder s, helping bonus, helping speed M, speed S, and possibly skill up?

ripe shuttle
#

Sure whatever we can assume it. It's species dependent though

grand gust
#

And then when people asking for a rating, it’s easier to check if it’s good or bad

grand gust
ripe shuttle
#

One thing that is a slight bottleneck is there may be 2 really good "best" kits like one with ingredient finder and ingredient natures while the other is help speed up (and maybe even ingredient down nature) and has no ingreident finder skills

grand gust
#

But yeah maybe the skill lvl up part could be related to species

ripe shuttle
#

A lot of berry specialists have good ingredient lists like chikorita with chocolate/honey

#

Or typhlosion with ginger honey or primeape who can run sausage mushrooms

#

Just as random examples

grand gust
ripe shuttle
#

And like eggs for example are on NO ingredient mons even at later levels

#

only berry and skill mons

grand gust
#

I’m more towards each type doing their own things, like berry mon getting ingredient finding down

ripe shuttle
#

I think a high roll berry mon with 3/5 or 3/4 is something that you could very feasibly turn into an "ingredient mon that finds two berries" kinda vibe

#

Those are almost like a middle of the road ingredient mon has berry finder in an obtuse way

#

And is super worth for the high value stuff like coccao or mushrooms or maybe for like eggs

# dreamy plaza

I like him. You max rolled level 30 ingredients and nearly max rolled level 60. You even got fiery herbs there which is fire af. If growlithe hits itself with extra helpful you could get a lot of good ingredients cause of this!

We love berry finder and this also is nutty for growlithe hitting itself with its own ability. Ingredient finder is fire at 25 right before you get to 30 and can get lots of sausage. Skill trigger is really wanted and we need to seed this but glad it comes in not too late. Also absolutely fire that we land the inventory up at level 75. You will likely be hitting capacity around this point so extra capacity is lit. Want to subskill up this. Capstone of ingredient finding too. We also like this nature (i know it is scuffed slightly on ingredient finding but we take the help speed) I will rate it kinda neutral i think. Mentally looking at the progression and kit I want to call this an S- or even S tier growlithe. the nature hurts but the kit absolutely fucking slaps. Prime target for mints if they ever show up and bumps this easily to an S+ or SSS rating.
