Flower Festival Edition

What is Pokémon Sleep?
Pokémon Sleep is a sleep tracking app that utilizes your smartphone and/or the Pokémon Go Plus + device to record data as you sleep. In doing so, you'll be able to meet a variety of Pokémon and fill out your Sleep Style Dex.

Be sure to post your Research ID so that you can add and share candy with fellow Anons. We are currently locked at 50 friends.

FAQ:
>How do Shinies work?
If you encounter a shiny Pokémon, you only need to feed it a single Poké Biscuit to befriend it.
>What should I spend my diamonds on?
Expanding your ingredient pockets, item pockets and Pokémon box. Long term you’ll want to max out ingredient pockets, only get half of max for items and max 100 for Pokémon.
>When should I use my items?
When you have a good grasp of the game mechanics. You may want to save up Recovery Incenses for event missions.
>What should I spend my sleep points on?
Poké Biscuits first or if you’re a premium user: Main and Subskill seeds and Great Biscuits.
>Can I play this game if there's a lot of noise where I sleep?
The game tracks sleep based on motion only; sound has no impact.
>A Pokémon I fed got full! Will I have to start from scratch the next time I find one?
Nope! Pokémon retain the level of progress they were at the last time you fed them.
>How do dream clusters work?
The higher your research rank, the more you get. You may want to hold onto them until it’s necessary to use them.

I would probably go with the Naughty one since exp down will hurt like a bitch, but a bigger factor would be their ingredient spread depending on what you want.

I mean it could have a worse negative nature right?
>>
>>55768843
Vaporeon really wants skill triggers as much as Espeon and Sylveon. The nature is actually pretty painful, but Eevees are relatively easy to just keep rolling for a decent set.

>>55768948
Nice Bludevoir for a shiny
>>
>>55769128
The right has better skills, but I think the left will actually perform better. Also it'll be much easier to train up since it's already EXP-hungry by being a pseudo.

>>55769214
Unfortunately, I think the nature does it in. Otherwise the skills in that order are decent, though not the best. Inventory L isn't quite as useful with level 30 Cacao, since Blastoise gets plenty of space.
>>
>>55769214
Completely usable. The nature doesn't hurt it nearly as badly as peoplenare acting.
>>
>>55769765
What nature could be worse?
>>
>>55769798
Exp up, main skill down
Exp up, speed down
Speed up, ingredient down
Etc
>>
>>55769803
>>55769798
Regardless, I'd still say keep it. If Mints ever get added, it'll be great. I know that's kind of a dumb excuse, but you never know.
>>
>>55769803
Adamant (speed ^/ingredients v) actually does perform better than Calm (skill ^/speed v). Blastoise takes a small drop (27.5% -> 22%) in ingredient finding chance, but is still able to gather an equivalent number of ingredients over the course of the day, on top of the other benefits of faster helping speed. And Blastoise's skill trigger rate is quite low, so an increase from its nature doesn't really do all that much. In fact Adamant also beats Calm in average activations.

Helping Speed down is really just that bad. The only exceptions where you can properly counterbalance it are very rare cases involving skill pokemon.

You could use it, but it's extremely bare bones. Practically a stock Bulbasaur until it gets to level 50. It'd be more exciting if its skills where flipped entirely.

Which one is best and which should be candy?
>>
>>55772297
I'd go with Middle. No Nature bonus, but that speed will be great.
>>
>>55772297
Middle is definitely the best, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep the Bayleef around for a while since you already invested in it.
>>
>>55772297
Middle is best, but not until you get it to level 50 will you really see it shine.
The sleep EXP bonus is always a wonderful thing to have though.

Right sadly isn't worth entertaining with that crap nature.
Left is plenty usable but has less potency than your middle, even if it can level faster (which isn't to be under-estimated).

That Bayleef may still be worth putting on your team if you're lacking anything else, but the middle is worth your investment and rushing it to level 25.
>>
>>55771303
That's rough man.
I had 2/3 meal crits today, it gave me the big push I needed to get past Master 6 on Lapis.

I only got 950k on Lapis last week with curries, I did much, much better with salads because my team gets all the ingredients needed for two of the best dishes; Greengrass Salad, and "Calm Mind" Fruit Salad.
>>
>>55769214
Holy shit this is almost an exact copy of my current Blastoise, that being said I think this is usable as a cacao farmer until you decide to invest in a better one that's potentially more milk focused

Thank god i can make actual salads, so hopefully between that, the boosts to salad making, and a ticket i get some real gains.

I never really "stock up" on ingredients, because I'm just going to be using them for every meal anyways. Doesn't make as much of a difference to me so long as I'm making something every meal.

>>55773582
I had been building up some area bonus on Taupe, but it's back to Lapis for the event. I don't actually care that much about getting a Comfy (or most other single-evolution Pokemon for that matter), so I'm mostly there to continue building up my Dratini friendships.

I'm staying in Lapis for the forseeable future. I was hunting Onix at Taupe whenever I could spend a week there, and it took me from November 14 (Onix release) to March 11 to get 1 captured. So I'm going to give it a break until Onix becomes more available. (It's one of the few pokemon this game has available that I actually like)

>>55774425
Now that’s a deep cut. Originally, I thought about the game with the tank and the big titty plant.
>>
>>55773582
Decided to stick to Lapis Lakeside because I want to push my area bonus further.
It's 30% at the moment, and I can consistently reach Master 3 now.
Greengrass is 60%, and although it's easier to get to the very high ratings it's not as rewarding or reliable due to the random berries.

The other reason to stick to Lapis Lakeside is that this event gives you *some* encounters outside of your determined sleep style, so I have some better odds of finding the ideal Ralts or BFS Dratini I'm still aiming to get. My current Bewear does a fantastic job of gathering corn though, and has BFS to look forward to at level 50.

I might go back to Taupe Hollow next week because it's been a while, and I want to hurry my Pupitar up into a Tyranitar to actually go to Snowdrop Tundra for the first time.
The fact I've never been to Snowdrop means I have a big gap in potential sleep styles to register, stuff like the Slakoth family and Lucario.

How does one sleep max? I just reached 35% bonus on Lapis and even with a ticket I don't think I can even reach Master 3.
How does she sleep like anons? Does she sleep well? At this rate I don't think I'll ever see her two and three star sleep styles.

Well, that was underwhelming. I guess this strat is the most valuable if you have a good camp ticket since it doubles the amount you get from the skill as well.
>>
>Rolled Steel, Dragon, and Ghost

At least Gengar's berries will be getting a bonus, but that's it. I'll have to rely on Meals, but Salads are the best one for me anyway. Also used a Good Camp Ticket last night.

>>55774692
Part of my success last week was that I had salads, I can consistently make better salads than I can curries.

Last week (salads) with a 25% bonus I reached 1.2m strength (Master 6), but the week prior with a 20% bonus I reached 960k strength (Master 4).
I don't think I had any Sunday crits on curry week, but I had two on salads week.

My core team for Lapis Lakeside at the moment is:
>Level 53 shiny Wigglytuff - Helping Bonus, maximum skill chance, gathers honey and oil (eventually cacao), also has BFS at 75 to one day look forward to
>Level 52 Raichu - BFS, Helping Speed M, but also has ingredient finding boosts, gathers apples and ginger (eventually eggs)
>Level 36 Meganium - BFS, Skill Level Up M, gathers cacao and honey
>Level 31 Victreebel - BFS, Helping Speed+ nature, Ingredient Finder M, gathers tomatoes and potatoes (eventually leeks)
>Level 32 Bewear - Rash nature,, Helping Speed M, 31 carry limit, will unlock BFS at 50, gathers corn and only corn

Wigglytuff is a fixture because her maximal skill chance and level 6 E4E skill keeps my entire team juiced all day, including if I need to do any switching around.
Raichu is so damned good that even without favourite berries it carries most teams (level 30 cannot compare to level 50 berry strength).

This team is really good for making salads, gathering everything needed for Greengrass Salad or "Calm Mind" Fruit Salad.
If I'm unable to make those, I may make "Contrary" Chocolate Ham Salad instead, though that requires swapping in my Charizard that gathers sausages really reliably (maximum ingredient chance, but helping speed hindering nature).
I also have a superb Rash Gengar that gathers fiery herbs and mushrooms, that I swap in when I'm short on the fiery herbs that many high-tier salads use.

I do also have an Espeon with Skill Level Up M, but I never find myself actually adding him to my team. Gathers milk though, so might help for dessert weeks but I have a good Blastoise for that.
>>

>this mf has multiple BFS first slot pokemon
Is this some sort of cheat? Do you have level 30+ friendship with every pokemon? Of the 14 pokemon I have with BFS, only 3 have it in the first 2 slots.

150 a piece with 30% area bonus... So about 115 base.
>>
>>55775497
Like >>55775535 says I mentioned the relevance of the skills not their unlock order.

The Raichu and Meganium had BFS at 10, the Victreebel has BFS at 25 though.
Bewear will get BFS at 50, but that's a ways off, the same is true for that Gengar actually.

The Raichu is one that I befriended very early in the game as a Pikachu. You'd think that ingredient finding boosts on a berry specialist would be detrimental, but in practice I've found that Raichu does pretty well with it and it's excusable with BFS in effect.

Me getting BFS on any of these Pokémon has just been really lucky rolls. Their subskill spreads aren't necessarily perfect, but they get the most important boost.
BFS outweighs having multiple helping speed boosts, it's that good of a skill.
I've befriended maybe 2 or 3 Weepinbell, 3-4 Stufful, and these ones were just too good to not invest into.
For the Stufful I may've preferred to have eggs on 60, but it being 100% corn is plenty good and my Raichu will unlock eggs on 60 anyway.

>>55775552
That's a beaut right there.

Forgot to mention that this guy actually only took 2.5 months, but it did eat just about every extra rare candy I got during that span. Pretty sure I candy boosted it for its early levels too.
>>
>>55768826
How are you guys affording to complete the candy missions every week? I'm running out of good pokemon worth giving candies too and ones that are good and worth using candies on, I've ran out of candies to give them.
>>
>>55776647
having frens helps a lot
>>
>>55776647
Why would I do those?
It costs more shards and candy than you’d get back.
>>
>>55776647
Having a full and active research community gives you a minimum of 50 candies for random pokemon. Sometimes I'll spend a few candies on some of my higher level pokemon, but mostly they'll go into either something random that I like, or at worst, a prospective pokemon that's decent, but not super great.

>>55776798
"Use # Candies" weekly missions give you diamonds. If you're talking about the event mission, I find it hard to believe you don't have a handful that you can spread 100 candies across.
>>
>>55776647
It's only 15 diamonds, you tend to get some free in your daily gift, so if you're really struggling to find a Pokémon worth powering up consider skipping it one week.

If you're struggling to get the candies to power up Pokémon though, it might mean you're lacking on earnings and should review your strategy.

Here's your main sources of candies:

>Sleep research
It goes without saying that you get candy for observing any given Pokémon sleeping, however you get more candies for sleep styles with more stars, as well as for more evolved species.
Higher Drowsy Power derived from high Snorlax strength and a good night's sleep therefore means more candies earned (more research EXP and dream shards too).

>Friends research
Just have lots of friends and check for new research periodically, just enjoy getting 1 or 2 candies for each friend you have, try to add as many as you can and weed out the inactive players.
You're also more likely to receive 2 candies as your friend level increases, plus you get 1x Handy Candy S at friendship level 1, then 2x more at level 5.
By the way, remember to select a photo for what you think is the most valuable Pokémon candy. Pick something like a 1 star Dratini or Larvitar over a 4 star Gulpin, nobody really wants or needs Gulpin candy.

>Handy Candy S
The game is pretty generous with giving them out as rewards, but one of the key ones is to get them as an end-of-week reward for a steady sleep schedule with a good midpoint and plenty hours.
S-rank sleep will give you 6x Handy Candy S, A-rank will give you 4x.

>Transferring
You're likely to have befriended many Pokémon that unfortunately aren't worth levelling up.
Be sure to transfer the ones you absolutely won't use, though consider holding onto ones that are potentially fixable using a nature mint should they ever introduce that feature.
You receive 5 candies for base form Pokémon, and more for those that are evolved.

There's more but running out of space for this post.
>>
>>55777385
The more:

>Overflow EXP
When you have Pokémon at max level on your team during sleep, which depends on your current research rank, any overflow EXP you have will be converted to Handy Candy S.
The rate is 500 EXP turns into 1 Handy Candy S.
This isn't ideal, because that only amounts to 3 candy worth 75 EXP (before any nature or event modifiers), but it makes it less of a worry to keep certain key players on your team.
You should still consider switching out Pokémon to prioritise levelling up those that need it though.

>Random candy from team members
During the day, the Pokémon on your team can just, find candy out of nowhere.
When this occurs, you receive 2 candies for that species.
This apparently occurs as a check every 4000 seconds (66 minutes) and has a 30% chance to occur, and can happen up to 7 times per day. So it's worth checking in now and then between meal times (as well as to check for skill procs)

>Sleep Points
In the standard sleep points shop, you can get 10 Handy Candy S per month for 160 sleep points each.
In the premium sleep points shop, you can get 3 Handy Candy M per month for 500 sleep points each..
The latter is also significantly better value, giving 60 total candies for 1500 points, versus 30 total candies for 1600 points.

If you're not a premium player, but haven't yet started a premium trial, the best time to start a trial is at the end of the month so that your two weeks overlap two months and you can get access to both month's stocks. This is also great for the other premium offerings like the skill seeds, great biscuits, and dream cluster M.

Also about the overflow EXP.
I have a Wigglytuff that performs amazingly well and will always be on my team.
It happens that it's about 230 candies away from hitting max level, and it's not clear when the level cap will go up again, so I'm considering using that as my candy goal for next week so I can get a start on the overflow EXP earnings.
>>
>>55777385
IMO you shouldn't pass up any premium currency if you have the means. Worst comes to worst, you could always level up Sudowoodos, Gulpins, Wobuffets, or really just anything you have an excess of candies for.
>>
What is the current max level?
>>
>>55777963
Fifty Five
>>
>>55778011
So why do some anons mention the last two skills and third-tier ingredients as if they're relevant?
>>
>Haven't rolled salads since before I unlocked Slowpoke Tails
Jesus Christ I should have had this salad made like 8 weeks ago
>>
Is this a good Igglybuff?
Also I have to say I find it hard to see if certain Pokemon are shiny or not in this game, other than their color, there doesn't seem to be much indication. I was looking at the new entries on my pokedex and saw a shiny igglybuff and didn't know how I missed it lol.
>>
>>55778112
Shiny pokemon are always hungry if you didn't catch the sparkles. When in doubt, just feed em a reg biscuit.
>>
>>55778112
They're always hungry and you'll always capture them in a single biscuit, but other than that, a lot of shinies are pretty difficult to discern.

Your Igglybuff is actually pretty decent, though it would eventually want 2 Subskill Seeds in order to upgrade its first two skills. As-is, and especially at your level, I would just start using it so that you can evolve it ASAP.
>>
>>55778026
Well the level 60 ingredient slot will be relevant soon enough, but I don't recall anyone caring particularly much about the level 75 and 100 abilities. As I mentioned before, those skills are more often than not, reasons to rank down a particular pokemon rather than a reason to train one up.
>>
>>55778365
>>55775267
>>
>>55778402
A single mention of a "to one day look forward to" hardly screams the skill being relevant. In fact, it's worded dismissively.

It's probably still in your best interests to swap locations if you actually want the spawns there. Being a day behind isn't that bad, because you'll get the narrower spawns, not to mention a 1.5x cooking bonus to work with for the rest of the week.
>>
>>55778727
Anon >>55778560 isn't wrong.
My Wiggly has Helping Bonus, Skill Trigger S, Skill Trigger M, Berry Finding S, Inventory Up S in that order, with a careful nature.

The BFS wasn't a factor in me using it on my team because I needed a good healer, but this does make it something to look forward to in a game that you are intended to play over long, long periods of time.

What actually happened was I already had a pretty good Wigglytuff with level 6 E4E, but one day the shiny Igglybuff showed up and it just turned out to be fantastic.

Yeah, although ginger is good too due to the low number of beach Pokémon that gather it.
Ginger is heavily biased towards Taupe Hollow Pokémon, otherwise it's just the Togepi family that gathers ginger.
Pikachu family too, given how effective a good BFS Raichu is.

>>55780959
Any skill pokemon that you're actually going to use their skill, wants a minimum of Skill Trigger M at level 10 or 25. Left is the best of the bunch, but I'd still be hesitant to train it up.
>>
>>55780909
>45 friendship level

Holy shit.
>>
>>55780959
Left and middle are good, leaning towards the latter because I can't get 8 1/2 hours of sleep every night and I have energy down natures on my mons too. So the recovery bonus skill will help offset the losses almost.
>>
>>55780959
Helping speed boosts do contribute to main skill triggers, but it'll also start sneaky snacking more frequently at which point it can't "gather" a skill proc.
It'll mean needing to check the game more frequently to make the most of its role, but otherwise its expected skill trigger rate is surprisingly high in the absence of any skill trigger boosts.

Considering that it has Skill Level Up M, this is actually a really good option for a F2P player who can't get skill seeds often.
>>
I'm conflicted on this thing
>>
>>55782219
I'd trade my saur for it. Mine is top of my team no matter the island with berry finder and inventory subs. Only has honey until 60 though so the tomatoes at 30 would be nice. Main skill down is honestly not that bad. Mine is exp down, speed of help up and I proc ingredients at least twice a day.

Make no mistake that's a fantastic Ivysaur. Helping Bonus and Berry Finding S are so damn good that they improve all Pokémon, no matter what.
The skill chance reduction isn't that significant due to its main skill trigger rate already being fairly low, the nature modifier can only do so much with a low base rate.

Compared to a Venusaur at 50 that's ingredient gathering focused instead, it outperforms it.
(I made sure helping bonus was not applied to the speculative ingredient focused one).

Now, it isn't as good as a Meganium with an equivalent subskill and nature spread, but this Venusaur can still gather a great amount of ingredients which a Meganium won't.
>>
>>55782267
Likewise, I have a much better time making salads than I do curries or desserts.

Get yourself a good Bewear, and it's amazing what the two corn-based salads will do.
If not that, making "contrary" chocolate ham salad is very effective as a two-ingredient dish.
>>
>>55782267
I have no good oil or honey ingredient Pokemon, curry is by far the easiest for me because I have an optimal butter curry team. I have a great bewear so corn isn't the issue, it really is just oil. What Pokemon are you people using for oil?

>>55782283
I'm starting to think ingredient focused ingredient specialist aren't anywhere near as good as an ingredient specialist with mediocre subskills but with bfs.
>>
>>55782334
It's a conundrum because ingredients don't gain in strength, but recipes do.
Berries on the other hand, just get stronger alongside the Pokémon.

Late game, to have recipes keep pace with ingredient growth they're going to need to introduce newer, stronger dishes.
>>
>>55782306
Currently working on leveling this bugger up for my dedicated oil mon
>>
>>55782391
I think increasing pot size could work too. If it's balanced such that you'd need a nearly full team if ingredient specialist to completely fill your pot for every meal.
>>
>>55782219
It's just more of a berry farmer than an ingredient farmer, which is fine.

>>55782334
Having BFS causes ingredient farmers to fill up far more quickly, leading to an eventual loss in ingredient gathering. Cooking is still the most stable method of increasing Snorlax Power, plus it has a higher upside since it can also crit.
>>
>>55782306
Wiggly and Ditto, wiggly also recharges and ditto gives leeks. My meals have been Spore Mushroom Salad and Ninja salad this week, mostly hitting at least 40k each.

Most Pokémon only gather ingredients about 15-22% of the time, since their ingredient slots gather much more at once than non-ingredient specialists.
A Gengar actually only gathers ingredients 16% of the time, though it's impressive helping speed offsets that.
Dragonite and Tyranitar, gather ingredients 26% of the time.

Toxicroak gathers them 22% of the time, like a Charizard. Toxicroak however, has a pretty terrible helping speed.
>>
>>55784112
>>55784171
Mine was from a random super crit that turned out actually pretty decent, but it's also my only option for a consistent source of Pure Oil at the moment. I could put in a Feraligatr and try to get Oil that way, but that's rare even though it's a lot stronger power-wise.
My Toxicroak has a speed up nature, Helping Speed S and Ingredient Finding S, with Oil x2 and Oil x5. It just made a bad set of rolls, because it dumped a bunch of oil not long after.
>>
>>55784194
I have used oil for one dish so far. Only had a croc and wiggly for oil, no ingredient finder subskills and I removed wiggly yesterday during lunch. I’m at around 60 oil just from these two alone. Ingredient magnet from Wartortle gave me a few more.
So from my perspective, you don’t need to worry about using your croc for oil but not getting enough. If you gather oil just for Sunday you’ll have plenty of it by then in my opinion.
>>
>>55784257
No idea why you would only be gathering ingredient for Sunday when you have a 24 other opportunities to make meals.
>>
>>55784282
Oil is used in two of the best salads: Slowpoke Tail Pepper Salad, and Greengrass Salad.
You need a lot of oil for them, 15 and 22 respectively.

Toxicroak is currently the best source of oil, but it's a pretty underwhelming contributor otherwise.

I don't cook dishes that use oil often though, and I have my Wigglytuff gathering it (though with an ingredient hindering nature), so I can occasionally make these major dishes and save the slowpoke tails ones for weekends.
Greengrass salad is one I make during the week if I'm able, having a good Victreebel and Bewear makes this easy on Lapis Lakeside.
Otherwise I'll usually make contrary chocolate ham salad as it's a remarkably strong dish for how few ingredients it uses. It's among the best for dishes using around 20-25 ingredients.
>>
>>55784282
Both other dishes that require them at either big (so you need a ticket or a skill mon) or the other ingredient(s) are harder to come by.
It’s smarter to cook something else and focus on berries.
>>
>>55784334
Most other weeks sure.
This week, the 1.5x multiplier on all dishes cooked can't be ignored.

It's very convenient that Victreebel and Bewear are such good fits for Lapis Lakeside and salads.
>>
Recipe levels by the way, their boost in strength is very significant. The gains and EXP requirements are on a curve just like Pokémon.

Using Greengrass Salad as an example:
>Level 01 - 11,393 (+48%)
>Level 10 - 13,444 (+75%)
>Level 20 - 15,381 (+100%)
>Level 30 - 18,343 (+138%)
>Level 40 - 22,330 (+190%)
>Level 50 - 27,571 (+258%)
>Level 55 - 30,875 (+301%)

Once you get past level 50 the bonus strength gets much greater, though the EXP required is even more. My "Contrary" Chocolate Ham Salads are currently 50+ and it's very apparent.

The figures here I believe are just for the base ingredients. Anything extra just adds more, and then it gets multiplied again by your area bonus.
Events that boost dish strength like this one are great for power-levelling your best dishes, so it's worth the extra effort to make them. Even better if you actually have teams that can consistently make the dishes.

Pray for mints
>>
>>55784892
Mints will fix it, the nature is the only flaw it has.

The Kanto starters being ingredient specialists with ingredient magnet benefit from all of the conventional subskills, even if it's not focused like maxing out ingredient finding or helping speed.
The only subskills they don't want are the ones that most Pokémon don't actually want: Energy Recovery Bonus, Research EXP Bonus, Dream Shard Bonus.

Seriously, please let mints be a thing Select Button. I even submit a feedback form on the official Pokémon support site voicing my eagerness for them.
>>
>>55784886
So you know when you feed a Pokémon and it crits?
There's an actual name for that.
A 3x points boost is a "Big Hit", and an instant friendship is a "Mega Hit".

Tapping the "Tap Pokémon to feed them biscuits!" info bubble tells you this.

I'll just keep calling it crits anyway, same for the Extra Tasty chance on meals.

>game is designed to keep you playing the gacha so it purposely flips shiny natures.

>>
>>55785014
I had a (non shiny) Ralts with the same shit this morning.
Female, BFS, promising subskill set for skill specialist role. Even has Apples/Corn/Leeks.
Rash nature. If it had been the inverse (Careful) would've been perfect, but instead it's actually unusable because a Skill Trigger reducing nature is that detrimental.

I do think they'll *eventually* add nature mints, but will do it in a way that the mints themselves are gacha requiring an investment of sleep points and/or dream shards, possibly even diamonds, but also factor in actually sleeping for a proper gardening experience.
Such a system will limit the number of mints you can receive any given week, so it doesn't actually stop the gacha aspect in any way. The player will to decide which Pokémon are most deserving of mints.

Personally, I've got a promising Raikou that has a sabotaging nature, and the Charizard I've invested in has maximum ingredient finding, but a helping speed hindering nature.

>>55785086
There are literal thousands of combinations of subskills and natures, so it's highly unlikely anyone gets the same two Pokémon.
There's 25 natures in all, so that's often the pain point because one or two non-detrimental subskills can be manageable, but a nature can ruin it all.

Careful and Sassy are the best natures for a skill specialist. Sassy is EXP down so it can be harder to use but ultimately means enjoying a few more ingredients.

I went through my storage and picked out the things most in need of a mint.

Some are things that I use in teams often and just need a mint as a boost to a non-detrimental nature, like my shiny Butterfree, Pupitar, Typhlosion, Meganium, Glaceon, Kangaskhan, Dedenne.

There's a few Pokémon I do use that have detrimental natures that would be fixed with a mint, like my Blastoise, Charizard, Espeon, and Victreebel.

And then there's the few that would go from unusable to amazing with a mint, like my shiny Riolu, Raikou, Leafeon, and the Ralts.

Gallade or gardevoir? Annoyingly it’s male for gardevoir but I’m here for the stats etc.

I already have a very strong sylveon putting in the work but I’d love a psychic healer for lapis. But I feel like a Gallade may do more for me at this moment.

Or is it just shit?
>>
>>55786753
Honestly, neither. Between the two, it'd probably be more useful as a Gardevoir, but skill pokemon generally aren't as useful with just helping speed. For Gardevoir ,at minimum I'd want Skill Trigger M at 10 or 25. For Gallade, I'd want Berry Finding S in one of those slots instead.
>>
>>55786753
What I've been doing lately, instead of just speculating, is making a team on raenonx and testing my different mons in there.
For example, I've been considering between two Larvitars, and while one on paper seems better, putting each one alongside the rest of my team in the calculator shows that the second one would be better overall.

How is this game a gacha?
t. dumb>>55785040
>>
>>55787279
Ignore that last tag. Told you I was dumb.
>>
>>55786823
To be fair I have a sylveon with this and I find it to be like over the top? Like love having energy but at this rate it’s actually going into unnecessary levels of energy. There’s actually not much growing to do for a healer long term because once it can restore even 50 energy a day which is like 3 activations, they cap out on being helpful.

>>55787175
This is sort of what I look into regarding what I just said. Because although some of the stats may seemingly not help a healer, once they hit “excess” they aren’t actually working their best anymore. So on healers I actually think that skill trigger and skill level are the worst things you could have in the end.
>>
>>55787279
I guess you can call it gacha in the sense that you're constantly "rolling" for something good. Though gacha tends to be more that you're paying for immediate rolls.

>>55787636
You generally only want 1 E4E Pokemon on your team at a time, since their purpose is to help boost your other members' abilities to boost your Snorlax power. But since Gardevoir and Sylveon have different berry types, you can use them for the different island they're preferred on.

Energy healers continue to be useful until you reach the 150 energy cap. Since energy drains as you sleep, being at 150 energy when you go to sleep actually means that your Pokemon are able to work at their maximum speed even during your entire sleep.
>>
>>55787720
This is true, but I’m pretty sure even on low energy 8 hours is enough to cap inventories even at mid to low energy. Do Pokémon work faster with 100+ energy? I suppose it depends on how you play. Just right now sylveon is restoring 18 energy every proc and that happens about 6 times a day… sometimes only restoring 5 energy lmao. It’s quite wasteful, so I just wonder if it actually matters that much. Even if it only triggered 4 times I feel like we’re capping unless checking inventories mid sleep. Which I ain’t doing.
>>

>>
>>55787774
Capped inventories just means they go into sneaky snacking mode and continue to directly contribute to your Snorlax power. Or you could even use it to restore energy to Pokemon that you don't need to share Sleep EXP with, or had otherwise depleted.

Technically it'll be better than most other non-Berry Finding S versions, but it really does have basically nothing else going for it. I'd continue sticking it out until a nicer one comes along, since you'll eventually get another one with Berry Finding in the same slot, but with other skills and a nature that actually do something.
>>
>>55791187
In general, anything with BFS is better than nearly anything without it, just as long as there's nothing seriously impeding it like a bad nature, or ingredient finder on a berry specialist.

I recall it takes maximum helping speed bonuses (M+S+Nature+Helping Bonus) for something without BFS to outperform something with just BFS. That's considering it'll be gathering both berries and ingredients, and maybe some main skill procs.

Good | Good, but it'll take a while to kick in | Worthless | Worthless

I'll admit I got a bit overzealous with my own, especially since my Togepi friendship is at least close to level 10 to guarantee the gold skill. At least I spent 20% less candies on it I guess.

They need more pokemon. The only pokemon I love that are in this game are Magnemite and Sableye, and neither are that good.
>>
>>55793158
Go play something else
>>
>>55793158
Magnezone is actually quite good, especially with these cooking events. Sableye CAN get its niche, but both are rather hard to find good rolls for. Magnezone wants Skill Trigger, probably some Skill Level Up, and Berry Finding S. Sableye would want pretty much the same thing, but its niche obviously isn't for Snorlax Power, but in the Dream Shards it can gather up.
>>
>>55793247
I have a level 35 magnezone, but my issue is that if I use him, I use up all my ingredients really fast.

>>55793620
You should have already keyed in on that at least somewhat following the Raikou event. It was either build up Taupe for Entei or Cyan Beach for Suicune.
>>
>>55793676
i had, but they're really hammering it. without a set spot for electric berries, the prep for raikou was a bit more all over the place, like how dedenne was lapis/greengrass

Also suspect vulpix/ninetails may have tasty chance s like dedenne
>>
>>55768826
Keep it or reap it?
>>
>>55793562
Vulpix will hopefully be desserts oriented, because that's a serious weakness of Taupe hollow Pokémon right now.
Too many of them gather ginger, herbs, and sausages.

My Taupe Hollow team is actually pretty decent with a strong Charizard, Flareon, and Typhlosion, so I'll be going back there next week to get ready for the Entei event.

>>55793624
I got a 2 star Comfey without incense on Lapis Lakeside this morning.
I managed to stuff it with enough biscuits that I can befriend it for sure next time I see it. I was saving my incense for later this week to help ensure a higher ranking sleep style, so there's a good chance it'll be 3 star on a Saturday or Sunday sleep (got a Dratini incense too and need its 3 star sleep style).
>>
>>55793853
Wait for mints imo.
Would need to check calculator but BFS might still save it in spite of having the worst possible nature for a berry specialist.

>>55793937
I feel like the "sleep together" bonuses might be something like sleep EXP or sleep energy recovery boosters if the same group of Pokémon keep sleeping together, encouraging team stabilisation.
Alternatively, there are added bonuses for Pokémon that you've slept with for 100 hours, 250 hours, 500 hours, etc.
Also alternatively added bonuses for consecutive nights of sleep.

The latter two are ones that would strongly benefit the Wigglytuff that is always on my team no matter where I go. Even my BFS Raichu is occasionally benched if it turns out my island specialists can outperform it (which is unlikely given the Raichu is level 53 versus level 30+)

As for the per-type candies, they are probably going to be balanced against Handy Candy S but not as potent as Handy Candy M.
Similar to how Raikou candies required very few mane samples compared to Handy Candy S
I wouldn't feel as inclined to hold onto per-type candies for as long since you're limited in who you can use them on.
For fire types, I believe it'll be just 5 families in the near future: Charmander, Growlithe, Vulpix, Cyndaquil, Entei.
However, due to a technicality of candies being a shared resource across a family, you will probably be able to use them on a Flareon but then use them on any member of the Eevee family, unless they specifically exclude Flareon.

It's very much worthwhile, unless the goal is to get the coveted BFS Dragonite.

It'll need a subskill seed to turn Ingredient Finder S to M, but having Ingredient Finder M + Helping Speed M on a Naughty Dragonite at level 50 is one of the best things you could look for.
Inventory boosts aren't the most exciting thing, but they are a big help for ingredient specialists and more important on Pokémon that miss evolutions for having been befriend as already evolved.
Your Dragonite will have a carry limit of 25, instead of the 30 it would've had were it a Dratini.
Oh and the ingredient spread is really good too of course. Corn is fantastic.

The Research EXP Bonus is technically a negative, because you stand to gain more research EXP through better strength gains and higher drowsy power, than the 1.07x multiplier afforded.

>>
>>55794624
Both BFS and Helping Bonus is a holy grail. You can't expect that on everything.

The two-seed investment for that Gardevoir is entirely justified, an E4E fixture with Sleep EXP bonus is really nice and Skill Trigger M + Speed of Help nature is enough for getting frequent skill procs.

So much for this event. Every hungry pokemon I've seen so far has just been a random Stage 2 pokemon, which are hardly worth trying to befriend except for the rare super crit to get some extra candies on release. Pretty sure I've actually caught less pokemon this week than the previous one.

Guess we've got a free week after this one too before fire week and Vulpix show up, then Entei following soon after.

I've only got a pair of Charizards running, though I'm pretty sure I've got both Cyndaquil and Growlithe at or close to friendship level 10.

Appearance boosts and locations... Pretty cut and dry.

Also apparently they're adding the ability to encounter more final evolutions (Meganium, Typhlosion, Feraligatr, etc) on Greengrass and Taupe in the next update.

Should I run greengrass isle or taupe hollow for next week's event? Greengrass i can prob get a much higher score and therefore better pokemon. So im thinking why would i go for Taupe in that case...
>>
>>55794369
Same. That's why I plan to do Taupe that week.
>>
caught him this morning, should i evolve him?
>>
>>55797809
Considering Entei is coming and that you want as many Fire pokemon as possible, go to Taupe. Your spawns will be far less diluted than having to push past the normal spawns on Greengrass. Plus, your score won't matter for the week, as your only real goal should be to get more fire pokemon rather than try to push location landmarks.

>>55798016
It's not going to be very good. Nature could be fine, but you're mainly just looking at the first 2 skills to be useful, which those are not.

I switched from sleeping right after 4 am to before after the recent patch change. Just missed sleep at 4 am. Will this sleep count as the next day's?
Never done this before.
>>
>>55798345
Yes, 4:00 am marks the start/end of a day. So tracking anytime before that tags it for the previous day, and starting after means it's tracking for the current day.
You can either try to time travel or just take the L and input manual data for the previous day.

I remember that jump to 290 was brutal since you're at the point where you've seen most 3 star baby and base form mons.
I'm expecting the next milestone will be 320 entries, which is even more brutal because of the trickle rate of releasing new mons.

Same here. This week has also been pretty crappy, haven't found a single lapis-only mon, and I found a ton of Bulbasaur and its evos when I already have two pretty good ones and have no interest in finding more.
>>
>>55800353
The only Pokemon I wanted to catch from this event was Bulbasaur and I found 0 of them so far. Plenty of Wobbuffet, Weepinbell and Togetic though.
Last week I went to Snowdrop with the sole intention of catching Snover, but only saw a single Abomasnow despite getting Slumbering 5 times. I've only purchased 5 biscuits from the regular shop this month because I haven't seen anything I actually wanted to catch in so long.
>>
>>55800353
Same, I always manage to find LOTS of Ivysaurs and Bulbasaurs, but I definitely haven't encountered any Dratinis like I expected. I did manage to get a shiny Bellsprout and Togepi, but honestly I haven't seen much that I actually wanted. Every day has given my a hungry second stage pokemon, which I don't really need.
>>
Another thought about what the "sleep together" bonus might be.

The fact that only the 5 Pokémon you sleep with gain any EXP is pretty stifling.
They recognised as much with the energy recovery, and made it so boxed Pokémon can recover a little energy too.
Granted though that's also why the candy power up system is there.

They might implement a bonus so that Pokémon that have slept a certain number of hours with you can start earning sleep EXP whilst in the box, even if it's only a little bit it will help prevent stagnation.
Like how my Taupe Hollow or Cyan Beach teams haven't gained any EXP the whole time I'm sleeping at Lapis Lakeside.

Maybe something like
>50 hours - 1% of daily sleep EXP (rounded up)
>100 hours - 2%
>200 hours - 3%
>...
>1000 hours - 10% (cap)
Or maybe just a threshold to be eligible for a flat bonus of 5%, like 250 hours. The bonus can be doubled by using that one EXP doubling incense, or whatever other event is running.

I have a few Pokémon with 1000+ hours of sleep, one even has 1500+.
A potential 700 EXP per week could translate to 35/70 EXP for "benched" Pokémon this way, which is fair because the number of eligible Pokémon in storage for this proposed bonus can be dozens or hundreds.
It should also contribute to the overflow EXP for Handy Candy S conversion, if they happen to be max level.
