It's random as far as I can tell. Anyone with a red nameplate will give you FC, so you at least don't have to actively talk with everyone.

There's a different response based on whether the code was already used or just wrong. The one he got's the latter.

So I've tried playing this and.....the AI is actually using the same dirty underhanded and cheap tactics us players use. My team almost got wrecked by that one teacher's Meowith using Bite over and over again and getting flinched 100% of time. Also fell into the trap of leading with the Happy Hour Munchlax against that Beauty with a Gastly on route 2. It used Mean Look so I couldn't switch out Munlax, kept using Hypnosis to put him to sleep, and used spite every time I tried to use Metronome which was the only move that could hit a Ghost-Type so that ran out of PP fast. The Gastly also didn't have any moves that could damage Munchlax so we were locked into a stalemate. First time I've ever had to soft reset a Pokemon game because of a random trainer battle, good thing I save often :suicide:

Is it for a certain game only? Some earlier codes wouldn't work for me on X/Y because they were presumably ORAS exclusive.

There's this one fight where the trainer has two Pokemon with a Red Card, he sets up Stealth Rock, and his slowpoke spams Yawn.

It's stats are terrible, and it's movepool is kinda meh.

But it has Huge Power on all water moves, so it's actually pretty great.

I would much rather Dexnav had not been removed, because it was good for 2 things:
1 - knowing I'd cleared out an area of new pokemon, and 2 - being able to find pokemon you'd caught before, appearance rate be damned.
Also, pokemon occasionally had egg moves. Which was fantastic.

someone awful.

It seems like crap, but it's ability has the undocumented effect of doubling the power of all water moves so it's actually kind of good.

Mediocre stats, amazing ability. It doubles the base power of any water move which makes it ridiculously good at shooting water and mediocre at everything else.

But it shoots water hard enough its totally worth it. Make sure to pick up the Scald TM nearby, with that my level 17 Dewpider clowned the water Totem. With Water moves.

Yeah taking out the Dexnav was the biggest and weirdest feature removal since trainer customization going away

Dexnav should've been a permanent addition like reusable TMs

Like, I cannot even imagine trying to build a full Alolan dex without being able to fill in the 1-6 Mons in ORAS then banking them over.

I got mine after like a couple fights. Hardest part for me was getting to the Seaward Cave since you have to crawl through that Meadow of Infinite Mons to get to it.

If all else fails, I can breed some this evening for goons in Discord that want one.
