Just beat the ghost trial, toughest one yet. I'm glad they decided not to do gyms again this time, this one and the fire trial were really great

pay attention to the poke pelago stuff, specifically the berry tree.

the rainbow berries will make your pokes affection shoot up to 2/3 hearts instantly, which gives them a big permanent XP boost. more affection also gives them a chance to survive fatal hits, auto-cure status ailments in battle and increased crit chance

This but dont put any status effects on them, seems to lower the chances of it. Also you can use a Adrenaline Orb (you can buy them at any PMC) to make them call way more frequently

Im pretty sure the adrenaline orbs also gives them a higher chance of calling in the rare sos battle spawn too, like the cubones at the volcano will call a kengaskhan, the magikarps will call a gyarados, etc.

absolutely anything

yeah it takes like 3 rainbow beans to max out affection which is sick. you can just max it out as soon as you get a poke. they love them drat beans

There's no grid movement.

Battles feel like stadium. Took them long enough.

Could you choose to send a party poke to the box in exchange for a newly caught one in x and y cause holy poo poo that's really really nice QOL

i think if you used the dpad it was grid movement and if you used the circle pad your character hopped on some roller skates and moved freely
