Having the trainers in the battle is a nice lil touch. I love how the team skull guy squats behind his pokemon

There's one skull guy in the field somewhere who doesn't fight you and he's squatting and when you talk to him he's like "I'm just squatting to work on my calf tone"

When you get to the battle tree there's an npc that adds that capability to your PC box after you've hatched a certain amount of eggs. Like 20 I think.

Also I just remembered bottle caps so I should be all good. if I decide to level this oricorio up to 100 that is

It unlocks once you beat the E4 and breed 20 eggs. It shows the IVs of all your Pokemon.

If only Volcarona was available in Sun/Moon...I could have a pretty great dance team. Lilligant might be a decent replacement though.

Very nice...the team is coming together.

If Dancer still works when I have a Choice Scarf or Choice Specs on Oricorio this is going to be a very dangerous team.

And I wonder if I'll be locked into Petal Dance if I use it via Dancer. This is a crazy ability.

I can't decide what to fill my team out with.

Currently I have Owl Dude, Pikachu (to be Alola Raichu), Snorlax, cute fairy bee monster - think I'm set on these four

other two slots are Lycanroc, who I quite like but I already have at least two fast fragile sweepers so I'll probably replace, and Haunter because I genuinely haven't found anyone to slot in there lol

there's a tip at one point that tells you to hit Y in the pokemon summary screen to 'see where their stat points are distributed', but i honestly have no idea what information that's giving me.

the battletree got a serious downsize from ORAS, esp. in terms of rewards. i guess im kind of done with this game, caught all the legendaries, and my team is getting so beefy they can just brute force the elite 4.

this is the most fun ive had with pokemon in a rly long time, ill still boot it up to fight and trade w/ people but i think im satisfied with the amount ive done. :)

also theres no uber elite 4, p weird when it's been in every game since gen 3 i think?

The pickup ability gets you items while you're just running around. If a pokemon with pickup has no hold item they'll pick one up randomly. In past games the items you get depended on the pokemon with pickup's level but which items you get at each level aren't documented for this game yet.
