There is a Pokemon fan Project that let you fight with a Pokemon team in a rogue lite format, so it get harder and harder and you need to find a team that keep up with the level and manage you money/ressouces as long as possible. I think it makes a lot of fun and maybe survive since it’s a non profit project. Try it out if you want.
My best run (lost to Bea, very powerful):
Oh dang. I’m early enough on that it’s hard to fathom getting to that stage. I imagine evolved forms and legendaries have higher point costs? Is there a way to increase your starting points or would that defeat the purpose of the point-buy system?
I got spoiled on my first run and got an exp-all and every run since has felt like a grind.
I’m struggling to build up my sustain, I feel like I can’t pick the cool items because I’m always too low to pass up any potions, and revives are steep.
It does feel good to pull strong TMs early, and I was glad to see that there’s logic preventing your item pool from getting flooded with items that you can’t use. “Wait, what? Who do I have that can learn that?? Oh it’s Abra, right.”
if you get enough candies from a Pokemon (you get by catch or use the pokemon) you are able to reduce the cost for 20 candies.
