Okay, thank god. I bought the $30 pack and felt like an idiot not too long afterwards, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one. This game is straight trash. Is it even worth finishing?
Like, there's 10 worlds + the ending and the postgame. It feels like there should've been one for each type instead of just 10, because you're really just straight grinding, repeating the same levels with minimal changes to your party and the enemies, for way too long.
I'm currently in post-game and would say that yes, it's worth finishing the main game at least. Post-game is a whole different story though. It is really grindy and I don't feel like I am progressing nearly as much as the main-game. I'm beginning to wonder how power stone progression works, as perhaps having a full team of lvl 100 pokemon makes it easier to get higher stat stones? As it stands now, my team isn't really progressing in terms of power stones, and is slowly gaining levels. Daily tickets will help ease the grind once you stock up and buy out all the decorations.
How long would you say the last 4 worlds take? I'm on the boss of 2/4 of them, but still 2000 away (and that's counting having a triple type bonus, I'm not barely over halfway there otherwise) from being at their level.
I gotta say, this is strange for a game developed by Gamefreak. It's surprisingly low quality.
Oh my god. I just deleted four of my Pokemon in training. I must not have read the description right. I assumed the supporting Pokemon just wouldn't be available for a few expeditions. Seems like it's totally not worth it. I could've gotten that one Pokemon up to that level by including them in just one expedition.
I'd say it would depend on your team composition. I cooked around 10 silver pots and made a team around them, which consisted of a shared defense buffer, and a shared offense buffer. I had a melee tank and two ranged, which pretty much lasted me to the end of the game.
The game definitely feels like a mobile game, which is the expectations I had going into it.
Are there any aspects of this game that you eventually unlock for free? As in, more storage spaces for your Pokemon and stuff like that? In Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp there were certain upgrades that you could obtain for free which made spending your premium currency on those specific upgrades less than necessary. Or should I just go for those upgrades if I need the space?
There are no evolutionary stones and no trading, so everything evolves purely by leveling.
I got a lvl 7 Pinsir this morning with close to 700 attack.. time to make a glass cannon.
I'm enjoying the game as a fun time waster. I just wish we had the ability to save distinct teams for each world bonus. Not a huge thing but would be nice to see a few QoL things introduced for the mobile version that would trickle down.

That's exactly what it does, it's referred to as "scatter". You can use it to dodge attacks or bide some time in case one of your Pokemon is knocked out and you wait for it to respawn.
Can you use the basic cooking pot after getting the upgrade? I have not been cooking much since it grants low level Pokemon and I would rather grind it out with my top 3 and hoard ingredients for the next pot, but I'm thinking towards the end I might be interested in using the cheap pot for level training(?).
When you're on your Power Stone screen, click the magnifying glass and it'll show you your Pokémon's Bingo Bonus
You get Poke dollars or whatever and you can use those for some premium stuff like extra slots for Pokémon/inventory and decorative items can be bought with patience that increase gains! I just bought the 18 dollar pack and I'm sastified with it, I need two pots and the extra 40 dollars a run is nice because the inventory space and such is a predator.

Dang putting in that work! Mind sharing the rest of your team? I hadn't seen Raichu yet and I'm at 7,8,9 & 10
If you recruit a pokemon that is past the evolution level can it still evolve? Will it be on the next level or some other threshold?
I'm missing tons of mons and just got the 3rd pot upgrade. Trying to figure out if I should cook lots of weak stuff or stick to the big stuff.

Making use of scatter during the boss fights really does help. Was able to take down the boss of area 3 despite being under the 2300 suggested power (and I've yet to recruit a Grass Pokemon). Rather than controlling manually the whole time, I just used manual to press scatter then went back to auto until I needed to scatter again.
Sure. That was a long time ago now, Raichu has altered a bit
Got me through a lot of the game, though I switched some out here and there as needed. Psybeam on Alakazam is a godsend and helped me beat the final boss. Got in the clutch Confusion.
Thank you! Is the final boss Mewtwo?!Sure. That was a long time ago now, Raichu has altered a bit

Forgive the dodgy contrast. I forgot to set my Elgato to Expanded for colours haha
Thank you. I had my TV on 2 (normally have it on 15) and could hear it so clearly. Switched to Pokkén and couldn't hear a bloody thing
Interesting! Thank you.

Does have type chart. Type Bonus has it so when you're in a World with Pokémon of that type, their Attack is increased and Defense is increased

How's that equate to enjoying? Dude just said it was the worst.
Because he's still playing? I'm genuinely curious. Why keep playing a game that he claims is "the worst"?
It's an honest question. Maybe something clicked. Maybe he realized something about the mechanics. Maybe he learned a new trick. I'm enjoying it, but interested to hear someone's opinion who has finished the game and is still playing despite their initial opinions.
He has to cover every little thing in the game for his site.
