Mutch ado about nothing <| sep |> For the TLDR people it seems a statused pkmn will not call for help . I aggree with you it can be really annoying but I really like it . It create less straitght forward battle which are more exiting . I ' ll ilustrate by an example Battle At the water trial the dominant pkmn called Alomomola I said fine keep bash the dominant I ' ll deal with you later Alomomola use Heal pulse dominant is now full life ! I said Whattttttttttttttttttt ! !!!!!!!!! Took me 2 or 3 attacks to kill the stupid fish Then I lower the dominant life SOS Call another Alomomola back to step 2 In the end it KOes 4 of my 5 mons . It was a close battle I was quite nervous on my chair but when I saw that the dominant fainted it was such a relief DCaptureI start to plan the capture of a Regenerator Mareanie . First it can only appear through SOS . I need a false swiper . I ' ll fight Corsolas and Mareanie so if it would be nice if it resist water , rock , and poison . As Mareanie can ' t call for help I don ' t need a status user . But I need a way to check it ' s ability worry seed , role play . . Moreover a way to recover would be great so synthesis , . , would be apreciated . Last I won ' t run out of PP so a Leppa Berry and recycle would be awesome . This system is not that great if you plan to catch pkmn has they appear but I can be quite interesting if you know what you want and you ' re ready to plan for it . Sure it ' s a bit disturbing at first but I think on the long run it ' s a great system . Don ' t you worry I ' m sure you will adapt
