This also happens to mean that breeding is banned, though Pokemon can still be put in the daycare to be raised. As such, in the unlikely event that a Pokemon is found that is from the same evolutionary chain as another already caught, you must take a mulligan. If a Pokemon faints in battle or dies of poison damage in the overworld, they are considered dead and must be permanently boxed.ĭupes Clause (+ Evolutions): The purpose of a Randomizer is to use Pokemon you wouldn't normally use otherwise.

This defeat has to come from the NPC partner's Pokemon and not your own, such that you don't get to choose which one is the left-over Pokemon. This does not include gift Pokemon, nor the free egg that Cynthia gives the player.ĭouble battle encounters (for example, while escorting that one person through Eterna Forest) do count, but only after one of the two Pokemon has been defeated so the ball can be thrown. Trade- and move-based evolutions are instead made possible via level-up, items, etc.Ĭatch only the first Pokemon encountered in every area. aaaand some other randomizations too lol Legendaries in static encounters/gifts (such as Mespirit) are swapped for other legendary Pokemon, whereas other, non-legendary static encounters/gifts (such as Castform in RSE and the elemental monkey in BW) are swapped for other non-legendary Pokemon. Starters are chosen from a pool of basic Pokemon that have three-stage evolution lines (my starter was a Shinx who died very early in the run)Īll encounters are randomized.
