Nature changing mints too. Finally, a way to change a pokemon's nature!
All we need now is an Ability Capsule that will work for hidden abilities and we'll have finally reached the point where any mon can reach competitive potential regardless the state they're in.
 
More like, Natures are yet another gimmick to put in to make people overthink and nerd out over little things.
Imagine seething over something 16 years after the fact, the moment when the decide to make it a non issue and turn it into a pure customization option rather then an rng nightmare.

I agree its helpful, but don't pretend that breeding natures havent been easy since the gen 5 days, IVs are still hell though even with hyper training
So essentially, they're setting up the D/P remakes for next year, got it.
ORAS 2:electric bogaloo
I hope they at least add the fire types platinum had but knowing them it will be based on D/P's dex
Inteleon?
I just wish they got some secondary typings to match their themes though that would mean scorebunny's would probably have been fighting.
for example Inteleon is my favorite but for a spy pokemon wouldn't it make sense to give him psychic for intel gathering?
 
Huh, so they also changed Rare Candies.

I dunno, I think Dark would be more suited for that, considering... Ya know, Spies have to be sneaky?

isn't dark just called evil type in japan? I mean it would still fit considering shit like MKA ultra technically happened through spy agencies but abit too on the nose don't you think?

I was more so thinking your shinies, legendaries, and gift pokemon when talking about natures. and with vitamins being trivial to get now IV's are literally the only thing you have to worry about now, so if your into breeding autism it isnt that big of a deal, assuming that ditto is in and you have your six iv ditto like you should.

imagine being born anything but a galarian meowth.
 



Got to admit all these changes are absolute kino. Hopefully they dont hand out the new rare candies like crazy though. But i think the fact that the leakers didnt mention means thankfully they probably didnt.

Fire/Electric could work for Cinderace. Electrical muscle stimulation is popular with athletes and muscles generate a (very weak) electric field. Plus electricity moves fast and he literally as "race" in his name.
Grass/Normal would work best for Rillaboom so he could advantage of all the sound-based Normal type moves.
 
How did they change them?

I mean, we have EXP candies. Maybe I'm a dumb dumb, but having rare candies with EXP candies seems kinda redundant

Especially when the Bigger EXP candies seem to be able to level your pokemon by a number of levels for one candy
 
I don't like the new customization stuff. It's creepy.

They added all of these details to make every Pokemon unique, and everyone who didn't give a crap but who played competitively groaned enough for Game Freak to make them meaningless. Good job, guys.

From what I've heard, the nature changing is similar to Hyper Training. As in, your Nature stays the same, but the stats reduced/boosted are changed to that of another nature. For Hyper Training, your IV's aren't actually 31 after the boosts, they just are treated as such for calculating stats in combat, which is why that Pokemon's Hidden Power doesn't change type after undergoing it(Also why Pokemon display their non-Hyper Trained stats in Pokemon Bank).
