I love that game freak chose to keep this. That way you can make your Story team ready for competetive in a fun way! You have to grind for stuff and not just stand there, waiting for an egg so you can keep breeding until its perfect! It makes my companions even more special!
When did they first start implementing these things like hyper training? Just in SnS or earlier cause gd i would have been playing pokemon way more if id known.
the biggest thing we currently need for perfect mons is Ms Clear from Isle of Armor which fully removes all EV from your pokemon since berries are rng gathers
Oras and xy had the reset bags... And the berries Reset bags are the best choice but i remenber not knowing it at first and spending days farming and growing barries that removed evs so i could fix my kyogre
You can get all 6 berries in the first 2 zones, 3 berries spawn in the 2 zones each and sometimes you can find a stack of 10 berries at once, which only 11 is needed to fully lower an EV
After watching this, I now know how to make my ideal pokemon teams as good as they can be! This is such a nice feature that will finally get me into the world of optimizing pokemon teams without the nightmarish grind and RNG of previous games :D
Ive never been into the pro scene cause it was always so tedius to me but since randomness is forsaken for hard work, i am using this video to get me where i need to be!
I’m so glad they decided to make these things much easier then grinding for literal days sometimes even weeks to get the perfect Pokémon. I’ve never been into competitive Pokémon battles but when it’s this much easier I want to give it a try
Yeahhh. Learning the competitive field itself takes a very long time. Making it so that you can work hard for guaranteed strong Pokémon removes that horrible grind, at least. Still gotta learn the game, which is very challenging.
To be fair once you learn the breeding techniques you can make a perfect pokemon in pretty short order. Even easier if you put the time into previous games grinding out dittos to get a perfect 5 Stat one. But starting from scratch isn't too bad as long as you know what you're doing. But it's nice that they give us options too!
Love all this added stuff. I accidentally bred a shiny Scyther and my friend informed me on mints. I just wish EV training was as easy as Gen 7. Just throwing your mons in poke pelago and waiting 2 days 😂 hopefully the DLC takes care of that
Awesome video. Thank you for making it . The only thing missing from this video is EV training- reset their Evs with berries and then EV train them to max 2 stats.
What the new games do better than the old ones is that you can work on your story team and take them into competitive level. I feel like that’s what Pokémon is all about. Things like using Pokémon only for HMs or benching a Pokémon because of it having the wrong nature/iv or lacks an egg move are no longer an issue. You can catch the runt of the litter with terrible stats and make it stronger than it ever was as a wild Pokémon.
@@drizzho no problem. By the way, I love competitive, but I tried out Tera raids, and then go addicted building teams for them. Definitely don’t knock them til you try them. I now have a bunch of EV trained Pokémon with builds specially for lvl 6 raids
@@zombiegodsire tho plenty of ways to make money and LP in the games specially with raids dropping star pieces and nuggets or having teams of pick up pokemon plus can use macho brace/pokeRus to increase the yield
Hyper Training is wonderful - it makes breeding so much more bearable. Now instead of forcing your Pokemon to breed and breed just to get a baby with those perfect IVs, you can use Hyper Training to get them. Now the only reason to hunt for IVs is to save yourself money on the Bottle Caps. And you can even get competitive semi-ready Pokemon from Tera Raids - 5* Raid Pokemon usually have 4 stats with the maximum of 31 IVs (rated as "Best" when viewed in the Judge screen) while 6* can have 5, or even 6 "Best". I personally am the happy trainer of a perfect IV Maushold. The Greninja you get from the 7* Raid event also has perfect IVs, and I suspect the Charizard and Cinderarce raids were the same.
You really have to give Game Freak credit where credit's due. Making competitive Pokémon is easier than ever. Before, you had to breed a huge amount until you get the perfect IVs, nature, and ability. Now, everything is easy to get without breeding or guesswork. IVs? The judge feature is there along with bottle caps. Nature? Let's mint it up. Abilities? Capsules and patches are there for you. Plus, most of these things are buyable from the get-go at delibird shop or chancy pharmacy now for cash instead of grinding BP or other currency. All you need is egg moves which is much easier to accomplish when compared to the other things mentioned. Now everyone can have a taste of what power is
fun fact: if you'd prefer to have "no good" ivs in a stat(useful with moves like Trick Room), you can put the ev boosting held item for that stat on the parent with the "no good" stat, and they'll be guaranteed to pass that one down (this works no matter how high the iv is, but the only other rating to go for is "best" and that's easily corrected with hyper training)
After watching this I now know that gold bottlecaps are worth for all the stats, as for regular ones are only for 1, thanks!! Just created another account to like this video twice.
I'm new to this and have a few questions. Hyper training just turns the IV into "Best" but you still have to EV train right? The fact that it gives you some extra EV stats when hyper training the IV is just a bonus right? It doesn't actually maximize the number of stats that category can get.
Fantastic video, only bits that could have been added to this in my opinion to make it a "complete guide" would be ways to reset and train EVs (condensed version) best way to grind pokedollers/ LP
If you've got scarlet I noticed deino drops sell for 150 life points. Encounter dragon level 2 in a cave that they spawn n you've got a money farm. Not tried n tested
But some pokemon like the grass starter are better when obtained from breeding due to breeding only moves. Like Meowscarada, you can usually go for jolly but when it has sucker punch, you can go for adamant which gives higher attack instead while still able to hit first with sucker punch if the opponent's pokemon is weak to dark or low enough for sucker punch to deal the final blow if they tried to use an attack move.
Got a quick question, I hyper trained a Breloom in attack and used one bottle cap for it, what exactly does “hyper trained” mean in the judge function? Does that mean it’s at max or no? Still new to all this so just want to be sure
of note, while using mint and hyper traning change effective nature and IV, the true IV and nature remain unchanged this mean mint and hyper training have no effect on breeding change of ability, however, is true change, and does have effect on breeding
So I just caught careful natured Lugia, would like to use a bold, calm or timid mint on it, and I also have some gold bottle caps, should I train it up to 100 first then use gold bottle cap then mint?? Not sure what the most effective way to maximize stats on the Pokemon are
@@dylna3cheung the stat calculation happens whenever the change happens, whether it's level, hyper training, mint, or EV so, the order do not matter in term of final result. If you are still unsure of which nature to go, you can do the hypertraining first. Also, in S/V, the level needed for hypertraining is reduced from 100 to 50. Although you migh still want higher level anyway if you need higher level moves.
@@tsuribachi thanks! And if I end up doing the hyper training before lv 100 the outcome of the stats will be the same regardless if I do it before or at that level correct?
IVs dont affect a stat by over 100 for any pokemon. It's a flat value at level 100, adding anywhere from +0 to +31. And in some fringe cases you ideally want the +0 on some stats.
It's so cool how I can make the Pokémon I've already formed bonds with can be made competitively viable now. That was always my biggest gripe with getting into competitive. Yeah, I could breed my perfect Pokémon, but there's no connection there.
Ayoo thank you so much...i have a shinny palafin,tinkaton,roaring moon, garchomp[the change isn't big but i like it], gardvoir, and aninape with really bad iv and i was considering tradeing them,but this video made me really hyped now
Little late but I found a slight bug in Hyper Training specifically on the stat selection part. When you get to the stat selection it shows ALL of the genderless Pokémon as female.
Mints only change the stat growth as the original Nature is still said in the summary. It also sucks that the Abilities no longer have overworld effects for encountering wild Pokémon. Pokémon with Synchro no longer makes any wild Pokémon get a Nature match, for example. Mints have no affect in encountering Pokémon nor breeding Pokémon whatsoever.
so many changes over the last few years to make these things easier, yet we still can't do simple things like changing what Pokéball the Pokémon is in.
So if i got this right. The best iv on pokemon is a natural iv you get when catching so if i have all 6 ivs at best does that mean i can max my pokemon out completely?
5:06 you said the hidden ability is super rare in the wild????? Are you saying if I’m lucky I can find a pokemon with technician roaming in the field????
Man I knew it was crazy to get a good Pokemon but this this is crazy but also seams fun me i like to catch multipule mons to check their natures to get the one I want but now just feed it a mint hm was wondering what thoes things did and what would happen if I feed one to that nature again glad I didn't. This game is getting me back into Pokemon and to grow out my team this much with this much customisation that's actually easy to do it seams really fun can't wait to make some crazy mons lol!
So one question I can’t find anywhere, does it matter if you train at high level vs low level and then level that Pokémon? Like should I start a fresh Pokémon at lvl 1 with hyper training, instead of the one I already started leveling
is there a way to see the specific EV count on a pokemon? while IVs/Natures/Abilities got better it feels difficult to know the EV count on pokemons and resetting with berries is difficult because they are hard to get even in the bid market.
@@codename_d3vl863 ivs are like the genetics of the Pokémon, like how inherently good it is at attack, defense, speed. Evs are like what the Pokémon has trained for, whether it has trained for hp, attack, speed, defense, etc. Each Pokémon when killed gives the Pokémon that kills it certain evs so it’s like how the Pokémon is training.
You don’t have to use it on attack or special attack depending on the pokemon. They are either physical attacker or special attacker. Which ever one they are not, don’t spend bottle caps on.
So if my Pokémon special attack says decent I can give him bottle calves and it will upgrade it until it says best? And I can do that with special defense and in all the other ones like speed till I get all round best stats Pokémon? I’m about to start working on my shining Pokémon then if that’s the case but is that possible?
Didn’t think hypertrained IVs from bottle caps were counted in pvp??? Isn’t that why people went to all the trouble to get multiple IV eggs in Sword & Shield ???
@star So your telling me instead of spending several hundred hours to get 5 IV pokemon that I could have just spent bottle caps on them to max the stats and used them in PvP without any negatives? Its like that in Scarlet & Violet too ?
Anybody know why my Charizard the Unrivaled has higher Sp Atk and Def stats than my shiny Charizard? Both have perfect IV’s (the shiny was hyper trained) and the same nature. They’ve also both been EV trained the same. For some reason, Charizard the Unrivaled has a Sp Atk stat of 348 and a def stat of 192, compared to my other ones 325 Sp Atk and 180 Def. I can’t seem to find an answer anywhere.
I still kind of wish the mints would change the nature on the pokemon's text but eh still pretty awesome. Especially if you catch shinies that have bad stats and bad natures.
