Eggs will show with blue dots if they are shiny.\n\n### Shiny locks?\n- None.

They have 60% chance of containing a Pok\u00e9mon, 30% of having a generic item and 10% of having a grotto specific item\n\n### Fossils?\n- Smash rocks in Ruins of Alph.\n\n### Baby forms?\n- Breed with incenses, see https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Baby_Pok%C3%A9mon#List_of_baby_Pok%C3%A9mon for more information.\n\n### What are the ingame trades?\n- Pawmi in Violet (for Cottonee)\n- G-Slowpoke in Azalea (for regular Slowpoke)\n- Honedge in Goldenrod Dept Store (for Clefairy),\n- Hisui-Voltorb in Olivine (for Mareanie)\n- Gabite in Blackthorn City (for Dragonair)\n- Meltan in Rinto Village (for Tinkaton)\n\n## Gameplay mechanics\n\n### Type changes?\n- None during the main game. Only some might gain one extra type during postgame from an innate.\n\n### BST Changes?\n- None.\n\n### Moves changes?\n- Yes, some Pok\u00e9mon learn extra moves for a bit more late game power. Such as Attack Order Beedrill.\n\n### How to mega evolve?\n- Press start when selecting moves while the Pok\u00e9mon is wielding appropriate Mega stone and you have the Mega Ring\n\n### Should I hold off evolving Growlithe/Vulpix/etc?\n- No, the evolved forms learn all the moves the pre-evoluion form does.\n\n### How do I change Rotom form?\n- After obtaining a Rotom, bring it to the guard on the first floor of Goldenrod Apartment building. You can then access the basement with form changing appliances.\n\n## Training and customization\n\n### Grinding Exp for late game?\n- Kitakami has an Audino/Blissey trainer for a fee of 10,000 pokedollars.\n\n### Nature mints?\n- Olivine beach cafe sells them.\n\n### Ability changing?\n- Battle Factory (after 3rd gym) offers them for playing a few rounds. Few can also be found in the overworld.\n\n### Tutor moves?\n- There's a tutor move master in Olivine City in the top-right house who will sell you infinite access to all Tutor moves for 44444 pokedollars. After buying it, you can teach tutor moves from the summary screen.\n\n### Egg moves?\n- Blackthorn City egg move master sells you infinite access to egg moves for 88888 pokedollars similar to tutor move master.\n\n### Why do innates unlock so late?\n- They are meant to act as a form of postgame progression. Most Pok\u00e9mon stop learning moves around 60~ usually, so this gives something to look forward to after that. If you really want to play with innates during the main game, you can activate them from the bookcase behind the starter case table in Elm's lab. However this will be a very unbalanced experience and not the intended way to play.\n\n### Raising IVs?\n- Fishing and Battle Factory (after gym 3) can net you feather items which permanently raise your IVs by 5 with each use. Additionally Hyper Training is available in Rinto Village with Bottle Caps (which can also be obtained by fishing with Super Rod).\n\n### Raising EVs?\n- EV items such as Power Weight have been greatly buffed, and they are buyable in Goldenrod. Additionally vitamins like Protein are not capped at 100 EVs anymore, and there are EX versions of the items that raise the stats instantly to max.\n\n### Lowering EVs?\n- Goldenrod Dept. Store sells EV reducing berries?\n\n## Items, money, and Pickup\n\n### Tips for finding items that are held by wild Pok\u00e9mon?\n- Have a Pok\u00e9mon with ability Compoundeyes or Super Luck in the first party slot to increase the chances of wild Pok\u00e9mon holding an item.\n\n### Tips for getting money?\n- Early game, have a Pok\u00e9mon with ability Pickup. In this hack if the held item slot is occuped, items picked by Pickup will still go to bag. Later on you can fish feathers or smash rocks for shards and sell them for quick cash. After reaching Goldenrod, you can start coveting/thieving Yanmas on Route 35 for Wide Lenses, they sell for a lot of money and can be easily farmed with Dexnav chain. Butterfree learns Covet and Persian learns Thief. After obtaining 8 badges, Battle Factory will stock Nuggets and Big Nuggets. In the post game you can farm money from the Rocket Arcade facility.\n\n### What items can Pickup find?\n- Below is the table of items found with Pickup. Note that the items go straight to bag if held item slot is occupied.\n\n| Item | Lv. 1\u201310 | Lv. 11\u201320 | Lv. 21\u201330 | Lv. 31\u201340 | Lv. 41\u201350 | Lv. 51\u201360 | Lv. 61\u201370 | Lv. 71\u201380 | Lv. 81\u201390 | Lv. 91\u2013100 |\n| :--- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |\n| Potion | 35% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Tiny Mushroom | 25% | 10% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Repel | 8% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Super Potion | 8% | 10% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Pok\u00e9 Doll | 8% | 10% | 9% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Big Mushroom | 3% | 10% | 9% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Super Repel | 3% | 10% | 9% | 9% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Full Heal | 3% | 3% | 9% | 8% | 9% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Revive | 3% | 3% | 3% | 8% | 8% | 9% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Hyper Potion | 3% | 3% | 3% | 4% | 8% | 9% | 8% | 30% | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Ether | 1% | 1% | 3% | 4% | 4% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| Max Repel | \u2014 | 3% | 3% | 4% | 4% | 9% | 8% | 8% | 30% | \u2014 |\n| Moon Stone | \u2014 | 3% | 3% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 9% | 10% |\n| Sun Stone | \u2014 | 3% | 3% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 9% | 10% |\n| Rare Candy | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Nugget | \u2014 | \u2014 | 3% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Max Potion | \u2014 | \u2014 | 3% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 8% | 8% | 9% | 30% |\n| Max Ether | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 4% | 4% | 4% | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 |\n| PP Up | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Big Nugget | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Destiny Knot | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n| Leftovers | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n| Mental Herb | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n| Power Herb | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n| White Herb | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n| Balm Mushroom | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Max Revive | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 7% | 9% | 9% |\n| Ability Capsule | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 5% |\n| Ability Patch | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 4% | 5% |\n| Bottle Cap | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | \u2014 | 1% | 1% | 1% |\n\n## Postgame and optional battles\n\n### How do I get Dive HM?\n- Complete Mt.

The Masuda Method is not enabled in this hack.\n- Gift eggs can be shiny just like any regular gift Pok\u00e9mon.\n- Shiny eggs have blue dots on their sprite.\n- An egg's shininess when breeding at the Day Care is decided when the egg is spawned at the Daycare Man, not when it's accepted/hatches.\n- The Day-Care Man says, \"This Egg looks quite different from the ones we usually see!\" when a shiny egg is ready. This message is shown before he asks if you want the egg.\n- Accept the egg after the special message. Otherwise, decline it and walk until another egg is ready.\n\n## Legendaries, statis encounters and gifts\n\nSave directly before starting the encounter or receiving the Pok\u00e9mon. If it is not shiny, soft reset and try again.\nGift Pok\u00e9mon show as shiny in the preview screen when received.\n\nRaikou, Entei and Suicune are rolled when they are released in Burned Tower. Their shininess does not change each time they are encountered. It is recommended that you instead Shiny Genome them if you wish to have them as shiny.\n\n## NPC trades\n\nNPC trades can be shiny and have 12 times the normal shiny chance. Save before completing the trade, then soft reset if needed. The sprite will show as shiny during the trade animation.\n\n\n## Note about save states\n\nYou may use save states to shiny hunt many of these faster, but you have to occasionally advance the RNG by opening a bag or taking a few steps for example, so that you don't get stuck in the same outcomes."},{"slug":"megaevolutions","title":"List of Mega Evolutions","summary":"All Mega evolutions and the
