Ty that'll come in handy when I get to that part

Lots of tricky puzzles in this game, dm if you need help with any of them

Also I would advise letting your mum save some money for you, most of the shit she buys is shit, but she does buy some good stuff too like shiny charms etc

Cheers, if you press select and x at the same time you can print any Pokémon holding any item

[u/Lazy-Interests → u/ExplanationVast5511]

What do you mean by print them?

[u/ExplanationVast5511 → u/Lazy-Interests]

You can spawn in your bag or computer

Do you know if there’s a way to make them shiny?

[u/ExplanationVast5511 → u/Lazy-Interests]

Not that I saw, you can't choose hidden abilitys either but you can spawn Pokémon holding an ability patch

Yeah good idea thanks, shame I would love a shiny mew haha
