Starting the Run

  • You choose your starter from Birch’s bag on Route 101. Your starter is Lv.6.
  • Saving Birch is a required battle against a Lv.2 wild pokemon from Route 101. You cannot run from it.
  • Your first rival battle is on Route 103. The rival’s pokemon is Lv.6.
  • All moves are legal in the Birch rescue battle and the first rival battle on Route 103 without restriction.
  • You will always start each run with 5 Potions, received from Birch with the Pokedex after the Route 103 rival battle. The gift from the Oldale Town Mart employee is a random item.
  • The player has the option to Either 1) Take up to 5 unique level 8 adopted pivots in Littleroot Town OR 2) Take none, and receive 5 random pokeballs from Birch at the north exit of Littleroot Town. The adopted pivots appear once you have the Pokedex, and are tabled from Routes 101, 102 and 103.
  • Oldale Town’s west exit to Route 102 opens once you have the Pokedex.
  • Lock in your pokemon with the Gatekeeper on Route 102. Your lead must be legal; the rest of your party goes to the PC, and wild encounters are turned off afterwards.

Wild Pokemon

Section titled “Wild Pokemon”

Wild pokemon will be any unevolved pokemon that can evolve by level, friendship, or a game mode exclusive “Roguestone”. Type is locked by stpping on a tile in the tower.

  • Pokemon in the wild have a 100% catch rate. (unless you took the adopted pokemon, then it will be 0%)
  • Wild Pokemon have a 50% increase to their level in all ascensions.
  • NOTE: Once you fight a non-rival trainer, you are LOCKED with your current pokemon for the attempt.
  • You may catch 5 pokemon if you chose to take the pokeballs, and then choose ONE to attempt the challenge, including the same pokemon 5 times if you choose.
  • Once you select the ONE pokemon you are going to run, you may keep the item it’s holding if it has one, treating it as though you picked it up from the ground.
  • You may heal freely while you are catching your 5 pokemon. However, if your lead pokemon faints your run ends.
  • You may swap your lead pokemon at any time during this phase.
  • Some moves are banned in wild encounters that would give you an advantage like Sketch and Healing moves.
  • If you are trapped and cannot escape, you can catch the pokemon that trapped you, but it counts as one of your 5 catches. You may also KO the pokemon as it does not yield EXP.
  • All pokemon that evolve with any stone/item now take a “Roguestone” to evolve. Roguestones you find randomly can be kept and used at any time after gym 1.
  • Shiny Rule - If you are scouting your mon to run, and find a shiny, you must attempt to run it or face the wrath of Crozwords. The scientist will level it up to 8.
