If you're like me, you like to take your sweeeet time when playing Pokemon games
The furthest I've gotten in Sun and Moon so far is around the first encounter with Lusamine
On my current run, I've been spending a LOT of time on the first island, catching and evolving Pokemon, using the Dex scan, and exploring every nook and cranny
While I'm doing this, my team will consist of 1 Pokemon who's training / evolving, accompanied by 5 Meowth with Pick Up
Defeat every wild Pokemon you encounter and all 5 Meowth have a chance to pick an item up at the end of each battle! You wind up with SO MUCH LOOT!! While I'm doing this, I leave Exp Share on (normally when playing through I set it off to keep the challenge balanced) to level all the Meowth up, gradually increasing the scope and value of the loot they find.
SM isn't the only set of games you can abuse Pick Up in — BW had Lillipup and of course ORAS / RSE had Zigzagoon — XY had Zigzagoon and Bunnelby!
Anybody else use any tricks like this to exploit the in game mechanics given to you? What other neat tips and tricks have you tried? Share them here! Interested to hear the weird ways people have been playing SM!
