Description

You encounter a random wild Pokemon of the biome guarding a berry tree/bush. Nearly identical event to Fight or Flight, but the rewards are 1x berry for each party member instead of the item from Fight or Flight.

Biomes

ANY (no need to select all)

Options offered to the player

• [X] Fight

  • Random wild biome boss fight, based on the wave number. It's a shop full of 5 berry items, plus the lead pokemon will earn an extra X berries based on the wave number:
  • Waves 10-60: 2 berries
  • Waves 60-120: 4 berries
  • Waves 110-160: 5 berries
  • Waves 160-180: 7 berries

• [x] Race for the berries.

  • The bigger and especially, the faster, your Pkmn, the better!
  • If fast enough:
    • Obtain 1-10 berries depending on how much faster your fastest Pkmn is than the opponent!
    • Number is capped at maximum 5 berries if before wave 100.
    • Pokémon that passes the check receives opponent's EXP.
  • If not fast enough:
    • Fight the enemy boss. It is omniboosted.

• [X] Leave

  • No rewards or exp.

Explanation/Notes on Design

Another common event, just a slight variation on Fight or Flight. Option 2 accounts for HP avoid for super high swings and because "bigger pokemon" (higher HP) usually should be able to hold more berries in their hands/paws/pouches. Speed accounts for about 60% of the roll with my proposed numbers though.

Notes to Developers

To keep it more in line with "Fight or Flight", I'd propose the following changes:

Get more berries, as berries are worth less than a usual greatball tier item. You could give extra berries based on floor number, which would be applied to any random PKMN in your party that can hold them (they can always transfer afterwards).

Proposal math for option two

    - Pull fastest Pkmn in party. Calculate its AllyNumber = (HP + (Speed*2.5))
    - Pull enemy Pkmn. Calculate its EnemyNumber = ((HP + (Speed*2.5)) * 1.5)
    - CheckDiff = EnemyNumber/AllyNumber
    - If CheckDiff <= 1:
      - Proc a fight. Enemy is omniboosted.
    - If CheckDiff > 1:
        - If wave < 100:
          - Get ((CheckDiff - 1)/0.2) berries, capped at 5.
          - Get exp
        - If wave >= 100:
          - Get ((CheckDiff - 1)/0.2) berries, capped at 10.
          - Get exp
        - No fight occurs

Waves 10-70: 1 extra berry (instead of an Great item from "Fight or Flight") Waves 70-120: 3 extra berries (instead of an Ultra item from "Fight or Flight") Waves 120-170: 5 extra berries (instead of Rogue item from "Fight or Flight") Waves 160-170: 10 extra berries (instead of Masterball item from "Fight or Flight")

Stealing should award EXP, stealing with a move should award a bit more.

I’m fine with this yeah
