another update! I played up past Gardenia and Jupiter last night, and also managed to get myself an Armor Fossil which I revived into Fence the Shieldon, who is Relaxed nature. I've spent the past bit getting them to relatively even levels before taking on Fantina. here's the team so far...

so, uh, quick update! I've arrived in Oreburgh with my first 2 team members: - Shinx (Daze), Female with a Naive nature - Magikarp (Triton), Male with a Lonely nature but uh. while I was in the mines looking for Roark... dude?? hello???? that's... an unexpected one. the game must really want...

I'd say my personal favorites are Gold/Ethan, Hilbert (despite his name), Rosa, and Dawn (specifically in Platinum). all of them really stick out to me for one reason or another.

it used to just be traded mons/anything that doesn't share your Trainer ID, but in Scarlet and Violet specifically, I believe anything caught above your level cap (whether it's under your Trainer ID or not) will be disobedient.
