The Perfect PokeRogue Candy Farming Guide!!!

[@Shikafau]

Just a couple pointers 1. Soothe Bell helps a lot for getting a certain mons candies as it just boosts friendship. Hard to find but always worth picking up. 2. Lures have been updated to only need 2 different lures to guarantee doubles outside of bosses, which need 1 more. 3. Try to avoid DNA splicers as it cuts the rate of friendship you obtain for the 1 mon you want. Only really useful for endless imo if you get soothe bells.

[@Joshawott302]

Thank you for the input: 1. Yeah those help a lot they are just relatively rare so I didn't explain it but I 100% should have! 2. I didnt know about the lure update good to know. 3. I did not know about it cutting the rate of friendship points thats interesting, luckily I only use Splicers in Endless haha

[@DraconisLeonidas]

I appreciate this vid. I did skip bits of the video, mostly to the 'best method' and watching the rest from there, and it's nice to have someone clearly lay out the process. No tricks, just play, really. Mostly I say this because the previous couple videos I watched from others weren't bad, but they were basically exploits based on farming a specific legendary via catching it over and over, which just isn't helpful. Knowing it's a simple matter of 'keep going' helps a lot, as is pointing out just not continuing the run so you don't lose friendship points lol. I have a bad habit of finishing a run even when it's obvious I'm about to lose, which isn't generally a problem imo, but if I'm doing it to deliberately farm candies, yea, not doing that should help a little lol.

[@Joshawott302]

No problem I'm happy that the video helped you out!!

[@noorazhartahir]

After completed Gen 1 challenge, I went straight to farm candies. Just like your tips. Flamigo with victory dance. Easy sweep till floor 80. And easily get around 10 candies. Thanks for the tips.

[@Joshawott302]

Awesome! Yeah setup mons do really well in this game!!

[@typhlosion7872]

I rarely even use Victory Dance with my Flamigo. It's fast enough with like 2 Carbos and Moxie does the rest

[@noorazhartahir]

@@typhlosion7872 yes. For early stages, victory dance is very important until you get vitamins

[@healyant]

first of all thank you so much second the music is in fact loud but i had no problem listening and english is not even my first lang third of all thank you so much again

[@Joshawott302]

Of course, yeah there are parts where it's too loud won't happen in future videos!!

[@Bruce_P-Z]

slight correction. They removed the friendship penalty for fainting IIRC. or at least made it significantly better.

[@noorazhartahir]

So fainting doesn't affect the friendship progress?

[@Joshawott302]

I just double checked and there is no -20 friendship points in a classic playthrough so the multiplier is not involved with that. Although you still lose 10 friendship points. Thank you for having me double check!!

[@Joshawott302]

@@noorazhartahir It still affects it

[@kameronjohnson3888]

I didn't realize classic had that friendship buff. Thank you!

[@Joshawott302]

Of course I'm happy to help!

[@jacobriley2379]

I made it 4 minutes before I had to turn it off. Dude. Your background music is so loud. You have a great energy for this kind of content, and you speak clearly. But the music is SO loud

[@Joshawott302]

Yeah the editing software I have isn't the best I'm still trying to find what works. Also still figuring out how to make edited content. I promise they will be better leveled in the future, thank you for the comment!

[@daveperella1263]

Isn't even that bad tbh

[@kachebelka3416]

I’ve been needing something like this thanks. Got an epic shiny spinda with fleur cannon and v create but no hidden ability, so it’s pretty garbage until I can get contrary.

[@Joshawott302]

I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!! We are in the same boat haha!

[@drefiasco7179]

so in depth. Thanks man

[@Joshawott302]

No problem!!!

[@Goalchamp]

Tysm for this guide, gonna help me alot

[@Joshawott302]

Glad I could help!!

[@abrandnewpairofsocks]

does every pokemon have a hidden ability? and also you mentioned that egg odds would be around 1/12, but is that for any type of shiny or is it just less likely for blue and red star shinies?

[@Joshawott302]

Nearly every pokemon has a hidden ability, some don't when they have unique abilities only given to them. For the shiny eggs, that's the chance to roll a shiny generally. When you get a shiny it then rolls another off for it's rarity; 60% for normal shiny, 30% for a blue shiny, 10% for a red shiny.

[@alancairns5897]

Great video dude! Just wondering is it only on pc/laptop that you can see the friendship points at the candy symbol? I play on my phone and cant check that sadly

[@Joshawott302]

So for hovering its PC only, but if you are on mobile then in the summary you can hold your finger on the candy and that will show you the friendship points!

[@alancairns5897]

@@Joshawott302 I did see that eventually thanks, it is still unfortunately a pain in the ass to actually work. Thanks for the help though!

[@Ghost_BTW]

I did the same run as you on a brand new account (I just started the game) with Sprigatito and am on floor 150+ but I only have 14 candies. I am doing something wrong? Thank you for actually going through a run and showing it. I appreciate that :)

[@Joshawott302]

Pokemon have a higher requirement for getting candies depending on their cost. Also no problem love to be of help!!

[@howdoiturnssj3]

So, looking at the other comments, fusion is a no go. Would heavily suggest having at least one Honey Gather mon on the team, if not multiple, so you can spam rerolls to get more candies. Pachirisu is once again the GOAT here, as it has both Pickup and Honey Gather. Also, looks like we're both in the "can't get a Contrary Snivy" club huh.

[@Joshawott302]

I feel that, that's something I didn't think of that honestly. Good idea, I'm not sure how many times you can re roll with the honey gather ability, I should look into that!

[@lunawolfking1340]

you should probably turn your music down. its hard to understand you

[@Joshawott302]

I know, it was an error with my editing software future videos will not have this issue

[@LightningStrike07]

Great video! This would've been useful for me back when I tried farming Wynaut candy for its Sturdy passive... 7:41 I thought the base candy point gain from battles is +2, which gets doubled to +4 in Classic?

[@Joshawott302]

No that's right I just misspoke, thank you for telling me!!

[@riccardomosena4162]

question: what's that red thing over the ribbon on mon like kekleon or zigzagoon? i know all the other things (passive, reduce cost, HA etc) but never seen that one also, will be a loooooooong time before i can follow this guide considering i don't even have a single tier3 shiny xD

[@Joshawott302]

For your question, that is the favorite icon I have some mons favorited for just the cheep red star shiny mons. Also you can still do this strat without having shiny pokemon its just always nice to have max luck and pickup on a classic run!

[@darkwolf21000]

What is the multiplier for full soothe bells? Wouldn’t endless be faster since you could more easily max them out and then focus on rerolling for rare candies?

[@Joshawott302]

Each Soothe Bell adds a 50% increase to friendship. Classic gives an extra 100% at the start but if you get all 4 bells you will get a 200% bonus. The reason I favor Classic is because Endless is not easy. Being able to get even to floor 100 with a mon that isn't immediately good for endless is really difficult. Classic is much easier because they give you lots of items to help you throughout sometimes it could be better. Overall, when you are grinding for candy with the majority of Pokemon going through classic is the best way to go.

[@abrahamfallick7193]

Could you do a shiny hunting guide soon?

[@Joshawott302]

I can definitely do that in the future, I have some current goals for the channel that will be met first but if I pass those I can make that video!!

[@CryCuSio]

i thought they removed the losing of friendsship when fainting

[@Joshawott302]

They haven't, after asked in a previous comment, they removed the x2 negative hit to friendship. So instead of losing 20 points of friendship in Classic mode it's just 10.

[@jaimereupert4247]

How do you check the friendship near the candies on an Android?

[@Joshawott302]

On mobile you hold your finger on the candy icon to see the amount of points

[@SparkZ009]

Might have to do it for raikou but its insanely exhausting.

[@Joshawott302]

I think it's a fun time with a good show on the side it's fun to do!

[@Cyberruler-wk5pn]

How can you tell how many points you need fir a candy

[@Joshawott302]

On PC you can hover over the little candy (5:13), on mobile you hold your finger on the candy to see the amount of points

God we need new content if this is what people are doing. I've done everything in the game and I am not farming candies, endless farming for shinies was time consuming enough.

[@AquaLady153]

so a pokemon's hidden ability can be shared with others thats compatible with it!?

[@Joshawott302]

No so you just need to get the hidden ability one time on a pokemon. So for example as soon as I get my Contrary Snivy either from egg or catching I'll never need to get it again, sorry for the confusion!
