Early Game

Professor Spruce's questions define the Trainer Class you choose

The trainer class can be changed later in the game, but you should start with the class that suits you best

Starters have a very high Shiny Chance

You can see if your starter is shiny as soon as you can hit the summary screen

You can get an early game nature-changing mint of your choice at the Pokémon Center in Littlequartz Town

Talk to the boy at the counter to choose the mint you want

Wild Pokémon have a 20% chance of having their hidden ability

Starters cannot have their hidden ability

You can change the Ability with a Ability Capsule later

In your trainer card you can see a exp bar and a level which represents your current Pokédex level

You collect exp by catching new Pokémons

If your Level goes up (~every 45 new Pokémons) wild Pokémon will get a IV-Boost which matches your Pokédex Level

The max. Pokédex Level is 10 (full dex)
