How to farm pokemon-held items like metal coat, gold nugget, berries poison sludge...This combo is pretty spectacular. I had to figure this out on my own so I am honored too share this with you. (just in case I am the first to post this lol.)
1. Place a pokemon with the ability Compound Eyes in the lead position in your party i.e Yanma, Nincada Venonat...
2. Have a pokemon with the Move Covet in your party Linoone.
*The compound Eyes ability give you a 50% chance of encountering a pokemon with a held item instead of 5%.
* The pokemon that uses the move Covet with steal the foes held item after the battle ends.
* Linoone has the Pick Up ability so always after battles check to make sure the pokemon is not holding anything.
Why is this important? Now you you do not have to soft reset a million times to get a Magby holding a magmarizer or an Elekid holding a electririzer!!! What if you are broke or cannot afford coins to by the trapinch in casino. Then go kill alot of trubbish and steal gold nuggets!!
I am so about to prove my theory. Try it for yourself and quote me!!
