Pre-Circus Investment Help needed

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I need some tips about what to do with my huge wads of cash in-game before I go to the circus (which will be a while, a week from now maybe)

 

So long story short, I'm in the process of grinding my PC mons at the Grand Hall and frequently hit $999,999. So far I've been trying to buy Rare Candies and Vitamins in order to not let them go to waste, but since I won't be able to get that until I get back to Neo Reborn, I need some advice on where to sink that money into, and how much (the whole thing, about half, etc) so that I don't hit 999,999 again too many times until I return to Reborn City. If I do spend too much cash, worst case scenario is I still have some items to sell (shit I got from pickup, Big Nuggets, etc)

 

So here's some details regarding some of my item count and behavior since some things you are probably going to suggest will turn out to be wasteful. (The following part sounds boastful but that's not my intention) 

 

  • Up to the Mall's 8th floor (no evolution stones yet)
  • Roughly 300-400 each of Great Balls, Dusk Balls, Ultra Potions, Full Restores, Max Repels (which I don't use anyway), 500 Blast Powder, 200 Revives and Ethers, and more Snax than I know what to do with (Thanks, pickup slaves. No really, I never bought any of these). So I have absolutely no need for items in the same category (e.g. Ultra Balls)
  • 5-10 of each status healing item, which I hardly use. Same goes for Gems and Berries.
  • 30-40 Max Revives and a few Cotton Candies, but I have not used any of these yet in story since I habitually grind levels to match the gyms/bosses
  • 100ish Rare Candies. I haven't really used any, but they're about the most expensive thing around
  • 30-40 Common Candies. Don't want to have too many of those
  • 4 sets of all Power items (EV training ones)
  • 20 sets of all Vitamins, currently unused except to make Tyrogue -> Hitmontop just right. Pretty much the same case as Rare Candies; I like to use the Power items for EV training instead
  • Gotten everything from the casino

 

So, where should I sink my money into? At this point it looks like I'm either going back to Rare Candies and Vitamins

Get EV lowering seeds. Those are really nice because you won't have any other way to lower EVs if you plan on EV training past the circus. I have no clue what else you need that you don't already have because it seems like all of your bases are covered.

I'm not sure if you can buy seeds yet? (Lapis Ward, flower shop) If you can, empty their stock in them.

Looks like I can't get them til the renovation (never understood the specifics of what they boosted anyways)

I might sink a few into them since they're fairly cheap, but thanks

What a shame, but oh well, their effects are specified on the pokegear app on the fields they can be activated on (as in, checking fairy field will include how Magical Seed affects your mon) 

 

I would also wait (or change the weather) just to check if you can get your hands on Blue Moon Ice Cream (not sure if it's its actual name but you get me) that is pretty expensive and pretty rare, also can help your ñs relationship points with Tania later (?)

Through pickup I've already gotten 17 Blue Moons lol

It's great knowing I'm not the only one who doesn't use pokemarts but pickup instead. It's a very fitting way to get things, especially in the old Reborn haha
