So I've been thinking about Rocket Punch. It's a cool move... in theory. In practice it's impractical to use, as getting your pokemon's happiness down is a chore. I've been pondering a way to make decreasing happiness easier, and this is part of what I've come up with:
  • Herbs can be held and used by pokemon in battle, just like berries.
  • Herbs can be planted and grown, just like berries.
  • More herbs, that activate upon being sent out and raise stats (for example, Flash Weed would be consumed upon entry, increasing the holder's Special Attack one stage).
