So i recently started off a new nuzlocke of scarlet after my previous post asking about doing raid den encounters, and i decided to do a wonderlocke since i figured i might get some funny kitakami pokemon or some breedjects from shiny hunts in the indigo disc or something

Boy was i wrong

Surprise trade is just nothing but Bot trades after Bot trade after Bot trade, it was actually getting kind of annoying after i ended up trading off my 3rd Alolan Golem in half an hour because all of them are level 100 - after a while however i did get a couple bot trade level 1 pokemon - specifically an Eevee and a Cyndiquil

Do you guys think i should throw them back into the pool and fish new encounters or do you think its still fair to use these (Probably) Hacked/Modified/Duped encounters?

Hey y'all, i was thinking about picking up scarlet and violet again as a nuzlocke since i havent really played the story mode of the game since its release but i immedietly got caught up on how i would deal with overworld encounters until my friend mentioned a method he thought up of just blindly picking a raid in a given area and just catch whatever is in the den - Species and dupes clause still applying when it normally would.

My question i guess for the more expetienced S/V nuzlockers is simply the title; if im doing raids as all my encounters, is there a point to delay encounters or should i just sprint around the entire region and grab all my encounters before the 1st Badge/Titan/Base?

Ideally i would also like to make sure that i have the best chances of getting a mankey at some point in the run because i know Ahnileape is like an S+ Tier encounter for late game according to my friend
