Happiness
Overview
Every Pokemon has a happiness level, initially 0 when obtained, that increases over time while the Pokemon is in your party. For most Pokemon, raising their happiness has no meaningful impact, but it can be useful for certain evolutions or moves.
Raising Happiness
There are 3 ways to increase a Pokemon's happiness level:
- Walking; awards 1 happiness point per 256 steps.
- Leveling up; awards 3-6 happiness points per level up. The amount of points awarded decreases as happiness level increases.
- Vitamins; awards 10 happiness points per vitamin.
The following vitamins will work for happiness training:
Additionally, a Soothe Bell doubles happiness gain from all sources except vitamins.
