"Annoyed with Mesprit chase."

Good f***ing lord! Did they make the Mesprit (and by association Cresselia later) more annoying and tedious to do than in the originals??? Ok, for Context, I'm trying to have it be that I finish up the Sinnoh Pokedex (the seeing each pokemon bit anyway) when I beat Cynthia, and I'm doing fairly well. All of the pokemon left to see happen to be with trainers in Victory Road, and Barry has the Snorlax I need to see. The Problem is, I decided I wanted to catch the lake Guardians as well as see them, which I normally do in Sinnoh playthroughs. But good grief, I've been at this for an hour now, using my old strategy of route changing in the three exits of Jubilife City that don't have a load door to reset Mesprit's location, and I've not encountered it ONCE! So I figured I'd come here and ask if they changed it at all, because in every other Sinnoh game I've done this strat on I've encountered it within about 10 minutes (granted actually catching it is a different story). via /r/pokemon https://ift.tt/3pLKXx0
