    PokeRogue is a unique rogue-lite experience set in the Pokemon universe. Unlike traditional Pokemon games, PokeRogue features procedurally generated worlds, meaning the map and encounters change with every playthrough. This injects a hefty dose of strategy and replayability, forcing you to adapt to ever-changing situations. Additionally, while it doesn't have permadeath like some Roguelike, PokeRogue offers a challenging experience that requires careful planning and resource management.
    The Let's Try series is a way to preview / review games in order to get my first impressions through the first moments of gameplay.

    Oh this game is very addicting once you get a hang of it, watch out. Since you were confused about your luck being "D". Luck is a mechanic that increases a chance an item drop will level up (so go from a Pokeball tier to Greatball tier, from great ball to ultra etc.) and increases the more shinies you have in your team. So yes, shiny Pokemon actually have an important gameplay purpose and the shiny gacha is the best to play!

    I dont see anyone saying it in comments yet, but if you press your esc key you can go into settings and also use your egg vouchers via the egg gacha. Also you had a purple outline around treecko, that's a sign of pokerus for additional exp

    One important thing to note is that floor hazard and stat changes are stay between wild battle, so if you got sand attacked by 1st stage mon on the 2nd stage you will still have you accuracy lowered. Until your pokemon _comeback_ to the ball.

      ​@@Almethese84 as far as I recall and understand, checked again just in case, there's no fair use in Japan. I'm not sure about the legal international jumble that comes out of a person in another country with fair use launching and distributing material with their Japanese IP on it but they have in several occasions sent cease and desist notices. In fact, they even took down RUclips videos over their stuff before because RUclips would have to defend themselves individually in each country without fair use laws.

    I saw other people check this out recently, and the first time I saw it, my brain said "Oh lord, Reto is gonna love this."
    Pro tip, set up moves (Swords Dance, Shell Smash, etc.) persist between battles until you recall the mon (which happens at the beginning of every trainer battle). Hazards (spikes, stealth rocks, sticky webs, T-Spikes) stick around for 5 battles.

    Luck is related to the odds of the pokeballs that have items in it after each battle, upgrading to higher tier balls thus giving you better items.
    And this is where shiny pokemon come into play, shiny pokemon in your team increase your luck stat, thus giving you better chance of getting better items after each battle.
    In this game each pokemon has 3 diferent shiny variants, normal, rare and rogue.
    Normal shiny pokemon have a luck value of 1.
    Rare shiny have a luck value of 2
    Rogue shiny have a luck value of 3.
    Because shinies are kinda important in this game, the shiny egg gacha ends up being the best option.

    Also, some things to know if you decide to play more
    1. There are 200 waves in classic mode, it will take a little bit to get through them all.
    2. You can turn up the game speed in the settings to make things go faster, along with turning off the stats notif on level up, this will make the game much faster if it feels slow.
    3. Some moves/abilities aren't fully implented! If you see an (N) next to something that thing will not work at all, if its a (P) it will work, but not fully. (eg. Incinerate(P) wont burn berries, Retailate(P) doesn't deal extra if someone died last turn)
    4. The luck stat is only improved by shinies! This gives them an actual purpose other than "haha funny colour go brr"
    5. You can stack as many berries/held items as you want on one pokemon!
    This game gets really tough, especially if you choose to do it without retries enabled, i hope i get to see you play more of this!

    I am the type of pokemon trainer that tries to keep their pokemon at equal levels (or close to) to avoid my strongest mon dying and then not being able to do anything. Though I did notice that the style of the fights would make it difficult to do so (as ivysaur was your only mon at 18 after being the focus of EXP), I guess double battles as much as possible. This looks really exciting though :D
