In Pokémon XY, how exactly does the ability "Keen Eye" work outside of battle?
Jul. 17, 2023I am aware of the bulbapedia information regarding this, but I need more context. “From Pokémon Emerald onward, if a Pokémon with Keen Eye is in the first place in the party (even if fainted), there is a 50% chance it will prevent a random wild encounter that would have occurred if the wild Pokémon would be at least 5 levels lower than the Pokémon with Keen Eye. It shares this effect with Intimidate.” Let’s say, for example, I am shiny hunting. There are two Pokémon in the wild grass. One with a level chance of 2-3, and the other with a level chance of just 4 in the wild. Does this ability mean there is a 50% decrease in the 2-3 level wild Pokémon or just a decrease in the chance of the level 2 Pokémon from the Pokémon with 2-3? With a Pokémon 5 levels above the wild Pokémon. Trying to see if this ability is suitable for shiny hunting specific targets with higher levels in the wild or not.
