So anyone else actually use the berry farm? I skipped it originally because fuck berries. In all the other games you just toss them in a hole, maybe sprinkle them with water, and then forget why you bothered.
X and Y? You've got to water them a few times a day, weed them, and occasionally fight off the bugs trying to eat them. This gives you a better crop. Which you can turn into mulch. Which gives you a better crop! Or you can try to mutate berries and then turn THOSE into mulch!
And if you mutate them enough, you can make juice that levels your mons 5 levels.
Basically, I'm just excited they finally made this dumb part of the game I didn't care about actually a game. (Weird how making something a chore makes it a game whereas just waiting makes it awful.) The goals are just lofty enough to require work and effort but is within reach but aren't great enough you feel forced to do it.
