You basically need to have a Soul Gem around to have a hope of snagging them. There are some characters that have a very low encounter rate and a very low capture rate. Soul Gems must be used to evolve certain characters, can be used to buy high-quality custom card packs (you won't have enough for this), but most importantly can be used to overrule the soul capture roll (obviously, always attempt it first) after defeating an enemy. It's not much, but it is something we can work with. Partly because it's more fun to develop your own style yourself!Īs a free player, you get a very small number of Soul Gems at the outset, 6 when you confirm the email on your account (or 6 by default if the email was confirmed already). The guide's intended to be a guide to acquiring most of the strong and/or unique characters available to pure free-players - Soul Gem-requiring options may be mentioned later - but is not an exhaustive reference to filling out the Oversoul Pokedex once you get the hang of the methods, if there's any random characters you're inclined towards, you can snag them yourself by looking through the char list.įinally, although many of the chars here will put you on a great footing for PvP, PvP technique will not be covered. However, it will include instructions to help boost your PvE kill rate, and by extension overall farming speed. It will not cover basic game mechanics or battle strategies for the most part.
This guide is pitched at players at the beginner-intermediate kind of level, at least at the outset.
Oversoul players often ask which characters it'd be worth it to grind-out where, and what order they should perhaps tackle that in.
