Myths of Happiness
- Putting a Pokemon in the PC (Come on, would that really be fair? You can only have 6 Pokemon with you at a time.)
- Healing the Pokemon when weak and injured.
- Giving a Pokemon a hold item (Other than Soothe Bell).
- Using a Pokemon in battles (save level ups).
- Winning battles with a Pokemon (again, save for when it gains a level).
- Letting a Pokemon's HP fall to critical status (when the annoying beeper starts warbling).
- Letting your Pokemon get a status effect like Paralysis.
- Walking when your Pokemon has a status effect.
