Why does Abraham Lincoln increase your wild encounter rate? Why does 9/11 decrease your encounter rate? What does a 5% increase really mean? Why are such weird dates programmed into Diamond and Pearl? How does the Sinnoh encounter rate get determined? Why am I asking so many questions that are answered by the video? Will my next video be on a more normal topic?
