Completely wasted? Level and multiple instances of Pokemon with Pickup can't both be irrelevant, can they?
To clarify:
This would not include Arena Trap and Illuminate (200% Encounter Rate [Only affects the tile encounter rate, not 'what wild encounter you roll for']), Stench and White Smoke (50% Encounter Rate [Only affects the tile encounter rate, not 'what wild encounter you roll for']), or Sticky Hold and Suction Cups (Increases chance to find Pokemon while fishing)
Or are these included in "influence battle initiation RNG"? In which case, no Overworld abilities will be implemented, but only the two remaining Overworld Moves (maybe), which include Softboiled/Milk Drink, and Sweet Scent.
