Fighting hordes with more than one pokemon

[Esannu]

Please allow to fight hordes with more than one pokemon. Thanks

Doesn't really make any sense considering the very mechanic of hordes in original game makes you battle them with one Pokemon. In addition, it's highly unnecessary as hordes most often are lower level than the wild Pokemon in that area would normally be.

This is just hordes takes time to be defeated with only one pokemon, I want to be able to defeat them more faster, like with more of my pokemons on the battlefield as I said above.

But that's the entire purpose of this game mechanic - you get rewarded with 'more' (higher shiny chance, more EVs and potentially more held items) for a 'harder'

battle.

 

If you could send out as many of your party as there are members of a horde, it would not longer be more effort = higher reward -  it would just be 'higher reward'.

Using moves that hit multiple targets will drastically speed up your experience if you choose to defeat hordes.

Surf, Rock Slide, Earthquake, etc are very useful as they will hit everything in the horde, assuming they don't miss like rock slide can.

Oh I was not aware of that... thanks for the info :)
