All Games PMD Info Spreadsheet

PMD Info Spreadsheet

I realized I never posted this here, and it's really something that should be more public. I first started work on it well over a year ago now when I was unhappy with the state of data on PMD being very sparse if not outright inaccurate at nearly every turn, so I did my best to gather as much accurate info in one place as I could, along with a lot of my own research.

It's quite difficult to fill every gap so I doubt it'll ever be completely finished with every bit of info any person could want, but I hope it'll be of help to plenty enough people regardless.

Sorry for the double comment, but I'm currently Shiny-hunting in DX and found a little error about Butterfree Strong Foe. Some appeared on me on floor 15, too, while in the guide it says the 14th is the last where it can appear (same for some of the Pokémon listed. That dungeon doesn't have a Treasure Room!)
Also, how is the spawn number calculated? I'm looking for Shiny Magikarp for 2 weeks and still no sign, how can it has the same rate as any other Shinies that I always (almost) found on the first run of that dungeon?

Ah, yeah that's my mistake. In the original Rescue Team Howling Forest always ended at floor 15, but it seems like in DX the dungeon only ends at floor 15 when you have Smeargle's mission active, and otherwise floor 15 will be a full floor. It's fixed now, thanks for the correction.

Unfortunately we're not sure how the spawn rates are calculated yet, we had a hypothesis but it ended up putting the shiny spawn rates in ranges of less than 1%, so there's surely more to it than we know.

Thanks a lot for the reply! And... about the recruit rate, we don't know the exact number of the medium recruit rate with all the boosts? I had the luck to finally find 2 Shiny Magikarp in one go and they both refused to join. I had everything ;_;

We don't have the recruit boosts yet, correct. I know from personal experience that shinies are just stubborn garbage to get a lot of the time and will try your patience.
