Friendship has to be the worst fucking mechanic in these games. All I want is a god damn psychic rat that surfs on its own tail and I'm stuck walking back and forth for hours just to get this fucking rodent happy enough to evolve.
>Thinking happiness evolutions are better then trade evolutions
At least in ten years you'll still be able to get them in-game.

Just SOS battle a pichu and catch a Pikachu

I did that for 20 minutes and the fucking thing failed on help almost every time. The 3 times it was successful it called another pichu.

Stick with it, if you're that lazy just trade for one
I can breed a 4-5 IV one if you're that desperate

Carry it as your only hatched while walk- spinning eggs.
Use the plethora of friendship increasing services.

the massage is supposed to boost it like 5 points once a day. that's not nearly enough.

If I had anything to trade for it I already would have but the only thing people want are starters/legendaries like every pokemon game with online trading.

this is why I breed an insane amount of starters to use as GTS bait. people will trade damn near anything for a starter
>>30236317
I got it around level 20. It's best just to carry on with your playthrough (try not to let it faint though), and just wait for it to happen.

Every time you use an item on him his happiness goes up. Just use the same two TMs on him over and over until he maxes out.
