 :* Some spawns are "Blind Spawns", where a Pokémon's dex entry appears instead of its image. You are allowed to guess for these spawns, as long as they aren't "joke guesses", such as "Zapdos" since Zapdos cannot spawn.
-* The '''daily''' command can be used to claim {{CordaBuck|200}}, 2 Corda Balls, and 1,000 Discount Card. After catching your first Pokémon, you must wait 24 hours to claim your daily. Afterwards, you can claim your daily every 24 hours.

-* All new trainers start the game with 5 [[Corda Ball]]s in their bag. If a Pokémon originates from Kalos, a Corda Ball is used when it is caught; otherwise, it does not cost a Corda Ball nor do you need to have a Corda Ball in your possession to catch the Pokémon.

-* The Daily command can be used to claim {{CordaBuck|200}}, 2 Corda Balls, and 1,000 Discount Card. You will be able to use it 24 hours after catching your first Pokémon, then every 24 hours thereafter.
+* If a Pokémon spawns but the picture doesn't load correctly for some reason, '''DO NOT GUESS''' the name of the Pokémon. Guessing is considered cheating and will get you in trouble. Repeated guessing after you've been asked to stop will result in being temporarily or permanently blocked from playing Tilia.

+:* It is recommended to claim your daily at a time when you will regularly be active, so you can claim your daily on time every day.
-* Other than a reset card, try to focus all your money on [[Corda Ball]]s in the early game. Items like honey and evolution items will not be helpful in filling out your dex until much later.
+* It is recommended to buy a [[Items#Other|Daily Reset Card]] (ID 21) as soon as you have a few Corda Balls on hand and have {{CordaBuck|500}} spare. It will pay for itself immediately, as your daily is worth {{CordaBuck|600}}. Try to use the item right after claiming your daily to maximize its value. Each trainer can have a maximum of one Daily Reset Card.
-:* Evolution items in particular are very expensive; keep in mind that, for earlier gens, many evolved Pokémon are also common.
+* It is not recommended for beginning players to spend money on Honey-like items, as it will not help you fill out your dex until much later.
-* Just like the main series Pokémon games, buying 10 Corda Balls at a time will grant you an additional ball as a bonus. If you can, save your dailies until you can buy 10, since you get a couple when you claim your daily.
+* If you want to evolve (or devolve) a non-Alola Pokémon, use a Discount item instead. Discount items can be purchased with your Discount Card, which you get 1,000 of with your daily.
-* Physical keyboards are usually superior to mobile keyboards for typing speed and accuracy. That said, if you are quick with autocomplete and Pokémon names are properly loaded into that system, you may be able to gain some extra speed. NOTE: If the bot thinks you entered the name too fast, it will prevent you from catching the spawn.
+* Just like the main series Pokémon games, buying 10 Corda Balls at a time will yield an additional ball as a bonus. If you can, buy Corda Balls in multiples of 10.
-* Practice, practice, practice. Even if you don't need the Pokémon that comes up, try typing its name anyway just to make sure your typing is up to snuff when something you do need comes up. Put a period at the end or something similar to prevent yourself from catching it, if you really don't want it.
+* Physical keyboards are usually superior to mobile keyboards for typing speed and accuracy. That said, if you are quick with autocomplete and Pokémon names are properly loaded into that system, you may be able to gain some extra speed.
-* Be very aware of the rarities of various Pokémon. Starter lines and "pseudo-legendaries" ([[Dratini]], [[Larvitar]], [[Bagon]], [[Beldum]], [[Gible]], [[Deino]], and [[Goomy]] lines) in particular are often highly sought after. The Full Pokédex (shown with the "fulldex" command) has a count for every Pokémon in the game. Pokémon with lower counts are more valuable. Don't be surprised if two Pokémon that are ostensibly counterparts have different counts (e.g. [[Plusle]] and [[Minun]]).
+* Practice, practice, practice. Even if you don't need the Pokémon that spawned, try catching it anyways to make sure your typing speed is on point, so you have a better chance at catching something you do need. If the Pokémon isn't from Alola, it doesn't use a Corda Ball to catch it.
-* Newer Pokémon are often more valuable than older Pokémon of the same rarity level. In addition, Pokémon that evolve from other Pokémon of lower rarities may be less valuable (for example, [[Dratini]] is more valuable than [[Charizard]] despite both being UR, because Charizard evolves from lower rarity Pokémon). Ask a Tilia mod if you're unsure if a given trade is fair.
+* Be aware of the different rarities of various Pokémon. Starter Pokémon and pseudo-legendary Pokémon in particular are often highly sought after.
 * Don't rush trades. You should never feel bullied into making a trade, and if you think it's a bad deal, you always have the option to say no. If unsure, feel free to conduct trade negotiations publicly.
