:* Otherwise, you do not need to have a Corda Ball to catch the Pokémon, and a Corda Ball will not be used.
  
−
* Try to buy a [[Items#Other| daily reset card (item 21)]] as soon as you have a few [[Corda Ball| Corda Balls]] on hand and can still afford one. It will pay for itself in just 2 uses. Try to time using the reset card after getting your daily money in order to maximize the value you get from it. Each trainer can only have one, which makes it easier to keep up with veteran players.

* 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.

:* 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.
  
−
* Other than a reset card, focus all your money on [[Corda Ball| Corda Balls]] in the early game. Items like honey and evolution items will not be helpful in filling out your dex until much later.  
+
* 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 23 hours to claim your daily. Afterwards, you can claim your daily every 23 hours.

* 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.
  
−
* If you're patient, try to buy [[Corda Ball| Corda Balls]] in groups of 10 (which requires two dailies). You'll get a bonus ball, just like the main series Pokémon games.
+
* 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.

* Always have one ball on hand if you can help it. You never know when a good ultra rare or shiny may pop up.

* Don't worry about catching duplicates; there are plenty of veteran players who will take your commons in exchange for other commons that you need. Generation 1/2 commons have basically little value to longtime players.
