Exp. Charm Location and How to Get

The Fairy Feather is a new item that can be obtained as a reward after completing all 6 Normal difficulty rounds of Ogre Oustin'. This item is a held item that boosts the power of the holder's Fairy-type moves.

Maximize Rewards By Playing on the Highest Difficulty Available

50+ Mochi in one go!

We recommend always playing on the highest available difficulty to maximize your chances of obtaining a wider variety of items in greater quantities. Higher scores yield more rewards. Higher difficulty rounds, lasting longer, naturally offer more stages to clear, balloons to pop, and berries to collect, resulting in higher scores.

Ogre Oustin' Tips and Strategies

The rules of Ogre Oustin' are simple: pop balloons, collect berries, and protect them from wild Pokemon. To improve your chances of success, our team has prepared tips for you to consider.

1. Play Multiplayer as Much as Possible
2. Don't Deposit Berries Until You Carry 30
3. After Depositing, Have One Person Defend the Tables
4. Head to the Edges of the Course and Work Your Way In
5. A Good Course Can Make the Difference

Play Multiplayer as Much as Possible

The number of berries required per player gets halved if you play with four players, so it is easier to complete in multiplayer instead of playing alone. By playing with other trainers, you are you need to collect lesser berries than if you went solo. As such, if you are able to play Ogre Oustin with others, you should! As the game only gets easier with more people.

Number of Required Berries per Level

The total number of necessary Berries is determined by the level, and the number for each berry is randombly divided per color. The total number of necessary Berries also depends on the number of players playing together.

Don't Deposit Berries Until You Carry 30

You can carry up to 30 Berries at once, and any extras will go to waste. Ensure you collect exactly 30 before promptly returning to the Berry Tables.

If you deposit Berries early and return for more, you'll face wild Pokemon attempting to steal from your tables. This is the most challenging aspect of the minigame, so it's crucial to minimize it whenever possible.

After Depositing, Have One Person Defend the Tables

The first player who deposits Berries can take on the role of defending the Berry Tables against invading Pokemon, while others can focus on collecting more. Only one defender is needed.

Be vigilant for Munchlax or Greedents attempting to sneak up and snatch the berries. When this happens, press R to roar and scare them away. The roar has a small area of effect, so it can scare off Pokemon even if they are behind you. In higher-level stages, watch out for Snorlax, which moves faster and consumes berries more rapidly.

Head to the Edges of the Course and Work Your Way In

Between stages, once you've deposited the necessary berries, a brief peaceful period occurs when the map resets and displays the new berry requirements. Use this time efficiently! Spread your team out to start from the course edges, so when the round begins, you can progress inward. This approach makes subsequent trips during the same round safer since you won't have to travel far from the tables. You can even begin a round directly on top of balloons to pop them instantly.

A Good Course Can Make the Difference

Various maps are available, and they can significantly impact gameplay. You'll remain on the same course for all stages, so you'll know early in stage 1 whether you have a favorable course or not. While you can't select the stage, it may be worthwhile to reset until you find a favorable course.

Our top recommendation is Paradise Barrens, a rocky course shaped like a big donut. This course allows players to zoom around in a lap grabbing everything without worrying about covering all the different areas of the course. On the other hand, if you stumble into the apple orchard course in Apple Hills, it'll be a pain to deal with all of the fences in your way.

How to Unlock Ogre Oustin'

Ogre Oustin' Rules

Pop Ogre Balloons

The goal of this minigame is to pop balloons and get a required number of Berries in each stage. While riding on either Koraidon or Miraidon, you have to pop Ogre Balloons scattered around the course.

Collect Berries and Yell to Scare Off Pokemon

After collecting Berries, you'll need to bring them to Berry Tables located at the start of the stage. Once you've placed Berries, Pokemon like Skwovet, Greedent, Munchlax, and even Snorlax will appear to steal your Berries, and players will need to press R to Roar and scare them off.
