I'm sick of the electric rat. I'm sick of having to use a Razzberry AND a Great Ball AND get a Great Throw AND a Curveball to have a chance of catching a CP 109 (level 6ish) electric rat.

(also sick of not being able to say "Nope, not gonna catch you, you bleeping rat." because of the 300 Stardust instead of 100 Stardust... ARGH. Bad me.)

Yep except i do run unless less then 200cp not going to waste ultras on that thing, complete none event. I do need a double candy event.

What?! I just use regular pokeballs... They escape 3 times at most and I get the catch 99% of the time

They always seem to make shiny variants and 300 Stardust rewards of Pokemon that are 1) Annoyingly hard to catch 2) Not common enough to be everywhere outside of its event 3) no meta use 4) unable to evolve or unreasonable to evolve for xp or usage.

Notable examples:
- Delibird
- Pikachu
- Luvdisc
- Sableye

300 stardust is the only reason I bother with them. Razzberry and an ultraball feels like a waste for an immediate transfer, but for the equivalent of three catches worth of stardust ... eh, fine I'll catch the stupid rat.

An actual response to the post.
It's a relic from that one time there was a glitch that displayed incorrect/absent hats for the various event pikas. Many players didn't realize, and transferred most/all their event mons without thinking.
It's a bit annoying, particularly if you use a plus and might end up with dozens of them you then need to transfer one by one, but it's probably better to have the feature than not, just in case another glitch happens in the future.
This feature also applies to legendaries, though far fewer players will be affected by that.
