[Ding! Pokéblock proficiency gained...] [Ding! Pokéblock Crafting has advanced to Master Tier.]
A few days earlier, after just over a year of patient, persistent effort, Li Wei had successfully advanced his Pokéblock Crafting to Master Tier.
Back when his Pokéblock Crafting was still at Top Tier,
as long as the Berries were of normal quality, Li Wei had over a 66% chance of producing perfect-quality Pokéblocks.
As his proficiency drew closer to Master Tier, that probability had risen to over 75%.
Just as Li Wei had expected, Master Tier Pokéblock Crafting had indeed brought a qualitative leap.
Pokéblock Crafting (Master Tier): Your knowledge of Berries is second nature. With normal-quality Berries and standard procedures, you have a 90% chance of producing perfect-quality Pokéblocks.
But that was nothing unusual. His success rate had already been about that high.
In fact, he had to adjust the process a little to reliably produce high-quality Pokéblocks instead.
The real changes came in what followed.
When using two or more types of rare Berries, there is a small chance of producing golden perfect Pokéblocks. When using four or more types of rare Berries, there is an extremely small chance of producing rainbow perfect Pokéblocks.

As things stood, Li Wei had some chance of making golden Pokéblocks, but rainbow Pokéblocks were practically impossible.
That was because the only rare Berry Li Wei currently had was the Micle Berry, and it was still being grown.
The good news was that Salac Berries and Tamato Berries also counted as rare Berries, though they ranked
