Should my Lillypup be leading my party to pick up items or can it just be my party Pokemon?

Question

Should I keep it as leading or can it still pick up when it is 6th Pokemon?

Fixed it.

Answer 1

Pick Up is active which ever spot your Lillipup is in.

However, it depends on the level of the Pokemon with Pick Up as to what items you get. Lillipup also loses its Pickup ability upon evolving.

I think it has to be a higher level to pick up better items.

It doesn't. I make an army of Lillipups early in the game to collect Items.

Level determines what kind of items you pick up. Level 1 Lillipup will still Pick Up stuff, but just less rare items.

Answer 2

It does not have to lead basically.It can be any position(1st, 2nd etc) as long as it is in the party, pickup will work.
