What's your native Vivillon? Mine's Savannah, I can get pretty much everything I got with starters using them.
I know Vivillion has a lot of patterns but what's special about it? Really I've seen a lot of people
talk about it but I don't get why they like it so much
Collecting all formes, that's it. It has 18 pattern that are spread across the countries of the world (and in case of Brazil, USA and some other countries, States, although only two states from Brazil get a different pattern other than Savannah).
Here's my own full collection. But even if you don't find them special, you can still take advantage of others who do by putting them on the GTS, you can even get legendaries sometimes (though they're way less guaranteed and I have to put some attractive like a Lucky Egg in them). It's also worth noting that the patterns (excluding the Modern/Elegant) are more worth at midnight when there's a lot of japs playing who only have the Elegant pattern, which is by far the most useless one for being as common as grainsand on a desert. But pokés like Scizor and such you can likely get any time of the day, unless you have the patterns mentioned above (Polar also kinda lost its worth but they probably still work).
It's also worth mentioning that Sandstorm and Ocean are the most worthy ones. Sandstorm is from Saudi Arabia/Arab Emirates and Ocean is from Hawaii/Caribbean. The ones I got weren't even from natives. Ocean was from some girl who was holding a giveaway since she has two copies and can restart her game on the other under a different country. Ocean was from some other girl on Reddit that was actually American.
