That sounds like its a game manicanic... and if so it dosent work like that in this scenario Faintree takes many inspirations from RPG video games (Pokemon mainly), but even then. It's not meant to be 100% exactly like a video game. Heck, certain things are changed around in order for it to be intergrated into a more "realistic" setting.

Game mechanics are things that are only applied just for the sake of gameplay. Just like how any turn-based game has "turns" in them only to make it easier for players to figure out what to do next.

So yeah, game machanics don't exist in Faintree.
