You Can Only Reset A Few Times Randomly

Even if you return to the mass outbreak in the target area, if another Pokemon's mass outbreak flag is set, the mass outbreak of the target Pokemon will be overridden. The amount of times the targeted Pokemon's mass breakout occurs is determined at random.

You Can Start Over When You Save Data

You can resume the game and start over if you store the save data with the location of the Mass Outbreak, even if you switch to another Pokemon. Don't forget to turn off the auto save feature so it doesn't save automatically.
