Some puzzle pieces should have a 100% drop rate, such as the ones from Royal Tunnel, Gem Cauldron, and Bulletin Board. Others should have higher drop rates, but not a 100%.

There are 72 Royal Tunnel pieces available. The current fastest way to get them is by repeating the Beginner Path over and over, where you'll have a chance to get a piece at the end. 72*20 = 1440 levels, and that'd be higher if you answer wrong and start again. By having a 100% drop rate, it wouldn't take any more than 1440 levels.

Gem Cauldron has a similar issue. 48 pieces, but a ~1/4 drop rate. Given how expensive it is to brew evolution stones (~15k PD worth of gems), pieces should have a 100% drop rate.

Same with the Bulletin Board. The cost of the items is often greater than the reward, especially at higher levels. There are 48 pieces to get, so it can take a while.

The Emera Square pieces are obtained from the Bug contest. You have a chance to get them when rating a Pokémon. 24 Pokémon isn't a lot, so maybe a 50% chance would be better, which'd take 48 Pokémon.

There are 72 Rumble pieces. I have completed 1320 missions and only got 39 of them. Maybe a 10% chance would work? [Edit: got the rest by spamming 5 minute rumbles. Maybe it’d be better if the chance scaled with duration?]
