Yesterday I found my 2nd shiny Hoenn starter!! No phases in between which is so awesome, and very quickly too!

After 1,953 encounters, he has arrived!

Everyone meet Skipper!

I found him on Ruby, on my brother's old gameboy sp. This one isn't backlit so the colors were uh, lackluster to say it nicely. But I actually managed to see the sparkles this time!! By far the most reactive I've been over a shiny, I scared my best friend on a call because I yelled "NO WAY" without them having the context I was shiny hunting 😅 I was honestly terrified trying to get through the starter battle because this gameboy is known for being temperamental and sometimes freezing if pressure is put on it wrong, and my hands were shaking from excitement lol

But we came out unscathed!! Here he is on my childhood gameboy sp!

And with that, my final target is treecko! I am most likely going to buy a cart reader soon so I can safely backup my shinies now. I've never had any issues with legit carts losing data, but you can never be too careful. plus it will make it easier to do resets for treecko, because I can just backup this save and reload it once the hunting is done :] I don't have the heart to separate Skipper from his original trainer, especially since it is on Ruby (the first pokemon game I ever played) and has my name for the trainer as I would have put it in as a kid.

Happy hunting!

I finally finished a shiny hunt I started all the way back on July 22nd, 2024- A shiny starter in Pokemon Soul Silver!

I initially started this hunt with the thought that it would be an easy beginner full odds hunt to get into proper full odds hunting. That uh... didn't pan out. It is actually the longest hunt I have ever done to date.

Chikorita finally shined for me over a year later, after 42,954 encounters- five times over odds. It's crazy to realize how many things have changed in my life since when I started this hunt.

He is named the last name of my best friend @cresentmoontea's character, who was on the phone with me just now when I caught him!!

I am so glad to finally be done with this hunt and actually get to play my game now 😭

Unsure if I will do any more serious hunts until I complete the game, but I know I have at least one or two more hunts planned for this account for sure due to its unique trainer id number. 👀

Shiny Alpha Yanma in 3 permutations! Thank goodness because the permutations were sooo difficult for yanma for some reason...

Shiny roaming Gimmighoul on the first day of the event! I'm relieved that I only need one 😅

I posted about this previously on a group on tumblr, but here is my rarest catch to date!! Shiny female torchic! And such a good ID number for her too~ My best friend @cresentmoontea helped me name her!

She arrived after 2 phases and 135 resets, which is insanely fast. Even when adding all the resets from the previous phases, it added up to only 7,210 resets total, still under odds! The two phases were shiny uncatchable pooches, bur frankly it could have been a lot worse!

I'll be sure to post if I manage to find the other two starters as well!

As per usual I haven't been keeping up here lol. Ive made tons of progress on my sheet though! Still need to organize everything on home and update everything priperly. Lots of unevolved mons make things complicated.

Caught a shiny alpha spiritomb today after 32 permutations! Named him Malevolence 😈 Though with a lax nature I'm not sure how much evil he really is up to lol

Man I have not been keepin up with this blog well enough 😅 Still actively hunting. Most recent catches were a bunch of ralts and Sprigatito (2 females too! Woooo) on the Pokemon Go community days, and a psyduck in legends arceus.

Currently spending lots of time on my first full odds hunt: A shiny starter in Soul Silver. It has been on and off since the middle of last year because I am WAY over odds now... Tonight I hit 31,251 encounters... I took a couple months of a break when I first hit 16,000 and am back at it agin. I was told this would be a fast hunt 🫠 and frankly this is why I have been avoiding full odds hunts, I barely have the patience for this lmao.

I think if I can't find one by around 40,000-50,000 I will just play through the game as normal up to the point I can breed. I have a fun ID I want on two other shiny pokemon! After that I might reset it and try again. We shall see.

I really need to update my spreadsheet but... frankly that sounds like a lot of effort right now. I've also been debating buying Pokémon HOME so I can better organize, but a yearly subscription for storage sounds icky.
