^ Yeah max IVs.
So how did people do with Electabuzz?
I ended up getting 9 of them but I didn't play as much as I would have normally since I got 5 early at my house and was kinda tired. I also got my 16th shiny Rhyhorn randomly so yay for that.
Hopefully I am up to smash that number for Magmar. I prefer Magmar to Electabuzz anyways!

I stopped after I got 3. One of them was 84%.

So I was playing Sword last night, Isle of Armor. There's A NPC that will trade you the Kanto version of a Pokemom for the Galarian version and she wanted a Galarian Mr. Mime. I didn't have one on me, so I caught one on Rt. 10, came back, and traded with her... I got a ing shiny Mr. Mime!

^ Wow that is nice.
I didn't know traded Pokemon had a chance to be shiny!
Speaking of shinies I caught my 9th or so shiny Weedle yesterday so that was not bad.

I’m just past the 3rd badge in Sword and thanks to the wonders of Surprise trade coupled with grinding on Noctowls, I have 350 of the 400 dex caught and registered. Oh and thanks to the shiny hackers that use surprise trade to promote their channels/websites, they send Master Balls as a held item so I have 8 Master Balls so far 😭

I'm so annoyed too.
This one is my brother's that he said I could use.

This one is my brother's that he said I could use. Oh man, that sucks. I’ve been itching to play Gen 5 lately myself, but I just can’t bring myself to pay the price right now for the game. Gen 4 & 5 games have inflated quite a bit. I’ll play the long game and wait till the price drops. I’m loving Sword right now, was all buzzing earlier when I got my Dragapult. I freaking adore that Pokemon, haha.

I heard but I'm not exactly happy about some of the requirements to grow levels...

I didn't look through them yet, but I saw some where it said like 30 or 50 excellent curve ball throws. I don't have any issue with those kind of requirements. There's also going to be a lot of people that already qualify for the XP requirements, so I understand wanting to make it somewhat challenging to level up.

Wow how much are Gen 4/5 games going for? In the UK right now, £50 and upwards on all of them minus Diamond & Pearl. I sold my copy of black 2 late last year and got £65. At the time it was great, but sucks now I have the itch to play it again. I do that all the time with 4th and 5th gen. Because I don’t do full odds random encounter hunts, I don’t have a reason to continue playing once the story’s done if that makes sense. That’s a big thing for me, once the story’s done I still want to have things to do. Once you’ve beat Red in HGSS there’s nothing else to do.

^ Ok.
Damn that is a lot. It still isn't something I'd sell though since I like being able to play if I ever get the inspiration.
God breeding sucks...
I hatched a lot of eggs to get my future White 2 team ready and am only like 2/6 way there!
Tropius with Leaf Blade took forever since the natures were not passing down even though I had the everstone.. And when I did get Jolly or Adamant it had Solar Power and I wanted Chlorophyll..
I just finished breeding for my Barboach. I've never used a Whiscash so I wanted to use it. I'm using a special attacking one so needed to teach it Earth Power. I bred it with a Gyarados so it popped out with Hydro Pump (and Dragon Dance just because). Ice Beam and Surf will be its final moves.
My other team members are going to be:
Vanillux Throh Garbodor Musharna
I've also not used any of those 5th generation Pokemon so other than Tropius this team is very fresh (and even then it has been years since I trained a Tropius on a team).

I go through phases where I sell them because I get bored (and generally there’s a wrestling purchase I want to make and I see it as easy cash haha). But as I said before, I don’t see much to do after the story’s done really because of how old the games are. I don’t want to sit and play a game for 15 hours and then I’m done, I want a good 100 hours of playthrough and then do post game breeding and hunting and even at times in Gen 7 I just delete my living dex and do it again as I find that quite fun. Just something that I get excited to play and I think “oh today I need to do this and this and then that”. I just did the Gameboy Logo living dex in Gold and Silver and Red and blue. Between all 3 games it took nearly 120 hours, but it was hella fun. If I play through Gold and Silver again soon then I won’t really see the point if that makes sense.

Thanks to the wonders of Facebook, I got all the shield exclusives I needed plus my trade evolutions evolved so I now have 397 in the dex. I just need Zacian & Eternatus, plus a Type Null which you get all 3 pretty back to back in the story so I’ll have the 400 for the Shiny Charm!

Not 15 hour speed run but like 30 or so. 50 probably for the newer games that are longer.
I like having good teams and training them. Specifically people I've not used before.
