i was super worried about this going over odds, cause it is a VERY slow hunt, i did about 500-ish encounters before speedrunning shining pearl on a profile that could get the azure flute just to speed up the process, and that was the game that got the shiny! switch 1/4096 SRs is something else

i started crystal but gave up quickly seeing how insanely grindy section 1 of that is. larvitar is a rare encounter in dark cave, and you need to level up on such weak pokemon its just not worth it.

ive been so excited for this!! i know your guides for stuff like this are usually much more helpful for me so im gonna set this up in the new year as i get closer and closer to finishing my shiny sinnoh living dex
