Got my duo for the #UnownChallenge2025! Unown R in Legends after ~75 Solaceon Ruins resets? And Shiny Relicanth in Omega Ruby after 317 DexNav encounters. I found it at a chain of 20, so the odds were 1/200, but still super happy to have both :)

Occasionally remembered to look up from catching bugs

First shiny of #DAWeekend and also first Sword and Shield shiny after 300 hours over both games.

Probably won’t be able to hunt much this weekend with family in town, but glad I was able to find something.

2nd raticate in 2 days. Technically found after midnight but I’m counting it as 3 straight to start the year anyways. Using a level 48 repel trick which makes Munna 33% and raticate 25%. Now seems like a good time to mention I don’t have the shiny charm in this game after another 250ish encounters.

Shiny Raticate. Phase no. 1 for Munna. Can’t complain as it came after ~250 encounters I wasn’t really counting. I don’t mind this one shiny per day thing I’ve got going on to start the year.

Well that was quick. First square of my bingo card appears after 1 horde encounter. I was just testing I was in the right place and wondering why there were two Nidoran female before it sparkled. I wouldn’t mind this luck continuing through the year.

Finished my Shiny Hunting Bingo card. Thanks @sirtoastytoes.bsky.social for the tutorial and motivation for me to actually plan out my hunts for once.

I have the rest of my HG DTQ, some hunts I've had in my head for a while, as well as some random hunts that sound fun to fill out the board.

Shiny Cyndaquil! First ever full odds hunt and it was my target too. 4,484 resets for a total of 13,352 seen. Solo hunted this over 3 weeks. (Does it still count for #RanchWeek?)

Gonna turn this into a DTQ, bring it on Mareep! Also peep the nature.

My first ever radar hunt resulted in 2 shiny Ralts! Got super lucky and my first chain past 7 got to 40. #RanchWeek
