Donkey Kong Bananza is very fun. I can't help myself. Completionism. It fuels me.

1 hour 57 in game minutes between shinies, not bad at all. I was looking for cufant when this fella showed up, not complaining though I don't enjoy hunting in this area.

I'm using time to measure hunts as opposed to encounters because encounter tracking in scarvi is annoying and impractical.

Finally, after exactly 10 hours, I have gotten my next shiny. I really love grimer so I'm super glad I got my target on this one. On to the next one!

100 minutes later, I accidentally find a shiny tauros. Well, I was purposely ko-ing all the tauros in the area because I was scared I was gonna fail one. Turns out, I was right to be anxious. On to the next one.

That was very quick. Just over an hour of in game time but I was hunting for literally a few minutes. I had an actual target this time and I'm very happy to say Swablu was the target. I've been very lucky in this badge quest.

No shiny charm btw <3

1 hour and 23 minutes, another very quick section? Will the next one be the same? Probably. My shiny team is very basic but Skiddo is one I actually really wanted so I'm glad.

This is all full odds by the way.

Very quick one after that long one, I was still deciding if I wanted to attempt to go for anything in particular. Not complaining about 1 hour 2 minutes between shinies after the last one though. On to the next one.

9 Hours and 45 minutes and the next shiny is here. Had a rock type encounter on because I wanted Klawf (or nacli) but it just wasn't meant to be. The gap between these badges is short, on to the next one.

Second shiny of my badgequest, Mareep after 5 hours and a minute of playtime. Katy was obviously very easy. I am still stunnes by how beautiful the game is now.

Ok, I lied. I got a switch 2. Its worth it, Scarvi finally look good. Better than good, great.

Anywho, Shiny Fletchling at 48 in game minutes on a shiny only playthrough of Violet (also my first time playing Violet).

Wright as in Phoenix Wright.

Absolute state of this.

This one. Was not. Particularly. Easy.

Roxanne required grinding to level 20 something, however doing so let me max out my attack evs so it wasn't so bad. Cycling Road may was also tricky. Tate and Liza took hours of grinding. League took a fair amount of resetting.

This was, obviously, not a dificult run. It was, however, maybe the trickiest of the three big legends. As far as it could be, at least. The physical/special split was not the nicest to Rayquaza and its typing isn't the most ideal grand scheme. Still though, it was plenty easy.

This was very easy but not quite as easy as Kyogre. I struggled a little with Tate and Liza as opposed to not struggling at any point of the main game with Kyogre. No level grinding was needed, it was just a case of bad luck. Groudon did have a slightly easier time vs Wallace which is funny

I don't think there is an easier pokemon solo run to do than any game with Kyogre. Well there probably is, but, very few. This was fun. Easy and fun. Would recommend.

Sceptile was easy peasy. Only real issue the entire run was winnona but that was resolved when I came back with a few extra levels. Access to Earthquake and Dragon Claw trivialises the pokémon league.

Grovyle was easier than Treecko to solorun with, obviously. Flannery was actually quite easy but Winnona was actually a bit tougher due to the level dif vs Treecko. Other than that, Drake was the only challenge. Salamence is a beast.

Decided I'm gonna beat pokemon emerald with all of the hoenn pokemon. On their lonesome. I don't use items in battle.

Treecko was fun. Flannery was tricky, had to grind about 5 levels to beat it. Winnona's Skarmory was annoying but otherwise easy. Drake took a lot of soft resetting.

Beat fire red with just a corphish. Was pretty fun. Most of the run was super easy but struggled a lot at the elite four with agatha and blue. Special defense being so low wasn't ideal. No items in battle.

Just beat fire red with a horsea. Just a horsea. It was fun. A lot of rng. No items in battle. Died a lot. No other pokemon except for hms. Was pretty fun. Wouldn't reccomend.
