Aspiring game developer and avid shiny hunter. If there’s anything I can regularly ramble delightfully about, it’s the adorable pocket monsters that quickly stole my heart as a child.

✨ On Focus Hunts ✨
Mimikyu 8001
Turtonator 6948
An encounter to show off how cool he is.

I managed to remember to take the clip of finding it in my shock and surprise. I was so afraid that it wouldn’t show up in this screen for some reason— I’d been checking the batches in the boxes afterward just in case. I had 20 Cranidos per reset and this was number 15!

Out of the three, Popplio was the kindest to me (Litten and Rowlet took over 8000 and 7000 resets respectively). I hope to see you posting about how you found this beautiful lil thing soon. May it appear in the next thousand. ✨

witnessing this ordeal inspired me to draw this today

I am SO excited for this watch.

There are differing numbers between these two but it does seem the general consensus is the ride Pokémon do decrease it by some amount. I think I first ran into it accidentally

Don’t all the ride Pokémon decrease encounter rates or is this referring to something else I’m unaware of lol

Best of luck for this lil bug ✨

So glad to have *the* Dedenne stamp of approval!

I had been debating if I should finish out my night with another try at Cranidos in BDSP for fossil week, or doing more encounters for these DTQs. At 1195 for phase 6, a docile and alert to sounds Dedenne appears, shining beautifully. I’m so very happy to have gotten Dee Dee 🤎

I still choose to hope you get it on/before 30 🍀 I believe I believe I believe
August 30, 2025 at 8:25 AM
I would most definitely be down! I’ve been thinking of the mere idea of a shiny race and had no idea who I’d ask lol
August 30, 2025 at 3:09 AM
This is completely and utterly crazy. To completely oppose the one that went 4x odds for the DTQ, we have this pretty lil Adamant gal to round out phase 5 at a mere 647 encounters. I love Mudbray 🧡

INCREDIBLE!!! That’s sooooo pretty, too. Lapras 💜

5367 brings the third Haunter to town…or, rather, to the thrifty megamart. Meet Murasaki, a mild and somewhat vain gal that decided barely over odds is enough to call an end to phase 6. I love her dearly— perhaps she’ll be the open arms (open hands???) to beckon Mimikyu out of hiding.

I— okay. 3448 encounters later gives this gal. Yes, she’s blinking for her photo, but it’s endearing. She WAS lonely when I found her, so I’m glad she won’t be with her brother and two Charjabugs that preceded her. And she hates to lose, which makes sense since she beat out the Turtonator.

I am SO glad to see this on my feed. Congratulations on the queen bee— princess bee? Whatever, she’s beautiful!
August 23, 2025 at 5:25 AM
I adore Mudbray more and more each time I see one
August 13, 2025 at 4:56 PM
Phase 3 for Turtonator appears after 5079 encounters! And of course, it’s a 10%— the one we’ve previously gotten, in fact. But Ula is pretty darn cool. I hear he likes to enter marathons for the experience.

Onward and upward from here we go!
August 12, 2025 at 7:55 PM
Best of luck on the cat. 🍀 Feel like you could definitely be getting it soon.
