I have a love hate relationship with phases in shiny hunting. On one hand, free shiny (with technically no hunting for it)! On the other hand, just give me the thing I'm actually looking for 😭
Generally when I get to post game content I am not nearly as invested in it as I am the main game content and I’ll pretty frequently lose interest shortly after starting whatever post game the game offers me. So imagine my surprise when, upon completing the main plot of the Pokémon Legends Arceus and watching the credits roll, I was even more excited to get time to play it today than I’ve been the entire time I was pursuing the main plot
@whimsical-westbrook Heyyy, I'm in the forest? I have no idea how to find you. I don't know how strong your instincts are in that new form so I'm a little hesitant to have any of my pokemon track you down. All the ones who could find a Buziel would be potentially scary for you.
Would an Umbreon be similar enough to your size to be okay?
I got 1 more backlogged post to make since my phone card ran out!
Sadly, no progress was made with this catch as this is the 9th shiny and the 6th random encounter shiny of the game, but it's a repeat shiny.... so in the village pastures itself stays.
Still looking for that shiny buziel and hope it's a big one so I can complete both missions.
So like, obviously I’m using other pokemon as I play through the game but I like to think that Fate’s just using her canon team throughout the story lol. And that means she’s pretty much only got her litten/torracat Andie and buziel/flotzel Captain throughout the beginning of early game. I just find it funny, that this girl who knows nothing about the world and pokemon in general is somehow managing to beat up everyone with just her silly blue fire cat and otter lmao.
In the beginning I always hated that Ash traded Aipom for Buziel, but in the end I accepted it because Aipom/Ambipom has always been a free spirit with or without a trainer whether it was battles, contests or... ping-pong? I don’t feel bad about it anymore since Ambipom ended up leaving Dawn too. Like I said... A Free Spirit.
Finished these off last night. For the record book 9 should have been two thinner volumes because mid way through it changes to the 8th arc (Platinum). ~MistyMay
