Look who I made friends with yesterday!! I'm sooo happy! I've been trying to get this yellow birb on and off since 2011 😭 Tried to Masuda Method it in BW, to Devnax it in ORAS, to hunt Altaria in USUM ... Nothing. But now he's mine, finally!!!! ;w; 💕
I called him Vogil which is my headcanon for Gilbird's actual name (Vogel + Gilbert) 💛
I love the Swablu animations in this game. Look, it was pecking the ground 💕
Two like hatchlings sitting in a tree! I’m hindsight, an Altaria definitely wouldn’t fit in that hole in the tree, but the idea was just too cute!
Ever since their 2018 shiny debut in Pokémon Go, I’ve always gotten at least one shiny Swablu a year, so I wanted both a regular and a shiny Swablu on this ATC.
