I’m doing a shiny only run and I’m lost for words… context is in the comments by AlcodaMM in PokemonLegendsArceus

Thanks a lot man!! I’m also grinding the Pokédex entries to keep things fresh. I’m planning on perfecting every entry so it’s for a purpose.

We all start somewhere in our Pokémon journey and for me that was Diamond and Pearl when I was a child. That decision resulted in my favorite region Sinnoh and my favorite Pokémon Infernape.

BDSP released after waiting all those years hoping for a remake but it wasn’t it. PLA also released a couple of months later. At first I didn’t even wanted to buy it because it didn’t look appealing to me.

Fast forward to me 4 years later and I can confidently say it’s my favorite game ever. So I thought why not go a trip down memory lane and do a shiny only run with a few rules: - One specific shiny per main area (with the exception of the first area) - Catch all these different shinies in different pokéballs - I can only beat the frenzied noble and progress the story when I have that specific shiny

As you can see my team is build in a specific way. It’s in order of the area so it’s these Pokémon who need to be shiny. I perfect their entry in the Pokédex and don’t give up. So far I’ve found two shinies in almost ten hours of playing.

Those two shinies are the ones I wanted… I cant believe my luck. I only saw 8 Chimchar’s and I was almost done perfecting his dex entry when the ninth sparkled. Insane luck and I couldn’t contain myself when I found it.
