After 254 eggs (shattering my previous gen 2 gene breeding record of 142), I have finally got shiny Delibird. Originally intended to hatch by Christmas, but just in time before the new year. #ShinyPokemon

2nd picture shows when I reached 225 and ran out of space to count.

So I finally got a GB operator. I added in the event to access Birth Island since this has been a dream hunt of mine and applied Nora's Emerald RNG fix patch. Then, this happened in not even like 30 encounters. #ShinyPokemon

My new longest gen 2 gene breeding hunt. Shiny Sneasel in 142 eggs! #ShinyPokemon

I can't believe it has been 10 years since we discovered that the Serebii Pokéarth map was in a random house in Dewford Town in ORAS.

It was 100% unintentional but still a great feeling that something of mine showed up in the games.

Updates on my shiny hunting:
I've spent the past 2.5 months hunting Rayquaza (55+ hours, completed earlier today) in Brilliant Diamond and Mewtwo in Red (135+ hours)

Will continue to hunt Mewtwo, with also some Crystal egg hatching featuring some winter/holiday themed Pokémon.

I've finally got a shiny. The drought ends now. Hopefully, more shinies to come soon 👀

This year, I participated in Team Showdown's full odds shiny event. I was able to get 4 shiny Pokémon in the span of just 5 days in Pokémon Crystal. Here are the shiny Pokémon I got (Grimer was in just 2 encounters!)

My favorite Pokemon (including favorite shiny from each type and generation) as of 2023. It'll be interesting to see how this evolves over time. This has probably already changed since then.
