People often ask me and the wife if we are having children. The answer is yes, and these are our children.

Also, considering where Cubone's name came from, it was almost certainly meant to be pronounced "Kuh-bone" and not "Kyu-bone". I always thought it was supposed to sound similar to "cue ball" because it's got a white, hard head (and also "cute"), but I guess that was not the original intention.

Reading over notes from Pokemon's localization team about how English Pokemon names were chosen, and it's given me some interesting insight. Farfetch'd's name was partially chosen because its Red & Blue sprite looked like it was "fetching" a stick, which I never considered.

Pikipek community day meant that it was time to hunt it! I got it after an SOS chain of 204!

So since December community day is always a repeat of every CD from that year, does that mean I'm going to hunt the remaining 13 CD Pokemon from 2025 for December CD?

(The answer is no, I'm not doing that)

Ranch Week means I guess it's time to pick this hunt back up

(I'm only 650 encounters into it so I'm not gonna get it during the event but can you imagine)

Wow I never expected Nintendo to officially acknowledge a Smash Bros mod but here we are

Had a dream that they revealed a Mega Clefairy and it just looked like Jigglypuff (not Clefairy, mind you) with shiny Spectrier's hair

Artistic interpretation:

My #1 priority in Pokemon Go is completing my Pokedex, so it's gotten to the point where I'm just hoarding every incubator and Rare Candy I get, because there's always going to be some new Pokemon that's exclusive to eggs or requires a stupid amount of candy to evolve. Sometimes both.
November 17, 2025 at 6:23 AM
This was the single most annoying evolution in this game and I'm so glad to be done with it, lmao

My wife's favorite Pokemon is Dragonite, and they wanted a shiny alpha Dragonite more than anything in Z-A.

Being the amazing husband I am, I of course got it for them. 🥰

Fun fact! Pokemon Go Wild Area has begun in Japan, adding the Impidimp line to Pokemon Go. This is significant, because that means that the total number of Pokemon catchable in Go is 926 - meaning that Go is officially less than 100 Pokemon away from having the full National Pokedex!
November 7, 2025 at 4:01 PM
The base game of Legends Z-A didn't add any new Mega Evolutions for any gen 9 Pokemon (as there were no gen 9 Pokemon in the game), but it also didn't have any new Megas for any gen 3 Pokemon either. These two fix both of those issues, and now every gen has gotten at least one new Mega this game.

Recently learned about the injustice that is Taillow having not been available in the wild since ORAS, so I decided to hunt it in ORAS to show that it wasn't forgotten. This was my first time doing DexNav hunting, and it paid off! After multiple broken chains, I got it with a chain of just 13!

Also, is its pose where it puts its hands on its hips supposed to be a reference to the Starmen from Earthbound? 🤔 That would be pretty cool if so.
November 5, 2025 at 5:00 PM
Okay I think it's been long enough (but I'll just say Legends Z-A spoilers in case anyone still has that blacklisted)

Mega Starmie is fucking hilarious. With how much the intrigue of it is built up in the story, the end result just being Starmie with longer legs actually made me laugh out loud.

The only reason Shining Pearl is in the over 100 hours section is because of my damn Grand Underground hunt that went over triple odds btw lmao
November 5, 2025 at 4:36 PM
So weird that Nintendo's been collecting this information for years but they're only just now letting us see it, on an eShop app of all things.

Anyway, everyone else is posting their most played, so here's mine. It checks out.
November 5, 2025 at 4:19 PM
I was prepared to potentially phase on Mime Jr - it was a 60/40 chance in Jr's favor. What I was *not* prepared for was to go over triple odds twice! This legitimately made me have to check if I did indeed have the shiny charm on this file. (I do)

But that's just how hunting goes sometimes! 🤷
November 4, 2025 at 2:24 AM
So this was supposed to be a silly little Halloween hunt. I'd horde hunt Roggenrola, tweet "I got a rock", and it'd be funny. Like Charlie Brown! As these Silly One Day Hunts™️ go though, it took longer than a day. But little did I realize it would break my record for longest 1/1365 phase twice over!

Why's my wife's hot glue gun kinda look like Zygarde tho
