Good luck. Froslass is cool. I just wish she was stronger. Base 80 Special Attack is weak. I know they reduced her defenses by 10 to give her +30 to Speed (in comparison to Glalie's 80 base stats across the board) but I wish they would have just made her have like 50 Attack while they were at it so that she could get +20 in Special Attack for 100 base Special Attack to go along with 110 base Speed. Glalie needed the mega, it’s a confusing one because that whole line just isn’t that strong. I agree, bump Frosslas’s attack down to give it a buff that would make it somewhat more viable.

Yeah Mega Glalie used that +100 to at least make it much stronger offensively.
I hate how some Pokemon got Megas whereas their counterparts didn't.
Justice for Froslass, Butterfree, and Slowking!

I’m not gonna start a Frosslass fan club here, but at least Buttrerfree got a Gigantamax form and Slowking got a Regional variant. Saying that, I actually got my female Shiny Snorunt today so it’s now a Frosslass. Onto a second Paras now, need to evolve one to complete the line.

That's true but still I much prefer Megas.
Gigantomax is stupid to me but the regional variants are fine.

Oh me too pal, I’m just not a Gen 8 fan though so always give me Megas over the Dynamax stuff.
I’ve had a pretty good past day and a half. Got Shiny Paras at just under 300 SOS encounters, it’s now a Parasect so that lines complete. I started hunting a third Snorunt today and for some reason I said to myself it’s gonna be a short hunt. It was, got it in 26 encounters. Played through the Elite 4 and did some post game stuff before Rainbow Rocket and went back and hunted Dedenne.
It was an annoying hunt as I was using a Volt Absorb Jolteon, I didn’t realise it didn’t draw in the attack so when it called Togedemaru that had sturdy I had to pray it didn’t discharge. Eventually it did and my harvest dedenne was gone so I just continued on and false swipes a Dedenne every 20 or so encounters. It was made even worse when a Shiny Togedemaru was called in but I killed it and continued. That was at 135 chain, thankfully at 216 it called in a Shiny Dedenne so that was a relief cause that hunt sucked!!
I went back on Ultra Moon and continued my Kyurem hunt. Started at 1400 SR’s from the last time I played and got it in under 400 SR’s tonight so glad to be done with that one. Just the lake trio and the gen 5 genies and I’m done with all legends that are huntable at this point.
Going back to Ultra Sun to do Rainbow Rocket now. I’m at 200 hours and haven’t beaten the post game. I legit never spend that time on a playthrough but this has been hella fun!!

2 Shiny Aipoms and a Natu for me tonight in Ultra Sun, and I also did Rainbow Rocket. Maxed out money so bought a ton of items and got my Festival Plaza to 97. I’m currently hunting another Natu to evolve and complete the line. Next up after that I’m gonna soft reset Wimpod on Route 8 to evolve into Golisopod and complete that line. Only two SOS hunts I still need to do are Emolga & Pyroar.

I caught another shiny Ralts (have a lot from Community Day of course) yesterday. It sucks but had to catch it.
Update on Let's Go Eevee:
Alolan Ninetales Eevee Alolan Raichu Golduck Victreebel Charizard
My team is level 50-51.
I beat Koga, explored all the routes around Fuchsia City and last saved at Cinnabar Island. I'm going to clear the water route north of Cinnabar and then fly back to Saffron to beat the Fighting Dojo, get Sabrina's badge and finally do Silph Co.

Funny story.. well not funny haha, but funny I never knew that.
I didn't realise the ability magic bounce knocks back mean look. Well, the shiny Natu I got had magic bounce. So after I knocked out the one I was chaining off of, I was praying the shiny didn't teleport. It didn't. I had one chance, boom.. Master ball! I knew I kept it for a reason.
Yeah, I had to Master ball a freaking Natu. Tbh, I couldn't be bothered sitting doing another chain so I have no regrets. It's now a beautiful "I don't look any different" shiny Xatu.
We gotta keep keep moving on.

Yeah shiny Natu is a disappointment.

Good luck during the special one day research on Meowth.
I already have a shiny normal version but another would be cool.
Most of the 60 encounters will be Alolan Meowth who I still need to get a shiny of so that will hopefully happen later today.

Not sure how many I’ve gone through so far, but nothing shiny. They’ve all been Alolan encounters save for one set of tasks where they were regular Meowth plus a Galarian as the final reward.

I ended up getting back-to-back shinies at one point, so I’ll happily take that.

I couldn't find a ing Nanap Berry to save my life so I got stuck on the 9th wave of research tasks for the longest time. Seriously I opened all my gifts and not one gave me what I needed!
I finally went to get something to eat and got one after spinning stops but I only had like 30 minutes left so I knew I wouldn't finish and instead just tried to do as much as possible. I probably got to like wave 13/20..
Idk why they make berries so damn rare. They really should be purchasable (like say 25 of any berry type for like 30-50 coins)...
While I failed at getting a shiny Alolan Meowth I did get another shiny Kantonian Meowth.
So better than nothing but I wish I did better.

So better than nothing but I wish I did better. I don't think Nanab berries come out of gifts. Berries are pretty common from gym pokestops, so luckily when I'm at home I'm in range of a gym. It didn't take me terribly long to get 3 nanab berries both times with that task. I even got one from a regular stop too.

I'm pissed the Meowth event was endless. I like completing events to get that check mark.
