the 2025 version, for every pair except Holiday Arven since I’ll just get him on mix in a couple weeks

oh I so wish I could spoil images on here but a random shiny Patrat from a not super fast shiny hunting spot! Only 24 more shinies to go for my first playthrough!

Been a bit since my last Cookie Run post but I closed out the season on a good note! I ended up clinching 5th NA which while not necessarily my goal given my winning ways still is plenty impressive, with the following stats to back it up. The last month was rough post-ban, but 55-15 in games is nice

I have been looking for this fella FOREVER in PLA, finally excited to add a second of my favorite shiny (and favorite Pokémon in general) to the collection! #shinypokemon

Second local Brave League was also a massive success! Qualified as the 4 seed this time due to some massive misplays in Swiss but clutched it out when it really mattered. Borrowed 2 TKs from the TO which I will be returning after the 2 I ordered come in 😆

Took down my first Brave League tournament of season 1! My LGS allowed proxies this week since the game is new and product is scarce, so I decided to get a nice yellow deck together. The purple matchup was difficult af and I had to pull 3 wins out against it including back to back ones in top cut 😧

Redemption for my 21st place in Ground/Dragon High Score event. Now to collect a top 20 title for each of Legendary Gauntlet and Super Sparring!

don’t worry, I’m “not trying hard” this High Score event, I’m just on pace for my best score ever after first drafts of 3 teams

OKAY BUT THE IOS BATTERY ICON IS AN ACTUAL BATTERY THO

oh hey I held top 30, that’s a first for me in Legendary Gauntlet!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 20/04/2025
Another gauntlet has come and is going soon, and this one has my best performance both by ranking and by number of clears. I PB’d by 30 in the shortest Legendary Gauntlet that has ever run, and with a bit better planning I feel pretty good that next time, I could get top 20!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 06/04/2025
I now have a 75% win rate in my March Madness groups (I won one last year too) - so maybe I still do have a bit of an athlete/analyst in me

He’s just Nate. 499/500 sync pairs collected, with the last one being the now-unobtainable Jessie & Arbok. It’s as close to dexmax as I’m going to get, and now I can stop using “I don’t have them” as an excuse

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
Unfortunately this post is coming to report my ultimate failure to hit top 20. I gave it my all, but I’m 500 points outside of top 20 right now and am completely exhausted. I learned a lot and congratulations to all of my gym mates who made the cut!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 12/03/2025
Fine, I guess we play the “hold top 20” game for the next 5 days. I only had plans tomorrow night anyways.

This got pinned twice in pomacord already so enjoy Bluesky: the current known world record for fastest clear of 3k Master Mode ~ approximately 15.81 seconds (this is supposed to be hard)

Another Legendary Gauntlet in the books (rank not finalized yet). Lowest roster usage % ever, weirdly. I thought I would stop at 120, but some people in the 130s motivated me to join them at their clear count so I zoomed right on past. Stopped next to my guildmate Riku! #screwthebird

Second #DAWeekend is the charm! Got shiny Entei extremely under odds, with four phases in probably 60-65 encounters total. TBD if I'm going to end up hunting Lunala or start looking for a Solgaleo den, since Solgaleo is on my bingo card for the year and Lunala isn't

Whenever you get a new sync pair in Pokemon Masters, you get a story for them. I decided that for all of 2024, I would save the sync pair stories and pop them all on December 31, aka tonight. Safe to say I’ll be here a bit…

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 27/12/2024
Got one of my targets for 2025 early! Roaring Moon the Peckish on my first Dragon sandwich leaves me with 3 Paradox Pokémon to get: Slither Wing, Sandy Shocks, and Iron Moth :)

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 18/12/2024
RTA world record by 13 seconds, but it crumbled late game so I'm going to push for the 37 IGT I suppose

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 17/12/2024
Kieran icon dropped last night on NSO and icymi I would move mountains for this guy so of course it was an instant pickup

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 13/12/2024
oh yeah this was super clean, 34 is just maybe possible with white cloak but already this run was very well executed

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 10/12/2024
Holy. Cow. Split early at the end but IDGAF, THE 39 HAPPENED!!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 09/12/2024
oops!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 07/12/2024
There is absolutely no way that the White Cloak stays Any% legal, this is straight up busted and this is a bad run too!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 05/12/2024
saw a certain shiny hunter on this platform make a shiny bingo card for 2025, figured I'd give it a go for hunts I want to do next year! All of these are on games I own (save Platinum for Manaphy) and I didn't leave any generation of games out. Looking forward to the Kieran team quest especially!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 01/12/2024
Oh hey, first 40! Time to upload yesterday's run and immediately make it obsolete!

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 01/12/2024
hot garbage but wr, starting to think 39 is actually possible with current strats
010
Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 17/11/2024
wr acquired, never doubted myself but I lost 12 in escape so 40 seems very reachable

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 14/11/2024
The jury has spoken, I guess I’m submitting Europa Any% to AGDQ second submission window

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 14/11/2024
kinda cringe, was +9 to WR going into chapter 9 and had a mistake so it's just my 9+10 that needs work honestly
000
Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 03/11/2024
oh, uh this is cool I guess. trash intro, lost 30 getting out of bounds in chapter 9, probably could piece together a 42 and then start hyper optimizing for 41 and beyond!

can’t believe they made MY Pokémon Masters EX woke

Last update for this LG (I promise): I took the safe number instead of the one that was going to keep me up all night. Getting to 200 clears is going to take a bit more planning and better pacing up front, which kinda sucks because one more day and I can do it. Good to keep a goal around though!!
000
Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 22/10/2024
It’s the final day of this Legendary Gauntlet and I’m in a pretty good spot already to guarantee top 100. I’m definitely going to extend this up to 180, but 200 might also be possible and it would be awesome to get that. Only one way to find out though!
010
Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 21/10/2024
PB has officially been tied. I’ll probably end somewhere in the 165-170 range since I still have a head of steam, but for a weekend of a bit of optimization I’ll take the results I have so far!
000
Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 19/10/2024
good morning chat, it is the final weekend of Legendary Gauntlet 4 (17). I’m only 36 clears away from tying my PB, shall we push?

Adept @adeptcs.bsky.social · 04/12/2023
Banger of a first BlueSky post - shaved 28 seconds off my Splatoon 2 NG+ PB last night to raise the unreasonableness of getting top 4 in the category just a little more.
