Game grid thing. Limited myself to one pick per series, otherwise this would be nothing but DK and Metroid.
That 9 games thing. Games included: Donkey Kong Country 3, Metroid Fusion, Warioware, Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, Pokémon White, Hades, Banjo-Kazooie, Shin Megami Tensei IV, Wario Land II

This method rules. Bring back the shiny gene. Passing the gene down across several generations reminded me a little of flower breeding in Animal Crossing. So much more satisfying than just getting a foreign Ditto.

Took a crack at Gen 2 shiny breeding, just to say I did. If you don't mind the constant stress of assuming you did something wrong and you're totally wasting your time, it's a neat little hunt. I just wish I had more Gen 1-2 shinies I still need to catch. I think it's just Kanto Rattata now.

Knocking out some Ultra Beasts while the Bank is still up. First one down. Named it after the only red and green thing I could think of. #Pokémon #shinyhunt

DK Challenge Komplete! Note how I finished the retro challenges the night the event dropped and held off on the Bananza ones until the last minute. Honestly, the hardest part was re-learning the controls after not playing for a year, but that slug boss can go fuck himself. #DKChallenge

Today I learned that Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon doesn't have chain fishing to increase shiny odds. Which means the two shinies I caught while I was looking for the 5% spawn Clamperl were totally unboosted. #Pokémon #shinyhunt

Didn't keep track of how many resets it took, but I can finally knock Groudon off my shiny list. I named him after the lando norris flavor of Monster because he matches the can and for the "land/ground" pun. #shinyhunt #pokemon

Nintendo was wrong to never use these puppets for the comms/cutscenes in an actual game.

"Worst Possible Spider-Man Plotline" really doesn't narrow it down. We talking One More Day? Any of the Clone ones? The Other? That Kevin Smith Black Cat story? The one where he's old and his radioactive penis killed MJ? Trouble?

100% scans, items & crystals in #MetroidPrime4. I absolutely loved this game. For it to even be out in a playable state after all these years feels like a miracle, but to be good-to-great on top of that is insane. I already like it more than Prime 3 and it's a very worthy addition to the series.

It's cool when amiibo do something unique that you can't unlock regularly.

Shiny hunting the elemental monkeys in Legends Z-A is going just great, why do you ask?

And look who showed up just yesterday! I actually counted my resets this time (1,730 with shiny charm). That was the last wormhole shiny hunt I had planned, time to play around with Z-A's various methods.

There's one with the Batadons in the desert that scared the crap out of me when I was hunting down P-Switches at 2 am. Did not know that could happen.

Overall a good week for shiny hunting, also knocked Mewtwo and Trubbish off my Bingo card thanks to US wormholes and SOS chains.

Finally got my shiny 3-segment Dudunsparce. I did not keep track of how long this took, but I'm sure I was at least 2x over odds. Since the Switch 2 update I was hitting 4-10 per sandwich That leaves Family of 3 Maushold as the final obtainable gen 9 shiny. I am not looking forward to that hunt.

Stumbled upon a shiny Gimmighoul raid on Poke Portal just now. It seems like that's the way to go, just keep refreshing and trying every 5-star you come across. Also, hot take: Great shiny. I loooove a subtle shiny.

As far as the MCU lineup goes, it's about as good as you could ask for working with already established characters. Personally, I'd swap Bucky with Zemo, would bring back Justin Hanmer as a makeshift Fixer/Mach V and find a way to introduce Songbird.

I'm really excited for Thunderbolts, though. So whoever is saying "who asked for this?" Me. I did. When Ghost showed up in Ant-Man 2 I said "they didn't get to do much here, but they were great in the comics. I hope we get a Tbolts movie."

I've had a slow-burn shiny hunt going on my Ultra Sun for a couple weeks now that just paid off with this sweet Ho-Oh. I named them Sprite Remix, because they seemed tropical and citrusy.
