ricky

For today's phasing show and tell I have my Charizard SIR from the Pokemon 151 set. I actually pulled this before the English version came out back in 2023 so I took pics of it to share with my LCS and ended up having a nice talk with a total stranger about what I thought of the set

If I had a nickel every time I phased on a desert themed gen 5 Pokemon while shiny hunting Baltoy I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice 😂 #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

Thank you! 😃

Thanks! And yes, Maractus is criminally underrated

For today's phasing show and tell I have my Mewtwo GX from 2017's Shining Legends. I pulled it back in the day from an ETB I only bought because my mom asked me to come with her to Walmart to carry bags of topsoil. I still think about how easily I could've walked right past it sometimes lol

For some reason I thought it'd be fun to shiny hunt Baltoy in SWSH's Wild Area. Anyways, I phased on a Maractus after 75 total encounters. I still needed one for my SLD and it's an awesome shiny so I can't complain too much 😅 #pokemon #shinypokemon #shunyhunting

They weren't kidding when they said life sized! 😂 I'm thinking about getting a dog bed for him and putting him on the other side of that room so he's not blocking the plushies on the bottom shelf. I'm definitely going to have to find a better spot for him

My Umbreon just showed up!!

Congrats! 😃

This guy was just hanging out at my house when I got up this morning 😂 #pokemon #shinypokemon #pokemongo

I got my shiny female Reclicanth! This phase took 301 total eggs with 24 females hatched. I just need 5 more Pokemon to finish the gen 3 section of my SLD now! #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

Also, and sorry for yapping so much, but I found a shiny Chansey while level grinding Champer for the Pokemon League joke. I wasn't keeping track of encounters but I know she showed up in less than 20 SOS encunters. I named her Janice

For today's phasing show and tell I have my Yveltal EX promo. It came with the Premium Trainer XY Collection Box that came out in 2017 and it seemed fitting to share it today what with the Kalos Tour going on. I don't have a Yveltal plush to pose it with so here it is with my Politoed plush

Phase 3 of my shiny female Relicanth hunt came in at a fast 46 eggs (3 females hatched). This is Champer, I made him solo the Pokemon League. I gotta say, I'm unimpressed. A real champ wouldn't have missed Rock Slide so many times lol #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

Shiny Entei in 2093 SRs! I actually found it while work shopping a set up to hunt the FRLG starters and ultra space legenaries at the same time. I haven't found one I like yet but I'm planning on playing around with it a little more later #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

That's a good haul, congrats!

Thanks! I'm definitely having better luck than I did with the Unova tourblast year. Hopefully you're able to find some shinies tomorrow 😃

I got a pretty okay haul for day 1 of the Kalos Tour. It's supposed to get cold again tomorrow so I may not end up playing much on day 2 but today was fun at least #pokemon #shinypokemon #pokemongo

They had it at a really reasonable price and they even offered me a discount too so I took that as a sign to get it lol

Also I went to my LCS for a Pokemon Day 2026 box a little earlier and found a Pokemon Center of Sapporo Pikachu promo from 2016. Absolutely wild find. I almost never find any foreign cards there. I guess it's fitting to find all these Pikachu today 😂. Hope everyone's Pokemon Day is going well

My Pikachu from the Unova timed research was shiny! #pokemon #shinypokemon #pokemongo

For today's phasing show and tell I have some plushies that I picked up yesterday. The Growlithe and Slowpoke Sqhishmallows are from the Pokemon Center and the Rowlet is from Walmart. I'm starting to run out of room in the little nook I've been keeping my Squishmallows in lol

Happy Pokemon Day everyone! I brought a fish. His name is Chumper and he is phase 2 in my shiny female Relicanth hunt (499 eggs total, 60 females hatched this phase). He was born, immediately picked a fight with a Lillipup and then lost. Unhinged behavior. #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

That Aurorus is an awesome find too!

That's still a nice find! I got a background Ho-Oh then stopped for the day lol

Shiny Cobalion after 2186 SRs! I even managed to catch it in one of the leftover Heavy Balls from the Heatran hunt I did a while back. Cobalion gets False Swipe and Thunder Wave so I think I might use it as a catch Pokemon at some point #pokemon #shinypokemon #shinyhunting

I like how the Voltorb line is the ball lol. The Litwik like illuminating the 30 was also a great touch

I got a shiny Moltres from a raid invite! #pokemon #shinypokemom #pokemongo

The Giratina I got from the Feburary pass ended up being shiny! #pokemon #shinypokemon #pokemongo
