Gotta Catch 'Em All! - Pokémon Thread

Yeah, while I have a lot of fond memories, I'm not sure I'd exactly recommend it to anyone. I'm at 25-ish hours and sooooo much of that is just Mt Battle loops.
A problem with the old games is that the enemies levels just stop after a point, and you just get stuck trying to get your Lv 40 Mons to Lv 50 fighting nothing but Lv 20 Wild Pokemon. And no short cuts like Blissey or EXP candies.
Colosseum's Mt Battle at least offers infinite Trainer fights at just about any level threshold you'd need, although the game has lengthy attack animations that drag on. And you got to grind to purify the Shadow Pokemon, then grind again to actually level them up since they don't exactly gain experience until then. And just catching them in the first place can take ages, especially the Legendary Beasts.
... which is all a big shame since Colosseum is entirely Double Battles, which are criminally underused in the main games. One playthrough I actually got a lot of use out of Plusle of all Pokemon, having him support Suicune with Rain Dance and Thunder.
Anyways, I fought the SECRET boss in the game, who's theme is... distinct:
So, I guess here are so e more shinies since I don't know what else to do with this thread. But these are shinies I was actually going for. So there's that.
Rotom was probably the most rewarding, not just because it's an Alpha (though that is awesome). But it also is a rare spawn that only spawns in one place outside of mass outbreaks. I also got this on a second wave of an outbrea, so I very nearly passed it up when there wasn't an immediate shiny sound when I found the outbreak.

Mr. President, what are you doing here?
Thanks to those of you that helped me get my first legendary today in Pokemon GO! Woot!
BEHOLD! THE ULTIMATE SHINY!
Please contain your jealousy.
A mood.
...I have a coworker who should never see that, because he's shown me too many memes that are essentially the same thing.
A dataminer claims the delay to bring BDSP compatibility to Home is because of it being coded with Unity despite both Home and BDSP being made b the same company.
Seems them farming out both Home and BDSP to ILCA has done more harm then good, Gamefreak made Pokemon Bank and all the games compatible with it.

Not having played the originals I actually enjoyed Shining Pearl. That said, where I would normally do stuff like shiny hunting, breeding or just screwing around after finishing other Pokémon games, I did drop SP rather quickly.
i mean they're still better than the originals. and even DP aren't awful, they're just subpar compared to everything else in the mainline series.
Colosseum is pretty ******* awful and tedious and actively anti-fun, though. No idea how so many entitled fanbrats think it's better than XY, ORAS, SM or even SwSh, lolol
