Well, I've started on Legends Arceus and gotten far enough that I can accept Mystery Gifts. I've also gotten to the second badge with Brilliant Diamond, and am working my way towards the third.
Sadly, I need to take a break on both for the time being. Got more pressing matters to deal with in real life, and those take priority.

All this Pokemon Going gave me an itch to play one of the older games, and since the easiest for me to jump back over to was Sword I've replayed that.
I was not expecting the first Raid den I entered to be a shiny Pangoro.
I think that's only my second full odds shiny. ( I'm no longer considering PLA to be full odds, there head to be something being done differently considering I ended up with over 100 shinies)
It actually completely caught me off guard since I hadn't played SWSH in like a year or more, and couldn't remember if those were normal sparkles for raids or not. Couldn't tell it was shiny easily because of the red glow in dynamaxed Pokemon.

That reminds me, I should at least finish collecting the new Hisuan mons for my live dex.
Not yet, but I believe they've said it's coming eventually. And one of the trailers for the next gen games had a Hisuan Zoroark in it. So I should get around to it just to be ready.
Oh, I'll bet they figure out something there. Even if they have to create some intermediary program that people have to download separately. Pokemon Hotel, or something.
Pokemon Home will get a 2.0 update to make it compatible with BDSP and Legends.

...Eventually. Weird that they announced this is coming without giving us a release date. But, we get some details. And you get some free starters from transferring Pokemon from all the games to Home.
New Pokémon HOME Update to Add Recent Pokémon Game Compatibility
Plus, connect to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, and Pokémon Shining Pearl to receive special Pokémon as Mystery Gifts.

Serebii.net is reporting that Home is undergoing maintenance tomorrow, and that the update for compatibility with BDSP and Legends will likely occur then.
So yeah, it's less 'soon' and more 'almost now'.

Another short series. Although, I think this one will have a continuing story running through all the episodes.
Quite disappointing to find variants such as Growlthie, Zorua and Liligant can't be transferred to Legends Arceus, we got Alolan Vulpix and Sneasel but I guess they didn't program the rest. BDSP just stops with gen IV Pokemon and has no variants whatsoever, ILCA might update the game but I'm not counting on it and think Gamefreak are well into Scarlet and Violet to return to Legends Arceus.

I've caught two shiny alolan Geodude's today with that community event, I had to do it all at home because the local network has been down all day, these Pokemon will only work in Let's Go though since neither BDSP or Legends Arceus has the variants.
