Basically bumping this to have a bit of a moan about Pokémon, Home and GTS in particular! So I’ve gone to try and fill some of the gaps in my mythical Pokémon I’m missing, just to find out you’re not actually allowed to trade mythical Pokémon through Home? So they’ve not done an event like they did for the 20th (which I stupidly didn’t take advantage of for the most part, just making sure I got a Manaphy rather than the whole lot, hindsight is a wonderful thing as always) to distribute mythical/hard to get legendary Pokémon and there’s no way to trade for them, so how on earth is a new player meant to go about completing a living dex these days? Slightly annoying to be honest! Only reason I’m still playing Go is to try and evolve Meltan (which I’ve now seen you can reset the mystery box by sending to Home rather than just to LGPE) so hopefully that won’t take loads longer (only on about 100 candy for it as it refuses to count my steps consistently
), I have little interest in getting all the mythical Pokémon from Go to be honest and don’t feel this is the only way a new player can get them.
Although I am still loving Sword/Shield, to the point where I’ve bought the DLC for Sword just so I can enjoy the both parts of the DLC again (Crown Tundra is still loads better than Isle of Armor though) on my solo run of Sword, which I couldn’t beat just with Grookey so evolved it into Rillaboom and it was a breeze with a few stat boosts against Leon. At least playing through the DLC again will give me the other version of Kubfu’s evolution anyway.
