I was waiting for this before doing a run through Shining Pearl (played Brilliant Diamond at launch, although I didn't grab the extra Legends yet as all my 'catchers' were in Home).

I definitely need to re-organise my Home boxes too as I know I'm using the boxes right after Gen 8 for shinies, and need to make room for Gen 9.

My Home boxes are a mess :lol:

They’re in order regional dex order for LGPE, SWSH and Legends Arceus (when I move it across) but the rest are a mess as I only started actively going for a living dex when LGPE came out, before that I just wasn’t bothered.

Edit, my Home is still under maintenance :(

All transferred into Home :toot: The two trio of starters redeemed, now just need to trade the ones I’m using for quick-ish runs of BDSP to a friend as they’ve got hold items. I’ll do that when I get home from work this evening

2 left for a living dex now, really hope they release an event for Volcanion and Marshadow again in the near future :(

I’m really tempted to try and solo Legends Arceus with Decidueye for a bit of a different run, with how brutal wild Pokémon can be a solo run might be fairly challenging really.

Transferred in all my legendaries and Hisuan exclusives into Home. Used my spare Thundurus to get a kubfu off GTS for my living dex.

Traded across the Pokémon for BDSP and started those again until I could trade them back in, just need to start Legends again now and I’ll be set until Scarlet and Violet come out later this year.

I used my shiny creation trio to get their shiny versions of their new forms in legends

Do the new forms stay when you put them back into Home? The various forms are one thing I’ve not been going for, I’d be quite happy just with a standard living dex really.

Wonder if you can just view the alternate forms then.

Just started Legends Arceus again to get the opening out of the way, got lucky with my Rowlet’s nature as it’s an attack up one first time. Plenty of other games to be playing but at least I’ve got all 3 games started again so can pick them up as and when.

Cracking on with my runs of BDSP before Legends and I’d forgotten how awful it is using traded Pokémon, had to go off plan slightly and catch a Starly to help out in the early part of the game, my Gible was getting battered by gym 2 purely as it wouldn’t listen :lol: I’m aiming to try and play them side by side so I can focus on Legends again afterwards.

Currently just done gym 2 on BD and on the cycling road.
Just caught a Starly on SP and will make a little progress on this tonight.

Spent a couple of hours while watching Final Score yesterday trying to sort my Home boxes in National Dex order. Why in god's name doesn't it let you do this automatically?

It’s ridiculous isn’t it? Home literally has all of the data right there to sort them but you can only choose how to view them rather than actually sort your boxes, it’s the same for all of the games barring LGPE. It’s one of those things I’m always hoping they implement but they’re yet to show any signs of doing so.

Yeah I've got to view pokemon as list, sort the list by National Dex, then manually move pokemon into the boxes. It's madness.

I can only do it on autopilot while watching something else.

Guess we’re slowly approaching the time of year where we might get a small update on Pokémon Scarlet and Violet? That’s assuming Nintendo are going to have a general direct around what would have been E3 time.

Got the second gym badge in BD and SP now, the Starly line is amazing in the gen 4 games :datass:
