4. I plan on doing Flabébé next, but after I finish my entire list of hunts, I will be doing a HUGE Eevee hunt to try and get as many shinies as I can using Masuda Method!

5. Shiny Omanyte at 280 eggs using MM

6. My shiny Lapras hunt, which took 1,810 eggs using MM

7. Masuda Method!

8. I prefer the charm, but I only have the charm in Let’s Go. I’m never truly using full odds though because I use other methods. New odds

9. Ursaring >.<

10. JubileeBlais, a Youtuber/Twitch streamer, inspired me to start hunting

11. My very first shiny was a Crustle that I accidentally got in Ultra Moon in an Ultra Wormhole

12. Regice; Quagsire

13. Since the end of October of 2018

14. A few in Let’s Go Eevee, on purpose mostly (except 1). Doduo, Pidgeotto, Chansey, Rattata, and a couple others that I can’t think of. And then an Eevee that ran from me…

15. There’s a few that I’ve never actually buckled down to try, such as the PokéRadar. Plan on trying the DexNav soon.

16. Just whichever Pokémon I like best or whichever shinies I think look good!

17. The satisfaction of getting the shiny I want after a dedicated hunt!

Regained access, time for an update!

1. What is your favorite shiny pokemon of all time? I want to say Lapras because I'm biased, but I love Goomy's shiny!

2. What is your favorite shiny that you own? My first masuda shiny (no charm), my shiny Lapras named Brillo

3. What was your most memorable shiny catch/hunt? I actually got a double shiny Tropius spawn in Scarlet! They spawned almost right next to each other!

4. What is a hunt you’d like to do? I'm actually trying for Fidough/Dauschbun on and off right now!

5. What is the shortest hunt you’ve done? I hatched a shiny Koffing for my husband at 17 eggs using masuda (no charm) immediately after my longest hunt

6. What is the longest hunt you’ve done? My shiny Chikorita, Tegayo, using masuda (no charm) at 1,953 eggs

7. What is your favorite method to hunt? In other games, it was masuda, but in Scarlet, breeding is a pain :( in Scarlet probably isolated encounter method

8. Do you prefer to hunt at full odds or with the charm? Original 1/8192 odds or newer 1/4096 odds? I don't have a preference on charm, but I do like the newer odds

9. What is your least favorite shiny pokemon of all time? Gengar, Garchomp, yknow the ones

10. Why did you start hunting? A youtuber/streamer I used to watch got me contemplating and so I just did it

11. What was your first shiny? My ultra wormhole Crustle if I'm not mistaken

12. Are there any pokemon you think have good designs but bad shinies? How about pokemon with designs you dislike but with shinies you think are good? Regice is still a solid answer for the first part; Bruxish is a really unique shiny of a mon I'm not super fond of

13. How long have you been hunting? Almost 4 years now I think

14. Have you failed a shiny before? What pokemon was it? Too many to count lol a few in Let's Go for sure

15. Are there hunting methods you’ve never tried? I think I have tried most. I did end up trying dexnav, but I wasn't very good at it

16. How do you choose which shinies to hunt? Just whatever Pokémon I like or whatever shinies I think are good

17. What’s your favorite part of shiny hunting? The thrill of seeing them! Especially in the overworld now!

I'm... dreaming.... of a white.... Eevee

With every new brown one I meet

May your shi...ny odds be.... increeeeeeased

And may all... your.... Jolteons.... be green 🎶

i just had the weirdest moment, i was feeling my front teeth with my tongue because they’re the tiniest bit crooked, and then i had the thought “i’ll check if they’re also crooked in my other mouth” and then i realized to my shock and confusion that i have only one mouth, leading me to believe that in a past life i was a terrible monster with two mouths

A few months ago, I thought to myself “Mmm I’m so tired… how much longer in this one again?” and I knew instinctively what I meant by ‘this one’ was this body and this life. I then spend a few wide-eyed moments having an identity/existential crisis like how many times have I been on this earth to have such an instinctive response to being bone-weary to my soul? No one can really answer, especially not me.

In July 2017, one night I woke up around 2 a.m and blurted out in a quasi professorial voice “the Equinox Bird has infinite beaks, all in the wrong direction, and infinite eyes” and I don’t know what the fuck I was dreaming about but it still haunts me. It seemed like a very important information for a few seconds.

i really appreciate the last commenter giving us an exact date and time like that information needs to be preserved

One time I passed out on the couch after going a few days without sleep, and when I woke up mom said I had been speaking in German in my sleep, and it sounded like I was ordering people to build something

When I was like 5 my mom took me to the grave of her friend that died of cancer and I asked what happened and my mom explained that she died and i fucking said “I died once” and my mom asked me to explain and I went into pretty detailed explanation about how I died in a war because “I got stabbed by a gun with a knife at the end” (my exact words) and I met god and she (she’s a woman obvs) asked if I wanted to stay or go back to earth and I said I wanted to go back so I chose my mom cause she was struggling to have a baby (she had me through IVF) and lemme tell you that changed her like nothing will make you second guess your religious beliefs like a five year old explaining heaven and god to you

this post is a fucking ride and it reminded me of something i forgot

one time i was playing on my wii (like 5-ish years ago) and i thought to myself “i haven’t checked on rowan in a week, has he died from the plague? :(“ and i didn’t think anything of it for a bit until later when i had a “what the fuck” moment

I love this kind of shit because it happens to me all the goddamn time. Like:

-The other night I rolled over in the middle of the night to shake my partner awake, proceeded to tell him how I was glad that ‘this time round we would truly have the freedom to love each other properly’ and how his hands belonged to his last self, but his eyes had never changed in all the lives I’d known him. And he just laid there in the dark like wtf because I was asleep. Like I’d woken him to tell him that all in my sleep and then left him to have a crisis.

- Watching the history channel with my Pop on the couch, tender age of 7, and they’re talking about crucifixion. And my pop, ever the funny man, is like “that looks like it aughta hurt”. And I just turn to look at him and without hesitation reply “only at first”. And he’s like “what do you mean” and tiny me just shrugged and said “well there’s a place beyond the hurt where everything just stops” and he turned the telly off and left the room.

- night before Christmas 2012, dreamt I’d been stabbed in the lungs by an angel with the face of a falcon. He looked at me and told me he had to do it, so that ‘my next breath would come as a rebirth’. When he started to glow so brightly that it burned my eyes, I woke up to all the lights in my house on and a dark bruise beneath my rib cage. Will admit, that one freaked me out.

- walked past a graveyard with a friend back in middle school on the way to her house, and mid conversation I stopped talking and stood stock still, looked over at the walls,and quietly said “I have a friend in there”. Then picked up the conversation and continued strolling like nothing had happened. To be fair, I didn’t realise what I’d said. She still tells me I’m the reason she can’t walk past that graveyard anymore.

- a couple of years ago when I was in Wales I walked past an old stone house just outside of Aberystwyth, and just started to weep. I had the overwhelming thought that I needed to be in there to get dinner ready for the children, but in a different life so long ago and so impossible to reach, that thefeeling of loss was instant and overwhelming.

- was about to use a pedestrian crossing, when my whole body just sort of went hey don’t do that, and so I stopped and put my arm out to stop the woman who was crossing behind me, and 2 seconds later a car came skidding around the corner and crashed into the tree on the other side of the crossing, and I just whispered “ha, not this time” and didn’t really think about it until later when I realised I’d nearly died again. (Btw i waited for th ambulance to show up and the dude driving the car was fine, just hit his head and was drunk af at 10:30am on a Thursday).

- another dream I had just this week, I was sitting in an otherwise empty cinema with a tall, thin man. I can’t really recall what he looked like, except he was well dressed, impossibly pale, and he kind of blurred when you looked directly at him, so I mainly watched him out the corner of my eye and looked ahead at the blank movie screen. He was holding my hand, and he asked me if i enjoyed my life. I said yes and explained why. He then said, almost verbatim, “And how does this one weigh against the last? Can it tip the scales, or is it, at last, to be found lacking?” And I replied, almost verbatim “I weigh my lives against my joy, and each life I find there is more joy to be discovered.” He replied with a laugh, lifted my hand to a kiss and said “till next time then” and disappeared. I woke up in the dark with both my cats sitting on me, alert, and staring out my bedroom door.

So many more, but these are the first that come to mind.

When I was little, my mother, my sister and I would dream in unison so often that one time when my mother was having a rather dull dream about golf my tiny 3 year old self shook her awake and told her to stop because it was boring. She dreaded having nightmares because both of us would wake up shrieking. 

My sister and I have also been known to argue in our sleep. Witnesses assure us that whatever made the shouting start, we both knew what it was and were mad about it. We don’t need to be in the same room for this.

We also stayed in a haunted house for a while. An old lady had fallen in the chilly hallway just outside the warm kitchen, broken her hip, and couldn’t reach high enough to open the door, so she died of hypothermia a foot away from a telephone and warmth. Without fail, every person who stood in that spot and tried to open that door - the single most used door in the house, being between the kitchen and the bathroom and front door - felt cold and found themselves scrabbling frantically at the door handle, which was always strangely hard to open from that side. You got used to it to an extent, but it always hit strangers hard. 

Please reblog, this is so important.

I needed this

Is this foreal?

Yes it’s a real service. I do volunteer work for a rape crisis support service in my city and texting is one of the features we provide as well. But just to boost its credibility, I tried it myself:

reblog to save lives!

You can also text “Steve” to 741741 if you’re a young person of color. The website for more info is stevefund.org

My understanding is that it’s more multicultural and some folks feel more comfy with that in mind!
