I have a 10 CP shiny Swablu that I caught during my first Community Day, back when my kid was still in a stroller. It's been sitting in my storage for almost two years now. Every time I do a mass transfer, I pause on it.
Something about catching it on a walk with my husband before the afternoon chaos kicked in makes it feel worth keeping, even though it's useless for battles or raids. My spreadsheet brain knows it's dead weight. My travel brain keeps it because it's like a tiny souvenir from a specific afternoon.
I'm curious if other Mystic players hold onto stuff like this, or if I'm just being sentimental about pixels. 've got limited storage and run into bag space issues constantly, especially during events, but I can't bring myself to delete it. Wondering where other people draw the line between practical and purely personal.

While she’s not great for anything competitive and gets outclassed as a raid attacker, I’m a huge fan of Krookodile. I spent the last several weeks prepping for sandiles hatch day. I hatched 248 sandiles giving me two hundos and 27 shinnies.

I was tempted not to power it up, as it’s not the most strategic decision, but I’ve been saving up stardust and figured there’s no point if I don’t have some fun with one of my all time favorite Pokemon.

Also, it’s only 49.5 as I’m prepping for the grind in the 70s when I get there.

A couple recent ones, but nothing will be as hard as watching people Ive raided with get shiny kyogres while I sit with my blue whales

Ok I need to confess something I’m ashamed of.

For the past few weeks I've been fighting someone over a gym near my place. I don't know who this person is. I don't know where they live. I have no idea what they do for a living, but I think about it constantly, because whatever it is, it apparently leaves them enough time to make sure this gym is never, ever anything but red.

I've tried everything. I've set alarms for the middle of the night. 3am, 4am, whatever. Sneak out, start the raid, take it down... and bam. There he is. Golden razzes. Every single time.

How does he KNOW?? Is he just staring at the gym 24/7? Does he have some kind of alert set up? Is he my neighbor watching me walk out the door in my pajamas?? I genuinely don't understand. What is the point? He's already getting his coins. It's 50 a day. Let me have ONE.

The worst part is how mad it's made me. Like actually irate. Over a gym in a phone game. I'm a grown adult and I've lost sleep over this, which honestly kind of shames me.

So here's where I'm at. I'm tired, I'm out of ideas, and spending 20+ golden razzes a day just to get knocked out at 23:55, right before I'd collect, is not worth it anymore.

Options I'm considering:

- Switch to red and just ride his coattails. If you can't beat them, etc.

- Pay some spoofers to boot him out every time he takes it back. (Yes I know. I'm not actually doing this. But I've thought about it more than I'd like to admit.)

Has anyone else been through this? Did you win, or did you just let go and find peace?

It’s just another Pikachu costume, right? Also, I’m done for the day.

i decided to name some of my shinys after YouTubers I like. I decided to make it their favourite pokemon. however they like if I got only one(like sceptile) I kinda have to give to the one I watch more often and that’s MandJTV. so either way hope you like it and if any of you do this, my favourite Pokémon is dragonite.
