Caught was a Wooloo (evolved my first caught as it had better stats/ability), encountered was a Stufful in the Wild Area RE. Fucker killed itself with double edge after I'd false swiped it. ._.
>Next?
Dunno, honestly. Maybe RE on R5 to reclaim a Stufful.
>Longest?
10 years, on and off looking for a shiny Ponyta. Finally found one in Let's GO first couple of months last year. Then, like busses, I got two from a friend safari on X in the summer and 5 the night before Sword/Shield's release, as I decided to hunt it once more before launch and kept going for most of the night.

What's the best method to go for the shiny fossils in SwSh? Farm the fossil parts at the digging duo and then just mash the A button at Cara Liss, check my boxes after a while and see if I got one? Or is there a better way?

tldr: the same thing as you're doing but check it's dex entry instead of the box.

whoops forgot to finish the first thought, the digging duo who gives you the rarer fossils is the one on the left.

Shiny Imp so I have the whole set, and also shiny HA Shuckle!

RE Imp I wasn't hunting for, but now that I have him as a Morgrem and a Grimmsnarl, I might as well have another Imp.
>what are you thinking of hunting after this?
HA Snom.
>longest hunt?
Took about 5 months of on-off hunting to get a shiny female Tropius in ORAS via DexNav. Granted I kept breaking my chain and didn't have shiny charm. Killed about 900+ altogether. Got a male shiny and continued, and later that same day got my female. Took forever, but I managed to re-encounter my first shiny on the same route I found her in Ruby back when I was a kid. I lost my copy of Ruby at some point and was devastated, so this was I guess a long-term reclamation. I still need to get a good Contest moveset on her to get all the ribbons I remember getting back on Ruby.

Shiny Galarian Weezing ain't anything special, which is why I laughed it off basically. Obviously I'd still liked to have had it either way though, but oh well.
