>>58143670Alright, here are the rest. I could post a ton more of course, but these are the ones with the most interesting stories.
Matou: At the very start of PLA, I found this Cherubi and was like "fuck it, I'm taking you to endgame" so I did. She was my lead against Volo, she was there when I caught Arceus, through thick and then I used her and now our blood bond is thick as brothers.
Gaeneron and Bitru are just shinies I hunted because they're two of my new all-time favorites (the third in that tier is Silvally).
The Chinese Spectrier and random Regieleki were two extremely tough to get my hands on guys, because I needed them to complete the Crown Tundra dex, and I don't have a second copy of SwSh. I had to trade UBs and legendaries and stuff, kept having to launder GTS mon through GTS mon until I landed on some that were actually from SwSh.
Zarude was a gift from my dad, who plays a ton of Go, and I treasure him because I know my dad loves monkeys.
Harrison and Taft are from my BDSP nuzlocke, where I did a US presidents naming scheme. They were instrumental in how I beat Cynthia: Taft sacrificed himself by using a bunch of Mud-Slaps, which lowered Garchomp's accuracy enough that Harrison was able to actually kill it. Taft proved that Gastrodon has the heart of a warrior burning within, and Harrison tanked a +4 Dragon Claw that hit through the accuracy downs. No clue why she didn't use EQ, but thanks to the resistance and Steelix's crazy high Def, he ate it and finished her.
FIREBUD is the very oldest 'mon I still have. White wasn't my first Pokemon game by a longshot, but most of my true oldest mon are stuck in a copy of XD that probably doesn't even work anymore, so at 3/5/11, FIREBUD's been with me longer than anyone else in Home. I'm hoping he'll get to Mega Evolve in ZA.
And lastly, my Furfrou collection. I'm out of comment space, but the short of it is, Furfrou forms are extremely fucking hard to get your hands on, so I'm proud of my complete collection.
