Just about to get rapidash and end my first section! This run is a little bit different than your normal POC. I am obtaining every pokemon and trade as soon as possible hence why all 3 starters are present. This will include getting mukrow/misdreavus in the next section and steelix via bronzor metal coat etc. I also intend to collect all items (including ones held by wild pokemon e.g metronome and berries) and finish all quests once available ( will have a trainer star in the next section!). All shinies were done via RNG manipulation! Really enjoying this run!

Finally finished my Soul Silver POC after 7 years. The 621 hours is a little under how long it actually took because of soft resetting for a shiny Lugia in the middle. I finally got it last December and sped through the rest of the game. The Ho-Oh and Breloom are RNG Maniped but the rest are full odds that I resetted for or encountered while grinding. I plan on finishing out this save and getting all of the badge stars now that the challenge is done!

Didn’t make a post for my pre-badge 3 stuff so I’ll include it here! I think both of these sections are pretty easy with exp from wild Roselia and Volbeat/Illumise. However, speed can be an issue on a lot of Pokémon and most of the things you’re fighting can either lower your accuracy, status you, or heal. Once you’re one-shotting mons it’s a breeze. Kinda bad candy luck in section 3 but much better in section 4. If anyone is about to do this section would definitely recommend saving dig for Anorith because its moves are terrible. See you guys again for section 5! Hopefully I don’t procrastinate for 6 more months! :)

Hey Everyone,

This is my first "official" PoC I've ever done so decided why not complete 2 challenges at once! It's taken many undocumented hours to get to this point so far but slowly creeping towards that half-way point. Has been a lot of but can't wait to finally complete this run.

For anyone curious shiny Nosepass has by far the longest hunt. Ultimate goal is to complete a shiny living dex in Pokemon home catching Pokemon from the earliest game possible and transferring them up.

Thanks for reading the post <3

EDIT: Sorry I edited the body elsewhere but forgot to update here before posting. This challenge has been accomplished through a combination of both RNG and random encounters. Again I'm sorry I didn't mean to misconstrue the information posted.

It took me 170 exact number Hidden Grotto Spawns and nearly a month but i got him

So part 2 wasn't too bad, I nearly forgot the Mawile but luckily double checked before I moved on.

Part 3 doesn’t have any Pokemon to add, so I just tagged it on to the end.
