Haven’t had much time to play through a game this week. I used 3 level 3 electrodes mainly to achieve these times. It’s unfortunate Light Ball isn’t legally available in FRLG alone.

Last weekend I finally caught Raikou to complete the living gender-form dex for all native FRLG species!

I caught up on my second save file, obtaining Deoxys-Attack (increasing total to 422), and doing all the Sevii stuff and breeding required to get the other 17 Pokémon as well as the Squirtle line before attempting Suicune, which I captured on the second successful trapping right at the end.

Now, on the third save file, I’ve already beaten the elite four and all I need to do now is unlock the National Pokédex, complete the Ruby and Sapphire sidequests before I can capture the final Pokémon in a Poké Ball: Raikou!

Yesterday I got 10 closer by hatching Shellder, Scyther and Elekid and evolving into Cloyster and Electabuzz. Female Bellossom, two Slowking and two Scizor still need to be obtained by evolving via items found in the Sevii Islands. So just the 6 left for Kanto now (the Squirtle line) and 19 more Johto Pokémon.

Yesterday I got to only 35 Pokémon away from completing the all genders living Pokédex.

The remaining Pokémon to breed/obtain are: Male and Female Shellder, Cloyster, Scyther and Electabuzz for Kanto version exclusives (8); Female Bellossom, Male and Female Wooper, Quagsire, Murkrow, Slowking, Qwilfish, Scizor, Delibird, Skarmory and Elekid (19) for Johto version exclusives; Suicune (1) to obtain in the second save file; and the Squirtle line and Raikou (7) to obtain in the third save file. I could probably finish off Kanto in a week or two, but the rest might take a little longer.

Literally only got back into this last night. I managed breed 3 female Charmander after lots of hatches and added 5 more specimens in total after Evolution. I will try to breed 2 female Kabuto by next time and hopefully also make some progress breeding for the easier mons after I transfer some more. 52 to go!

I haven’t done too much, only adding 7: Male Charmander; Female and Male Psyduck and Golduck; and Male Kabuto and Kabutops to the collection. Breeding does take a while though. I’ve reached Cinnabar Island in FireRed.

I haven’t played too much since last time, but I evolved the two Tyranitar, and played FireRed until I could trade—and did the 15 available trade evolutions. Next is breeding for the Charmander line. I also may start the other FireRed save file to get the Squirtle line. Then it’ll be a case of going through either save files to get the Kabuto line and all the version exclusives and both to get Suicune and Raikou.

After counting more accurately, it seems 342 is the maximum to collect in one LeafGreen save file alone. I’ve prepared all the trade evolutions except the 2 more King’s Rock I need from another save file. I just have to evolve male and female Larvitar into Tyranitar and then it’s time to start FireRed!

I went over 100 hours played this week. Hatching the 1:7 female Pokémon took ages, particularly for the last Eevee in particular, which probably took some 30+ egg hatches. Evolving for Dragonair and Dragonite is my next task and then onto filling in the LeafGreen Johto gaps.
