25,070 encounters in, the literal last hour of Safari Week, Trapinch finally shines. 255 catch rate! Following four Zone failures! Surely I was finally going to take something home right? …fled after one ball. #safariweek #safariweek2026

Day 5 #safariweek2026 4507 encounters into phase 2. The Desert hit 30 days maturity so I can switch from Vibrava to Trapinch. Tomorrow we’re doing a meetup and going feral on encounters. But today? Gonna try to hit odds.

First shiny of Safari Week! …and it fled after two balls. Didn’t even shake once. So far 0 for 3 on Safari Zone shinies this year.

Spent Day 1 and most of Day 2 of Safari Week camping, managed to get 1000 Great Marsh Encounters in while waiting out storms in the tent and driving home. Now I’m home with a triple hunt setup going, ending Day 2 at 2390. Ready to go sicko mode on Day 3.

Over 8 years ago I made my first tweet announcing I was on my way to Podcon. Now I’m making the same (whatever you call it here) announcing I’m on my way to @tafcon.bsky.social See y’all soon! Come say hi, tell me about your favorite show.

THREE DAYS. Three days of Radar Chaining at Stark Mountain (my first time using Pokeradar) to get the next member of my Shiny Ground team. I’ve had easier full odds hunts. Shortstack is now in Johto getting trained up and hunting shiny leaves. Happy #ranchweek

I’m going to Hell!

Saw Cabinet of Dr Caligari for the first time last night (live scored by The Invincible Czars) and HOW is “We queens are not free to answer the call of our hearts” not plastered on shirts and walls and bodies everywhere? What an icon.

It’s here! Got a frame for and everything, I love how it looks in person.

Stayed up all night in Joshua Tree capturing the Milky Way and meteor shower. Which was all Mania needed to decide I didn’t need sleep anymore. Using the extra hours to get Instagram online (of all things)
