Fun fact: Use the Dowsing Machine near the teleporter that goes to the Uxie/Mesprit/Azelf hallway + room in the Galactic HQ. You can get a Razor Claw (used to evolve Sneasel) there, earlier than Route 224/Victory Road!
I got Absol on top of Mt. Coronet but it can appear on any of the snowy areas still labeled Mt. Coronet.
Giratina. Yeah, I RNGed him. Still really cool though.
I chucked a Master Ball at Mesprit. It takes too long to train a "Roamer hunter" right now. I'll have to prepare a special catcher for the post-game Roamers anyway, at least it'll be way easier to train then.
Uxie and Azelf were caught via regular Ultra Balls, nothing hard.
Took a bit to get a female Electabuzz, which was necessary to get Elekid! In Sunyshore we finally get the second Thunderstone so I'm now caught up Dex-wise.
So I'm not doing any more updates until I actually complete the challenge (I'll probably do one after I get the Super Rod on the post-game island, then finish up mainland Sinnoh though, as that's quite a lot already)---doing one before the E4 makes no sense, from here until the E4 I only get two more entries: Mantyke, and Mantine.
