Hey if you're just watching this video after March, the requirements for Magearna now don't require having a full living dex in your Pokemon HOME. You just need to have a completed Pokedex and it will unlock! You don't need all the alternate forms, but just make sure to check if all your Pokemon are being registered in your HOME Pokedex :)

With BDSP, I finally feel like this is achievable again. Getting the Gen 5-6 Pokémon I'm missing will be difficult still, but I should easily complete Gen 1-4 after Home is working in BDSP. And I have 7-8 finished already. Update to this: My local library carries Pokémon Y, Omega Ruby, and White 2. Between all of those, I was able to grind through and get everything I was missing filled in. Now I'm just waiting on HOME support for BDSP and PLA to make it official. In the meantime, I'm nearly through my 2nd PLA run to get both Formes of Enamorus.

Solid video man. Last year I started my live dex collection when HOME opened up. I made the choice to modify and make a personal ruleset: - I have to catch a Pokémon from the earliest gen that it is available to me, if for some reason I absolutely can’t catch, breeding is okay. - every Pokémon has to have my OT or be an event Pokémon as a place marker. I borrowed Sapphire, Black, White2, and Y from a friend, owned moon and platinum, downloaded red and silver digitally, and picked up a copy of ultra sun. With a 3DS and DS, I’ve been having lots fun hunting chronologically and sending everything from the transporter to bank and soon bank to home. It’s hard to say if the bank will stick around much longer and so the idea of collecting old pokes from their oldest generations and moving them to the home gives me sense of closure to the hand helds dying off.

Note: If anyone trying the tweaking in do to get shaymin, Darkrai or arceus, you should catch them in Pokemon diamond, not pearl version. Legit Darkrai and Arceus is only transferable to pokebank if caught in diamond version. For Darkrai, you need to upgrade it to level 50 in diamond and forget pursuit. For arceus, upgrade it to level 100 in diamond and caught outside of Hall of Origin (Mystery Zone or Jubilife City). Shaymin does not transfer though, you can use a glitch to get it in platinum (original event). Shiny Arceus or Darkrai may not transfer into pokebank, using a special device works. If you are trying this, you should use the latest route make by retire, combining wrong warp by union room and fake sinnohs in the void, and never disables your step counter, making the route hardly fail.

You should really just do it in Platinum as that is the only game that got the Members Card and Oaks Letter and then not transfer Hall of Origin Arceus at all.

During my play, I beated Wattson and I decided to return to the second route for a Ralts. I found one and after I captured it, I found another one right away but it was a SHINY! I captured the shiny but the nature was Impish :'(. Then I was training a Rhyhorn and I returned to the tree city to cure myself and suddenly I got Pokérus! I was like "this file is really wild... I bet I can find a Feebas very easily" So I was hunting for a Feebas and wild SHINY Carvahna appeared! I found the Feebas later, on an easy spot but the Carvahna was funny. I have never captured two full odds shinies before (I found Pokérus before, that does not impress me that much lol). So I have to thank you for the wild experience lol.

You'll need it anyway to catch the new DLC exclusive Pokemon so I would just wait until those are out if time and money are more important than getting this done asap

I decided to do one in Emerald as it is my favorite. I made it through the game and started collecting the post game legendaries. I used the master ball on the roaming one then went to kyogre. It ended up fainting but no big deal, it was the first encounter and took all of 5 turns. The very next encounter it was SHINY!!! A natural shiny kyogre with no master ball and a possibility that it could recoil itself to death. Luckily it actually used rest and I was able to catch it before it started to struggle. It was the proudest moment of my pokemon experience. It wouldn't have happened if I didn't decide to do an oak run like a crazy person. Thank you.

Absolutely stellar, this already recently became my quest.

While I want to finish gen 3-5 my major goals is to use them to get event and other software exclusive rare movesets like "Box Ruby and Sapphire" ones, dream radar therians etc, but I want to get ORAS/XY conpleted. Once they are done, passing them through gen 7 with just complete Alolan formes and exlusives, then into home/SwSh. This os going to be a great guide and have fun at the con!

Hey John, glad to finally have someone publish a guide for the living dex. I've been trying to make one myself, but ended up somehow being 2 pokemon short. Just one thing though, the spreadsheet says "No Mirage Areas" even though there are at several lines of Pokemon that can ONLY be found in Mirage areas (Glameow, Kricketot and Blitzle, as well as Tangela for Tangrowth as you've listed in the sheet.), which I discovered when making my document as avoiding Mirage Areas forces trading or adding Black/White to the game list.

Thank you so much for doing this. I’m currently working on a full living dex myself, and this helps massively

I’m in quick for once keep up the fun interesting content

As Johnstone said in the video, Celebi can be obtained by buying and beating Pokemon Crystal, and Arceus can be gotten through the method discussed in the Jrose video mentioned for the Gen V pokemon (since that method's for both Gen IV and V) as long as you have access to a router that supports WEP-encryption for security, since Gen IV isn't compatible with WPA. And [Redacted], one of those two gens also had a Mew distribution available, so that video could help you, as well. That's how I got my Mew.

Thanks to the Pandemic i was able to complete a LivingDex from Gens 1 to 7 and oh boy, was a long trip haha, I made it basically like John says it, going game by game and saved me a lot of time! I did use the spreadsheet and saved me a lot of time! John, you are awesome!

FYI: SUMO and USUM are having issues with the GTS so you may need to back trackk on any trades you may need from there

I already had a full living dex up to gen 7, and then caught everything in SW and LGE (+meltan and melmetal in Go) so when Home came out, I just had to upload all my guys... But no magearna yet.

@@SongbirdOfficial Ya but they were few and far between them. In Yellow you can trade a Cubone for a Machoke to an NPC, but for people who can't easily trade with other people like myself it was hard obtaining certain trade evos, the GTS helped this until they ruined it with Pokemon Home.

I've always liked your videos, but that google docs sir, that moved you from great to legend. Thank you for your fun content!

Could we get an updated video?? With BDSP and all of the new games added, I think there might have been enough changes that it would be worthwhile! Also, thank you so much for the spreadsheet. This is going to be amazingly helpful!

16:38 I actually checked pokemon go to get the melmetal my dex was missing about a week ago and they reduced the cooldown time to 3 days. You get approx. 15-20 meltan per box so it should be easier than it was on release

damn, interesting vids and good looking fella

Looking sharp, dude!

Hey man, congrats on the success and being able to move across the country to follow your dream! That’s awesome. Didn’t know Georgia was the hot spot for Pokémon creators, but I hope you enjoy the southern weather! And you should come down to Texas sometime.

I'd never do this! But thanks John! 😅

Currently in my grind for this.... gonna have some mythical gaps of genesect, meloetta, hoopa, volcanion, and zeraora I think. Once it's all said and done.

Melmetal became a lot easier to obtain in GO since the last shiny meltan event. You can now use the box ever 3 days instead of 7. Also, the Serebii discord has a trade chat room and I find it to be the most active at the time of this comment.

Thanks for the google doc its going to be very helpful and saved me a lot of time from researching what games to catch the pokemon in. I'm gonna try to finish as much as I can before my pokemon bank free trial expires. I really should've finished my living dex a long time ago just got lazy

This is an extremely underrated video, it’s a tutorial to get everything. Everything. Cmon guys

I kinda panicked when he didn't at first say "Welcome back to yet another video"

I wonder how much this changes with the releases of BDSP and Legends. Legends especially makes it SUPER easy to get certain trade evolutions, though it still isn't all of them.

@@S.S.1993 Thankfully I think I have all of the mythicals from the 20th anni events. Besides those though, Mew can be gotten in Let's Go if you have a new Poke Ball Plus, or you can get Mew and Jirachi in BDSP. Celebi can be gotten in VC Crystal. Deoxys can be caught in ORAS. All of the Gen 4 myths can be caught in Legends. Magearna is just scanning a QR Code, and Meltan/Melmetal are just a lot of grinding in GO. That leaves Gen 5, 6, and most of 7 still locked behind events, and also Zarude. Zarude was actually the only mythical I had issues with, since I lost my copy of Shield around the time of that event, but luckily I got the event one in GO, so I just transferred that one. Still, 10 Pokemon being locked solely behind old events kinda sucks. At least with the newer save data ones, you can always have access to those.

Awsome video man, slowly working towards my national dex

Thanks a lot for the checklist! I was looking for one, this week's challenge will be getting that exclusive Magearna.

16:35 hold up its only 3 days for the Meltan box now.

Yoi can cut the cost of one 3DS by putting a mon you need to trade evo in the XY ORAS GTS and collecting it in ORAS(if in XY) or XY(if ORAS) Just make sure to make the request specific

This is cool! I'm glad this video was made. My brother and I own a lot of Pokémon games so I think I could do this, although I have missed a few Mythical Pokémon.

Some feedback to your spreadsheet that would REALLY upgrade the usability of it; 1. Link the checkboxes between pages 2. Add the numbers from the national dex to the list, at least in page 1 or create a new page with this list. With this, the usage would not only be easier, but also be possible to see the national dex in numerical sorted fashion, since that is how most will store their pokemon it is much easier to crosscheck between the list and your boxes. Aside from that; this resource is immensely useful and I salute you for your work.
