    I just picked up a random infection of Pokerus!

    Didn't really need it, since I have a bunch of carriers in my other games, but a pretty cool surprise.

    Completed Episode RR
    That was a neat little thing. While the Delta Episode had the better moments with Zinna's battle and the Mega Rayquaza cutscene, this was better structured overall. Good puzzles (other than that last memory one), great music (Giovanni finally gets his own theme) and some satisfying battles. I like what happened with Giovanni post defeat, that was pretty cool.

    Mega Mewtwo was brutal, thankfully my Turtonator was high enough level that I could Max Revive spam it and whittle Mewtwo down with Flamethrowers. Fun fact: Psystrike doesn't trigger Shell Trap.

    Episode RR Spoilers
    The EXP share had made sure all of my team was over 70.

    John Cenya survived Mewtwo Y's focus blast with like 30 HP and pulled off Malicious Moonsault to win.

    If that hadn't happened, I would have been stuck whittling down Mewtwo.

    So I finally got Ultra Sun, which I think makes me the last person to open my Egg Swap, so without further ado, from @OmnipotentBagel I got:

    Blitzle!

    Timid Nature, 31/0/31/31/31/31

    Really excited to use him, I never really got the chance in BW/BW2 because I had too many favorites that generation that I couldn't find it a spot, but I was already looking for an electric type for this run to begin with. Thanks OB!

    So with that the final results of the Egg Swap were
    PaperLuigi44 (Corphish) - Saurfang (Skiddo)
    Terrendos (Misdreavus) - TheEscapeGoat (Budew)
    Nirya (Blitzle) - OmnipotentBagel (Shroomish)
    SilverWind (Aron) - Knob (Mareep)

    Thanks to everyone who participated, it felt good to see it all play out. And now the Corphish line has a place in my heart.

    I've always been in the exact same boat with Zebstrika (actually had one on my Black team until I got a Joltik, which, just can't be competed with, unfortunately)

    My big problem right now is that I haven’t been using that Blitzle (now a Zebstrika) all that often.

    It’s still in the party all the time but because I hatched it in Sun it has the bonus XP, so it’s almost always far ahead in level compared to everyone else.

    I had a similar problem with Geist the Mismagius. I even hatched it in UM and it still ended up almost ten levels higher than the rest of my team. I think it's because the rest of my team was very fluid, but she was a constant, so all the bonus exp from the EXP Share started to add up.

    She was always my ace in the hole, though.

    I could probably make an egg of something, though maybe we coordinate which Pokémon she gets?

    Elite Four
    I wasn't expecting a steel type trainer.
    My team was not prepared for that. Still managed though.

    Rainbow Rocket was fun
    Do you think the ending hinted at the next game, or a DLC?

    Nintendo DLC isn't out of the question anymore

    I enjoyed Rainbow Rocket.
    I liked the implication that all of these Bosses came from realities where they were successful in achieving their schemes but still failed because lol legendary Pokemon can't be controlled.

    I assumed they wanted Giovanni to have a respectable ending scene, but I'd be down for him to make an appearance next gen.

    Where'd you get the implication that they'd failed? It seemed to me that they did just fine, but they were pulled to Alola because of wormhole shenanigans. They even have their Pokemon in Master Balls, which I thought was a nice touch.

    They have a similar stories
    For example. Maxie says something like I summoned the legendary Pokemon to create more living space for all humans. And then a fissure opened up and I fell in and woke up here.all of the leaders have a similar line.
    Archie was crushed under a wave. Lysandre activated his superweapon and after a bright light wakes up with Rainbow Rocket
