Originally started in 2019 with a plan of a very calculated playthrough with 16 traded eggs to build a team from my Pokemon White save. Wanted to play with a variety of exclusively Gen V Pokemon while mixing and matching teams from the 16 for each gym; 4 Pokemon per gym battle was my own rule.
Things got slow towards the end of the year, and then played on and off throughout 2020, until finally things got kicked into high gear around the 13th of Jan 2020 and I sped through the last 3 gyms and finished the game.
Was an interesting experience having my team for the whole game planned out, and also balancing the large team of 16 Pokemon. Might wanna cut down that number the next time I try something similar.

Right after the second badge. By far better than its predeccesor up to this point. I fear, however, that the story might be the only thing that is really lacking, at least for now.
