Ranking from most difficult to easiest to complete Pokedex:

Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee
Sword and Shield
Legends Arceus
Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl
Scarlet & Violet

Let's Go is the hardest because of the version exclusives. Nobody is playing this game in 2024, so the GTS requests for this game were... barren to say the least. There's also no breeding, so anything I missed when registering what I had to HOME had to be re-caught. Which was a pain. With no ability to request for specific origin marks getting what you need is not fun. While you can restrict trades to only go through if it can go into Let's Go, this also applies to GO Pokemon that have not touched a non let's go game, so do keep that in mind.

Sword & Shield is #2 for a similar reason. Older game less trading activity and needing Pokemon with that origin mark is annoying because many of these Pokemon are in Scarlet and Violet. And because you can't request for origin marks, you'll be getting far more coming from that game instead of this one.

Legends Arceus only really has 2 nasty Pokemon to get. Shaymin and Darkrai who for the first time you actually do need. And you need to buy/rent two full priced games to even unlock the missions for them. But it's straight forward from there, and the game is actually really fun to play through.

BDSP is not terrible. Only 150. And you can breed what you don't have. It's just Mespirit and Cresselia that suck.

Scarlet and Violet: tedious but that's it. You can get trade evolutions and the new evolutions with the stupid methods through raids, Pokemon appear in the overworld so you can't miss what you're looking for. The daycare being mobile helps tremendously. It's easier than ever to grind EXP candies in this game because of the Blissey raids.

oooh, btw, if anyone needs some help with Pokedex I have LG: Eevee, Sword, BD and Violet so i could help

Played is a strong word xd haven't finished any pokemon game other than gen9 in a while xd


How do i get Melletta? I got one in DLC
No worries, it's the intention that counts (and the money you spent to buy them). Didn't you like the storylines enough to finish them or what? XD

As for the shiny, the one you caught in DLC is the normal one. To get shiny, you need to complete the dexes. Here's how to get.

Yeah you need the dlc legendaries to get her.
You don't need Walking Wake or Iron Leaves however.
 
really don't think it will last tbh

i tried pocket one and while it's fun at the begining, it's turning into pay to play really fast

i mean, people got most of the cards now but with next expansion there will be no beginer bonuses and they'll realize how little 2 packs a day let them do, not to mention f2p items got 50% increase in prices already (in like 2 days)

i don't think this game will last a year tbh
