There's One Hundred and Fifty or More to See

     I really should have posted this one over a week ago when I first accomplished it, but I was able to actually collect all the first one-hundred and fifty-one original pokémon, including Mew (I had to break down and buy the last pokéball plus our local Wal-Mart had, as it turns out this is the only way to get Mew in Let's Go Pikachu or Eevee).  So, the first milestone of my epic quest to catch'em all is accomplished.  Now comes the hard part: filling in the rest.
     I've learned some things about the rest of the Pokémon Home pokédex.  You cannot trade pokémon of a mythic tier with anyone but a friend.  No GTC, no wonder box.  So any of the pokémon that can only be gotten from events like trade shows or the world championships, you can only trade from person to person.  This will make trading my Jirachis a little harder, but as I found out you can use Jirachi in Pokémon Sword & Shield, and they are a very competitive pokémon, I'm hoping that works in my favor.
     So wish me the best of luck and I'll update as soon as I can with the next big step in my journey to catch all the pokémon that are out there.
