Hot-N-Cold [EP. 4]: The Spooky And Bone-Chilling Reality
Gaslight, Goosebump, and Ghostbust Our Way to the Top
Introduction
Now that that is over, I have come to do the usual debrief. It should not look too much different from my past "Hot-N-Cold" posts, though I did not record day-to-day encounters. I did not think the length of the swarm warranted any special time-lapse graphs.

Okay, the general takeaways from my encounter numbers were that Gastly was more common than Spinarak, Woobat was more common than Misdreavus, and Yamask was a darn annoying spawn to find. Misdreavus holding/dropping Dusk Stones will help to evolve future Misdreavuses, Murkrows, and Lampents. Cubone holding/dropping Thick Club will help future, well, Marowaks thwack stuff. You only need at most 6 Thick Clubs for a full Marowak/Cubone team, and the rest can be donated as artifacts to the Pewter City Museum. Found myself a couple of good Foongus which I'll be happy to train for PvP action and the one Yamask I found was decent enough to use. Plenty of good Woobat flapping around and waiting to swoop the competition.
The new thing I added to this was a graph displaying the total amount of shinies caught by trainers willing to share. Of the 74 trainers I recorded to be hunting in the swarm: 52 answered/were at least partially recorded and 2 abstained. To be honest, that was a great turnout and goes to show the power of simply asking. As is, 32 trainers made up the 142 shiny total (18 trainers found 0 shinies). Surprisingly, S Haunter was caught just as much as S Spinarak. Of the surveyed trainers, four lucky individuals managed to land themselves a S Woobat and three others found a S Misdreavus. Kudos to them. I've attached a snippet of the top ten trainers contributing the most to the total above.
All in all, I had a grand time yucking it up in the Pokémon Tower 5F and trying to find ways to ignore/bear the nuisance of tallying every single encounter. In the words of the beloved Borat Sagdiyev: "GREAT SUCCESS!" (Is this the part where I drop some life advice? Um..err..Fear kills more dreams than failure ever will. Don't worry 'bout the haters, they just J.E.A.L.O.U.S.
)Edit: Oh, and how can I not shamelessly plug my Unofficial Event. Nov. 20 is the deadline!
