72 pokémon picross - s06-01 piplup

Dear Readers,

This was a nice little puzzle. Piplup has lots of dark shades around its face and head so many of the clues were quite big. I set two Grass Pokémon for the mission and tried using up their ability as much as possible so I can get the medal for using their move 50 times. I'll get that eventually.

71 pokémon picross - training to unlock area 6

Dear Readers,

I did the daily training and earned 7 Picrites. I didn't meet the target time. They're getting hard enough, these dailies.

I also got a rare Pokémon sighting alert. However, this Pokémon is buried somewhere deep in area 8, and I haven't unlocked that yet. I was short well over a dozen Picrites, so I wouldn't have gotten it in time anyway. I decided to unlock area 6 instead, as I had just enough for that. It's gonna be a while until I can get to area 8... that rare Pokémon sighting might happen a few more times before I'll be able to get there.

253 zelda breath of the wild - searching for the zora inscriptions again

Dear Readers,

I rode Spotty to the point before the road to Zora's Domain where they couldn't go any further and ventured ahead. The blood moon had risen since the last time I was here, so I had to fight all the Lizalfos and other enemies again. I didn't mind too much as it was good practice.

I did lose focus and get preoccupied with looking for those stone inscriptions with the Zora lore again, so it took forever for me to get there. These inscriptions seemed to be all over the place and I couldn't find them all. I found as many as I could and continued on to Zora's Domain eventually.

I explored a lot around this area and it was rainy and murky, and often at treacherous heights so it was dizzying and draining but still good fun.

252 zelda breath of the wild - cooked apple selling business

Dear Readers,

I decided to head to Zora's Domain again. I rode from Akkala, detoured to Kakariko and even picked apples along the way to make dishes to sell. I set my Sheikah Slate radar thingy to apples so I can pick them along the way to a cooking pot.

I'm trying to concentrate on making money by doing stuff like this, focusing on apples at the moment. There are probably better ways, but this game has a way of making you lose focus. It took me a long time to get to Zora's Domain!

70 pokémon picross - all missions in ash-greninja

Dear Readers,

Not a lot I can do at the moment but I was able to try getting all the missions done on the Ash-Greninja stage, so I set Ash-Greninja and Zygarde Complete Forme as my Pokémon.

I chose to have the whole left side of the puzzle revealed and I used Blue Reveals to get other clues done as quickly as I could. I solved the puzzle in half the time needed and I got the water type and blue force missions done as well so I got all the missions done here.

69 pokémon picross - a nice bit of training

Dear Readers,

Today's training session was time consuming and I didn't make the record. However, I had a nice time earning the 7 Picrites. I'm at level 6.

68 pokémon picross - s05-08 zygarde complete forme

Dear Readers,

This one was very dense. It's kind of hard to see what it is, even when it's revealed. I set Ash-Greninja and 10% Forme, which has an awesome square reveal where you can choose what to reveal. It comes in very handy.

I like the three Zygardes! They're very powerful and they'll help me finish puzzles quickly for missions.
