"[Video] It took me 230 days and 87 tries to get a shiny Absol, so I made a music video set to "A Thousand Years" to celebrate. :)"

#PokemonGO: I've spent the last couple days working on this music video in honor of Peaches, my first shiny Absol.Absol is one of my favorite shinies, and Peaches is the culmination of 230 days, 33 raids, and 54 quests. I will forever remember the moment I finally saw him. I had already given up on finding him and had decided to trade for a shiny instead, but I was waiting until best friends. I wheezed when I saw this boy on my catch screen.Since I was hoping to make something heartfelt and maybe amusing out of my long wait, I saved all 86 Absol before Peaches just for this. Hiding in this video are a 100% IV Absol (usually named Gremlin), two 15/14/15s (Blueberry and Cookie), and my first Absol (Cass), all of whom I also treasure. The rest of these babies will be up for trade so I can stop hoarding. :)This video is a spiritual successor to my Suicune music video and to this old clip I made with the same song to celebrate my first shiny Magikarp.Thank you to the dev of the PokeRater keyboard for facilitating copy-pasting on iOS and to Valor Trainer Jaeger153 for emoticon assistance. :) via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/2LTOJlv
