The reason I don't like emulators on Pokemon games is for one sole reason - shines. If I get one, the last thing I want is the shiny trapped on my phone. I won't play them on emulators unless it's Gen 1 or Gen 3 because that one is impossible unless you pay $200. Of course the last shiny I found was an exploud on emerald. I never seem to find them on my actual cartridges, which is so unfortunate. When you mentioned "fun to explore in the new game", do you mean Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee? Sorry, but I can't tell. I liked those games but never finished them.
I set a goal to hit 1,000 rating in chess. I reached around 960 and completely plummeted again. The feeling is awful. I'm thinking about quitting forever, or just playing one game per day. I guess some goals aren't meant to happen. I'm starting to feel inept and unintelligent. The goal became very personal and almost obsessive because I've felt I've been trying to prove to myself I'm not. It's been a bit unhealthy. The normal amount of games per day is 2-3. I've played nearly 20 today.
Always randomly feared I would get a message telling me "You don't belong here" or "Nobody likes you". Never happened here though. The worst thing that happened was someone calling me strange. But I don't think they meant to insult me.
I changed my avatar back to a very old one. I liked the other one, but it had no color.
