6th Gen How close are you to completing the national pokedex?

[Reshiram643]

I finally got all 718 Pokemon on April 12! How close are you to completing the National Pokedex? You get the shiny charm from Professor sycamore when you get the National Pokedex completed but you don't need any of the event exclusive Pokemon. You get Pokedex completion certificates if you go to Coumarine City hotel and talk to the game director if you completed your Pokedex, but you don't need any of the event Pokemon for the certificates either.

Event Pokemon are: Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, and Genesect.

I am nowhere near completing the National Dex, let alone having just 12 Pokémon. Let me try to make that a challenge; For the first time in my life, I will strive to actually catch them all!

 

[Skirovik]

I have 711 so far, but some of those are event pokemon. The non-event pokemon I still need are Groudon, Palkia and Giritana. So close! I've never completed a pokedex before although I did give it a good try in HeartGold (which saved me some effort in X thanks to the pokebank!).

 

[Flushed]

I believe I'm at 712, and I have been for quite awhile. Haven't really been trying to get rest of the event exclusives, the Shiny Charm was enough for me. But let's see, I believe I have Mew, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione, Shaymin, and Genesect left.

 

[Firox]

I think it was on either April 3rd or 4th that I completed the PokeDex, 718 of them.

 

[Meganium]

I'm currently at 405, with 500 Pokemon seen. Still working on the trade evolutions, and evolving all the starters for dex entries. Long way to go, but I'm getting there!

 

[L3onidas]

I still have a very long way to go, I'm just starting now to catch all the pokemon in X.

 

[ElectricMafia]

Completed if apart from some of the events that I don't think I will ever get my hands on e.g Jirachi

 

[Kikaito plush]

I have completed the dex part from the hidden Kalos three and Meloetta

 

[Pendraflare]

I completed mine ten weeks ago, excluding the event legendaries. 707 currently I think, don't know if i'll worry about the event legends anytime soon though.

 

[Centipede Chan]

I'm pretty close. I got about 641 pokemon, and all event legendaries that aren't 6th gen. Right now I'm hunting for a shiny Fennekin though but I should really get to finishing the pokedex to make that hunt easier.

 

[Reshiram643]

For those that didn't complete your pokedex, black 2 and white 2 has a regional dex of 300 pokemon. You can also get a lot of legendaries from black 2 and white 2, and heartgold and soulsilver.

All 718 baby here! :D Took a while and lots of trading but it was worth it; I'm happy seeing the little Pokeball icon around each Pokemon I encounter, hah.

 

[Arc]

Got around 650-ish Pokemon now. So I'm not too far off since I'm mainly missing evolutions. I'd expect to be finished it in the next few months. Interesting to note, it would actually be my first time ever finishing the National Dex, haha.

 

[Hiatus]

Currently, I have only around 150. :( Been planning to start finishing off my Dex for a while, but I just get around to it. Every time I do, I instantly lose motivation, unfortunately. Seriously wish it weren't like this.

 

[Skirovik]

All I need now is Genesect. I'm aware that I don't need Genesect to get the Shiny Charm and the Certificate but I want to be able to say "This is the day I completed the Pokedex. All 718. For this accomplishment I received the Shiny Charm and a Certificate from the Game Director."

I would much rather that all happen on the same day. :P

 

[Jakeremix]

I don't know how people do this and make it sound so easy. Filling the Pokedex isn't just catching them all- you have to actually evolve every single one of them too, and that is why it's so time consuming.

Around three and a half weeks ago, I started MM'ing for a shiny Rotom. Here I am at 1200 eggs and absolutely nothing (unless I accidentally released it without knowing). So anyway, I took a huge break and I'm now working on this to see if the Shiny Charm will help out at all. Right now I'm at around 415... It's great to see that number slowly rising, but sometimes I wonder if I'll ever make it. .-.

 

[Skirovik]

Woo finally completed the Pokedex - all 718! ^^

So happy! Never completed a Pokedex before.

 

[PauloPT90]

Thanks to Pokemon bank i have reached the 700´s mark
Now i have to trade some Pokemon to reach the 718

 

[DonavinVice]

I completed mine almost 8 weeks ago and started working on a Living Dex. Completed that one in almost a week. Was super hard work and a lot of bartering in the Trade Corner, but it's done! I can proudly say I own one of every Pokemon (except Diancie, Volcanion and Hoopa). Good luck to all on their quests to complete the Dex, it was truly worth it in my opinion!
