I want to complete the National Living Pokédex in Pokémon Home. A national Living Dex, as defined by Google, is "a Pokémon collection in which a player possesses at least one of every single Pokémon species simultaneously in their storage boxes (typically Pokémon Home), rather than just registering them in the Pokédex." This means having one of each Pokémon, not just one of each of the fully evolved ones.

Until I decided to start working on the Living Dex, I hadn't played any Pokémon game since Sapphire on the Game Boy Advance when I was a kid. At that point, there were 386 total Pokémon, which seemed like a lot, but now there are over a thousand, so I've got a lot of catching up to do.

I currently have a Nintendo Switch 2 that I plan on completing as much of the Dex as possible with, and I will figure out how to get the remaining Pokémon once I have gotten all of them that I can using the Switch.

This one isn't as deep as some of my other goals, but it's still something that I've wanted to do since I was a kid.
