Minor PSA: Make sure you autosave properly after finding a shiny 🫠

Fast travelled to WZ13 to clear it out (ironically, to get mega energy so I could take a new trainer pic with my shiny Mega Victreebell). As I was working through, realised that the Alpha Weepinbell was shiny, but knocked it out and missed my catch on it. Didn't do anything to trigger an autosave after that, so figured I'd reset to get it back. Game put me just outside the WZ (basically, just where id fast traveled to), but i guess that meant my last autosave was outside the Weepinbells range- which meant that the shiny wasn't stored.

Slightly gutted (not a hard thing to hunt, but would have loved the Alpha to drop pre-charm full odds into my lap), so take this as a warning to MAKE SURE your game has saved AFTER you see the shiny 🫠
