Wishiwashi's actually catchable just before the second trial. Those Wishiwashi Lana has you battle before the totem? Those are encountered before the trial actually begins, so they are catchable.

I'd say you enter late game at the point you pick up the box legend. That sort of neatly solves the fact that the plot is different per game. RBY, since it has no box legend, is a lot harder to assign, especially since you aren't done with Team Rocket until you beat the 8th gym. There are a lot of points you could say RBY enters the late game in, actually. Beating Silph Co., Pokemon Mansion, and beating the gym challenge all work - Victory Road is honestly massive in RBY and the 8th gym is definitely more of a tipping point in RBY than it is in any of the other games, which have their tipping points marked by box legends.
In gen 7 that means that: Spoiler: show I use the word PLOT to describe the plot but reading this will give you an idea of the structure of the story and the direction of the plot beyond what you'd get simply by playing through it.

...I just hatched a Shiny Bounsweet. O_O As with Wimpod, yes, the parents were different languages, but I wasn't actually shooting for a Shiny!

So does anyone know how far in the game Synchronize-mons are available?
Just curious as I bought Moon and giving it to myself tomorrow, and I want my Ingame Team to have beneficial Natures (which now actually works because EV-reset juices and hyper training) for semi-Comp, and I just want to know if it's worth holding off until Abra/Ralts/whatever is available or if I need to find someone to trade me one also because breeding during maingame is a big nono |

Just Masuda Method. Not only was I not even trying to get a Shiny at that time (I was just trying to breed a Bounsweet with good IVs), I don't even use the Magikarp Egg Trick, personally. If I did use that trick, you'd see me reporting Shinies like Mareanie and Salandit before anything else (and I'm a little nervous to try for a Shiny Salandit for obvious reasons).

Apparently, the game works out far in advance how many Eggs it takes you to hatch a Shiny. The trick is to first save the game, then breed a buttload of Magikarp, since they hatch the quickest, and if you hatch a Shiny, take note of what number Egg it hatched from. Then reset and breed something different, and you should get a Shiny from the same number Egg.

It's important to note after hatching the shiny that you DON'T save before restarting.

Does anyone who's tried this know how long this takes compared to just chaining?

The MM shiny chances are better than the Chaining shiny chances, and you also have a high degree of control over what the stats/ability of your 'mon is, where you don't with Chaining. With the spinning box and the fast hatch rate of Magikarp, it'll probably be faster overall.

I got Moon today, and I think I'll break tradition and do a mono run. My top pick is Ghost since a YouTuber I found is doing a BugLocke. Don't really want to copy him. Mine won't be a Locke of any kind either.
I'm thinking for my team: Alola-wak, Ghost Oricorio, Dhelmise, Sandygast's evolution, and something else. I'm thinking of using my RNG'd shiny Golett too. Totem Faticate is going to be a challenge. |

maybe the ghost starter so that you have a pokemon to use for the first three trials?
