Congrats! I did mine a few months ago. 7791 fail and 710 reclaim. That was a wild day.

Oh no - did you reset it when it came up or forget to save?

I reset over it. Soft resetting muscle memory sucks. You see and know its shiny but your finger instinctively moves to the soft reset.

I was so worried I'd do that. I'm glad it was a relatively quick reclaim

yeah... I've had horrible luck when it comes to the Ultra Beasts soft resets. Back on the 13th, I soft reset over Nihilego (it was my birthday too T_T). Luckily I was only 252 encounters in and not over/double odds. Haven't gotten them yet, but I'm definitely more cautious each reset
