      Very nice, really fun grid shape — was surprised that nothing was totally double checked!

        Thanks, I kind of stumbled into this grid shape and was equally surprised!

          The clue for 5D is an unreal Pokémon reference. Blew my mind. The word “originally” makes so much sense because there were 151 Pokémon originally, right?

            Thanks! Yes, Gen 1 had 151 Pokémon — I kind of stumbled into that clue after going with the Pokémon angle for MISTY which made me realise the potential connection with "151", very happy with how it turned out!
