What we huntin /vp/ Previous Thread: >>58466568
If want shiny aron, these are the steps right?>Fly to area 14>Run in and spawn arons and lairons>No shiny>Run out>Fly ro Area 14 to resetRight? I have the shiny charm as well
>>58473918Yeah pretty much and with shiny charm it should be pretty easy
>>58473918You can cut out the run out and just open the map and fly back to the gate from inside the zone
>>58473923Can’t fast travel because of the drilber fucks right at the gate opening
Another day, Another try for ralts.
>>58473943Literally me but with magikarp instead. We got this anon
Got a male ‘rita
>3/6 shinies I have are blue>Banette>Garbordor>StunfiskNot a bad color but I think my rng favors it. They're all alpha as well. No charm.
I got this guy in about an hour of resetting. Really painless shiny hunt.
>>58473975I am legit starting to suspect that each playthrough is seeded so certain pokemon or areas are more or less likely to spawn shinies with the way things are going since I am not even finding other mons in the area as shiny while trying.
yeah…yeah…
Did they change palettes for ZA? Mons look less washed out than usual, and Gengar is at least visibly different from its shiny now, for example.
>>58474068Wait until you see how shiny Slowpoke looks like now
>hunting for shiny beldum>catch a shiny alpha arbok>catch a shiny noivern>catch a shiny honedge>catch a shiny alpha houndoomCome on, give me a manectric next so I can clear out the whole lab
This pic aint framed as good as good as the other one, but the shit eating grin is to good not to share
>>58474017everyone goes through that phase. I once almost reached 700 eggs before that fish shined gold. just keep at it raltsanon
no crying in the teleporter
Frog Gods please let me get Froakie early...
I really want a shiny Furfrou. Looked on and off for one a little bit here and there. Will keep at it but I might end up with the shiny charm before too long. Would be pretty simple then I bet.
Let's say I got a turbo controller and have the stick held down by a bench,Can I just fuck off for a couple of hours and there will be shiny Pokemon when I come back?
>>58474150Yeah.
>>58474084Lucky. I wish I could've found a shiny Beldum...
>>58474155Cool, imma take a piss and make breakfast, wish me luck on Skarmory.
>>58473918Got a shiny pidgey, onyx and drilbur but no aron baka
>>58474157I still haven't found the beldum
Starting to reach the point where I would be fine with any shiny popping up, even a bad one, the drought has been going on for three days of on/off hunting now
>>58474174I have an extra Pidgey and a extra Ariados. Weird how I found doubles of both but I could spare one if you get super desperate. Getting to the point where I need to trade to finish my dex.
>>58473896FUAAAARK I kind of want a shiny alpha dragonite now. Where can I find that alpha Dratini spawn?
>30 min huntFucking nice.
>>58474228I'm about to have a 30 minute hunt on them toes of yours.
>>58474232Your nose isn't big enough and your skin not yellow enough for her, sorry.
>>58474247What is she into, chinese jews?
>>58474255retard
>Got a shiny Lairon>It’s a female>Get a shiny excadrill right afterI’m seething I just want a male aron
>>58474068Bro glaceon is just perma shiny now
>>58474261This game's shiny hunting is the most I've seen people seethe at lmao
Give it up for day 4 of the spinarak hunt. About 4-5 hours a day, I think I just hit the 20 hour mark. I’ve found shiny weedles, Patrats, ghosts and swords. No spin. I even said I’d be happy with an ekans but nope. Beginning to lose sanity - I had a run of about 3 shinies in an hour and nothing since, so I assume my luck has dried up. Still we reset. I sort of wish I had the money for a turbo controller right now, but that’s just the devils temptation creeping in.
>>58474261You don’t want a big shiny metal powerhouse of a female monster? That’s gay anon. You should treat them with the respect they deserve.
>>58474276cheap ones are about 20 euro/dollar but spinarak should be easy enough without
>>58474276I have a shiny Ariados you could have but if you are specifically after spinarak I am sorry.
>>58474282See this was my rational too, but now this hunt is dragging on so long become my white whale.
>>58474280I’m autistic about nicknames so no, I don’t. I will never forgive gamefreak for removing cute charm from tbe overworld
>>58474285That’s kind of you anon but I like the satisfaction of the jingle and knowing I caught them for my ‘tism, I’m just whining in the hopes it’ll spark up my luck. Congrats on the bug bro though! I hope your future hunts go less painful than mine haha
>>58474298You got this buddy. I continue my own hunt for a shiny furfrou. I want something special to take for haircuts.
Question, do ground mount pokemon (Gabite, Drilbur, Onix) sparkle when they are in the ground, or only after coming out of it?
>>58474333In the ground.
>>58474335Oh thank god, I've been popping them out one by one
>>58473896I did it,bros! I don't have a chunker like OP but I have my pool noodle!
>>58474420Nice job, bro. How long did it take?
Setting up my sticks so i run in a circle around 20 and going to bed, wonder how it will turn out
>>58474457I was just wondering yesterday if you setup a macro to do that the starters would be way easier.
>>584744262 days, 7 hours! Now, it's to train her up to catch up to the rest of the group
From how far away can you hear the shiny audio cue? I want to try to reset for the Dratini right on top of the restaurant, but constantly going up the ladder makes the process drag a bit.
>>58474494try this https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WKleWE2qN0o
>>58474499Oh. Thanks mate
>>58474090
Daily reminder that shiny hunting in modern games doesn't mean shit. Anything below full odds (that's 1/8192 for all you under 18 kids) doesn't count as a legitimate shiny
>>58474618You sound mad and jealous
>>58474618Checked your twitter and just want to say you seem like an insufferable faggot
>>58474618Cute hacked mon btw:3
>>58474618Cry about it
>>58474629I don't have twitter lmao
>Finally see another shiny aron after 7 more random shinies>Another femaleI’m done for the night
>>58474737Female metal kaiju is kino, you tasteless fag.
>>58474737Faggot
>>58474748>>58474755>Wanting to bring female pokemon into harmful battlesYou guys are the fags, men don’t put women in danger
>>58474762My women are the danger
>>58474762>a fag and a simpsheesh
>>58474762It's not a woman, it's a cartoon of a female animal. Retard.
>>58474737Ignore the haters anon. I spent 6 hours before I got my alpha lairon to be a male. They don't understand that you're looking for a bro to smash shit with, not something you want to bang. Keep it up, I believe in you!
>>58474772They’ll never get what we’re after battle bro anon
Also, I’m kind of annoyed because shiny hunting was so easy in Violet that I basically shiny hunted almost everything in ZAs pokedex already. Home support better be ON or before pokemon day so help me
>>58474762>never heard of the righteous anger and strength of a pissed-off mother protecting her offspring
>>58474685https://x.com/safi_bb
>>58474762>never heard of a lioness.
>>58474824>>58474836Stop samefagging. I prefer male Pokemon because potential nicknames are cooler and my autism demands it because I think of training them like a shonen
>bench resetting for an alpha fennekin>50+ resets>still no alpha>go to ground level for shits and gigs>shiny alpha lopunny>thankfully femaleI guess I'll take it
>>58474838lol
>>58474838Whatever fag.
>>58474843>>58474859Stop projecting your latent homosexuality onto others, accept yourselves, it’s ok
>>58474869>Cries because he didn't get a male BF pokemon to fuck>"y-y-y-you guys are *sniff* g-g-gay...."You okay anon? You seem really upset.
>>58474772>boy I am sure am glad my fictional dinosaur made of rocks and metal has a cock, otherwise I might be compelled to have sex with it
>>58474885>>58474905>Thinking about fucking an animalThat’s where we differ, you gay weirdos, I just want a bro to fight stuff with. Pokefucker freaks like you need to rope.
>>58474912You brought up gay sex first.Not us.
>it says defending xer choice of male over female to goon over a shonen take on themMeanwhile I bred this little beauty in Sword in 19 eggs (can pull up the /shw/ thread I'd posted her in) and went through 22 males before finding 3 female Popplio in Violet and didn't bitch once that all I found was shiny cock. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
>>58474918The thread is readable, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>58474928Yes. And you brought it up first.Are you confused?
>>58474921You have deeper issues than caring about pokemon gender, you might be legitimately autistic.These threads used to be fun, now it’s just trannies with ascerbic “humor” ruining every conversation.Rope after you dilate
>>58474935Show me where I said the word “fag” first, all I did was complain about getting two females back to back and a bunch of shiny shit I don’t want
>>58474947>Show me where I said the word “fag” first,Sure, I'll spoonfeed you.Right here>>58474762Then you brought up homosexuality again, here>>58474869
>>58474959Are you a stupid fucking retard? I was called a fag first, and responded. >>58474748>>58474755
>>58474973Not by me tho, so it's irrelevant to our discussion.
>>58474985So what the fuck are you replying to me for then you abject retard? This board has become unbearable
>>58474989I'm replying to you because you keep asking me questions and replying to me.Why are you getting so upset? if you stop replying to me, i'll probably go away.
>after days of trying finally get a shiny noise in the ralts patch>it's a motherfucking weedle Genocide the bugs.
Say, is there some sort of early shiny lock in plac?I feel the need to ask because, for example, you can't find alphas until you clear that side mission with an Alpha Bunnelby.Is it the same for shinies or can I start to warp to Wild Zone 3 over and over to find a Pikachu right now?
>>58475078No
>>58475078There's no shiny locks for anything besides starters, gifts, and legendaries afaikSome people have reported shinies in fucking trainer battles
>>58475082No what."No there isn't a lock" or "No you can't start hunting just yet"?>>58475084>There's no shiny locks for anything besides starters, gifts, and legendaries afaikAlright. Thanks Anon.>Some people have reported shinies in fucking trainer battlesYikes.
Overnight AFK hunting in Area 20. Got a Malamar and an Alpha Barnacle out of it. Feels good. Really hoping i can land an Alpha Hawlucha and a Gardevior
>>58475101You can get shinies while being AFK in this game?
>>58475084>they're still locking legendsFucking FAGGOTS
>>58475104With a turbo controller and a rubber band, yeah. Just sleeping in benches like a hobbo all night near spawns. Alot of Wild Areas have benches in them so it helps.
>>58475109So how are you capturing them while AFK?
Whats a decent cheep turbo controller for the switch 2?
>>58475111The shinies dont despawn, i catch them when i wake up.
>>58475111It saves 10 shinies, you just check and catch later
>>58475105Please visit your local GameStop for shiny Zy with megastone and shiny AZ Floette :)
>>58475115>>58475119Oh wow, thanks for the explination.
Help me decide whether to go for Ralts or Dratini first.Gonna do both eventually.
>>58475138Do you want Gardevoir or Gallade?
>>58475126Shinys only disappear if you beat them, or if they're programmed to run away/teleport. Other than the, the game actually keeps the shiny spawned in. You may have to check during the day and night if its a night only spawn.
>>58475142Garde a bit more, but want to get both at some point.
>>58475124>didn't even bring the shiny don's to the UKI was legit mad, why have online distribution if you don't use it? If it must be attached to a store just make it the pokemoncenter or Nintendo store or some shit.
>>58475149Its insane that Gamestop is even still alive. TPC has to be keeping them on life support. Had they gone bankrupt, they would have had no option for any more in-person distributions in the US, which means they would've gone digital for everyone.
What's the best way to shiny farm Dratini? I'm sick of going back and forth that bridge
>>58475159>I'm sick of going back and forthFirst shiny hunt? The rooftop despawn Dratini is as good as it gets.
>>58474618>my odd colored virtual animal is more valid than your odd colored virtual animal because I suffered moreNah you are just a miserable cuck
Botted through the Le Nah battles and I don't even feel bad about it. Whoever decided on 1k battles needed in a game that only handed you about 300 throughout the story is a pencil neck.
I've been running back and forth for this Ralts for a while now, are there any other spawns in the area I should be checking? I think the roofs are tall enough that it doesn't affect anything but there's some Buneary on the other side of the wall in a different courtyard
For Ralts I've been doing this method where I run from one end of the red line to the other to reload both of them, go back to check, and repeat.Is there a better one?
>>58475225You know that lamp near where you are running to? You can just circle that to de and respawn them.
>>58475233There's two there, in the blue and green spots. Which one do you mean?
>>58475225You can run from the cafe to the wall and then back to reset.You'll be able to hear the shiny sound when you hit the wall.
>>58475248Green one
>>58474618You are right, but in todays world you cant expect children to have patience for that, so now everything is cheap and easy to get
>>58475280I thoughted Switch games costed more but now they are cheaper?
>>58475287>thoughted>costedAre you 12? Or ESL?
>>58474228delectable femboi
>>58473896>going to mega amphy fight>hear my first shiny jingle>it's a fletchinder on the taxi below>jump off the building >it flies away and despawnsI didn't save beforehand, how do I cope frens? It would've been a new shiny for me too...
>>58475290I just Googeled and Switch 2 is more expensive so Switch 2 shinies are much valuable.
>>58475298I thought shiny Pokemon don't despawn?
>>58475303they do if you scare them
>>58475300Are you 12? Or are you ESL?
>first pokemon game without himImma be sick frens
>>58475162Not really? I'm no shiny hunter but I've done it before, specially in SV and Arceus. I have like 15 shinies in Z-A already but none of them by just running like a drunk duck in some rooftop
>>58475308Pokamon? Stop hitting on me creep.
>>58475298have you tried going back?I saw a video of a guy showing all the shinies he had in the map and he had a fletching that would always fly away but he always came back
>>58475312Are you ESL? Or are you 12 years old?Either way, stop posting.
>>58475309Ditto wasn't in Hisui either
>>58475314Don'ted tell my what to do.
>>58475318Thanks for confirming you are 12 years old.
Does anyone know if there are any spots with a GUARANTEED dedenne spawn? Or is it always paired with something else? Trying to hunt this fucker and it's given me two shiny Emolga instead.
Anyone got the trade evos that require held items? Could I borrow them for a sec to complete the Dex? I have a Shiny Scrafty to give for your services.I need Scizor, Steelix, Aromatisse and Slurpuff. Slowking is also welcome.
>>58475313I tried just in case and it didn't come back....
>>58475326Not your fetish diary i fear.
>>58475333>Now it's spamming the threadWhy?
>>58475330did you try immediately or waited for a while?give it another try in an hour or so, just to be sure
>>58475275>>58475233Is this AFK-able?
>>58475342Why would it come back an hour later? That's retarded.
>>58475341Idk this guy really wants to talk to kids in a shiny thread and asks everyone their age. Kinda creepy.
>>58474834>https://x.com/safi_bbWtf, that is not me, I'm from 95. I genuinely thought I was the only one in the world with this name
>>58475344because pokemon in this game have a "cooldown" when they disappear after being scared away or killed
>>58475343Somewhat, use a rubber band to start circling but when the day and night switches it can some times mess with the camera and you need to readjust.
>>58475352Where is this mechanic documented?
>>58475359It's observable. KO or scare something and see how long it takes for another mon to respawn in that spot.
i just saw a shiny pidgey disappearing in front of my eyes
>>58475359it's called experiencewell, just do it if you want or not
>>58475362Okay. Now prove it's the same one that respawns everytime.I'll wait.
>>58475367I don't know why you're so against checking in an hour but go fuck yourself then, faggot
>>58475374>can't prove his own claims to be trueKnew you couldn't do it.
>>58475159there's a Dratini spawn to the east of WZ4 that has a bench on a rooftop facing it. very easy to AFK but since it's a single spawn you can expect odds to not be in your favor and take a few nights of idling.
>>58475394Map?
>>58475406pin is Dratini, player is roof with benches. other spawn within range are Fletchling, Ekans, Budew, Gastly, Haunter, Swablu and Goomy
>>58475424I don't even know how to reach that place, I don't have the rotom upgrade yet
>>58474973Don't @ me ever again, you AIDS ridden faggot.
>>58475534rotom upgrade is early into the story. chapter 15 or so. just progress for it because it makes traversal far easier and is necessary to get all the plush upgrades.
>>58475588>chapter 15 is earlyI'm over 35 hours in and just finishing chapter 10I think I'm cooked
The hunt for a shiny Honedge or Ghastly is going fucking terribly. Wild zone 4 is fucking cursed.
>>58475687The best spot for honedge might be lysandre labs, there's 3 guaranteed spawns and you can just hit the teleporter repeatedly
>>58475600pretty sure you also need the rotom phone for this other location and it might just not work in general but i have just created a macro to fly to Cafe Soleil to reset for Staryu and there is technically a Dratini on a rooftop that is less than 50m away from the fly spot.however i am inclined to believe that rooftop spawns work different when you reset on the ground based on my observations at Restaurant Le Nah where the Fletchlings would only fade in when i walked up some stairs away from Le Nah (not the ladder) even if i was within 50m and should have been able to see them otherwise.
>>58475708Yeah maybe I'll just do this instead, thanks anon.
I want to try the afk stair method in Wild Zone 3 for a Shiny Espurr, but don't know if this shit is even possible on Switch 1 because I don't know if the spawn radius for Espurr is far enough.
>>58475742I don't need the upgrade for that one, that's where I have been trying to get the shiny so far, but I don't think it's close enough to the Dratini spawn, is it?
>>58475767It is. You're good.
>>58475800Ok good, I was afraid Espurr would be to far to spawn for a Shiny since the Switch 1 has worse draw distance /spawn and all.
>>58475816NTA but it does work on S1, I did it on mine. Just be careful of Espurr since it's one of the few mons that can run away. If it runs away you won't see it again.
>>58475841Good good, yeah it possibly running away is going to be a bitch too kek, glad it can spawn though.
>>58475687Funny, I posted earlier about my Spin hunt in the same area (24 hours officially passed now…) and all I can get is bloody hondege and ghastly. It genuinely is cursed.
>genned shinies are now available for freeits over bros, we had a good run
>Just realized Alpha Pumpkaboo isn't fixed to XL and still has 4 different sizes>XL is more common at night so I can't reroll for Beedrill/Scolipede at the same time>Also want it to be female
>>58475867Where and how… so I can report and avoid it, I don’t want to trade my legit shinies for genned ones
>>58474618unc moment
>>58475877>trading your shiniesliterally why?
>>58475887its a core part of the game schizo
>>58475877You'll litereally never know if a shiny is genned or not.It's why "legit shinies" are worthless, because they are indistiguishable from the hax.
>>58475900I see no reason to trade shinies since they have no value unless I get them myself
>>58475887Because I’m hunting for a certain mon, but keep getting 5 of the other mon in the area - why would I keep duplicates when I can trade them for something else I’d like?
>>58475797Technically the spawn is within 50m, but since it's obscured by the roof there's no way to see it to know if it actually spawned or not. My testing with other locations is that for a rooftop spawn to load in you need to be within 50m but also close enough on the vertical axis, so my observation leads me to believe that indeed, no, the Dratini won't spawn by flying to Cafe Soleil. Assuming someone else out there hasn't already proved/disproved this, since there are a few Budew on that same rooftop within range if I happen to get one of them to be shiny while trying for Staryu I'll update back since that should mean that rooftop spawns don't need to load in visually for the check to occur.
>>58475867Where so I can stop trying for this shitty alpha shiny I'm hunting
>>58475935he's not gonna answerhe posted the same shit 1 or 2 threads ago and never provided proofpkhex for ZA isn't ready yet either
>>58475687You'll get yours in time, brother. I only just got my Gastly and evolved it to a Haunter.
>>58474013I'm about 4 hours deep.
>>58475365it happened again
>>58473896any tips for hunting Drampa? I'm going fucking insane
>>58476070Pay attention to the shiny sound next time
>>58476129Get him in 5 encounters like me.
>>58476149Had that kind of luck with a random litwick in the sewers and froakie just earlier, it's not happening again
Can the Pokemon in Lysandre Labs be shiny? I left my controller on turbo overnight at a teleporter and there wasn't a single shiny when I woke up for work. It's possible I just got unlucky but I thought I should double check.
>>58476214Of course they can be but just standing in the tp probably doesn't spawn alot of them
Larvitar Update5013 encounters down with no end in sight. Feeling down; I remember why I swore off shiny hunting without the charm now...
>>58474618Thank you for taking your valuable time away from yourself

>>58476286Anything you’re specifically looking for it if you’d like to trade it? Sorry about the other retard who tried to scam you
I got a bunch of shiny bagons and swablus if anyone wants to trade their extra shinies
>>58476474Can i load the trade with shinies and then back out and give you regular mons
>>5847647425803697 meursaultIs a pidgy or kakuna OK?
>>58476520I'll take the pidgey (I've got 12 weedles already...)
>>58476552Pleasure doing business, and yeah I have a good few weedle/kakuna while going for ralts.
>>58476360Thanks for taking a break and leaving some luck for me
>>58476422i don't need any shinies but if you have any trade evos that evolve with items i can trade for one of those
>>58476594good luck anon, also sick 'gross
Still no shiny hawlucha.........

>>58476626>>58476656Couldn't catch :(
>>58476669Stop pretending to be me.
I can't seem to progress in the story because I keep getting sidetracked with shiny hunting
>>58476677I'm still at the skipping rank fight because days ago I decided to just quickly grab a shiny ralts first.
>Chespin is a rare spawnThis one is going to suck.
Anyone willing to help me evolve my Shiny Swirlix? If you need a trade evo done, it would help me a lot too.
>>58476263I hope you get yours anon, I'm trying to get the alpha to shine personally. I've got 2 non alpha ones so far; if you aren't set on having your own OT you are welcome to one of mine.
>>58476818I can help now but don't have any trade evos left.
>>58476845Then do you mind equipping the whipped dream of you have one on your bag? I'll give you one of the 2 I have when we trade back. You can let me borrow one of the trade evos just for completion sake.
Anyone wants a shiny steelix? Trading it for any shiny ghosts, preference for honedge and its evos.
>>58476818If you don't end up doing it with the other anon I have a shiny Kadabra I need evolved, I'd help you out.
>>58476920Will do. This post's number will be the ID.
Are there any other areas where you can go up and down really quick like area 2 or is it all benches other than that?
Thanks for trade, anon.
>>58476947not sure i didn't progress to far yet
Where does scraggy spawn? I need to get my GOAT
>>58476954No prob, thanks to you as well.
>>58476957Sewers
>>58476957your pal lives in da poopoo storage
>>58476957there's also a spot in an alley where you get like 3 or 4 scraggys with a potential alpha scrafty too
Any good spots for Spritzee? Swirlix has that small garden where 5 of them spawn, but Spritzee's got jackshit.
I'm trying to get a shiny female sableye. im just running around this circle and the 4 here respawn. is this the best option for them?
>>58477013got a male one?
>>58474228I'm so glad they've finally fixed my boy.
Do we have information on whether or not the alpha Steelix in area 3 can be hunted or not?
>>58477052stop begging faggot
>>58477052naw havent found a single one yet
>>58477061All pokemon that spawn or are recieved as a result of requests are shiny locked.
>>58477061You can, but better save beforehand or you'll fuck up and KO it like I did...
>>58477063I was going to offer my female for his male retard, consider an heroing
>>58477075No you weren't.
>>58477079Did your mom drop you as a baby?
>>58477075i appreciate the attempted offer but I'd rather get my shinys by myself at full odds. If I get a shiny male tho and someone wants one I don't mind coughing him up
>>58477086>threadbeg for the last hour>posture when called out
>>58477092I literally just joined schizo
>set turbo before bed>wake up to shiny alpha mawile>it's maleWe go again.
>>58477128>hack>get pwneddeserved
>>58474273It reminds me of the competitive players. The process is easier than ever, but they still find something stupid to complain about.Competitive players>Yeah I can easily max EVs/IVs with items, but I can't lower my ATK IV to 0 :(Shiny hunters>Yeah I can get a shiny easier and quicker than ever, but it's not the right gender (specifically for a species where pokemon gender doesn't matter) :(
>>58474420congrats anon :D
>>58477075Did you also find your shiny sableye in wild zone 9? Did you use a specific method?
>>58475149Same. no UK distribution was BULLSHIT
>>58477238Just gen it, how is it different from it being genned officially
>>58477238Wonder where they would have done the distribution anyway. GAME is a glorified merch store, maybe they'd do it at Smyth's but I doubt it since ZA is out now.
>>58477191>Yeah I can easily max EVs/IVs with items, but I can't lower my ATK IV to 0 :(To be completely fair, it's so annoying that you can't just do that when having 0 atk and/or 0 spd matters and for mons that one only too. Getting a 0 atk 0 spd blood moon is ridiculously unlikely for example. On the shiny thing yeah idk some people will never be happy
>>58477258Used to work at Smyth's, chill job despite it being retail. I liked when they did TCG promos :)
>>58477266they need to add rusted caps that lower ivs
>>58477069So yes confirmed it can be shiny?
>>58477302its a static ecounter
Look at this cutie
>>58477060Watch him go back to being indistinguishable from a non-shiny next game.
>>58477341I thought it was a sleeping Reshiram from the thumbnail
>set turbo before bed>wake up to tons of shiny noises>everything but absolat least male shiny eevee i guess
>>58477418One probably spawned and was overwritten
>>58477309so no?
>>58477430stop spreading misinfo
>>58477474Yes you can. They're being an aggravating cunt and not giving you a direct response. >>58477480A maximum of 10 shinies can be loaded on the map. When the 11th spawns it overwrites the first. Depending on if you have the charm, you can get upwards of 10 per hour. Nothing I said was incorrect.
>>58477492source?
>>58477502You don't get to claim that I'm spreading misinfo then beg for a source.
>>58477504>pigs fly>source?>You don't get to claim that I'm spreading misinfo then beg for a source.lul
>>58477510>pigs fly>YOU'RE A LIAR>no, this is the accurate information >please sir can I have the source i was baiting you to prove me wrong>You don't get to claim that I'm spreading misinfo then beg for a source.ftfy
>>58477518liar liar pants on fire
>>58477530Please keep running your switch overnight, it's very funny.
well it's not a ralts but cool
>>58477530it's plants for hire
>>58474618cope and seethe>t. been hunting since gen 3
>>58475114your thumb
>>58477504>>58477518nta but having a source or at least documented observations are never a bad thing to have
>>58477645The same person whose been documenting shiny hunting for years has it documented. That retard begging without knowing where it came from isn't my problem.
>>58476650you and me both
Is the guaranteed mareep always male?
>>58477704i don't know
>>58477266That's exactly the point I'm making. They've continuously made efforts to cater to compfags, but it's never enough (and hell, the majority of them say cheating is ethical because of it).>Make training/resetting easier"Yeah but IVs are still a bitch">Add bottle caps"Yeah but we still have to worry about natures">Add mints"Yeah but what about 0IV ATK/SPD?"And I highly doubt they'll stop whining if they get a rusty bottle cap. Then they'll complain that they need to grind for items at which point we have people complaining about having to play the game. Heck I've already seen people complaining about having to play other games to get the pokemon in them.It's the biggest reason I hope champions does well, just so I don't have to hear about professional cockfighters complaining about this stuff in future games.
>>58477716FUCK I regret not using a heal ball and now I have a cringe male mareep in a pokeball I'm going to fucking KILL MYSELF I'M SO demented and Crazy
>>58477718There's some type of irony in dexitfags criticizing VGC players for their criticism of Gamefreak not including every pokemon in each new game.
>>58477704Mine is female
>>58477718I don't think it's wrong for people to want competitive teambuilding to be more accessible for players not using 3rd party tools. Shiny convenience is nice but it's purely for fun and aesthetics at the end of the day, if GF/TCPI wants the game the competitive scene to thrive certain barriers of entry need to be lower.
>>58477733its just a game
>>58476263Where are you spawning in to hunt larvitards? Also, is there a good location to hunt Gible, Aron/Lairon, Charmander, and beldum? Or do I have to just run around like a chicken with its head cut off/sit on a bench repeatedly?
>>58477704No.
>>58477770>GibleZone 8 but its a rare spawn>AronEasy at zone 14 when like 4-5 spawn every time>Charmanderrare spawn at zone 20>BeldumLysandre labs
>>58477788Yeah I already got gible on accident while hunting an alpha. As an aside, can you reroll an already shiny Pokémon to be alpha?
>find 4 random shinies over the course of the story>no luck now that I want to search for them on purposeThis is why I'm not a shiny hunter, I only come here to observe or offer any spares I might luck into.I have a lot of respect for you bastards for managing to stay sane during your hunts.
>>58477835Can't.
>>58474606Thats not a Ralts...
>>58477850This game's probably one of the most relaxing to shiny hunt in, due to the game storing your shinys once they spawn.You can just mindlessly repeat the condition to reload a Pokemon while doing something else, then check every now and then to see if anything's spawned.
>want shiny whirlipede>get this stupid bird instead4700 encounters and counting...
>>58477856Scheiße. Back to hunting Froakie, then. What are the odds for alphas?
>>58477764thanks I lost myself a bit there
>>58477905According to Serebii, 5%
>>58477914Fuck. So odds for shiny alphas are 0.001 with charm x 5%, which is what, 0.00005%? That's pretty bleak for alpha froakie then. Wish there was an alpha charm.
>>58477965Seems like a possible DLC yield alongside renewable XL candies, it's not like there's any other relevant rewards they could give you for completing the inevitable DLC research tasks since the Canari plushies already serve the relevant roles of being charms for other mechanics.
>>58478035That'd be nice. Only other thing I could think of would be some kind of NPC/training that lets you make your Pokémon into Alphas. I imagine they'll also make apriballs renewable in the DLC too
Day 4 of shiny hunting Carvanah. So far I’ve caught 2 shiny pidgey and 2 shiny slowpoke. Anyone else doing the same hunt? I can spam fly to the wild zone, or I can sit at a bench in the back near the Alpha Sharpedo. Does anyone have any suggestions as to which is better? From the entrance to WZ10 there is 3 carvanah in the water, and in the back by the bench there’s 2 plus the sharpedo. From the bench the carvanah at the entrance are 53m away, and from the entrance the 2 carvan with sharpedo are like 80m out. Can either the fly technique or bench reroll both sets of carvanah? Does this post even make sense? I’m losing my mind
>>58478109Update, I caught 2 more shiny pidgey. I have gotten 5 shinys total from this same spot, but not the one I want
4 Falinks and 2 Froakies later. Might try for a Drampa
>>58478109>I can spam fly to the wild zoneI'm not sure the fish spawn unless you actually enter the wild zone
>>58478438Fuck me. I had a suspicion this was the case. All I want is a big gay shark, is that too much to ask for??
>>58478416Might continue that area for him too + Ampharos
>>58478416do falinks count as 5 shinies since they are made of 5 falink?
4 days and still no ralts but at least i got a magikarp.
>>58478551ill give you one fot the karp
I'm losing faith in this Tyrunt hunt
Im doing Area 20 now for the Tower Alpha spawns. Got Alpha Simipour and sone surrounding mons.>What a nice bench!>*Simpsons Jingle*
Never kill yourself.
>>58478665you just know
anyone know a good way to hunt fennekin in plza? ive been fast travelling to this cafe then running to zone 18 to see if i hear a chime, im not sure if it spawn until you climb to the roof though even
Just got my first shiny trying to get a spinarak, anyone want to trade?
>>58478716Yeah, I got two shinies I'm willing to trade for that, you can pick, my post is the code
>>58478416Which spot did you use to load in, zone 16 or zone 5? How long did it take total you think?
>>58478716Fuck you scammer, its not hard to differentiate between green and purple
Mission accomplished
>>58478723Searching 58478723 but i was mainly looking for spinarak but who knows maybe i like your 2
>>58478740I used Zone 16, I didn't want to find any shinies besides the ones I was going for, and the only ones that spawn from 16 are the 4 Falinks and Froakie. I'm on switch 1 so it's kind of hard to say how long it took, but I got my shiny charm 36 hours ago and I took some breaks here and there like doing Zone 20 alphas for fun. I think I got pretty lucky to get it within 7 phases
>>58478767I didnt even trade with you,prob another anon
>>58478768cute tomboy
>>58478790 All the character customization options for male are either: 14 year old boy, korean popstar, or lesbian.
>>58478783Gotcha, thanks. How'd you get the trainer battle challenge done btw? I'm assuming you powered through the za royale to get mega floette 15x, but my runs of it so far are only ~10-12 trainers.
>>58478809im using a king kong 3
>>58478809I was getting like 35-40 fights in each night after getting used to it. My mons were level 100 by the time I had gotten to 20 reward battles, so it went by pretty quick. Just running from one trainer to the next and oneshotting them with my Excadrill. After clearing out the ground level of one battle zone I moved to the next, the rooftops take too much time.
For anyone wanting to fill their pkdex quicker, I found that offering shit shinies people will automatically give you stuff you are missing, pretty neat
>>58478835how does goldengo compare? can I one shot and run quickly too?
>>58478830What's a king kong 3>>58478835Gotcha. My plan was to use the restaurants since you can get more fights back to back, but if you're just running without sneaking then that explains why you're getting so many more trainers than I am.>>58478880Where are you trading with people? /wfg/?
>>58478906I sneak hits in when I can but if theyre in an annoying spot I'll just let them start the fight. A Dragonite with Extremespeed is probably really good for this, but I didn't realize that until later.
I GOT IT!!!200 ENCOUNTERS LATER I GOT IT!!IT WASN'T THE DAMN WHIRLIPEDE BUT I'LL TAKE THISAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA4899 encounters in total for this stupid little bug
>>58478926Hm. I DID just catch an alpha earlier...
i discovered my mayflash switch controller adapter has turbo
>>58478958i have many questions
>>58478958I would say based but also ask why
>>58478976well i was bench resetting then read people were buying turbo controllers so looked it up. only want a shiny fennekin i was just gonna move my shiny braixen over from x/y but pkhex still hasnt updated. use the adapter already because dualshock 3 is my favourite lol
>>58478989that wasn't my question but okay
>>58478989are you pretending?
>>58478940congratz anon
>>58478996to the crt? i use it for most games its just comfy, doesnt look at bad as the phone video because its interlaced you only see half the lines in the video which gives the big scanline you dont really see them irl>>58479004what
>>58478958unc setup
>>58478958>>58478989i think the question is why are you playing on an old jvc? do you prefer the swiping gradient on the screen (or maybe thats just an effect from recording it on a certain camera)? Nostalgia enjoyment? Or is it just your only option right now?
How do yall deal with instant despawning birds
Has anyone tried hunting Tynamo?
>>58479020>not shiny hunting>hear shiny noise while walking around>hear bird flapping noiseand its gone
Ritual complaining about lack of Honedge so they come home
>>58479078i got a spare
>>58479019oh i jsut like it use it for most stuff installed a capture card in my 3ds for 3ds/ds games also. looks better in person its card to capture on camera and you dont see the line unless you put your face near it
>>58479102based and cool but whats that sticker in the top right
>>58479080I appreciate it but I'd rather get one myselfI don't have anything to spare anyway
>>58479113https://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=10619783 jsut a random pic i printed when testing my label maker lol
Just found the third member of my team after five days, and it was the Alpha of the group that shone. Really happy about the fact that I can move on with the story.
>>58479145i wish i knew french
This is my Shiny Hunt method for the Monkeys because 1) I didn't want to get the glide rotom thing yet because I want my shiny NOW and 2) I like using my own method instead of the stupid wild zone 4 alpha monkeys that everyone else is using. isnt this faster anyway?
>>58479168Dunno, but I'm literally about to run down there myself to try and bullshit me a shinky munkee too.What's the other bullshit method you mentioned? May look into it after getting charm and greninjite.
