How to properly hunt for shiny Noisebat? Teleporting doesn't seem like the way.
I've hit a dry spell again unfortunately. I should probably take some time and do more battles for money and raising some of the evos I need to evolve I have repeats of.
>>58548049I got a bunch of those while hunting for salamence
>>58548049I'm guess you mean the lab which idk since havent hunted there yet but you get a ton just benching at 18
Been doing 18 bench for eevee and fennekin. Only got a single male eevee.About how often should I be checking? Every 2 hours?>>58548049Bench it
>>58548060>>58548100Where is the bench at 18 at? Am i fucking blind
>>58548106Just outside the exit from the noibat area
>>58548106roof climb up near the lopunny
Best place to catch psychics for Mable research?
I just want my fox
>>58548134jump between espurr and meditite
>>58548143I'll trade you something for that alpha noisebat, unless you simply feel like letting it go.
>>58548143then reset morewhat I did to avoid getting dupes was to just leave them there and catch them I after I got my target
>>58548100is benching the best way for eevee and noibat in 18?
>>58548100>About how often should I be checking?I checked every 50-100 bench resets
>>58548162Yes, use bench that is closest to the eevee's spawn of the two
>>58548152What you got? I have 3 Shinies from this evo line plus one in Scarlet so I’m ok with trading the Alpha>>58548156I have been man. I’ve gotten dupes from everything else in the area
>wanna see if I can increase fennekin spawn>dumb phox won't be alpha
>>58548177you can actually use any benchI used the farthest one and got a shiny eevee anyway
>>58548177bench shouldn't matter I got both eevee and gastly from the one closer to the zone
>>58548189>>58548191Oh, wasn't sure, thanks
>>58548184>I’ve gotten dupes from everything else in the areathat's part of the struggle, brolook >>58548054I got all these shinies before my target which was the alpha salamence
>>58548184I have a trevanant, and I have a falinks.
Anyone interested in trading for a shiny alpha malamar? I don't plan on using it.
Man…>>58548203You’re right just being a little impatient. Seeing you get your target and Fennekin gives me a bit of hope.
>>58548220try offering on reddit
>>58548187This shit is so funnyI don’t know of it’ll work, though. Part of the issue is you need multiple spawns to utilize. I don’t know if Fennekin has that. It’s why you can’t stack more than 6 alpha spawns
>>58548225Ah, they're either common or shit then. Got it
>>58548177I hate bench method I like active shiny hunting can I do that here instead?
>>58548214Willing to trade for Trev.
>>58548226>Part of the issue is you need multiple spawns to utilize.What's the deal with that? I have one now that I'm leading to the gate down past salamence. If you need more than one spawn though maybe something can be done with the Altaria/Noivern. knocked it out though so I'll just try what I was thinking.
>>58548250Alrighty. Can you please rename the Noisebat into "Ohren"?Use this post ID for the room.
>>58548267Sure thing brother.
>>58548251So my uneducated understanding is a lot of spawns have multiple areas where they can spawn, like how the Skarmory in 17 isn’t always spawning in the same part of its flight path when you first see it but it still has some limit that says ‘Only use one of these spawns at a time.’ You’re tricking the game into upping the number of those spawns that can be used at the same time. Also Fennekin might have an issue where you need a 60 meter line of sight to the gate you drag it to, and roofs are going to make that hard. If you lose sight of it, it’ll despawn before you can set it up to spawn a second.
>>58548272Thanks anon. good luck with Finniken.
>Shiny Gardevoir>It's a maleI am conflicted
>>58548286Thank you for the good luck and Trev. Attached a Nugget on Ohren for you as well
>>58548296Thanks! sorry I didn't send anything else your way.
>>58548279okay I see what you're saying now with the spawns. I think getting it to a gate is doable at least. Hard part is getting it on the ground without dropping aggro. It is doable on the scaffolding around lopunny got it to drop down once.
>>58548289hawt!
>>58548312Cool stuff. I bet an alpha Froakie would be a lot easier to do it with since at least that area is pretty flat.
>>58548308No worries. I’ve been doing it for trades as a tradition for awhile just to give a lil extra. Hope you and Ohren have fun!
How old are the people in these threads?
>>5854832342
>>58548323About tree fiddy
>>58548327No seriously
Shiny hunting the Scuttlebug party like Pannen intended
>>58548323What's it to ya
>>5854832333
Best place to farm shiny alpha larvitar?
>>58548367The bench south of 13
>>58548386Based thank you
Well I moved Fennekin all the way down to the furthest gate. No extra spawn showed up. I can retry a few more times to see if it happens to work but probably doesn’t. Still funny how far you can move Pokémon
>macro switch at zone 20 entry bench overnight>only shiny is the Fletchling outsideimpressive
So the only thing I’m curious about with the 20 glitch is if I have 6 spawns, one shiny that I don’t want, if I go to 3, get 10 new shinies quickly, will that make it so I have 5 or still have 6 spawns in 20?
>>58548405Too bad. That one would have been nice although a lot of effort
>>58548405Thanks for testing it
The new method covered in this video doesn't work. I have followed it EXACTLY.https://youtu.be/OuX9lfo_bKA
>>58548447Working for me. I followed the steps in the last thread.
>>58548460I can't keep the Pokémon aggro after the bridge with the stream. The second I go past there, even if the Pokémon is right behind me, it just loses interest and turns back.
>>58548447I got it too work just fine. If it doesn't work first time just keep reloading the save and getting the pokemon as close to gate as possible. it's hard to fully mess up the set up and not recover it honestly.>>58548423>>58548430I suppose it rules out froakie for sure since it make sense it needs multiple spawn locations. honestly I wasn't sure with fennekin because sometimes it's facing different directions. Gonna try Chespin now since the holes do move around and I'm curious if you can increase them.
>>58548467Save and restart. When you get back in the game, its home will have moved to its last position. Then you can kite it further.
>>58548478Really? Okay.
>>58548478What do I do if one Pokémon won't follow me no matter what?
Fug what ball for shiny delphox?
this is getting ridiculous kekhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQZWp8U5M8k
>>58548509Heavy or Repeat
>>58548477That makes sense. Chespin should work but you’d still have the low chance of Chespin. You might need to drag it to the upper gate so it’s further away from its spawn.
>>58548520He's not female so I went for the repeat. Thanks
>>58548508Just get a different one? Only target melee attackers since they get closer more often.
>>58548478I managed to get the two Alphas (Malamar and Flareon) to follow me to the gate and I did everything including the runback but there's nothing in the middle
>>58548417kek
>>58548546Are you following these steps? Try doing only one at a time
>>58548567>>58548546These steps, sorry >>58546419
>>58548574I've been trying that for the past hour and it won't work
>>58548605Unfortunate, I don’t know what else to tell you besides starting over and trying it from zero again
And 5 holes! This may be the limit. I think the one in the back only has one spawn location but maybe the other two can be increased further. I’ll post set up separately since I do t want to type it on my phone.
Does anyone know if teleporting to Sushi High Roller spawns the Espurrs in wild zone 3, or do you need to run south a bit after each teleport.
>>58548632Let's go, good job!
>>58548632Set up:>set respawn to Vert Pokemon Center>go up to the benches near pyroar and kill time until morning>knock out pyroar and skarm>fast travel back to 17 and get all Diggersby (Chespin is more annoying)>lead them up the stairs once they get to the top run over to the east gate going out towards vert sector 6 and save>reload lead the diggersby to the gate once they're all there exit the gate and save>place marker walk away from the gate until it hits 60 save and reload (The diggersby fade out but that's fine)>Return to gate and lead the diggersby back to the stairs and make sure that new holes are there at the same time then save and reload>aggro all the diggersby and let them knock you out>wake up at pokecenter and retrun to 17 to find the increased spawns
Also yeah think there is a good chance you could increase it to 7 spawns, might be kinda annoying though with Chespins almost always spawning now
>>58548605Austin John Plays has a video on how to do it. I managed to get 5 Alphas to spawn under the tower, so im good with that. I dont get my turbo controller until Monday, so I have to wait to shiny hunt there.
>>58548694Running back and forth to spawn/despawn one set of 3 at a time is actually faster than bench (which also only does 3) but that's not afk lol
Wait holy shit this is actually so much more broken than I was expecting! As far as I can tell the game will ALWAYS spawn both a Diggersby and a Chespin in the holes on the left and right sides. I have reset multiple times and it's consistently both a Chespin and Diggersby on both sides.
>>58548719Have you tried doing this with gible?
>>58548721No but It be worth trying. I only worry zone 8 might not be big enough to actually make it work
>>58548719holy based
>>58548694Yeah the video is what I'm following. Idk why but it's not working for me. I got a Malamar and Flareon to the entrance but the runback ain't spawning shit.
>>58548753Nvm by the time this posted I got a Falinks and Jolteon.What's the best move from here?
>>58548775do what you already did again?
I GOT A TURBO CONTROLLY FOR $17 AND IT WORKS LET'S GOOOOO INFINITE SHINIES
>>58548775Drop a pin at the gate. Save and restart. When you load in, run 60 meters down the street making sure you can still see the alpha. Save and restart. Run back, go inside where you can see the spawns under the tower. Save and restart. Then you can fast travel or bench to reset the area so you have an extra alpha.
>>58548788Ok. Do they have to be right next to the gate?
Something good about actively hunting vs afk with a bench: If you save before respawning/despawning via distance, instead of needing to set up the glitch again after a shiny you don't want shows up, you can just reset since you will not have saved with that new shiny. With a bench, the autosave forces you to KO or catch the shiny and reset up the glitch to hunt that slot again.
>>58548827yes. you can just keep going in an out and save/resetting to get them on top of the gate since they don't lose aggro immediately once you're outside
>>58548775Cute feet
>>58548788>>58548797>>58548847Ok. Did it a few times. For whatever reason, nothing new is spawning under the tower and I made sure to go 60 meters down the street (next to the Roserade)>>58548854Yeah sadly there's no open-toed shoes so I can't show off toes.
SETPLEASE RESPONDI HAVE YOUR GENGAR
>>58548866No barefeet either...
>>58548866dunno what to tell you. i did it so well i dragged one of the spawns OUTSIDE of the wild zone
I wonder if the game could handle it if you just keep increasing spawns through out the world. I checked to make sure and the 6 alphas are still there after spawning the additional holes. I guess I should go try to see if the holes in 8 can be increased. The other spots I was thinking of that should work are Eevee in 19 and Alpha Lopunny. I feel like a lot of the alphas are pretty static so Lupunny is the only one that's come to mind that I know and it has 4 spots so might be able to get an extra 3 in at once. If anons have other spawns that could be good post them. Also I'm wondering if it can work in the city. I know there are at least some hawluchas that move around when they spawn.
>>58548875That's probably never gonna happen. Sandals and shit are probably a staple for the most part but barefeet make little sense. Maybe in Gen 10 but I doubt it >>58548883Outside the wild zone? HOW?
>>58548884The thing I'd like to try at some point is if I can keep the 6 alphas and add extra starter spawns in 20. So you'd have a solid chance at getting whatever starters while ou hunt the alphas.
>shiny hunt thread>it's all full of glitch manipulators instead
>>58548906Holy based
>>58548789Thanks for linking the Turbo controller so we can all get a 17 dollar controller for infinite shinies. Truly based, anon.
>>58548897>Outside the wild zone? HOW?Fuck if I know. I was running in and out to get the final mon near the gate and spamming save/resets.One of the times I load in a Drampa immediately aggros me. I go on thinking nothing of it but after I'm done with the mons in the zone and leave to drop a last save I notice that the Drampa was stuck outside. Killed myself after that and now I have 6 spawns under the tower.If I were to guess it's because Drampa is so big and the spawn location was so close to the gate it decided to nudge it out instead of keeping it in when I reloaded.
>>58548913https://www.amazon.com/dp/B097XLJX89buy at your own risk. i've only beeing using it for a half hour.
>>58548919Thanks anon. I'll try my luck
>>58548906all it does is increase the spawn number not the actual and it's fully doable ingame. As long as it's not using an external device or creating an illegal pokemon like duplication It's fair game imo. turbo controllers are closer to cheating than this.
>>58548916Anyway, I managed to add a Hawlucha. Now I've got 5 mons near the gate, can I move on with 5? It's almost nigh ingame.>>58548919What's the risk?
>>58548947cheap controller. Could break quickly or arrived damaged.
>>58548906>duped my alphas>controller macro that makes my character constantly run back and forth to reroll themHuntin's hard work
>>58548957Especially seeing as it's from Amazon. They just chuck it in a box and ship it. You'd be lucky to get it with a few packing peanuts or an airbag.
My goal is to get all green and purple mons. First goals are shiny audino and dragalge. Will eventually be followed by things like pumpkaboo and scolipede and plenty of others I have found. The only non shiny green and purple mons I could find were Noivern and Goodra.
>>58548947Why can't you just do it with one at a time?
>>58548982Audino is being a bitch and won't show up in zone 7 for me.
>>58548947>can I move on with 5? It's almost nigh ingame.dunno, try and see. dunno if night messes anything up either.
>>58548986I did a few times. I'm stuck with only 5 spawned and the 6th mon refuses to spawn.
>>58548969Yea I've had it happen to me before buying a cheap gcn controller. At the very least you can just remap the buttons on the switch so if one is busted it'll probably still work for afk
>>58548994You need to pull from the side that's missing the spawn.
Anyone else fap while hunting and keep yourself on the edge until you find it and then have the best cum ever?
>>58549004this guy >>58548775
>>58549011As that user, I don't fap while playing games. Too distracting. Plus it's NNN.
wait isn't there usually 5 holes in zone 8? After I did the spawn increase glitch on the holes in 17 I went to 8 and I keep getting 10 or maybe 11 it's hard to count them
>>58548511I skimmed it but it looks like they have to start new games though?
>>58548919Mine should be coming in tomorrow. Can you turbo the start button?
>>58549028What's the spawn increase glitch? Are you doing the same thing people are doing in area 20?
>>58548982do clefari too
I don’t even know how to really show this but here you can see 3 Gible with 4 Drilbur. I think there are ten holes but Pokémon are being despawn and new holes are appearing while trying to count them. Anyway not normal at all. I didn’t do anything here just some how the holes in 8 and 17 are connected and increasing one increased the other.
Is there a reason why the Shiny Charm doesn't work on Fossils?
>>58549072hahahaha this game is so good
>>58549055probably but it's relatively simple and not programmable with pauses and a series of inputs so i doubt it'd be useful for fly resetting
>>58549061yes >>58548632and I explained what I did underneath
>>58549075It's a coding error. Hopefully the devs fix it in a later patch.
for the record unlike Chespin it doesn't guarantee Gible spawns
>>58549028just counted 6 holes in the middle of zone 8. that does not include the ones in the outside ring where the krokorok spawn
I just want froakie bro
I got the spawns to relead under the tower, though for some reason only 4 reloaded.
>>58549112kek
What's a good, cheap turbo controller that ships to Australia that I can bench method with?
>>58549110okay maybe I'm going crazy, but it seems way higher than I remember. I've had 7 in the middle
>>58549083Imma try that to get shiny gible
>>58548884Try increasing the number of Pyroar that spawn
>>58549168Pyroar death zone.
>>58549173Pyroar feels so fucking forced this gen. Ugliest motherfucking pokemon, I'd rather use bibarel.
I'm just trying to do the glitch as normal in zone 8. The first I went in I was seeing holes suddenly pop into existence and it really seemed like there was way more than usually but idk it's hard to tell. It's hard to attract everything to the gate but I have three Drilbur there rn.
>>58549200Honestly, it was worse in the terrarium
I'm hunting litwick right now. guessing the best option is still just running and back and forth? You an adjust the spawns but it doesn't spawn more unfortunately.
>>58549219just back and forth, yeah
>>58549218Ehhh there's two wild zones in this game that are specifically dedicated to the line for no reason. Litleo looks like they made a pokemon based on fetal alcohol syndrome.
>>58549200Reuse of Pokemon since dexcuts has been so insufferable. There's no reason for some of the fillermons to get used for the nth time over anotehr that hasn't featured much.
>>58549203I don't think it's possible for them to get far enough away from where they usually spawn to work which is what I suspected. Every time I go back there is only two holes in the center. The spawns seemed much higher than normal at first, but I'm not really sure how many there are even supposed to be. Maybe I just got some lucky high number of spawns. It seems normal now so i don't know what to make of it
>>58549200name one dual type normal pokemon that isn't flying that isn't ugly. you can't.
>>58549299Noibat, the cutest dragon
>>58549299JigglypuffIndeedeeMeloettaMega Lopunny
>>58549307What's Noibat's typing bro?
>>58549299
>>58549299Drampa!
>>58549319
>>58549299Arboliva isn't ugly
Finna crash out
>>58549112>>58549354same, i got like 20 shinies all consisting of NOT being a froakie and im tiredatp i just leave them be so that the shiny chance goes more to the frog than them, currently have like 2 wild bunnelbys, 1 shiny alpha ampharos, 1 shiny flaffy and 1 shiny medicham be shiny and i have NOT caught them, i want shiny froakie badly
>>58549340it is. it's fat and worse than its prevo.
>>58549388Yeah I’m not going to catch it
okay, I don't know if this teleport method for beldum is working...I haven't got a single shiny in like 1000~ teleports
>>58549476Did you spawn it in first? Have you got the charm?
>>58549490>Did you spawn it in first?yes I go to the room, fly back and hear their cries through the wall>Have you got the charm?no, I'm a full odds autist
>>58549499you're not even at odds don't complain.
>>58549510maybe bench resets just spoiled meI got so many shinies even without the charm...
>>58549388>>58549411Thats not how probability works.It rolls per pokemon. If you're encountering 2 pokemon at full odds, your odds are 2/8000, you multiply both sides of the equation. You'll get shinies more often the more pokemon you're seeing of course, but knocking stuff out or leaving a shiny on the field isn't going to make your target show up any faster. You're just gonna have less phases with much more time in between them. Just get the consolation shinies my guy.
>>58549519Full odds since gen 6 is 1/4096.
ok thats good to know, but its still cool to have tons of shinies at the same time
How in the name of fuck do you guys stand Shiny Hunting in this gameLike, seriously It's so mind numbingly tedious, monotonous and stupidly boring that I can't see how anyone could willingly sit through this shit for more than an hour and not want to kill themselves All you do is fucking pressing the A button a billion times to reset spawnsThere is absolutely nothing engaging or fun about it, at that point using a bot to trade yourself the shinies you want feels more rewarding
>>58549515If you've had bench resets that were going under 1000, then you're due for a terrible 10k shiny.
>>58549532>all you do is press ANuh-uh I'm tilting the thumbstick bad and forth and occasionally pressing B when my sprint stops.
>>58549532the dopamine of hearing that sweet sweet shiny noise of the pokemon you desire the most
>>58549533I used to get a shiny like every 100-200 bench resets, I thinksometimes more than that
>>58549532My controller does everything for me. I only need to check on it every 30-60 minutes
>>58549526You misunderstand the point I was making.One pokemon spawning is 1/4000.Two pokemon spawning is 2/8000.And so on.The point is that no matter how many pokemon you do or don't clear from the board, you odds for your target aren't changing, unless you're able to clear spawns to make room for more encounters of your target.
>>58549532How in the name of fuck do you guys stand Shiny Hunting in this gameLike, seriouslyIt's so mind numbingly tedious, monotonous and stupidly boring that I can't see how anyone could willingly sit through this shit for more than an hour and not want to kill themselvesAll you do is fucking pressing the D-pad a billion times to walk through grassThere is absolutely nothing engaging or fun about it, at that point using a bot to trade yourself the shinies you want feels more rewardingGood bait though!
>one of the right side holes is shiny>50/50 for Chespinoh shit
>>58549555fat bastard curse
>>58549555BIG BIG CHUNGUS BIG CHUNGUS BIG CHUNGUS
>>58549561Nope! Shiny Chespin first phase.
Gonna be honest, I like Shiny Chestnaught yeah but I think normal Mega Chestnaught looks better, the red cape with the white and green color palette and the gold crown. Idk it just doesn't hit the same with the shiny color palette fr fr.
>>58549570eat shit
>>58549451>Just got a third oneOml
>>58548987Got my shiny audino from fast traveling to zone 20.
>>58549388>>58549519update, MANAGED to find and catch shiny Froakie, now its a greninja since i fed the fat fuck all my candiesi got all of these extra shinies i dont want (i have way more but these are just clones of shinies i already got before) so i might trade these away for stuff
>>58549550For me I just want to prevent more from appearing lol
>>58549631If it's a morale thing then yeah, I can understand that.Still say you might as well get the phase freebies.
>>58549532I did shiny hunting for first time in oras. It is boring but seeing the number go up gives hope that it'll appear soon.
bros are all the benchable eevees just singular spawns, not even 2 at a time? i need a alpha shiny eevee or I’ll die in real life
>>58549815>i need a alpha shiny eeveewell, those eevees can't be alpha, bro
>>58549815you can only get Alpha eevee from zone 19
>>58549837>>58549835what the fuck the roof eevees cant be alpha? Why the hell not? Any other alpha locked wild mons ?
Is there a way to change a shiny pokemon’s iv and gender? Or are they locked once they spawned in? Got a shiny malamar but I don’t want a female mal.
>>58549857>pokemon’s ivyes, with bottlecaps>gendernoonce the shiny spawned in, everything is locked
>>58549852They can be. I found one before.
>>58549852yes a lot are zero while others are 20%. Usually if they're found in a wild zone they can't be alpha. The ones that can be alphas that aren't guaranteed ones are Goomy, Sligoo, Larvitar, Dratini, Dragonair, Absol, Hawlucha, Riolu and Ralts
Been doing the WZ20 manip thing. No shinies after 8 day night cycles. I ran ip and down the whole time, three Pokémon rerolling each time. Approximately how many resets have taken place? Would that put me above odds?
>>58549882How many resets are you getting every day? How long is it taking you per run? I've averaged between 8-15 seconds per cycle for some of my run resets which would be 4 per minute which would mean doing it for just under 10 hours to be at odds without charm.
>>58549882I've been going for about an hour and a half, maybe a bit longer.
ok dies this bench reset at least half of zone 19 or is fast travel spam just the only way to go yeah pin is obviously in range but z axis makes distance wonky
>>58549892I would say I get about 4 per minute. I have the charm.
>>585499004-5 hours give or take to be at odds.
>>58549899eevee is near the front so I'd just fast travel. When I was hunting for a alpha female I would just fast travel until I heard one since the alpha visibility range is higher and you can always hear/see it. Also you only need to worry if the Pokemon is above you Pokemon below you in range will always spawn
>>58549299H Zorua
Papa Jefe (blisey 2) got the glitch working for the starter spawns in 20
802/1000 I'm almost there bros
Miserable day of hunting for me, no new, only two repeat shiny. I'm giving myself a makeover and buying new clothes and will try again tomorrow.
>>58549882Benches don't reset all the center spawns bro. You're only resetting 3-4 of them. Fast travel and run to the center, it's faster.
>Four hours grinding shiny bun>Still nothing even with turbo
>>58550097just increase the spawns bro
>7x charmander/tepig, 6x alpha spawns
>>58550101what
Is fly resetting area 19 over and over the best way to get a furfrou? Or do I have to go in and run around each time? So far I only got shiny eevee and shiny audino just fly resetting and not entering.I want a shiny gentleman doggo
>>58550106So wait, are there unused spawns in the rocky areas that allow you to make more spawns?
>>58550121Yeah, watch Papa Jefe’s latest video
>>58550111Fly to, then run along outside towards the left, repeat is what I did
Shiny litwick gettoI thought the shiny had a red flame but it turns out its a nicer blue so it might've been there for a bit without me realizing. >>58550097just fast travel to woof cafe dude>>58550111Yeah definitely, I got mine by flying to the entrance to 11 and then running around before it spawned, before I even progressed through the game where more wild areas unlocked.
>>58550107
>>58549992I dont know who that person is or what you're talking about
>>58550183He's probably talking about using the 6 alpha glitch z20 spawns but retooled for starters.

I know Glaceon is meta but Sylveon is Sylveon
Oh nononono....
>>58546419>>58550181they just immediately run back upon reload. can't do it. :(
>>58550202Is that a picture of fucking text with no source!? HOLY SHIT AAAAA
Holy shit I’ve freed her! LMAO
>>58550206It's kinda finicky with Lopunny it seems sometimes it works and sometimes she just randomly runs back
>>58550209>How does Eevee evolve into Sylveon?Aime was a mistake.
>>58550214i've tried for 10 minutes but every time it just resets... must be a switch 1 issue.
>leaving the sewers after getting my shiny litwick>shiny klefki on the way out since the run back and forth resets its spawn too neat
>>58550202It'll probably drop when the Delphoxite update drops. I'd hold off on updating immediately until we find out if shiny hunting gets fucked or not.
>>58550209YA BE
>>58550209This is what Quasartico warned us about. The wild zones were for our own safety.
She just kept chasing me until I entered the center and it forced deaggro. Otherwise I think she could follow forever
>>58550258Surprise, mother fucker
There's no limit to how far down shinies can spawn, right?
>>58550258>tch... we'll meet again
>>58550258The spawn camper has became the spawn camped
does anyone know when the auto save kicks in? I'm gathering old ambers for a alpha Aerodactyl and would not like to grind all that money again.
>>58550258Your pelvis is safe. For now.
>>58550300It doesn't autosave when you get a fossil.
>>58550300Fossils don't trigger autosave like regular captures do, savescum away.
>>58550300Don’t fast travel
>>58549992So you lure a (let's say Totodile) to the gate, save and reload?
>>58549900>>58549925I got snot dragon. What ball should I use?
>lead pokemon to gate>wait for move like bounce/dig>exit>save and reload>pokemon is now free from it's enclosure
>>58550342Can't wait for Alpha Salamence to rape people
>>58550341Nest
>>58550341Either Dive or Net. Most people go for a pink or green ball to match the prevo shinies or the base shiny. Dive and Net fit both thematically and aesthetically.
>>58550361Shiny mega is dive blue, as well
To give an actual practical use for this you can change the caught location>Wild Zone 14 Lopunny
>>58550311>>58550316>>58550324Sounds easy enough then, it wont save after a certain amount of time has passed, just after certain actions?
>>58550364That's the point I think
>>58550368This bout to go hard in nuzlockes
so how permanent are those duped alpha spawns, anyway
>>58550390until you catch or knock them out
>>58550368>Sassy>somewhat vain>MALEHOLY FUCKING SEXO
>>58550368Oh yeah Pokemon Company are going to love this.
>>58550416You could do this in SV and no one carer btw
>>58550368pkhex legality checker is in shambles
>>58550416Champions probably won't even have caught locations.
>bench resetting for a shiny venipede>spot my glorious bug but here two shiny noises when I move from the bench>after scanning the area I realize the mystery shiny must be on the roof behind me>climb the latter and save>realize after 5 minutes of confusing searching that the abra right by the ladder that TP'd away was the second shinyThank god Abra is the only one that does this shit.
>>58550474>two shiny noisesthe game just does that. There is a shiny in the vicinity noise so it often plays twice. If you're on the ground the abra would not spawn on the roof so it was either there from earlier or happened to be shiny when you climbed up
>random ScolipedeHell, I'll take it
>>58550474you should probably check the fletchling behind the bench too
>>58550512NTA but fuck you, found a shiny Fletchling after you posted this.
>>58550522kekthat fucking bird is everywhere so you'll get a bunch of those
>>58550530I know, I have 10 of them.
lmao the mareep are actually shiny locked until you complete the quest. That anon wasn't crazy
>>58550538shiny locks were truly a mistake
>>58550538That they went out of their way to code that in gets me. They're not static encounters like the legendaries so it's not one sweeping generalization they needed to put in effort to do that. Extra malice.
>>58550530I have too many
>>58550586it was to avoid people catching an accidental shiny mareep that wasn't the one on the roof and it won't trigger the side mission
40 SHINIESONLY ONE SHINY LOPUNNY(MALE)I'M GOING INSANE
>>58550671Lopunny male is better
>>58550674for sex yes
>>58550674Bunny pussy is superior
>>58550682*Bussy
male Lopunny have fatter butts
What balls should I use for metagross and gallade?
>>58550707Heavy Ball MetagrossGreat Ball Gallade
>>58550709Do you have a spare heavy ball? I am all out
>>58550712You get them as Exhibition match rewards.
>>58550712pre order the dlc to get 3 of them and others.
>>58550712I do. Do you have a gold bottle cap?
>>58550715I know but I don’t want to grind infinite royale just for a chance of a heavy ball
>>58550728Sorry. Saving mine for my own shiny metagross.
>>58550707Luxury ball is the perfect fit for metagross, he's made of fucking silver and gold
>>58550744I assume that's in response to me asking about a gold bottle cap. I'll just keep grinding the royale myself. I had a bunch but I used them all on my teammates already.But I keep catching moreeeeee. That offer would go for anyone that wants an extra apriball. I've got at least one of each short of the sport ball.
the charmander spawner is a lot more finicky, I've gotten 5 but it requires more work and wow lucario is an asshole.
>>58550671I'll trade you for my female alpha shiny lopunny if you want to swap.
>>58550368Wild Zone 1 alphas will be hilarious.
>>58550788Already gave it away and it'd have to have been in a Love Ball.
>>58550796Aww too bad for me i guess.
>>58550790>Mable watching you out the window, SEETHING as you relocate an alpha Metagross to basically right outside her front doorThere's no Pokemon version of this image, please forgive me.
just got this shiny rotom on my platinumI started to hunt this for halloween and was doing it while I hunted on PLZA tooit only took 1512 SRs (well, actually it took 3962 SRs since I started this hunt like years ago but I stopped shiny hunting for a very long time)it feels so good to get a gen 4 shiny after years of not hunting anythingI missed the feeling
7 and a half hours and no Shiny bunny but I got 2 shiny slamanece on top of the other 2 i already got. what's this game's problem with giving me my bunny?
>>58550782adding to this: every time you rest at a bench, the number goes down, so you need to reset instead of resting
>>58550821That's cool.
>>58550821>3962 SRThis is probably why I never managed to find a shiny until Legends Arceus.
>>58550827Are you benching? My theory was that because of it's 4 separate spawn points it doesn't always spawn while benching because it's sometimes out of the radius. It might be better just save resetting hard to know for sure though.
>>58550846to be honest, 3000 resets is actually pretty "light" for a 1/8192 odds shinyI've had hunts going way over 10Kand you can go way over odds with 1/4096 odds too
>>58550851Benching yeah. It'd be strange if it didn't spawn because I've had Gastly and Eevee and even a Fletchling spawn shiny but not Lopunny.
should I do the shiny charm grind before I complete the game or should I wait for post game to get it? asking because I'm in litwick jail and I want out of it, this hunt sucks and my autism isn't powerful enough for it
>>58550886Take a break, do 100 battles, come back.
>>58550886I couldn't find a budew until I got a charm and litwick only took me a few hours earlier today. Get the charm.
>>58550886get the charm in post game. helped me get my targets and now I'm just running around getting random shinys.
I don't think Fennekin spawns can be duped. I've gotten it to the point where the alpha and the seemingly-duped slot are each visible, but it breaks on final reload. The spawn area might indeed just be one fixed point rather than range-based.Gonna try to see if a second Big Fenny occupying the second slot will make a difference (something something non-skittish) but all hope might be lost.
>>58550851Honestly all the possible spawn points SEEM to be within 50 meters too. Do you have a list of those spawn points?
>>58550886anon. I checked the sewers and I kid you not, I just found shiny litwick.
>>58550936Thanks for checking. When I look at it from the bench it always seems like it's in the same spot.
>>58550938I don't have a list but if you knock it out and see where it respawns it's basically the four corners of it's little square. In particular the lower right corner near the gate going out to Quasartico inc is 54 meters from the closest bench. Ultimately it's hard to test in game if it's impacting it or not so that's why I'm not sure.
Finally got my female eevee.
>>58550966nice
>retarded bf who knocked me off bench last time UNPLUGGED MY SWITCH IN HIS SLEEP>HOURS of benchsetting wiped out because switch diedam i being gaslit he’s doing this on purpose right he has to pay right
>>58551004>HOURS of benchsetting wiped outIt saves every time you use the bench, but bite his foreskin off for this
>>58550936Conclusion: either I fucked up somehow (mildly doubtful) or this is as close as it gets.
Was going to bed but just had a thought… since the game saves shinies until you catch them you could potentially move them around and leave them anywhere without the game removing them once spawns are reset… Maybe could make Zone 1 just a hell hole for 10 shiny alpha Lopunny. I probably get the charm tomorrow since I’m only 190 battles away once I get another shiny Lopunny I’ll have to try and see if it stays anywhere I bring it
>>58551012Godspeed you crazy bastard
>>58551008well it doesn’t for me- i reloaded the game and was at the last zone i tp’d to not the bench!!
>>58551004he certainly needs correctionI hope you're not getting abused, anon...
>>58551008It doesn't save every time you use bench. Can confirm it, I sometime reset the switch and lost all dupe shinies I haven't caught because I don't want them.Autosave only happen if you catch pokemon and use fast travel.
>>58551004Shiny hunting always causes marital disputes. It’s a commonly recorded occurrence.
>>58551048There's people who don't know the famous classic of the man and his Shiny Pidgey and that makes me sad.
>>58551004Break up with him
Can you just reset at the entrance to 8 to spawn a gible or you have to run in right
Does anybody know the best way to get an alpha shiny Skiddo or Gogoat ? I've been trying the afk method for days in area 3 and i've got at least three boxes of useless regular shinies. I need one to complete the last mission i've got about the Alpha Gogoat and i want it to be shiny...At this point i'm also accepting trades, i'm getting tired of that shit.
I hate hunting in 20 tbqh.
>>58551356then don't? all you gotta do is nothing lmao
>>58551364
Before the update drops on the 5th how do you prevent your switch to stop updating? I don’t mind not getting the delphox stone yet since I want to be sure that they will not patch up shiny farming
>>58550226Why would it get fucked you idiot
>>58551394Why would they patch it
Finally. I was tempted to spend all day getting the charm rather than chipping at it now and then
>>58551606How do you even catch this guy without him running off? Does dropping a hard save help here?
>>58551622I’ve manual saved just in case it doesn’t come back. I’m not sure how it works if the Pokémon run off.
>>58551606Dunno if you intended this but it's a beautiful screenshot
>>58551606I managed to catch it, I used a moon ball. The only one I had so I had to reset the game anyway if it failed
Real quick, is the shiny’s gender predetermined or can you fast travel a different one?
>>58551668Once a shiny spawns all of its data is fixed and there's no changing it
>>58551668It's locked
>do the exploit in Zone 20 for 5-6 Alphas>it works>but haven't seen any Shinies in the past 5 hoursWhat the fuck...
>>58551794RNG baybee
>>58551794I had my switch running for 10 hours and got nothing, I even have a CharmRNG is a bitch
My shalpha Larvitar hunt is overNow I can move on
>>58551880But is it a girl?
