Who huntin what?

>>58580749
Eevee here. How many people actually got the shiny charm? I still need 500 battles and idk how the hell people get 100 per night. I maxed 40 once and it's driving me nuts
>>
>>58580763
Espeed Dnite and fast traveling instead of waiting for people to respawn. Restaurants are probably faster though.
>>
>>58580749
I'm after Furfrou, never had a shiny one before and the bench is right by a Hawlucha too.
>>
>>58580749
Trying to get a shiny alpha Tyrunt right now. 4 shinies so far, none alpha.

Might be easier than ever to get shinies, but I still feel lucky to have gotten a female on the first try.
>>58580763
Don't grind the whole thing on the ZA royale. Go to Restaurant Le Nah. You can repeatedly challenge it with an overlevelled mon and one shot everything. Just do it in the background while you watch something, no need to expend brainpower.
>>
>>58580838
Gen 8 regis weren’t locked :-/
Arceus wasn’t :-/
>>
I see the game got a patch yesterday. Did it fix the alpha dupe thing?
>>
I want to move to a different area to get out of the labs
Which bench in zone 20 is best for the starters? I don't care about the 6 alpha method
>>
>>58580763
I got caught four alpha Salamence, threw some rocky helmets on them, and left the turbo controller pressing A for about two days at Restuarant La Na.

You should have 3/4 just incase because sometimes the Carnavah really fucks them up, or the Litleo gets a lucky burn. The game just keeps carrying on to the next Salamence though and it heals your team after starting a new session.
>>
>>58580867
sure but they keep shiny locking shinies in legend games
you can't even reset for a good nature for fucks sake...
>>
Your next shiny will be pidgey or fletchling ;)
>>
>>58580871
You can only bench for Bulbasaur and Chikorita or Squirtle and Totodile, Charmander and Tepig aren't close enough to any benches outside either.

That's good, I don't care for either of them

Do you have to do the alpha zone 20 exploit just once or what. Like do the caught pokemon get replaced

Bless you anon, I don't have a turbo, but this can at least get me some battles for free.

I finally decided on my last member of my shiny endgame team- Simisear. If only I could stop getting the other monkes @-@
>>
>>58580950
Are you sure because it went from 3 to 4. I don’t know what exactly I did
>>
>>58580905
Don’t be so sure.
It will be a noibat.
>>
>>58580763
this is the afk game. you afk for shinies. you afk for battles. just let it running overnight at le nah and you'll have the battles done. with macros you can even afk le wow

I wouldn't mind Noibat for my dex since I already got Noivern doing my Beldum line.

How many shinies can be in Lumiose at a time? It’s 5, right? I feel like I should go around Lumiose and check if I missed anything, clean the shiny cache if you will, but that would potentially create more of them.

I’m doing the bench close-ish to fennekin, do i need to run up to the wild zone barrier to make it spawn? it doesnt show up unless you walk over and look at it, but its within the 50 meters. also I’m retarded. Thanks

>>58581276
If it's within 50 it's still spawning even if you can't see it.

What's a good time interval to check on a pokemon when Benching?

Every half hour or hour or honestly whenever the fuck you want it won't run away.

What is the rarest alpha shiny spawn in z20? Perhaps gender of a specific pokemon can be a factor as well
>>
>>58582112
The question would be is alpha rare gender for one of the 87.5-12.5 center spawns rarer than female alpha Totodile/Squirtle.
>>
Only hits I got today was a Weedle and Shuppet. No Ralts. FML. Trying to get a few more Alphas to trade away to friends.

>>58581946
I finished capturing it. Took like forty minutes. Did you want to trade your love balls for my heavy balls?

Nvm there was a Shiny Electric Gerbil and a Shiny Abra on the roof.
Caught them. Hopefully the credits can now go into my Ralts hunting again cause I had this shit running since 5PM, it's now 12AM.

>>58582296
Every static encounter related to side missions and storyline in the game is shiny locked.

>>58582259
Also a shiny fletchling, lmao. I guess the game was rolling for everything EXCEPT the Ralts. Did a quick scouting around before starting it again after doing 64 battles through Infinite Royale.
>>
The Alpha Pikachu in zone 6 is exactly 23m above the fly reset point (the cafe).

Is this too high up to be fly reset hunted for a shiny? Going up and down the ladder results in the same exact Pikachu but flying in resets it when I climb up and check
>>
Just got a shiny charmander around 2 hours after I start hunting it.
>only missing starters are bulbasaur, froakie and tepig
Frogs are easy to spawn by spamming fast travel/bench so I should get these first. My hands are worn out from running around zone 20 already.


>>58582292
Don't give up, you will eventually get it. It took me four days even with shiny charm
>>
>>58582667
The vertical spawn distance is 10 meter.
So no, you can't spam fast travel since it won't save any shiny above 10 meter height.
Your best bet would be running forth and back on roof 70 meter away from alpha pikachu.
>>
>>58582693
Fuck. Would resetting area 3 be quicker?
>>
>>58582718
If you can deal with running to holovalor/ladder then open the map 100 times, sure.
>>
>>58581647
About three times higher than usual because you forced extra spawns.

Just speculation at this point but so you think the DLC will have some sort of increased shiny odds, similar to Dynamax Adventures? Since it's a time-limited roguelike and all

I hope its something like that. Higher levels = better shiny chance.

pokemon can randomly spawn with special marks in the ribbon section, and will gove them a special title when you send them out if you select them. think this feature started in swsh

>>58584705
In Sword and Shield and Scarlet and Violet, in addition to ribbons from doing things like beating the elite four, when Pokemon are generated, there’s a chance they can have a personality mark that gives them a title when sent out in battle. Alphas from ZA, assuming the next game works like the last two, will have a ‘Former Alpha’ mark and title.
>>
>>58584729
I got some shinies in shsw but I never noticed this, besides the square shinies...
I'm gonna have to check again
>>
>>58584740
Marks are extremely rare in Sword and Shield compared to SV. No sandwich to give insane boosts and the mark charm only gives 2x. Also things like Dynamax won't give any.
>>
>>58584682
I love the fit anon
>>
>>58584748
also helps that you can check every pokemon for if it has a mark in sv

thanks, I love solrock and lunatone, so this sweater was an instant buy

Hey, at least you could ribbon them up. You can get the Galar Champion, Tower Master, Effort, and Best Friends ribbons. The Master Rank ribbon is probably impossible to get in Gen 8 at this point.

I already have shinies of Mimikyu and Tinkaton from SV. But I wouldn’t mind an alpha version of my two fave mons.

Guess a new code for Milotic will be added for trade

Honestly, what are the chances they will allow other people to join another person’s hyperdimension space? I enjoyed doing BBQ last time.
>>
>>58585587
The trainer made it look like the donuts are going to have the same stats as poffins/pokeblocks so I bet they’ll raise contest stats that way.

Well. Got a shiny Larvitar instead of Pansear. I'm replacing my Absol with it and returning to my monke hunt. I just caught a shiny Pinsir at the same time if anyone's interested in a trade. She's large!

they're freeing Genesect, Zeraroa, Melmetal and Marshadow from jail? that would leave only Zarude and Volcanion not catchable in some game

Volcanion may be an upcoming event.
>>
>>58585755
Event distribution like it has always been or like Diancie where it is catchable? Of course a mystery gift quest like Diancie is technically time limited if they shut down servers but it's actually catchable in-game and you can have it in a ball of your choice which wasn't possible before ZA.

The only ones I haven't caught shiny are Purloin, the Yamasks, Cofagrigious, Wimpod, Golisopod, Darkrai, Kyogre and Genesect (not counting the still-locked mythical shinies). Everything else I've caught at least one of or gotten in a welfare event (Zeraora, Keldeo, Meloetta, etc). So it'll be them, unless it's really fucking painful to hunt the cunts, in which case I'll breed what I can in Gen 8 again.

>>58586522
I recommend you kill all the Pyroar both night and day as that seems to mess with their respawns and hult them until the time change, then you should try the Battle Zone warp method.
Zone 20 is incredibly unreliable, so just keep at Zone 17.

are these hard to hunt?
I remember one guy trying to get a shiny zygarde from this and he said that it is one of the most hardest hunt
>>
>>58587643
Depends. Zygarde and some other high DPS spread move ones are. They’re 1/100 odds when you beat them and there’s some tricks so you have a high chance of winning once you find a lime that works.
>>
>>58587661
what if I want to hunt them full odds? or is that not possible?
>>
>>58587672
No charm its 1/300 because it takes like 15 mins per run. With charm 1/100 and you see 3 mons and the legendary.
>>
>>58587672
No, BDSP and USUM are the last ones you could hunt full odds legendaries, I think, and if they aren’t available there, that’s it (or play Go).

Leaving your switch on for 14 hours is nuts. I've left mine running with the turbo controller for 4 hours straight, and when I check the dock, its burning up. I'd be afraid my switch would melt if I were you.
>>
>>58587817
Switch 1 or 2? I've had my switch 2 on for probably a week now and it's not that hot. I've felt the Switch 1 burn up on other games though.
>>
>>58587817
I always put a fan on mine as precaution
>>
>>58587817
If you can, lay your switch flat on a broad metal surface (washing machine, for example) for a few minutes. Cools it down real fast.
If your controller can go wireless, all the better.
>>
>>58587817
I'd assume it's safe.

I doubt I can lose at the Infinite ZA Royale, but when do you start getting the most reward for even investing time into this?
I feel like once I have the Charm I might just afk farm shinies instead of touch ZA Royale outside of maybe grinding to Level 100.
>>
>>58588051
Close Combat, Earthquake and Spiky Shield are staple.
>>
>>58587948
The AI for me is so aids, as soon as they reach the first bench, they run back to the center.
>>
>>58588529
You always get L candies as rewards. The amount increases the more you do the infinite royale.
I started doing online to get apricot balls instead, but I'm looking for a shiny metagross now because it's necessary to punch that stupid ass deer in the fucking mouth.
Although if you have a fast enough pokemon with haze the stat boosts don't work, and geomancy does take some time to go off...

>Leaving your switch on for 14 hours is nuts

>>
>>58588589
Yeah they need to patch the rewards to at least reflect your win streak.
Also the game keeps throwing Vinnie at me so it's getting pretty boring while I'm grinding Infinite Royale for the shiny charm.
I'm at 800 now. I'll probably dent it tomorrow night or finally wrap it up, but it's very annoying how long this shit takes.
