Chain of 34 or so rn. Paralysis is the big bitch, shouldve burned him earlier somehow, probably would still get the ko
I'M FREE
>>58608694GAH, 43! And it called for help!
>>58608727Congrats! How many resets was the bugger?
>>586087275 Pidgey15 Machop (1 Alpha)20 Numel (2 Alpha)16 Drilbbur (2 Alpha)4 Alpha Garbodor5 Sandile 3 Krokorok (1 Alpha)5 Fletchling 2 TrubbishGibleIt took 76.And that's not counting the 7 Shiny Pokemon of Variety sacrificed to hell in a dark ritual that didn't succeed. RIP.
7 shiny Tyrunts in so far, still no alpha yet.
>>58608735Thats a lot of bycatches. It sucks we only have 30 boxes.
Are all the Noibat hunting areas bench methods? I like my 50 70's
>>58608734Didn't count resets, I'm weak and that'd be a ticket to losing my sanity quicker. A lot. It took a lot.>>58608745Hope I can finish the dex before I overflow.
>20ish resetsWhat's the best moveset for one to use it online?
Looking to trade for a XS female Ralts and Mawile.
>>58608781I caught an xs mawile yesterday after much difficulty. I caught it in the wrong ball though...
>>58608795What ball did you use?
Does anyone have a reliable method for getting the maximum 6 alpha spawns in area 20? I often get stuck at 5, with 6 requiring a painstaking amount of trial and error.
>>58608872Just ultra. I got used to using them because for whatever reason mawile seems to have the same catch rate as fucking dratini.
Haven’t had much time to grind lately but 3/7 done with battle tower in sword and shieldLets go
>>58608753The sewers are your best bet if you wanna just run for one
>finally got the shiny charmNow I can really play the game (flying to the same zone or sitting on a bench over and over).
>>58609057Sorry, meant 4/7 lolOnly 3 boxes left
SHINY ALPHA FEMALE SNORUNT IN A LOVE BALL OOO YEEEEAHH
Day 2 of reclaiming giratina: no luck...I'm becoming obsessed with this hunt now
>>58609329Anon this isn't healthy
>>58609334what? I just hunt whenever I canI still do other things, like playing my gacha games and working out
>get shiny charm, and decide to hunt some stuff>decide to go after maybe a shiny tepig>get bored of running along the fence after like half an hour and decide to see if there's anything cool under the tower>shiny dragalge in the water on the way back>had a shiny dragalge on meI mean, I guess I have a male and a female now. But I'd rather have gotten pretty much anything else in zone 20 instead.
>>58609462You’ll have a box full soon enough, my treat :)
A single female slowbro, call that solosis
>>58609627heh
>>5860962710/10
How do I shiny hunt? How do I do the spawn glitch?
>>58609690type those in google
>tfw have dozens of pyroar shinies>pretend I am a griselle fan
>>58609690How do spawn glitch? How is shiny formed? They need to do way instain trainer> who kill thier shinies, becuse these shiny cant fright back? It was on the news this mroing a trainer in kalos who had kill her three shiny, they are taking the three shiny back to pokecenter too lady to rest. my pary are with the ditto who lost his chrilden ; i am truley sorry for your lots
Anyone here wants a shiny female alpha Lopunny? I already have one and a second one appeared
>>58609740>second oneChild please
>finally shiny gardervoir>it's maleDamn it, I have to keep trying for female while also hunting starters in zone 20 now
>>58609768Yeah, the problem with Zone 20 is most of the Gard spawns seem to be male.
So XS shinies are the rarest now?
I already got 4 Shiny Chespins looking for an Alpha. Anyone want one?
Currently hunting Swirlix by flying to Nouveau Café truck 2 over and over, is there a better place, or is this the best?
>>58610288I did it there too before getting a shiny charm.
>>58610302I have the charm. I have found three shiny Magikarp (one is now a Gyarados waiting for me to use online, when I get the other two intended members grinded up to 100 alongside fishboy), one shiny Spewpa, one shiny Scatterbug and one shiny Gastly. No shiny Swirlix (naturally) and not even a shiny female shitrat, to make up for my fuck up in catching the last in a plain pokéball instead of my customary Luxury ball for shinies.
>>58610315Did you check the roof near the truck and not the alpha? I actually spawned mine as the swirlix on that roof and not the alpha.
>>58610326I was under the impression the alpha Swirlix was at a different truck, I'm at the one near Zone 12 with the scaffolding set to the left and the entrance to the fountain where we entered the sewers with Ivor.
>>58610346Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong truck but the one near zone seven? There's an alpha nearby, and then another spawn right on the truck itself. You can't see it if it spawns, though.
Is wild zone 20 the best place to try and get alpha Glaceon? It seems like the odds are better to try and do it this way than the Eevee in wild zone 19
>>58610469If you only want an alpha Glaceon then z20 is better. If you want a shiny Glaceon though then the odds are very small especially if you want her to be a female.Also, which pokeball should I store this little chocolate?
>>58610674a poop ball
>>58610103And non alpha XLs but youd probably notice an xs more than that online.
after setting up the 6 alpha spawn, can i just afk bench?
Been bench resetting for a week to get alpha female gardevoir. On my way through had a male one spawn by the bench day 1. Today finally there was a Gardevoir spawn in the nest. It’s fucking male. About 80% of the shiny gardevoir that have spawned have also been male - I’ve caught about 16.Immediately after catching it, went to fill the empty slot in the nest and bam straight away Shiny alpha Gallade. Slim chances of that happening that two of the same evolutionary line would pop up.Just incredibly unfortunate with Gardevoir. I need a macro controller so I can speed up this process.
Yes but only 3 of them will roll
>>58608912You know there's two banks of 3 alpha spawns under there right?And if you have one side full you need to pull mons from the side with empty spots in order to fill them?The Zone 20 alphas are really easy, the other spawns are more challenging to setup because they bleed spawns because ???
>>58610747time to force the male gard and gallade to make out
>already got two falinks shinies>keep farming them, because one of them could be a xs manlet
>try the Alpha Drillbur exploit to force guarantee Gible>get TWO Gible spawns>fast travel twice>they're still there>fast travel third time>they disappearOnly thing I noticed is that they do spawn more often than they did originally cause it took me 30ish resets to even get one to spawn, now they spawn every two resets, sometimes I even get 3 to show up, but this exploit doesn't really work.
>>58610922Do you have to anchor mons to the gate?Not sure which setup you're using, but if you can force guarantee 2 Gibles, then you'll have to use distance despawning on the Gibles without despawning the anchors.I'm assuming you're not though, fast traveling will definitely cause spawn bleeding unless you travel to a distance further than 70m from the spawns. This isn't efficient though.
What should I evolve this big little girl into? Leafeon?
>>58611021did shiny eevee always have a hint of yellow/green in that gray
>>58610988You have to drag out an Alpha Drillbur from the gate with Dig, and then at least get 100 meters away from the gate you departed from while ensuring Drillbur doesn't despawn. Then you bring it back, then leave and fast travel.Saving between each point you, closing it, and restarting. It's why I'm mildly pissed I wasted 5 minutes doing this and then it turns out it doesn't work.
>>58611048It only started with the switch games.
I got btfoed by a Watchog a few seconds ago and it makes me want to try the bastard too. Best place to hunt for Patrats or Watchogs?
>tfw already filled up all my boxes with eggsalready hatched 450 eggs and I'm still not done with half of themthis dreepy hunt will be a long one...
Does the bench next to 11 actually work on the slowbro alpha? I swear it hates me.
>>58611369if its in the 50m range of it.
>>58611373It is but…
>>58611367Keep the faith
>>58611377yeah it'll eventually happen. rng is just rude for you.
>>58611021Umbreon
>>58611021Glaceon of course.
>>58611402https://youtu.be/IftiTjiYXTw?t=2962
First random shiny alpha, still need Totodile
I caught a Eevee in a fast ball by accident if anyone with balltism wants a Flareon for a gold cap.
>>58611398Isn't Umbreon defensive? I'm not a competitive autist but wouldn't that be a waste?>>58611402>physical GlaceonSounds even worse
>>58611552Nature mints? And if you’re not a competitive autist it shouldn’t matter to you.
>>58611396Honestly, for the Slowbro I just ran back and forth on the bridge.
>>58611451Got a Totodile in a Lure Ball that I don't need because I caught a Shiny Alpha version the other day. Interested?
>>58611458If you’re willing to hold it for a few hours I can trade after work but if someone else wants it then that’s cool too
>>58611570Yeah i'll hold on it for you. what's your trainer name just in case, senpai
>>58611560I don't want to waste a mint and I don't want to evolve it into something bad if I can avoid it, isn't that pretty simple to understand?
>>58611602Mints can be purchased and Glaceon is phenomenal in this game. So what sre you talking about?
looking for xs monlet is hard. you have to pay attention and sometimes the xs is just a tiny bit different than a s size.anyone find any xs shiny? or maybe s shiny?I got a xs shiny bellsprout and roserade. didn't know I had them.
>>58611602This is just making it more difficult than it needs to be
>>58611568Thanks but i need to get them myself
>>58611619>>58611643I know, I just want the most optical eeveelution with what that little one is right now, no modifications.
>>58608735im on like 5 full boxes of mixed shinies from area 8 and still haven't gotten it. been using fast travel macro for a few days. what method did you do?
Wasn't even hunting for it but I caught an alpha beedrill.
>>58611708I was completely wiping out everything inside Zone 8, all of the Pokemon, wait a minute and then fly and reset the Zone and there would be around 10 holes instead of only 3. Then I'd reset at the Zone 8 point or the Battle Zone point for about a half-hour or hour at most and then rinse and repeat. If you fly to Zone 2 and sit on the bench the Battle Zone above Zone 8 appears within 2-3 cycles. Even with that many holes there was no guaranteed Gible sadly all comes down to luck.
>>58611735noice. its been awhile since I caught a shiny alpha
>>58611021Espeon or Umbreon if you want to go for the full set for whatever reason. (If you'll ask me to pick between those two, then Espeon. I just think it's neat.)You have a decently better chance of catching the rest as tower shalphas, which notably don't include esp/umb in the pool of alphas.
An update, did get a Shiny Gible, Female Modest, trying for an Alpha one.Did invest in an 8bitdo or w/e which arrives tonight so once I head home from work I'll probably program macros into it and have it run over night to try and farm the Gible for me. Have 3 Shiny Drilbur, 1 Shiny Machop, and the Alpha Shiny Krokoroc waiting for me, just haven't caught them because I don't want a Shiny roll to into another one I don't fucking want.
>>58612025>8bitdowhich one did you get? Make sure it's the bluetooth one or it won't work on switch 2.
>turbo buttonBased, lindy>macroToo far. Hope you get banned.
>>58612321both are the same shit
>finally get shiny azumaril>false swipe>azumaril uses double edge:/
>>58612507this is why you should always do some research before hunting a shiny, anon
Weird to play the game for the game and not shiny hunt for once.
>>58612507Ghost tera my nigga. Always be having that in your pocket
5 of each fossil, I'm hopping on that gacha, let's see what sparkles first.
XS, S, M and Alpha Fennekins. All male though.
Still no shiny alpha female ralts. I am disappointed.
>Want shiny Scyther/Scizor>Only spawn in one spot in the entire game>No benches near it>Can't use fast travel because they don't spawn in unless you go in so deep into the wild zoneBullshit.
>>58613008get running
>>58613009Yeah, yeah. I am...
>>58611570I gotta sleep anon. I’ll be back tomorrow.
>>58612201This one
>>58613246i got the orange one. fucking sick
If you've gotten a shiny alpha scoliopede, please explain where and which.I'm losing hope in zone 15...
>>58613292a lot of people just hunted the alpha whirlipede in zone 5
The alolans hated Necrozma because he came from a different land, where his kind ruled and commanded power unlike anything the native Alolans could imagine. The Tapus were powerless against him because he was, Swagapino.
>curious to see what, if any, XS/ XL Pokemon I own, shiny or otherwise>Shiny XS Florges and XL PinsirNeat
fuck pyroar
Still no Shiny Alpha female Ralts but I got a Shiny Eevee.
Finally got a Shiny Alpha Charmander after 2 days macroing. Too bad I couldn't duplicate it.
The monkeys continue to taunt me.
Finally got a Shiny Alpha Ralts, it's got a dick though.
Anyone have a moon ball and want a friend ball?
Day 3 of trying to reclaim Giratina: made it to 4000 SRs (including the 1313 SRs of my failed giratina)the suffering continues...
Just gimme the female fox already
The six female alpha Slowbros were a premonition of my ultimate fate.
>>58613906Did you do the ritual? You are cursed to have foxes with dicks unless you do the ritual
>>58613917alpha/shiny/girldamn. lucky as fuck.
This game really doesn’t want to give me the four alphas that I’m actually looking for (froakie, chikorita, tepig, bulbasaur). Soo many other alphas (very cool) but I already have older ones.
>>58613950Shiny starter alphas are 1/20k with the charm. Just have to get lucky.
>>58613956Oh believe me, I know the odds. Just a bit annoying to get alphas of every other spawn in the areas when you don’t need them.
>Tfw just realized I missed out on Shiny Zeraora and they’re giving him a mega>Probably the only time it will ever be catchable is in the ZA DLC>Tfw it’ll be shiny lockedHow does one cope? I realized I’ll never get a Shiny Shaymin either because I missed Oak’s letter>Just hackMy autism denies me such optiona
>>58613963>I realized I’ll never get a Shiny Shaymin either because I missed Oak’s lettersame and darkrai too. I didn't buy the game so I had no way of getting itI can always give myself the event with a distribution rom on platinum tho
>>58613963There’s multiple ways to hunt/acquire shiny Shaymin. Some fully legit, others questionably so. I missed Zeraora as well, but it wouldn’t be my OT so I don’t mind all that much. Same for Eternatus. I would like Zeraora (non-shiny) just for my living dex, though.
>>58613968What are the ways to hunt shaymin? I have a switch 2 and can’t hack and I caught the PLA one not knowing it was unlocked
>>58613976you can get shiny shaymin in PLA?
>>58613976Pla is shiny locked. Like the other guy said, you can get a Platinum distro cart or you could wait for the Go event rerun. Less legit, get the wifi event for platinum, find a specific version version of BDSP then delete your full data for the game so you can play an unpatched version on the cart that allows you to glitch oob to flower paradise and hunt it normally there.
>>58613963Do what I did but be very careful.Buy BDSP, whichever one you didn’t play originally. That’s a really important note.When buying the game ask to see the cartridges and find one that has no updates except the first one or two that have the Shaymin event - so you’re looking for a 002 revision cart I believe.This transaction is much easier if you’re buying through marketplace or eBay. This way you can use the menu glitch at the end of the game to surf your way over to Shaymin because revision cart 003 takes away Shaymin off the map. That’s how I got mine. It is important you get the version you didn’t play because I’m pretty sure your switch retains the update somehow. Ensure you turn off all connection to the switch and deny all updates until you get your shiny. It only took me a few nights of resetting.
>>58613976Arceus is the only one of those date from previous games things that isn’t shiny locked.
>>58613990I bought a copy of bd explicitly for shiny hunting legendaries, but I don't want to do it without the shiny charm. I'm also a lazy fuck that doesn't want to get all the Pokémon needed to get the shiny charm, so the copy I bought in march of 2024 is just sitting around.I, thankfully, have a modded switch. So I can get myself to whatever the peak version was for getting to shaymin.
>>58614005>I don't want to do it without the shiny charmI wish I was joking, but BDSP charm ONLY works on eggs. Everything else is full odds.
>>58614021Yep, jeet coding at its finest.I have Arceus set up to hunt, but I'm really not feeling it.
>>58614021Oh, shit. I had no idea.Fuck that shit then. I'll just shiny hunt at some point then. Being quite unsuccessful woth za atm.
>>58614045imo if you like possibly longer but infinitely more engaging hunts, Sword and Shield Dynamax have the most legendaries and are the most fun. Otherwise USUM is probably the best.
>>58614052I still haven't played through the 3ds games, despite having a 3ds and having purchased copies of y and sun when the shop was still up.I'll (maybe) get around to playing then at some point, but atm I'll stick with the newer games till I eventually get bored of them.
>>58614060Fun fact about XY, if you ise the radar “on your birthday” ;) you have better odds
Pray for my framerate, I'm about to do Dondozo. On OG Switch. Off and on for the next month, because fuck that.
>>58614082My frame rate was better if I never touched the water. I think it has to do with the splash particles
>>58613963That reminds me, one of the first hunts I did was the illegal glitched Shaymin and I was forever scared I was going to get banned because I had it shiny and hiding in a corner of my box shortly after release.
Shiny Alpha or Shiny XS Monlet? Which one is better?
>>58614166alpha for meta pvp and XS for solo. having a little monlet is so adorable when its following you.
aww yeah
Alright, my 8bitdo is here and I just got home. Taking a wicked shit and then Ima set up my account to farm Shiny Gibles, hopefully. Should I clear out my current shinies and start with fresh rerolls or just leave them there to hopefully increase the odds of Shiny Gibles?
>>58614199also I've learned from searching for XS; if you are near mon that aren't hostile and you have a mon of the same species following you, the wild ones will stop moving around and let you near it. so far works on ralts, slowpokes, bellsprouts, staryu, and other non-aggressive ones.
>>58614298oh doesn't work on pokemon that run away instantly when they see you like delibird and budew
>8 hours of shiny 6 alpha farming>Zero shiny alphas but a random shiny garde near the gatethanks?..
>>58614294nvm it's giving me an error to contact the developer for some fucking reason out of the box?
>>58614359kek, sometimes i fucking hate electronics
Just got female alpha glaceon i wasn't even hunting.Her shiny sucks
>>58614386Have to run it as Administrator, also for some reason it can't detect other Macros, not sure if that's a recent update or not since this is my first time with one so I had to put in a Macro from scratch to Shiny Hunt Gible, it's very poorly optimized since there's seconds between the fast travel, but I'll like it like that over night.
>>58614359Update the software using the app? It needs a firmware upgrade to work on the Switch 2.
>>58614509It's finicky as fuck. It took me twelve minutes to get a bench macro set up and I just spent ten minutes on a macro to buy moomoo milk and even that isn't perfect.
>>58614659Really? The bench is simply: + A (1s delay) + A (1s delay) + A (1s delay).I use the phone app to set all my macros, less options but easy to edit.
>>58614675(left analog stick backward for default 0.3s) + A (1s delay) + A (1s delay) + A (1s delay).
>>58614675Not great at figuring out the ms yet. First controller with the function.
>>58614696I call it delay, bit its "hold" function , shown as clock icon. I never use the Pc software si can tell you where to find it.
>>58614166Depends on the mon's regular size and purpose.>AlphasBig hitters with big AoEs that are already decently big in size. Ex. Garchomp, Metagross, Gyarados, Tyranitar, etc.>XSFrailer Pokemon that already tend to be small in stature, but still have good utility offensively or as support. Making them smaller makes them harder to deal with. Ex. Emolga, Stunfisk, Pikachu, Flareon, etc.>MThe all-rounder. Reasonable hiboxes and hurtboxes. Can't go wrong.Pokemon that fly or float become surprisingly more tedious to deal with the smaller they are. It feels like they can distance themselves much more quickly. The difference in survivability between my Alpha Mega Delphox and medium one was pretty huge.
>>58614706App doesn't work with the Ultimate 2. It's a whole thing apparently
>>58614749Damn, I have the Pro2.Maybe check Austin John Plays on YouTube, there's a new video today about 8bit macro.
>woke up to a shiny Gardevoir, Roserade, and alpha HawluchaIts a good morning today.
Aside from Alpha Spinarak, I have no more targets to hunt until the DLC.I'm free, bros.
I thought I remembered seeing they’d talk more about the DLC on the 19th. Did I schizo out and this never happened?
>>58615200yes, there's gonna be news on the 19th
>>58615213Ok, I skimmed through the trailers again and didn’t see anything so I thought I was retarded (I still am)
>>58615244it wasn't announced in the trailer
>>58615252Ah, well that’s literally the image I remembered seeing.
What rooftop was the dratini you could run back and forth for on again? Not sure if I'd want to evolve it past dragonair. Shiny mega dragonite looks nice, but the hulk green has always been a major turnoff in terms of aesthetics.
>>58615595there's like 3 of them
>>58608671I used to hate his design, but it has kind of grown on me.
>>58615252Mega Jynx and Tropius next.
>shiny alpha goodra before i got my shiny dratini
>leave 8bitdo running over night>see that someone turned off my switchFML
This is probably a technique people figured weeks ago but>go to the second entrance to the sewers when it rains>deattach your joycons>use a rubber band or whatever so the left one keeps the joystick moving downwards>keep the right one on your hand>just spam A and your character will enter and leave the sewers constantly>it's raining so Goomy will spawn just in front of you and every time you exit is a new roll>do whatever while you keep spamming A, check the results every once in a whileDid it for like an hour the other day and got no results, then did it again today and just when I was getting dressed to buy some groceries checked and I got a shiny alpha. Then moved a little and discovered I actually got two of them at the same place.
>>58615872Forgot to mention I don't have the shiny charm I have yet to reach rank A lmao so the results will be better for you guys
>>58615865Rip.
Anyone know of a bench for a cleffa? All I can find is someone on reddit who got one by luck and doesn't understand the 50m rule.
>>58615946Just travel to 19 at night and run along the side then travel back
I got a shiny fletchling and it looks okay. i don't really prefer the normal or shiny in this case.
I ran into a hacker. His visual name was Centro, but his actual name was Chinese characters. He was spamming moves faster then physically possible.
>>58616089webm?
>>58616089The Garchomp EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE EARTHQUAKE fucker? Ran into him earlier too
>>58616095I didn't get a recording, it didn't occur to me till after I bailed out. >>58616105Yeah, that guy.
>>58616108rip
>>58616095Theres tons of videos of him online lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoigXoONfvw
>>58613246honestly why not just get the ultimate 2? It's the same price and I believe comes with more shit.
>>58614489I'll trade something for them, if you're willing. I've been trying to hunt one for a while now.
Fatty obtained after 13188 flights to zone 3!
>only one Shiny Gible after 8 hours>got it in my first 50 something resetsIma tweak the macros a bit and see if I can precisely predict the load time for my Switch OLED so I can maximize it, but yeah this shit is annoying. I want an Alpha Jolly or Adamant one, but it's becoming clear I might have to settle for any Alpha I can get that is Shiny.
>>58616282Watch it be Centro Leaks lol
>>58616282NSO costs $20 btw.
>>58617261Could use the free trial.
Shiny Alpha Noivern. Which is nice? It's kind of a play dough green.
>>58617298i find it kinda minty
>>58617278NTA, but the stupid Trial ticks down faster than it claims, lol. I started it on Friday night, and it was expired by Tuesday midnight.
>>58617298Mine is named Boombox
>>58617336I'll probably call it Norman if I decide to level it.
But why do the monkeys not shine?
>>58617376desire sensor
>almost an entire box filled with Shiny Chespin because the game just doesn't want me to get an AlphaI've been at this shit for 4 days, man...
>>58617378You say that, yet the reset after I posted that, I got another shiny Panpour. Sadly, I fucked it up with the wrong ball and the reset didn't put me back to morning with the shiny monkey but the previous night, so I am still monkeyless. My "desire sensor" if you want to call your inability to hit the right RNG has spewed up several other shinies desired by anons over the generals since Z-A's launch (including getting a random budew in zone 2, roserade in 20, two alpha Absol and a Beldum in a half-hour of spamming "A" while watching shit on youtube). But RNG is RNG, thus is patchy, especially when sat in one place doing something boring like hitting a bench for a cutscene (got shitloads of randomers fly-resetting zones, which is a bit more interesting as it requires interaction with the game) and bitching asbout your lack of luck always seems to jar the universe into hitting the roll, as my lost munkey proves.
I kinda wanna get a curry and fishing mark shiny. The fishing one is kinda fucked cause its not guaranteed, and the curry one is fucked because you have to make curry. But damn those marks are really funny.
>>58617385Wanna trade for a shiny Fennekin?
>>58617439question from a retard that hasn't played SV yetdo the sandwiches increase the shiny odds or only increases the encounters for certain pokemon?
>>58617460BothIf you make a sandwich with certain ingredients, it will boost "sparking power" and "(type) power"
>>58617478so if I wanted to hunt full odds, I just need to go sandwich-less?
>>58617483No, you need to make sure you don't have sparkling power. Encounter rate sandwiches are fine.
>>58617496oh okay, thanks anon
>>58608671Is RNG for shiny spawns really the best possible system when filling up the dex is supposed to be the major point of the games?
>>58617766I don't think you can RNG ZA
Charm got, no clue what to hunt! I like Eevee but I don't knowwhere one would spawn constantly to be worth hunting and Skarmory is a maybe but those fucking lions
>>58617825Zone 18 is a good place for eevee.
>>58617981Alright, so zone 18 for eevee, zone 17 for skarmoryi have my targets now I need to stock up on ultra balls, leave nothing to chance, the catch rates are dogshit in this game it took me a damn hour to catch a belum no point in trying for ballism hereI think I'll go for the waifumons as well where best to hunt lopunny, fenniken forstlass and ralts line?
>>58618011Zone 18 for fenniken and lopunny. Ralts is like a few blocks away from it. You can try zone 20 for froslass or zone 12 for snorunt. Use this to find exactly where ralts is.https://serebii.net/pokearth/lumiosecity/
I keep getting shitty hippos instead of tepig. HelpAlso is there any way to make more tepigs spawn like the alpha Pokémon in the middle
Think I managed to save on THE last possible frame before Fennekin respawns. Hell yeah.
>leave 8bitdo running>2 shiny trubbish and 1 shiny fletchling >no shinies in zone 8 Holy shit man
>>58618160play soulless strats, win soulless prizes :^)
>>58618160I also spawned a pidgey in for you ;)
>>58618176I'd take a pidgey over another Fletchling
day 4 of trying to reclaim giratina: still no luck...
Was getting Eevees for just filling out the dex in Legends ZA and got a full odds shiny Eevee out of nowhere.I wanna put it on the team. Which Eeveelution should I go for?Currently the ones I want on my team are>Feraligatr (Starter)>Diggersby (My first full odds shiny I found)>Medicham (Just kinda like it so far)I feel like the best looking shiny Eeveelutions are Espeon, Umbreon, Sylveon and Vaporeon. Vaporeon and Espeon would be double dipping so they're out unless there's some reason I should reconsider.
>>58618456Male or female? Also if you will alpha hunt zone 20 there are eeveelutions there excluding Espeon and Umbreon.
>>58608694The other one is going poorly. That 1/300 ass chance is still kicking my balls
>>58618456Umbreon is my favorite eevee shiny but I don't see it being used much online. It's mostly Glaceon, Flareon and Vaporeon. I have tried umbreon as a screen setter but you really have to depend on the other two mons to pull more than their weight.
>>58618567Umbreon just gets demolished by xerneas unfortunately. Glaceon only exists for you to lose a guy, respawn, and then target whatever dragon type with ice beam from across the map. Flareon can get KOs but faints easily, and its movepool is still garbage, so it's on giga impact + flare blitz + swords dance to nuke anything with a fire weakness. Chandelure's better though because heat wave is a tracking move. Vaporeon can do well since chandy is fairly popular, though ice beam isn't strong enough to one shot most garchomps unless you use a plus move + calm mind Though hydro pump can oneshot pretty much any fire type and it's good for dealing with the annoying assholes bringing camerupt .
>>58618734I'll try Vaporeon. I've been using Glaceon and it's kinda hard having a movepool that's just ice moves.
>>58618755I use the anti-electric berry on mine because retards with ampharos will just hop over to you the first chance they get, and every xerneas runs thunderbolt, so it can let you live a hit when you go to snipe someone's fire type or dragon type
Could’ve sworn Drampa was male only. I guess even girls can be grandpas…
>>58618769
>running around looking for the last screw I need>get a shiny alpha raltsIt's a male, so of course it became a gallade.I also a couple of flabebes, a scatterbug, and a bunnelby while running around essentially aimlessly while looking for a screw I don't really care about apart from the fact that I've got every other screw.
>>58618887I found my last screw in vert specifically in one of those buildings that enclose on a garden.
I am so sick and tired of fucking shiny diggersby
>>58618769Should really be called Dramma.
>>58619214Diggersby tho
To the Anon who gave me a shiny male Fennekin a few days ago: I named him "Ludwig", and he got me through ranked. I can now Mega evolve him. Assuming you're still here, I felt like telling you. Once again, thank you, and I wish you the best of luck on whatever hunt you're doing now.
Is the size value actually really random? As I fill up boxes the number of pokemon that aren't M sized doesn't line up with the expectations.
>9 hours>still not even an alpha gibleHoly shit man
Is wild zone 19 or the north side of 11 better for shiny furfrou hunting?
>>58619214FUCK NOT ANOTHER FAT FUCKING RABBIT
>>58619698Probably 19 due to the number of spawns of them. I got my two shiny Furfrous from there (one an alpha but not the fixed spawn alpha in the gazebo).
>>58619750Only two more and I'll have all the forms for my dex once home compatibility is out.
>>58619393Yes its random but the values covered under the sizes are not equally distributed. M covers what were multiple ‘sizes’ in SV.
>>58620215I know that, but the values that fall under the "M" category should acount for about 63% of all possible values, meaning you'd expect roughly 1 pokemon out of 3 to be "not M", and that doesn't check out with what I see.
well, it's finally come to thisi have every shiny mega pokemon available in the game pre dlc......except for aerodactyl
>>58617825there's a battle zone that spawns right outside the area of wild zone 17 where skarmory and the lions spawn at. if you fast travel to that zone it resets the spawn for skarmory since it's in range. that's how i got my shiny
>find a dratini on a roof and being run-resetting it>notice a bench facing its spawn, begin benching>10-ish benches later shiny Alpha DratiniI kinda wanted a regular sized one, because Z-A online, but I'll take it.
>>58620443I got mine really quickly too. It took like ten minutes or so. Mine's a regular though.
>>58620455>>58620443Where's the bench?
>>58620531It's like directly across from it. It's the same place you find diancie.
>>58620531Dunno, was in a patch of 4 or 5 bellsprout though.
>>58620455Magenta sector 8.
>Kakuna and Weedle can be shiny if I fast travel to zone 8Ima just abuse the bench at this point. I have 3 Numels and 1 Machop waiting.I have 6 slots open for my rolls. The Drillbur exploit does not work idk why people shill it.
>>58620062I am done. Every trim. Your days are numbered, GO stamp Furfrou.
>>58620795All the furfrou trades are for hacked mons, ignore them
>>58620854No, I mean I have my own now. I don't need them. All trims, normal and shiny, for my personal living form dex.
>>58620865Ah, well very cool then
Does anyone have galar slowpoke for trade?
>>58620443Dragonite can benefit from being Alpha sized, so it's not a problem.
>>58619200I found my last one. It was indeed in vert, but it was on a roof top.
>6+ hours of fast travel in zone 20>2 roserade, 1 fletchling and alpha dragoniteI can understand not getting bulbasaur because it's rarer spawn but holy shit do my luck sucks when it comes to gardevoir. It's supposed to be common spawn but I only got 1 male gardevoir. Meanwhile I have 7 roserade.
>>58620443Honestly, I get that.This is mainly just for flavor but alpha dragonite is a lot smaller than I thought it would be. I was quite disappointed when I got one from area twenty
>shiny hunting bagon/salamance>it spots me before I quick travel away, so I dip out by the lopunny>shiny alpha lopunny>male
>>58621728why are you going inside in the first place?
>>58621747To get the bagon/salamance to spawn.
>>58621900you don't really need to go inside to make them spawnjust watch them from outside the gate. That's what I did and got multiple bagon and eventually I just changed to bench resets to get the salamence
>>58621728>>58621900Bench reset for them. You'll probably get it after an hour or two. If you don't care about trainer IDs I can send them to you.
>>58621728I have gotten everything in the zone 10 times over trying to get this fucking female fox
Motherfucker turned right as I took the picture
>>58622472Alright it waved back
Does fennekin spawn on fast travel or is it too high up?
>>58622681too highyou need to bench or spawn reset
>>58622690kill me
>>586216425 hours later I finally got bulbasaur. Other shinies I have are another flectchling and malamar. Fuck gardevoir, I'm bench resetting for female ralts later.Now it's time to hunt tepig. It's last one I need for all shiny staters
Something weird just happened to me. I had done the Wild Zone 20 alpha spawn duplicate exploit. I had 5 alphas and started hunting, and when I got a shiny spawn I caught it, no problem. I then went to play some matches online and when I go back to Wild Zone 20 my 2 extra alpha spawns were gone. I was back to the regular 2 alphas. Has this happened to anyone else?
>>58616669Why didn't you just do the one in area 6?
>>58622433got mine without even having to reset cause it was a shiny female right when I climbed up to start. thanks for balancing out the odds with me :^)
I do wish there was wonder trading. I feel weird just leaving shinies to rot. I guess you can still check size and natural nature / IVs to see if you hit an absolute stupid lucky roll
>>58608795Found one by luck but had no love ball to catch it in…
>>58623488I can trade you a love for a friend.2348
>>58623516I just got a friend ball coincidentally, but yea sure. We use your post number.
Caught a Shmighty Garchomp in GO.
>finally hit an Alpha Gible >night end forcing it to be lost Holy shit, I know it wasn't shiny, but Ima kms. These day and night cycles are too short.
>>58623629How’s the mighty spawns? Pretty rare or what?
>>58623703Put on an incense and they're basically every minute or every other minute. The safari balls however, they're very rare unless you use coin or buy them.
>>58623707SiiickShinies won’t run so I’m less worried about the balls
>>58623701Nvm caught one just now. Will keep shooting for the shiny until 6AM and then just call it there.
>>58622716>alpha SkarmoryInsane luck but feeling pity for all anons who have to deal with zone 17
What ball goes best with a female shiny Mawile? I was thinking Love ball, but should I wait on the Dream balls from the season's end?
>walking past wild zone 4>hear two shiny sounds go off>one is a alpha shiny spinarak>one is a regular shiny spinarak>alpha is male>regular is femalewell that's just cool, I've always liked shiny ariados
After almost 4 weeks my shiny starters quest have been completed. All are M sized and males.
>>58623978Also managed to get alpha chikorita while hunting bulbasaur. I'm keeping it considering how rare it is.I can trade an extra charamander if anyone want him. He's in luxury ball
>>58623978>>58623985Nice. I still need Totodile.
>>58622716>Fuck gardevoirbet
Thirteen shiny malamar in the last three days. I'm KOing them at this point. Literally give me ANY shiny starter or alpha at this point, fuck
>second squirtletotodile....
>>58624433one more and you'll the entire line
>90 Shinies later>finally get Alpha Shiny Gible>Adamant instead of Jolly>both Defenses are practically 0 IVs>Speed IVs are also low >female>not enough bottle caps>burned a Gold oneClose enough. Ima kms now(go to sleep).
>>58625081Oh yeah, btw, what's the best moveset for Garchomp and Greninja in Ranked? Ima farm Froakie tonight to try and get a Shiny Alpha one.
>>58625102Chomp>EQ>Dragon Rush>Swords Dance>Poison Jab, because XerneasGreninja>Nasty Plot>Ice Beam>Dark Pulse>Water Shuriken or Hydro Pump
>>58625177Thanks brother.
>watch a video about overloading spawns in zone 8>bored, so give it a try>spend 20 mins overloading spawns>Teleport for 3 minutes>Go check Gible spawns>Find thisNot bad for my first Shalpha. I figured this hunt would take a lot longer. I know moon balls dont really match, but theyre my favorite
After all this time... She's beautiful.
>>58625645And here she is all grown up, for her movie debut!
>>58625553Beast ball look the best for gible line shiny or non shiny, too bad its not available yet
finally got my shiny dreepy!after only 824 full odds eggs. I'm glad I don't need to continue recieving more eggs...I still have a lot of boxes of eggs tho...
>>58625653Not even a close fit for Chomp.Luxury ball is the closest, but there isn't a perfect one.
>>58625666That's a terrible feeling. Any of those eggs could be shiny.Is an MM'd mon even worth it if it isn't pentaperfect?
>>58625678I wasn't doing masuda method. I was using another english dreepy I got from the GTS so I could get eggs more quickly and one of mine
Had takena break from the game to play Hyrule Warriors.Got the 100% yesterday, so today I'm back hunting and managed to find a Sliggoo very quickly.
>>58625861I just can't bring myself to go back after TotK. The story was told, it's done. Even TotK had massive problems that made it less enjoyable than even BotW was.
>>58622984Sunk cost fallacy. I didn't realise there was a set spawn until four days in.
>spend an hour in zone 3 trying to get skiddo to spawn shiny>stay to try for pancham>shiny skiddo now spawning with every check
>spent 2 1/2 years hunting an alpha Froslass/female Snorunt in L: A>no luck>L: Z-A launches>finish game>begin shiny hunting>piss around in WZ20>Enter check, leaver/reset>Shiny Alpha Froslass>throw ball>realise as I let it go it's an ultra not a luxury bal>*click*I mean "woo. Yay. Great." Just wish I'd used the right fucking ball. We go again!
holy shit i'm going insane. why do i keep getting the ugly fucking hippo. why won't tepig show up. why won't even lucario or charmander show up. why is it always the disgusting hippo. i feel like my game is bugged
You guys should be go maxxing today and tomorrow
>>58625081just get first online, you get showered in bottle caps
>>58626995go shinies are worthless
>>58627106No more worthless than modern Pokemon shinies. If you can honestly call anything in ZA worth anything.
>>58627163AZ shinies still take a lot to get full odds, especially if you go for a specific target, like my alpha salamence. It took around 6600 bench resets to finally shine
>>58626995I have every one of those pokémon in your screenshot both shiny and generated by a core game already and I got to wage-slave tomorrow on top.
>>58626986anyone? is my game broken?
>>58627208no, you just have shit luck at getting your targetbut that's normal. Sometimes you get them early, other times you need to grind more for them
>>58627213i know but this is ridiculous. that's like 7 ugly hippos now
>>58627224that's what happens when you reroll multiple pokemon at the same time since there's no way to isolate pokemon
>>58626986Shiny starter anon here. Have you try your luck at the centre for chances of shiny alphas? It prevents me from going insane after amount of shiny roserade, malamar and hippowdon.
>>58627272i'm bored of going for the alphas. it aggros the pokemon and makes things take longer but yeah i do look in the middle now and then when i feel fed up
>>58626986I overloaded the spawns in that area and got a shiny Charmander (and hippo...) after like 10 minutes.
