    The first time you get a pop-up about less pokemon spawning, it means you've knocked out 25. The 2nd pop-up means you've knocked out 50. Really good for keeping track if your counting is wrong or you just don't want to count at all.

    A note regarding caves and valleys: Caves and valley areas do decrease the spawn zone but they can also spawn Pokémon inside of walls and ceilings (if you’re in a cave). Though this is something Nintendo or Gamrefreak is probably going to patch up in future updates, for the time being you should scan the walls for any hidden Pokémon and/or hidden shinies which may be inside of the walls and ceilings. You can do this by holding down ZL and simply looking at the wall and moving around so that you can see the entire length of the wall or ceiling; most of the time you can lock onto Pokémon through walls.

  • @polarbroomega7263
    @polarbroomega7263 Рік тому +336

    A note that helps a great deal, at least for me, on counting how many you've killed. Your "The outbreak has less pokemon" or w/e message is your 50th, so you can just not count until you see that message, then count the next 10. It's infinitely easier to pay attention for the message than keep track of 60 individual kills.

      You can keep going in that outbreak until the time of day or number of Pokémon runs out. All of them after the 60th have the same odds. Catching a shiny, saving, and picnicing will only decrease the full spawnable amount by 1.

    Dude!!!! I tried your method and in a little over half an hour got my Shiny Noivern - a mon I've been hunting since SwSh came out!!! I don't have the shiny sandwiches or charm yet, so I found a mass outbreak of noivern using your re-set method and made an encounter power 2 dragon sandwich and then, funnily enough, got a noibat!!! I then evolved her and boom!! One dream shiny down!!!
    Thank you so much for the detailed explanations AND how to change the screen color for better help distinguishing colors. I used to play hockey and got more than my fair share of concussions so I can't stare at a screen for long periods of time without migraines or extreme headaches, so I was worried about shiny hunting when I found out you had to look for them instead of listening.

    If you're having trouble keeping track of how many Pokemon you've defeated using the Lets Go feature, you can always keep track of the specific Pokemon material they're dropping via your inventory. For example, if you're shiny hunting Florges - take note of how many Florges petals (or whatever they're called) you have in your inventory and how many each Florges is dropping when defeated. From there it's pretty easy math to figure out how many Florges' you've defeated via the material drops.

    • @johnp6607
      @johnp6607 Рік тому +2

      I'm sure the amount of materials obtained when defeating a Pokémon can vary from 1 to 3 (and it's random after each defeat) so this isn't a good method.
      Instead, check for when the message pops up saying there are fewer Pokémon in the outbreak, it appears exactly when 50 Pokémon have been defeated, then just count to 10

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
    I remember when Sw/Sh came out I just HAD to get a shiny G. Yamask. That took me probably 20+ hours (at least) before finally getting lucky, and that was before any actually good hunting methods were out.
    This time, only with the boost of 60 K/Os from a mass outbreak, I got a shiny P. Wooper in at most 20 MINUTES!!!
    Obviously a lot of that is luck, but I just had to say thank you so much for always bringing us the best guides on UA-cam. You're the best!

    Caught my first ever legitimate shiny this morning at about 4:30 am.
    I was at the 59th hour of playtime. And I actually was NOT looking for it at all. Just moving through area zero and I see something blue.
    I've played pokemon since red and blue (I know neither of which has shinies) but after over 20 years... I've finally caught a shiny.
    And I'm actually very happy that it was a gen 1 pokemon, Venomoth, as my first ever shiny (not counting pokemon go). 11/27/22
    Besides that, thanks for this video and running through the entire process of shiny hunting and answering some questions I had. It made things very easy to understand.

    It’s cool that you considered the color blind. Gaming can be way harder for them than anyone can think. I used to play eso and we had a tank that struggled with blues and we were doing something where the bosses ability would turn the boss transparent blue and to him. The dude literally went invisible and he sadly dropped the progression mostly because of this issue. It was a sad moment. So yeah it’s awesome you consider that

    This guide is so helpful little tricks that I’ve learnt are doing outbreaks on the edge of towns is super quick if you can see them as soon as you cross the town border and the outbreaks in the ocean seem to spawn a lot more Pokémon and you can just ride a very short distance away to reset the spawns rather than do the picnic method. Just did it for finizen and caught 3 shinys in 20 minutes (first 10 mins I was doing picnic and found none) and also found a full odds shiny sandygast on the beach while riding back and forth to reset the spawns which has a really nice black evolution when you turn it into palossand

    You don't have to change the date and time at the start of a new day. So if you make a save at 11:59pm, you can just close the game and everything will reset. You don't have to keep saving or changing the date. You only have to change the date once you save.

    One tip with terrastalized Pokémon walking on the overworld, they may be shiny and you may not notice! Due to all the glittering I didn't realise my elektross was shiny and thought the green colour was normal (just forgot I guess) I caught him only because he had a dragon terra, and I didn't have his final Evo in my Dex. Noticed later I battled a shiny, mourned thinking I killed it without noticing. But found it in my boxes when I was choosing my 6 Pokémon for elite 4. Just a heads up.

    You probably don't want to save AFTER making your super-rare sandwich-before finding a shiny-as he recommends at 13:45. All meal buffs vanish upon reloading, which would eschew the bonus rate for Pokémon other than just the dozen or so static ones present when saving. I hope this doesn't mess up too many people.
