I can’t say I have a favorite shiny! Some of the gold gen 1 shines are great though. Hey btw do you remember me from when you only had around 1-2k subs? Edit: favorite shiny is Lapras
I've never tried a proper hunt in LGPE I just thought the games were fine. Good for what they were, but I had no attachment to it in the way I do others, but the more I see, the more I think I should try a couple hunts on LGPE. Great video!
Your next task: hunt every pokemon owned by a main character in the anime shiny, in their right gender/form. Example: Ash's Snivy was female, so you would have to hunt for a FEMALE shiny Snivy, not male.
I feel your pain on chaining magmar (edit: or Lapras XD). It took me 5 hours and 58 minutes (and 54 catches) to get to a chain of 10 hitmonlee, not because they ran away (much though they tried) but because I kept phasing, to the point I abandoned the fourth shiny (a graveler) because I couldn’t stand the thought of starting again AGAIN 😂 in the end I got it at 10 1/2 hours and a 300 chain
I remember Shiny hunting Staryu on Let's Go, Eevee! blind, having not looked up its Shiny colouration beforehand. I was astounded how beautiful it was.
I think this is the second game to not rlly need to struggle for funds. The hunts start to pay for themselves. I reset my game and went for nidoran male and sold off all the candies but the nidoran male ones. And. Sweet cash flow.
I think this game got a reputation for "easy" shiny hunting because compared to the old games, it is, and even compared to SwSh it's faster since they're shiny in the overworld. But compared to Arceus or ScVi, it is NOT. 😂 Great job.
Catch combo wise- you urself can run before a Pokemon flees and the combo does not break. Even if you go to the wrong Pokemon (or wrong shiny for some) just back out and if you have not caught it or if it has not fled the combo still stands.
Johnstone has a great summary of how shiny hunting works in these games in his video about catching all the shinies in these games. If you want to learn how to hunt easily, go check his video out!
You used to be able to get a catch combo of 31. Wait around and any shiny would pop up. I did a factory reset on my switch and turned off auto updates and it still doesn’t work. Maybe the past never happened
I got shiny caterpie and weedle with only 54 catch combo each guess I'm just lucky😅😂 also I found 2 other shiny weedle straight after a successful oddish hunt
this video began on autoplay since i fell asleep watching youtube last night. i JUST started replaying lgpe before going to bed. Me & Eevee are very greatful for this video!! hunting Caterpie atm!
900 caterpie omg I had bad luck with my nidoran males running from me so I stopped at a 31 combo, and found it really quick. This was before when it was thought to have increased rates whether you caught more or not, so I guess I just got REALLY lucky 😅
When Thumbus got a shiny tentacool instead of a lapras I remembered it happened to me too but I was hunting for a weedle and got another shiny caterpie
I'm currently playing LG pikachu finding a 6 31IV shiny ditto in a master ball (no luck yet) but I managed to get 17 6IV dittos and I'm only missing 12 natures to have all 25 as 6iv set & I managed to get a 4 31iv ditto with 0 in attack & speed but I'm still on the hunt for the ultimate ditto
This is the one mainline game I just never bought because even for shiny hunting purposes, I had already gotten all of the gen 1 mons before this was out. I also just do not like its control scheme. But I can't deny just how vibrant the game is compared to all of the other Switch pokemon games. It's like they actually took advantage of the fact that it's HD. SWSH and SV just went back to the 3ds era washed out colors.
I don’t fully understand the shiny concept. So do i catch 31 in a row of the same pokemon then after that i can just keep leaving and entering an area to hunt for a shiny or do i just need to continue catching the same pokemon until shiny appears?
That’s what I was doing for most of my time but if you’re hunting special spawns without catching them you don’t get candies and you use a bunch of lures lol
Cletus says SUBSCRIBE! WERE ALMOST AT 50K!!!! ALSO what’s you’d favorite gen 1 shiny?⬇️⬇️
Hey thumbas ive been wiping up some fanmade content for you! would you mind letting me khow your fav song?

I'd say ninetales tho i do also have a soft spot for kabutops and arcanine

W idea
That’s genius. I may try this myself
getting a shiny version of all of the protagonist teams would be nice
both anime and manga teams
That’s like saying: shiny hunt with your eyes close and no hands.
@@DittosUniverse no it isn’t bro what
underrated tbh. i liked these games a lot.
15:08 YIPPEE SHINY DRAGON! 😍
holy luck dude..
congrats on the wild finds!! especially *REDACTED*
REDACTED was my favorite find!!
Can we have a colab video for you two? Maybe a legends arceus shiny race or something?
“And some of them can’t be found in other switch games like Weedle and Caterpie” Caterpie being in SwSh and BDSP and Weedle being in BDSP:
20+ hours is actually just diabolical
Using a master ball on a shiny lapras is a play i would absolutely make 😂
3:31 you said that weedle AND caterpie cant be found in other switch games but caterpie is found in SWSH where butterfree got a GMAX
Video suggestion, you spend one day catching green shinies, to support the green gang!
Thumb Boy: Allow an expert like myself to explain
3 seconds later....
Thumb Guy: It's not like im an expert or anything 😂😂
DW Thumbus, you didn't peak in high school. You're still creeping up on your prime!
Masterballing Lapras is so real. Id have done the same in that situation
you either love thumbus or LOVE thumbus. there’s no in between.
Goat
Love the new profile picture! I Love the let’s go games too!
Already a classic
where’s the cletus? i thought those were a myth (im so sorry) ((also this video rocked and was so funny nice job as always king))
Stop
Top 5 shiny hunting methods is def playing Let’s Go. So much fun
Awesome idea for a video! These are my favorite Pokémon games, thank you.

i did the cheating way for hunt! get the first 10 combo from sending the species (hitmonlee for example) from pkm go at safari zone
Love the new pfp, man!

Finally another green shiny connoisseur

THUMBUS got rid of his SpongeBob character UNbeliavble
Damn that was such a banger
4:56 don’t ever disrespect butterfree again. That’s one of the most magnificent pokemon ever
Nice vid, I picked up the game a few days ago and proceeded to shiny hunt, I get one target shiny before each badge
Geez louise Thumbo
Aww geez

Bro if you don't catch them on the first or second try run they don't escape before that
These are some of my favorite pokemon games
New profile pic! Let’s go!

My highest catch combo without shiny it’s 2347 I tilt and sell the game… Nidoran I have to find u NOW !!!!!!

A shiny magmar ran into me when i entered pokemon mansion my first time

RAGHHHHGHHHHFGG THERES THE GOOD OLD THUMBO! I see this is what you have been working on. Awesum vid. Yayayyayayaayyayay

Hundred hours 100 more reasons to like Thumbus
Thumbas drop gonna be a good day
I received the notification of the video, and I didn't recognize the channel because of the new pfp lol
holy frick shiny lapras looks so nice with a master ball
Can you try to find a shiny legendary birb in the wild in your next video?
Welcome to the team of “I had a good chain going and it was broken by a shiny Dragonite”
Good club to be a part of!
@@Thumbus It sure is! All shiny Dragonites go towards being members of #Greengang
Good vid
When Thumbus got a shiny tentacool instead of a lapras I remembered it happened to me too but I was hunting for a weedle and got another shiny caterpie
Yes ive just finished a badge quest of this game 2 day ago yay
My favorite gen 1 Pokemon is Charizard
I like Dragonite 😃
This Lapras way is the best! I had it in 40 min
I'm currently playing LG pikachu finding a 6 31IV shiny ditto in a master ball (no luck yet) but I managed to get 17 6IV dittos and I'm only missing 12 natures to have all 25 as 6iv set & I managed to get a 4 31iv ditto with 0 in attack & speed but I'm still on the hunt for the ultimate ditto
I'm sorry for all the pain you had to go through just to get the f*cking caterpillar
You. Posted ur back start streaming immediately
Hey Dude, awesome video. but, you know whem you reach 31 you really don't need to catch anymore right? just wait for shiny
This is the one mainline game I just never bought because even for shiny hunting purposes, I had already gotten all of the gen 1 mons before this was out. I also just do not like its control scheme. But I can't deny just how vibrant the game is compared to all of the other Switch pokemon games. It's like they actually took advantage of the fact that it's HD. SWSH and SV just went back to the 3ds era washed out colors.
The controls are definitely rough but it is a very pretty game for sure!
fun wish i could find 1 tentacool but no luck here
Next challenge: shiny hunt in gen 1 (and no red gyarados ditto transform shenanigans)
This vid makes me want to play Let's Go again so bad..!
While I was playing on my second save file I found a full odds shiny weedle before I had the first gym badge
You need to watch for their flee animation, if you see it then you have to run away to keep your chain
I don’t fully understand the shiny concept.
So do i catch 31 in a row of the same pokemon then after that i can just keep leaving and entering an area to hunt for a shiny or do i just need to continue catching the same pokemon until shiny appears?
Yes
PINK!
Bro, you missed a shiny! 8:11 it was a pitchy
😭 UR RIGHT (BTW PIDGEY)
you dont have to catch them all lol just do the combo and pick a spot where u can go in and out they will re spawn every time
Oh yeah i forgot you are the greengang guy
Im also team green! Love green shiny pokemon :)
i prefer the fish pfp. every poketuber has a chibi pfp.
2:30
✨️jUsT LiKe i diD bAcK iN hIgH sChOoL✨️
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I love them
Was that Charles entertainment cheese a TheRussianBadger reference
Next time you can just sell the candies you earned from the catch combos, usually gives you more than enough money.
That’s what I was doing for most of my time but if you’re hunting special spawns without catching them you don’t get candies and you use a bunch of lures lol
@@Thumbus ahhh, that makes sense 💡
Today i just got a shiny dragonite while looking for a shiny farfetch’d
I found a random shiny with out the shiny charm and without a catch combo it just showed up it was in mount moon and I think I was champion
If you see a run animation you gotta run first so you don’t lose your combo
R the eevee and pikachu games good ?
I found and failed a random full odds shiny Magmar in my first playthrough of lets go
An easier way to get money is to sell the candy you get from sending all the Pokémon you catch to the professor jsyk
Ayooooo new vid, W
What a well made video by such a handsome boy 😊❤
Let’s goooo
18:57 you can't be trusted after that comment 💍🍬
I tried getting a bulbasaur with the chain method.... 1k bulbs later I gave up. Took me 2 days of green farts
NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT
If I have a combo and don’t catch the next pokemon in the first throw I run away so I don’t lose the combo
let an expert explain how catch combos work..
proceeds to tell everyone incorrectly
Took me 21 hours to find one shiny nidoran
How's Toronto?
You mad this way harder on yourself than you needed to.
My big bros first shiny in let's go was a Caterpie
When I was hunting shiny caterpie in Pokemon let’s go pikachu it took me a catch combo of 35 to find it. Sorry!
Hi Thumbus
Hello
@@Thumbus Thanks for saying hello back,
If you sell the candies you get from the Pokemon you catch you fan get back enough money quickly
I’m trying to find a shiny male nidoran I’ve caught so much normals my switch is BURNING HOT I need to find thAT POKEMON
Its so crazy how my current hunt for the passed 4 months was staryu to & i still haven't caught my 2nd one.... Im over 1,134 smh
