my first shiny in this game was the static alpha rapidash in the first area. i had just started the game the day before, and i was just running around exploring when i heard the noise, turned around, and saw a massive blue horse. i couldn't even throw pokeballs at alphas yet, so the only option was to sneak up behind it and chuck my level 16 quilava at its back, so that it is stunned the first turn of the battle and i get one chance to throw a pokeball at it. had to soft reset for ages before i caught it lol. but then i had a level 50 shiny alpha rapidash for the beginning of the game haha.
@@dustind5941 why on Earth do you think this is a lie? It’s a perfectly reasonably scenario and I think you should honestly come down from that weird position of assuming that every incredible story must be a lie - makes for a real boring life 🥱
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer thanks for saying that, that’s such a weird take from them. not that i need to prove to internet strangers my anecdotes from playing the game, but i literally have this rapidash and also the video capture i took when i was trying to catch it, like why would i lie haha.
No problem dude, I’ve hidden his comment and any further activity from him on the channel - what a weird dude 🤦🏼♂️ Some people are unfortunately entrenched nowadays in believing that everything they see online has to be fake 😅 Don’t get me wrong, some things are but certain people take it to the extreme and I think he’s one of them, I caught him saying it to other people in the comments of this video too.
Lmao good spot, I actually remember this small clip, I’m sure I wrote ‘lol’ to pop up on screen above their heads for a split second during it, they were really mad 😂
I love the idea of completing and filling the first ever pokedex, because honestly I absolutely adore filling my pokedex. And the shiny hunting in this game is just also really cool with the outbreaks (but i myself dont have the patience), so like mad respect to you for obtaining so many shinies in only 50 hours
Thanks dude I massively appreciate that 😄 I loved that aspect of Arceus too, made you feel like you were really paving the way for the future versions of Pokemon didn’t it! Shinies wise they are somewhat common, so if you ever feel like giving it a go I’m sure you’ll find a good amount 😎 That’s mainly why I wanted to make the video, cause I knew there’d be a tonne come the end of my hunting
Perfecting the dex feels like something you do in the offhand while shiny hunting rather than something to focus on for anything other than a challenge.
I absolutely love your videos man, you've been doing amazing things, I've just now done another you could say marathon of all the videos and love coming back to them, truly, not only the quality of the videos themselfes but also just the interaction you feel with you trough the videos, from hearing about you getting married, trough the unfortunate tragedy of your Dog, may it Rest in Piece still, it all just makes us as viewers feel more included, and more as an actual community rather than assets, thank you for what you do, and how you do it, even with only a handful of videos on here, you're surely one of my favorites youtubers, I hope you continue to do great things, and hopefully get the subs and views you really deserve, you're awesome man
I cannot say thank you enough for this comment 🥹 It is truly lovely to hear how much you’ve enjoyed the videos and I’m just super grateful for all of your support! Comments like this always blow my mind, because this is how I felt about creators I used to watch before I made the channel, so to think that I’ve made even one person feel like that too, is pretty awesome 🤩 I’ve got plenty of ideas for upcoming videos so hopefully you’ll have more to watch soon but yeah, just thank you so so so so much for taking the time to watch and comment this, it’s awesome to hear 😄
I Thank You for everything you've done with these videos, taking time out of your day to give us content, great content, content to really help even in the hardest of days, these videos make me and probably many others feel better too, I can't wait to see you grow, as a person and channel, and I'm certainly gonna watch many more years, I can't wait for every new video, I wish you the best, truly, creators like you make this App worth it again, all the love man, genuinely, keep doing what you're doing, because what you're doing is awesome!
I remember wanting to finish the story to start shiny hunting and while going up a mountain I found my first shiny at full odds. It was an Alpha Shiny Golem. This game got addicting instantly. Great video man ! I enjoyed every bit of it 💯
Thanks for coming back to watch another vid 😄 I agree! Such a fun game to play and I just keep coming back to it which says it all really 😅 Me too, the jingle is an amazing, amazing feature, and really helps anyone with a visual impairment too - SV should’ve just left it in as it’s easy enough to find shinies anyway 🤷🏼♂️
i *love* this analysis . legends arceus really is an incredible game !! loved seeing your numbers and statistics and hearing your opinions on the methods ! and , of course , it was wonderful seeing the shinies . the alpha steelix and arcanine are insane . wonderful job !
Thank you so much! I’m really glad to hear that you enjoyed the video and I totally agree, it’s awesome 🤩 I enjoyed putting this one together as someone who’s played the game A LOT but also plays it in a casual manner, I.e no soft resetting or permutation hunts - it’s nice to review it as it was designed to be played 😄
I once went for a massive mass outbreak to hunt ghostly and 3 consecutive shiny ghostly appears. Was having a perfect Pokédex on ghostly and without shiny charm.
Great video! It's so refreshing seeing people still playing my favorite pokemon game to this day. I'm trying to finish my living shiny alpha dex... with gender differences, regional forms, everything.
Thanks so much 😄 Glad you enjoyed and wow, that is quite the goal to achieve, but it sounds like you’re well on your way to completing it! Good luck with your hunting ✨🥳
Yeah that absolutely checks out, shinies are much more rare in Pokemon SwSh compared to Legends Arceus! This video was all about seeing just how good shiny hunting in this game is, and I think my 85 shinies proves that it’s amazing 😄
Bro, i played through the game twice, had like 400 hours in the game and used it only for masuda method hunting cause through both of my playthroughs i got only 1 shiny, and also a one that i didn't want at all
Thank you so much! 😄 I’m not sure if you need to defeat it but for me, just watching all the alphas spawn and then returning to Jubilife, before then returning back to the area worked! That’s how I found Rhyperior 🥳
That sounds like a good method too for sure! The trouble I had with this video was that I needed to compare them in a fair and mathematical way almost, so I had to throw out soft resets and really only use them in the way that they’re intended, if that makes sense 😄
When I do massive mass outbreaks I always save in front of Mai, have her reveal the MMOs, take a picture of them and then reset so I don’t need to spend money on berries or time searching the MMOs that I don’t wanna do
That’s a great idea! I just purposely avoided that kind of stuff to try and judge each section fairly if that makes sense? I thought it might be difficult to ‘cheat’ the system while still reviewing each method fairly, but I would absolutely encourage people to do things like you have to really boost your returns 😄
I’ll be honest dude, it’s a 50/50 atm, I work full time and I’m struggling to balance YT and that right now, but if I can manage it then yes I will eventually get it done (I hope! 🤞🏻)
If anyone want a big challenge for rare shiny pokemon on legends Arceus try distortion hunting now that is extra difficult and very patient wise I got a shiny original sneasel after 4 months of hunting in distortions lol, nice video btw
Thank you so much! I agree they are TOUGH, and the only reason I didn’t include them was because they’d have blown the 50 hour format out of the window - I’d have been extremely lucky to find one in 10 hours so I figured they were an outlier and not fair to rank against the others! Congrats on your distortion find 🥳
Thanks but it’s not really my style. I like to tell the story of how my adventures go, or to challenge myself and record the journey, as opposed to reaction content. There’s nothing wrong with it but it’s just not my cup of tea creatively, glad you enjoyed the video anyway!
I HAVE NO FRIENDS THAT PLAY POKÉMON SO I'M JUST GONNA POST THIS HERE- BUT I'M PLAYING THROUGH LEGENDS ARCEUS FOR THE FIRST TIME RN AND I JUST FINISHED THE MAIN STORY AND I WAS IN THE ICELAND ABOUT TO GO CATCH UXIE AND AS I WAS ON MY WAY TO LAKE ACUITY A RANDOM ALPHA SHINY DUSKULL SPAWNED AND I CAUGHT IT NOT REALIZING IT WAS AN ALPHA AND I ONLY NOTICED WHEN I WENT TO CHECK IT'S STATS AND SAW IT HAD THE ALPHA MARK- MY LUCK FOR 2024 IS OUT GUYS

Agreed, although it’s so specific at times it feels like you’d really need to dedicate a good amount of time to it in parts!

Arceus was such a good game! I hope they keep the shiny jingle for the new one coming up, it was so useful compared to Scarlet and Violet.

this video made me revisit my shiny only PLA run and i got a shiny carnivine on my first mass outbreak!! thank you for the shiny luck
Amazing! Really glad to hear it inspired you to play again, and congrats on the shiny ✨🥳
I once went for a massive mass outbreak to hunt ghostly and 3 consecutive shiny ghostly appears. Was having a perfect Pokédex on ghostly and without shiny charm.
I was surprised to find the mass outbreaks have better shiny odd than massive mass outbreaks

Thanks so much 😄 Glad you enjoyed and wow, that is quite the goal to achieve, but it sounds like you’re well on your way to completing it! Good luck with your hunting ✨🥳
This is a very interesting way to do this. Perhaps I'll attempt this at some point. I've been hunting alphas in an unorthodox method.
Thanks dude! Good luck if you do try it, I was mainly interested in comparing how all of the methods work - what was your method for hunting alphas??
6:47 am I the only one who’s pretty sure that’s a shiny luxio? It probably would’ve sparkled but maybe he was to far away from it to sparkle
50 hours? I spent 72 hours and only get 2 shiny in pokemon sword

shiny hunting in legends is WAYYYY easier than any of the other mainstream pokemon games.
I spent 150 hours and got 35
@@TaxCollector89Not with the rare spawns tho and neither with distortions those are peak difficult
Does the meathod if defeating an alpha, going to jubilife and coming back to spawn a shiny one still work?Also loved the video 😀
Thank you so much! 😄 I’m not sure if you need to defeat it but for me, just watching all the alphas spawn and then returning to Jubilife, before then returning back to the area worked! That’s how I found Rhyperior 🥳
Massive mass outbreaks have personally gave me more shiny’s by just flying to all the MMA’s and then resetting
That sounds like a good method too for sure! The trouble I had with this video was that I needed to compare them in a fair and mathematical way almost, so I had to throw out soft resets and really only use them in the way that they’re intended, if that makes sense 😄
I liked this video it was both entertaining and informative a perfect combo.
That’s so kind thank you! Really glad you enjoyed 😄

Dude, I’ve been going for 1000+ hours for a project, I don’t want to set foot in Hisui again
You’re missing out, it’s still SUPER fun!
Are you going to do a Sword & shield shiny hunt?
I’ll be honest dude, it’s a 50/50 atm, I work full time and I’m struggling to balance YT and that right now, but if I can manage it then yes I will eventually get it done (I hope! 🤞🏻)
Might be the best shiny hunting video👍
Thank you so much for watching 😄 I’m really glad you enjoyed the video and hope you’re subbed for more! 🥳
Just got a shiny Pineco in Pokemon Go watching this video! Decided to name him in your honour, but I am afraid you are only a one star xD
Lmao that sounds about right 😂 Thanks for naming it after me tho 🥳😄

@@ThisIsTheWayfarer Exactly I get it and the fact you have to wait for em is kinda annoying, thnks.
I just started a nuzlocke in Legends Arceus, 3 hours in i found a shiny alpha pichu.
Dammnn that is a good find! Congrats 🥳
Great video but I feel like showing the clips with your reaction would be cool to see instead of just the clips in past tense

Congrats dude! That’s fantastic 🥳🥳
Can you shiny hunt burmy and wormadam
I believe that you can yes, from the shaking trees! I definitely know of people who’ve found a shaking tree shiny, but it’s quite the rarity 😊
I hated the requirements to get the shiney charm in this game.
Oh really? I quite enjoyed getting the shiny charm in this game 😄
Was checking pokemon go while watching this and got a shiny Hisuian Growlithe
Congrats! That’s a fantastic shiny to find 🥳
Hope you'll have a good day
