So funny how this thing can make it suddenly go from snowing to raining in the winter! Major congrats on the Tornadus - a hunt that's a perfect example of how genius the 5th gen UI is for letting you register anything
Admittedly I do find it tough to distinguish the regular and shiny as I never invested to hunt them before. I guess it probably is the shiny being lighter or darker vs the original
I think they're quite different, the regular one is purple and is considerably brighter, whereas the shiny's tail and all the spots on its body are a totally different color (a navy blue), but I think because the 2D sprites are much smaller, the differences don't pop as much but in the 3D models they're very distinct looking to me.
I LOVE THIS SHINY- the navy bluish color is super nice compared to the purple for me. Congrats! You're definitely my favorite shiny hunter; you're so dedicated to your hunts, and it's honestly amazing. Once again, congratulations!! 💜💚💜
Mr. KrustyKrust As Juan stated, it’s a Dream Team Quest! It’s a shiny hunting challenge where you choose 6 of your favorite shinies to gather for your team as you play through the game, and by the time you face the Elite Four, you’ll have a team of rad shinies! In my case, I’ve selected Oshawott, Lilligant, Cofarigus, Galvantula, Mienshao, and Hydreigon as the team I hope to gather, but so far I’ve just got Oshawott 😅
Good luck buddy wish I could shiny hunt I never have the patience I start it and do about 500 or so resets and get tired of it lol ive only found 3 shines in almost 17 years of playing (since fire red came out)
Dudddee, nice! Been watching you on and off over the years and it’s always neat seeing hunts on these ds Pokémon games. Major congrats on the tornadus, love the therian form^^
I'm glad this hunt was a quick one for you after how long Thundurus took. Congrats on the shiny! Personally the weather trio aren't my favourite, but I can definitely get behind a shiny hunter getting their target, I'm a big fan of that!
Congrats on shiny Tornadus!!! I plan on hunting for Thundurus in my DTQ for White when I ever start it, so I look forward to that day. Also I remember playing a randomizor for White and I battled a NPC who had Ice Burn on one of their pokemon, so that was when I found out some B2W2 things were still coded into W1B1
After those crazy long roamer resets in 3rd/4th gen, seeing how straightforward this one is made me feel relieved for you lol. I thought everything was shiny locked in Gen 5, interesting the cloudy bois are not
Congrats on the nice shiny and a quick hunt. I hunted this last year in June and got it near the end of August after 23,774 SRs and caught it in a Nest Ball which was kinda annoying 😅 One thing I always found strange was that it uses Thundurus' cry when in the Route 7 encounter.
Congrats on your shiny genie man Steve! Love this method of hunting these Pokémon, want to implement this method into either this hunt or gen 5 fossils someday.
I actually really like these shinies, for some reason. Black and White were such underrated games... makes me want to shiny hunt in them again (to be honest I have terrible luck with the starters, and I really want a shiny Snivy or Tepig). Good luck with shiny Landerus! (pardon my awful spelling XD)
Congrats on another amazing shiny! I actually succesfully hunted the Weather genies last year, but all three in USUM (static encounters) and not filmed. So I guess it doesn't count? ;-)
So cool!!!! I got this one last July, and I’ve been *unsuccessfully* hunting Thunderous.... since last July 😂😪 it just takes so long, and I’ve done 6600 encounters. Not a main hunt for me, just one on the side. Still under odds so I can’t be mad but STILL
These shinies are probably the most difficult to obtain in Gen 5 imo. Even by RNGing them. Congrats on a very well earned shiny tornadus, Sonikks! Edit:spelling
Thank you. Not sure I agree though. Do you mean in the Unova dex? Even then, I don't think it's true. Zorua, Zoroark & Larvesta are egg exclusive. The genies have a very annoying jump-through-hoop setup of getting one registered in the dex before hunting it (for efficiency) but it's not too bad with the Dream Radar.
This is the same guy who watched the Sinjoh Ruins cutscene over 28,000 times to complete his trio. He's on another plane of existence when it comes to patience.
I’m trying to shiny hunt for tornadus as well. It’s my favorite out of the 3 🧞♂️. I’m trying to catch mine in a safari ball cuz I think it would look good with the colors. I hope u have amazing shiny luck for the next shinies u get, and I pray I’ll get mine cuz it’s been 6 months going into tornadus
Oh so thats how you shiny hunt these. I actually wasnt sure on how it worked before and hadnt risked it until i could find a definitive answer. Also i think people dont like them mainly because they look very similar and are essentially colour swaps with slight differences in design. Yet people still hate Vanillite for being unoriginal well look at these 3
It isn't and this would make the hunt a lot more tedious as you'd have to encounter it every time instead before softresetting. So it's possible but without the help of the Pokedex it just takes a lot longer.
These shinies have no business being so boring considering it's so hard to get em 😭 why would they do this. Thundurus is the only sorta good one imo, and that's only in its base form.
That would have been tragic if your screen got stuck on scrolling and you couldn’t exit out of it 😂 still though, very interesting roaming shiny hunting mechanic. All you have to do is just check the Pokédex to see if a shiny was encountered or not. I don’t know how that works but okay 😂

I’m thinking of hunting thundurus in white. Do you think it’s worth hunting.

Same thing here it winter in the game I playing pokemon white
Another addition to the "is this a shiny? I cannot tell..." club haha
Really? This shiny is so obvious to me.
Admittedly I do find it tough to distinguish the regular and shiny as I never invested to hunt them before. I guess it probably is the shiny being lighter or darker vs the original
I think they're quite different, the regular one is purple and is considerably brighter, whereas the shiny's tail and all the spots on its body are a totally different color (a navy blue), but I think because the 2D sprites are much smaller, the differences don't pop as much but in the 3D models they're very distinct looking to me.
Huge congrats! Looking forward to more gen 5 hunts

Might not be navy blue, I just can't think of the color lmao
Plowing through the roamers lol. Can’t wait to try out this hunt for Thunderus after I wrap up my DTQ!... maybe in a year or two 😅
DTQ?

A quick shiny hunt is such a good feeling
I’m about to start my BW2 double hunt of latias and Kyurem today :)
Good luck

@@bankshot4192 I did end up finding shiny latias XD
Congrats! ✨
Congrats on this! I’m planning on doing Landorus soon!
Dudddee, nice! Been watching you on and off over the years and it’s always neat seeing hunts on these ds Pokémon games. Major congrats on the tornadus, love the therian form^^
Congrats! It was super surreal to see this roaming on stream, can't believe you've done this so many times in the roamer quest! ✨
I'm glad this hunt was a quick one for you after how long Thundurus took. Congrats on the shiny! Personally the weather trio aren't my favourite, but I can definitely get behind a shiny hunter getting their target, I'm a big fan of that!
Therian Tornadus has a really cool cry. Congrats on the shiny!

Only reshiram, zekrom and the event pkmn are locked. So luckily you can still hunt everything else
Congrats man! Another great one under the belt. I'll get a copy of black and white one day and play through it!

Congrats.. I got my torchic in ORAS one step closer to my DTQ up next tailow
I already did the dream radar to set up this hunt for when I reset my black and white copy and play through those again. Such a cool hunt
Congrats good luck with your future hunts
I like how because of the scroll it sounds like a victory chime when you get it, congrats
The method itself looks really fun, love it
Congrats on this underrated shiny man. Tornadus is my favorite of the 3. 😁
Congrats on your shiny genie man Steve! Love this method of hunting these Pokémon, want to implement this method into either this hunt or gen 5 fossils someday.
CONGRATS!!!
Congrats on the shiny roamer! I've been working on Thundurus for a while so I'm a bit jealous haha
Good looking underated shiny
Congrats on the awesome shiny steve, keep it up!

Congrats Sonikks!
The best thing about such shiny hunts is that you can’t fail catching it. That’s what I’m most scared of when finding a shiny legendary.
imagen coming out not a house just to see a shiny nakid man riding a clowd
excellent hunt once again, youre really getting the most tedious ones recently :)
i love your vids man, and this is really cool because pokemon Black is my favorite!
Nice dude congrats on another roamer, I actually just got shiny Entei on soulsilver a few hours only 468 encounters
Congrats!
I love this therian forme more than any of the others
Congrats mate
Congrats on another amazing shiny! I actually succesfully hunted the Weather genies last year, but all three in USUM (static encounters) and not filmed. So I guess it doesn't count? ;-)
Anybody else notice how in the cutscene you hear thundurus’ cry instead?
Congrantalations!!🎉🎉❤️❤️
Congrats:)
Congratulations! I'm shiny hunting Snivy in pokemon Black
So cool!!!! I got this one last July, and I’ve been *unsuccessfully* hunting Thunderous.... since last July 😂😪 it just takes so long, and I’ve done 6600 encounters. Not a main hunt for me, just one on the side. Still under odds so I can’t be mad but STILL
Memories of U-Turn/Hurricane Tornadus-T running rampant in Gen 5 rain teams
Politoed was to be feared!
congrats for the shiny dude
I see why people don’t like em, but I think the genies are really cool!
Congrats on the hunt (:
These shinies are probably the most difficult to obtain in Gen 5 imo.
Even by RNGing them.
Congrats on a very well earned shiny tornadus, Sonikks!

Well bummer. I already watched that cut screen and i didnt know about this. I guess i just catch normal form. 😅
7:20 I totally agree man, I just really dislike the 3D sprites, they did them dirty imo
Good thing you got it way before the 8000 odds, the cutscene is time consuming.
This is the same guy who watched the Sinjoh Ruins cutscene over 28,000 times to complete his trio. He's on another plane of existence when it comes to patience.
Congrats love ur vids big fan
Planning to do Thundurus for White DTQ, might take a while being stuck at Litwick.
What is the music playing at the end screen ? I love it.
Also congrats on the shiny !
I’m trying to shiny hunt for tornadus as well. It’s my favorite out of the 3 🧞♂️. I’m trying to catch mine in a safari ball cuz I think it would look good with the colors.
I hope u have amazing shiny luck for the next shinies u get, and I pray I’ll get mine cuz it’s been 6 months going into tornadus
OMG i'm hunting him too xD but i'm only on 200 SR's cuz i get shiny terrakion yersteday about 8891 SR's
Congrats on Terrakion!!
@@SkunkunkSocial thanks 😄
Nice! Such a unique hunt. Seems like it'd be a challenge but I wouldn't mind trying this one day
Nice Shiny :)
Wish he was available shiny in the dream radar.
Epic
I hope my Tornadus is nice and fast too, when I get round to hunting it. 11 months for Thundurus was quite something....
Congrats! Although tbh it's probably one of the worst Shinies of the Genie trio! ✨
With Thunderous being the best!
I did this hunt at least 5 years ago in both games to see which one I would get first. I got Tornadus and I don't think I'm gonna do it again lmao
Can’t wait for Landorus keep it up
Oh so thats how you shiny hunt these. I actually wasnt sure on how it worked before and hadnt risked it until i could find a definitive answer. Also i think people dont like them mainly because they look very similar and are essentially colour swaps with slight differences in design.

GENIAL FINALLY
That rain looks lowkey painful
Great shiny will do the genies too after i finish my gen 5 dtq
Nice
I’m at almost a year of gen three hunts I think this is proof I should expand to gen 5
Congrats! Doing the same hunt and I'm at 2585 Srs
Are you gonna start landorus?
Personally they look like really neat hunts!
Question do you have to have one registered? Can you still do the hunt without one registered?
Do you need to have tornadus registered before you hunt or can you check the dex after the cutscene? If I do need it, where can I get one?
Therian forme is so much better than the regular form
Heyyy I’m doing Thundurus now, got the Tornadus last year in about 4400 or so
pog
Hi, do you know if Togepi you get in Heartgold & Soulsilver can be shiny?
Shiny locks didn't exist until gen 5. HGSS is gen 4.
@Masonio trades are shiny locked in gen 4 from what I know however, eggs are not
was watching thus video and got a gen 2 starter shiny totodile!!
why use max potion instead of full restore? :(
I don't understand Japanese
Hey I just found out that I had a fake Pokémon game that shouldn’t affect shiny hunting will it?
Hola como estas? , quería saber si podes subir una guía de pokemon vega?
let’s go sonikks
Oh nice
nice
is ir possible to check the dex without catching tornadus before
It isn't and this would make the hunt a lot more tedious as you'd have to encounter it every time instead before softresetting. So it's possible but without the help of the Pokedex it just takes a lot longer.
I see, I only asked cause I only got One copy of black. Thanks
Can't you see if you spawned a shiny if you haven't seen a regular one already?
I know this is months ago but no you have to register it
I wonder if this works for roamers in bdsp
It does not. You need to track them down.
nice!
Can you Synchronize their nature?
I think so
You seem like a person that will have a shiny roamer and forget about it for a few months until you restart hunting
Wait so you absolutely HAVE TO have had a tornadus before shiny hunting? It's not just to help you tell the difference?!?
You need the dex entries.
@@Sonikks Thank you. Well shit. I've just been wasting my time. :/
Bruh where’s the Colosseum showcase 😡😂
I have a video idea. You could show us all your shiny Pokémon in Pokémon home then go through how tough some of the hunts were
These shinies have no business being so boring considering it's so hard to get em 😭 why would they do this. Thundurus is the only sorta good one imo, and that's only in its base form.
👍
