Hey man, you gave me shiny luck! 7:43, I knew I had to watch a pseudo vid since almost all are dragons, ended my four and a half sandwich drought for roaring moon! As soon as the garchomp sparkled I saw my own green dragon. Love ya stuff!! ❤
Wow, your fortune was truly ludicrous throughout this quest. Especially that first encounter Metagross and full odds Bagon; absolutely mad, very well done on all of these sparkling differently-coloured pixelated virtual pets.
This is a common misconception. Square shinies in the wild in sword and shield are practically guaranteed. If you wanna learn more, go watch my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail.

What about some Legendary hunts? In their original games? Lire Suicune via Crystal, Groudon/Kyorge via Ruby/Sapphire, etc? In the older Gen games, it's always a rush to find shinies with full odds.
Double comment: On the topic of Pseudo Shiny Pokemon, I might the first ever person on the planet to hatch 2 shiny dreepy back to back! A week after the game came out! I still have both them in my Shield copy and both have the same date, just wish I had more ways to fully prove it but I FLIPPED OUTTTT!!
i accidentally got a shiny dragonite once by accident and another one which i didn’t catch this time while hunting shiny squirtle (I did NOT get that squirtle 😭😭🙏🙏)
@@eclipsio-that's so cool tbh catching a shiny which u didn't hunt for nor expecting it to appear has got be the best feeling :) hope some day u catch that 2nd random shiny dragonite again
So, little fun fact for you here, I'm pretty sure that Metagross is a static encounter. Due to static encounters using true random in SWSH, static encounters are actually NOT affected by the shiny charm (which is why mons like the regis are all full-odds hunts in that game). What that means is that your Metagross was not just a first encounter shiny, but actually a FULL-ODDS first encounter shiny... with a mark!
@@ScubaShark8857 That is incorrect. Strong spawn pokemon are generated like any normal wild spawn, and aren’t actually static pokemon. They are affected by shiny charm! You’ll know if a shiny Pokemon is a static encounter if it has star sparkles more commonly than squares! (I.e. Regis, motostoke gym Pokemon, impidimp mushrooms, etc.) In this case, this metagross will always have squares.
The thing that happened to you with Bagon ALSO happened to me with Shinx, at a chain of ZERO to boot! Only thing you gad happen differently was, i didn't get the zoom in on the trainer.
I’m actually hunting on a cartridge of said romhack with my gameboy advance sp. But most importantly Metagross is my favorite Pokémon and shiny hunting a Pokémon makes me feel more bonded too them. So being able to go through a whole Pokémon game with my favorite Pokémon as my starter especially as a shiny makes me really happy. Or at least it would if only he would just shine already 🥲
I feel like flygon deserves to be a pseudo, it has the same typing as garchomp so they could have made it a faster, less bulky garchomp, but sadly he's stuck as a pseudo pseudo legendary
Flygon is still a pseudo legendary in my heart. But the only true shiny pseudo legendaries i have are: goodra, hisuian goodra, Metagross (first sos encounter) and i could get a shiny dragapult and dragonite if i evolved my drakloak and dragonair. What surprises me is that hydrapple and kingdra aren't pseudo legendaries. I can kinda get one because its already apart of a strange evolution path.
That's my clip! I tried going for the world record of Shinies in one day using 1/200 event outbreaks (specifically Shinx because of my friends), Shiny Charm and Herba Mystica and in the same day, I ended up finding that triple Shiny spawn that day and finished catching an insane 358 of the things!! As far as I'm aware, it's the world record for one singular person. (Not a community.) The clip is there to prove the point that SV hunting isn't much of a challenge compared to the older games. A first encounter 1/200+ event outbreak overworld Shiny Beldum isn't as exciting as a 1/1366 in battle only Shiny Metagross, you know? Although for me, a Shiny is a Shiny and you cannot stop me from catching the same Shinies over and over again. 149 Sandshrew line Shinies with many various and harder methods, 1,397 Shinx and 103 Rellor with their event outbreaks as of writing. :D
How do you make your thumbnails? Which software do you use to edit the animations of the Pokemons when you catch a new one and you put it in it's silhouette?
This just aint true chief. Square shinies in the wild in Sword and Shield are common. Check out my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail to learn why.
you forgot the shiny tyranitar and hydreigon from pokemon violet and scarlet!! and the salamence from anceint scarlet :D good luck catching those i hope
Those Pokémon are not Pseudos! They are NOT part of a 3 stage evolution, and have a base stat total that is LESS than 600. Their BST is only 570, not 600.
everyone keeps saying gen 9 shiny hunting is to easy meanwhile i do sandwich buffs with my hunts and ko 60 in outbreaks and get nothing for a while it's all in luck if you have none you get nothing and most are blessed with insane luck hence the metagross encounter.
@@JFlash727 had the longest shiny drought in any games probably because i don't play as much anymore still can't believe i got 2 shiny zygardes in dynamax adventures.
Like a week ago I was completing my scarlet pokedex, since dreepy it's a Violet exclusive I transfered my dragapult from sword and breed it with a foreign ditto cuz why not, then I went afk for a bit to came back to a basket full of eggs and in my second egg i got a shiny dreepy, couldn't be happier with the son of my first dragapult of my first playtrhough of sword (sorry for bad England it's not my first language)
Wow how are this channel and comment section still so small it's absurd Anyway, that metagross also had those special rectangular sparkles, making it, if i'm not mistaken, an "ultra shiny". Not sure if that's still a thing in sword and shield, though. When the games came out, that's how it was said to work. Edit: Is it just me or is the counter for every single one LUDICROUSLY low?! Just what in the heck is going on here, sir?
Thanks for your support!! In regards to ultra shinies, or square shinies as most call them, they are common on wild encounter pokemon. I did an entire video about this, titled “Why These Shiny Pokemon are IMPOSSIBLE to Find” if you’re interested in learning more. And yeah, I got insanely lucky, and that luck hasn’t stopped for my next uploads 😭
If you're asking what the music was for Garchomp's section, that'd be Lost Kingdom from Super Mario Odyssey. If you're asking for Dragonite's section, that'd be Hoop Dance from WiiFit.
There are two ways to reset hunt - 1. Save near where the mon spawns but not exactly, then whenever you reset, the mon programmed to spawn will be there but with different values when you reach its spawn point. 2. Go to the target and KO or catch it. Then move slightly away from the spawn and save. It will respawn the next day with different values each reset so you can keep resetting at this point. Once the strong spawn mon spawns, its values are set if you save but go past it, then head back to where it is. This is why positioning is important. Never save directly on top of it, as that prevents spawning for any spawn that isn't the Swords of Justice.
i’m cooler then a shiny psudeo legendary cuz i’m subbed
Im pinning this
@@JFlash727 thanks
Me too
Oh same
Big bro! You’re WAY too cool!
single encounter marked shiny metagross has got to be the craziest find ive ever seen on youtube ngl
Plus I think it was a square sparked one witch is rarer than the normal star sparked one
FIRST ENCOUNTER METAGORSS IS ABSURD
I know right, literally one of my craziest shinies ever
WITH A MARK?!?!?!?!
he probably has shiny charm so it doesnt count
@@imyellowteeth4691 I do have the charm, but that doesn't invalidate a 1/1365 encounter on the first try. Lets be positive instead of dismissive here!
wow thanks for the spoiler man 👍
First encounter Metagross put me through an existential crisis when you initially got it.
Goomy is baby and you can't change my mind 🥺
Hey man, you gave me shiny luck!

What is crazy is that ALL of the sword/shield shinies were square sparkles which is incredibly rare to get on all of them!

I like shiny hunting, but is it wrong to get Urba Mystica in unethical ways but still hunt the Pokémon legitimately. I don’t get as crazy.

This was a really fun challenge and seeing your luck is just insane
Bro that luck with the shiny metagross is absolutely insane I’ve hunted so much in sword and shield but I’ve never gotten even close to that lucky
Currently soft resetting for a shiny beldum in Pokémon unbound. Over 5000 and still going.
Why hunt in a romhack? Honestly any shiny hunting that’s not on original hardware is a waste of time
@@scrublord9505it’s his preference

Amazing vid mate keep it up
I wish noivern was pseudo cause its shiny is so cool! Also well done for getting every shiny pseudo!😎

How do you make your thumbnails? Which software do you use to edit the animations of the Pokemons when you catch a new one and you put it in it's silhouette?
I use both Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere Pro! Lots of practice using both.
And it’s a square shine that means it’s even rare like super rare like insanely rare like up to 100,000
This just aint true chief. Square shinies in the wild in Sword and Shield are common.
Check out my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail to learn why.

holy underrated
dragonite is my absolute favorite pokemon. just wish the shiny was better lol
love this video
I like to think dragonites shiny is a reference to the dragon from Pete's dragon lol
if only it kept the same pink colour like dratini and dragonair
Good video I subbed
do you remap your controls so you can reset with one joycon?
Yeah i do! Didn't think anyone would notice. I make the y-button the home button, and the + button the capture button! I use the right joycon.
amazing video bro i also have every shiny phsudo legendary

How do you reset for the Pokémon in sword. I have tried to do a hunt there, but it doesn’t reset? Help! By the way, nice shinys!
There are two ways to reset hunt -
1. Save near where the mon spawns but not exactly, then whenever you reset, the mon programmed to spawn will be there but with different values when you reach its spawn point.
2. Go to the target and KO or catch it. Then move slightly away from the spawn and save. It will respawn the next day with different values each reset so you can keep resetting at this point.
