  • @Akuma5500
    @Akuma5500 2 роки тому +154

    In the original the chance of your chain breaking was 2% with 4 tiles away and a capture. This game made it easier to chain and harder for your chain to break when in the overworld at the expense of it breaking because of RNG with the chance going up to 7%. I honestly don't think they should have made the chance to break that high because now radar hunting is more annoying than anything. I have been hunting for enough hours to make up several days and still haven't gotten to a chain of 40. I still got the shinys but its incredibly annoying when you do everything perfectly and still have that high chance of just not succeeding. I think 4% would have been a better percentage for the chain to break. More often than the originals but not as garbage as the current rate to where it's almost impossible to do.

    Hey guys one good way to think about hunting like this is that it’s basically going to give you a chain of 40 out of every 20 (on average) failed chains so maybe you could think about the shiny rates as 1/20 chains to get a shiny instead of only a 5% chance to get to a chain of 40. It made the grind much more fun and manageable for me. Hope this helps :)

    You know I was so hyped to play this remake. My girlfriend introduced me to shiny hunting in Sword and Shield. It had been years since I picked up a Pokemon title. She told how fun it was to shiny hunt in the original Diamond and Pearl. The simple fact the Shiny Charm is for the first restricted to a single method over effecting the whole game was a let down. Breeding is my preferred method, but this still a problem for a lot of hunters. It's a little harsh even though this is a remake of a classic title. At least they didn't shiny lock legendaries this time, but this is a hell of trade off for it. I really just dropped the ball on this title. I can't be the only person that feels like that.

      But honestly I stopped playing after a week and went back to SW/SH I started (1st time) just a little before SD/BP launch. I don't get why people hate SW/SH so much, I'm having a real blast, while SD/BP was just nostalgia.

    This is still way more forgiving than the originals.
    In OG Diamond & Pearl, the Radar’s chance of continuing the chain also relied on making sure you didn’t walk into a shaking patch that had any shaking patches adjacent to it OR in the same row or column. There was still that chance that the chain wouldn’t continue, but they’ve made it slightly easier in these versions that the only rule you REALLY have to stick to is the shaking patches being 4 spaces away. And the fact that it’s no longer a memory game of where the last patch was.

    I have a hard time understanding the logic behind making it harder to get legitimate shinies. like if this were a closed system and everything went along just as the developers intended, I would actually be ok with making it harder to get them, because scarcity is what makes them valuable and cool. but we live in a pokemon meta climate where hacked mons are rampant and handed out to anyone gullible and naive enough to take them, and the powers that be either don't care or simply won't take the necessary action to fix it. makes me real sad whenever I have to explain to a kid that the boxes of shiny legendaries they got from surprise trades are fake and should be released, or at least never used, and that they should never use surprise trade or trade with anyone they don't know IRL.
    so it feels weird to me when I see them taking direct, hostile action against the players who are out there on the grind to do things the right way, and it insinuates that ILCA is joining the proud tradition of ignoring the ongoing state of pokemon hacking.
