You can have the pokemon spawn on top of you when doing the soft reset method. So really it only saves like 2 seconds. Also soft reseting is a lot less work to do over camp method
No it doesn't work with static spawns unfortunately. I do have another video about the fastest way to soft reset static spawns which will work for lycanroc :)
When does it roll for shiny? Wondering if I can encounter it and stay where it spawns open up camp AND save right before it spawns will it be different everytime,
You can always double check the method by catching it and checking it's IVs, nature and ability, then restarting, catching it again and seeing if it is different. If it is the same over multiple attempts then it is the same and won't be shiny.
When hunting strong spawns like that don't you want to be far enough away it despawns. So when you load it and run towards it it spawns in a rolls a new one each time? I thought seeing the strong spawn like that will keep it the same roll each time?
Yes! For every strong spawn EXCEPT Virizion, Cobalion and Terrakion. They are different in the code for some reason which is why the camp method exists, which is faster. I also have a strong spawn resetting guide as well that covers shiny hunting the other strong spawn Pokemon :)
Shiny Charm doesn’t affect the Regis and the Swords of Justice. Just FYI. *Edit* - Or ANY static encounter for that matter, unfortunately. 😔 *Edit 2* - My mistake. Not “any”, MOST static encounters aren’t affected according to a dev on Twitter. Don’t quote me on that though, cause some devs aren’t even in the loop of their own games.
Unfortunately it doesn't increase the chance of a shiny, just increases how many you can do within a time frame. An hour of shiny hunting is not a lot if you think the odds on a SR hunt (with shiny charm) is 1/1365
@@josh-ix6bn Whaaattt??? How many encounters is that? I know of a few people going 20k+ for Regis. My Registeel took 100 hours at just under 8k encounters
5 seconds of my sanity is totally worth it! Cant wait to use this for spirtomb!!!
Nice! Good luck!
Now I can actually get legit shinys, I've gotten a lot of lousy hacked ones. thanks for the info!
You are most welcome!
you’ve always been able to get legit shinies you’re just incredibly lazy
this is actually big brain, time to use and abuse this when i hunt for the static spawn legends :^)
Get that bread!
I'm at ~45 to 50 hours into a Cobalion hunt with this method. With shiny charm. Pretty discouraged at this point but just gonna keep trying
Unfortunately shiny hunting can be like that :( Best of luck to you and don't give up!
I’ve been at this for a little over a year with a shiny charm and still no luck unfortunately ):
@@SirOddity05 it took me just over 80 hours I believe, but it did finally shine!!! Dont give up you got this

2 seconds per reset over 4000 resets (Roughly the odds of this shiny) is over 2 hours!
@Metalfear4 that number is subjective due to it all being rng, it becomes more worth it the longer you hunt
Would this work with other spawns that pop up, like a Lycanroc on Challenge Road?
No it doesn't work with static spawns unfortunately. I do have another video about the fastest way to soft reset static spawns which will work for lycanroc :)
@@Metalfear4 I'll look into that thank you for responding
@@williamorrissey No worries mate!
Good video man, extremely helpful :)
Thanks!

Shiny charm does not affect the Regis but it DOES affect the Swords of Justice and static encounters :)
Does the shiny charm work for swords of justice
???
@shinybeyblade9075 from what I've heard it does. It doesn't work on the Regis tho
I was watching this video and got shiny Virizion lmao!
Also thanks for the guide!❤️
@@mattivatti-6781 Yo nice mate!!! Haha thank you!
How do I know I’m not encountering the same one each time?
To test it you can catch the Pokemon and check its IVs and nature. If they are different then they are different every time :)
Thanks my G
You're welcome mate!
Is there any way to use this method for suicune
The only way to hunt Suicune in Sword/Shield is through Dynamax Adventures, so no, you can't use the camp method for that.
@@Metalfear4 darn
I'll try it on other stuff like g moltres
@@TheImpalerPrince877 Won't work there either, just spiritomb, cobalion, virizion and terrakion
@@Metalfear4 k
What are the odds
If you have the shiny charm it is 1/1365, if you do not it is 1/4096 :)
I'm doing the camp method on cobalion
Good luck mate!!
@@Metalfear4 I'm R3sh1200 on twitch I sometimes go in your stream
@@dominicabbs2439 Hey Resh!!
So this really works?!?
I hope it does because I've got 1200 encounters using this method
Yes it does!!
Too bad it doesn’t work for the regis
Haha I wish!
Can I keep Autosave or not in Camp Method ?
Its generally not a good idea to have auto-save on for shiny hunting
Been at this for like an hour maybe more and nothing

I’m kinda late but can you save the game Inbetween the camp method?
Yep!
