      You should grind money and buy a bunch of Abra's at the game corner. You can get a box full of them and check all at once. It is the fastest shiny you can get in Fire Red and Leaf Green

      Love your video. However, if you use wii consoles next, you'll need to use ones with the pokemon software already on it. Do to the eshop closing on 3ds wii and wii u on March 1st, 2023. So don't know if it's doable. I hope you can!! It would be sweet

      While wavebirds are actually super common for use by shiny hunters today back in 2019 we were actually the second documented shiny hunters to use the strategy. The first being TotemRotom for a shiny Miltank in Pokémon Colosseum.
      When you see it being used today it’s because of his ingenuity and our popularization!

    • @Locormus2
      @Locormus2 Рік тому

      ​​@@ProfessorRexIn what way did the GC get lucky in the end? 😅
      I mean the Sandwich is so crazy powerful. Even if you had a tool in FRLG that would get you 512 odds, it still wouldn't be as powerful as the sandwich in S/V - and that is solely because you're viewing an open world with overworld shiny spawns. Your 16 Cubes essentially constitute a single sandwich boosted spawn, but you're not seeing one, you're often times seeing a dozen or more at one moment. The single 512 spawn in FRLG (across the 16 cubes) takes so much longer (8 seconds minimum) then one simple glance.
      I liked the video and the show and tell of the set-up, but was it worthwhile and a shocking conclusion? No, not really. Sorry?

    For each set of interactions with 16 Pokémon on the GBA carts, that would be the same odds as seeing one Pokemon with Mass Outbreak Rate and Lv. 3 Sparkling Power Sandwich. I say these odds are actually closer and the GameCube setup is fast because the groupings of 5+ Pokemon on Scarlet equates to 80 interactions on the GameCubes or 5 iterations of 16 interactions.

    I'm a Shiny hunter in Pokémon GO. There are still a few of the og 151 Pokémon that I still don't have after playing every day since 2018. And it's not even the rare Pokémon. I'm still missing Oddish, bellsprout, paras, and exeggcute. It's a grind and I don't know why I do it lol. My most favorite shiny I got is a Shiny Ditto, it was an April fools day and only an hour or 2 that day ditto appeared more often. It's my prize Pokémon next to my 100%IV mewtwo I got in a lucky trade yes he is also a freaking lucky. The only thing that would make it better is if it was Shiny.

      Stuff like that. Might be worth looking over some Mr Beast titles or similar viral videos titles to help with that sort of thing. I'm no expert but I've actually seen this in the chess world where "click bait" titles that aren't super off get way more clicks that straightforward ones. Take what you hear from a random guy on the internet with a grain of salt but worth doing some research on channels with view count similar to what you want to see.

    I think it makes sense, technically since Pokemon spawn in the over world you should be running into more than 16 encounters in the time it takes to run from the 16 from the GameCubes theoretically.

  • @FrozenElite926

    It’s a product of encounters * rate/encounter. The rate for GB games being 8x what it is with a shiny sandwich means you need 8 consoles just to match the base rates. But in modern games you’ll see over a dozen spawns on screen at once, so if you allow your screen to populate you’re at 96x consoles base odds with a shiny sandwich.

    The reason the game boy player startup disc is more expensive than the hardware is bc the hardware is not region locked (so Japanese ones work) but the startup disc is.

    • @ProfessorRex
      @ProfessorRex  Рік тому

      I would still argue that more players are around than discs. Go to almost any used game store and they will have many more physical players than discs. They have stock based on what people trade in. I think most just lost their discs.

    10:50, obviously the sandwich because the GameCube just multiplies the amount of encounters, but in scarlet violet you can already see a dozen pokemon at the same time and tell if they are shiny and have the increased odds from sandwich
