That was actually a Greninja in disguise on your window, he was the secret last dark type statue you needed to make the underground yield a shiny. Very rare occurrence.
There is absolutely no doubt, Window Frog was definitely some sort of guardian of shiny hunting. You were blessed by his presence, praise be to Window Frog
"The type that uses False Swipe and Spore on a level 3 Pokemon" What about Harvest Skill Swap from Exeggutor, while also Tricking a Leppa Berry onto it, and using specifically a Parasect to prevent self-destruction? I don't have a problem shush
@@Twinklethefox9022 i think it would help if from all shinies, while in battle, occasionally sparkled. Kinda like how in Pokemon Go, stars emit from them while you're looking at their summary.
i thought it was adorable that in the overworld before the encounter he looked so happy to see you and was just running to you, so of course he's a speedy boy as a companion!!
"this thing almost definitely has perish song" *scrolls right past taunt* so glad the sphealinder made it into a video btw. look how happy he is to be there
How fitting that Absol should appear in your Shining Pearl file. I haven't encountered any shinies in the underground yet, but I hope to do so... There are so many Pokemon I want to collect, and I love the method involved in underground hunting.
My first (and only) shiny in Brilliant Diamond is Buizel. I caught her using the pokeredar and named her Lemilion because Buizel's shiny colors remind me of him. :)
"absol used curse" sorry it demonitized your video :( do you think that girl with a wingull is intimated by your sick bike moves? congrats on the shiny!!
congrats on the absol!! glad to see i wasn't the only one who spent hours digging for statues only to discover they don't have any effect until post-national dex haha. i've had to change the final two targets on my brilliant diamond DTQ because of it. i am also glad to see i'm not the only one who sometimes falls asleep while hunting... :)
I don’t understand why I’m not getting notifications for your channel, I’ve only found this video because it came up on recommended. Congrats on the shiny✨
@@thequinnimator4092 I just meant in relation to the most recently released Pokemon title(s) where/when Absol is available. It seems to almost be a tradition for Matt to shiny hunt an Absol (if available) in each new game shortly after they are released ie. Crown Tundra DLC & BDSP. I suppose the using the term "new" to describe BDSP in relation to its release may have been a bit of a stretch, however XD.
Congrats on the shiny Absol, so cool to get it before you even started the hunt proper! Great video, too, as always - great information and loved getting to see the shiny luck frog.
omg i was binging ur old videos (the ones that are literally from a decade ago LOL) and staying up playing shining pearl for the first time in months wondering when you might drop another vid….. it seems my prayers have been answered
Much like Santa Claus, the Window Frog only visits shiny hunters when they've been good. If you listen closely and if you truly believe, you may even hear him hopping.
hey matt, I saw this video recently about the odds of encountering mirage island by a new channel called "Goppier" and I thought... this would be the rarest shiny hunt ever a shiny wynaut on mirage island. what a feat that would be
Absol, I used to think Shiny Hunting was for weirdos and dorks, but thanks to you I've seen otherwise. you inspired me to shiny hunt Rayquaza so I could legitimately earn a Pokémon an ex-bestie gave me for my birthday, and I did in around 100-120 resets! I don't think I would've done this if it wasn't for your vids, perhaps I would have but I'd rather owe it all to you! =D It allowed me to find my second full odds shiny EVER!
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon yeah! I even caught it in the Quick Ball. It was so hype! It and The Raticate are very meaningful to me. I wonder if I’ll get any more?
I've got a nice tip to anyone who shiny hunts by hatching eggs. Go to Cycling Road near Eterna City there if you move one tile forward with the bike it counts as two steps. I hatched a shiny Girafarig there that I'm going to transfer to Voilet once the game comes out and once it has Home support.
Congrats on the shiny absol, absol! The frog on your window came to tell you that something good will happen, unlike absol, which tells you when something bad will happen
Why am I getting 2 unskippable 20 second child ads on this vid? xD Anyhoo, love your content Absol. Keep it going with your weird humour, I can tell you at least one person's laughing at your jokes.
Ok so if I'm gonna finally get my shiny shaymin, I'm gonna have to start by getting a frog. I raise moths irl as a hobby, so is that good enough? I can't find any frogs.
The secret base feature made me a bit sad. Yeah the statutes are cool and all but I miss having that cute plastic furniture. Also this game must have hated me because I never found I shiny in this game yet. And I hope the window frog comes back
Honestly, there should've been a week 1 buff on statues. I only got to the third badge because it was so unfun working for hours to get statues...only to notice hardly any change. It's even worse for shiny statues. IIRC, a single shiny statue only increases the chance of getting a shiny by...1. A single point. Really? SOS chaining cuts the shiny odds from 1/4096 to 1/1024. Masuda method lowers it to 1/500. Yeah, I don't think increasing the odds per statue by a single point is worth the vast amount of effort.

Hey man, I was the guy that met you at Sonic. It was awesome to meet you! Keep the sick videos coming!
That definitely made my night!!! By crazy coincidence, the last time someone recognized me was at that same Sonic back in November! Thank you
Congrats Matt! Love to see it just showing up during test encounters! Just as Absol shows up before disasters, window frogs show up before shinies
the frog should be called the "herald of shinies"
"The type that uses False Swipe and Spore on a level 3 Pokemon"
What about Harvest Skill Swap from Exeggutor, while also Tricking a Leppa Berry onto it, and using specifically a Parasect to prevent self-destruction?
I don't have a problem shush
gotta take extra caution with those lv. 2 Explosion Pidgey
I mean, like what if that togepi was shiny and I missed the sparkles?????
@@cloudfinraptor yeah some shines you can barely tell
You know you don't have to do that right? I've gotten, like, 20+ shinies from SOS chaining without ever using the old method.
@@Twinklethefox9022 i think it would help if from all shinies, while in battle, occasionally sparkled. Kinda like how in Pokemon Go, stars emit from them while you're looking at their summary.
I love that it was the only Absol to run up to you as well like “it’s me, I’m the shiny, come here”
Window frog my beloved :) congrats on the shiny absol and can't wait for more of the wondertrade gauntlet!
It's adorable how Matt gives a lil acceptance speech for the shiny Absol omg
I find your videos so cozy. They have this friendly and welcoming vibe. Keep up the awesome work!
That frog sure knows what quality content is
congrats, shiny absol is absolutely beautiful. such a underrated shiny in my opinion
i thought it was adorable that in the overworld before the encounter he looked so happy to see you and was just running to you, so of course he's a speedy boy as a companion!!

legitimately forgot my Absol had that

Wait really? I thought I was doing something wrong
@@Twinklethefox9022 yeah apparently statues have absolutely no effect until you've beaten the game! bit of a shame really
Adamant shiny absol from the underground!! What a freakin dream Dude! Congratulations!
Wow! Would have never expected you to be the type that would pursue an Absol but neat find! Congrats!
I like how you add an ounce of charm to each shiny you find. Keep up the great work!
thank you window frog 🙏
Also great work on the thumbnail as usual
I don’t understand why I’m not getting notifications for your channel, I’ve only found this video because it came up on recommended. Congrats on the shiny✨
Thank you! Yeah, UA-cam is weird about that sometimes.
i love the effect of the duplicated screens zooming out whenever you talk about pokemon being the same!
Even though you have shiny Absol in other games (i would assume), this is literally the boyhood dream come true.
Congrats Matt! Wouldn't be a new game release without a new shiny Absol!
NEW??
BDSP came out in November. That ain't new.

Congratulations Matt my guy !!!!! and absolutely shiny absol is just total perfection such an amazing underrated shiny in my opinion
In shining pearl movie you said you wanted to hunt absol someday in the underground and here it is
That frog was secretly Arceus. Congrats on getting the shiny Absol! 😄
omg i was binging ur old videos (the ones that are literally from a decade ago LOL) and staying up playing shining pearl for the first time in months wondering when you might drop another vid….. it seems my prayers have been answered
Dang Absol, you've finally fulfilled your life-long dream!
great video matt!! i managed to get a shiny absol on accident while trying to catch one for a false swipe user .. my partner named her spanky lol
frost spotted...
@@krv3 SAMURAI SPOTTED
So glad you got this shiny! I just got a Ralts myself in gen 3, I love your base btw haha
Much like Santa Claus, the Window Frog only visits shiny hunters when they've been good. If you listen closely and if you truly believe, you may even hear him hopping.
Congratulations!🎉✨
Love the Frogger PS1 soundtrack
Congratulations!
the greninja was a statue and you got your mascot im still hunting Kyurem for my mascot also im in ur twitch streams im LeafyTheFuecocoGod
window frogs presence has blessed you.
congrats! I'll go underground too after I get this silcoon for my badge quest
Always a grand time when you upload!
Noted, if I ever see a frog on my window I try and shiny hunt something rare
Pitch Black tried so hard with the crits because he knew you were about to replace him
Let’s Goooo!! Congrats Absol!
Liked the usage of Frogger He's Back! music, I don't hear that everyday
Proud of you for playing extremely safe against that Shinx. Optimal. Not using Taunt was making me scared though lol.
hey matt, I saw this video recently about the odds of encountering mirage island by a new channel called "Goppier" and I thought... this would be the rarest shiny hunt ever
a shiny wynaut on mirage island. what a feat that would be
Congratulations
Matt - you should do a video showing off your shinies , and if you have Pokémon Home, then maybe you could show that off too :]
the window frog luck, love it

grats!!! that's so awesome to hear
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon yeah! I even caught it in the Quick Ball. It was so hype! It and The Raticate are very meaningful to me. I wonder if I’ll get any more?
Gorgeous shiny. Nice find!
Matt is the one shiny hunting UA-camr who frequently touches grass, respect
3:40
he now exists, only in my memory
I was the frog. You’re welcome 🐸
window frog wasn't the frog we needed, but the frog we deserved
Big Congrats Absol! Btw Politoads are shiny luck charms haha.
Great job Absol and keep up the great work and I’m going to try and hunt in my shining pearl
Congrats

heck yeah boi
Congrats on the shiny absol, absol! The frog on your window came to tell you that something good will happen, unlike absol, which tells you when something bad will happen
I hope that frog is a regular guest from now on
As much as I love the wonderful Roark Roll. He's definitely more of a window frog in my heart.
So cool you got an underground shiny!
blessed window frog content
Congrats! I still have to get me a grand underground shiny, hoping to get a Mudkip maybe
Last week I was hunting for a shiny teacup also, and a shiny Araquanid ran into me.
Absol shiny hunts for Absol.
What a gorgeous shiny. I need one now. I still haven't got a shiny in bdsp
Why am I getting 2 unskippable 20 second child ads on this vid? xD
Anyhoo, love your content Absol. Keep it going with your weird humour, I can tell you at least one person's laughing at your jokes.
Matt, when will you be streaming the wonder trade gauntlet? I'd love to drop by!
I've been streaming it a couple times a week!
When we needed him most... he vanished.
Window frog 😔
You gotta do another absol solo movie in one of the newer gens
I got a shiny in the grand underground
*it went boom*
bro why was that garchomp statue in a jar..
😳
I knew it would happen!
Ok so if I'm gonna finally get my shiny shaymin, I'm gonna have to start by getting a frog. I raise moths irl as a hobby, so is that good enough? I can't find any frogs.
6 min ago, nice absol!
Nice dog
1000th like!
The FROG 🐸
The secret base feature made me a bit sad. Yeah the statutes are cool and all but I miss having that cute plastic furniture. Also this game must have hated me because I never found I shiny in this game yet.
And I hope the window frog comes back
I'm jealous I wish I had window frogs >:I
Kinda sad you didn't name it after Window Frog, but oh well
I was honestly expecting a backrooms edit when the camera fell
I was so close to saying "the Grand Underground, the backrooms of Sinnoh" in the intro lol

the new sword and sheild update looks pretty different
That frog story was vey ribbeting.
This isn't a full odds hunt. Window frog can manipulate rng.
Hey absol are you exited for ash greninja returning this week?
Today I got shiny darkri after 5 resets!
window frog footage real
WOW! The frog brings the luck. Maybe next time try to catch the frog in a jar so you will have luck forever
i wish i could hunt my favorite pokemon but its swadloon:(
Bro i always wondered how you so many old Nintendo consoles
I grew up with many of them and started collecting them like 9 years ago
Congratulations! Next time you shoulf taunt the absol to prevent perish song
FUCK YAH NEW VIDEO
