good luck man, i've been doing this challenge for on and off for 5 years (anniversary is next month for first shiny) when I have some free time and the crazy part is my first shiny for the challenge was also a feebas, got in in usum using SOS method. Right now im only at 230 shinies, but I'd say its good progress for somebody who doesn't do it consistenty. Just wanted to say good luck, and I'll be sure to keep track.
I started this challenge around 2 year ago and I'm up to 930 shinies including gender forms and other forms. I'm at 725ish out of 1017 for shiny species.
@@averagetectonicplateenjoyer well you obviously haven't seen the Johnstone video about this. Even if you used a bot that ALWAYS encountered a different pattern of spinda and encountered and caught that new spinda pattern every second of every day, and somehow always had unlimited balls and unlimited storage space it would take over 130 years. And that's not even including the shinies, that's just for regular ones. So I would need two bots constantly cheating for 70 years each. But since I'm getting all of my Pokemon legitimately this is literally an impossible task to complete in a lifetime. Again nice troll, best of luck to you if you decide to waste your life on that project.
GL bro! I started this in 2016 with Pokemon X, I'm at 960/1046 right now. This is truly the atomic bomb of all things Pokemon!! Again best of luck! I will go on to get all non-regional forms perhaps, and I include all previous events for shinys (Diancie, Genesect, Zeraora, etc.). 1046! Gotta catch em all!
If you’ve heard of Bird Keeper Toby he has this challenge but a more intense version called the Ghost Star Challenge within his Master Pokédex challenge. It’s basically doing the master dex all over again but shiny. It’s called the ghost star because you’ll likely be dead before finishing
Glad I found you in my recommended! I'll be watching your progress in this challenge now and I wish you the best of luck! I'm currently doing a challenge in my Pokemon Home that I can comfortably say nobody has ever gone for, and part of that is going for a Shiny Living Dex as well! Part of the twist on that is I have to get every shiny from its original game (for example my shiny Venusaur has to come from Virtual Console Red/Blue/Yellow. I am about 20-25% done with the Shiny Living Dex at this point and I'm always fascinated to see other people go for it as well. I wish you the best of luck!
I'm in the "Pokemon GO shinies don't count" camp. I send some to Pokemon HOME, but I never transfer them to any game. It feels wrong. I really like your vibe, subscribed!
if i had a good way to record my phone, i mightve added them. but theyre sooo easy to get, and in home they get a big fat "G" labelled on them and it doesnt look nice. and thank you!!
Currently I'm working on a regular living dex, but at some point in the future I do see myself attempting to do a shining living dex as well. I'll be fun to watch the progress over time.
Finally an interesting series I'll actually be able to keep up with good luck man (also I'll be hunting alongside you just bout to get 2 feebases... febasi? if I catch u live I WILL BE TREATING THIS AS A RACE)
I just started a shiny living dex for the gen 2 games on the 3DS VC, my plan atm is to RE a shiny ditto (eventually) and hatch what i can with the 1/64 odds :p not a full odds dex but it’ll be “legit”
Oh hell yeah!! I just started my shiny living dex quest as well! I’m not going super hardcore so including my Pokémon go shinies I’m at 53% complete!! Good luck homie!
im doing a shiny living dex also but every pokemon is from their respective regions since pokemon home records the region data. I think it makes me use a bunch of different methods in different games so it'll be fun. Im currently done with kalos and halfway done with alola. atb for ur sld tho
Wow this is just insane, hope you can complete this horrifying task. Now I might have just found your channel today, but could you name Minior "Gem" please and thank you
“This could take months or years.” Dude, if you’re actually serious about this and pour all the free time you have into it, a year from now you’ll be lucky to be a tenth of the way there. I don’t even know if you did the math in your head before starting this lol
“You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could that you didn’t stop to think if you should.”

that is insane. hope you finish it!
if your counting gender forms maybe consider getting every spinoritta form
@@averagetectonicplateenjoyer Do you mean every form of Spinda? if so it's literally impossible so no thanks, nice troll though.
@@COscott13 not impossible you might need to use a bot or something to automate it but its still possible

Dude!!! I just saw this in my recommended and I always hype up shiny living dex!!! Good luck!!

the atom bomb changed the world alright. just not for the better.

Oh boy, this seems hard! Sure hope you have good luck with DAs and don’t do several times over odds for getting one shiny from them!
Currently I'm working on a regular living dex, but at some point in the future I do see myself attempting to do a shining living dex as well. I'll be fun to watch the progress over time.
Just subbed! Be sure to name a shiny cat pokemon Datcat!
Best of luck!! I’m working on this too, gonna take a while but it’s such a fun journey!!
thank you! how close are you?
your so underated this is great
thanks! i appreciate the comment!
What makes me even more excited is without knowing, I started the same challenge about 2 weeks ago too!
we're racing! 👀
@ArmourTV12 Oh I’m slowly making progress! I would like to somehow also share it online
Nice Video. After two years Im at 226 unique shines so far but with the current state of the games I might draw the line at gen 9
I started in 2018 and have around 200. Been doing it on and off, never fully committed. Now, im actually serious about completing this challenge 😂
Best of luck to you! This will not be an easy task.
IM HERE FOR THE RIDE! Id love to be named after Galarian Zigzagoon!
you got it, thanks!
I started this challenge about a month ago, too! I probably won’t finish, or get even close, but I’m curious as to how far I’ll get!
by the time you finish one game, there'll be 2 more to complete.
I have started my shiny living dex but im trying to catch every pokemon from its earliest game they are obtainable in and it sucks. Good luck my dude!
omg this is hype i gotta be around for dunsparce
Finally an interesting series I'll actually be able to keep up with good luck man (also I'll be hunting alongside you just bout to get 2 feebases... febasi? if I catch u live I WILL BE TREATING THIS AS A RACE)

@@creamthephoenix in a crazy world, the insane are the wisest among us.

You got it! I gotta start writing these down 😅
Started early this year and currently at 239

I'm so sorry for you when new games come out
Lets go

Good luck! Bagsy naming the Shaymin after me!!!
Manaphy....
impressive sure but you aim to low better try for every form of spinoritta if you want a true challenge
“This could take months or years.”
Dude, if you’re actually serious about this and pour all the free time you have into it, a year from now you’ll be lucky to be a tenth of the way there. I don’t even know if you did the math in your head before starting this lol
Ive been going on and off for 5 years and im only two tenths there 😂
