  • My 2nd team member pops up a little under odds, Shiny Wurmple! Pretty happy with this one as I did use a Dustox on my original Pearl save file back in the day. A little throwback to Gen 4.
    Eterna Forest is genuinely busted in these games. The encounters are fast enough with Sweet Scent/Honey but the 1/4096 plus the 2 Pokemon seen per encounter, it makes for a very easy and comfortable hunt for anyone. I'd genuinely recommend this area if you're new to shiny hunting & you want to sample full odds.
    Next up is Cranidos which I'm already hunting. Good luck to all of you hunting!

      When you hunt with an NPC, you have to take out their Pokemon as soon as possible because they can potentially kill the shiny.

  • @nathansawatzky1601
    @nathansawatzky1601 2 роки тому

    Just curious, I know the normal way to track shiny hunting is by the amount of encounters. But how long does it take on average time wise ? I understand that it vastly differs by how fast you are able to do the hunt (soft resets vs wild encounters) and how much time you are actually spending a day. But just curious as someone who is just getting into shiny hunting.

    • @Sonikks
      @Sonikks  2 роки тому +1

      The short answer is no one can tell you how long it takes. You can give yourself a rough estimate of the time by counting the encounter speed but that would assume maximum efficiency. No one hunts at that rate consistently. The average time is essentially like asking how long is a piece of string. It's so variable. I'd encourage you not to focus on time & try to just focus on the resets/encounters you're doing. Try to make shiny hunting the background task while you're watching TV, Netflix, streams etc. I truly think that's the key.
      If you're new to shiny hunting, try and focus on the fact that it's random at a 1/4096 chance per reset. You're at odds at 4,096 seen. You'll get some hunts underodds, some overodds. It's all RNG.
      (All this assuming you're hunting at full odds)
      Best of luck :)

      @@Sonikks thanks for the reply! That’s exactly what I’ve been doing. Binging your videos has been a great form of entertainment for now and encouraging haha. Is there a form of hunting you would recommend for first timer? Or are all forms created equal?

    • @Sonikks
      @Sonikks  2 роки тому

      If we're talking full odds hunts, I'd suggest Johto starters in HG/SS, Eterna Forest in D/P/Pt or even the remakes. They're just so fast and the usual gateway full odds hunts people gravitate to. A lot of really cool shinies. Something else you could potentially work with is Gen 5 double grass encounters. @YourFriedBread has a ton of videos from double grass you could look at for inspiration perhaps.
      Thanks for watching my content btw, really appreciate it.

    wouldn't be considered over odds since its 2/4096 which makes the odds 1/2048 since its double encounters?

    • @Sonikks
      @Sonikks  2 роки тому +1

      That is false and not how mathematics work. It's 1/4096, specifically 2 x 1/4096. Each Pokemon is still 1/4096. It's like doing two random encounters at once. The same way hunting across two games doesn't make it 2/4096, it's just 2 x 1/4096.
