I don't mind doing filling the dex; it's always a goal in each game for me. I wasn't happy my living dex residing in HOME didn't count towards the requirements for shiny Meloetta, but I'm nearly done getting the new dexes completed and it kinda gave me another reason to explore every area in the game again.
This feels like a better modern interpretation for shiny hunting mythical events than the old distribution stuff. Available permanently, but a prize for people who 100% the game
I'm currently working on my living dex in HOME, I only need a total of six Pokemon to complete it, all Mythicals: Deoxys, Diancie, Hoopa, Volcanion, Magearna and Marshadow. So I am very excited for this event. I already got Shiny Melloetta, and I'm eagerly waiting for the next. I have completed all my Pokedexes in the app so I'm ready. 😂😂😂
You're way ahead of me! I'm gonna start doing the same for the other ones after I'm done with this! Might even try to do it for older games before Bank is turned off!
@@notsoAceTrainer All you have to do is catch a Pokemon in a game and transfer it to HOME so it registers a Pokemon from that game. In BDSP, I got Machamp, Golem, Gender and Alakazan by moving them to Legends: Arceus then used the Link Cable to evolve them, then move them back to BDSP which also registered them in HOME along the way. You can also do this for others, like Porygon2 in case you need that from Sword and Shield like I did. For some, like the Let's GO ones I had to be a bit more creative as you can't move them back to Let's GO if you move them to another game, so I caught extra legendaries and offered them in Trades in HOME, asking for Machamp, Golem, Gender and Alakazan from Let's GO, it took a few attempts cuz people just sent me some that could be moved there but didn't originate there, but I got them after a while. Same with Palkia from BDSP.
I had to grind _Scarlet_ and the DLCs to get it. I already had a Living Dex, but a lot were from older games. _Sword_ didn't take too long, and I was only missing 10 from Shining Pearl. I'm way behind in LGPE, though. I don't own either game, so I have to wait for them to come back at the library. All their copies are checked out. 😫
I still find it weird that some places have games available in libraries. Here in Portugal, as far as I know, it's unheard of! But anyway, the event has no limit so, you're good! 😁
@@notsoAceTrainer oh shoot, that's disappointing! I didn't have a Switch when LGPE came out, so I played my roommate's copy. If I could find them for $30 each, I'd just buy them. But every copy I see online is $40+. 😭 I don't think all American libraries would have them available, but I live near a big city.
I believe most of the outrage stems from the fact that about half or so of the playerbase has already finished a living-dex from older games, most likely pre-dating the switch. for me I'd like to take a step back see from a different point of view and say this is for on-boarding new players to use the service & I think it's good, it's not a simple handout & it's not a Location based system where you go to a game store & depending on where you live it could take from 5-10 minutes to upwards to an hour or more of travel & that's not convenient for some I should know. But with how they did it this, it's a combination of being available to everyone, simple to do but you gotta put your back in to it Overall I like this
I do prefer these types of "events" over the Regular Code Distributions Typically I keep/make a Local Living Dex Since I like the aspect of Capturing as many Unique Species as possible (Minimal Evolves/Breeding) So this "Challenge" was just a Check-in for me
Honestly for sword and shield I see it being a shiny keldeo quite like how they gave us shiny meloetta for scarlet and violet even though regular meloetta was in the dlc quite like how keldeo is in sword and shield
@notsoAceTrainer I mean, I don't see them not doing victini eventually, I mean we've gotten keldeo and meloetta in the last 2 new generations dlcs likely we'll get victini in the generation 10 games dlc with the shiny version as a reward for completing all of the games 3 pokedex's, though not guaranteed it's still likely
unpopular opinion. I don't like that mythical pokemon and legendary pokemon can be shiny. I personally think they should remain shiny locked as having shiny forms doesn't make sense for me. This Meloetta event sounds annoying to get. A full Scarlet and Violet living dex with pokemon that have to be from from the game itself.
It doesn't have to be a _living_ dex, it just has to come from the game in order to register it. I don't even own Scarlet or Violet (or a premium subscription to HOME), yet I already have over 200 of the Pokemon registered in the Paldea dex.
@@JamiePokemonTrainer Do you know what a "living dex" is? A living dex is when you have one of every Pokemon in a box, so you _physically have_ every single Pokemon in the dex. You _don't_ need to do that. You can trade for a Pokemon, then trade it or transfer it out and it will still be registered towards the dex even if you no longer have it in HOME. Like I said, _I don't have Scarlet or Violet_ and yet just by trading around I've been able to fill out quite a lot of the Scarlet and Violet dex. You can even trade for a Pokemon (like Bagon for example) from Paldea, transfer it to Sword or Shield, evolve it, and then transfer it back to HOME, and that will count for both its evolutions since all it checks for is its game of origin. I've gotten the full evolution line registered by doing this method. It can be annoying finding ones that are actually _from_ the correct game (because HOME doesn't have a filter for that, so you have to rely on the "games it can transfer to" filter instead) but it still possible to do without a living dex.
Pokémon has various timelines and Legendary + Mythical aren't always one of a kind. Therefore, if there's a timeline/universe with things like Paradox Pokémon or Ultra Beasts, there's likely one or more with Shiny Pokémon. It makes all the sense as it is backed up by Pokémon's approach to lore since Gen6! 😁(despite them shiny locking a bunch after introducing the multiverse) The event is fun, btw! You should try it!
@@notsoAceTrainer having to catch and transfer one of every species for all three pokedexes in order to get a shiny mythical doesn't sound like fun. It sounds like a chore and unnecessary work for a shiny of a pokemon that shouldn't even have a shiny form in the first place. And i got a regular Meloetta from the terrium too.
Sorry Ace, You know I don't care about shiny. Meloetta makes no exception. Especially when pokedex on Home need to be filled... You gonna have to do without me on that one, Game Freak! Cheers
I know the shinies aren't for everyone, but that's the good part - even if you decide you want it in like 5 years, as long as HOME still exists, you can get it. And all you need is a phone! The switch and games do help, but that's all you technically need!
@@notsoAceTrainer You do realize I never gonna do that, right ? I admit they go the extra miles for that particular "event" though and that should indeed be what we should aim more about shiny mythical giveaway. Still, I pass! Spoiler: I do need me a good new pokemon journey, I confess...

I feel the same way! First I was frustrated but now I'm actually having fun exploring and catching!
I agree. If they won't let us hunt them in game, this is a decent alternative.
It really is! 😁
This feels like a better modern interpretation for shiny hunting mythical events than the old distribution stuff. Available permanently, but a prize for people who 100% the game
my picks:
Lets Go: Shiny Mew
SwSh: Keldeo
BDSP: Deoxys
Arceus: Manaphy
Keldeo makes all the sense and it completely passed me by 😅

You can get Magearna right now by scanning a code for ultra sun/moon

Overall I like this
If that's the reason for the outrage, it makes even less sense... but oh well, it's impossible to make everyone happy and that isn't a bad thing!
Still, it's a shame and sad that it took a data breach and giant leak before Pokemon agreed to release mythicals and shiny locked.
This event was VERY LIKELY planned before that. It's crazy how people thing both things are connected 😂
I do prefer these types of "events" over the Regular Code Distributions
Typically I keep/make a Local Living Dex
Since I like the aspect of Capturing as many Unique Species as possible (Minimal Evolves/Breeding)
So this "Challenge" was just a Check-in for me
Perfect! I still got a little bit to go!
First time here. I loved your hair ☺️
Welcome and thank you! 😁
Honestly for sword and shield I see it being a shiny keldeo quite like how they gave us shiny meloetta for scarlet and violet even though regular meloetta was in the dlc quite like how keldeo is in sword and shield
Keldeo is perfect indeed! My pick is 100% not the best!
@notsoAceTrainer I mean, I don't see them not doing victini eventually, I mean we've gotten keldeo and meloetta in the last 2 new generations dlcs likely we'll get victini in the generation 10 games dlc with the shiny version as a reward for completing all of the games 3 pokedex's, though not guaranteed it's still likely
Pokémon Go shiny Victini
I think they'll skip GO, but if they don't, it's an option!
If another one comes by........ just to say i do have 2 shiny meloettas and i got first one on the day they announced it and the morning of the second
Good job! I'm still finishing up for mine!

@@lasercraft32 actually it does because you need the entire evolution lines in order to register every pokemon.

letsgo mew - bdsp jirachi - pla manaphy - sword and shield victiny
Victini
On stream, my community suggested manaphy as well, but for BDSP instead of PLA!

You know I don't care about shiny. Meloetta makes no exception. Especially when pokedex on Home need to be filled...
You gonna have to do without me on that one, Game Freak!

See? That's why completing the dex is good, it's been a fun journey so far! 😂
