[LIVE] Shiny Piplup after 3,511 resets in Brilliant Diamond + 1 uncatchable Starly
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Shiny Piplup appears shortly before odds and just the one uncatchable Starly! You really can't complain at that at all. I started hunting this on release day and it decided to shine a little under two weeks later. I'm really happy to be able to play the new games with a shiny starter. I can't tell you how much I disliked Sword and Shield for locking the starters. This is justice.
I was choosing batches of 10 and then moving on to the next starter. I've never hunted like that before and it was really fun and absolutely kept the hunt fresh.
Next up is something in Eterna Forest which sounds super busted with 2 encounters with 1/4096 odds. Excited!
Thanks for watching my videos!

At 1:46 “there is a normal piplup” after just sending out turtwig 🤣 comedy gold
Wdym it's a piplup
What's a "turtwig"? I only see a Piplup
@@Phantowl no guys its a chimchar clearly
@@Veching ah yes got the types mixed up
Bruh, i thought it was an Alomomola
You were truly destined to get Piplup!!! That normal Piplup at the beginning and the Starly appearing on a Piplup reset really set it in stone. Alternating like that is super fun - I personally had a blast hunting all 3 kanto starters at the same time in FR/LG this year to see which one would shine first.
GL in Eterna!
Yea the piplup at the start was definitely destined to be the shiny
That green piplup man gets me everytime
The green one is my favourite form of Piplup
Here's a tip for anyone who is still hunting their starter (like me lol): If you lower the ingame volume in the settings (background music, sound effects, pokemon cries), for some reason the cut scene is ever so slightly faster. Also if you turn off battle animations, it cancels out the animation of your avatar throwing out the pokeball. In total this saves about 1 second per reset. That doesnt seem like a lot but in the grand scheme of things, if you go all the way to full odds, this will save you 4096 seconds in total. Congrats on the shiny Sonikks and good luck to anyone else still on the hunt for theirs!
I’m still going for Piplup and it’s been 3 days already lol
Still hunting
@@omegangel3368 Since release of BDSP???
@@colindiwa oh gawd no. I bought the game nearly 2 weeks ago.
@@colindiwa I FINALLY GOT IT!!! 🙏🐧✨
May 23rd i started the hunt!
Alternating is a sick way to hunt starters (especially if you can’t decide which one you wanna hunt)
I wanted too but I liked fire monke best
That’s why I like the HG/SS starter hunt.
Alternating cuts your odds by 66% you have the 1/8000 chance of it being shiny on top of the 1/3 chance you pick the one that is shiny
No, that isn't true. The shiny is generated or not when you press A after confirming selection. The odds are 1/4096 too.
@@Sonikks So all starters share the same shiny pool?? That's awesome
Finally got around to watching this, and I'm glad I did XD It took me around over 1300 encounters to find my shiny Piplup. Glad you found yours; I think the only issue I had was the waiting for the loading screen... it seems to take about half a minute or so for that screen to load, and sometimes you'll get the crashing issue you mentioned.
I love when you get really hyped up with the shinies you get (12:19), it's so wholesome :) Congrats on the Piplup, Steve
I got my shiny piplup 2 days ago!!! And it's calm nature aswell! I swear to God! That's insane, I got mine on the 2nd I believe:)) so same aswell. That's incredible :) been watching you for 2 years now, you're amazing :) keep it up!
Amazing!
Gratz on the Piplup!! I did full odds random encounters in SwSh similarly to how you hunted these starters! Of course SwSh had overworld spawns gallore, but I’d do 40 encounters of one target (for 40/4,096 or roughly under “1%”), move to another target and do 40, etc. It really did make it more fun to wonder which of the targets would shine being as Wild Area spawns changed each day per the weather!
I’ll be doing the Pokemon League today, then afterward I plan on starting the shiny roaming Cresselia hunt in the upcoming days. I’ve never had a game where I could hunt roamers, and since seeing your roamer quests, I’ve wanted to for a long time! Thanks for all the shiny hunting content-it’s really motivating!! 👊🏼
1:47 My favorite Pokemon.... Piplup!
Why am I like this? :)
@@Sonikks it’s just you transcending through time and knowing which one you are getting
Nothing too complicated.
@@Sonikks i mean you weren't wrong. It definitely wasn't a shiny piplup :)
i have no idea why tbh but you are definitely the shiny hunter i’m excited to watch the most. good job man!
I appreciate that!
CONGRATS STEVE mate !!!!! And best of luck to your other BD/SP hunts in the future
GG on the Shiny! Surprised they didn't remove or patch the Shiny for the uncatchable Starly! 🔐✨ 🐦
I think it’s so iconic at this point so they kept it lol
After jumping into one of your streams and seeing you alternate starters, I started doing it. So smart
When you chose the first pokemon, the turtwig, you said there is a normal piplup it's like you predicted which shiny starter you got!
Pretty sure he does the voice recordings after the hunt
I absolutely don't do the voice recordings after the hunt. I'm not sure why you'd think that. It was just a mistake.
@@Sonikks Gotcha. I just figured it would be easier to just voice over your first encounter after the hunt is over, my mistake.
Good to see you hunting in the remakes! Last Friday I caught a shiny Arceus in Platinum, so this weekend I started hunting for shiny Giratina in SP. And, to get some variation, I'm hunting for shiny Zekrom in UM and Suicune in SS. Looking at the time each reset takes, I doubt Giratina will be the first to shine...
Congrats bro! After hunting since launch I finally got my first shiny in bdsp yesterday!... except it was an uncatchable starly. Seeing you got one is giving me motivation to keep going haha.
Keep coming back for motivation on my chimchar hunt. At around 150 hours clocked in and not even starly has shined yet. Hoping it'll shine soon.
GL!
Yes I also keep coming back from my piplup hunt. I've only got 100 hours but I have seen a shiny starly. Wishing you luck on your hunt!
Congrats! Piplup is my target, nice to see it shining! Best of luck on the rest of your BDSPearl version hunts
Just got my first shiny uncatchable starly after 1416 encounters and which was my first reset today. I wasn’t as upset as I thought I would be but after all this time I’m just happy to see something shine. I’ve also reached another new milestone in my shiny hunting career so there’s that at least. Here’s hoping I’ll get my shiny piplup soon too. And congrats on the shiny.
I love hearing the pitter-patter of the keyboard every time you find a shiny, it's just so cute idk why lol
I swear the Piplup at the beginning looked different for a second I thought it was the shiny. Congrats Steve on the Shiny Pipi
YESSS finally sonikks uploaded!!! you got me back into shiny hunting and just yesterday I got my first full odds abra in the leaf green gamecorner.
If you liked doing the surprise shiny race, I’d recommend Ramanas Park for either the Regis, Latias/Latios, or the birds and dogs depending on which game. Save in front of the pedestal and keep putting the slate in each reset, it’s like a race to who shines first. It was awesome I did it with Latias and Latios and plan to do it for the dogs to! Awesome piplup though! I’m hunting them the same way you did with alternating starters
I'm currently going for Piplup in the original Diamond! Started a hunt for it a while back, and I dropped it soon after due to lack of motivation and getting an uncatchable Starly myself, but everyone going for the starters in the remakes has given me the will back to start it up again. Congrats on yours!
Did you get it by now?
im alternating my choice per reset on japanese ruby right now! glad you got the piplup under odds. Good luck on the next!
well kinda under odds, I forgot about the starly haha
Congrats Steve!! Perseverance always pays off, and this was definitely a shiny that's worth it 💕
Yes Steve you're right I had 2 game chrashes today while hunting it's kinda scary Congrats on shining penguin =) still hunting Chimchar here since day 1
The reason the game crashes cause you spam a threw the landing screens
@@colbyt4719 100% true
The man is back! So happy for you that you got the shiny pengwing! I went for shiny monke and gladly didn't get the shiny starly in the process lol
Poggg Congrats Steve! I've yet to find my starter (found a stinky brown birb tho) but i finished some older hunts like HGSS Togepi Egg(crazy stuff) and Sandyghast SR'S so that's nice.
Awesome 😎 Very cool shiny, I just had to go for chimchar since i always wanted one back on the original release.
Piplup is looking fantastic
Congrats on getting your Piplup!
I'm dreading the amount of shiny starly I might see going through with my hunt going up to 1500+ for my chimchar D :
Im sorry that it took so long. I got a shiny chimchar on 1202. Actually I was hunting for piplup but did 1 chimchar for fun and got it. Congrats to your Piplup
It wasn't actully that long
Dude what wouldn't that freak you out
Congrats on best starter! Good luck on the Budew!!
It's crazy how it's already 2021 and there's still such a thing as an uncatchable shiny (like Starly).
I got the shaymin yesterday and I’m doing a challenge where if I catch a shiny (none from trades) I buy that as a plush (shiny if possible)
Shaymin is shiny locked though isn't it?
any recommendation on where to buy them plushies?
@@akiras6354 maybe online.
@@ShadyRK9 nope
@@ShadyRK9 no but shaymin isn’t released yet I think
Steve: "And there is a normal Piplup."
Turtwig: "Am I a joke to you?"
Huge congrats dude! Cannot wait to jump aboard the starter train. Even though these are 1/4096 shinies, the hunt still proves to be challenging!
Looking forward to your extended roamer quest!!
yeah if u go full odds its like 130+ hours so....just a little challenging
As if they left in uncatchable shinies....what trolls. Maybe it was to balance the starters not being locked anymore...Can't give us everything we want ;)
Great hunt I think the alternating shiny technique is really fun to watch!
Congrats!
And Calm nature it's so good, Empoleon it's a special attacker and has a lot of special defense, so it's a win win situation
Congrats! Good luck on future bdsp hunts!
That Shellos at the end: I'm in danger.
Seeing shiny Starly... I feel your pain. I fell pray to this little brat myself last week. I'm still hunting my Piplup.
Super late with this comment but congrats on the Shiny Piplup! I'm actually in the middle of doing a Shiny Run of Brilliant Diamond myself! I got my starter to shine on New Years' Eve and I LOST my mind at the fact that I got it that day and in only 50 SRs!! Since then, I got a Shiny Wurmple in Eterna Forest that's now a Dustox and my Turtwig is now a Grotle. I'm looking forward to seeing what else I come across for my playthrough~ ^w^
I also wish you the best of luck in your Shiny Run in BD too! There's some pretty cool shinies in Gen 4 out there, so plenty of potential targets to choose from!
I FINALLY GOT MINES! I started my hunt May 23rd and got it today June 12th
My man Sonikks really has an Empoleon already just after the first gym 🤣 damn all that grinding
*turtwig appears*
and here is a normal piplup
Nice man, put about 110 resets but got bored, might resume this hunt
Oww I love piplup!!
I want a shiny piplup too ♥️
Congrats man! :) GL on Eterna Forest!!
Nice one Sonikks. I started my shiny hunt for chimchar, the Sunday after the release date and still going on. Hopefully I’ll get shiny chimchar by the end of the year or January since I know that the Manaphy event ends in February 21 2022.
Worst case you can get the egg on a different profile to trade to your main profile so it hatches to your main. I get the worry too, I’m almost to odds on Piplup and worry sometimes that I will be hunting until February too.
*clicks Turtwig*
*sends Turtwig into battle* "And there's a normal Piplup...that isn't shiny." That's a weird looking Piplup, Steve 🤔
Nice, congrats! Piplup was my original first hunt in BDSP, but I skipped the starters because I saw how quick REs were. Might go back for it some day. Got my Shiny Shinx instead
Hunting this right now. 800 so far... And to those who are struggling with this... Remember it could always be the original 1 in 8000.... Those are fun haha.
did u get yours yet? im at 1890 rn
@@reokagro I did after roughly 2000 sr.... Then promptly lost it a month later when my switch was destroyed... And because I didn't have a memory card or cloud back up I've lost it and will have to get it again eventually.... Hahaha. *Physically in pain
Very noice and heres dat badge of honor for the uncatchble starly lol
Also thanks for inspiring me with these videos
I recently got a capture card and am currently recording myself hunt for regirock :D
congrats. sincerely. but seeing all these shiny starters is so disheartening lol. I'm a seasoned full odds hunter but this one is pushing me to my limits. I'm only at 800 in the time i normally would have done like 7k.. i cant go to 3k on this one like you did i think i might actually give up and just not play this game before i do that as I'm not interested in playing w/o my full odds team.. as you can see its been very rough for me lmao I've never hated a hunt this much there's no reason we shouldn't be able to save in front of the dumb briefcase.
update, still havent got it
@@Cainb23
Update ?
Awesome!!! I'm at 2220 resets for my turtwig rn
This gives me hope thanks I’ve actually lost count at this point
congrats! looking forward to the fire red dtq
Congatz! Finally got my shiny palkia after 7665 SR!
Great job as always. Just got the game and I've never shiny hunted using the radar. Cant wait try it out.
This is my first time full odds hunting so far i've gotten, full odds mareep, full odds dialga and full odds registeel
Im really scared I either skipped oer a shiny piplup or the lightning was weird because during the evening the lighting gets weird
It's super noticeable, don't worry. GL if you're still hunting!
Gratz dude! Still searching for mine- I hope he looks as good as yours when I get him : )
Congrats! I’m hunting for shiny giratina, btw have you had any crashes hunting this? My game’s crashed 6 times in about 3k resets
About the same dude yeah. I think I had about 15 or so in 3,511 resets. GL on Jelly Tina!
I heard the crashes have to do with spamming the A button or something.
I could be wrong, but that's so stupid and needs to be fixed 🙄
Nice vid, Sonikks
So nice, congrats!
Planning to hunt this in platinum to avoid uncatchable ones :')
I am doing chimchar , I am over 6 days and one un catchable starly so far ! After I got my starly I turned my game off and played hgss to ev train I got a shiny psyduck in 15 encounters mostly
I was questioning when you would post your first bdsp vid. And here it is! Grats on the piplup!
P.S. you have more roamers with the launch of this game lol.
pain
Congrats on the Piplup!!!
Yo Sonikks, from being inspired by your hunts I went and did a hunt you’ve previously done Masuda methoding a shiny Phione and got it in 339 eggs!
congrats!
Nice job Steve!
and there's is a normal piplup that looks slightly green with some leaves on his head. 😃
Last time i was here my counter for Turtwig was on 1500... now im back here with a counter of 3350 :(
btw. gz for the Piplub :)
Im at 4200+ ....
I GOT IT RIGHT NOW :D 5931
I got it at 16738!
@@lars4360 Lets goooo 🙏🏻👏
Heeeey Pearl Guy is back 😎👌 congrats buddy I'm near odds for drifloon
Congrats on shiny Piplup!
Still hunting it myself, really hoping to get it soon
i both love and hate that they shiny unlocked everything.
No way, congrats! I am resetting for my own Piplup as we speak even tho I can´t be bothered to count my resets (quite a shame I know). And yes, the defaulting to "No" is quite annoying :c
I’m hunting for turtwig but I don’t have a lot of time to hunt due to work, master’s classes, and a baby on the way. lol. I’m sure I’ll get it eventually
Hey sonikks I’m a big fan of your hunts. I’m currently doing my first shiny hunt with rayquaza in bdsp. Please wish me luck
Good luck!
Gz Steve!! I just got my shiny Turtwig yesterday, lost count in the end but it's somewhere around 3150 with 90 hours played lmao. No Starly either which is nice.
Congrats!
congratz on a beautiful shiny
Congrats I’m still hunting mine I’m at 2,075 srs it looks amazing also rip starly
Awesome! I’ve been going for my shiny starter too mate
Good luck!
Amazing. I was alternating mine and also got piplup… after 3 starly. Rough start
I also alternated for my shiny starter. I got Piplup as well in 383 resets RNJesus was smile down on me
Glad to hear other games crash as well😅 I was getting worried
Same nature as my shiny piplup! 🤣 yeah wasn't to happy about the nature lol
Kind of wish I shiny hunted my Piplup but there’s always a second play through that I might do for a mono steel run. Congrats tho!
I actually really love shiny empoleon, idk why i love how it becomes brighter. Also when ti follows you ot naruto run so thats pretty cool
Got my shiny spiritomb couple months back. Took over 6800 resets but it was worth it
Anytips on how to keep up with your amount of SR? Im estimating im around 210 so far beings ive done at least 7hrs and can only squeeze 30 SR a hr
Don't focus on time. It's pointless. Keep going until it shines, simple. The odds are 1/4096. Distract yourself with streams, Netflix etc. Do what you usually do but shiny hunting as well.
I decided to hunt shiny chimchar which is my first ever shiny hunt and I have new respect for shiny hunters.
congratz! hunting my turtwig for a week now, hope I get it soon
i got 3 shiny starly and after 120 ingame hours i finally was able to start the game with my shiny piplup
Nice I skipped shiny hunting the starters but did get a shiny palkia and plan to do dialga next
Congrats! ✨
congrats on your shiny turtplup
Congrat'z !
