I remember starting my shiny hunting journey haha. It all started in Sinnoh when I saw a player walking around with a shiny arcanine. I whispered him and nothing XDDD. Then I saw him some time later and he actually responded to my fanboying. This motivated me to shiny hunt for a growlith on rt 7 in Kanto, where I got 3 shiny houndooms before finding my growlith. All in the same day XD. and yes, without donator. Noob luck is real!!!
Found a shiny Abra on my second encounter when I was only trying to catch one to use normally, he teleported away T_T the pain is real. I spend hours trying to find another before I gave up.
Straight to the point I liked the video because how honest you are. Never hear UA-camrs tell ppl to dislike their video if it wasn’t helpful 😂had to like the video after that
The very first versions literally had the Yen symbols, dunno about the the others. It's also very common that many rpg SP games just use Yen as their currency.
I've been hunting shiny trapinch for the past week. Sweet scent max, Leppas, occasionally teleport to closest pc for close to 10 hours a day, it's been dry as the desert im shunting in 😂 Elden ring has been calling my name 😮
One thing to note is if you become a shiny hunter some hordes will require leppas for time efficiency. It takes about 3,000 leppa berries to get 30k encounters and that still doesn't even guaranteed a shiny.
I started a couple days ago I used this guide after I got surf I prepared myself for the grind and went to grimer 5x spot I got it in 20 mins I used sweet sent maybe 15 times 😂and bam... Thanks man I appreciate it
Any advice for single encounter farming so I can try for a legendary at the same time? I’m assuming it’s not too complicated but really wanna be as efficient as possible! Will check out some other vids in the meantime, thanks!
I killed a shiny by mistake in my first 4 hours of pokemmo trying to lower its health only had a couple balls , only been playing a few days at that point , and i keep hearing about how rare they are.. im sad.
Not sure what you mean by "halt". The game itself doesn't track how many encounters you get and reward you with a shiny after 30K encounters. So you can shiny hunt whenever you please, the tracking is just to give you an idea for how long you've been doing it for.
The only reason I say yes is because it's not wild counters so you lose that chance. Doesn't mean you can't randomly encounter one during story mode though.
So I have been doing shiny meowth hunt for quite a time(since January 10th)now but didn't got one I have had 31k encounters so I am thinking I am doing something wrong, I do shiny hunting after doing the gym reruns and when I get bored I do payday I have been trying to say that does our encounters resets after doing other stuffs?
Really hard to explain probability and statistics via UA-cam comment especially since I don't know your level of math but here it goes. Firstly, let us assume the chance of a shiny is 1 in 100 and we're single encounter hunting for simplicity, and now let's approach this in reverse. You have a 99% chance to not encounter a shiny. The chance you not encounter a shiny twice in a row is 0.99*0.99 The chance you lose three times in a row is 0.99 *0.99 *0.99. The chance you lose 100 times in a row is 0.99 times itself 100 times. That comes to ~0.37. So, if your chance to not encounter a shiny 100 in a row is 37%, your chance to encounter a shiny at some point in your hunt is 63%. Now extrapolate that knowledge with the 1/30K chances. There are people pushing over 100K encounters and have yet to get a shiny, don't worry too much about the probability just keep grinding. tl;dr: Pokemmo doesn't track your encounters, so you can do a gym rerun and come back to hunting and nothing would be affected. To increase your chances of finding a shiny, grind a lot.
What do you do if you find a shiny in a horde? How do you catch it? Obviously throw pokeballs but do you just throw and hope you dont die to the horde?
you cant throw pokeballs until you clear out the other pokemon in the horde, so you have to have SOME sort of single target move to kill them and then spam pokeballs, OR use false swipe and spore to help catch but BE CAREFUL, USING FALSE SWIPE AGAINST A SHINY WITH, DOUBLE EDGE, TAKE DOWN or some other recoil move could cause it to KO itself. Understand what your going against and do a test run.
The horde amount and species depend on which location your at in game, learning all the locations can be take a LONG time and youll still never remember most off of memory.

That is crazy. I'm here after an hour to make sure I'm doing my shiny hunt the right way.

Watching this to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong 😆 Great vid as always, Pat
Awesome vid for a beginner like me. Short, simple, straight to the point
Thanks Pat! I always thought shinies don't exist!
I've never seen one
They're in every pokemon game my guys
i was struck when he said 20 million poke yen lol
Bro 😂
it does look like the yen sign tho xd
I'm pretty sure it was called poke yen in some old generation games.
@@rafaelgoncalvesdias7459no, it’s always been pokedollars

where do you hunt him in hoen?
@@branuchihagamingchanel9466 it's been as dry as the desert im shunting in. ;D
buy an abra with syncronise and the nature you wish your shiny pkmn to have
munna and natu also have this talent and are cheaper
Listening casually through the video:"yeah we buy this and this and we so far spent 20 milloon pokeyen"
Me: wait pat did what and how fast?

A great sweet Sweet Scent mon is Tropius it can learn fly, and be a great HM slave.
I've always love tropius as a kid because he looks so cool

so sorry to hear this :( GL on your next hunt!
do you think changing sweet scent pp per horde to 4 would be op? so you can use 8x sweet scent per heal
yes, i see no reason to just make it easier for no benefit.
What encounter counter do you use, and whats the best one rn?

Genuine question
Does doing gym reruns or pay days and other stuffs halt our shiny hunting progress?
Please answer man👉👈

Hey thanks man I got my first shiny (not meowth but ponyta).
You were the reason I didn't quit 😭
So much thanks 👍
Which encounter counter do you have specifically? The one with the shuckle
its a custom theme for gilans encounter made by tnums, linked in this video description: ua-cam.com/video/xyqwimADJS0/v-deo.html

@@patrouski my 🐐 thanks friend!
How were you able to surf without having the required Pokemon in the party? Sorry new to the game, thanks for the video!
Thats a great question! Its because i have a surf ocarina which lets you use HMs without needing a pokemon in your party that knows them.
@@patrouski is it obtainable?
@@surrrp0It's obtainable in the GTL or gift shop
@@surrrp0 Ocarinas can be bought on the GTL or gift shop!

What's the best spot to shiny hunt in Johto
whatif i had 3 pokemon in party with sweet scent? does it stack in the hotbar?
no it does not
@@patrouskiily
Do I need to kill the horde too? Or just encounter it and run
just encounter and run
Which is the fast pokecenter heal mod u using?
custom strings, i have an updated guide for it on my channel
Can I shiny hunt starters? Like at the beginning?
What is custom strings for?
Skips text and makes everything faster, this guide explains: ua-cam.com/video/hLn_7MA1o3U/v-deo.html
Can you have multiple Pokemon with sweet scent so you can reduce trips to a poke center?
No it will just deduct the PP by a %. You can only sweet scent a maximum of 6 times before needing to heal.
W video
In my game only appear 3 pokemon :((
