- Hello Wayfarers, this is a Shiny only challenge in Pokemon Scarlet with some additional rules thrown in. This shiny hunting video was a grind but I really enjoyed journeying through Paldea for my first time with only shiny Pokemon, and I hope you find the adventure to be as fun as I did.
*Giveaway details*
If you'd like to win all of the Shiny Pokemon that I caught during this challenge, you just need to have a copy of Pokemon Scarlet with a Nintendo Online membership, or a Pokemon Home membership, and a Discord account so that I can communicate with you while we trade, to avoid giving them away to the wrong person. To enter, please just leave a comment with a story or anecdote from one of your own Pokemon adventures, as I always love hearing about those!
If you could also like and subscribe that would be ace, but just a comment will do for the raffle. The winner will be chosen on *February 1st, 2024*, so you’ll need to comment by then to be in with a chance.
We completed all 3 storylines (Victory Road, Starfall Street & Path of Legends) for this video which is why it’s a little on the longer side for my channel, but I tried my best to trim it down into a manageable portion without sacrificing important elements. If you’re a fan of hunting for shinies in Paldea I think you’ll enjoy it either way, as I caught A LOT of shiny Pokemon in this video.

My story is short and sweet. Pokémon Sword and Shield just released, and I got my copy right away and began playing immediately. One Pokémon in particular that I was sure I would have as a main member of my team was Applin. So about an hour into the game, I'm walking through the grass just to get to the next area, and what do I encounter? My first ever encounter, full odds, shiny Applin. My thought was "wait isn't it red?" And when it flashed, I was in absolute awe. I still believe till this day that I was the first ever person in the world to find a full odds first encounter shiny Applin.
Oh wow dude you really must have been the first person to do that - that’s awesome! Thanks for sharing such a cool story 😄
You every much are
I don't give a shi dude
@@Trueno-ce6zi other people do so stop being a twat, you’re not funny
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer lmao
"It could arguably be the best Pokémon game to _ever_ be released, if it just functioned properly"
That's the most accurate description of any video game that I've ever heard, and you managed to condense it down to a single sentence.
Thanks dude, much appreciated 😄
My story comes from pokemon red, after getting the starter, I was running around the route before the league, until i found a full odds shiny nidoran male (found out bro was shiny after transfering it), which became the MVP of the run, and I still have him in pokemon home. And I try use him in every pokemon game I can (he's lv 100)
epic stuff tbh
That is an awesome story, thanks for sharing! I had no idea that Pokémon found in Red and then transferred to Bank could be shiny, so I’ve learned something new! 😄
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer I got some wrong info in there, sorry, the real thing is, It happened in a romhack called cristal clear, I still got the full ods shiny nidoran (in the park after the milktank gym leader), And was the MVP of the run, but couldn't manage to Transfer It, since it wasn't a "real" Pokémon Game. I ended Up shiny hunting for one, in lets go Pikachu, the 12 hours of pain paid off, and its an exact replica of the og, I kind of lied because, i wanted to be more *legal*, And special but now I think It shoudn't be that way, and that the thing is still unique, also in the gen 1 games, only static encounters can be shiny, because of Determined values that needs to be at a certain number for it to be shiny, this means that only the starters, legendary birds, casino Pokémon, the eevee and Mewtwo can be shiny hunted. Sorry for the fake info.
I think you're the first UA-camr I've seen who acknowledges the issues in SV for those of us with visual impairments, so thank you for bringing more attention to the issue. Let's hope Nintendo patches it in eventually. Also, congrats on your wedding!!!
As for a story, one that kind of relates to this video is from a couple of months ago. I was playing Legends Arceus, working on getting the shiny charm in that game, and over the course of three days I encountered three shiny Pokemon. The first was a shiny male combee, being the first time I caught one I felt a bit proud of finally going through that rite of passage of many pokemon fans. The next day was a shiny goomy. The day after that was a shiny wurmple that ended up evolving into a beautifly.
No problem! It’s a real shame and I hope that they do make things right someday, because as it stands there are a lot of people with a huge disadvantage, and it shouldn’t be that way 😕 Thanks so much, that really means a lot 🥹
That’s a fantastic story, thanks for sharing 😄 The shiny male combee is a rite of passage I myself went through in my PLA vid so I know the feeling 😂 A mix of joy and sorrow. The Goomy and Beautifly are two brilliant ones though! What are your plans now you have the shiny charm?
I unfortunately still do not have the shiny charm in Legends Arceus, so it's wild that I got those three shinies. I don't really have too many plans in PLA other than getting the shiny charm, but I've got a lot of things going on in other games. Currently I'm working on 100%ing Emerald which was my first Pokemon game and am almost done with the national dex. In Platinum I am doing a shiny hunt for Darkrai on New Moon Island which is my first ever full-odds shiny hunt with the old odds. Almost done with my current playthrough of Heart Gold. Once I'm done with that and with the Darkrai hunt I'm planning on making some competitive pokemon in Gen 4 for a playthrough of Battle Revolution. And I am planning on finishing some other playthroughs including White 2, Y, ORAS, and Crystal on the VC so that I can hopefully get that shiny Celebi before they cut off Pokemon Bank access.@@ThisIsTheWayfarer
My first shiny in SV was a full odds lone Fletchling that I hesitated to encounter because I thought it was just the sunset affecting the color of the Fletchling 😅 didn’t know it was a shiny until I accidentally bumped into it.
I love your vids by the way! You’ve got a fan in me!
Ooo those shiny Fletchlings are for sure difficult to spot, I barely noticed mine too! I think the time of day like you said is important too, the shading on a Pokémon’s model and stuff seems to change colour when it gets darker or lighter, and I often looked at Pokémon during the evening time and thought huh, that’s shiny, just to find that it wasn’t 😭
Thanks so much dude! Have an awesome New Year tonight 🥳
I remember not too long ago when I found my old 3ds and found all my old Pokemon from my first games I had, I found my first ever shiny (a stunfisk), my teams for omega ruby and ultra moon, and the beginnings of a Phione shiny hunt I never finished.
My story is how I lost a ghost type nuzlock to a fighting type move and it was in scarlet
So I had just entered the elite 4 and was doing well with not a single death but that changed when I fought Larry because his flamigo has scrappy. I had my goldengo out because it resists brave bird and is immune to close combat or so I thought, and unsurprisingly it used the mighty fighting move on my steel type to kill it. Shortly after I lost to Geeta due to having nothing for glimora
(Without goldengo I lost anileape to the Tera baxcalibur)
I shall tell a tale of my first shiny pokémon let me set the scene it’s the year Pokémon Ultra Sun and Moon released I got a nintendo 3ds for Christmas sure I’ve played other pokémon games before but this was the first game I owned and so I played it the minute I got it I never got spoiled on anything and I barely knew what exactly shiny hunting was I just wanted to have fun the minute I stepped in the grass after the catching tutorial I ran into a Shiny Yungoos I caught it cause it was Purple and it sparkled when I found it, Her name is Pez like the candy I love her very much
I've got a story!! Back before I beat the game and completed my pokedex I was just wandering about the mountains. As I was going a shiny Dratini popped up! I was stoked and caught her immediatly. After that I jumped down to Fury Falls and there was a shiny Kricketot! Seconds after my Dratini! I caught it and when I came out of the battle and turned around there was a shiny Venomoth just staring at me! Three in under three minutes with no charm or boosts of any kind. It was madness! I also had a gitch happen with a shiny Vaporeon that was so damn cute and I was a plushie of. It looked like she was wearing a dive ball around her middle.
Also congrats on the marriage!!!
Holy sh*t Kigichi that is an amazing story lmao, that’s the dream! Thanks so much for the story and for the wedding wishes - I really appreciate both! 😄
12:55 what I like to do, especially with the Lvl 3 Sandwhiches, is save before making one and then load the save if I don't find any shinies in the 30 min to not waste any ingredients. obviously that is a lot more worth it when you're using Herba tho
Yes great suggestion and method, especially with those level 3 ones, because Herba Mystica is a bit of a rigmarole to obtain imo! I think I just kept making them as a way to measure time for the shiny finds, and also cause the regular ingredients are pretty cheap, so it was easy to just keep making them 😄
I remember my first shiny. It was a Roselia back in Ruby version. I was excited, but never used it for some reason. Anyway I sent it to Pokemon Colosseum so I could see it in 3D. I then forgot that I had it there and let my brother start a new file, erasing my first shiny in the process.
Also, Armor Tail would've stoppes Eri's Toxicroak from using Sucker Punch. You could've attacked it without fear of a super effective blow.
Awesome video! I have been playing pokemon for a long long time but only now have i started getting interested in shiny hunting, I'm looking forward to watching more videos of yours this was dope!!
Thanks so much dude 😄 That’s kinda similar to me, I only really started shiny hunting earlier this year for the channel, but I’ve been playing since 1999-2000 ish 😄 Hope you enjoy the hunting if you start it yourself, and good luck for it too! I’m currently doing BDSP for my next vid which will take FOREVER but hopefully it’ll be worth the wait when it’s up 🥳
So glad I found this channel. I love your storytelling dude - looking forward to more!
Thanks dude really glad you enjoyed! 😄
My first shiny in Pokemon Violet was a shiny Makuhita at the mines where u fight the Orthworm. I was about to kill pack of makuhita and hariyama when I notice the shiny Makuhita I manage to stop my Gyarados in time and caught it no problem without hitting it. Coz I always scared I do crit or one hit a shiny. So I just used a powerful pokeball and that how I got it. Really nice pokemon too as Hariyama is indeed one of the strongest fighting types.
Also, my favorite leveling ground is a cave near the Psychic gym. Its packed with pokemon lv 39 includes Dugtrios, Toxitricty and Dragon types, I use both Gyarados my favorite pokemon and Bronzong now my favorite steel type that helped me grind all of my pokemon evolved and manage to catch every single pokemon in the cave. Includes Gible, Bagon, Salazzle and Umbreon. Just a really good place to grinding. I also love leveling at the False Dragon location as it lots of lv 50 pokemon and I like to grind those big whale pokemon coz they give each of my pokemon 1000 exp.
So that my tip for everyone who just wish to evolve their favorite pokemon fast as possible.
Love your videos I’m very sick right now I started just putting your videos on and listening till I fall asleep I enjoy the tricks that I’ll hopefully use myself when I start playing again
Thank you so much! I’m very glad to hear that my video helped you in some way while you’re not feeling too good right now 😊 Hope you feel much better soon and I will hopefully have some more videos for you to watch shortly (currently recording BDSP shiny only which is taking *ages*)
You're underrated. You are a very good Poketuber
Thanks so much dude, glad you enjoyed 😄
This is a fun short story/anecdote,
when Scarlet and Violet first came out my friend and I immediately started playing co-op on the first routes. Neither of us had more than a few pokemon from the area right outside the school at the start and about an hour into the game I hear him GASP
he caught a shiny Magikarp in a small pond that early into the game. The mix of being happy for him and wanting to strangle him was palpable lmao
Jokes on him though, I've managed to get myself a fleet of shiny Lokix with Kamen Rider nicknames now.
I love this story so thanks for sharing 😄 I imagine being able to play co-op right off the bat was so fun! And Magikarp in particular is such a cool shiny to find early on so that’s awesome 😎
Lokix is another great shiny, how many do you have?
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer I traded one away to a friend for their Birthday, but currently I have 4 total.
I also went through the NIGHTMARE grind of getting three shiny Charcadet, that is not a fun one to hunt down let me tell you lmao
@@DeltaSmearise Holyyyyyy, 3 Charcadet??? That must’ve been grim haha, I really wanted one for my challenge but I just didn’t think I’d be able to spot those eyes!
So my story is a little newer but on my main account I had been shiny hunting but couldn’t find anything I probably was missing them but this went on for like 3-4 hunts in a row. But once I started a spooky only run on a different account I found 3 full odds shinies during my run
It do be like that sometimes, it’s crazy how lucky and unlucky you can get, but I suppose that’s the draw of shiny hunting 😄 A spooky only run sounds awesome btw, I’m assuming it was Ghost and maybe Dark types only?
My story is short as well. My first pikemon game was bdsp and i wanted a machop for my team. I went into the grass where they span and i kill the first one i find. Then the next one i find is a full odds shiny. I couldn't believe my luck.
I’m doing a shiny only run in ORAS and have been horde hunting definitely recommend
So this is the story of my first shiny in pokemon Scarlet, i was hunting for like 6 hours and didn't get to find shiny pawniard i wanted, so kept going to progress on the main story. That's when i, after just 5 minutes, stumbled upon a shiny Combee. Sad ending anyways, because it was a male. 👎
Anyways, keep posting, love to watch your videos and congrats on the marriage :)
That’s a great story! Shame about the male combee tho, I had that same trouble in Legends Arceus so I know the feeling 😅 Really appreciate the wedding wishes so thank you very much, and I love that you’re enjoying the videos 🥳
Your shiny hunting video amazing! I’ve never was interested in shiny hunting before legends of Arceus and by the way i’ve got my first shiny in Pokemon Sword while i was surprise trading with other players where someone send me Araquanid lvl 100 with max EV’s stats and master ball as item that he hold.
Thanks dude I’m glad you enjoyed it! Oh awesome, it’s always cool finding one through the surprise trading function 😄
Congratulations on getting married!!! Wishing you both all the best! ❤
Thank you so much for this lovely comment, it’s much appreciated from the both of us 🥹
i enjoy ur shiny vids so much! keep on truckin :)
Thanks so much dude! BDSP is up next, wish me luck! 😅
My first pokemon game other than go was violet. On the first area after arven where he found Happy I found my first psyduck, who like his water typing was blue. I thought this to be a normal psyduck until I told my best friend that "psyduck's blue colour really matches his water typing" he was so shocked I didn't get it out of him that I'd caught a shiny for about 10 minutes
Since you mentioned in a previous video really liking Vespiquen, I thought I should let you know that you can actually get Vespiquen outbreaks in Scarlet/Violet. No idea about the odds, but if you use a bug encounter sandwich near an area they naturally spawn, it should increase your odds
Thanks dude that’s really thoughtful! I’ll keep that in mind, would love to do a Vespiquen hunt 😄
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer good luck! I got my outbreak with a level 2 bug encounter sandwich by the pokecenter outside the fairy team star base, so that's probably a good place to try
Love these, keep it up!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed 😄
i rly like ur narrating style
My story is that I got a copy of Scarlet on New Year’s Eve. I was only about an hour in when I encountered a random shiny Nacli. Named her Layercake because Garganacl looks like a walking layercake.
That’s an awesome story, thanks for sharing 😄 Layercake is a fantastic nickname!
Hiya Pixel, I know the giveaway ended a super long time ago at this point, but the two previous winners who I tried to contact never replied. Sooooo I ran the randomiser again and you won it this time! Would you be interested in the shinies still? 🥳✨
Underrated channel right here!!
Thanks so much dude! Glad you enjoyed the video 🥳🥳
My story is simple I bought Pokémon shield and I instantly regret buying it. The reason for it is I playd sword thru . After the store didn’t allow returning it, so I got bored pretty fast then my fried said let’s play so I played it thru, today I don’t regret it anymore.
Glad you’re not regretting the purchase anymore dude, Shield is a mixed bag but I always enjoy travelling through Galar 😄
In legends arceus I spent two hours hunting a cherubi since it was one of my very few remaining mons to complete the game. I found two shiny’s before I could find a single cherubi!
Cherubi is a difficult one to find isn’t it, I only recently learned that it’s only in certain trees in certain areas 😭 I thought it was all of them so I wasted a fair amount of time looking for one! What shinies did you find?
I found a sycther and a hisui arcanine in between my hunt for cherubi😭
I used an encounter power sandwich and I had only been hunting for a minute but I found a shiny lechonk without sparkling power
Loved the video!!
Thank you so much 🥹
I just got scarlet 2 days ago and I love it
Awesome dude, glad you’re enjoying it! This was actually my first playthrough of the game too so I know the feeling 😄
only just found youre channel. Shame there hasnt been a new video in 2 months. But if you return, ill be here, eagerly reading to watch.
well, it's not *that* interesting of a story but while searching for bisharp to evolve my own bisharp into kinggambit I ran into a shiny pawniard that had adamant nature and had the ability that evolves into supreme overlord, I named her glory and I always kept her in the back so that I could send her out as my last pokemon against the champion and sweep with the supreme overlord buff, she's now lvl 96 just cuz I used her that much!
That’s an awesome story, thanks for sharing it 😄 It’s exactly the kind of stuff I love to hear about so that’s great! Pretty crazy how well that one worked out for you especially while you were evolving a Bisharp anyway! 🥳
indeed! I loved bisharp's shiny so seeing kinggambit's shiny in person instead of on the internet was awesome@@ThisIsTheWayfarer
Love this!!
Thank you so much! 😄
have a happy marriage my guy!
stumbled upon this video in the random recommended section and decided to give it a go. was not disappointed. +1 sub for you ^^
Thanks so much dude that genuinely means a lot to me 😄 Really appreciate your comments and the fact that you enjoyed the video too, I’ll look forward to speaking to you in the new year when my next vid drops 🥳
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer yeah I really felt that you were putting your heart into this video while watching it. so it is definitely more than worth of all the support it gets ^^
definitely looking forward to future quality videos, I know you won't disappoint
This video has helped me learned how to,shiny hunt in scarlet. Also I’m that able to wait lol but like I said before congrats on your marriage to your now wife and I hope you two have a blessed marriage that last forever, God bless you both.
That’s great dude glad I could help! I’ve just seen both of your comments and it’s much appreciated so thank you 😄 The wedding was great and I’m now back to recording for the next vid - hope to see you when I release Brilliant Diamond but I can only use Shinies!
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer I like when UA-camrs limit themselves to using only shiny Pokémon’s lol
This is probably too late but my story is: I have a whole box and a half of shiny psyducks because it is my favorite Pokémon
My 2nd every masuda method hunt was in Violent for a Gible, it took me 5 days and 1232 encounters before I finally caught it
Nice dude, that is quite over odds isn’t it for Masuda method so good going! I bet it felt great seeing it finally hatch as a shiny 😄
@ThisIsTheWayfarer it felt amazing when it finally sparkled but yeah I was getting close to being 2x over odds
@@Illusive_snail05 I can imagine! I’m actually doing a BDSP shiny only run now for the channel and it’s pretty tough going with the odds, but when you do find one it’s hella rewarding 😄
@ThisIsTheWayfarer I still need to finish my BDSP save, it's been half complete for over a month at this point 🤣
Congrats on the marriage and have a great end of the year!
Thanks so much dude that really means a lot 😄 I hope you have an awesome end to the year too, it’s a great time of year this is 🥳
I know im late for the giveaway but I'm still gonna say a story about my first shiny from SV. You always go down into area Zero to fight Turo or Sada myself i had the game for about 3 days at that point after it had instantly launched so i was hoping for shiny sounds so i never really paid attention but i had gotten lost in area zero looking around trying to find the right path to get down and in front of me a cyan glimmora appeared i was like "Wait Glimmora is purple since i completely stomped Geeta." So i encountered it and have had it ever since same with Torch my shiny Greavard who i got the day after.
Awesome! That’s a great first shiny 🥳
@@ThisIsTheWayfareryou got a Discord Server? I can't find a link any where.
@@Voltagereacts No sorry dude, not really got time to do anything extra other than record and edit the videos! (and I’m even struggling doing that 😅)
I’ve got a Discord account to message the winners and organise trading but other than that it’s just the channel 😊
YOU ARE LESS THAN 10 SUBSCRIBERS FROM 5K YOU GOT THIS!!
commenting for algorithim not the giveaway!!! 😊 fantastic video, must have took forever to edit! such a pleasant journey though so worth it!
P.S congrats on getting married, hope the day is everything you both wish for and more, and to all the happiness in the future 🎉😊
Thank you so much I really appreciate both of these comments 🥹 And I’m really glad you’re still enjoying my videos too 😄 This one was ridiculous to edit but I might be yearning for Scarlet shiny hunting after playing through BDSP - we’ll see! Hope you have a fantastic Christmas & new year 🥳
can't wait for the next video already!
Great Video!
2 questions:
1. Is the giveaway over?
2. When will the BDSP Video go online? :)
Thanks dude! So the giveaway is technically over, I just need to do the randomiser again because the previous winner didn’t respond, just haven’t had time to do so yet!
On the second point, I’m in the middle of recording the BDSP video but it is painfully slow going 😅 I estimate it’ll be deep into summer if not longer, so maybe around July/August? Good news is, once I’ve finished that one I’ve got a few planned that are shorter and easier to record, so content should become more regular again 😊
Ok allright :)@@ThisIsTheWayfarer
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer
Is it hard to get shinies in BDSP?
@@paradyzze1219 it’s pretty difficult yeah, at least compared to LGPE, PLA or SV! You can see 10+ Pokémon on screen within seconds in any of those games, but in BDSP it’s back to the old format of running around in the grass to find encounters or soft resetting which takes ages!
As an example, I’m currently hunting Spiritomb which is a soft reset hunt, meaning I can only see 1 every 45 seconds 😅 Compare that to the open world games where you can see 25-50+ in 45 seconds and you can see why it takes so much longer!
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer
Ok good luck :)
As someone who is colorblind, it is very painful shiny hunting 😢
I can only imagine in this game, they really messed up with that aspect 😞
Do u have an estimated time when youre going to make another jurassic video?
Nope not yet dude!
Well I would have preferred Pokémon sword or shield but I love yer shiny only vids sooo
Totally get that dude, and I’ll definitely be doing a Shield shiny only run at some point! Currently working on BDSP and then after that it’s Shield, so it’ll be with you as soon as I can 😊
@@ThisIsTheWayfarer honestly didn't expect to get a reply, nah but i actually do really enjoy em and no pressure for completing em super quickly you know, take your time
@@zem9324 I getcha, but yeah I always try to reply to all my comments 😄 Awesome I’m really glad you’re enjoying them, I’ll never rush my stuff but yeah, SwSh are definitely on my list to do and I’m really looking forward to them!
My story is very sad now that i think. I was the little brother that erased the big bro game accidentally. RIP 100+ hrs game in pokemon sapphire in gba.
My dude that is heartbreaking 😭 I will forever remember my sister accidentally scratching my old PS2 discs so I know the pain, but yours is on another level!
congrats on getting married brother!
Thank you so much dude I really appreciate that 😄🥳 Hope you enjoyed the vid!
Hello
When is a new video going to come out?
I’m real close to my next upload which is Brilliant Diamond but I can only use shinies 😊
Im getting worried when are you going to upload a video😨
Don’t worry! I’m all good and I’m just recording the next video which is taking a while (BDSP shiny only run) 😄
I hate yt algorithm I wish I found your channel sooner
Loved the video!!
Thank you so much 🥹
