Yea getting controller mod was a literal life saver for me. I physically cannot use a DS normally even now but what I discovered when I stopped hunting is when using a regular controller my hands are in a position where it's comfortable and non straining so I simply had to get the mod done or else I would have had to stop hunting entirely.

The route that you take in the beginning on top of the mountain makes it so you can hear the shiny sound without having to check the spawns. There's 3 on top in front of the temple. You were a seasoned PLA hunter when you uploaded this. You actually miss one at the end of the lake if you stop at the midway point of the edge of the lake to turn left and check the spawns in the water. If you finish the check by looking around Heart's Crag, you will find a lot of spawns, but you never know when that one spawn that you didn't end up checking could've been shiny. Do you have a full stream archive of this hunt? This is the only mon I want shiny, and I already have the odds at 1/1024(?) by having perfected the dex entry.

@JCBLPs4 ай бұрын
Didn't use a repel trick for this hunt but you could if you wanted to. If you used a Lvl 13 RT on floor 1F then Cubone is 50% alongside Machoke but the encounter rate would only be 10%. If you hunted on floor BF1 you can find Marowak. You can use a Lvl 14 RT there to encounter Marowak at 16.67% instead of 5%. Without a RT Cubone is 35% on Floor 1 & 30% on Floor BF1. Hope this helps :)

Like it’s so crazy that I don’t know if it’s even legit.
