@@Rin-ng5ih I was focusing on completing dex pages to perfection, tbh, you start getting more shinies the second you stop focusing on them 😅 I know it doesn't help much, but I guess it is because since your focus is not on them, you stop feeling like it's been forever since you got one. Good luck though

Personally, I think it’s cause it’s far faster than it used to be. Excluding lets go (my fav games for shiny hunting) you always had to go into the grass/the Pokémon, do the long encounter thing, not shiny, kill it/ flee. Now they just show up, and it’s so much quicker and smoother

[@michaelflynn7126]

I know this is unrelated to the video, but just found this out recently and thought I'd let others know for saving a lot of time for sorting all of their pokemon. A very fast way to organise pokemon is to use the + button for finding the box you want to move them to after selecting them as a group (instead of L and R). If you don't do this, it's a serious pain trying to organise since the group you selected has to be in the exact same shape (3 along and 2 up for example) as the new space in order to move them. However if you press + after selecting 12 pokemon for example, as long as there are 12 or more spaces available in the new box, they will automatically be placed in the gaps (regardless of position) so you don't need to move them a few at a time. This has saved me a tonne of time and now my pokemon are all neatly and easily separated into boxes of normal, Space-time exclusive, alpha, and shiny pokemon so it's much easier to find the pokemon I want. Hope this helps some people...and also hope there's a future QoL patch to make sorting pokemon easier.

ZR*

yes but muscle memory. Its just faster in perception because its an action you've always done. But yes. I did feel like at one point in the game the battle system was much more action rpg with you conducting a live battle while assisting with items and pokemon switching in real time. But then they realised. Maybe thats overambitious and defaulted back to pokemon turn based tradition. But they kept what still worked on the old battle system. Hope the sequel goes that route.

[@PapaJefeYT]

I've actually tested the spawn radius with fly overs, you ABSOLUTEY can be too high off the ground to trigger the sparkle\sound... Even if you're able to visually see the Shiny on the ground. I found a random Shiny Eevee while flying over Icelands. Reloaded my save, and flew over the same spot again at different heights and was able SEE the shiny Eevee clearly, but only after I descended a bit did it sparkle\sound.

[@BluPhoenix]

11:58 Just a heads up, it's definitely NOT infinite. I'm not sure if it's a sphere, but it's not infinite and you CAN fly directly over top of a shiny and physically see it in the world without the sparkle/sound ever going off. Just tested it out myself. Great video though!

[@SavantThree]

Happened to me every time I find a shiny Turtwig. This is very much true.

[@SirAaron7]

Just started doing this for Gallade, and honestly learning about the Braviary exploit is hilarious enough to be worth it! Sadly I was multitasking while going through this, and I either didn't hear the shiny sound or it didn't trigger (I'm going with the second one simply to conserve my pride) and I missed a shiny Kirlia as it ran away before my eyes haha. The eventual shiny alpha Gallade will be worth it!

After the latest patch to the game, there's a game breaking bug involving Cresselia.

Please make a video covering this bug so that Game Freak / Nintendo / the internet becomes avidly aware of the bug so that it can be patched to help those who have been unable to finish the game because of it!

[@jacobehumphreys1104]

Can confirm cylinder theory for the shiny notification. Was flying around the Alabaster Icelands and had a full odds shiny Misdreavus spawn in the ice caves below and heard the noise. Took me a good chunk of time to find it afterwards because it wasn't near one of the entrances...

[@pwojo9776]

That Braviary from atop Snowpoint Temple is now a great method to farm Braviary for the dex entry since he respawns like every not-even 5 minutes, and is also just a great way to farm experience. Do the other various airborne Pokemon respawn that quickly? I've never noticed it with the others, but then again Snowpoint Temple is less out-of-the-way than the other spawn-points; like you're eventually going to get there whereas the others are in fairly unimportant areas, maybe it's more noticeable here because you'll have to keep going back for whatever reason (I personally used the top of the temple as a starting point to glide over the whole region to look for wisps).

[@logancallow4125]

I like how you talked about the radius in which we hear and see shinies in this video. I assumed that as long as I could see the Pokémon below me then I would at least see the sparkle if it’s shiny. Found out last night that that isn’t the case. I hovered over a ponyta outbreak and could clearly see a blue ponyta but wasn’t alerted either way that it was shiny until I descended low enough for it to register. Same thing happened with a shiny voltorb. There appears to be a height cap for viewing shinies that I wasn’t aware of and hadn’t seen touched on in any shiny hunting videos that I’ve watched.

[@hhjan594]

I'm pretty sure the shiny sound indicator works as a sphere. I once was flying on Braviary pretty high on the iceland and say a tiny golden pokemon on the ground. I was very confused because I don't think there is any pokemon naturally that color on the iceland. I decided to land to check it out. It wasn't until halfway I was landing did I see and heard the shiny sparkle effect. Turns out it was a shiny Piloswine.

Just commenting to say that I'm glad to see someone pronouncing Arceus correctly. :P I think Arceus is the only Pokemon that even the dub team had a hard time deciding how to pronounce it. In some scenes, they say Ar-kay-us, in others, they'll say Ar-kee-us, which is hella confusing. Ever since Arceus was released years ago, most fans and myself pronounced it the way you do and I think that's because we got the pronunciation from Japanese commercials and promos. My fiance and I recently did a double check on how it's pronounced in the dub and reaffirmed that the dub team doesn't really care anymore, lol. So we go by the original pronunciation in the Japanese version. :) Also, I'm jealous of your Majora's Mask.

[@luklop5136]

Am I the only one who doesn't get as much excited as streamers and youtubers? Like I found a full odd shiny Glameow and was just 'Cool'

[@metleon]

Not sure if it was figured out by now, but the shiny sound is definitely a sphere. I was flying around on Braviary in the Mirelands and was actually able to see a shiny Yanma pretty much right below me before the sound and sparkle happened.

[@AlphaSeagull]

Fun fact for those still playing through the game, Crobat and Gallade are also some of the strongest mons in the game excluding legendaries. Just give them Zen Headbutt which is almost as fast as Quick Attack while having 80BP, then go ham with sheer DPS

I had the frozen sideways wild Braviary happen to me too. It stays frozen if you save and reload the save and unfreezes if you throw a Pokeball at it, even if the ball bonks from being thrown from too far away. Also, I found a Shiny Alpha Goodra. I actually don't like Alphas because of their distorted cries, (in my defense, the first Alpha I used was Parasect. The cry was so loud and bad that I caught and trained a normal Paras.) but Goodra's bronze shell, ooze, and eyes look so cool and the cry isn't that different.

The only shiny alpha I have is Shiny Alpha Rotom. My twin brother caught Shiny Alpha Scyther randomly. - He evolved it to Kleavor.

[@EvyDevy]

What about Octillery and Phonie in the Sea's Legends cave? Some found out you can climb a tree and use Braviary to get on top of SnowPoint Temple btw.

Love your work dude, i can't wait for your BOTW 2 coverage 😁

[@A.D.G]

With gaining altitude with Braviary, you can do it with just the + and Y buttons. Alternate between + and Y and spam that over and over. No need for A. It might be more efficient to get the right timing, but you can most definitely gain height by just spamming those two buttons. I’d recommend spamming after braviary reaches max height on the initial take off

[@GrayBird2277]

I cannot for the life of me figure out the braviary trick, i rlly want that gallade

[@nicholasrizo6779]

The Gallade took me no more than 10 tries to get a shiny, I thought I'd be doing it a lot longer, and I'm pumped thanks for the help🙂

[@duckln1942]

Do you just reset there

[@deadmanwalking878]

I only got 2 apha shinies, one who was from a mass and the other one from a massive mass outbreak. The MMO was a Lickitung and the MO was a shiny alpha starly X3

[@aniMegsworld]

I tried the Braviary trick. It took me a bit to get the hang of it & I've only preformed it twice, but managed to do it. My way is a little unrefined, but it still gets the job done! Thank you for explaining it; it was a big help!

[@hiroasuakika7144]

13:15 go home Braviary, you're drunk 😂😂😂

[@7anime7lover7]

Hahaha! I liked hearing his friend get all excited, that's awesome☺️ also this is really handy, thank you!

[@karmabum21]

I only have one shiny alpha. It's a Raichu and it just happened to be there. I didn't even hear the sound. I just threw a ball at it for the dex and boom, shiny alpha!

[@extremepinqr7166]

Yesterday I was trying to find a shaking tree(for cherubi) then I randomly found a shiny alpha Carnivine.

[@mikeb6065]

You're killin it bro. Seriously I wish I had you're career

[@jondosentburn37]

these hunts make me wish there were more caves

[@kurisu2721]

Hey austin! You know how if you get hit by a pokemon while in the fall animation you get superspeed, right? Well, if you run then turn sideways and throw a pokemon then you essentially do a "superslide" from zelda, but in pokemon

[@outcast5018]

i got 4 shiny alphas all while randomly exploring.. clefable, yanmanga, ursaring and graveler

[@winnie5873]

Sometimes the Pokémon glitches in the wild are hilarious. I was walking by a bidoof when it randomly floated up a tree, when I walked away and came back it flew back down.

[@melanieburns5526]

I’m so excited. I’m not even that far into the game and I have a Shiny Ponyta (duh), Shiny Sudowoodo (first one encountered too! I had no Pokédex on it) , Shiny Carnivine, Shiny Tangela, Shiny Aipom and a Shiny Scyther! All in the span of 3 days- minus the ponyta. I feel so lucky!

[@LilBittyTay]

i have one shiny alpha and it came from an MMO with a star and it’s alpha mantine…it was my dex mantine too she’s is beautiful

[@mysticturtle9942]

Thanks for the guide I have been wanting to hunt alphas your videos are very helpful also I was looking for a cleffa for my poke dex and found a full odds shiny alpha cleffable

[@scampbell7633]

When I completed Gone Astray in the highlands, there was literally a random Shiny Alpha Luxray right next to me after the cutscene
