First answer to your comment.

[@dawnsbuneary]

I'm a bit of a shiny hunter myself, I have a question. Can any Pokemon be in an outbreak?

[@bjarnearneharskmat3013]

Any pokemon in the game can be in a outbreak except for legendaries and exclusives to the other game and starters.

[@dawnsbuneary]

​@@bjarnearneharskmat3013 thx

[@bjarnearneharskmat3013]

Your welcome. 😘

[@LunchBoxer]

23:43 They legit made toxel spawn near murkrow, literally gave me like 7 mini heart attacks

[@haaaaaalanddjddhdhd]

oh my god same. i have hunted for shiny murkrow so many times and every time i have seen a toxel i jump out of my chair

[@Boomy-]

same with psyduck spawning near buizel and floatzel, somethimes ill do outbreaks of them and every time i see the yellow i jump just to find out its a psyduck. though my fist buizel outbreak a full odds shiny psyduck just spawned right next to them

[@saturn2896]

When I first started to play the DLC, a Riolu that spawned right in front of a Rockruff made me think I got a blue doggo. What a deception when we find out it's nothing more but a bad joke...

Honestly, this video was such a fun one to watch! I remember from the start thinking, wait, there is no x Pokémon in this game? How is that going to work. Your content is awesome, and if I had to pick one it’s Espeon, for years I have hidden my love for green shinies because everyone hates them so much, but Espeon’s shiny is better than Umbreon’s to me haha. Awesome video!

[@bjarnearneharskmat3013]

Me to.

[@badashe1364]

Finally, a fellow Green shiny enjoyer, respect to you.

[@CtrlAltBacks]

I like Espeon more than Umbreon because it's so damn cute! And the shiny looking like an alien is such a nice touch, it's probably one of the best green shinies!

[@cole3806]

Fr shiny dragonite is in my top 3

[@areatrix]

finally someone who likes that more, i think umbreons shiny and desihn is okay but it’s probably the worst one for me

[@snaketailthecat8322]

My heart is dying after that plot twist that’s so sweet! I suppose I would really like the shiny Zorua and good luck to everyone wanting a shiny :)

[@KittyCat-xt4hd]

Thanks!❤

[@EiscueFriend]

I like how this whole video was made besides there being no X Pokémon in scarlet or violet

[@mimthyss]

I've never been lied to so many times in just one video (probably??) 😂 It was a fun video to watch, and a surprise ending! I love many of the shinies you caught, but if I had to pick one, I'd say Goomy. Love that little goober!

[@larvasupershow]

That was genuinely one of the sweetest plot twists I’ve ever seen- you’re too kind 😭

[@justsomeone2]

It's nice seeing more people appreciate shiny espeon, it's kinda rare tbh.

[@espmodeus]

FINALLY ANOTHER GREEN SHINY ENJOYER 😤💚💚💚 All of my first random shinies throughout the years have been green (teddiursa, masquerain, and cleffa) so they always have a special place in my heart even if other ppl hate them 😌

[@MrSharkyPlayz]

I love green shinies

[@mlmjlmcvm]

GO GREENGANG!

[@thekillshotsplay1082]

I usually don’t like free but I do love me those green shinies as well

[@koolkittykat04]

You know what, you’ve inspired me to start my own green shiny collection in S/V! I vaguely started it in USUM, but never finished. Maybe I’ll actually complete it this time! 😊

[@wowjennawow]

i was not expecting “i frew up” and it made me laugh out loud, fantastic video!

[@RMlazer49]

Hey that was a really cool idea, honestly the oricorio would be dope to have

[@Midnight-Blade]

Having my favorite Eeveelution Jolteon from my favorite KZbinr of all time would be an absolute dream. Thank you so much for making such amazing videos.

[@KNinetales]

8:50 That's like what happened with me and my Rockruff except I wasn't shiny hunting...I was collecting all the TMs.

[@benziewalker5392]

I feel you on the Masuda Method hate, doing my first hunt with it and it's real tedious lol. Great video as always! I think I'd want the Numel, I never knew shiny Camerupt went that hard and now I need it

[@FurreverFaith]

Helpful tip for shiney hunting day/night spawn pokemon! They still spawn but are programmed to despawn, but Shinies do not despawn and become so much easier to spot! I did this method to hunt Misdreavious's paradox. Totally forgot their name atm

[@piranha64]

You've inspired me to take on this mad challenge. I would love the shiny wingull, pelipper is my favorite pokemon

[@BiggestGoodPlaceFan]

“I’m not going to be using any encounter or sparkling sandwiches” *1 minute later* “After this first shiny hurdle, I decided it was time to make some encounter power sandwiches” 💀

[@gwaluhsan]

Mareep also being my first shiny a few hours into this is game is crazy

[@petezapseternity8187]

Absolute banger of a video! Now, to save yall's souls I am going to take the Veluza so you are not hunted every time you enter Casseroya anymore!

[@BruhwhotookSnIppy]

I really really love the way the entire gloomy line looks, it would b3 awesome to get its shiny especially as it would match my orange cast rn

[@lynxfangr]

Drowzee is a tapir, not an aardvark. Tapir are thought to eat dreams or something like that in mythology, something that goes along with drowzee's inspiration/design

[@Tsunami493]

you had done such a good job in getting all the letters available! Sucks of course that none with an X weren't available. :) I think out of all of them the Zoura would have been the shiny I went for first cause It's so cute being blue and black!

[@starwarslover015]

I once had a shiny jumpluff in a hoard of hoppip. A lot of pink. Also Drozee is a Tapir based off a Japanese Yokia that eats dreams

[@docalpaca]

I love watching your shiny challanges because I know i would never have enough patience to finish any one of them! I would love to have your shiny surskit! Just look at that little adorable guy!

[@VinniNTM]

The Venomoth outbreaks seem to be bugged. Same thing happened to me at the exact same location, they just suddenly stop spawning midway through.

[@coolgelliegamer9825]

Its not something i do myself but i respect people who match the shiny pokemon to balls, i am usually too focused on catching the thing to even consider the ball i use. So its impressive when people match balls!

[@centrixal]

Honestly didnt see the plot twist despie having noticed the 4 hours on the rock. I was just really confused 😅. Memento hoppip would be my favourite considering... an accident i once had with one

[@Cmonmanny]

What I miss is being able to talk to npcs in buildings. I loved going to every building in each town 😢

[@phoebehall3311]

Goomy is genuinely my favorite Pokémon I love her getting some lovely representation!! I feel like so many people I watch forget that goomy exists and it saddens me deeply. Great video!!

[@bloojay133_GVO]

That was so kind of you to trade away all of the shinies you got, ur so kind! I really would love to get shiny Qwilfish since I really admire the 2 tone! It’s a really slept on shiny unfortunately. Keep up the good work!

[@acalabrese171]

Such a fun idea for a video! I like that you were honest about the time it took because so many others arent! Would love the Zorua it’s so cute 😩

[@PixelSparks]

i love watching shiny pokemon vids like this

[@hamncheese2987]

This is such a nice twist! Personally, i would love that veluza! Its such a nice shiny, but such a pain to hunt

[@Cynicaltiger13]

The whole 4 hours on a rock got me! I had to subscribe for that one! Great video

[@pepsiebatata105]

Im want the kirlia

[@finnsnow2495]

Gotta love shiny Mareep it's one of my favs and the first thing I shiny hunted. I got three in one sandwhich and hinestly think I'll go for a full team eventually.

[@EndlessNight025]

Aw, KZbin didn’t tell me when this was uploaded again! This was fun, though. I had a feeling the challenge was going to be an automatic fail with there being no Pokémon in the game that start with X lol. Having any of the shinies would be nice, but I’d probably pick little Impidimp.

[@shockwavesgt3313]

I hunted for Veluza for days even weeks, and it was worth it when I ran into 2 SHINIES

[@pureblood049]

I absolutely love zorua, I had it on my first save file before it was deleted and I haven't gotten it again yet. I did hunt for hisuian zorua (took 700+ eggs 😭), but I will definitely be hunting for normal zorua soon. Loved the video! I understand the hunting pain 😔

[@mintycookies1327]

if anyone was wondering, drowzee is a tapir. it is based off the yōkai baku, a tapir that eats dreams. same thing munna is based on

[@cinnamonbruh10]

28:47 finally someone who agrees with me! Amazing video tho! And I would like the Espeon…. But I probably missed it

[@julesbyl981]

I randomly found a shiny luvdisk on my way to a gym and called it Mrs Lemon, now she's level 100 and even fought in every boss fight

[@ItzKoifish]

For me, one of my random encounters for a shiny pokemon personally would be Sliggoo, during when I was trying to find a certain pokemon I think it was Alolan Eggs, I had found a shiny Sliggoo, full odds, on my second encounter when doing the call for help method. I, forever love goodra’s shiny. I forgot to give it to my sister so I could get it back and well, I lost it. Cus I wanted to restart my game to get my starters signature move. So a few days ago, I had gone and hunted a shiny goomy so I could have my Goodra once more. (And I infact found it.)

[@_DewGaming]

Seeing red wugtrio is still going to be weird for me for a while. Got a shiny Wiglett the first time I saw them, and I first saw Wugtrio by evolving that shiny.

[@Thumbus]

You are one lucky soul, gz

[@_DewGaming]

@Thumbus True, but also not. I choose Quaxly, and I don't like having multiple pokemon with the same type. I ended up hunting a Varoom to replace the Wugtrio to keep my starter.

[@LM_Scruffs]

Qwilfish was literally my first shiny+first full odds 4096 shiny of Violet so it's cool to see u talking abt how nice a shiny it has

[@NightcoreBrawler]

That Shiny Toxtricity would be A rather nice Addition to my Shiny Collection... Would honestly save me A LOT of Time hunting one myself XD

[@jelly_spider]

3:30 Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats, And rats make me crazy… Crazy??

[@piplupmaster4898]

jeez you went over and beyond with the shinies and appearntly the easter eggs

[@thecatarmy3485]

19:43 Something I miss in the older games is not many Pokémon were shiny locked. In the newest games, starters and legendaries are often shiny locked, which sucks.

[@SophiaGamess]

Me who already uses Surfshark: *laughs in Surfshark getting all my money, but keeping me safe*

[@monkeewe9263]

23:43 the amount of times i thought i got a shiny hoppip when it was really a skiploom is too much

[@MeteorSmash]

I'm with you on shiny espeon. Although most people would say umbreon has the best shiny of the eeveelutions, shiny espeon is personally my favorite amongst them. It looks like an alien and i love it.

[@ADROM_is_cool]

I love how the rock sayed 4 hours and thought it sayed a rock

[@xatseye4042]

Love the legend of Zelda game over screen 22:52 like 2 seconds before this time

[@pokemonmasterofpaldea]

22:26 in the tree Of course like he said... 16:20 on the rock (I'm looking for more)

[@erikorekes7661]

There is nothing on the tree

[@connorsinclair581]

Now choosing a shiny is always a hard choice and honestly you're right, some of the greens are amazing. Frostmoth is God tier. But you got a shiny Umbreon there, easy choice.

[@jjofnintendo4251]

And i loved how wholesome the plot twist was 😄

[@testerwulf3357]

A lot of people hate Espeon and Jolteons shiny forms but I LOVE them!! I think green really fits them

[@austinnerd2343]

I will never forget the Spheal that shares a spawn with Chansey on the beach in PLA, it tricked me so many times..

[@owdog1262]

The time with the 4 hours being the most replayed had my laughing 😂

[@paulinafirestone7868]

22:26 in the tree. That's the only one I managed to find second try though. If I come back to this I might look again...

[@AtomicPuffin]

the shiny sparkle is the only thing i truly miss from older gens

[@biggie3465]

A very good video , so good in fact that i forgot to made myself a snack for it! So much effort was put in and even cooler for you to give them away to . If i was to be so lucky to get one of them, it would be Goomy, my favorite shiny of all Pokemon!

[@queenthefangirl268]

goodra is best pseudo-legendary i love that line so much, ever since i first saw goomy in the anime

[@RoxTheDumboLol]

tbh my little brain would have gone for Tatsugiri and then realizing an hour later, WHY ARE THE TATSUGIRI OUTBREAKS IN WATER!?!??! 💦

[@vagabondjester4518]

Goomy would be pretty slick to have

[@ShinyKat]

Always good to see a fellow shiny Espeon fan. 💚

[@mira55x-planetnalzena15]

shiny Espeon fans where ya at? xD

[@Ghostular]

i got shiny toxtricity full odds. needless to say its basically my fav shiny now next to shiny noibat

[@user-zd2qt9bv4e]

You do the same thing Dino does, they also match the Pokémon to the poke ball!

[@virehriftkin4176]

"No encounter power sandwich" 2 hours in "ok I'm gonna make a fairy encounter sandwich "

[@ghoulbusters6805]

The editing in this video has me dead 😂😭 “hey how ya doin?”

[@CasualTheEvil]

I feel the same way about rookiedee, back in the gen 8 days i was searching for about 2 months, I killed over 5000 rookiedee

[@bomberhat5222]

I had no idea luvdisc has such a great shiny id definitely want that one

[@CoolQuaxlyreal]

Yippee I should sleep but thumbus upload so imma stay awake a bit more

[@Padfoot_makes_stuff]

Jolteon’s green shiny makes it look like a bug/electric type

[@navynarwhal7]

I honestly love shiny Numel because he is just a chill boy and blue is my fav color! If I got him I would be so excited and happy!

[@itsbubzhomie7157]

Love what you’re doing here!! Would also love a shiny psyduck, i’ve been looking for that thing for so long now 😭

[@akelley1000]

I love shroodle and oricorio. Two shines I’ve hunted for since I got the game

[@shinyrayquaza2729]

when the shiny azurmarill started to float downwards across the screen, i thought it was a glitch lol

[@mindy1925]

came back to rewatch so I could see my Drowzee get caught (he frew up)

[@doc_w4lrus886]

Ive hunted a few shineys in this game so far but quillfish is not one ive thought of hunting (also all of my shinys were masuda method) so quillfish is my pick. Good luck to everyone else!

[@GBR____]

I agree, Goodra is the best dragon

[@pathetic1205]

Pov: you knew from the start x was impossible and was waiting for thumbus to say something btw that shiny toxtricity is like super dope and it'd be cool to have since I only have the lowkey form ahaha

[@SylveonIsTheBestThingEver]

Actually I’ll have you know that sylveon is not only the best shiny eevee evolution. But it’s also the 2nd best shiny in existence behind tyrantrum ofc

[@notactuallyyhim5470]

my favorite shiny eveelution would def be sylveon. idk but something ab the colors switching makes it fit better

[@benblocker8526]

Rolycoly and Mareep would be the coolest shinnies to have of all of these

[@ghostie-8089]

13:30 as someone with a deep personal vendetta against drowzee have never felt so understood, down with drowzee!

[@eb_775burk3]

OMFG I WAS WATCHINGTHIS AND RAN INTO A SHINY HOPPIP SAME TIME U DID MY MAN NOT LOOKING FOR IT WTF THIS IS CRAZY AF

[@jacinashannon7567]

That was the best description of drowsy

[@Narue722]

Hey thumbus, this was such a good video keep it up! Also I would die for a shiny kirlia I've been looking for them for months without results ;) Sorry for my bad english but keep up these videos they are super fun!!

[@gubgub434]

Great job! This was a super fun watch! I would be happy with any of these shinies tbh

[@thebakerboyxx2525]

Hey thumbs, I would die for that shiny Zorua 😂

[@isaakradi8727]

Rookodee was my first shiny in scarlet

[@logangannon6138]

I had something funny happen to me when I was at the beach with wiglett. I got 2 wugtrio in a row with no boosts (except shiny charm) it was awesome.

[@patgula672]

The shiny tentacruel behind the Zorua was like-🤫

[@DefectiveLotus]

Numel and Surskit, like Regice, originally had more vibrant amazing shinies.

[@Jimmy-mm1se]

Umbreon took me 3 hours before I gave up and hunted eevee taking 5 more hours with sparkling. You got it in minutes. The gods punished me.

[@watermelon_cat001]

"Im not gonna use any shiny sandwiches in this chal-" Alright lets gets some Encounter Power for Impidimp

[@ProfVibes]

I mean encounter power isn't a shiny sandwich?

[@watermelon_cat001]

@@ProfVibes technicallyyyyy, it still helps him get a shiny 🤓

[@ProfVibes]

@@watermelon_cat001 ? Not really. It just changes what pokemon would spawn. A shiny is no more likely with a sandwich than without.

[@watermelon_cat001]

@@ProfVibes I meant as in making that poke spawn MORE often therefore making those extra spawns help with the shiny odds
