I Shiny Hunted Giratina for 200 Hours

Giratina is my favorite legendary pokemon, so I decided to shiny hunt it in Brilliant Diamond. Little did I know, it would take 2 months, and over 11,000+ resets to find o.O

When I was little, I shiny hunted giratina in Pokémon Diamond. I still have the lad, his name is Azazel and he’s currently chilling on my scarlet save file. I remember doing the shiny hunt quite vividly, but I have got no idea how a 6-7 year old child with severe ADHD had enough patience to hunt giratina of all mons in an old Gen game with no charm and worse odds.

[@SupaflyProductions12]

hyperfixation goes hard for us ADHD folks. im currently stuck on 286 resets.

[@Psychadelicss]

I just recently hunted azelf in BDSP and I named my Azelf Azazel! 2 days later I somehow got giratinas shiny and named it Malphas (:

[@Chewwss]

This gave me shivers man, i had a giratina named azazel aswell but i lost it along with my ds a long time ago 🥲 hunting this one now and ill name it thanatos when i get it.

[@Mothcat.]

I actually got Giritina through dynamax adventures recently. Good job on you for going full odds for that hunt! You got so much dedication

[@EternalRadiant]

Appreciate it :)) I was so close to also just using dynamax adventures haha

[@braydenlaurie8077]

Me who transferred my one in 20 odds from pokemon go

[@kirbchickenperson8351]

I went from dynamax adventures to soft resetting due to the ally ai being so horrendous 💀

[@kacperkarbowiak6947]

I got my shiny gurathina recently too but congrats to you too !

[@ArcienPlaysGames]

200+ hours worth of resetting for one shiny is genuinely insane. That's an entire Terraria run where you take a LOT of time doing some decorating after actually completing the run. At the same time, I commend the patience and the perseverance that this requires. Where I would've given up after maybe 200 resets, you went all the way, and I respect tf out of that. Congrats!

[@WittyPractitioner]

Giratina is my favorite legendary too. I've been trying to dynamax adventure for it's shiny myself, and I'm hoping to catch it in a moon ball. So I understand the struggle (even though your hunt is way harder) and I'm super happy you finally got yours! Wish me luck too haha

[@EternalRadiant]

Haha Goodluck! The method of retrieval doesn’t matter at the end of the day, it’s all about getting that shiny >:D and in a moon ball too?! Great taste

[@YYangles]

200+ hours is INSANE Props to you for having the sheer dedication to be able to continue this and make epic content for us

[@EternalRadiant]

Appreciate the kind words angles, let’s hope for a much faster full odds hunt next time 😭🙏

[@YYangles]

Eternalradiant: please let this next full odds hunt be a quick hunt 🙏 The Pokémon he’s about to hunt: 🙅‍♂️😏

[@mobalanchi]

I’ve watched every single video you’ve made these past few months. You’re really a great and underrated poketuber and congrats on the shiny!

[@EternalRadiant]

Thank you for the kind words 😭

Good job on Giratina! On ultra Moon I reset over one accidentally but reclaimed it later. Nice shiny!!

[@EternalRadiant]

I felt that LMAOO I accidentally reset on a shiny palkia in ORAS, glad you were able to reclaim it :D

[@Rebelnorth]

I’m going through this with Rayquaza right now, I’m at 1505 resets..I pray I find mine before you found yours. Good work man!

[@Blindfold371]

Congrats!!! Lucius looks great! I was not expecting the cut to the master ball 😅

[@delters8969]

congrats! i'm currently soft resetting mine as well and watching these kind of videos help me continue to push. Giratina will also be my first shiny in shing pearl once I get it but I'm currently 3 days on the hunt and still no luck

[@ayayoshiyama2762]

CONGRATS! giratina has a beautiful shiny :D (im still looking for dialga in bdsp since around January2022 and even though I don't do it constantly I gave up hope but this is my sign to pick up the hunt again)

[@masquerade444]

I started periodically hunting for Giratina on Dynamax Adventures a little after your first hunt. I just finally got him today.

[@davidfilipe4460]

you deserve so much more views your vids looks so good, and one of the few poketubers that does not go around calling giratina the bad d word lol, and sees how cute and great this giant noodle centipede is, congrats on the shiny

[@PixelPikmin]

I’m glad you finally got it. I remember you tried hunting it in the Halloween video, but it didn’t show up after 10,000 encounters.

[@EternalRadiant]

Those were sad, dark times 😭

[@PixelPikmin]

Now that the DLC is close, maybe you can try and hunt some of the legendaries with the new snack method?

[@yelling3874]

Dude, congratulations!!!! Well done!!! This gives me some hope for my own hunt lol, I'm STILL holding onto that shiny gimmighoul hunt and it's been torture Edit: the transition into the ball clicking shut had me cackling

[@EternalRadiant]

AHHH thank you!! I was giggling too while editing this vid 😂😭 gl with your hunts 🙏

[@yelling3874]

@@EternalRadiant thank you!!! You too!

[@azalea-P]

wait wow do you mean that you just havent gone online in sv since the gimmighoul raids? thats actually insane, good luck with ur hunt!!

[@CMH_Hunts]

You finally got it! Congratulations!

[@EternalRadiant]

Thank you!! I’m so happy haha

[@fanaccount2969]

He did not forget his masterball.

[@elijones1007]

Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 I feel your pain it took me several days to shiny hunt Sneasel for Hisuian Sneasler!

[@nyancat8828]

Wooo congrats! I remember shiny hunting and being so hyped when I got mine, only to somehow lose and and I have no idea where it went :'D I think I accidentally reset over it on the game I had it in lol

[@pink_haired_viking]

YES! you did it, you finally did it, congratulations my dude

[@catboy7395]

i normally dont comment on videos, but i wanted to say that i found your channel recently and it was the final push i needed to start shiny hunting :) ive always looked on at shiny hunters in awe, but was always intimidated by it. i havent had great luck so far, but with some casual hunting ive gotten 3 shinies so far :) i just wanted to say thanks for being the reason i finally felt confident enough to try ^_^

[@EternalRadiant]

This just made my day, thank you for this comment 😭🙏 I’m glad I could get you into the hobby, it’s full of laughs, tears, and good memories. Enjoy the ride

[@espeon030]

a great shiny to start is a dunsparce in area zero you can just walk up to them and non shiny ones will despawn you need a sandwich with normal type encounter power sparkling power is also great (especially if you don't have the shiny charm) cuz it gives you more shinys but you need herba mystica for sparkling power which means you need to do a lot of raids (5 star is the best from what I've found) your welcome for the tip!!!

[@S1n1stra]

It's finally joever! We love Giratina and congratulations for the shiny!

[@EternalRadiant]

Thank you sinistra

[@S1n1stra]

@@EternalRadiant you're welcome!

[@calamariwithak8557]

Congrats man!! Shiny Giratina is well worth the work, it’s a fantastic shiny. Any tips to not go crazy while hunting? I’m hunting Arceus right now!

[@jembee]

Oh ive been WAITING LETS GOOOO So so so SO proud you finally got it dude 💛

[@EternalRadiant]

AHHH THANK YOU JEM!!

[@Kennydustin333]

A friend of mine got the shiny Giratina as his first (random) encounter in BDSP. He didn't even plan to shiny hunt it. That lucky b!

[@JamesRodriguez-sk9mj]

Took him 200+ hours and I got it from my first raid in Pokémon go. All jokes aside good shit man

[@neptune2398]

I know I'm late but congrats! I got very lucky and decided to do the gen 6 national dex before the 3ds servers shutdown. Since I had to have multiple copies I got the normal Giratina in another copy and traded it to get my shiny charm so I could hunt for it in Omega Ruby and I managed to get him in 173 soft resets! He's now in my Violet and I adore him.

[@armani3298]

Me who just did 20 raids in Pokémon Go: 👀

[@mrmcomics9488]

Got one yesterday in the distortion world with under 10 resets, but been resetting firered for months for charmander with no luck lol

[@MipGhost]

what did you use to count the encounters

[@BK_Silvally]

Congrats on finally getting shiny satan! 🎉

[@EternalRadiant]

thank you!! 🙏🙏

[@vincentwygers220]

I got shiny Rayquaza like almost 2 weeks ago, It's my fav pokemon of all time and my first shiny hunt ever. Took me 10 000 encounters lol but worth it. Now i'm coming for that Arceus lol.

[@Queen_Magikarp]

congrats on the shiny i’m well over 25K resets for mine

[@idhgni]

WOOOHOOOO! Congrats Angelo!

[@EternalRadiant]

THANKS ID!!

[@daronhybridgaming3165]

Got mine way back in pokeball in the dymax cave hopeing it wasn't shiny but it was still happy i got one in sword

[@lindsayhopper309]

I’m in the same boat as you with possibly big encounter numbers but I’m having this problem with arceus in brilliant diamond this gives me hope

[@espeon030]

that's a really cool shiny!!! I would have named it vanilla cuz the body reminds me of vanilla ice cream

[@huntercrow9553]

the only one i hunted in brilliant diamond is darkrai, might try giratina or arceus along side a darkrai hunt in platinum

[@f_ire_]

I have still been hunting giratina for over 4 years now technically on Ultra Sun, I used to hunt regularly for months back in 2019 and stopped for awhile, came back doing regularly when crown tundra released for swsh, then I stopped again. I haven't really bought the dlc on scvi due to how kinda medicore the first part of the dlc was and that I don't have much yet to buy the dlc, now I can technically buy the dlc, and so far, I'm pretty sure I can complete the dex and the part 1 of the dlc before part 2 comes out, That and, because of the legends actually coming back in ID, I thought of starting the first part of the dlc before buying it with a shiny giratina that I've been hunting in US so I can transfer it with the shiny registeel I have in US too lmao. I don't know how long I'm in the resets since it has been over 2 years since I touched my 3DS, hopefully I can get my shiny boy soon, especially since I just started today again lmao edit: Technically I could just do dynamax adventures, but I really still don't like the ai of the npc's, so I might as well just soft reset easily infront of the Gira in US. PLus I'm already this deep in the resets, might as well continue lmao edit2: eyy, I actually got him, now he's in Violet

[@noivern_gaming5196]

These videos are always good i have been watching since the beginning

[@EternalRadiant]

Awww thank you!

[@aeronbridgess7991]

Last Christmas I got my full odds Giritina (in gen 4) after hardly 200 resets. My blue gentle boy :]

[@joseromero3868]

[@GreatClips592]

Cool legends ZA prediction with the thumbnail

[@sparkgaming4159]

Hey how do you track how many encounters it took to get Giratina? With that image

[@WiseOrangeExterminator]

I also hunted for him in bdsp... It was brutal. But I got him and will never let him leave

[@BearM0527]

I literally just got my shiny giritina earlier this week. I did it in alpha sapphire though so the shiny charm worked

[@Crush_The_Cranium]

congrats on the giratina ER

So are all the first stage mons gonna be endeavor focus sash cheese users or

[@breath2802]

200h + is insane It only took me 134 resets for Shiny Giratina

[@fluffycat679]

Giratina was my second shiny Legendary I hunted, through Dynamax Adventures! It could possibly be my favorite shiny of all time, and I'm very glad I got it.

[@mattgaming03333]

You went over OVER odds, glad to see the cycle has ended

[@EternalRadiant]

Me too 😭🙏

[@CubeVelocity]

Such a cool find!

[@patoalvarez7585]

I expected this to be like the forgotten masterball series by nokimon ngl

[@EternalRadiant]

Nope, gotta be original 😎

[@ethanweiss3004]

What’s team did you use to get it

[@charlotte_n_Fola]

I always name my Giratina Mr. Bubz after the demon dog

[@EternalRadiant]

Great name!

[@ayayoshiyama2762]

I was just wondering have you got any advice on how to not totally lose motivation on a draining hunt ? you seem really good at continuing hunts when they r difficult 😅

[@EternalRadiant]

You’ll get it eventually! Keep going and keep yourself distracted while you hunt (I personally watch shows or streams)

[@reeves0008]

Congrats on the giratina. Now time for me to get mines

[@EternalRadiant]

Gl reeves! You’ll get it soon don’t worry :) if not, I welcome u to the 10k clubs >:)

[@cshrubs]

Glad my goat finally got his shiny 😭 GG Rad

[@EternalRadiant]

Appreciate you cshrubs

[@wanderingtyphlosion7332]

On the opposite side of the spectrum. I'm hunting God by running away, since you can emcounter reset like Shaymin with Arceus. Congrats

[@EternalRadiant]

I’ll be hunting arceus soon haha thank you :)

Caught my shiny giratina first try in dynamic adventure in a moon ball

[@cardinal8848]

Dude I shiny hunted him for a week and got him on Christmas Eve Then I failed to catch him and it took me another couple of weeks…

[@crazycreeper427]

THAT IS SICKKKKK

[@pixilmon]

I hunted it hard, Arceus was super hard and after like 10k resets I just rng maniped

Hey what counter is it you are using?

[@bbunkki_4720]

Reminds me of smkgaming05 charmander hunt

[@Kuropopex]

I was going to comment that I understand the feeling because I got a shiny Giratina after +11k resets too, but i think you had it worse because i did it on original Pokemon Diamond that has a faster soft reset method 😢

[@Lsnjd81]

Congrats but i had to comment bc i got mine first dynamax adventure but CONGRATULATIONS ❤❤❤

I am doing a shiny hunt for aphla bidoof and now I'm at 210 hours an update I already told you though on a different video

[@mustachecrab9669]

I'm on over 50k for a sentret in Soulsilver, and i have not enountered a single shiny since i started the hunt, that includes a full playthrough of Sapphire, half of diamond, and 2 days of soft resetting in Platinum for a shiny Chimchar. I just wanna see a single shiny man, what's with my luck. I missed 3 tackles in a row while fighting a Shinx on my way to Oreburgh, that's a 2³ / 1/8000 chance. Feels like my games are against me at this point.

I hunted giratina last year in bdsp. I took fucking 11900+ resets. 💀
