I Spent 24 Hours Shiny Hunting In Pokemon Scarlet

[@PM7]

What was the first shiny Pokemon you found in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

[@Larat..]

I found a shiny skiddo the first day of the game while on a call with my friend

[@DuckTheFirst]

I found a shiny wiglett

[@xkaii8617]

I accidentally found a shiny Pichu 2 hours into my first playthrough, was just using the lets go to clear an area for materials and it wouldn't take down the Pichu and turned out to be shiny.

[@Hanin_Isa]

Meditite. I also found five others and I have yet to get the Shiny Charm 😅

[@Pixel_Perfect101]

Shiny charcadet!

[@AkemiStormBorn]

The lack of shiny sounds have made it so Purplecliffe won't be the only one missing shinies anymore.

[@fiery_22]

Seems Gamefreak just wanted to make things more fair for everyone, lmao.

[@ShinyShades]

The ref deserves a raise. He did a great job declaring which Pokémon are shiny.

[@somethinginthedump7697]

I don't think he even gets paid

[@cje-gamer4847]

Yeah

[@tomster6311]

i'm paying him (dont tell pm7)

[@Lokear]

@@tomster6311 Wait, you're paying him? But... *I* am paying him... is he finessing us all?

[@zombiegang1343]

...Im colorblind

[@goldengold8513]

The best part was when he was tricked by that one guy who used their game to find a shiny, screenshot it, have it in an area he had been in and then post it to John, the effort he put in just to instantly be discovered and John laughing at him. Mad respects to him.

[@tomdaturtle5792]

Which of the failed shinies was it? The Deerling?

[@Its_Asteria]

​@tomdaturtle5792 no the Deering clip has his stream and character and clothing and everything so that was John.

[@connorquig8607]

When I was playing Pokémon Violet, right after I completed the main story, I wanted to see the places I haven’t seen yet, so when I went to go find an iron valiant, but accidentally found a full odds shiny Sneasel instead. Then the very next morning I was just aimlessly roaming around and found another full odds shiny Arcanine. Then legit only a few hours later, I wanted to go get a frigibax, but I found a shiny Glalie instead! My friend was super ticked that I found 3 full odd shinies all less than 24 hours from each other.

[@Lokear]

I started to fill the dex right after the credits, and I've now found 6 shinies, two of which were back-to-back Snorunt within *TWENTY MINUTES* of each other.

[@Yami_Soryu]

In all fairness, if gamefreak had added the shiny sparkle for when they spawn (which isn't in the game for some godforsaken reason) he wouldn't have missed so many shinies.

[@trombonenerd02]

The amount of failed shinies here is why there needs to be a sound effect like with Arceus

[@strike5102]

Yes would make it easier instead of hoping you didn't miss it

[@masonthai4712]

No, shiny hunting is already too easy in this game

[@dylanopium1874]

No lie I wasn't even trying to shiny hunt and a shiny Girafarig literally ran up to me like "Hey dude whats up?!😃" and when I tell you I gasped! I felt all air escape from my body as pure excitement and anxiety took over

[@sargentgullible2794]

I had a similar story, except with Espathra, it literally came out of fucking nowhere and encountered ME instead of encountering IT.

[@CringeAnimePFP160]

Same thing happened to me but with a fidough. Unfortunately the first move it used was roar which made it flee the battle and disappear. Now i realize just how valuable quick balls can be.

[@dylanopium1874]

@Despicable Me Oof I feel so bad. The game legit said "Psych" 🤣

[@Pablo360able]

@@CringeAnimePFP160 Just so you know, if you’re higher level that will also make phasing moves fail in wild battles.

[@Nativeflutesounds]

We've been waiting for this moment for years, but it feels like the first episodes only came out yesterday, time flew by very quickly. I can't even imagine how much effort and love was put into this project. I was glad to catch the beginning of this story and all its development. I have no words to describe all the admiration and respect I have for the author.

ITS GONNA BE A GOOD DAY WHEN PM7 UPLOADS

[@CarnoRex285]

John: Says Roaring Moon is the crown jewel of Pokémon Scarlet. Koraidon: Am I a joke to you?

[@lbroseven9177]

I was hunting for a shiny iron valiant while watching(well, listening to) you hunt for the revavroom in the mass outbreak. You found it, and then about 30 min later I found my iron valiant. Thank you for keeping me somewhat sane during the hunt

[@vidachsa]

Lucky I have been shiny hunting lechonk for 8 hours and haven't seen a single shiny

[@vidachsa]

I'm going insane

[@machodgdon]

I gotta admit that thumbnail goes hard

[@searingllama5621]

My best shiny encounter was when I was walking between the towns to re-do the gym challenge and get use of my shiny charm, I found a shiny Tauros right after telling myself that I'd never find one since it was too similar to the not shiny, but the sun was at it's brightest so I saw it on the first group I came across

[@joetomp]

Everyone, please be aware that running from shinies is fine in singleplayer, but in multiplayer it WILL despawn. I found a second shiny makuhita in my friends game, went for the encounter and then said, “hey wait I’ve got this one already, you come catch it” and when I ran from it the thing despawned.

[@sneakygoomba5042]

Those were some great streams man! Also, I'm happy my message when you caught the first Great Tusk at 15:05 is in this video! XD

[@sneakygoomba5042]

@PM7_Give_Away_ You seriously think I'd fall for this? XD

[@ThisAintGood.]

I know how fun yet miserable this was, but I enjoyed watching it

[@starwarschamp4806]

I love the challenge ref for the missed shiny mons, very creative!

[@adamajora1003]

So with the amount of deerling that I've passed, not caring to check if its shiny because I didn't know it's shiny, I just knew that it was hard to tell. Learning that it's shiny has a pink flower has led me to believe that there is a 90% chance that I've unkowingly passed a shiny deerling, since I haven't found a random shiny yet.

[@snowyd696]

Got bored while shiny hunting Zorua and thought I'd put on some PM7 to listen to/watch while I hunted. 1 minute into the video and I immediately get the shiny. This man is magic

[@blakecochran9317]

I NEED THAT FROG HAT And don’t worry John I think it’s wonderful and definitely NOT atrocious 🐸🐸🐸

[@skullgamer3649]

I love on how when John kept running into regular Great Tusk trying to get shiny Great Tusk on how “Hello There” kept playing

[@zacjansen8590]

I watched these streams live whilst shiny hunting myself. Loved every second of it. Can't wait to see future gen 9 content

[@SussyMoth]

Frog hat :> "Gible gible gobble gible gobble gobble gible I'm losing my mind."

[@orang3eagle]

We all need some chillwdog in our lives

[@evanthehuman3557]

I feel the pain of the Great tusk moving you around, I accidentally ran in to them like 6 times but then the loops…

[@StarNinja77]

Probably the most aggravating thing in the entire game. I got stuck in the one tiny shrine cave being juggled for five full minutes. =l

[@zoesusername]

been hatching sprigatito eggs to get a shiny goofy cat hopefully subscribing will allow me to finally get this guy- EDIT: AFTER LIKE A WEEK OF HUNTING I FINALLY GOT IT, THANK YOU FUNNY POKEMON KZbin MAN

[@juliuspearce]

These are awesome shinies! glad I could be there on the stream for some of them

[@KoderKat]

these videos always inspire me to shiny hunt, who needs sleep when I could be hatching charmander eggs??

[@Jacobis_Awesome]

This is honestly on of my favorite videos that you have ever posted. (I watched most of the live streams and managed to not see you get a shiny somehow)

[@bett2390]

Watched the last 3 hours live, it was insane!

[@radioactivefire7168]

the fact that a lot of these hunts were kind of similar to some of my experiences with the random encounter teddiursa, finding a shiny houndoom before finding a shiny roaring moon (in my case iron valiant) and also that iron valiant having a mark

[@amproliknugget]

John, Jack will be mad at you for missing a shiny wooper. I can not help you out of it!

[@alainataul3367]

The shiny luck in this is literally unbelievable. My first Pokémon sv shiny was a male pyroar

[@fammgolpx5512]

He released the video! For those who weren’t there the Tediursa was legendary.

[@FierceMask]

It was really fun watching this live!

[@IronWolf123]

When you missed the Makuhita, it made me remember I missed a shiny Espathra because I thought the pink and gold was the shiny.

[@ashersikes9987]

I like how he said “were back” at 17:50 but never left

[@gamorean4903]

I can’t get over how good shiny Forretress looks in this game

[@MrMeowstic7]

For those who want their own shiny roaring moon, here's some tips. Number 1, stay off koraidon. The last thing you wanna do is despawn a shiny as it spawns in. Number 2, keep the camera zoomed out and constantly rotate it as you walk around. Keeping the camera zoomed out lets you see more pokemon and constantly moving it around makes it easier to spot a shiny if it spawns behind you. Number 3, stay away from the lake and the walls. The lake spawns golduck if you get too close and if you're familiar with looking behind walls you'll know that pokemon spawn behind them sometimes. This just kakes it easier on you. Lastly, use autobattles to free up spawning space so more pokemon can spawn per sandwich which may make the shiny easier to get

[@KaiserJek]

I’m glad I could be part of this watching your streams!

[@zelos1826]

Referee Guy is amazing. Give that man a raise.

Thank you for the shiny luck. I found a shiny Forretress who I am very glad to have saved before because she exploded 3 times before I caught her. I named her Megumin.

[@justadude450]

14:09 They are actually pretty noticeable since the games became 3D, Gengar on the other hand looks completely identical

[@shadowsaber415]

This was a blast to watch live and the video is great!

[@alexwalker5716]

There's no scientific explanation, but I subscribed a little before Legends: Arceus came out and I got like three shinies in the first day of playing. My brother is a serious shiny hunter and was so mad about it. I don't know how, but I think the pm7 guarantee works.

[@leroythejenkins3930]

We need to riot on the no sparkle shiny encounter so you don’t have to suffer anymore

[@YoloYester94]

Okay, but that shiny teddiursa at the end hit me. That was my first shiny in this game ever, and it was full odds!

[@julianperez9856]

Are we not going to talk about how many critical captures this man makes?😅

[@n7x]

If you throw a ball at a Pokémon you have already caught, and the ball succeeds, instead of doing the full animation it shows the critical animation

[@zekrom6537]

critical capture happens more often the more pokemon you caught so if you complete the pokedex your critical capture rate hits its max

[@eliboyden4903]

I really need that PM7 Guarantee right now

[@SealFormulaMaster]

My first shiny was a 1/4096 Maschiff. 30 minutes into the game. Second was a 1/4096 or so Shroodle I accidently ran into while looking for Dex completion stuff. I really don't think Shiny Herbs and Shiny Charm are needed this generation...

I'm still working thru my first playthrough in violet, and somehow I've gotten THREE full odds shinies just walking around!!! I think the PM7 guarantee is real

[@Rileytabourn]

Can confirm that PM7 is the ultimate shiny charm. Watched my first video yesterday and then later hatched a shiny sprigatito in less than 10 eggs

[@thomas09uk16]

The amount of failed shinys is ridiculous there needs to be an sound indicator

During the 2nd shiny gible he missed another shiny houndstone, who was in the background as he caught the 2nd gible. 19:52 is the timestamp
