I spent 250 Hours Shiny Hunting in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

I've decided to hunt for a shiny living dex in Pokemon scarlet and violet! That means that I need to collect all 392 of the Pokemon that are available to catch shiny in Paldea!
This is how I'm doing after the 250 hours I spent shiny hunting in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet so far!
Part 1:
• I spent 150 Hours Shin...

The amount of times you where “I thought that was shiny” and it is shows the power you have

@@JonasRodgers it’s highlights from a stream so that it’s often in the compilation isn’t too strange

What a confusing comment. I really don't understand what you mean.

these are some of the best reactions because its just the most genuine kind. no screaming, no jumping around throwing stuff, just hyped talking and laughing

Adrive does all that lol

this cannel deserves more love, truly a hidden gem

Very kind ty!

[@crazyjellybean5259]

​@@RyanWasTakenToowhat do you mean by "Shiny charm mods" (in the intro)?

[@crazyjellybean5259]

​@@RyanWasTakenToonever mind, I've just realised it was "Shiny Charm Odds"

[@curiouscreator8806]

18:07 Yes, the Toedscool was a shiny. I thought I was supposed to focus on Jolteon, but nope. Shiny Toedscool only existed for 12 frames moving forward by 1 frame with the [ > ] key at some point by the timestamp shown above.

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

I literally didn't have time to stop moving D:

[@alissabethsawyer2260]

I love your laugh each time you encounter a shiny 🥺❤ it's very contagious! Great video

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

very kind, I think I sound a little unhinged sometimes lmao

[@JakuraithePrimalWarrior]

This is the third time I’ve watched these shiny reactions. I love your content and you inspire me to go the extra mile to get shiny Pokémon.

[@Bee_814]

I don’t understand how you’re so chill about getting shinies 😅 , my heart rate literally just goes through the roof when I think I saw a shiny.

[@Twinklethefox9022]

That happened to me today trying to find a shiny tinkatink. The shading made me think it's hammer was bronze or rust colored.

[@esmin2400]

I got a shiny ditto watching the first part of this series earlier. Ran into what I thought was a Persian accidentally and did NOT expect a shiny ditto at all. Panicked so bad cause it turned into my ‘suicide move special’ Hawlucha but I caught it!💀💀

[@gabbywills98]

Love your streams and videos Ryan! Good luck with the rest of the Living Dex buddy! 🧡

[@boisvert45]

I love how the video started with snorunt. Because just a few days ago i found a female shiny snorunt on my way to a glalie mass outbreak, when there the shiny was in the first group that spawned. So shiny Snorunt will kinda be special to me

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

Snorunt is one of my favourite shinies because of the way the colour palette shifts along it's coat and eyes, congrats on your shiny!!

[@ocean7867]

I was just walking to levincia while watching this and was about to pass a herd of deerling and I’ve developed a habit of stopping to look for shinies that aren’t that obvious so I stopped and sure enough it was shiny so i false swipe it and it uses take down I start to die inside as it was my first shiny fail and then remembered that I saved so I reloaded the game and caught it and checked for a mark and saw title conferred it had the cloudy mark so long story short I found a full odds marked shiny because I’m paranoid and stop to look at everything which then killed itself but I had thankfully saved

[@echo_2.]

Honestly you are inspiring to me cause you made me want to try to shiny hunt in Scarlet but I still haven’t gotten one cause I just got the game. thank you for keeping me entertained while playing through the game and trying to find a shiny.❤

[@BlueSodaPop_]

Did you end up finding a shiny, dude? I'm so curious!

[@itswalberg]

Ryan *finds a shiny* Ryan's reaction 80% of the time ''Wait is that shiny?'' LOL great vid man and yes Toedstool was shiny

[@tibarnphoenix9618]

Love the first video still loving the second video also quick balls for shines mad lad right here

[@AaronD0608]

this is an instant serotonin hit sheeeeeesh

[@bradwood8101]

Your eye for detail is incredible. :D

[@Kyongha]

The moment with the shiny bagon had me giggling. I like your reaction to each shiny 😂

[@Devious_Dragonite]

I really enjoy these videos very fun to watch :)

[@lolineko2083]

I am really glad I am not the only person who doesn’t scream when I see a Shiny. I feel less lame now 😂

[@keratheartist]

While listening to this, I ran into a shiny Wooper!! Thanks for some of your luck man : )

[@horrorsofthenight8751]

"I thought this was shiny"..."it is" *manic British laughter*

[@BucketOPaintShorts]

I’m so glad there’s another person who doesn’t save when finding a shiny

[@jolliron]

Dude living my dream up in here

[@mimikyu7163]

I finished my first ever Shiny only play through of Pokemon Scarlet and it was the most fun I’ve ever had playing a Pokemon game. The idea of just seeking out the shiny version of a member of the team was to me at least a blast! I plan to do my own shiny living dex with my first goal being the Eeveeultions

[@moosecalvery9708]

I wish I had his luck. I am also trying to do a living shiny dex, and it is so hard but so rewarding when you get your shiny

[@Slayyyyyy17]

How do you get the single locked pokemon? Love your channel

[@Twinklethefox9022]

I'm not interested in doing a shiny living dex but, I am hunting for my team in shiny forms. I got sprigatito and currently hunting for tinkatink. And congrats on the shinies.

[@SuperConroy99]

Fun fact! Numel was the last shiny I caught before finishing the Paldea Dex! It was hiding in an alcove of rocks along one of the big slopes in Area Zero, and I am SO lucky I even noticed it in the first place, cause that thing was super hard to tell apart from the other Numels given all the light in the area

[@shadlin6839]

Take a shot every time Ryan says "I thought that was shiny...it was"

[@streats1]

Inwas here for most of them so that makes me really happy

[@cerberusloki.9226]

I'll probably never do a living dex, let alone a shiny living dex, but i respect the time you're putting into it, especially masuda hunts. I'm trying to masuda hunt fuecoco and i can't even imagine doing it three times over for three different starters. Absolutely fuckin bonkers

[@Jowahotz90]

Never knew shinies were so funny but Ryan must really like their material

[@hollowbbygirl4514]

it's amazing how you can notice shiny like that i have a trouble time seeing them lol

[@Mr.Freeze420]

I’ve been shiny hunting woopers for a while. I’ve got 2 at the moment got them in 1 sandwich which is super lucky since I don’t have the shiny charm

[@luistyleralvarez6702]

Was that a shiny dugtrio att 37:53?

[@RokkTheRock]

you're a natural at spotting them

[@KrisTurk]

a bit late but what methods did you use for shiny hunting? Did you use any sandwiches at all? or outbreaks? Love the vids btw!

[@aislingtheavey3860]

The fact that I don't even have the patience to complete the pokedex normally and there's this guy finishing the shiny dex

[@KZ-kl8fx]

You played a lot of where’s Waldo as a kid huh 😂 got an eye like a damn hawk

[@jordiducatgarcia9344]

What did you do for the game to not have fps lag or performance drops? I still have a lot of problems with that

[@CamarasaurusLover15346]

This video blessed me with a shiny tropius!

[@tikootje1]

More like: I spent 250 hours saying Oh my god!, LEt's go! and semi-evil laughing! :P Nice vid, was there for the most of them! Also don't think Toadscool was shiny, but the short frame didn't get the chance to load in the colours. Too bad shiny Toadscool also looks like it has no colors

[@Swiftie4life13_.13]

I love watching people do this.

[@Agelessmaltose]

One I lost a shiny Lokix because of a cutscene ! Spoilers ! So I was doing the whole area zero thing, and the part that has a slop you need to go down to get to a research base was where I was at, just as I started to slide down it, I saw the shiny, got excited, then watched in horror as the cutscene played and the shiny dissapeared.

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

oh my god i'm so sorry!

[@aidanclarkson8644]

i love just how happy he gets when he finds a shiny lol

[@19iorfinop]

for pokemon that have suicide moves like memento or self-destruct, be sure to have a pokemon with the damp ability and the move skill swap, like golduck.

[@luckylillyHasLuck]

[@Bup69]

My fellow shiny living dex hunter brother in christ i bare one simple question... How the hell does one hunt for a sunkern?!? (Btw love the videos keep up the great work mate!)

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

Sunkern doesn't show up in outbreaks, so honestly, the easiest method is probably masuda, although you can get infrequent spawns in flower patches! There's also TWO fixed spawns outside of Los Platos at 1/4096 each that you could reset Good luck!

[@queenthefangirl268]

i love your laugh

[@ThatOneShortieHo]

My first shiny in Scarlet was a random Mudsbray, i caught it abd named it Sweetheart and made him part of my team My first in violet was a Rookiedee which i made part of my team instatly

[@julieorchard5361]

Spoiler alert: Hey Ryan, now that you've completed this (besides Gimmighoul and Gholdengo), why not try go for the bonus forms like I'm doing? Example: Rotoms appliance forms, the other version of Toxtricity, etc. By the way, I'VE LOVED YOUR VIDS

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

I honestly might! Or maybe a different living dex!

[@xandervanbrunt4609]

So how many hours did it take to find 1 shiny? 🤔

Playing scarlet and violet really gives you eagle eyes (especially if you’re a shiny hunter)

[@roundswewin894]

20:05 I think u missed a shiny nacli on the left…

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

Lightning and angle making a normal one look a little bit shiny imo!

[@JakuraithePrimalWarrior]

I really hate how badly they mistreated the shiny Armarouge and Ceruledge. If they swapped the color palettes for the opposite game (yellow and orange for Ceruledge, and deep blue and purple for Armarouge), it would be so much better.

[@KidMeme-dp9le]

what's the pokemon at 18:05? I can't really make out a mon from that distance. (also wow, 200+ shinies. nice)

26:16 shiny fomantis in the back.. Or it looks yellowish at least. Its on the far left (that or my eyes are tricking me)

It's crazy how many pokemon look shiny in this game! I'll have to check the extended clip in my clips archive!

28:20 wait im confused i though Maushold didn't have ane evo animation it just evolves "offscreen"?

[@RyanWasTakenToo]

I thought this too, but then it did the evolve animation when it won the fight!

[@CoffeeAhead]

it only shows the animation if it levels up from a fight it participated in
