At the least he would tell you to wait until they patched things up (if they ever decide to do so, probably not) he hasn’t said a single word about the poor graphics and absolutely abysmal performance.

He is spawning like 20 Pokemon per 20 seconds with high shiny rolls... and he's pretty much recording all the time. He spends more time recording in a day than the average player plays in a day.

Hopefully this can help if anyone else has struggled with this too. When I made the sandwhich for shiny flying encounters I used the Sour and Sweet herba Mystica with the according ingredients from the chart. I was confused as to why I wasn’t getting extra scyther encounters besides the normal spawns. It turns out the sweet and sour herba mysticas put together gave me capture power flying instead of encounter rate flying so just be wary of that!

[@annenxf]

I noticed that today too when trying to make one for Poison to hunt Shroodle, I wasn't sure if it was just for Poison though. Guess I can't use the ones I have now until I get some other Herbas.

[@mintysnivy]

@@annenxf have you tried jefe's recipes? they were covered in the last video on sandwiches AJP did and they've only failed me when i accidentally drop all my ingredients lol, but there's one for a multi herb sandwich that uses 2 herba of any type along with a variety of other ingredients depending on type

[@annenxf]

​@@mintysnivyI went to that video and found the any Herba mystica sheet from Jefe, same result Encounter Power turns into Catching Power. Looks like it is just a result of mixing Sweet/Sour. Kind of sucks since those are the only 2 I have right now, hoping I get some raid drops today.

This is a very fun way to research and find shinies you're seeking out without relying on outbreaks! The main thing I see outbreaks still holding up on this is sandwich-less searching. Sometimes, you see an outbreak and acknowledge that you haven't gotten like any Herba Mystica drops lately but still want to hunt. I can see outbreaks being good for those moments. But if you've got the Herba to spend, this definitely should be a go-to.

[@Lil0toto]

I had a ton of success with this method. I've really enjoyed doing it like this instead of the mass outbreaks, and was even able to find a shiny slowpoke this way by just having my pokemon autobattle them until it refused to attack one of them haha. Since I didn't have to worry about the outbreak ending from killing too many. And within the 30m of that psychic sandwich I was able to also find a shiny Bronzor and Flittle. If you can isolate the pokemon's type, this method is amazing.

[@hoodiemuffin7715]

I couldn't wait to try this method out once I finally got two salty herbs. And I got the exact ones I wanted! (Klawf and Glimmora btw) I actually got really lucky and got the first one in only a few minutes. The second one I got in the last few minutes! This was super helpful! Thx Austin 😁

Charcadet’s Shiny variant is so deceptive. You really gotta have a good eye to spot the contacts the lil buddy is sporting in the overworld

[@ge789]

While I didn’t use this strategy for Shiny Hunting, I did use a sandwich to try and find a Frigabax in the area near the Ghost Gym, by using a sandwich boosting Dragon encounter power. That worked out well, since I found one almost immediately, alongside a bunch of others, when I could barely find one before the sandwich.

[@samphillips9598]

You can just cycle around

[@DaMaster012]

You don't even need a sandwich. There's a dedicated tera Frigibax spawn to the north of the highest peak in Paldea, nearby the river. And since it's a tera spawn, it will by default be a higher level and have better IVs than most open world spawns.

Hands down my favorite youtuber! Not only cause of the games you make videos about, but because everything! The content, the style of your videos, your personality, your honesty, no clickbait whatsoever…its just so comfortable watching your videos and im not a person that normally invests much time watching videos on youtube but i literally try to watch every single video you post (if i have the time to) just because i like them so much! So thanks for all the work you put in your videos and keep ’em great uploads coming dude! Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹
