A long hunt, almost 3x odds, but so worth it to get one that is also Adamant nature! Insane. Congrats Steve!

[@originalmm4120]

The patience this man has to do this is terrifying

[@ciaranevans666]

Go look at his heart gold soul silver dialgia palkia and giratina those ones are terrifying lol

[@ViperZ1807]

Welp, he got every roamer in the whole franchise at one point AND a shiny safari zone Chansey so this one is reasonable lol

[@mattmc1234]

i asked him on his stream once how do you have the patience and he replied saying, every shiny is guarenteed it just depends on how long you are willing to hunt for it.

[@ciaranevans666]

@@mattmc1234 brilliant

[@acebooncoon11]

I did it in 6 weeks for shiny Arceus. My longest hunt ever haha

[@ethanwenn7508]

Congrats Steve, that took far too long 😆 I’m gonna pretend that it was one of my fossils that got you the shiny and ride that high horse

[@firelifeblizzard8782]

It was!

[@Sonikks]

Dude I think it was!

[@BlueBoyPhin]

after 12K that thing Better be adamant! grats Steve!

[@betabugxyz6274]

Congratulations on the shiny! I love this channel so much, all the lengths you go through is a unrivaled.

[@grantdeluxe5274]

Adamant is absolutely nutty, congrats!

[@Fakeditto]

The imitation game is an amazingly good film steve, and congrats! super happy to see you continuing this DTQ. -theurgist

[@BlueVacktor]

SUCH a good shiny! Congrats Steve!

[@KIJJER12]

I love this shiny! Going to hunt it myself soon. Congrats on the great find!

[@ShinyHunterGojia]

Congrats man I just started this hunt as well. I'm also doing 12 at a time. Also thumbnails have looked clean lately.

[@SHRicky]

What a long hunt, congrats!! shiny cranidos looks so good!

[@SaySevy]

Congrats! Great shiny and the better fossil throughout both games!

[@3lc0rr3A]

Not sure why but this hunt was so draining for me to focus on. Congrats Steve!

[@Sonikks]

Thanks!

[@greensaint6506]

Another amazing shiny! Congratulations Sonikks!

[@lightlysaltedkiwi3672]

Nice that you got your little red dino! Such a good color

[@robertussin005]

Insanely jealous of this adamant boy. I just started my hunt for cranidos in platinum, and I’m just hoping for a nature that isn’t bad! Major congrats on this. I pray mine doesn’t take this long though

[@Foxtrot12345]

Dang, Cranidos is such a nice shiny to get! I love it's evolution as well; I have one in Pokemon Go and I use it all the time. Still on the hunt for shiny Gible in the underground, but I'm determined to get it one way or another ;) Good luck on your Bronzar hunt!

[@arthurmorgan2989]

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Must have been so great to finally get it I'm happy for you bro :) I haven't shiny hunted in a while but ima try and get one before new years

[@jordanneate3790]

Imitation game is a great film :D would love love love to see all you shinys one day in all your games :) great job

[@mobalanchi]

I really want to hunt this but I’m stuck on the brief case simulator. 😔 Just passed 9,000 resets without even seeing a shiny Starly.

[@irany0977]

Still on that same hunt myself. Started pretty much the day the game came out. I'm almost getting worried that one of their updates implemented a shiny lock or something, but there is of course no evidence indicating as such.

[@Zaltiz]

@@irany0977 I can tell you that as of the most recent patch (1.1.3) there isn't a shiny lock on the starters. I had the same irrational worry, but I got my Shiny Turtwig on Dec 23 which was a day after the patch.

[@irany0977]

@@Zaltiz Thanks. Good to know that it's not an impossibility, but rather my luck is just trash lol

[@luigilewis692]

Did you get a shiny starter yet?

[@armandopena4066]

Adamant, woow that's amazing!

[@Steevy_12]

Congrat's !

[@samashton6112]

Congrats on the shiny, also yeah Imitation Game is a great film :)

[@shinysparkle2]

Congrats with the Cranidos almost triple odds is tuff.

[@shoto_9]

Amazing video bro you deserve more publicity🙏🏼

[@InuyashaTT]

the imitation game made me cry that movie is so good. congrats on the shiny!!!

[@rudifield5894]

Got mine a little over 4600 and I thought I was unlucky! Congratz man!!

[@VisorakMark]

Beautiful! Congrats! You inspired me to shiny hunt my starter in BD.

[@Sonikks]

Good luck!

[@MrRager-zh2ns]

Congrats on this shiny! I got my cranidos a few days back as well. Currently have shiny piplup, cranidos, and budew on the team. Next hunt might either be ponyta or heracross until I get to dialga

[@danielve09]

Just found a budew today in eterna forest and was planning on doing craniados as well! Good luck on your next hunts

[@UltimateBlobrex]

Congrats on shiny Cranidos!

[@AIgeneratedAlien]

Congrats!

[@shad0w275]

Well done on staying with the hunt, 12k is way longer than the average. Shame you didn’t get to finish the imitation game, it’s a very good movie!

[@Sonikks]

I finished it! Good movie, enjoyed it a lot.

[@EasterIslander13]

I love that shiny so much. I hatched one in bdsp I should have done it this way but I wasn't thinking clearly lol

[@rotaugenandi]

Wow Congraz took even longer than my Machop in the underground that came after 11062 encounters

[@itzm2805]

Hey Steve! Congrats on the hunt!

[@bigkafta5863]

Insane bro congratulations I got mine after 320 revived

[@dylanmcpeake7006]

Jesus this is long for a original Gen 4 hunt

[@tapuchris3329]

Congratulations!

[@oktaykiuseler5348]

Congrats. I was wondering are you gonna do a dtq for bdsp?and are you gonna finish some other dtq videos like soul silver or sapphire?

[@Sonikks]

Thanks. I'm doing a shiny run of Brilliant Diamond. I just hit 5,000 for Bronzor. I'm also just passed 9,000 for Ralts in Sapphire phase 5. Hunting them right now. I'll go back to SoulSilver one day!

[@shinyhuntersmo4982]

Congrats Steve! I got this one about a week ago. I feel kinda bad because I got him in the furst 2k. But this shinies amazing. Congrats!

[@Sonikks]

Don't feel bad, congrats!

[@sethy4069]

congrats on the shiny!

[@TheBanefulBunker]

Hey that looks pretty nice it takes the term red head to the next level

[@Delusionall-]

🔥

[@shiny3832]

Some things never change and in your case it’s having really unfortunate luck with fossil hunts lmao congrats on finally getting it though!!! ✨✨✨

[@Sonikks]

I have a Gen 5 Shiny Fossil run coming up soon and I swear, every one of them is coming in overodds. Thanks!

[@jetstreamjackie3437]

Wow, this is a great one!!

[@neocortex3529]

GG BR0!! Finallyyyyy 😪♥️

[@pvantongeren9178]

It look so great wow

[@oBuLLzEyEo1013]

My favorite Rock Pokemon. Fat head with the bald spot, friar tuck...

[@sevuvidramus1717]

Gorgeous fossil shiny ✨

[@kaboomtv3853]

good movie grats btw

[@McLumy]

This is a hunt that I reallly wanna do, it looks so good. The only reason I can’t is because I am hunting all of the mons that have new evolutions in Arceus. I have Cyndaquil, Oshawott, Basculin, (and a Zorua which doesn’t really count, but thought it would be a fun hunt,) and am currently going for Scyther and Rowlet.

[@Hitoruru]

You can save front desk and do reset work too :)

[@Sonikks]

That's literally what I did?

[@PanosLog]

And adamant (HELLO!!!!) Noice

[@Zaltiz]

Nice shiny! I'm at 2k for Buizel doing a lvl 10 Repel Trick on Route 205. It's a 50/50 for Buizel or Shellos. I'd be fine phasing once or twice but I won't stop until I get Buizel. After that I will be doing this hunt but with Shieldon, hopefully it doesn't take me too long.

[@kennynakawaki]

Congrats Steve! Not tooo bad for a fossil hunt right? 😂 you get to pretties more in the story now! I wonder what your next target will be?

[@rudydaly1451]

i just watched gage perez get shiny cranidos in 96 restores then see this lmao u got it tho!

[@flandulce]

My Combee hunt has been going on for a while, got male one at only 111 encounters. On phase 2 at 2742 encounters. Hoping it won’t take be double odds, got cute charm Lopunny in order to make it easier. Wish me luck, worried I’ll get another male!😭

[@hanswnjohnson2536]

I just started hunt cranidos, right now im at 2148 hope I get it within this week or sometime next week

[@kitsaitogames]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

[@yommmrr]

That's such a cruisey way to hunt. Would that be one of the fastest methods?

[@Sonikks]

Yup!

[@DuhTip]

Nice job!

[@Cainb23]

ok i see you have another one of my members while i still dont have piplup

[@Jigglypoop97]

I love The Imitation Game!

[@lillobster9355]

Got a shiny Darumaka on shield in just 3 eggs.

[@Masterfriedrice]

Congrats bro I am currently at 3700 for mine hopefully I will get mine soon ...

[@kokis47hshd96]

i remember you were always leaving the room before giving the guy the fossil in the life stream

[@kokis47hshd96]

congrats btw

[@hugoforcada2167]

This is my favourite fossil ✨ ✨

[@flemaster12]

Ah the best Pokémon

[@733jaguar]

I am using Masuda in BDSP for a shiny Cranidos myself, and I’m already impatient at 300 Eggs 😢😂

[@jizendoorn8921]

Congrats! Can someone explain how this hunt without resetting works?

[@Sonikks]

Thanks. What do you mean without resetting? You reset to try again.

[@jizendoorn8921]

Oh yes I tried. You have like 10 fossils or so and try them, if its not shiny you reset/restart?

[@samspeaks2016]

I just got a shiny Cranidos yesterday @ 2293 resets. Ended up a mild nature :/ oh well, it's still shiny

[@Mcfeelster]

25 fossils per reset and i JUST hit 4600 hoping to get it soon

[@KevinDFuller94]

Meanwhile I've been hunting for an Adamant natured shiny snorelax in soulsilver and I've found shiny snorlax twice but the first time it was hasty nature and I just found it again yesterday and it was bold nature and I was synchronizing for adamant nature both times 😭😭 Give me your luck!!

[@angjelloskalivjoti2625]

Lets gooo

[@DaemonShake]

Just hit 2k resets on mine still no shiny what a great one this is

[@Cadeno_]

Currently shiny hunting turtwig at the start of the game it’s taking a long time

[@_Bendy]

I got mine exactly on Christmas it took forever i was at over 5100 resets at the end

[@aspifouette]

Imitation game is quite good indeed

[@bk_therealbananaking2084]

Can you soft reset this?

[@Sonikks]

That's literally what I do...

[@FRANKENBERRY.]

im still going for my shiny turtwig i plan to do this and maybe a fossil hunt before legends of arceus comes out. am i the only one who thinks GF coulda spaced these games out a little further i haven't even had a chance to begin my living dex yet

[@Sonikks]

Yeah I agree completely lol

[@omer5575]

nice

[@tinyarticuno]

mr strange

[@playkawaii2104]

859!

[@TheN30N71G3R123]

Hopefully my fossil was the shiny one haha

[@Sonikks]

Thanks again dude!

[@RandalfElVikingo]

I bet your xmas tree is albino or something lol.

[@aanyaarora5758]

Crainidos is not extinct anymore

[@cryptohodler522]

adamant?WTF

[@alexandersorgenfrei4840]

FIRST

[@penguin3461]

I don't understand why you wouldn't just breed it?

[@Sonikks]

I'm a full odds hunter. It says you've been subbed for two years to me. You should know that by now! :D

[@fr-espyy8053]

@@Sonikks assuming you bred full odds, restoring fossils would be faster since you don’t have to hatch the eggs correct?

[@Sonikks]

yeah 100%. Breeding full odds is only really worth it for egg moves & exclusivity (Mr Mime in Emerald, for example)

[@_Bendy]

And getting the shiny as fast as possible also isn't really fun tbh
