[@NickandSimons]

The biggest myth is that Niantic actually cares about their playerbase

[@Sketchybird]

and it’s busted

[@noobtube2799]

indeed

[@Radiation450]

😂😂😂

[@corbanlunt9862]

Can confirm that the shiny ditto trick in raids actually did work for a few days before they fixed the glitch

[@TruInfernosPokemonGoAdventure]

this is correct. And you had to switch out your ditto with another pokemon & switch it back before it could appear as shiny (or something along those lines). However, they fixed this glitch.

[@bradeetaituha3973]

In the Anime and games Ditto just copy the pokemon it see's in front of it. So if it's not a shiny, it won't be after Ditto uses transform

[@ItsTimeSteve_]

The first myth is confirmed but says busted.

[@elmerinurmi9552]

True

[@rlryxn]

yknow, when he said you cant get a shiny as your starter, its not true. i have seen screen recordings of a spoofer get a shiny starter when they first start the game, but it doesnt appear as shiny and never will be. it is secretly a shiny though

The 2017/2016 trades are guaranteed to go lucky if you have less the 15 lucky pokemon in your account. It fairly easy to research.

[@jarboen]

This never came up in my research. Good to know!

[@marco_n]

Does this work if only one of the Pokemon is from 2016 and the other is a different year? Or do they both need to be 2016?

[@Superjr7568]

The shiny starter is actually possible when I first started I got a shiny Charmander and still have it as a charizard to this day

[@PoGoTecHoo]

H&M!!! In the background!

[@PoGoTecHoo]

Sweden! Sweden! Sweden!

[@RaxeyVR]

Guys I’m still hitting the griddy in the 🦇💀💀

[@dublxml]

4:05 Necrozma will be coming to go if you look at the list

[@Pehmokettu]

At one point nearly everyone used Celebi with Doom Desire in PvP. It was annoying. 😅

[@xthe_moonx]

u need to do tests of catching nihaligo without dropping 10 balls. just try excellent throws on all balls. if u dont catch much, then u can almost confirm the myth.

[@PoolKid75]

I still have my original Charmander from 2016 and its IVS are 0, 1, and 2. I thought that myth would be busted.

[@898929]

Yea I have my original squirtle and it’s not 10/10/10. Maybe at some point they changed it but it didn’t launch like that.

[@briandeeg4853]

10/10/10 pikachu, caught on 07/10/16.. Well its not a pika anymore.. Some asshat evolved it.. Lol

[@123qbdb]

there should be a ditto cup

[@harrymaguire74]

Always a good day when Mystic7 uploads 😊😊!

[@Thewolfblaze743]

Finally a comment that isn’t a bot

[@PoGoTecHoo]

People who thinks MYSTIC7 is the pokemon go GOAT🐐 👇

[@Sethshadowknigt]

You need to go to single type cup great league edition and look witch pokemon cannot be used you need to scroll down and you find necrozma and yes I liked my own comment

[@wel3videos855]

Jake is hard carrying these vids fr 🤪

[@edgeygaming9831]

Guys comment some myths so he can*BUST* them in the next video 😊

[@mikeypascarella]

Is all the starters a shondo

[@profeta4177]

Ask The Gods.

[@GaboLC]

It feels it's like the 5th time Mystic7 upload this video

[@PorkChop202]

For the trading one, if you trade a Pokémon caught in 2017 or before, it is a guaranteed lucky for the first 15 trades

[@damianodea9889]

Only if you don't have ten or more lucky Pokémon in your storage. 😊

[@damianodea9889]

And they have to be from July/August 2016, IIRC.

[@omalor]

Mystic7 confirms a Myth, but the graphics say "Myth busted".

[@BigStickMan09]

The ball myth, is not about the misses, it’s certain balls that have higher chance for capture. Ball 5,6 have higher chance than first 4 balls . Ball 8,9 even higher chance. And 15,16,18,19 have the highest.

[@driesjansen7703]

You count the first as the first thrown ball or when it's at 1 left? And how did you learn about it?

[@legrandchandonnet6530]

Can we really have the go fest music with pikachu rockstar? Because he has been my buddy and I never heard the music since go fest.

[@rpg2543]

The end of the video made me remember that I raid moltres flew and I couldn’t get it 😭

[@ginch2]

myth: you can use a started pokemon in the go battle leugue

[@Alex_192.]

If you’re wondering why he was hoping it isn’t a shiny is that shiny legendary* raid bosses have a 100% catch rate *legendary, mythical or ultra beast

[@AlphineWolf]

Next time you come up for community day, drop by science world for the official meetup

[@ethanlawless5730]

Any Pokémon you trade from 2016 or 2017 is guaranteed to be lucky no matter what.

[@Stargazer238]

I actually got a shiny squirtle on community day and it was my starter. Once I caught it though, it turned into a normal one! I'm so mad!

[@dancarrick4604]

hey just so everyone knows, only ONE of the traded pokemon has to be from 2016 or 2017 for a guaranteed lucky pokemon! save those rare oldies and only use one at a time!

[@32bars-]

So what about the music stuff now?😂

[@lanjilanji976]

Bro i got two galarian birds in one incense

[@LoverLore]

At 7:27 , his Smoochum is named “Mini Minaj”, a reference to the name people have been giving to the Pokémon, Jynx, “Nicki Minaj” bc it looks like it could be her

[@PotionMaster21_Official]

Who else hates it when people say "First" when there are 50 other people before them

[@Pm-nh9ly]

I am a free to play player and I got a shiny Niolego first raid. It is my first shiny legendary

[@driesjansen7703]

Congrats!

[@joshualyman11]

when trading any pokémon from 2016-2017 will be always be lucky only for your first 20 trades though

[@davidmatheny398]

My favorite Pokemon go myth is - Shinys evade my account like I'm the IRS

[@SonicTheH12370]

Mystic! Lugia is coming back!

[@WhoTookMewtwocoder]

Minor thing in the vid, but you got the same Nihilego twice in a row. 2201 CP.

[@Biento-x9d]

I caught a random shiny Ditto, I think thats the "rarest" pokemon now

[@tordy_1]

No its not lol

[@morotzgaming3311]

Bro has Done this video 10 times😂

[@TreyMart1n]

Your first 15 trades with pokemon from 2016 or 2017 are guaranteed to be lucky! So use this trick to try and get shundo luckys! I just found this out recently, surprised you didnt know!

[@SMGxEnWHYc46]

Shiny ditto has been confirmed that it will not be a shiny if the shiny has not been released, it has also been confirmed that anything 2016 is guaranteed lucky

[@ParvizPardayev]

Did anyone else notice he had a Pokémon names mini Minaj during the 2016 trade? 😂

[@deadend_64]

Mine wasn't 101010?

[@jarboen]

From what I found scouring the Silph Road forums, the Lucky Trade stats increases with the combined age of the 2 trade Pokemons. It remains at lowest % up to a combined age of 1 year old and keeps rising until a combined age of 3 years where statistics state 20% chance for lucky. My Pokemon Trades with a combined age of 3 years or more are currently 100% lucky. Also just done around 6 trades of them oldies... so my Trade Pool Results is by no means a definitive compared to the thousands of trades the Road forums were working with.

[@andrewgonzales7216]

I'd love to play some pokemon go with you or even do some trades! I'm from Colorado too

[@darkrootambush3860]

Didn’t you already do all of these in another video?

[@SlickTater]

I didn’t know about the pikachu thing. Mine is a best buddy and I didn’t think to turn the music on

[@White__Wolf97]

Great Vid as always keep up the good work Brandon!

[@brianhaight1454]

Did you already use your master ball

[@williezhao]

Is this trade myth before or after the release of the increase chance of getting lucky Pokémon

[@Only_Memez]

2021 Pokémon have such good lucky luck

[@UrLocal_DigitalArtist]

Congratulations to niantic 7 anniversary

[@milesrobertson22]

Myth: Brandon thinks every Pokémon is the rarest Pokémon

[@jonakyler5975]

4:11 You can’t use shedninja(I think)

[@thesuckynorsegamer5747]

Any Pokémon 2016 July and august are ALWAYS lucky trades confirmed by Niantic

[@lelouchchanbc]

Do you realize combination between legendary bird Kantoian and Galarian Legendary Bird event or it just coincident. Dark flame event = Galarian and Kantoian Moltres. Another two possible events in near future Fighting Light event = Galarian and Kantoian Zapdos. Trainers choose either Fighting or electric type pokemon. Passimian debut in this event. Psychic Frost event = Galarian and Kantoian Articuno. Trainers choose either Psychic and Ice type pokemon. No psychic or ice type left no debut in Generation 7 in pokemon go but replace with water type Pokemon Wishiwashi or Pyukumuku. Lastly, I guess the mysterious legendary pokemon that happen during week to Global Pokemon Festival is Necrozma! Signalling next season will focus on 4 no debut Ultra Beast, third Cosmog, Dusk Mane, Dawn Wings and Ultra Necrozma!!!

[@perry92964]

i have a myth or theory that people who spend more money get shiny's more often but i dont know how you would confirm it or even test it, community day excluded

[@Chef_Kranis]

Didn’t he upload a video like this a few months ago? No hate just curious

[@Silvison6502]

The Pikachu one isn’t true? Is it not meloetta but you have to pick the certain form of Pikachu?

[@calebduarte7836]

I got a myth, the last ball in a raid encounter has a boosted chance of catching the Pokémon.

[@damianodea9889]

He tested that one, and it's confirmed through far more rigorous Silph Road research.

[@MartinDay-y1r]

Keep up the good work mystic

[@barnavida6292]

I was suprised of this myth

[@thebunGD]

How does he know he’s going to catch the pokemon before it’s even on the last shake

[@driesjansen7703]

On the last ball if the Pokémon doesn't instantly break out you have it

[@thebunGD]

@@driesjansen7703 But he said he caught it when it was on the first shake

[@PokemongoPlayer1]

@@thebunGDfirst shake means instant catch

[@thebunGD]

@@PokemongoPlayer1 When i catch legendaries it normally flees after the first shake

[@scottbianchi2975]

Regular Dittos will turn shiny if you fight a shiny thing.

[@commishguy]

You should look up the definition of myth. Those arent myths.

[@alisondalton9061]

Fun fact, 2016 Pokemon that are traded are a guaranteed lucky

[@trevorboys3896]

Any Pokemon traded from 2016 goes lucky.

[@TheBlueKingdom928]

NEW VIDEOOOOOOOO, Whens your next streAM?

[@LizOquendo]

This video is very useful thank you

[@nickallbee7156]

Real fans know that his first Pokémon caught ever was from doing the pikachu “myth”

[@boop944]

is it me or ive seen this video before 😂😂

[@whynosaveme8041]

4:03 you can't use shedinja

[@Channing-ks9km]

Mystic I just wanted to let you know I have the full galarian trio!

[@Motorbike_18]

How do you get ditto?

[@determineddaaf3]

Since Smeargle can technically copy the moveset of any pokemon, could you get a Smeargle with transform and use it in Go battle league and raids?

[@DarkManSRuns]

There are some moves Smeargle can’t copy and Transform is one of them. Smeargle will just have a random move instead of Transform

[@kjogreenz]

The trade myth is confirmed. I did 14 trades from my dads old account and all 14 turned out lucky.

[@ladislasayano9406]

I only have like 3 Pokemon from 2016 left... However I heard there are just 15 trades with 2016 \ 2017 for lucky trade quota

[@DrFlozz]

I love u man,i follow you for a long time,hence thats why i know that these myths are almost the same you did in already 2 or more videos..

[@Oscarzillagameing]

Ditto os usable in teh battle arena if you asd him to a tag but click there

[@dominator1341]

What about keldeo can you use him

[@ryansurowiec7983]

I knew about the first myth because all those years ago in mystics first Pokémon go video he got pikachu first!

[@Frevralnr34]

Didnt you upload this video like a few montjs ago..?

[@Lilsalam]

How did they traded so many isn't a limit for one a day?

[@Therealsnipe]

I’ve been doing my own trick were if you flip a basic poke ball upside down and throw it without a curve it catches the Pokémon’s first try I’ve made this idea please mention me if u try this and works for u 😊

[@AstroPC96]

You: Waste 10 balls Game: Haha lol, NOOB!

[@kungjocke9446]

How the hell did you get so many Shaymin and Hoopas?

[@lucid3563]

I did the glitch to get pikachu as my starter. I went and caught it and now it's been best buddied and is level 40 going on level 50. It has all of it's attacks.

[@Ryan-ko7sy]

Wait but didn’t he did a video of busting 20 myths?

[@gwil-js8gn]

I thought this when I saw this

[@DemonKingTanjiro_michelepio]

I caught shiny zapdos from the Battle league!!Yeaa

Hello Mystic! I love pokemon go too!

[@evaturek1023]

MYSTIC7 i caught a shiny Blastoise today im so happy

[@juniorponce7206]

me and a friend do this now with 2018 and older pokemon works all the time

[@AzuDemdonis]

Iam pretty shure i throw my Starter away and shortly after a new Charmander spawned with better Cp´s. Pretty often i throw a Pokemon away because of whack Cp´s and a better one spawns shortly after, and they are rare Pokemons not Commons/no Nest.

[@adonpatrick9527]

How do people get so much more candy from transferring? I only get 1, is it based on player level?

[@far22186]

How does trading just one pokemon prove anything

[@iamglobtv]

pokemon from 2016, and 2017 guarantee a lucky trade but you only get 25 trades an account and they add 5 per new year, so next year 2018 will guarantee lucky trades.... I'm saving abunch of 2018's
