The weirdly crazy reactions seem weird for finding such easy shinies lol

[@Nostromo_TK]

Probably more because of the race aspect than the shiny aspect I'd imagine. You can hear Darkrai panicking in the background of the Ralts catch.

[@lloyd4537]

they set the odds to 1/250

[@DoctorFlynn]

@@lloyd4537 Yeah I’m well aware. Which makes the reactions that much weirder considering they aren’t full odds or anything close to it.

[@IcyNipz]

Even with 1/250 odds you lose a huge lead just looking for a shiny for 15-30 mins

[@_ninjam4ster_]

In a possible next shiny race I think it would be nice if you have a timer, just so we know how much time it took

[@camshep7145]

Right this makes it look like it was easy to find the shinies but whole time it probably took a day or 2 of months stop resetting and stuff

[@danielemichelino5344]

honestly I think 1/250 as shiny odds is way to high. do a straight 512 (like for masuda with shiny charm) so its not imossibly difficult but not fast eather. 1/250 ist like running around with a perm pokeradar 38-39 chain. Its almost a gifted shiny.

[@minothemandarin5167]

I think the challenge is less about spending ages trying to find a shiny but trying to beat the game as fast as possible while also figuring out when to hunt for a shiny with out falling too far behind

[@davidtrieb13]

btw i dont think the chance is that - i think it should be at the 4k thing - half the old one - but in this video it does sure seem like the rate is way higher? did they use a mod or smth?

just to put in perspective of how easy these odds are to get a shiny in this run. Imagine being on a 39 chain at all times through a run lmao. Also the size of pop off from each person really tells me all I need to know. Cute "challenge" idea and i see your working with other creators to expand a little but man 1/250? Why not lower it all the way to 1/99? Why stop there 1/2 odds? Fuck it right? Just a pinch of advice before I go is: I have a feeling you would do great playing minecraft with idiotly pointless rules that the audience will look over like you expected this to
