[@PokeToT]

i have no idea why they made carvanha's shiny so perfect! congrats on the quick hunt! and LOL i had no idea sharpedo looked like that in colosseum! weird!

[@carltonleboss]

Yeah, Shiny Carvanha looks sick

[@Alphax1251]

Your videos inspired me to start doing a bit of hunting myself and I recently got a shiny Pikachu in Viridian forest after 6150 RE's. you're super underappreciated

[@bigplantfan630]

Pikachu in Viridian? That’s so rare, congrats dude!

[@BlueBobsCinema]

Carvanha looks so cool! I kind of wish they kept that color scheme on Sharpedo, congrats!

[@matthewdressler1688]

One year for Shark Week, I decided to try and chain fish for a shiny Carvanha in Omega Ruby on this same route. I ended up getting the 5% Sharpedo instead

[@Hamw2]

My favorite part of these videos is seeing the shinys in Coliseum! Such a nostalgic game and its fun seeing the Pokemon there!

[@Cecilia-wj8vw]

Congrats on the Carvanha! Almost at the end of the dtq, good luck on the bagon! ✨

[@Brisingr-bx3fx]

Your dedication is unmatched man. I've been watching your videos for months and you're definitely my favorite shiny hunting channel. Keep up the great work!

[@ethandimos7134]

Congrats Steve! Carvanha is a beautiful shiny and sharpedo looks very clean. Good luck on Bagon!

[@Cosmikaze]

I find it amazing how you just keep on doing DTQ after DTQ. I've done it a single time in SoulSilver, and that was enough shiny hunting to keep me satisfied for a while after.

[@cunkbumcket8217]

lets goooooo, i have had your videos in the background keeping me going, just got shiny charmander in fire red after 400 soft resets.

[@MajesticPale]

That back sprite looks menacing! Congrats Steve on the awesome shiny!

[@ibrahimghori6257]

Congratulations on the shiny. Carvanha and Sharpedo have good shinies. I wish the best of luck on your next hunt.

[@UrBoiBlazer]

Wow congrats on Carvanha Steve just Bagon left to go! Haven't tried a fishing hunt in gen 3 yet but your hunts like this, barboach and corphish really make me inspired to one day!!

[@brucelau2023]

Sonikks DUDE congrats on the shiny carvanha !!!!! good luck on that bagon my guy !!

[@FreakSlimeHere]

Congrats on that awesome sharpedo! Both of those mons look absolutely beautiful. I really like the idea of doing a shiny living dex. You have some of that done! Best of luck with that bagon! :)

[@psykoplumo4935]

Yoooo GG my lord ! Always a big pleasure to see some Sonikks content ! Love from France 🥰

[@Jocoshin]

This shiny is so hot man! Grats Steve!!

[@Pink.Experience]

Such an awesome shiny! Congrats on your pink shark my dude!

[@TetrahedronDash]

Congrats on the Shiny Carvanha! I'm currently at 1847 RE's, hunting for a Shiny Electrike in Sapphire (this is my first time doing RE's. I hope I don't phase too much)! I still can't believe I finally got Shiny Treecko yesterday, after 3 and a half years of hiatus on the hunt!

[@jacktheunderdog]

Carvanha in colosseum is SICK. Congrats!

[@shinysparkle2]

That carvanha backsprite is crazy Congrats on this beautifull shiny!

[@thepeople7030]

GG for the shiny piranah and good luck for the bagon (Your DTQ rocks, really good shiny choice).

[@Gutswitdaboof710]

Congrats m8 good luck on all ur hunts after failing a 5% parasect during safari week I caught some golden eggs like a day or two ago

[@Its2EZbaby]

Carvanha looks crazy in colosseum!! Great vid as always!

[@domonicramey3960]

Congrats Steve! Best of luck on the Bagon!

[@therewisfiles8437]

One of the absolute best gen 3 shinies ever! Congrats!

[@RCCPLL7]

Hello Steve, congrats on your Carvanha! You inspired me with the DTQ, i'm doing the same on Omega Ruby (odds are a bit more pleasent lol), i just got a shiny Treecko. I hope you'll do an Elite4 video at the end of this hunt!

[@erickconde7823]

Congrats on the carvanha Steve!! I got mine in the same route trying to find a good nature one and found a shiny one instead. Wish you luck on your next hunt!!

[@JollibeenosHasYourCoordinates]

I love how even though he's done this so many times before, he still greets Shinies with "Shiny (name)! No way!"

[@cecillewolters1995]

Man this is such a beautiful shiny ✨ I jus don’t understand why you just don’t evolve it if you don’t want too. It is your dream quest after all. Besides that, I have a vivid childhood memory of the early internet days in which I saw a pokemon similar to Carvanha on the internet as one of the new pokemon for Crystal and it had the shiny colors. Was really disappointed that the awesome tropical fish wasn’t in Crystal, but I was surprised a lot when I saw the fish in other colors on Sapphire! Hope one day to catch this one myself too, such a beauty. Congrats Steve, have a nice day :)

[@Motis73]

GGs ! Congrats on this amazing hunt and good luck for bagon !

[@deideraakatsuki6215]

HELLO CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SHINY CARVAHNA!! IT LOOKS AMAZING! I have a question, how many hours do you shiny hunt in a day or a week?

[@JermTheSigma]

Congratulations!✨

[@jacobrobert0]

Such an unreal shiny. Big congrats on another R/S fishing hunt!

[@slncbrkr]

Dude what a beautiful shiny! Congrats 👌

[@polgara888]

Congrats! Carvanha has such a lovely shiny! :)

[@Bureikusaru]

Please do a gen 3 shiny living dex that would be an awesome journey to follow over a long time. Even seeing the current state organised in order so far would be awesome. keep up the awesome hunts!

[@partyhatkid9940]

Congrats! I also think Sharpedo look more pink than purple :)

[@jojoistaken1]

I'm hunting shiny sharpedo in pokemon sword, nice to have this watch while I hunt.

[@jojoistaken1]

got it lmao

[@damien6159]

Congrats !

[@LeafsLegend]

Carvanha is so cool, definitely one of the best 3rd Gen shinies IMO. I'm so glad they didn't give Sharpedo's shiny the Colosseum treatment in the RSE with that horrid purplish hue/filter.

[@turtly4360]

this really is a beautiful shiny, congratulations

[@alexstrejc3004]

Carvanha was my first shiny. I was falling asleep while trying to catch feebas and i heard i weird noise and looked at the screen to a different colored pokemon i was addicted.

[@playkawaii2104]

Congrats, I had never seen shiny Carvanha and its so cool! 803!

[@xernoshd4505]

i love hoenn, already looking forward to you completing this quest and take on the elite 4.

[@estelle5798]

Love this line, two perfect shinies

[@lazychill3112]

Congrats man...definitely a god tier shiny

[@Vxtxrx]

Not a huge fan of Sharpedo's shiny but Carv is absolutely one of the best in the gen. Big gz.

[@_HypeR_7]

Good job! And good luck on shiny Bagon

[@UltimateBlobrex]

Congrats on Shiny Carvanha! It's soooo good, but Sharpedo isn't great too me, I'm like that with most of the purple/pink water pokemon, just cause we got so many of them in Gen 3.

[@dimitrisfragoulis9046]

Beautifull Shiny!!! Nice man !!

[@tyranitararmaldo]

Colosseum Carvanha is incredible!

[@Seth_rs]

Looks so sick in colosseum

congrats

[@berb-182]

Congrats on the under odds Carvahna Steve! One of my favorite Hoenn shinies…glad I got mine under odds as well, those fishing encounters in R/S are kinda rough ngl

[@Kwikpanik]

Oh man, that shiny is so great! Congrats on the great find! Also, shiny Sharpedo is not purple or pink. It's obviously magenta.

[@bidoofildivino8493]

Congratulations

[@kennynakawaki]

Absolute beautiful shiny indeed! That vibrant green! Also, fishing hunts do suck in this game. Much better in FRLG.

[@SeaLam]

How do you get your colosseum footage so crisp? My recordings (using hdmi out) always come Out quite blurred even with correct aspect ratio and resolution Also shiny carvanha looks so good!!!

[@RandalfElVikingo]

This and Ralts were the only shinies I got in Gen 3, on the same File Save I got Pokérus haha.

[@baranorak4080]

You got a 4% ralts? Congrats on that dude

[@RandalfElVikingo]

@@baranorak4080 The bad thing is that I has a nature that boosted his Defense but lowered his Special Attack lol But it was 100% luck, that happened two years ago. I still have the save, thank you for your words :)

[@TheJamal723]

Rough Skin, Gentle Nature. Make up your friggin' mind fish!

[@tapuchris3329]

Congratulations! I'm shiny hunting Latias in Pokemon Liquid Crystal.

[@Cosmicdaydreamer]

Today I was looking for a metal coat for my Onix in pokémon soul silver, (I was using frisk stantler) but was taking reeeally long to find a magnemite with this item, but then, suddently, a *shiny* magnemite came and my reaction was just "oh just another magnemite without a WAIT WHAT?!" I managed to catch it and oh god mangemite has a prettier shiny then I remembered

[@baassD]

congrats!!

[@PriMaLSunrise]

Hey Sonikks how long would a run like this take? A couple thousand encounters, would that take weeks? Months? Just curious. I’ve always wanted to try hunting.

[@andreaperilli5771]

Wow shiny Carvanha

[@verdantstar2790]

Too bad you can't give it an eviolite and roll with it!

[@watyes7546]

I'm surprised it didn't faint after smeargle ignored orders

[@calculus3661]

Dear god fishing shiny encounter, what makes you wanna torture yourself like that.

[@Sonikks]

For good shinies...

[@bobbysanders8715]

Hey sonikks can I request something? With all of the shines you got, can you rearrange all of them on the PC to be like a rainbow?

[@timothycoleman5603]

🏆

[@rahcaz3689]

GameCube shinies feel like they can either be hit or miss, Carvahna is a hit for sure

[@jabo8191]

Aaand there it is 😁 congrats now issued on KZbin and Instagram! Truly a great shiny.

[@mr.satire9681]

0:17 what website do you use to see the encounter rates?

[@angelguz6244]

Are you able find shinies with battery dry?

[@NerdbanditRS]

Wow how did you stay so composed when Smeargle disobeyed orders, what if it false swiped and then carvanha used takedown D:

[@Sonikks]

False Swipe had no PP

[@ChicagoMel23]

I hate gen 3’s fishing mechanic..I lose a lot more of them Why are Colo/XD shinies so different sometimes?

[@frankharper3512]

I traded my Nintendo switch for two copies of authentic Pokémon emerald which also came with a gameboy advance SP AGS101 in near new condition.

[@CatsandDogs6347]

how does someone decide what to hunt for in a DTQ? im thinking about starting one in omega ruby and i only know for which starter i would go for but not the rest of the team. also what happens if you get something that isnt your target? phase for the target or just use what shines?

[@CatsandDogs6347]

@x If I were to shiny hunt for a team I used to when i was younger wouldnt that be a Nostalgia Team Quest like here? kzbin.info/www/bejne/paiQk4KDf52UaZI I thought a DTQ is something like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6GwYnubmcaIadk

[@SnorlaxInSpace]

never realised how nice this actually looks lol

[@i_should_shiny_hunt]

What happens the the counter runs out does it just stop or?

[@Sonikks]

What counter?

[@i_should_shiny_hunt]

@@Sonikks for how much time you have played

[@dramaticScar]

Wanna know a fool proof way to get a shiny Carvanha... search for a Feebas... works like a charm

[@KronaBlaq]

17771 is my black 2 ot awesome 😎

[@polishedrelish]

why do you always have cool id's for your dtqs

[@jrdavis4504]

When you keep mentioning how difficult this hunt is in R/S it brings me back to my PSTD when I killed one for attk EVs and stared at the “Carvanha fainted” text for ten minutes 🤦🏽

[@ibrahimghori6257]

If it makes you feel better I failed my what have would been my first shiny because I didn’t have pokeballs. (Didn’t know what shinies were but I was going to catch it because it looked different to me).

[@ItsSilver58]

It isn't pink nor purple, its orange, Kappa
