Shiny Ninetales in Pokemon White 2 after 2,095 Rustling Grass encounters

One of the best shinies I've ever found. Simply put. Absolutely ectastic that I found this. The silver and blue combination are incredible.
After only 3 phases with two shiny Audino, I can't really ask for better than that. The actual phase luck for this quest has been very good. Two 20% targets after 3 phases each is quite good.
Enjoyed this hunt a lot but I'm happy it's done. I don't think there's much reason to hunt here in the future unless it's for the single or double grass targets.
Thanks for watching as always!

It’s always nice to get a “quick” (relatively) full odds shiny.

When I was 11 years old i got my first Pokemon game which was Black 2 and I was totally unaware of shiny Pokemon at the time. Long story short I do remember being in this place, looking for Pokemon in the shaking grass and I got a "white" Ninetales. I was so stunned by its appearance and I tried to catch it but i failed (I think i even killed it) and i went on looking for another one but all I got were regular Ninetales. Took me a few more years to realize what had happened at that moment. Congrats on your shiny! maybe ill try to reclaim mine after 10 years

[@MarcBene]

Go for another ninetales!!

[@darien356]

I can’t explain it, but your voice is so soothing to listen to.

[@michaelmalachite4404]

Gen 5 proves to be an eternally beautiful game w beautiful shiny sprites, love the bounce in ninetales' tails!

[@fizzibitz]

Gen V was the PEAK of Pokémon games. Not one game since has come to that standards

[@theluchakabuto5206]

@@fizzibitzI always felt this way to. Over the years more playthroughs of Ultra sun and moon have made me appreciate those games a ton more than I did on release because those games genuinely have some soul once you dig deep enough. Still not as good as 5th gen tho forsure

[@braxinIV]

@@fizzibitzon release, I was one of those people that hated Gen V. Didn’t like most of the Pokemon designs, and at the time, only allowing Unovan Mon felt like a bad decision. But having played it a month ago as a full grown adult, I regret that initial take. Still don’t like most of the designs, but Gen V as a whole is pretty good and got dealt a dirty hand.

[@kjhgfdfghjkdrtyuiwewe]

Glad to see someone else making cool shiny teams! I'm trying out a challenge where I need to hatch all my shinys for my team in bw (so they don't get extra XP and break the game) but it means I can give them hidden abilities, good IVs and egg moves!

[@NinetyFiveFathoms]

Dude, I'm so happy you got the Ninetales! That's SUCH a dream shiny to find, in the wild, with the Gen 5 sprite and all. Definitely worth having to slog through two more Audino, in my eyes. Big congrats. You've got such a cool team put together so far, very excited to see what the last member ends up being!

[@liizzybug]

congrats man! i love your videos so much, they help me a lot with patience on my full odds hunts. i was just in abundant shrine in my quest to complete the national dex! happy hunting!

Congrats man! Probably the coolest shiny from this quest so far! GL on completing this quest! :)

Wow!!! Big win finding the two elusive Audino! Sorry you couldn't find 4 more this hunt like that time with the Pidgeys. Good work in all seriousness with the Ninetails. Such a cool 2D sprite to find shiny! Can't wait to watch the final member of the team, Steve!

Absolutely worth it and well deserved after that troublemaking Audino gave you some headache. Such a stunning and marvelous shiny to be found in the wild. Best of luck on your final member of this quest!

Amazing!! My first shiny was a shiny boldore which was a complete accident. I was trying to complete the Pokédex and had to catch a boldore. I found a regular boldore and caught it but my friend thought it would be a funny idea to press the cartridge out of my game system so I had to go back and do it over again, and then I found the boldore again but it was shiny this time!

[@flowersofevil8064]

Hey Sonikks, first things first I love your videos, always watching them while hunting myself. I've got a question and hope it's okay to ask it. I'm currently hunting for a shiny Treecko in Sapphire and yesterday I read on the Internet that it's not quite possible to do any sort of SRs on a dry battery, which mine has. Now my question is, did you hunt for your Gen 3 starters on a game with a dry or charged battery? Thank you in advance...

[@flbreglass]

2k feels so long when youre in it, but then looking back, i’m always like “mm ez hunt” 😂

[@DreamiiAmi]

Question about the pass powers!! With the Pass powers that increase your shiny odds to 1/4096, do they stack with Masuda Method or Shiny Charm? Or just wild encounters? Congrats on Ninetales!!!

hey man ive been hunting shiny celebi for over 2 years now and im starting to lose hope. what do you do to encourage yourself to keep going?

[@frozenherolp9077]

18:25 The Pokemon in thr Hidden Grottos have their hidden abilty and you can cat a vulpix in the Abundant Shrine, but I think Grotto mons are shiny locked, meaning breeding would be necessary.

[@carsonpetry2454]

One time playing through soul silver I found a shiny Geodude and a shiny vulpix and I thing shiny ninetails looks pretty good

[@yommmrr]

Sprites look way cooler than 3d models imo. The shinys really pop.

Yeah. I miss them. I wish they stayed with sprites at least thru gen 6.
