Very pissed about the shiny locks but great video as always!

[@gonzalogarcia312]

So yeah there's no point in wasting time on the dlc in my eyes at this point.

[@seanwischer5916]

I just hope this is not a bid to force people to get them from pokemon Go. If so, I am afraid there may be a lot of cheating in the near future. I am still salty about a certain pokemon and Quest line being left out for the Lord knows how long. Also, weren't we supposed to have reruns of 7 star raids? Pokemon Company is starting down a very bad path.

[@SirPaladinThundercake]

You said everything right in this video. I'm going to let these legendaries stay roaming on the field uncaught, for ambience purposes when traveling 😂

[@artisticsmeargel4019]

Because aDrive it’s to make you understand don’t believe khu because looking at the games code the legendaries weren’t shiny locked until khu leaked that they could be hunted, so don’t blame pokemon blame yourself, take accountability because you guys ruined it for everyone I suggest from now on don’t make videos on khus leaks I’m not saying he’s entirely lying anf sound like verlisify but khu has only been leaking stuff that’s already common knowledge or has been being talked about when he leaked the confrontation of the unlocked shinies pokemon locked them and think of it this way so not make videos on leaks that heavily ruin the surprise like that

[@RaidAway]

GameFreak is so out of touch. Shiny hunters play the game more than the average person. It gives us a reason to keep playing. Shiny locking legendaries that are available on SO MANY other games is truly insane.

[@goofyganimatorONHIATUS]

If they keep doing this they might not receive money from me anymore, Pokémon is a very fun game and it makes it more fun to shiny hunt, 2 to 3 years ago, they said "If people keep shiny hunting the legendarys or the starters they become the normal form for them" and why is that a problem? We just wanna have something to do at the end of the game ;(

they just wantt you to buy the previous games so they can make more money.. I am thinking the sales aren't as high as other games but I am not 100% on that. I honestly wish I could refund this game lol cause I am not happy with it at all. I keep hoping they'd fix it or add the things a lot of people want but nope. they just keep doing weird stuff.

I hate how all legendary Pokemon in SV are shiny locked I think the issue is that GameFreak cares more about consistency than providing shiny hunt opportunities GameFreak: well it’s standing in the wild so it has to stay the same colour, or else how do we explain how a non shiny Pokemon becomes shiny? Consistency comes first at the expense of shinies

[@tijlvandenhoeck7471]

This, and that "You don't deserve" guy are absolutely scuffed nonsense. 0% chance that it's about consistency, no one that mentally retarded is in charge of these games, period. And as for not deserving them - who the fart-huffing *fuck* gets to decide that? No one. What a weird take. Where is this "You don't deserve them" narrative coming from? What evidence points to that being the reason? Because the guy saying it is doing so in a lot of comments, and he says it as if it makes any sense whatsoever. Expound on this garbage observation so I can get a good belly laugh. Make it good.

I was so hoping this indigo DLC would of saved this game but it completely flat lined when I herd the shinies weren’t huntable, what was the reason lack of time, money, laziness I just don’t know anymore. If this is what we’re gonna expect further on, I’m not so sure how I’m gonna feel if gen 10 releases because it could suffer the same fate as this one.

And then there was this one time in Area Zero I tried to leave the cave by climbing only to hit a sweet spot and go through the wall and roam about the outer layers of cave I was in I even screen shot it as proof, even the Pokémon you tried to shiny hunt were ridiculous because in certain areas there trapped in the walls and you never noticed until you use the lock in button.

[@JeererDaClown]

@Dragnel0GenerationX Thats not gameplay. That's performance that you're talking about. Very different things. The gameplay is what keeps Pokemon in business. The performance however is where this is complete trash.

You won't hear me arguing on that aspect however the gameplay is fine.

[@Moon-Vixen]

they locked the legendaries, but didn't lock the uncatchable ditto blocks OR the pokemon that spawn when syncro'ed (controlling one of your pokemon) AND you auto kill everything you get close enough to in this mode, INCLUDING SHINIES, and if you the trainer are too far away, when you go back to controlling yourself, the shiny will be despawned. also, on top of this, there's a mistake in the coding. the legendaries are supposed to have 3 best IVs but instead get 0. WHO was in charge of this. this is insane. what a fucking MESS

[@MetalZuko]

Your Pokemon in Auto Battle do NOT automatically take out shinies. I have seen with my own eyes that they won't target them. First there was shiny Bombirdier in Paldea, then my Walking Wake backed away when I tried sending it after some Milcery in the special outbreak. Right there, I spotted my first shiny Milcery, so Walking Wake didn't touch her. Oh, you mean Synchronizing? Well, in that case, what did you think was gonna happen? When you test the limits in a Pokemon game, it punishes you. They've been doing that since the ye old days of Gen 1.

[@Moon-Vixen]

@@MetalZuko .......are you ok?

[@MetalZuko]

@@Moon-Vixen No, I'm mad at you and everyone else for blaming game devs needlessly. This isn't an actual problem with the game so much as bugs, glitches, crashes, and such.

[@Moon-Vixen]

@@MetalZuko oh wow, this is new. never been on this side of it before. normally I'm called a bootlicker and sheep and even "literally insane", cause I am very much not what you think. like, if it tells you anything, my fave games in the entire series (which I have played every mainline game on release since yellow) is SWSH. but I still disagree. these are weird choices that were made by the devs, minus only the legendary IVs which is a mistake. but they willingly chose to shiny lock all the legendaries but not shiny lock the uncatchable ditto blocks. they were thoughtful enough to make sure autobattles don't kill shinies but ALSO made the choice of not having an overworld sound effect, and now chose to allow what is essentially autobattle to kill shinies if you so much as walk too close to them, and they will despawn if your character is too far away when you cancel out of it. these are intentional choices. although I will give you, shiny locking the legendaries could be something insisted on by the higher ups to sell them via pokemon go or something, but I doubt that. I expect it'll go as it usually does, and these legendaries will be given out shiny as download codes over the coming months or something. I'm personally not bothered much by the slow down, lag, frame drops, camera glitching through the map, and all the wild graphical mess that we saw at launch. I still think they're some of the funniest things to ever come from this fandom, but I and everyone else are allowed to be grumpy by things sometimes. that doesn't make us abusive haters who needlessly attack the devs over things they aren't in control of/are due to crunch. even the most passionate and understanding fans can have complaints sometimes. I totally feel you on the frustration with haters and how they tend to ruin the vibe and abusing the devs is Super Fucked, but that doesn't mean the devs can do no wrong or that any and all complaints are unfounded and from a place of entitlement and hate. I've put 1,435 hours into violet alone. if I wanna be grumpy about it and complain that they made shiny hunting harder/easier to fail and the character customization is shit, I will, cause I've certainly earned it.

[@MetalZuko]

@@Moon-Vixen And what good is complaining gonna do, huh? You think it's gonna make those poor game devs bow down to petty demands?

Raging Bolt, much like Raikou, is one of those pokemon where the regular colors and the shiny colors should've been switched. Can't explain why. Idk what it is but Raikou's shiny has always felt like it should be the regular one's color, and vice versa. Same with Raging Bolt here. Just feels more correct to me.

Shiny hunt kingdra 👀

[@Lightstation_]

I'm so glad I got shiny Ho-Oh in sword. But I always wanted a shiny suicune and latios.. This is just so backwards. This reduces playability. They are probably just going to release them in events...which is boring and not special at all

[@zackwoods719]

i dont even see them releasing as events you will be able to get them in pokemon go when they come out

[@Lightstation_]

@@zackwoods719 The first game where they prioritize making money from go instead of adding features into the mainline game. Pokemon go is now detrimental to the series

[@SkunkySpinda]

the ONLY thing I can Possibly see them doing is PERHAPS Shiny raids ? I'm not confident but its a possibility

[@zackwoods719]

won't happen most likely will only be able to get them shiny in pokemon go when they come out

[@vankristlabs]

This is a fantastic way to get me to sympathize with hackers who *will* inevitably find a way around it.

[@kevin-op7kd]

Smeregle looks good too as a shiny

[@gusgamer2424]

They really want people to go back to sword and shield to actually get shiny legendaries

[@Jazgodel]

I honestly enjoyed indigo disk a lot, had not felt such a nice pokemon experience since like gen 5 personally. It could have been perf if only legends were not shiny locked smh

[@Wojerino]

Guess it's back to sword and shield for dynamax adventures. Brilliant job Game Freak!

[@karensusee5010]

Shiny hunting these old legends is what brought so much attention to there platform when ppl tune in to watch people like you shiny hunt then it draws those viewers into wanting to do it and buy there so dumb

[@MetalZuko]

Who's dumber? The devs? Or the gamers/players that revolve their silly little lives around shiny hunting Pokemon?

[@MrRDP21]

Sweet 🤘

[@randomguy8107]

Reuniclus has a really cool shiny imo

[@Onlera]

The ONLY theory I have (for the new shinies like the paradox ones), is that they’re trying to avoid a briefcase simulator situation. Because you encounter them as part of the story, they don’t want people to stop dead partway through the story and spend potentially months refusing to progress until they get a shiny. As for the old ones, my only theory there is the same as my theory on why the PC boxes haven’t expanded (I know MINE are pretty crammed). It’s to encourage you to have to use Pokémon home. They want you to get those shiny legendaries in Max Raid Den adventures and bring them forward in Home, rather than being able to acquire them in one game now. But those are just theories

[@gavinrhodes7645]

I would agree with your theory.

[@legobeylov7470]

You literally do not encounter them as a story. Also, even if you did. The cut scenes can literally show shinyness if you hack it to be shiny so even that's a lame excuse And if people wanna hunt for a Pokémon, let them hunt. Worst part is some pokemon are still locked to this day (looking at you victini)

[@overrunctrl6713]

They dont care what the players think, as long as the 30 bucks is spent on the dlc they dont care

[@gavinrhodes7645]

@@overrunctrl6713 Thats the truth

[@Cainb23]

Yup. I am a full odds shiny hunter and have bought every Pokémon game since I was 5 in 2000 and I was so excited for this dlc as it’s potentially my last Pokémon release as I’ll be 30 in a couple years and the locked everything… I found out when I first started and I put the controller down right there and stopped playing. Im done with the series this is absurd.

[@zackwoods719]

age shouldn't matter if you like pokemon

[@MetalZuko]

Bye Felicia.

[@PeterSnores]

Quite dumb considering there's obviously rushed work done with these games and they can simply cover their tracks at the very least giving people the chance to have these shiny legendaries to be used later down the road. It's not even confirmed if in the future these pokemon will be playable anyways so they could've also as easily made it to where you couldn't use these pokemon in the next game lol

[@TheDeathtoyu]

I think shiny locks are great because it helps retain the value of your previous shinies. I hope they never release a shiny deoxys or darkrai again because I like havin those rare rare exclusives.

[@TaylorWiler]

Well some people are new to pokemon and want that rare rare shiny.. so wouldn’t even be a thing.

[@netherwarrior6113]

You can get darkrai shiny in DP and Deoxys shiny in Emerald. While both require some level of glitch, whether walking in the void or fainting a Pokémon with a berry, you can shiny hunt them in those games

[@brxtndog]

I was so looking forward to shiny hunting spectrier but alas

[@jortega3124]

They really had to shiny lock the new paradox mons...what gives? Sucks cuz Dewpider is the only shiny on that list I don't have. Honestly once I catch that, imma hop back on to CoD. I'll get back to pokemon when the next gen comes out.

[@Return2Cindr]

I was really looking forward to shiny hunting Zekrom as doing so in sword and shield is just such a pain, so I'm really disappointed with this, guess I gotta go back to grinding max raid dens

[@MetalZuko]

You deserve the disappointment.

[@leoponce6252]

Dude, just get them in ultra sun and moon or oras. It's much easier than doing it in the new games.

[@MetalZuko]

Too bad, so sad. Don't trust unconfirmed sources again.

[@4kgamingmurphyslaw586]

But how do you evolve qwillfish in this game

[@MetalZuko]

Hisuian Qwilfish? Level it up after it learns Barb Barrage. My brother said it evolves upon learning the move as well.

[@dontbother7355]

Two guesses. 1. They want to punish us for the data mines and info being leaked. 2. They want to encourage people to buy SW/SH. Looks like the Crown Tundra is the best place to farm Shiny legends. Make a new account and farm D-Max adventures.

[@overrunctrl6713]

Definitely for the money, nintendo is all for money.

[@MetalZuko]

I'd say the first reason is the real deal. That and they want to punish any gamers not within their intended demographic.

[@tgyo99]

Are you going to call out that the riddler was completely wrong about 90% of the stuff that he said?

[@MetalZuko]

Just as I predicted, Khu gets off scot-free while the devs take the heat, so... nope. I guess they won't.

The shiny locks are the worst part. Ive poured hundreds of hours into the games just looking for the shinies and I had been excited to hunt for kubfu, meloetta, and the false legends.

[@MetalZuko]

You actually believed you could get shiny Legendary/Mythical Pokemon?! You're just being a jerk on purpose here.

[@4kgamingmurphyslaw586]

When will the peach pokemon even be available to catch

[@morgank.2788]

It will most likely be an event where you have to get a code from GameStop or something in a couple of months

[@buzzkilla5640]

They didn’t shiny lock them in ORAS, they didn’t shiny lock them in USUM, they didn’t shiny lock them in SwSh. So… WHY NOW?! OF ALL TIMES?! WHERE SHINY HUNTING THESE POKÉMON ARE MORE SATISFYING TO GET THEN BEFORE?! *sigh*… GameFreak… You got some explaining to do!! Edit: also congrats on 1M Subscribers, ADrive! You inspired me to love bug types since Sun and Moon. Now, I’m currently hunting all of my bug-out bag children now that game is “fully” done. Keep doing you, and thank you, man.

[@typemasters2871]

GameFreak, caring more for consistency over giving us opportunities to get cool shinies

[@viviorko3345]

I got most of them so no worries here. Hard pass on your drinks that cause health problems.

[@zackwoods719]

the drinks arent as bad as soda though

[@bannedaccount586]

They shiny locked them likely because theres nothing pokemon related coming out until the end of 2024 most likely so they need some reason to get people to do raids for another entire year on a game that most people are already bored with. My reasoning for this is theres 25 legendaries and 12 months in a year with the exception of a few pokemon remaining on the end that's 1 legendary pokemon raid every 2 weeks like they did with the mightiest mark pokemon

[@user-fh3wp5mf4t]

Toucanon is a cool shiny
