"Stonjourner is rare" Me who easily finds them in Giant's Bed: well yes but actually no

[@caffiend81]

It's so easy to find Drakloak during Thunderstorms in Lake of Outrage. Going around in a loop to hit each grass patch and spawning all the spawns it has to offer, you can find a Drakloak in just a couple minutes, sometimes multiple spawn at once. And then yeah, like you said, just breed a Dreepy (which is what I am going to do to try to get better IVs now that I have my Munna with the desired nature). But because finding Drakloaks really isn't that bad during the correct weather I am not sure Dreepy qualifies for the top spot since breeding just to fill the pokedex is easy, unless you're only ranking based on spawn rates/conditions.

[@iconic1802]

eiscue is a sweeper, once his form changes his speed goes to 130 and after a belly drum on the first turn, its ice cube will go away after taking a physicial hit and take no damage (form doesnt change and takes damage if spk), it is almost impossible to stop with his 4 times boosted 80 atk

[@errorgaming1181]

Even better, if it Dynamaxes, its Ice Face will *RESTORE.*

[@sinteleon]

Though for an ice sweeper, Darmanitan is probably better anyway. Better sweeper stats both before and after form change, doesn't require a physical hit for said form change, has better physical move pool (along with fire typing change to better use fire physical moves as well), also has belly drum. (yes eiscue has better access to special moves, but if you're using belly drum, you aren't using special moves anyway)

[@SquiffleQwimply]

The 1/16 square shiny is for eggs The star shines are VERY VERY VERY rare on wild Pokémon Edit: I’ve read the replies and THE SQUARE SHINIES IN THE WILD ARE NOT THE RARE KIND!

Square shiny brilliant authentic sinistea Can you believe that’s exist somewhere?

[@jebacpis869]

Can you believe someone caught that

[@nolangerrans6083]

Well in the wild it would be star shiny that's rarer, due to the glitched rate

[@gemodemplay415]

Aaa, so that was the shiny Ribombee I caught. It had squares around it. Ty for the info!

[@Tater_Toot]

It's funny to find this video now that I started the game, cuz surprised trades are literally filled with dreepys, probably from ppl letting them go while breeding for shiny

[@thegamerkidstv]

Why does this huy always sound like he is about to sneeze No offence

[@CG_GamingChannel]

I was too nervous to ask that same question...

[@Zonefire15]

I thought he was gonna sneeze or was getting over a cold or something

[@onpete.9285]

Offence.. Ah yes I see you like fences too

[@Rendoku25]

Gamer Kids TV he sounds like he is drunk with a cold lmao

[@raymondhuff3885]

Oh and I literally ran into a sizzlipede without even knowing it

[@willowhibias]

Cinistea in this video: *rare* Cinistea in my pokemon shield : *E V E R Y S I NG L E S P A W N*

[@mr.renemoreno2647]

Coil to see now! Great video now! Keep up the good work now! Be well now!

[@alaynac1610]

Bruh I encountered no. 4 but i didnt know it was rare

[@KR11111]

Dude it sounded like you were saying turdinator the whole time.

[@yoongiboongicatman2893]

Im getting pokemon sword today super excited

[@DJTileTurnip]

Eiscuepult? Never heard of that one

[@jordangreene8125]

DJ Tile Turnip me either I was confused

[@Crobert24]

I heard about em but, honestly it looks weird

[@gvolpe15]

Feebas is a 1% chance to fish in route 2, let alone Milotic

[@giveluminacat10nobles21]

Milotic can spawn in the water near lake of outrage, fairly often

[@wyxxoz3955]

GPLink 1223 just during fog i think

[@Killrbladez]

@@giveluminacat10nobles21 It's a "rare encounter" in fog, Gyarados in all weather in that spot. So it's not "fairly often". Gyarados could also be there instead of Milotic with the correct weather.

[@yourlocalnewfie4304]

I once found a milotic in clear weather at the lake of outrage, luck i guess

[@arkcantoscreampsnpc7274]

Bladez Overlord you can just kill whatever’s there till Milo spawns in fog or clear, fog being I much higher spawn rate

[@XORcircuit]

"Dreepy is rare" Me staring at my box of Dreepy: Mhm *sure...*

[@staticlegend354]

I was looking up Dreepy, and found it was a 2% chance to find. This was after the game, and I started to work on completing the Pokédex. I found that thing the first random encounter.

[@1JBTheGiant]

I literally just caught the berry tree Snorlax in a raid like an hour ago, I’m excited! It looks so badass!

[@tonytang7550]

Stojouner and Eiscue's versions matches the gyms of their types in the two games.

[@oddf182]

I never knee sizzlipede was rare, it was my first encounter on route 3 😂

[@crazycolt1238]

My first encounter was a shiny sizzipede in the fire gym

[@ardismurayama4430]

As soon as I went to route 10, found a duraludon, spammed ultra balls, Then I caught it so now its in the box :D

[@cjkavy2299]

Duraludon was one of the first mons I encountered on the snowy route lol

[@joelteageist5781]

Cjkavy yeah I found 3 within a few minutes

[@Ravenwolf21]

I got mine in a raid when I first entered lol

[@TheInfiniteDraw]

I've had like 5 people send me level 1 Dreepy's via Surprise Trade.

[@sinteleon]

All of them presumably breeded, because I don't believe you can even catch a level 1 mon.

[@TheInfiniteDraw]

@@sinteleon Yup, I'm assuming they're the failed children of the shiny hunt.

[@renzo4635]

drakloaks can be easily caught by setting your switch’s date to nov 26 and go to lake of outrage to catch one

[@someguy86]

@@TheInfiniteDraw yup i shiny hunt for dreepy then trade the non shinies. Like 20% of all the pokemon i get in return are level 1 dreepys.

[@MiguelJoseMG]

Looking at this list, I might be lucky because I was able to complete my dex in 70hrs without having any issues with any pokemon on that list except for game exclusives tho.

[@inbredduck1487]

On the route to the left of motostoke, sizzlipede has a 1% encounter rate. However, vulpix is also on that route (as an overworld spawn) and has the ability flame body, which significantly increases the chance of finding wild fore type pokemon. Stick that vulpix at the front of your team and youll get a sizzlipede in under 5 minutes. I spent over an hour hunting for a sizzlipede before i knew that, only took a single encounter with the vulpix.

[@kob6912]

Larvitar- 2% random encounter, harsh sun only, lake of outrage. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@codysmustang]

I found out the depressing way about the sinistea not giving "authentic" mons when bred. I was hoping it was gonna be easier to get that shiny

[@typeterson8376]

the sizzlikid is a pokemon I got on my first time going in the grass in the fire gym and caught it just cuz i needed fire. I had no clue it was so rare but it's still on my team so glad i did haha

[@typeterson8376]

and it has flame body so lucky me

[@nicholasbogaert-lee1951]

Easy way to get sizzlepiede- First find the evolved form. Then go to the nursery Put the evolved form into the nursery with a ditto or something like that Bam! A baby sizzlepiede!

[@linnikn715]

Exactly

[@unicat1292]

I found a Dreepy, lvl 50 at the Lake of Outrage, then I evolved it, with some candies, then a bit after I found it's evolution.

[@lofiren8245]

Sad fact about myself I've beat every pokemon game but I have never caught a shiny or even encountered one. If only I could get this much upvotes on reddit holy crap.

[@luigi55125]

Up until black and white, I didn't even know they existed. Been playing since red, owned crystal when they were added.

[@lofiren8245]

@@luigi55125 yes that's so true I bet I encountered some I just didnt catch them and killed them cause I didnt know until about either black 2 and white 2 or omega ruby

[@orca5836]

I only ever caught a shiny unknown

[@caitlynnhatch9254]

My first one was in black and white. It was a slowpoke.

[@ynyangmrdn8477]

Its easier to do this with ORAS haha

[@nathanbenavidez7329]

I started off sword and shield, and got to the area where you get your wishing star and I found a chewtile with a golden aura

[@coconutm1lk297]

oh wow what a turn of events I have turtanator

Let me leave a comment about how I accidentally killed a shiny

[@kylie7780]

Sits down with some popcorn Story time!

[@krambrown6860]

Meh. I got a shiny squevet from shaking trees. Then my friend stole it while i was pass out drunk.
