Top 10 Things That Probably Didn’t Happen to You in Pokemon!

[@ethandobbs]

Hey guys! So I know this update is over a year later xD, but after doing a lot more research, I found out that the Pokemon Stadium 2 Challenge Cup Shiny isn’t 1/491,520 chance; it actually has a normal chance of 1/8192. The reason why it has the normal chances of a shiny is because back in Generation 2, shiny Pokemon were determined by their individual values. If their Defense, Speed, and Special IV’s equaled 10 and also their Attack IV equaled 2, 3, 6 ,7 ,10, 11, 14, or 15, they’ll be shiny. The math being: (1/16 * 1/16 * 1/16 * 8/16, since their IV’s can range from 0 - 15). And since in Challenge Cup the Pokemon are randomly generated along with their individual values, they will have the same odds as a Shiny. The math I was doing in this video was (1/60 * 1/8192) because I was taking into account the odds of getting the 1 of 60 Pokemon that are generated. Really sorry for this mess up haha, but the Pokemon Colosseum Shadow Shiny odds are accurate because the Pokemon goes under two shiny checks which is basically (1/8192)^2. Nonetheless, I hope you guys enjoy the video! :D

[@psyclops973]

When I was a kid I accidentally triggered the ZZAZZ glitch on my Pokemon Yellow. Basically all my PC Boxes got completely full of glitched Pokemon named ZaZaZaZaZ or AzAzAzAz, all with random sprites, random levels and random abilities. If I tried to release one of those Pokemon or withdrew it to my party, the game would crash. Basically it ruined my save file and I had to start over. It was at a time where websites like Bulbapedia didn't exist and these Gen 1 glitches weren't properly documented anywhere because the internet was still in its infancy. To this day I still don't know how the fuck I triggered it because the steps to recreate the glitch aren't that simple and involve a lot of number manipulation.

[@FarNoGaming]

You can infect everyone in your party with Pokerus after you get just one carrier. It’s super useful.

[@theonlystutz2136]

also store one of the pokemon in the pc.. your pokemon only keep the pokerus status for a set amount of time, even though they will keep the benefits of the "virus" they won't be able to infect any more. If you store one in the pc you can use it to infect all the pokemon you want. (not sure why it doesn't reset in the pc..)

[@thizlam4810]

TheOnlyStutz Probably the timer is based on steps taken while holding the Pokémon in your inventory, so if you never hold it the step timer never gets lower.

[@theonlystutz2136]

technically speaking that should still make it possible for you to "keep pokerus alive" as long as you want to use it

[@Shinigami_1320]

If memories serve, I believe that mirage island would appear by speaking to a guy that has binoculars and says if it’s there or not. Also you must have castform to make it pop up

[@suryawanshivaishali]

Really? I didn't know the castform part. Gotta try it. Thanks!

[@kaitlinarnold5105]

Vaishali Suryawanshi Mirage island pops up when the last four digits of the personality value of a Pokémon in your party matches a random 4 digit number generated that day (always 0000 if the game was started with a dead internal battery) and stays as long as you keep the matching Pokémon in your party or until a new number is generated. It’s extremely rare and doesn’t have anything to do with Castform, that was probably just the Pokémon who’s values happened to match the day mirage island popped up for him. The part about the man is true though, he’s in Pacifilog town, and you can check all the Pokémon in your pc to see if they match that day by switching them into your party then talking to the man.

I used to check with the old man every day as part of my daily grind routine, I eventually gave up until one day I checked and he said that it was there.

Pokerus happened to me recently in Platinium. I was going through my Challenge of finishing the game using only statuts attacks. Which is hard. And when healing them, Nurse Joy told me they had it. My mind was blown. It probably makes the challenge easier and I'm not complaining about it. Also you didn't talk about missing with the Master Ball. Quite a long time ago, I discovered that Master Ball doesn't have 100% chance of catching but 99,9% or something like that. It never happened to me though and I think it has been discovered because people have found the info in the source code, not by the worst bad luck ever that missing with the Master Ball would be.

Most glitches aren't discovered by mistake. They're discovered when people decrypt the game's coding and find the ways it can by manipulated.

[@bleujae79]

I guess you just have shit luck. I've had a few shinies over the years just from random encounters. My first one being from leaf green. It's very likely that you have come across a shiny but it was one of the ones that didn't have a very noticable color swap. I didn't even know what a shiny was until I caught a golden Pidgey and looked up what the hell was going on (I completely missed the animation of the shiny sparkle). While you might not want to acknowledge that a shiny skipped right passed you, it's an extremely great likely hood that you have run from or even killed a shiny before. Also, did you never catch the red gyrados from lake rage in gold or silver or the remakes? Or get the shiny haxorus from completing the Pokedex in black 2 or white 2? I mean they might be guaranteed shinies but they're still shinies lol

[@wadeconroy3467]

I have a deoxys like that but it's a shiny

[@SomeBlokeOrWhatever]

​@@otakuwithinsomnia6465 Highly likely that those are hacked pokémon, if you got them by WiFi on a modern DS console. It is actually very easy to hack and generate/modify pokés for the modern games. And since those stats can all *technically* happen in the game, not even a machine can pick them out as "fake". They are legitimate pokémon as far as the game is concerned. In fact the only things that set the game off in terms of "This pokémon is hacked" are like, IV/EV numbers that can't naturally happen (just a calculation, not that I know how to do it). Having Having moves that the pokémon cannot learn (easily checked in Bulbapedia). Or having the ~wrong~ encounter area (this one is a doozy. It checks where you "met" the pokémon, the ID number, the level where you "caught" it, and if it's a legendary, and if everything doesn't click just right, it doesn't work)

[@chicagocubs7238]

I'll never forget my first shiny. I was playing crystal and I was grinding in victory road, and a greenish Onix appeared, luckily I knew what it was, so I caught it successfully. Well about 15 minutes later I found another shiny onix. Yep, two full odds shiny onixs within 20 minutes of each other. I'll never forget the look on my brothers face.

[@chicagocubs7238]

Update: HOLY FRICKING CRAP! I was ev training my milotic in emerald in the desert underpass, and I found a shiny whismur, and since it had roar I didn't attempt to weaken it, and I ultra balled it and caught it first try. I am sky high right now.

My first shiny I obtain myself was when I was breeding azmurill. Got a shiny perfect 5IV one. Was so happy coz azmurill shiny color was sick.

@8:08 You mention that shiny calculation is different in gen 1 then in gen 2 and onwards. That's not quite correct as gen 1 and 2 uses the same shiny system. They both use the pokemon stats to figure if it's shiny. Its gen 3 and onward that changed the system.

[@psychoneko5975]

Once you have Pokerus, it stay some days one your Pokemon then disapearm except if the Pokemon is put in the pc, the pokerus is then "frozen" as long as the Pokemon stays in the pc. And yeah, the Pokerus is contagious. Makes some fights with an infected Pokemon in you party, and the whole'll party'll end up with Pokerus. That's how some peoples send infected low level pokemons in wonder trade.

Something that happened to me back on GBC Pokemon Gold, I was in Dragon's Den grinding through Dratinis, when my brother decided to take over for me. He killed a Dratini with my Snorlax and the level counter kept increasing until the Snorlax reached lvl 100.

Actually, PokeRus spreads to other pokemon in your party if you have one pokemon infected. If you got one pokemon with PokeRus and then the PokeRus went away, then that would be crazy RNG, but more than likely you just got PokeRus once and spreaded it around since it's very contagious.

How to REALLY get mew: after battling the trainers on the bridge, go left with an abra, go down, but pause as you go down, and the trainer will spawn right as you pause, and teleport to the pokemon center, go back up the bridge, go to the right, battle the slowpoke trainer, but at a distance, so he walks up to you, then defeat him, go back, and the pause menu will pop up. Close it, and mew will appear.
