Using Only Shiny Pokemon | Heart Gold

The chance of encountering a shiny Pokemon in Gen 4 is 1 in 8192 making it a long and tedious process to find one. But what if you try to build a team of 6 shinies, hunting full odds, just to play through the game. This was heavily inspired by SmallAnt, he is pretty poggers

Finally! Another to join the challenge and not artificially boost the odds!

[@manoofye8340]

lol

[@wispyspectre5128]

speed up helps but it still took over 40 hours so still impressive imo. wish more people would go through kanto though

[@timpike8559]

@@wispyspectre5128 yeah the speed up is insane

[@westhamaremassive8099]

Hardly he uses speed up

[@christopherbronson3275]

23k resets. Good Lord, your dedication is absolutely amazing

[@Irrwyn]

23k resets for 5 (forget Gyarados) shinies that all have 1/8192 is pretty lucky :D

[@ThomasSeeds]

23k lol, I hit 27k for just a girafarig

[@scoutman195]

@@Irrwyn the shiny starter was technically 3/8192 since u get to see 3 at a time per reset, but still quite lucky

[@Irrwyn]

@@scoutman195 Not exactly this according to maths but definitely very close

[@ahappypanduhh]

Wow out of all the shiny videos on KZbin. You an smallant are the only ones that didn't cheat an lower odds. FF(fast forward) is fine as you have to make the video an not wait months an months. Cheers.

[@square_ace2160]

hey person been following for a while, just wanted to swoop in and say that your pokemon content is amazing and that I admire how keep putting effort in it regardless of how many people watch it. luv u 🥰

[@Solemon]

Hey, thanks!

[@exzot1cc]

kinda sus ngl

[@xdmamakkopitiam8930]

After watching smallant and solem, it's 100% confirmed. *Gyarados is rigged guys, they both shiny first try*

[@Solemon]

or we are just insanely lucky :D

Small ant who did this already and has beaten red:MY GOALS ARE BEYOND YOUR UNDERSTANDINGS

[@Tommysuper999kebab]

Cool, Man! I did the same challenge and Ho-oh alone took 16000+ reset, but it was an incredible satisfaction when I did get him, congrats for the completion of the challenge :D

[@Leroy01]

Not only did he get the shiny starter super fast, it also had PokeRus. That, my dear friends, is the definition of pure luck :D

[@scrublord9505]

Starters can’t get pokerus initially, he must have gotten it from a wild battle. And 2k resets for hgss starter is pretty close to odds since you’re seeing 3 at a time.

[@ThomasSeeds]

Bots above me^^^ don’t listen to them

[@comical98]

He Also sped it up too, so definitely illegitimate but understandably

Gloom is so stupid that I really love it hahaha nice vid!

[@Solemon]

Yeah getting oddish was really unexpected and that gloom animation was stupid.. but funny :D

[@Tommy-gu6yb]

a lot of these challenges coming out but not a lot of people doing full odds and live reactions, great video!

[@ItsDKoda]

Oh my god it's Person! I'm so glad you're making Pokemon videos, Person. Thank you!

[@Solemon]

Hope you enjoy!

[@hawktalon7890]

Oh I soft-resetted for shiny Ho-Oh too! It took a week, thankfully I had that week free from most obligations. It looks great in Generation 4. :)

[@user-nm3dh5io2b]

Hey atleast you helped the younger self of getting a Shiny Ho-oh

[@adammoore3618]

Can you do more like this, i hate seeing the videos that say 'just shinies' and then they used reduced odds, like its just not as impressive as this

[@mysingingmonstersfan1023]

yeah, atleast this guy and smallant did regular odds

[@Joyful_End]

I feel like increasing the speed also diminishes the achievment

[@MrThomas20121]

don't mind me, i'm just enjoying solem newest channel. btw i'd like to see you play a pokemon game(doesn't matter which one you play but i'd like to see emerald cause it's my fav) where you start with a randomized pokemon as starter. basically the idea is that you get a random pokemons with 3 evolutions inside the 3 starting balls.

[@Solemon]

[@hqizyyy]

I soft reset for a shiny starter earlier this year and got my Cyndaquil in maybe 300 resets 🖤 I wanted Totodile but I do like Cynda quite a bit!

[@Ijustwastedyourtime0]

I got a shiny chikorita after about 400-500 resets

[@kylelawrence6678]

Damn that's a lot of work I'll sub and like for that dedication

[@Garebanaan]

Man.... Its been a rough year for me. Thanks for the good vid!

[@timpike8559]

Damn you have the speed on like 1 million and it still took you that long for the shinys damn

I am just minding my own business grinding one day and i accidentally encountered a shiny graveler.

I just Caught a shiny hoothoot today when I was looking for exeggcute by using headbutt on trees in heartgold

Turns out the quests Shiny Hunters have been doing for ages are more marketable when you call it a challenge.

u cheated by not getting a shiny ratata

Bro didn't get a shiny ratatta, run over

But you used a non shiny Ratana in batata to hunt to Electrode. Not a full shiny run then, but liked the video

Thanks!

Been doing this on a copy of soulsilver no emulation,no speeding up for about a year and some still haven’t got lugia. This was a mistake but I just can’t stop…

[@aleksanderagren6360]

Congrats

[@rozze1186]

it was smallant idea, but there aren't any more challanges

[@Solemon]

yeah I thought about that when starting, the thumbnail has to be similar as you want to include the shiny ho-oh but the overall playthrough using shinies is just a dtq dream team quest, not his idea, people have been doing exactly that for over a decade

[@FortunAdlaich]

Fun video and amazing dedication but I wish u went more in depth with the boss battles

Great vid!

The most insane thing about this (for me) is that this is on an emu right? I cant even grind shinies on my switch anymore since i found out you can buy em for 1€

Will there be video about your pokemon card collection . cmon lets do it ! greetings from Croatia!

So.. right now I'm doing Heartgold for shinies. First time shiny hunting with full odds I got Shiny Totodile at 151 SR's! But I'm struggling to get the 2nd shiny. I'm at 918 encounters rn I get bored very easily and I been going at for 3 days. Should I keep going, any advice?

[@KIibbi]

Maybe you can play the game as usual and occasionally shiny hunt? Also put in other goals such as obtaining pokemons with good IVs!

I'm doing this challenge right know, I have feraligator, the red gyarados an electrode, and a failed zubat and nidorino in safari zone :')... Wish me luck i guess
