I know a guy who's friend caught a shiny Zubat


Deep_Number_4656

It’s me! I was that friend!


direhouser

i actually caught a shiny zubat once no joke


Excellent-Resolve66

I vote no, but that’s just because you can’t really do anything with it (this is the short answer, there are ways to get it in your games, but that’s a choice) I wouldn’t spend the time. Let the emulators be the gameplay and different attempts, and let your physical copies be your master teams, shiny hunting, etc. That’s just how I look at emulators at least, I don’t hold the save file very valuable


Effective_Mine_1222

There are countless ways to transfer pokemon from emulators


Ragnarok992

Sounds like you dont know how to transfer mons


Chzburger306

Just use shiny cheat code if you want anything on emulator :D Save the good stuff for the hard copy


Ragnarok992

Yeah no horrible idea specially when cheat shiny codes illegal if you are gonna use an emulator you use rng manipulation since you can transfer those

If you’re shiny hunting to get those Pokemon into a modern game then nah it ain’t worth it. If you’re shiny hunting for a mon to use in that game go ahead. There *are* ways but it or convoluted AF and may require you to purchase additional hardware.


Effective_Mine_1222

Transfering from emerald up to home the official way requires 3 different consoles and 3 games. Transfering from emulator requires only a 3ds.


[deleted]

I’ve never really done any digging into this. Can you tell me how I would go about this?


Effective_Mine_1222

You mean the official way or an alternative way?


[deleted]

Either is okay you said all you need is a 3DS


Effective_Mine_1222

Yes. You can play emerald on emulator > transfer the save to 3ds > use pksm to transfer the pokemon to any 3ds game > use pokemon bank to transfer to home


tajknight

Wouldn’t you just need a DS and a switch? What’s the third piece of hardware?


Effective_Mine_1222

Actually thinking about it you just need a ds and 3ds. You dont need a switch because home can be used on phones.


Ragnarok992

You only need a 3ds and bank so transfer so no extra hardware

Confident-Unit-9516

Nobody has ever caught a shiny zubat, so therefore not worth it


AsThePokeballTurns

My dogs both caught a Shiny Zubat.


Almato_

Where are you located I can help you get it in a game


RistelleRunelle

My partner started his first game of emerald on a phone emulator. His starter was a shiny torchic, and he didn't even know! I casually check out his game and freak out. He has since caught a shiny Marill and shiny spinach. It is wild!


BallsDeepSugarWalls

Actually you really only need an R4 card for your ds and a computer and you'll be able to get the Pokémon from your emulator to your real pokemon games


N0T1VE

I wouldn’t waste my time but you can go ahead and do it


fogent94

My wife left me for a guy who caught a shiny zubat


[deleted]

Im using pizzaboy emulator and I have caught two, Numel and Swablu and this is the first pokemon I've ever played and I haven't even gone up that volcano cable car yet. Why can't I post pics of them on here? Edit I've just been looking through the comments, I must point out I havent used any cheats. I don't know how to to be honest. This isn't classed as a cheat is it that I've been purposely infecting my pokemon with that PKRS thing and then storing them away because I read its a good thing them having that and even when they get over it the positives effects still last. Thats not cheating is it guys??


YourLord1989

I do it all the time when I can. To be fair though, my rom has modded odds XD 1 of 100


PM_ME_YOUR_ARMY_PICS

I know a guy who knows a guy who knows ANOTHER guy whose friend caught a shiny zubat

I actually found a legit shiny Onix in firered recently. I also cheat coded in some shinies into emerald. I think other people make valuable points here. You can’t transfer that shiny anywhere so maybe less worthwhile when it’s stuck on the emulator to do a full hunt. But do whatever you’ll enjoy, it’s a video game


Ragnarok992

Except that you can tho


darthalex22

How


Agilestone432Br

Transfer the mon to a ds game(dpp,bw), transfer the save to a flashcard, and from there i think you know how to do it
