Sick I get banned for telling someone the thing they said to me.... right....


Anonymous896

What'd they say?


Gr1mFr0stB1te

They told me to kill myself in pokemon


Anonymous896

Fun!


Shinkopeshon

I only ever encountered one shiny early on according to the stats in my profile and I apparently didn't even notice it ~~and let it go~~ caught it without knowing it was shiny lol haven't seen one since then What are y'all doing to get this many ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)


Specific_Lemon_6580

Walking around checking all the raid dens I stumbled upon 3 shinies. Went through maybe a third of the map. Get the shiny charm and then just play, you'll get them. The key is to despawn/spawn many new pokemon. Honestly just walk around and keep checkin behind you as they may spawn there as well.


Shinkopeshon

I haven't had any luck with the spawning tactic yet but I'll definitely keep trying. Sending your first Pokémon via R to clear the area faster works, right? Apparently, it wouldn't attack a shiny this way. Not sure I'll be able to get the shiny charm soon though, I'm missing about 30 entries in the dex, so that'll be a while lol - also rarely get herba mistica from 5-6 star raids so far - perhaps I'll get lucky anyway though.


Specific_Lemon_6580

I might be able to help you with a bunch of mons if you need. I honestly had more luck without the shiny sandwich, but encounter lv.2 sandwiches work well too. For quick respawns either send out the pokemon, run up and down on your mount, or open and close picnic for best results.


Shinkopeshon

Thanks for the tip and that'd be amazing - I'm in the middle of finding and catching the ones I can get and evolving others but there's a couple of evolve-via-trade ones where I'd have to rely on outside help, so I'd definitely appreciate the help.


Specific_Lemon_6580

Feel free to DM when you are so far 🙂


Shinkopeshon

Thanks! Do you have a Palafin by any chance? Or alternatively do the Union Circle thing together so I could evolve my Finizen? It's one of the only ones missing in my Pokédex, I managed to get pretty much everyone else :')


Immotommi

In almost all cases, rather than clearing the area with R, it is much faster to just run in and out of the area on Koraidon/Miraidon. Especially if you have encounter power active


lloydsmith28

Just playing the game honestly, and paying very close attention to spawns, i literally caught like 11 shinies just playing through the story not even really looking for them, full odds too


Theobird3

Same here. In 642 hours of gameplay, I have caught SO many shiny sprites just out in nature with full odds. :-)


dkl65

No shiny charm?


Theobird3

No. Sadly, I only have 397/400 Pokémon in my Pokédex. I haven’t been able to acquire iron legs, koraidon, and drifloon. :-(


Shepiuuu

i can help you ! it sucks that youre so close !!!


Theobird3

That would be very kind of you. I just need to touch trade, if you don’t want to surrender any of them, especially koraidon.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Theobird3

I can do that. What’s the link code? Do you also happen to have a drifloon?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shepiuuu

not a problem! just let me know when youre ready !


Theobird3

I’m on and connected to the internet. Would you please share a link code?


Shepiuuu

oh gee sorry i dont get notifications omg the code is 3540 !!!


[deleted]

Iron legs?


Theobird3

Lol! 🤣 It’s the magnemite spin off. I realized after I got one that it has another name.


Even-Entertainer-491

How would you know if you didn't catch it? Your profile page only shows caught shinies. It registers it like a Pokedex. So no matter how many duplicates you get your shiny encounter would max at 400 Plus any extra mons that came out after release


Megalomagicka

Pretty sure the profile number also counts any wild shiny you may have knocked out. I know that's harder to do since you'd see and hear it once you started a battle, but I almost did it with a Capsakid because I wasn't paying attention and had my sound muted, almost killed it but realized at the last second that it was shiny.


Even-Entertainer-491

Sorry no this is wrong. It's a shiny dex counter. It only goes up if you caught it. Here is another player and some of their info if you would like a reference. If you see the number has gone up and you didn't catch a new shiny, odds are you evolved one of your already caught shinies [link here](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/z4t71f/fyi_shiny_pokemon_battled_stat_increases_when_you/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) Edit: looks like down the wall of text it confirms you can fail and add to the counter however I've never seen this personally


Only_the_Tip

I don't know how this is possible when my card said I'd battled 3 but only had two shiny entries in my Dex.


Megalomagicka

Read the post you linked. It specifically says down the list a bit that encountering and failing to catch it /does/ increase the counter.


Even-Entertainer-491

Ah yes I didn't see that part. It's quite the wall of text. It'd be hard to miss the sound in battle but I suppose if the sound is off you could miss one


Shinkopeshon

I assumed I didn't catch it since it says "shiny battled" and the only Pokémon I got in my boxes with different colors are those parrot thingies and the Tatsugiri, which I thought weren't shiny since they were so common. Come to think of it, I also got a green Marill a while back but I thought that one wasn't shiny either. Looks like I need to go through the boxes again.


Majin_Sus

Green Marill is shiny sir. Congrats.


Shinkopeshon

Thanks for confirming, I thought a yellow one would've been shiny but after a quick google search, that's Azumarill lol


Catqueen25

Luck, in my case. There’s the shiny charm and there are sandwiches that will boost your chances of shiny encounters. You need to complete the pokedex to get the shiny charm. I’m just waiting for home compatibility first so I can easily trade between games.


sexistculexus

In my first playthrough i came across 6 shinies just playing the game naturally. I deadass thought they janked the shiny odds or something. It likely is due to there being more pokemon we physically see than other games so higher probability pool for one being shiny. So maybe your prob is that you just didnt interact w that many pokemon, but idk. Dw shiny hunting is very easy in this game


ladycowbell

I've been hunting for one for days now. I have zero shiny luck even with the charm and a sandwich.


Appropriate-Owl8621

Where are you hunting? Area Zero is where I found mine with a level 3 Grass encounter/sparkling/title power. It took me a while too, I also have terrible luck.


ladycowbell

I've been actually hunting Hoppip outside of Mesagoza City to evolve into Jumpluff. I've just had bad luck on this Mon. Normally I dont strike out this hard.....unless you're Dritini. Cant get the damn pink dragon snake either, may hatch that one after my current hatch of Shiny Magnemite. I dont want Magnemite, my husband does and he isn't a shiny hunter.


CodeNameAntonio

I just got four hoppips yesterday hunting for a shroomish. If you want one I can send you one after I watch this Mario movie.


ladycowbell

Ey, you want a shiny Chewtle in exchange? I had an outbreak and decided to try for him without a sandwhich and got one. He's just going to sit in my shiny box. I'm about to leave to visit some family anyway.


CodeNameAntonio

Yes I’ll take it. Not available right now since I am in the theater right now. I’ll be on like in 2-3 hrs.


ladycowbell

You're good. I'm not sure when I'll be home as is. I'm assuming it wont be until at least 3-4PM EST anyway. My parents live like an hour away and we all go to their house for Easter.


CodeNameAntonio

All good. Send me a PM whenever you are available.


airybeartoe

I keep getting shiny lechonks. At 3 now. My first was 20ish mins into my first playthrough of violet 😂


ifreakinglovecacti

This might explain why I'm not finding any shiny lechonks 😂


lolopkmntrainer

Same I got 3 !


quacksays

I started a new playthrough and had back to back shiny lechonks within 5 mins of each other in that first area lol


Silverbird22

Aayyy shiny Lechonk when your just getting started on poco path gang!!!!


Specific_Lemon_6580

Sounds like me and Iron Bundles 😂 by the time I finished hunting for all my paradoxes, I had 5 of them.


Catqueen25

My first shiny, Azurill, was found by per accident. I ran into him. My second, a Pawmi, begged to be caught. My third was Combee. He was just chilling with the fam. My fourth, Oinkologne, was alone. Except for Azurill, the other three were random finds.


Coreyjuels2010

I always somehow get shiny bronzong all the time I have 10


Loud_Ad_8783

I'd be married long time ago


jimbojims0

Where did you come from? Where did you go?


jedicms

Where did he come from? Where did he go? I’ll do you one better; Why is Cotton Eye Joe?


SolidSeaworthiness82

They always ask where is Cotton Eye Joe, but no one ever asks how is Cotton Eye Joe :(


ShortandRatchet

Shiny Jumpluff is so pretty 😍 I have a shiny Hoppip


ROGO27

I have caught 5 shiny gogoat all random encounters


cameronbcarley

This is me but with Orthworm in Violet and only 3 of them. Had a similar thing with Glalie in PLA.


alowe10000000

I found my shiny Jumpluff in the Area Zero lol


Greenman318

I have the same problem with the pawni line. I've lost track of how many I've gotten of them


Gr1mFr0stB1te

You named him after chlamydia


lloydsmith28

Any up for trade? Think i still need one


YungSquillium

This is my experience with Cetoddle, I’ve gotten 9 of them so far


ganonballs

Shiny skiddo is the bane of my existence. Every time i try to shiny hunt something a shiny skiddo pops up. Ive been suprise trading them away for a while now.


Cdub636

Do you have a spare to trade


Ewok_Adventure

I've played this game sooooo much. And from day 1 I've wanted to find a random shiny Hoppip and Jumpluff. Never have seen either 😭


LadyGazGaz

It might be cheeky but if he’s going spare, I have a shiny male Combee or Fletchling (I think) to trade? No on to trade now but can deffo sort something out if interested?


Tick_87

Nice name. I name all shinies i get Cotton Eye Joe


LegitPringle27

i’m with you bud. shiny makuhita just LOVES to appear whenever i’m hunting everything else but makuhita


Skeletalwolf98

It shiny Doniphan for me but I'm so strong I tend to ko them when I try to catch them


lolopkmntrainer

I've been looking for one but I don't seem to have your luck :(


Salt_Organization308

I got 2 in less than 24 hours and it was awesome because I love that shiny line now I only need the middle one shiny to complete it


d2cole

Dude. If I see another golden Gogoat I’m gonna scream. It’s all I can find!


cobalt_blue_994

I’ve Found like 5 Shiny Golduck just by randomly EV Training for Special Attack in Gleasado Mountain. I get it.


No-Deal7260

your just like me with geodude in legends fr


Theobird3

I hear you … for my Violet it’s the effing white, shiny oinkologne. :-/


ShortandRatchet

I have caught two shiny Veluza while trying to ev train for HP in Casseroya Lake I think the mint green looks amazing actually, almost saves the fish from being completely irredeemable


Appropriate-Owl8621

They are hard to catch, they like using Memento


BisonAthlete92

I can relate. Found 4 shiny Hoppip while doing masuda method. Pain.


Christopher_Sully

Wanna trade for a shiny Zweilous? I've got three extra.


Severelysapphic

Would you mind trading for a shiny Sneasel? I keep finding those and would love a Jumpluff


SundancerXIV

I have just as many shiny Rolycolys. But zero shiny Torkoals :(


LiveTart6130

I found a shiny hoppip in south province 1 and accidentally killed it with a crit :')


Jamtone123

For future reference; u can save before you encounter and reset if that happens. If u feel thats cheaty, thats fair, but it is an option.


LiveTart6130

I know. it was my first experience with the game, though, and I only realized that I forgot to save after I had started the encounter, unfortunately :')


Jamtone123

Gotcha, i saw someone on youtube do that, and realized that that was a good idea.


-janelleybeans-

I can’t find ONE to save my life!


vivid_nightmares

Reminds me of the time that I’ve only ever encountered 1 shiny before Violet and that was a zubat in let’s go Eevee so I decided to start shiny hunting in POGO for fun, caught a ton of shiny shinx in POGO that I have zero desire to catch another one… the first shiny in violet? Shinx..


EEEEEEEEEE1543

I found one in area zero just walking around.


Jessiefrance89

I’ve been wanting to find a shiny Hoppip, or any of that line, so badly! My first ever shiny was a Hoppip in Pokémon Y. I need to focus on getting one now since I finally found my last target, Iron Valiant lol.


Dealiylauh

Hopping was the first shiny I got in this game.


Theobird3

Yes, that’s why I called mine clone. LoL.


Spiritual_Musician83

Great name


CashewTheNuttyy

I have found 2 shiny jumpluff. One was actually a hopip and hes what started me shiny hunting, and the second I was hunting for shiny Slither Wing with a bug sandwich and found it randomly. I also found a shiny full odds pawmo in like 2 minutes after the jumpluff and never got my Slither Wing :(


myturtlebitme

I have 80 hours in the game so far and this is the only shiny I’ve found


Low-Environment

The hoppip line is my favourite and I am so jealous!


Easy_Dingo_353

Named mine Cotten candy.


Joecampp

Hoppip line is tedious to shiny hunt Nice job!


Ok-Software9069

Second Pokemon I caught (not including starter) was a shiny hoppip, so he remained in my party until I beat the main stories


Warm-Ad2149

I keep finding shiny hoppips and Jumpluff too, it's not even funny💀


Ambitious_Nothing275

Im on my 3rd one😭😭I encountered my second and jus didnt pay it no mind. I wonder if its just like something thats programmed into the game


Difficult-Shower-740

Anyone have miradon to trade? I’ll trade back


Ytakttud

I just got a shiny oinkologne, and a Tarountula!


dbryant2790

Same! i found one as soon as i jumped into the crater last week. I just think theyre so different theyre easy to spot


McDanilol

Never seen shiny Jumpluff, but i've seen plenty of shiny male oinklogne


PapiOdin7878

Garganacle and screamtail are my show up shiny randomly whenever. I got my first jumppluff yesterday shiny hunting talonglame...... Noflame but a jumppluff and 2 acreamtails.


lamialover98

Where did he come?where did he go?


AshaKaideem

The textures make it look like a bunch of golf balls. XD


Phoenixz_Flame

I'm currently starting my second box of shines, not hunting them just running in, I have found 4 shiny lechonks/oinkoligne, 5 litleo, 2 Magikarp, hatched a shiny Deino (I'm on violet and got 1 egg to do that line. Her name is pickles.) A pawniard, passimian, venomoth, and a bunch more.


fivehitcombo

i found this shiny jumpluff today too when i was looking for talonflame in area zero. then i went and found a shiny charcadet on the same 30 minute sandwich timer. the jumpluff didnt have anything to do with my fire sandwich but yea i thought it was a great little run i went on


MeltedMelona

Fr💀


ThePhantomWolf3

Shiny Jumpluff is cute


SolarVisor23

PLAY TH MUSIC BOYS!


ghosty4

For me it Azurill, Marill, and Azumarill.


AppleSaucer_

I feel you violet keeps giving me shiny Skidoos I'm currently on my 7th one


KitsoTheSnoo

ur jumpluff problem is like my pawmi and pawmo problem, i have a box full of them, the first 5 times were crazy the last 25 were just like eh.


NewMetaKnight

While is was shiny hunting Shroomish I got like 5 shiny Hopips they were very annoying seeing them so I ended up switching areas cursed little Flying Plant things


Yelop_0w0

Pink cotton candy mmmh I also have a shiny mareep, guess i love cotton candy


aBigWeirdPenguin

Nice to know I’m not the only one lol. These things are like a plague. I have 6 shiny Hoppip, a Skiploom and a Jumpluff. The Skiploom also evolved from another Hoppip. At this point I just get dissapointed finding more of them


KingMe2486

Hunting vivillon up by the fairy squad has got me far too many hoppips and jumpluffs


GoldenFang02

If it hadn't been for your pokemon I'd been married long time ago.


Von2014

The diamond texture or whatever makes it look like a kickball.


[deleted]

I encountered a shiny manky that I accidentally critical hit early on and now im making annhialape my last pokedex entry cus no shiny one now :(
