2 tips: 1. if spawns are too slow, you need to be further back by the tree 2. if your pokemon keeps coming back, switch to something like Dragonite or change positions! I ended up struggling a bit to start with my pokemon coming back over and over and then it had a good rhythm! I got really mad to see my silly Dragonite come back to me again and kept trying to send it out only to realize I had gotten the shiny LOL Had enough sandwich time to get a shiny frigibax right afterwards!!
Thank you so much for proving this! I told people on TH-cam weeks ago that this was the way to get one and they laughed and said that sandwiches don't spawn pokemon in tree's. Thank you for putting in to work and proving it.
Just FYI, any 'floating' pokemon works (doesn't have to be the second violet legendary). I've been using roaring moon with this exact method. I'd assume that salamence would work too. Hope this helps!
Not sure if it was posted but you don’t necessarily have to crash into the tree to start it. Placed myself close to the fence, ZL targeted the Applin and used R Let’s Go auto battle with my Scizor (false swipe user) and the Applins would fall and reappear as shown above. It definitely needs to be something that can “reach” the branch either visually or “logically” (wings or can float) tried with a grounded Sylveon but would refuse to attack. Scizor however wasn’t floating or flying, just walking but the Applin still fell off the branch and respawned.
Thanks for the info, I'll try with flutter mane since miraidon's spikes tend to hide the apple sometimes, snd having a shitty vision. I maxed out my TV's saturation and I use the soom so I can better see the color (esoecialky at night)
Pls pin this, this will work with any pokemon the same hight or higher than Koraidon/ Miraidon. For example this will work with Dondozo because it is bigger than Miraidon(it being the largest pokemon) ps I testest this with Dondozo and it works! Great vid btw
Should work with Dondozo, Gyarados, Cetitan, The segment Dundunsparce Dragonair, and Sandaconda. But I only tested Dondozo Edit: pretty much anything that is tall or hovers can do this
I used Chien-Pao instead of my Miraidon or Koraidon halfway through my sandwich & it worked as well. I farmed same tree as in the video & stood between the tree & bush closest to team star base. Chien-Pao made this afk farm a lot quicker & got two shinies on my first run. Good luck guys! Happy hunting 😊
@@papyrusthegreat457 Even still, it doesn't seem to matter about the pokemon you use to auto battle. Maybe it does, but here I don't see a reason. The biggest thing is to be able to make shiny sandwiches/be in post game for shiny charm/or both. I'd think you could do this anytime after getting to the Thickett
Came back here for the 7 star raid for chestnut I can't explain even how easy it was I was literally sitting in my living room drinking my coffee and just seeing this magic work
Thank you for this! Took three sandwiches or so and a couple tries to get the positioning right so that I could just sit and watch but this totally works.
minor addition, doesn't seem to work with encounter power 2 sandwiches (for those of us trying to save Herba Mystica). The other spawns just take up the spaces and so it doesn't spawn consistently which makes you have to manually re-setup.
Thanks for this! On my fifth sandwich, at 19 minutes left, I got my shiny Applin! Just to use up the rest of the time, I kept going and got a second shiny Applin less than 2 minutes later.
There might be a better option for Forretress. Above Cassaroya (?) Lake, there's the autumnal looking forest. One of the ponds there seems to spawn nothing but forretresses over it if you stand at the far end of it.
@@nieqai Why are you auto-battling? If you use a Steel Shiny/Encounter sandwich Forretress is the only thing that will spawn and you can just Picnic reset constantly, it's way faster. A pretty easy recipe for level 3 Shiny/Encounter Steel is: 1 Pickle, 1 Cucumber, 3 Hamburger + 2 Herba Mysticas (Any 2 but don't combine or double up Sweet or Sour).
2:02 very important. Make sure all the Pokémon in the party are high level or level 100 as when I tried this. The auto save being off didn’t matter as when one of my Pokémon levels up after battling enough Applin, the game automatically saved and I lost my two herbs mystica due to me restarting me (due to not getting the shiny). Be warned
@@slippythefrogthey’re saying that even if you have auto save off, if you have a pokemon that can evolve from leveling up from killing all those applin, it triggers an auto save after the volition sequence
@@daman2461 I don’t know. But every time I soft reset, my herba mystica were gone or used up so when I checked the screen, I saw in the corner that it autosaved. Idk what to say else

I was so confused why no aplin were spawning when I had encounter power three, really helpful video and this has to be one of the lowest effort shiny hunts ever. I was trying to get a shiny dratini and had no luck so I switched to this.
I made a list of all Pokémon that can be found in trees. I will update this comment on what works and what doesn’t.

Noticed several problem with this method: - other pokemon distracting the auto pokemon - the applin not respawning from the tree quick enough, my pokemon wandered off
This is so dope!! Thank you!! I've not got any herba mystica yet, but I've had success shiny hunting without it with other methods. It may take a little longer, but I'm determined if nothing else. Thank you for uploading this 👍
@@AprilSunshine I would like some help... It's so hard to get into the raids because they fill so quickly. I also only got sweet and sour herbs so it changes encounter power for catching power...
@@AprilSunshine aww that's really sweet of you!! But my Pokémon aren't really at that level yet, I'd drag the entire raid down. Thank you very much for the offer though. I just need to grind some more 👍
Thanks to this trick, I already have 2 shiny applin after 2 sandwiches, only one more and that's the entire line in my shiny living dex. Looking forward to continuing to fill it thanks to these tricks you're showing us.
Wasn't fussed about the shiny Applin line (until Dipplin at least) as I knew given it's size and colour it was going to be super hard to find, but randomly got the Applin outbreak by Medali so decided to give it a go. Nothing from four and a half herba sandwiches! Half because I rage quit from eye strain and after realising a good number were spawning in the rock 🤦♂️ found this method and while slow and no shiny yet at least I'm not pulling my hair out over it 😅 Edit: got 2 on my second sandwich attempt 👌
im unsure if anyone else has pointed this out, but you absolutely NEED to have encounter level 3 for this to work. I tried it for a bit with only level 2 and my miraidon kept getting distracted by the other spawns, but when I switched over to a level 3 sandwich no other pokémon aside from applin were spawning allowing me to actually go afk rather than redirecting miraidon every 30 seconds. Even if this seems obvious I just wanted to point out how it absolutely wont work (also, additionally you can use the zoom function by pressing the home button twice to get a better look at the tree to see if a shiny spawned)
Im dealing with somewhat the same issue but I have encounter power level 3. When the applin stop spawning for a few seconds the miradon gets distracted by literally nothing and just wonders off. Ive reset over 10 times already but have no luck and it is really getting frustrating having to redirect it so many times and I don’t know what Im doing wrong.
How is this easier than an outbreak? It’s worse odds with only 1 Pokémon at a time. Getting an applin outbreak isn’t easy but once you have on it’s basically a guaranteed shiny
@@bnasty5614 I’m only hoping it’s easier for me. I’ve been using sparkling sandwiches + Applin outbreaks with no luck so, not guaranteed 😅 Ready to try something else
@@doberdemon you say outbreaks plural… are you not resetting them until you get a shiny? Once you get the outbreak with a shiny sandwhich it shouldn’t take longer than an hour to get the shiny
@@bnasty5614 Yep, plural outbreaks. (Tried new ones after an hour of resetting one) Resetting over and over after 60 KOs with nothing lmao. Even with sparkling sandwiches. I’ve had shit luck 😅
I was skeptical at first and really didn’t want to hunt applin despite wanting one badly since SwSh, this is a fantastic method and I’ll be sure to pass this on to friends
I just came up with a similar method, but not AFK and went to YT to see if there's something better than mine. I think with mine there were more spawns, cause I was running between 4 trees, but I had to actively do it, so I may try yours now
If you don't want to use the dash function, you can also lock onto the Pokemon by getting near the tree and then use ZL to enter aiming mode, then throw your Pokemon at it with ZR That's what I did because I don't like pressing L3/R3 on the analog stick
Quick note, you don't even have to charge into the tree, your large pokemon will knock the applin down on it's own. Another tip, you don't need either of the bike lizards. Any decently large pokemon should do the trick, like Garganacl, Gyarados, or Dragonite.
I did this sandwich with an applin egg in my party, and when I went to run over to the tree it hatched a shiny!!!!!!!❤❤❤ Not sure if it's dumb luck, bit I'm grateful!!! Thanks for the hack.
@TheHunt I haven't tried it with the latest patch but it worked for me no problem with the last version. I don't think they would patch it since it's not really a glitch
Hey your video really did help just got 3 shiny Applin form doing this and evole 2 to Flapple and Appleton now I'm saving the last one for the new one Dripplin
I've got a new message to do in the DLC teal mask you go to Apple hills make the same sandwich but keep running up and down the main path in the middle with one of your Pokémon out sending them into different Fields as long as it is dragon sandwich all you get is applin if you do it right
I did exactly what you did, however all that spawns in the tree are komala, oranguru, pineco and spidops. I have no clue how this is happening, since I have encounter power 3 dragon on
The most likely cause is that your sandwich actually just sucks/is incorrect but the game is saying you have the buffs. Aside from restarting or time skipping I would try a different recipe altogether. The bread on top doesn't matter, you can just drop it raw on the plate. What matters is that none of your ingredients fall out EVER, not a single one. The recipe he uses is literally the easiest one but if you don't have that specific Herba Mystica here's the recipe I use for Dragon Types: 1 Cucumber, 1 Pickle, 3 Avocado + 2 Herba Mysticas of *almost* any type (You cannot use Sweet x2, Sour x2 or Sweet + Sour!!!!).
The samwich you made doesn't actually follow the full recipe shown. You only used the 2 herba + one(not two) of the type ingredient. Do you not actually need the onion/pepper/hamburger/2nd type ingredient the chart showed?
I think the Chart you blend in at 2:21 is outdated. A few days ago i found a chart that looked the exact same and it was called "updated" Version. It mainly Focused on the Herba Combinations, since some Combinations dont really work/dont give encounter power.
I traded my Koraidon for a Moraidon, when I try to get it to auto battle, the applin doesn't fall more than once. Pineco or Komala fall out, what am I doing wrong?
I can confirm this methods still works as of Sep 6th 2023. Played using Scarlet and Dragonite as the pokemon to deafeat the Applin that fell from the tree
Found this vid by chance but got my wee apple pretty fast! Took some time to find the perfect spot to stand so my Miraidon would quit coming back every 3 or so KOs but once I got that sweet spot he didn't come back till the shiny popped.
Incase anyone thinks or wonders if it's fixed, its not. If you don't use the sandwich koraidon or miraidon will wonder away since it's not spawning fast enough. Sometimes another pokemon will wonder and redirect them but it's good.
It works. I got mine a few minutes ago and I'm so happy. I used my corviknight instead of my other miraidon because my purple dog isn't ev trained yet so at least it confirms another pokemon that can be used
Thanks for the guide i am able to get 2 shiny applin .needed 2 more to go to conpleted the shiny applin evolution line.sandwich and patience is the key
So I tried this but it didn’t work? I used a level 3 dragon sandwich, It was the same tree, And I used a Koraidon to try to knock it down but an appointment didn’t come out. Can someone tell me what I did wrong?
It has to do with the height of the partner Pokémon. Miraidon and Koraidon are both tall so they reach the branch essentially. I tried a Volcarona for instance and it didn't work. However Dragapult did work for me.
Have fun Apple hunting :)
This is really going to help! Absolutely love this shiny
Appletun is my favorite Pokémon actually
got mine on the second sandwich:))

I learned the hard way that you can't be too AFK, because by the time Miraidon came back over to me, Applin had hit the road and was gone!

I’m guessing you evolved them into Appletun and Flapple so now you might need one more for Dipplin 😁
Good, now you can have a different evolution. There are three paths now

Thank you for this! Ready to have the whole set with the new one dropping next week (caught three with this method today!).
I made a list of all Pokémon that can be found in trees. I will update this comment on what works and what doesn’t.
Tarountula - ❌ (can’t isolate them to trees)
Spidops - ❌ (can’t isolate them to trees)
Slakoth -
Pineco - ✅ (can work if you find a spot to isolate them)
Grafaiai - ❌ (can’t isolate)
Pachirisu -
Applin - ✅
Bounsweet - ✅ (yes, tree right outside los platos)
Fortress -
Oranguru - ❌ (miraidon can’t reach)
I've seen Oranguru on trees too, same with Fortress. But maybe tree method isn't ideal for them since they can be found outside the trees too...

- other pokemon distracting the auto pokemon
- the applin not respawning from the tree quick enough, my pokemon wandered off

this method is easy until your koraidon decides that it's braindead and stares at the applin then runs off
A shiny Applin goes in either a Nest Ball or a Friend Ball.

Recently discovered your channel and I must say to have very informative videos you have another sub keep up the good work
Quick note, you don't even have to charge into the tree, your large pokemon will knock the applin down on it's own.
Another tip, you don't need either of the bike lizards. Any decently large pokemon should do the trick, like Garganacl, Gyarados, or Dragonite.
Fun Fact: This receipe now gives Catch power instead of Encounter power!
Its so satisfying to watch the appling spawn and fall from the tree instantly
I don't understand how three avocados into two herba give you three of everything dragon but I'm not going to question it. This is awesome
Tysm! I got my first ever shiny with this (Excluding the Ponyta on PLA).

@@stevenleonmusici was having the same issue and couldn’t find help anywhere until your comment. Thank you so much!
The samwich you made doesn't actually follow the full recipe shown. You only used the 2 herba + one(not two) of the type ingredient. Do you not actually need the onion/pepper/hamburger/2nd type ingredient the chart showed?
I made it with only the avocado and 2 herba mysticas. Don't need anything else.
The best pokemon for this because his kill animation is when h3 flies i think but he just stays steady when killing the applins
Super excited to do this hunt! My Lunala is doing just fine knocking the Applin out of the tree ^^
I think the Chart you blend in at 2:21 is outdated. A few days ago i found a chart that looked the exact same and it was called "updated" Version. It mainly Focused on the Herba Combinations, since some Combinations dont really work/dont give encounter power.
can you link the chart then ?
You Can get a bunch from Mass Outbreak Applin.
True
At first I thought it didn't worked. But when I looked at the bottom of the tree there was green Applin as the first spawn after the picnic
Awesome video! For anyone having trouble getting the auto battler lined up, alolan exeggutor is pretty much made for this job.
How does this work
Mine gets distracted by all the other Pokémon around and goes back in ball
I traded my Koraidon for a Moraidon, when I try to get it to auto battle, the applin doesn't fall more than once. Pineco or Komala fall out, what am I doing wrong?
Awesome vid, I didn’t expect to see a shiny on a tree today in my game🙏
Still works! Thanks for the shiny Diplin
This method works so well, I got the shiny after about 2 minutes and it crashed my game for the first time since owning it. GG lmao
hand me some of that luck, i’m tryna get mines rn
Funny that this comes up in my recommendation right after I finished my Applin shiny hunt
I can confirm this methods still works as of Sep 6th 2023. Played using Scarlet and Dragonite as the pokemon to deafeat the Applin that fell from the tree
I don't understand how you're getting koraidon to stay still. Mine just starts running all over the place no matter how I position him
Same! 🥲
Maybe you’re not close enough to the fence?
Found this vid by chance but got my wee apple pretty fast! Took some time to find the perfect spot to stand so my Miraidon would quit coming back every 3 or so KOs but once I got that sweet spot he didn't come back till the shiny popped.
I can’t get it to work. My legendary beats applin but then takes off battling other things and won’t stay at the tree
Worked like magic. Got 2 in 30 minutes.
Roaring Moon works really well for this!
Incase anyone thinks or wonders if it's fixed, its not. If you don't use the sandwich koraidon or miraidon will wonder away since it's not spawning fast enough. Sometimes another pokemon will wonder and redirect them but it's good.
I know a giant pit that can let you find only dratinis and can shiny hunt it rly easily
It works. I got mine a few minutes ago and I'm so happy. I used my corviknight instead of my other miraidon because my purple dog isn't ev trained yet so at least it confirms another pokemon that can be used
Thank you so much! I hunted this today for like 3 hours got nothing. Started this method, third one was shiny
Mine isnt spawning, I have lvl 3 for Encounter, Sparkling, and Title yet he doesnt spawn.
Caught one with 5 minutes left on the clock on my first sandwich I’m floored. My luck for these things is usually pants
The miraidon doesn’t keep hitting the tree. He just wanders around when I send him out. Am I doing something wrong?
Same
Lol I was doubting this method for a moment but it really works!!!
Does it actually still work?
The method works for sure but I haven't got a shiny yet.
first sandwich 13min in got my shiny apple! ready for dipplin!
Thanks for the guide i am able to get 2 shiny applin .needed 2 more to go to conpleted the shiny applin evolution line.sandwich and patience is the key
Thank you for posting this but also argh!!!! I’ve been hatching eggs are days trying to make a shiny for the dlc lol. Hopefully this goes faster
So I tried this but it didn’t work? I used a level 3 dragon sandwich, It was the same tree, And I used a Koraidon to try to knock it down but an appointment didn’t come out. Can someone tell me what I did wrong?
The applin didn’t come out because maybe you didn’t dash at the tree fast enough?
Very informative video. Thank you Osirus =D
if it doesn't work for you just stand in an area which still counts as the team star base, that will fix it.
As someone who's favourite Pokémon is Appletun, this is a good day
Do you have to use your alternate box art legend or can you use a different pokemon?
It has to do with the height of the partner Pokémon. Miraidon and Koraidon are both tall so they reach the branch essentially. I tried a Volcarona for instance and it didn't work. However Dragapult did work for me.
@@twistedseraph2437 alright. Thanks!
there’s an updated version of the sandwich chart that only uses pickles, cucumbers, and ingredient for what pokémon
Thanks for this, I think this is one of the recipe lists linked in the description
@@Osirus I personally found it on google images
happy hunting friends glad I could help :)
Accidentally realised you dont need tomatoes
Got one just in time for the DLC, thanks!! ❤
