    The fact that he got a shiny starter that’s female that has the perfect nature that also has fricking pokerus is absolutely insane, actually complete bull luck like you’re probably the kind of person to hit 6 iron head flinches in a roll, while also getting under odds for 4 shinies is crazy, probably bc of gastly lol.

    • @da_xbox360
      @da_xbox360 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +180

      1/35,790,848,000 is about the odds of this happening
      1/8192 for the shiny at all
      1/8 for female
      1/25 for a specific nature
      ~1/21845 for pokerus
      and to be more specific multiply that by 3 for it being specifically tododile which would be *1/107,372,544,000*
      Chances and probability are weird as hell so this may not be 100% accurate but it defo puts it into perspective how rare this is

      @@da_xbox360well that is calculating the odds for specifically Totodile per starter reset. They are all independent events, so nothing complicated for the calculations, just simple multiplication. My personal recommendation would be to calculate for the odds of that happening for any of the starters, so drop the 1/3, but factoring in the 1/31 for the perfect attack IV

    • @ThemarkofEmboar1
      @ThemarkofEmboar1 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +45

      Factoring in shiny, 31 ATK IV, perfect nature, female, AND Pokerus, this Totodile has a 8.73E-11% chance of existing.
      If my calculations are right, you'd have a better chance at winning the lottery than replicating this Totodile.

    I remember watching the ghastly hunt on yt about a year ago and honestly i am shocked you ever got him. So many odd things i noticed in this video that gave me nostalgia like your standing desk and how the greenscreen couldnt reach high enough. Anyway thanks for being such an entertaining creator for this long kidd i hope you continue to make baller videos

    Tbh, part of me is a bit disappointed this was deathless. Like yeah, it’s awesome you didn’t have to do any more shiny hunting than you did, but idk, I felt like it would’ve been more emotional. Or maybe I’m just a sadist, who knows.
    .

    Edit: okay so I didn’t watch the video fully through, I was close to the end when I wrote this comment, and apparently it wasn’t fully deathless. RIP Pink Heracross, my point still stands though.
    Edit edit: OH CHRIST OKAY LOTS OF DEATHS THAT WERENT SHOWN RIGHT AT THE END HUH. I was always rooting for my girl Deku, very glad she made it through.

    For the people talking about the cheating, I typically group Poketubers into two categories: storyteller and technician. Kidd is all about the narrative, rather than showing us all the move deliberations and damage calcs. The fact that he killed the shiny Ho-Oh after hunting it puts him solidly in the category. Having the transgender Heracross makes the story more interesting, so I go with it. If pchal did something like that, I'd be seriously annoyed because he's all about the numbers.
    Also, the one Poketuber that I think fits across both categories is FlygonHG. He somehow manages to go into the nerdy details and still tell a good story. Totally underrated.

    First shiny stories? Alright.
    My first shiny was also Gen 3. It was a beautiful blue Electrike in Sapphire, caught under Cycling Road. I named them Sapphire as it was only too fitting. Unfortunately, my copy of Sapphire is fake, it's in a gray cart not a blue one, but don't judge, it was a gift that was bought at a sale at my primary school, kinda like a yard sale with a school's assembly hall instead of a yard. Since the cart was fake and my Gen 4 game Diamond detected as such, there was no migrate option. In fact, it erased the save of the Sapphire cart so... yeah. o7 for my first shiny too I guess.

    • @ron4tron
      @ron4tron 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@clairofan01 I was originally going to say similar, until I realised
      A: You didn't factor Pokerus into that, did you? Because it did not start out with Pokerus, but gained it after x amount of battles. Rare, but not exceedingly so.
      B: Would we say the same about it being Jolly? How about 31 in Speed? 31 in Attack and Speed? 30 in both? Why are his specific stats ideal? They obviously aren't.
      It's crazy good, and I wanted to say it was cheated originally, but I'm honestly not sure about that anymore.

    29:02 Dude!! I had a very similar encounter occur once when I was playing Pokemon Crystal.. I was given some false information stating that if I were to use a ton of repel/max repel and walked around the grass around the Shrine then I would be able to catch a Celebi !!! I tried this for HOURS if not days to no avail. I even started to try different patches of grass in other surrounding routes. I probably encountered others , but the one that sticks out in my memory , was a shiny sparkly Chansey and I accidentally K.O'd it and to this day it still haunts me !! I'll never forget it as the Chansey that got away =/ ======================================
