I would advise to release your videos in parts, like this video can be in 4 parts of 5 min each, so we get updates and dont have to wait for months, you would also get more views 👍
I rewatched the footage, and Blaziken got pokerus in victory road while I was grinding so I could run from rayquaza, it spread to other party members and then to rayquaza once I put him in my party! I didn’t even realize until after I did the voice over :)
I personally love when you don't boost the odds, despite how long it takes. It shows you the actual journey and dedication it takes. Congrats on this journey and the shinies, great video!
The 30,000+ encounters for a Sableye earned you a subscriber well done sir. Idk any other human in existence with that kind of patience. I see Victory Road was even more insane. Also wanna mention, back in the day my brother got shiny Groudon on his very first ever encounter
DUDE, recording yourself so we can hear your live encounter reaction is the best part of a shiny only video!! Please think about this for future videos and you will be at 100k subs in no time!!
I'll be honest man I wasn't gonna sub at first just because this is my first time coming across your channel and I just wasn't sure yet but the sub plug at 6:32 was so prefect because you didn't just ask for a sub you asked for the opinions of your viewers on how to earn it and tbh, that's exactly how you do it. One step closer to the 100k and I'm glad I'll get to be a part of the journey :)
Me and my nephew found a shiny frame right at the start of emerald when you pick a starter. Within the span of one hour, we found five shiny poochyena's and one shiny torchic by continously softresetting.
Honestly I'm not much a pokemon video person, I just love the games and this somehow got on m frontpage. I love the quick pacing of your voiceover. Subscribed, let's get you to that 100k.
I enjoy watching old gen pokemon videos, and I find myself watching some that have been uploaded years ago. As I’m typing this, this was uploaded 2 days ago, so I subscribed! Good luck to 100k.
Few pointers for potential videos: - Keep a counter for encounters, so we have representation of how many total encounters you've had - Consider a small sprite overview to showcase your team as it grows - Overleveling your starter makes battling very unsatisfying(not before Ray, but gyms) - For the love of god, give your pokemon some good moves. All special gyara :
I never sub to channels unless I really really like them. This is a combo of I like your content, and because I can’t imagine the patience it must take to make these lol
I can't imagine how long it must take to do this and the dedication to be months in and want to give up but keep going. Awesome video, I love watching your videos while working or taking a break! Keep it up!
Brooo I don’t know if I’m the only one that realized this but I love the sonic music in the background dude!!! Big sonic and Pokemon fan! Great video too!!!
Idea for an improvement (I already am subscribed, but anyway): I would love to see (or hear) your reaction on finding a shiny 🤩. Always makes it funnier when someone is really excited about something rare.
Also doing a shiny run right now on pokemon SS on an emulator, have had insane luck now for the first five but this last one is taking the longest. Honestly can't even imagine your patience with THAT many resets, if I were you I'd probably put off any hunt that took over 10 K resets for weeks at least. Mad respect.
I love this! I do shiny only play throughs just for fun and it takes me months to complete between working a full time job and being a full time student. I love your passion for the game and motivation to share this experience with the rest of us. I hope you can continue this and I'll be a supporter to you and the whole shiny hunting community.
Hey, i dont know if you would read this comment, but i want to thank you for making this video. It features my favourite gen and my favourite starter torchic which is rare since everyone mostly use mudkip or treeko. You're voice is very calming making the video very entertaining. Thanks again ❤
im shiny hunting atm at pokemon alpha saphire and just seeing myself losing my mind but then hearing ur numbers are going crazy that dedication jsut deserves a like and a follow keep it up king
Your dedication to these shiny hunts is so awesome bro, I just stumbled across your channel today and was very easily convinced to subscribe. Keep these hunts up my man it's awesome!
The shiny reset not working in Emerald specifically is because the Game's starting seed is always at "0" and I'm pretty sure this affects every single generation method (though each method is slightly different), and thus makes the shiny frame sequence entirely predictable and repeatable. This means you could have done soft resetting for Rayquaza and Groudon similar to Torchic, since a shiny frame for a stationary Pokemon (Torchic counts as one) seemed to be very early for you. You also have to take into account that Emerald runs at 60FPS, so frames are always advancing. Even without knowing when a shiny frame is, wanting to soft reset in Emerald is theoretically possible up until a certain point, you just need to wait longer each time before interacting with the pokemon.
I played Emerald so much and was so young, I was going through the map bored and ran into a green Zubat in Meteor Falls. I had no idea what I had all the way up to the pink Zubat
I have a emulator on my phone so i can have nostalgia playing older pokemon games again, i started emerald and in less than 10 encounters casually going through a route i found a shiny lotad. cant lie I started freaking out 😅
Since you have an early shiny frame (presumably, since you reset for torchic), wouldn't it have been a better idea to reset for rayquaza qnd try to hit the same timing as you did for your starter?
If you only knew how much time I spent incorrectly soft resetting my SP on Emerald back in the day to get a shiny Rayquaza, only to just learn this 😭😭😭
I’m always happy to see a new shiny only challenge. Just makes me want to buy myself some pokemon for ds and forget about all those titles on my PC im playing thru…
I tried to do this with shiny normal types. Granted, I used an emulator with an increased chance of finding a shiny. 1/100 chance. There is no normal types that can learn dive. We made it to Mossdeep.
@@caspervestergaard2430 I work a full time job and I don't have the patience due to an autistic defect in my brain, so I'm not dealing with the broke ass 1/4000+ percent chance that the base game brings. It was meant to provide me with something to do on my breaks/meal break. That's satisfying enough for me.
Found your vids last night! Like your style and your vids are great! Thank you for taking so much time grinding and resetting, these playthroughs are so interesting. I could watch them all day 😂
Haven’t watched your content in so long, but was thinking about your vids the other day and then you upload a thumbnail of my favourite Pokémon line and my favourite game… oh we’re back baby!
Bruh I just discovered your channel with this video and I must say: after 35k encounter in a cave u deserb every subs in the world. And for what I can see you don't need any improvement, so keep going strong! ❤❤
GG’s for the shiny rayquaza, I’m currently doing a fire red shiny only and I’ve got charizard, gyrados and dragonite. I’ve been stuck on gastly for around 3 months and whilst looking for it have been doing the pick up strategy so my team is level 74/75 with over 150 each of rare candies/nuggets/pp ups and I haven’t even done the 4th gym yet. It’s driving me crazy to say hahaha
Just yesterday I saw your FireRed video. I do a shiny only gameplay myself, then today BAM Emerald. I am in the mood for some Emerald shiny hunting now 😇
Just found your channel 2 days ago. What are the odds. Shinies are crazy. My cousins & I all played pokemkn religiously as kids for years and years and never encountered or even heard of shinies

You did it man! Congratulations on hitting 100,000 subscribers 0:50 🎉
I really loved this video so I started my own Shiny-Only challenge in Emerald itself, got a shiny Torchic in 34 resets lol.

Smart play going for the master ball on Shiny Rayquaza. But if you ever feel like doing it again, the Luxury Ball matches it perfectly.

Thanks for taking the time to make this man. I can only imagine how tedious it really was.
That shiny Hariyama felt like a misfit in society and wanted to join your crew.
Shiny sableye is a rare gem of gen 3, fair play for the grind mate 👌🏻
Hey I just realized that even though you named KFC after the restaurant, it can also mean "kung fu chicken" which still fits
gen 3 Sableye has such an amazing shiny. it looks like chocolate with m&ms in in it.
That nordvpn ad you made was honestly brilliant the way you did it. Nobody will be skipping over that, bravo to you.

1 double kick = 2 kicks

Yo, you're almost at your goal of 100k subs! I'm fully supportive of your endeavor! Only a couple thousand to go! WE ARE ON THE GRAND LINE AHOY!

Well, whats the point then? If its 82 times as likely to find a shiny, its 1/82th of the satisfaction.

I've played 5 gens of pokemon and never encountered a shiny. And this guy is just out here making teams of them 😂
Amazing vid! Always wanted to try playing on the older games but they're so expensive nowadays. Keep up the good work!!
This Guy: Struggling to find shinies
Meanwhile me: Who randomly encountered a Shiny in Pokemon Emerald without any efforts
Haven’t watched your content in so long, but was thinking about your vids the other day and then you upload a thumbnail of my favourite Pokémon line and my favourite game… oh we’re back baby!
throughly enjoyed this one i cant wait for the next ive watched all of your shiny play throughs now they never let down
underrated channel, dig the vibes.
"I barely knew calculus " is a CRAZY comparison to playing pokemon
My first shiny I ever found was a swablu… I killed it for exp because I didn’t know what it was… I still haven’t forgiven myself.
I jumped in my seat when i saw you had 6 pokeballs to catch that Sableye 😂
I jumped in my seat seeing him get a shiny JOLLY magikarp.. that is some insane luck

This reminds me of my shiny Rayquaza. I actually found it in the first encounter, lol. Wasn't even going to grind for it. Modest nature
I have played Pokémon all my life and i never knew that about Rayquaza, thanks for this was very helpful
You described why I gave up on early gen hunts. I could spend 10 hours recycling the same frames
This video was amazing bro, Worth the amount of time it took
I promised myself not to watch anymore of this autoinflicted torture, but im weak and im going to see it anyway
For 4:02, how did you count how many encounters? Do you have an auto counter? Sorry trying to do a shiny hunt for torchic too
Awesome vid just wondering as it’s hard to find how do you record your gameplay?
You are the GOAT for Pokemon games
Prior to this video I wasn't aware how drastically shiny Sableye has changed
This video makes shiny hunting look easy 😂 but I’ve been inspired to try since I just beat Emerald for the first time since I was like 9 so thank you
The effort in this videos are nonsense and i love them keeep going dude, they are amazing!!!!!
“Groudon, the water type Pokemon.” 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
