This is the most coherent version of this information I've seen. The info graphics on screen help quite a bit, and it clearly shows that you you weren't just rambling on about this like quite a few others...
@@AustinJohnPlays this is different info than other sources (e.g. Serebii) are giving I really hope your math & understanding is correct but could you provide some proof or evidence, please?
My only wild full odds shiny was a kakuna back in my 4th run of pokemon heartgold. And i thought my sister deleted it. But the save remained after all these years. Now a beedrill
After doing the battle combo I can answer that question: - You can save and sleep your game but don't turn off the game (it will break the chain) - Don't fight any other pokemon other than the one you're hunting - running away from an accidental encounter will still keep the chain and will not break it
Shiny hunting is NOT fun. I remember with my shiny charm in Pokemon X whilst doing Masuda method, 8 hours of breeding my vulpix a day. It took me 3 months to get 1 shiny, and it wasn't the nature or max IVS so I had to keep going. It wore me the hell out.
Someone needs to tell Austin to do more research, Nintendo released the method for shiny hunting in the new games and they started clearly that there is no catch combo.
@꧁sᴛᴀʀʀ ғʟɪɢʜᴛ꧂ Yeah and that would make it worse, but I'm assuming you meant beginner and not after which still doesn't help. He could easily delete or update this false information and save people from wasting time.
That's cuz he's seeing about half of the method, Nintendo released a statement about it. Just battle 500 of that Pokemon and shiny charm helps, but there is no combo so don't worry about it.
"shiny hunting is NOT easy, and it is NOT fun." **agrees in still attempting to try and encounter a shiny galarian Corsola which is a 0.000000625 percent chance of encountering** edit: grammar
If you're still hunting something and you're having a hard time with it take a break and Hunt something else for a little bit, I Hunted Litwick for about a month then decided to take a break and hunt a random Pokemon and got a shiny in under 30 eggs, If you're having a hard time just take a break and try to have fun with it, "laughs in non shiny slowpoke"
Yoooooo, this same exact thing happened to me. Steps away from the ice town a female Sneasel rushes out of the grass to jump me. My first ever shiny, my heart was pounding the whole battle.
Same with me but a Seismitoad.. I only fought it cause I needed one for dex and it was shiny.. which made me wonder how many other shinies I've dodged..
JVEE SOOKIE Dec 31 - Jan 03 you can update your wild area news. The current promoted dens have an 8% chance of being a guaranteed square shiny Magikarp, and a chance for hidden ability and/or egg moves. Check AJP’s videos on raid den date spamming to ensure you can get one before time’s up.

Too bad his info is wrong. The number of pokemon caught/defeated increases the number of extra rolls.. ( at 500 being 6 rolls ) Which would be about 1/500 like he said BUT without the chain there is no extra rolls. And it doesn't cap at 2 like stated. So at a 25 chain with 500 defeated you have a 33% chance for a 1/560 chance NOT a flat 1/560 You would only be getting it 1/3 of the time so in reality your odds are more like 1/1600 at a 500 + 25 chain.

I've never caught a random shiny before. In this game, I was able to randomly find a shiny Wooper in the wild, and I have to say this shiny Quagsire is a staple in my team
I’ve been shiny hunting shellos since forever. I’m pretty sure I’ve encountered at least 800. Why can’t it be like my random ultra shiny baltoy. Edit: got it. Turns out the encounter method is broken and I Masuda method hunted it. It’s done.
Thank you Austin. I'm breeding shiny Alolan Ninetales & I didn't know what the best method was for breeding a shiny & you made it so damn simple so thank you!
I’ve bred two shinies through the Masuda method so far, a galarian ponyta and a dreepy. The shiny ponyta was my third egg hatched, while my dreepy was probably close to the 300th, but they were both quite easy to get, specially considering I don’t have the shiny charm yet!
@@rafaellabressan5474 oh nice! Ive finished the game two days ago and started my first shiny breeding hunt yesterday. I am currently at 125 koffings, looks like it will take a while
SteffanieVlogs my recommendation is to go with something with high spawn rates in the wild! Just caught my first ever shiny rolycoly day 2 of the game by grinding route 3 in a small patch of grass with high spawn rate rolycoly
I got a yellow Caterpie when I spotted a shaking grass while a a Wooloo simultaneously appeared next to me. When I done with the shiny capture, the battle with Wooloo started. Whoa!
I used masuda method (without shiny charm) and after around 270 bred rowlets i finally got a shiny one. Happiest pokemon experience ever as it was my first shiny i actually worked for. The first legit shiny i got was a pikachu but i barely had to do any work, after like 5 or 6 pikachu max raid battles i got a shiny. I put more than 15 hours into the rowlet though.
Cold yosh bruh...I get a shiny Magikarp 3 out of 8 times I battle a Magikarp in G-max raid..but you have to battle G-max Magikarp a couple times or so.
I hatched 729 eggs for shiny Sobble and Shinx, Masuda method, without shiny charm. I walked into a random Dynamax den and found a full odds shiny Drednaw right after I gave up. Fun times :,)
The first ever galarian zigzagoon I found was shiny Edit: now that the comment blew up has anyone got a spare grookey, and sobble male and female and a female scorbunny
Yo, you don't need the oval charm. You don't need heat body. Just use the first breeding center with the long bridge; Put in a pokemon, preferably with the stone that passes its nature to the offspring. Put in the other pokemon. Bike across bridge all the way to the trainer and rocks, return to start. Grab egg. Repeat circuit. Before you can grab your sixth egg, the first will hatch. Every time you complete the circuit, you hatch AND get an egg. So basically grabbing anything that increases egg production and or hatching time is pointless because with the base timing, it's nearly perfect (like 10 step differential)
Can someone tell me if I doing this right I’ve got an English ditto with a Japanese toxitricity If I breed those 2 will I be doing the masuda method correct
I have a question If u breed a Gigantamax Pokemon like Hatterene with a ditto and also get a shiny version will the breeded Pokemon have The special Gigantamax
I have a lot of shinies, and my first shiny was an ACCIDENT. I was breeding for a Snivy in sun and moon, and it was my 1ST ever egg I would hatch, and my 1ST egg that was Snivy, WAS SHINY. Also, I have 3 Shiny Magikarps that we’re in RAIDS.
I found a solrock farm and am I using it to get my first shiny! I am on a 50 or 60 streak. I have battled 68 total! The grind is ROUGH Edit: I justgot to550 solrock
Does Itallian count as a different language from English? Because I've got 2 Itallian Ditto, both with full perfect IV's that I've been trying to use for shiny breeding.
I've made a Japanese Ditto in Pokemon Sword and I traded it to my friend's English version of Sword. Does the Masuda method still work or does it only work if he has Shield?
it still works it doesn't matter if it goes to the same game or to the other one. As long as your japanese ditto was from a game that was in the japanese language (it should say JPN in the top right of the summary of the ditto) and was originally from japan (or any other region different from yours... if someone had their game in japanese in germany for whatever reason) then the masuda method should still work.
Just 1 question. I have a 5iv ditto from the same region as me , but I have a pokemon I want to be shiny from a different region. Will this work Or it has to be a different region ditto?
Thank you for explaining this properly as watching aDrive and smk's explanations are contradicting and confusing and this one explains it precisely and clearly. Thank you
You're a friggen gem, thank you for all your help with breath of the wild and s&s. I'm nearly completed with my pokedex the version exclusives still evade me though
Man your the best! Every time a new Nintendo game comes out I always rely on you for help and tips. TYSM! Love your channel and love your videos (also I was here before 800K or 700K I think.)
Me: *watching Austin John Plays whilst playing through Pokemon Shield again* Austin's Video: (WATCH MY VIDEOS IN THE BACKGROUND TO KEEP YOU COMPANY) Me: One step ahead of you B)
I can't get a foreign ditto, so for Masuda method I just use the Pikachu from Home. It's in two egg groups, so it covers quite a lot of Pokémon, plus it's male, so that's a good place to start if you can't get a ditto. I'm trying to find my Pokémon Moon, because I know for a fact I have a shiny foreign Ditto I got from wonder trade. I also have a bunch of other shinies I want to transfer to Shield, so fingers crossed it won't be lost forever
those factors you listed for battle combos do no effect the odds of getting a shiny this way it depends on the number of times battled(koed or caught doesnt matter it will still raise the count for this but if you run away it will not count)
gotta hunt for 7233hours to catch 'em all slightly discolored!

And i encountered the shiny wingull in pokemon moon well on my way to get a rockruff
I only have 4 shines in my shiny dex 😢
But they are good shiny gyarados which was a magikarp, a hacked shiny rillaboom from a trade and a shiny pawinard which I will evolve
My first shiny in shield was a pidove it's so cute
Mine was a Wimpod. I failed it.
DylDyl 55 bruh moment, we’ll good luck getting another one!
I completed the game without getting one :( hatched so many ponyta eggs with foreign ponyta :( no luck. Will try again soon!
SteffanieVlogs my recommendation is to go with something with high spawn rates in the wild! Just caught my first ever shiny rolycoly day 2 of the game by grinding route 3 in a small patch of grass with high spawn rate rolycoly
SteffanieVlogs good luck any way you go with it! I’m currently hunting a shiny dewpider is ultra moon, wish me luck
Been waiting for this guide. Thank you as always Austin!
Go on serebii
When the vid started the mic was covering the P on his sweater and I stg thought he would be dropping “Austin John lays” merch 😂
I got a yellow Caterpie when I spotted a shaking grass while a a Wooloo simultaneously appeared next to me. When I done with the shiny capture, the battle with Wooloo started. Whoa!
I used masuda method (without shiny charm) and after around 270 bred rowlets i finally got a shiny one. Happiest pokemon experience ever as it was my first shiny i actually worked for. The first legit shiny i got was a pikachu but i barely had to do any work, after like 5 or 6 pikachu max raid battles i got a shiny. I put more than 15 hours into the rowlet though.
I found my shiny beheeyem without the shiny charm in less than 50 eggs... no wonder my friends say I have good RNG
Everyone: I hate shiny hunting
Me: agrees in suicided shiny geodude
Also me: disagrees in 3 shiny magikarp from the boosted raid event
Can I get one
Cold yosh bruh...I get a shiny Magikarp 3 out of 8 times I battle a Magikarp in G-max raid..but you have to battle G-max Magikarp a couple times or so.
I got 7 shiny magikarp
@@batwayne708 I need one 😭
Thank you. Straight to the point
You’re probably one of the best Pokémon youtubers ever you get to the point and don’t ramble on like some other Pokémon youtubers
I hatched 729 eggs for shiny Sobble and Shinx, Masuda method, without shiny charm.
I walked into a random Dynamax den and found a full odds shiny Drednaw right after I gave up.
Fun times :,)
When he talks about how long and hard it was to complete the pokedex don't get intimidated he was VERY overdramatic about it.
The first ever galarian zigzagoon I found was shiny
Edit: now that the comment blew up has anyone got a spare grookey, and sobble male and female and a female scorbunny
Whaaaaaaat
The first shiny I got was in Black 2 and it was a Pidove. I thought the game was broken and I turned the NDS off lol
nice, ur extremely lucky lol... im at like 3000 encounters on a chain for zigzagoon with no luck, like 35 hours into the hunt currently
Dude me too! What are the evens.
I got a shiny spear one in moon 1:06 hours into the game
7:24 Do we have an update on the "things that we don't know if they affect the combo"?
Omg thank you somebody surprised traded me a ditto from Japan,now I can do the masuda method
Yo, you don't need the oval charm. You don't need heat body. Just use the first breeding center with the long bridge;
Put in a pokemon, preferably with the stone that passes its nature to the offspring.
Put in the other pokemon.
Bike across bridge all the way to the trainer and rocks, return to start.
Grab egg. Repeat circuit.
Before you can grab your sixth egg, the first will hatch.
Every time you complete the circuit, you hatch AND get an egg.
So basically grabbing anything that increases egg production and or hatching time is pointless because with the base timing, it's nearly perfect (like 10 step differential)
Catching a shiny pokemon being hard:
Me gets a shiny: Stonks
You’re the best pokémon youtuber I ever watched !! Keep on like you doing
I might go for corviknight he’s cool
I love the white
Still hunting for a charmander in ultra sun 😅
I'm also hunting charmander but in ultramoon
Hunt for him in let’s go, it’s easier
I really want him in a moon ball it’s my favourite poke ball and I’m thinking of running a counter set
Thomas Carew-Sayles how long does it take to get a shiny ? I know it varies but on average for how long will you be doing the same thing over and over
Vlone Brazy I got shiny rayquaza in ulta sun in 15 mins
Discovered you because of Animal Crossing, and now I’m here because of Pokémon. Thanks for being a reliable video game source!
Thanks for providing actual information that isn't drawn out for ad revenue
I think I’ll pee myself out of fear if I find a shiny in a raid
Just make sure to keep ur master ball for that
@@Vyuel wtf, who would waste a master ball on that?
@@LookingTheBest becuase in the raid dens have a lower chance of catching the Pokémon and lower if it gets shiny
I got a shiny comfey out of one so try doing ping some
Can someone tell me if I doing this right
I’ve got an English ditto with a Japanese toxitricity
If I breed those 2 will I be doing the masuda method correct
Yeah your good
I believe so
Finished my dex today. Let the shiny hunt begin.
does the masuda pokemon have to be from a different language?
because i have a chinese ditto and got a shiny on my 480th encounter with egg
I have a question
If u breed a Gigantamax Pokemon like Hatterene with a ditto and also get a shiny version will the breeded Pokemon have The special Gigantamax
I have a lot of shinies, and my first shiny was an ACCIDENT. I was breeding for a Snivy in sun and moon, and it was my 1ST ever egg I would hatch, and my 1ST egg that was Snivy, WAS SHINY.
Also, I have 3 Shiny Magikarps that we’re in RAIDS.
Just got a masuda ditto and completed my dex last night!
10:09
you said “watch my videos in the background to keep you company”
Wait- Howd U know i-🤭
Your videos make great background shiny hunting videos
Wait im using a ditto i caught in-game and a Japanese male charmander ,so should that work?
I found a shiny impadimp in the glimwood tangle
rachel Hannah BRUH I WANT ONE
rachel Hannah congrats
same but i failed it :(
I found a solrock farm and am I using it to get my first shiny! I am on a 50 or 60 streak. I have battled 68 total!
The grind is ROUGH
Edit: I justgot to550 solrock
Good luck friend. I'm on 87 Stuffles so far
4:59
Me: Am I a joke to you?
Does Itallian count as a different language from English? Because I've got 2 Itallian Ditto, both with full perfect IV's that I've been trying to use for shiny breeding.
Does the Shiny Method work for Gigantamax Pokémon? Pokémon battled is what I mean, with shiny charm. Does it work for Dens basically?
Watching this video and caught a shiny Corviknight whilst hunting for dreepy
@Micah Solomon rather would've got dreepy. I'm like 3 hours in
Finally got dreepy after 4 hours, i didnt know rain and thundering where 2 different types of weather so half the time was wasted
Lol yea for me drakloak showed up less than 2 mins in
@@JokerX7837 same
Still looking though
@Micah Solomon lucky
i lucky got a japanese ditto in surprise trade and i’m just on gym 5
Does a hacked shiny Japanese ditto even work? I'm about 180 eggs in on squirtle and nothing.
I've made a Japanese Ditto in Pokemon Sword and I traded it to my friend's English version of Sword. Does the Masuda method still work or does it only work if he has Shield?
it still works it doesn't matter if it goes to the same game or to the other one. As long as your japanese ditto was from a game that was in the japanese language (it should say JPN in the top right of the summary of the ditto) and was originally from japan (or any other region different from yours... if someone had their game in japanese in germany for whatever reason) then the masuda method should still work.
Just 1 question. I have a 5iv ditto from the same region as me , but I have a pokemon I want to be shiny from a different region. Will this work Or it has to be a different region ditto?
It’ll work
Thank you for explaining this properly as watching aDrive and smk's explanations are contradicting and confusing and this one explains it precisely and clearly. Thank you
0:33 u just changed my whole perspective
You're a friggen gem, thank you for all your help with breath of the wild and s&s. I'm nearly completed with my pokedex the version exclusives still evade me though
Which version do u have
Shield version, wonder trades helped alot last night, I'm nearly finished!
I found two shinys in my first playthrough and I wasn’t even trying lol
Man your the best! Every time a new Nintendo game comes out I always rely on you for help and tips. TYSM! Love your channel and love your videos (also I was here before 800K or 700K I think.)
Me: *watching Austin John Plays whilst playing through Pokemon Shield again*
Austin's Video: (WATCH MY VIDEOS IN THE BACKGROUND TO KEEP YOU COMPANY)
Me: One step ahead of you B)
Outside of all the pokemon games I've played, the only time I've seen a shiny was a red Gyarados.
Guess which game that was from
Silver/Gold
That moment when you find a shiny bit don’t know it
Nobody:
Me:
Ad: *LETS PLAY RAID SHADOW LEGENDS*
😂😂😂
your profile picture points that out even louderb
No I don't want to play raid shadow legends leave me alone I just want to watch my video
I can't get a foreign ditto, so for Masuda method I just use the Pikachu from Home. It's in two egg groups, so it covers quite a lot of Pokémon, plus it's male, so that's a good place to start if you can't get a ditto.
I'm trying to find my Pokémon Moon, because I know for a fact I have a shiny foreign Ditto I got from wonder trade. I also have a bunch of other shinies I want to transfer to Shield, so fingers crossed it won't be lost forever
I also cannot get the shiny charm, because I know nobody with Sword version, so rip
those factors you listed for battle combos do no effect the odds of getting a shiny this way it depends on the number of times battled(koed or caught doesnt matter it will still raise the count for this but if you run away it will not count)
