Pretty incredible coincidence that Sonikks also got Jirachi today, the same day you posted this video!!! Everything about Jirachi always makes for a fantastic story
That’s the most amazing part! My video was Literally rendering as I saw that post on twitter, we had a laugh about it in DMs! Jirachi is freakin magical!
i love how Jirachi has been associated with this whole "extremely rare and tedious but still plausible shiny" event twice now. it's unintentional but it really ties into their role as the Wish Maker.
Fun fact. When I was a kid, I actually got a shiny wish maker jirachi off of my friends bonus disk. I was told it “wasn’t possible” that I “clearly used a GameShark” etc. I stayed silent and in my own bubble about it for a long time. I love when people cover the story in general because it’s a small bit of vindication for me. I’m just happy it lives in my Pokémon home to this day 😊
4:11 no freaking way, I thought I was stupid, I’ve always been a crazy Game completer because I do almost everything the game have to offer to obtain everything. So I used Google to find every hidden item in every single route with the Item finder. And I picked the item on the gill before the one in Wayward Cave, but when I went there I tried to find the red shard for an hour and I couldn’t figure out what I did wrong because the guide clearly showed me there was a red shard in that cave. After all these year I finally got the answer, Thankyou so much been a huge fan of this series since the start 😂
i have the exact same experience!!! i was tryna find it recently cuz wayward cave was one of the few locations i didnt go to before beating the league, and was stuck for a good 20m trying to find this stupid shard ^_^
Dude, that shiny Jirachi segment gave off Summoning Salt vibes in the best possible way. I wouldn't mind at all if you made a documentary just covering the comprehensive history of shiny hunting in different generations. You're clearly incredibly knowledgeable on the topic, and your passion for it is contagious. Honestly, I've watched your videos before, but this is the one that got me to actually subscribe, and it's because of that final segment. Props to you for that.
i totally agree with this comment . well done #Blueboy and thank you for the priceless moment i experienced theough your words starting (12:11). Cheers man.
@@Montymania94 Do not judge them if you are guilty of the same thing. other than that He calls us to correct the wrongdoer and help pull everyone into a proper state of worship and repentance
I love the dialogue changes that compliment you in battling well. Like in Sun & Moon, Guzma gives you props for not using Z-moves against Lusimine. The validation!!
Here's something I thought was interesting. Everyone knows about the Odd Egg in Pokemon Crystal, and how it can randomly hatch into Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue, Smoochum, Elekid, or Magby. But what's important to note is that they all come with Dizzy Punch as a move that cannot be obtained normally. Presumably, this move came from the parent of these Pokemon, as a way to teach the player about Egg Moves. However, it is impossible for either parents of these Pokemon to be able to pass down Dizzy Punch, because the only Pokemon that can learn Dizzy Punch in Gen 2 is Kangaskhan. Kangaskhan is a Female-Only Pokemon species, meaning that it's impossible to pass Dizzy Punch down since breeding it will only produce more Kangaskhan. But in Gen 4, even though the Odd Egg isn't available in HGSS, there is 1 Pokemon that can be the potential male parent of every Odd-Egg Pokemon except for Cleffa and Igglybuff (due to how egg groups work), capable of learning Dizzy Punch: Lopunny Edit: also, my favorite Pokemon is a tie between Dunsparce and Anorith.
Another thing is it’s also impossible to transfer the Odd Egg Pokémon with Dizzy Punch into Bank due to it technically being an illegal move. So stupid lol
Dude, what the HECK. Sonikks got a shiny wishmaker the SAME day you posted this 😭 I literally got chills hearing that part. Love this community and your videos so much.
8:10 funny story, my favorite pokemon is Makuhita, specifically because you get it really early in Colosseum and it's one of the strongest in the game. The whole process of having to open the doors to these shadow pokemon's hearts made me actually connect with them a little better than the other games I'd played as a kid had. Also they're just cute.
My favourite pokemon is Absol. Had nothing to do with the GameCube games though, I was just an edgy teenager and I love dogs so it was a match made in heaven hahaha Too bad it was utter trash back in Emerald because Dark moves were all special attacks lmao Though I, too, have very fond memories of Coliseum and XD
Thank you for including my silly Dugtrio fact in the video! I'm happy to have provided a cool piece of trivia! As far as I could tell, there weren't any other Pokemon out of the original 151 with this kind of thing in their learnset. I have not checked through the entire gen 3 Pokedex, so there might be more in there!
If you go out of bounds in the Alola games, you can find a lot of remnants of other areas that aren't loaded. For example, I noclipped to the Hau'oli City beachfront from the Marina and it had things like trees, the white lines painted on the street, etc.
With the Wishmaker Jirachi there is a way to cut down the reset time with the corruption save method! That's how I hunted my Jirachi and I hope to see more shiny Jirachi in the future
Proud to say I RNG’d Shiny Jirachi a few years ago with Jefe’s help, and a Japanese Pokémon fan who created the tool that I used for part of the process One of the hardest things I’ve done in any game, I popped off so hard I had people down my dorm hall coming to see what happened
OMG I'm actually hunting the Wishmkr Jirachi now! This gave me all the more encouragement to keep the hunt going. I did know about the slightly better Shiny odds for the Jirachi as well- I looked into this hunt a fair bit before I kicked it off. Also, my favorite Pokémon is Weezing.
How are you doing it? I don’t understand papa’s tutorial tbh. What apps are you using and in what order should I download/set them up I mean. Wanted to start the hunt this week but got discouraged lol.
@@pantsmonsterv6 I'm just getting the Jirachi in my copy of Sapphire off of my Colosseum Bonus Disc. If it's not Shiny, I, well, I used to restart the whole game and play up until getting the Pokédex, but I learned earlier today that you can actually corrupt the save file to make it revert to the last save so you can try for another Jirachi much quicker. Don't really know of any apps to use for this hunt.
I’m currently hunting it as well and I’d kinda lost motivation but this video definitely gave me a motivation boost especially after finding out those better odds
For the one about not taking any damage vs Bianca, Cheren mentioned that you didn't lose any HP but you did lose PP. What if you were to not lose PP either, like hack in something with self destruct for Bianca and have something with Damp for yourself. Although I'm almost positive they wouldn't have added anything for it due to it being impossible in the base game, but I guess you never know
Here's something neat. A couple videos back, you had the bit about Lightning Rod increasing call frequency. But there's another ability that has a substantially more obscure out-of-battle effect. In Pokemon Emerald only, if a Pokemon with the Swarm ability leads the party, the likelihood of hearing wild Pokemon cries in the overworld also increases. Because of course it does
My favorite Pokemon is Eevee, though it's definitely been challenged by Espurr... and so long as Sprigatito's evolutions are good, there's a chance it might become a new favorite as well. I like the fluffy babies, and have a weakness for kittens...
In Gen IV, the animations of moves like Spit Up, Strength and Facade cause the sprite of the Pokemon who used it to move 1-2 pixels in a certain direction. Apparently the effect is cumulative, but I'd love to know if it's possible to make a Pokemon's sprite move completely off the screen with this method. Maybe you could be the first to document this, Phin? 😉
I absolutely love these videos! There are about a million Pokemon fact videos on TH-cam, but yours always feel unique. They’re very in-depth and well researched, but more importantly they have their own sense of style and tone! I am always impressed by the way you end each video with some kind of question, mystery, cliffhanger etc. that makes the viewer hooked for the next one. That’s a freaking genius way to string your videos together, and I can say that it totally works!
I didn’t realize the wishmaker Jirachi could come with different natures. 😂 I tried with several save files as a kid and I kid you not - every single one of them had a Serious nature. I had about a dozen of them before I gave up. I didn’t even think about shiny hunting it. I just wanted one that wasn’t serious. 😂
That's either some seriously (sorry for the pun) bad luck, or you were using a Serious Pokemon with Synchronize as first member of your party and not aware of it.
@@rufusconnolly8489 probably just the bad luck lol. My first Pokémon in my party was almost always Blaziken back then so no chance in someone with Synchronize messing with natures. I kind of wish my GameCube was still working so I could grab a few more Jirachi and see if I get any other natures. 😂
The red shard thing would be caused by the shards incorrectly sharing an ID. This also happens in Banjo-Kazooie regarding the mumbo tokens. There are two tokens that share an ID, and when one is collected, the other is no longer collectable.
This series is so cool, I've been paying pokemon ever since I was 7 and I'm 22 now and I still play it consistently, and I just think it's amazing that we can find out these little hidden secrets in games that have been out for decades
Hey phin! Another cool idea could be the shiny johto starters you can hunt in pokemon xd gale of darkness. A lot of people were skeptical about it actually being able to be shiny but I just got one and speedtwister96 also got one. As far as I know we are the only people to ever get a shiny johto starter in pokemon xd. You are welcome to use my video if you want to use that as a fact!
To add to this, the johto starters also get the elemental hyper beam moves which is the only way to get those moves on a first evolution starter and they also know their egg move!
Wait, that is possible?! I just trained my Typhlosion on Firered, bragging that it knows Reversal and Blast Burn, but apparently there is a more rare version of this beast :O Thanks for sharing :)
These videos make My day it's always nice to see how even something I thought I knew so well can continue to surprise me, that's why I still am into this series all these years later
Altaria is my favourite Pokémon, hopefully with a regional variant in gen 9 (swablu was the main focus on one of the images and altaria seems to fit a Spanish setting)
The ending of this video was phenomenal. I'm skeptical when I see videos like this recommended to me, but ever since the first one of yours I saw a couple months ago I was so happy it just wasn't part of the youtube cesspool and that it was actually good. Keep it up!
My favorite pokemon is Metagross. I was always so sad that I could never get a Beldum early game in most games, but I finally bred the perfect one in Sword and transferred it to Home, then back into a new game and used it as my starter and it was fantastic.
I mean I think the only games that let you have a pseudo legendary relatively early in the game are Gen 1 games, and even then you need quite a bit of money in order to get Dratini from the game corner, otherwise you have to wait until you get to the safari zone.
The Rom hack Pokémon Unbound has psuedo legendaries as its starters, one of them being Beldum. They also let you mega evolve it relatively early, which is nice
The shiny Jirachi started appearing more frequently due to the morphogenetic field 🙃 Also my favourite Pokemon is Altaria. It's half of the inspiration for my name....which I came up with 11 years ago as a kid
Hey, I'm loving this content, I'm beyond impressed that of this whole series, at least 95% of the info is new to me, even from being a regular consumer and searcher of Pokemon trivia since the 00's. Your content and editing are both underrated and deserve all the more love! Plus it was wild seeing that Deoxys Gamestop flyer in your earlier video--I still have that very one stored among my Pokemon books, and had no idea why I saved the thing! If I can be so bold--I was hoping someday to get into both video editing and streaming, to make some similar styled content on different topics; would you by chance have recommendations for editing software, streaming and capture hardware/software, etc? I've never streamed a game before, let alone a handheld or console, and my editing software has always been subpar freeware. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I use davinchi resolve to edit! It’s free and great, I have a few capture card DS’s but to be honest emulators much more convenient for recording! Thanks for enjoying! Best of luck!
@@BlueBoyPhin Awesome man, thanks a bunch, I greatly appreciate it! I'll have to take some detours down the rabbitholes of game video capture and streaming software, and this is a great start! You've more than earned my sub, and I've passed this specific playlist off to some friends that I know would equally appreciate this content!
In all my years playing pokemon I actually NEVER knew that weedle couldn't learn normal moves lol so right at the beginning of your video you hit me with some "fun facts"😅
I love these videos so much and the fact that they cover such obscure things in my favourite series just makes me binge all of them again once a new one comes out. Love the content and please continue teaching us all the weird things gamefreak has hidden from us
The level of inspiration and optimism that seeps from your words as you wrap up your videos is unreal. Job well done. I thoroughly enjoy watching your content, keep up the amazing work!
This series is still so absolutely amazing to me, and I enjoy learning even more things about my absolute obsession! It would be really cool if you covered obscure pokemon glitches! (hopefully ones that aren't just in Gen 1, even though, yes, I know, gen 1 is spaghetti code. I just would really like to see some obscure pokemon glitches ranging in the many games about the time!) Maybe even cover things like the obscure pokemon titles! (Like Pokemon Ranger, Pokemon Colusseum, Pokemon Conquest, Pokemon.. Cafe Mix?) Lmao- I think there might actually be hidden details that we still haven't seen yet in these obscure titles :3
Funnily enough, I've had quite a few in Pokémon Café ReMix! It's mostly been Pokémon models not showing up when selected. I still have a constant issue where, if I select Mewtwo or Dialga for a puzzle, they don't show up next to the customer Pokémon at all.
Hus claim that the sign was only discovered in 2014 is off by a long shot. There are and have been map editors for Pokemon since at least the early 2000's (possibly earlier). I used to play around with them when I was a kid and had noticed that sign. You could see everything in there.
Yo, I'm in this video! I'm the dude that found the shared script ID on the red shards in platinum. (pailmer6 actually doesn't exist) The two hidden items activating the same script basically means that the other one disappears if you pick one of them up. Funny enough, this error also exists in Diamond Pearl. It just isn't a red shard. It probably also exists in BDSP, but I don't have the game, so I can't check that myself.
Jirachi is my favorite pokémon, so it's always amazing to hear facts about it let alone facts I've never heard. Thanks for making this video, it's really interesting
Great video! Loved seeing Chikasaurus get the recognition she's due with all the amazing ways shes able to pick apart these games. Cant wait to see more!
bro im so glad im watching all ur vids. 4:06 i just replayed platinum and was shard hunting for moves. i watched 2 videos on where to find red shards and each video showed both those spots but when i collected the 2nd one nothing was there. i was sure i was just high but now this makes so much SENSE.
Another strange overworld item phenomenon happens in Platinum: There is a honey you can pick up in both the Old Chateau and the Lost Tower. For some reason, both of them actually counts as 3 Honeys
As a 34 year old man that has played Pokémon since day one I highly appreciated your video, anything to do with the franchise especially obscure facts just gets my rocks off, great video and I've also subbed to your channel, looking forward to more great content✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Hey! I found one interesting fact in R/B I haven't really heard mentioned before and thought I'd tell you. Even if you have battle effects turned off, the game still does them against your rival in the champion battle. I have been playing through Red and found it super weird when I suddenly saw the effect for Confuse Ray for the first time lol
My favorite Pokémon is female Pyroar (in my pfp), but a close second is Lugia - and I don't thiiink you've covered it's weird origin story. It's not all that in the games themselves, but it's weird and very cool! I'm currently writing an essay on it and I suppose I'm just curious if you're interested. There's a really neat video on it already, though.
You've become my favorite Pokemon content creator, thank you for taking the time to make and provide the entertainment! Would you be willing to take suggestions for other types of videos like this? I'd like to see someone on YT make a video on the strongest to weakest stat pokemon (or something to that affect) in any or every pokemon game.
Obscure fact: there's a name filter that prevents players from naming pokemon naughty things. It was so strict that back in gen 5 you can't even trade a Cofagrigus unless you gave it a nickname (despite pokemon naming it that in the first place) because it had a bad word in it. This was fixed a generation later.
Wow, this was a great video!!! I really thought there wasn't much I didn't know, and you proved me wrong! And what a heartwarming story about Jirachi. (Also loved the pause screen, gotta say my favorite has to be Pikachu, go figure, but it was my first and has remained as such) so thanks for making my day! And I can't wait to check out your other videos!!! 😎🎶
My favourite Pokemon is Arcanine. Ever since Gen 1. It has never changed, though I will say the Duskull line (more Dusknoir than the other two) is a pretty close second. Not sure why since they're pretty wildly different, but the heart wants what the heart wants I suppose lmao. Keep up the good work! I went through most of your videos pretty recently and enjoy them very much! I'm one voice among many (or one comment I suppose), but I definitely hope that seeing any amount of random people from around the world praising your content brightens your day! 🤘🏻 Keep on rockin'!
An interesting tidbit that I don't think everyone is aware of, is that many moves have changed their animation mid generation. In G1 and G2 it was only for localization (G1 toned down flashes in moves like Hyper Beam or Thunderbolt... ironically though, some were made WORSE, like those in Confusion and Hypnosis - before being toned down properly in Yellow. G2 has different animation for SonicBoom, for whatever reason), G3 has nothing as far as I know, but I could be wrong. But then G4 started doing things, like how Spacial Rend looks different in Diamond and Pearl, or how Thunder looks different in HeartGold and SoulSilver. This would then happen again in G5 with some moves like Aeroblast, Overheat, Shadow Claw, or Night Daze having different animation in Black 2 and White 2, and even again in G6, though it's harder to tell because this is the 3D era now. I know in ORAS, at least two moves were changed - Fire Blast (it now resembles the 大 more) and Thunder (the electric effects are noticeably different; you can easily tell by checking Mixeli's video from 2018 about this move). Some changes are easier to tell, some you wouldn't be able to tell unless you saw the different animations back to back. This technically also happens in G7, but Let's Go games are on Switch while Alola games are on 3DS, so I don't really think it's that notable. Anyway, my favorite Pokemon is Bellossom.
8:09 I like Leafeon a lot! I've been using one for the first time in Legends Arceus and it's really fun, and definetly deserves more attention like other eeveelutions
I encountered something that I think only I've experienced so maybe you or the community can answer this 19-year long mystery for me. Story time! So, the first main series pokemon game I beat was Ruby/Sapphire. My older brother bought Sapphire for me and Ruby for himself the day the game released (only mentioning in case having a Day 1 cartridge is relevant). Anyways, this is where I encountered by first shiny, which was Wingull. I was excited and thought it was a glitch at first, but I caught it anyways, and had my own Wingull with red stripes instead of blue. I was nervous to evolve it into Peliper, but sure enough, the red markings stayed, and I had a shiny Peliper. Neat! Fast forward to high school about 10 years later. Some friends and I were talking about our first shiny encounters, and I mentioned the Wingull. I mentioned that I like how the red looked, even though Wingull isn't the most exciting pokemon. My friend looked at me like I was stupid, and told me something. Shiny wingull doesn't have red stripes. They're supposed to be green. I told him he was wrong, and looked it up when I got home. Literally speechless. It was green. Same with Peliper. I did the logical thing and took a colorblindness test because I know CB people can mix up those colors, but my eyes worked fine. I tried to think back HARD, and I know it was red even to this day. Red and green are opposite on the color wheel, so there's no way I could confuse it for a color so opposite. I've tried googling this, and NOTHING comes up. My running theory is that some shinies may have been different when the game first released, but nothing I've researched has supported this. If anyone asks where the cartridge is now, in probably one of the top 3 worst decisions in my life, I traded it into a GameStop to put money towards a Nintendo DS. Bad move, lost my favorite childhood cartridge, and the mystery with it, and what's worse is that my sister broke my DS a year later lol. Anyways, assuming my 8 year old eyes didn't mistake the colors on ONE pokemon in the entire game and I actually saw what I saw, I would love to see this mystery tackled. It's such a minute mystery about a minute pokemon, so I'm curious to see if this will every get an explanation. Thanks!
Very interesting i feel like somebody will discover this truth somehow someday somewhere id say ima remember this if it does indeed show up in a future video somewhere
Hey phin, stumbled accross your channel yesterday and im currently watching through your backlog now, I really appreciated your secret pause text and my favorite pokemon are totodile and luxray
So, Phin, thanks for the great content. I really hope that you will see this comment, because you made me enjoy Pokemon again. Thanks for the incredible videos and I hope that your channel will keep growing, cuz ya deserve it, mate. Also, Grovyle, no matter that I usually start Gen 3 with Mudkip. One love ❤️
Ok so i began watching your channel when i was looking for stuff to sleep on... And now i use this to sleep and to entertain myself too. I love your voice and it either relaxes me or makes me be ultra awake and attentive.
Neat thing that I found in my Unova playthrough: There is an old lady in Driftveil City in Pokémon Black and White that talks slower that your text speed.
I've got no way to prove it or nothing to gain, but I had gotten a shiny Jirachi from the colosseum bonus disk many years back while hunting for a modest one. It died with a reset out of laziness with carrying it forward or went on with one of the cartridges being sold off on ebay, honestly I have no idea. I never thought it was a big deal. :(
The patience of some people is insane. I could never imagine shiny hunting, props to the people who have the determination to reset thousands of times for a different coloured pokemon. I wish I was that patient.
I actually remembered watching both BobLarka and Bean0's shiny Jirachi videos because I was bored during online school and was curious about whether or not anyone had gotten the shiny. I want to get it myself one day, but considering I don't have any of the necessary materials, I doubt it'll happen. At least anytime soon
Ok, fact time. The Wishmakr Jirachi came from a COLOSSEUM Bonus Disc, not XD GoD, and it was found in 2009, so hardly 15 years later, since it was first released in 2004. It was then promptly hunted. My theory is A, you did little research, and B, after the conclusion it rarely came up, since unless you were specifically doing this, the bonus disc was pretty much nonexistent, only coming back up again as recently as 2013 when Bank didn't let it pass, due to this Jirachi technically being an oversight. Now, about the oversight. The JP Bonus Disc gave Celebi. In the process of changing things over for localization, it was decided everyone else would get Jirachi instead. Two mistakes were made. For starters, they didn't re enable the Cart shiny check. In this transfer, both the disc shiny checks, then the cart shiny checks. If a Shiny is the result on either, it rerolls the PID for a different result. For the GBA Cart, that part wasn't re enabled. Second, the disc check somehow got messed up, and now read PIDs backwards. Because of this, the 9 Shiny PIDs would slip through. And finally, there AREN'T only 7, this thing has been hunted for a long time now, until Bank closes, there's assumed to be several hundred out in the wild. I personally have 9, hunted myself, which easily disproves your 7 only line.
That's crazy about the Jirachis! Though I have to say every time I hear somebody's story about finding a shiny after hundreds or even thousands of encounters I become more convinced that I could never be a shiny hunter, since I simply do not have that kind of patience. I still would like a random shiny though as I've never gotten one (the only shinies I have are from distributions, or guaranteed ones like the shiny Ponyta in Legends Arceus). In fact, I'm pretty sure one of my partners in a raid I joined a couple days ago in Sword had a shiny Latios, cause I remember thinking "I don't think Latios is teal."
I don’t know how to pull it off, but even if your text is in fast while playing BDSP, while you are in the Underground, it can slow down and Pokémon in the cave will have be fully hot pink
8:10 Always Loved Ditto, and Mew. Then I played Moon and decided to try Rowlett as I rarely pick Grass Starters for the first run. He got to level 34 and Decidueye instantly became my new favourite, after 7 Generations.
once again these videos are my fav pokemon facts, there's always so much more obscure shit that somehow hasn't been uncovered by many!! i love learning more about these games :')
I had only played White once, just finished recently; I got into gen 5 super late. And I had no idea that beating Bianca without getting hit was rare. I feel dumb not knowing that. She just kept growling at me. It's cool to know that I experienced something so uncommon.
Wow this video was an unexpected delight, I was expecting background vid to work on projects to and instead I get sucked into a story of triumph. Thank you for this sir, you've earned that sub
lol 😂 I was cheering and laughing to see Boblarka mentioned! Cheers to my bro’s hard work on getting that Jirachi! Glad to be one of the few people that saw that Jiriachi in person! Follow his TH-cam. He just worked on a video on shiny catching one of the paradox Pokémon in Scarlet.
Is the Pokeball ok? I just hope it didn't get damaged, the sound effect was brutal, but that is the magic of cinema. Yes I do like these sorts of videos BBP, thanks for the efforts and keep em up :)
8:15 I wanted to note that the Colosseum Bonus Disc actually does not recognize Pokemon Emerald; ONLY Ruby and Sapphire work, as I'm assuming they didn't plan ahead for Emerald's release. Love the video! Was very surprised that Jirachi could be Shiny. I used to transfer them to Pearl so I could trade them for anything I wanted on the GTS.
Saw your text in the video. My favorite Pokémon is Rayquaza (especially it’s shiny version). I thought it would go a bit further and mention what my favorite team of 3 starters would be: Charmander (Charizard) Treeko (Sceptile) Froakie (Greninja)
I like Eevee. It's definitely not the best Pokemon but the fact it has so many types it evolves into and the fact it's so adorable it makes me love it even more.
Just so you know I’m sure it was just a mistake but the Jirachi was not a pre order gift for XD Gale of Darkness. The Wishmaker Jirachi disk was a preorder gift for the first Pokémon Colosseum game. The only preorder gift for XD in the states that I know of was a Shadow Luigia skin for the GameCube. You can tell even more when you see that the preorder box features the protagonist of the first Colosseum game as well as both the first game and the wish maker movie releasing around the same time.
Rotom is my favorite pokemon. I liked its original design in Pokemon Diamond in Pearl, and was really excited when they announced other forms for it in Platinum.
I read the little footnote after you called Colosseum by its sequel's name and my favorite Pokémon is Darkrai. These two games are hard, especially the final bosses. But at least in Colosseum it's limited to one Shadow Pokémon per trainer, but the final boss of XD has a total of seven powerful Pokémon that are hard to catch.

im so glad shiny wishmaker actually happened, i was still under the impression it had never been found yet
I have a shiny wishmaker jirachi
@@anthonycastillo5852 legit?
Honestly same lol.
Way more than 7000 people have played XD there are probably dozens of them
I have 1 too
Dude, that shiny Jirachi segment gave off Summoning Salt vibes in the best possible way. I wouldn't mind at all if you made a documentary just covering the comprehensive history of shiny hunting in different generations. You're clearly incredibly knowledgeable on the topic, and your passion for it is contagious. Honestly, I've watched your videos before, but this is the one that got me to actually subscribe, and it's because of that final segment. Props to you for that.
i totally agree with this comment . well done #Blueboy and thank you for the priceless moment i experienced theough
your words starting (12:11). Cheers man.
Yes please cuz i didnt undesrtand it that well, please
I love that he uses some of the same background music as Summoning Salt too
I thought I was the only one getting SS vibes
I like how it went from telling obscure fact to the story telling of a legend becoming reality thanks to the effort of people
@@FreightmareFTW God also said not to judge and demean your fellow men, scammer. But here you are, defying God. 🙄
@@Montymania94 Do not judge them if you are guilty of the same thing. other than that He calls us to correct the wrongdoer and help pull everyone into a proper state of worship and repentance
I love the dialogue changes that compliment you in battling well. Like in Sun & Moon, Guzma gives you props for not using Z-moves against Lusimine. The validation!!
Here's something I thought was interesting. Everyone knows about the Odd Egg in Pokemon Crystal, and how it can randomly hatch into Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue, Smoochum, Elekid, or Magby. But what's important to note is that they all come with Dizzy Punch as a move that cannot be obtained normally.
Presumably, this move came from the parent of these Pokemon, as a way to teach the player about Egg Moves. However, it is impossible for either parents of these Pokemon to be able to pass down Dizzy Punch, because the only Pokemon that can learn Dizzy Punch in Gen 2 is Kangaskhan. Kangaskhan is a Female-Only Pokemon species, meaning that it's impossible to pass Dizzy Punch down since breeding it will only produce more Kangaskhan.
But in Gen 4, even though the Odd Egg isn't available in HGSS, there is 1 Pokemon that can be the potential male parent of every Odd-Egg Pokemon except for Cleffa and Igglybuff (due to how egg groups work), capable of learning Dizzy Punch: Lopunny
Edit: also, my favorite Pokemon is a tie between Dunsparce and Anorith.
Another thing is it’s also impossible to transfer the Odd Egg Pokémon with Dizzy Punch into Bank due to it technically being an illegal move.
So stupid lol
@@FrostGlader I discovered that when I couldn’t transfer my shiny Jynx from Crystal to Ultra Moon
@@Spagoop me with a Hitmontop.
@@Spagoop could you transfer it if you deleted the move?
@@anthonycz7581 I did that once I figured out what was wrong
Dude, what the HECK. Sonikks got a shiny wishmaker the SAME day you posted this 😭 I literally got chills hearing that part. Love this community and your videos so much.
8:10 funny story, my favorite pokemon is Makuhita, specifically because you get it really early in Colosseum and it's one of the strongest in the game. The whole process of having to open the doors to these shadow pokemon's hearts made me actually connect with them a little better than the other games I'd played as a kid had. Also they're just cute.
My favourite pokemon is Absol.
Had nothing to do with the GameCube games though, I was just an edgy teenager and I love dogs so it was a match made in heaven hahaha
Too bad it was utter trash back in Emerald because Dark moves were all special attacks lmao
Though I, too, have very fond memories of Coliseum and XD
1/10
I actually managed to see that line Cheren has about not taking damage. Thought it was pretty neat for such a detail not go unnoticed.
Thank you for including my silly Dugtrio fact in the video! I'm happy to have provided a cool piece of trivia! As far as I could tell, there weren't any other Pokemon out of the original 151 with this kind of thing in their learnset. I have not checked through the entire gen 3 Pokedex, so there might be more in there!
I was mentioned you are creating a rom hack. Could you share the name? I'd be interested in checking it out when it's completed.
If you go out of bounds in the Alola games, you can find a lot of remnants of other areas that aren't loaded. For example, I noclipped to the Hau'oli City beachfront from the Marina and it had things like trees, the white lines painted on the street, etc.
You should record it for reference
@@justchill1617 I absolutely would, but I don't have a capture card and my phone is an Android so the camera will suck recording another screen.
With the Wishmaker Jirachi there is a way to cut down the reset time with the corruption save method! That's how I hunted my Jirachi and I hope to see more shiny Jirachi in the future
Thank you for the video and putting in all the time and effort to provide proof of concept for the save corruption method! I owe u
thats what im sayin!!
thats what im sayin!!
thats what im sayin!!
Proud to say I RNG’d Shiny Jirachi a few years ago with Jefe’s help, and a Japanese Pokémon fan who created the tool that I used for part of the process
One of the hardest things I’ve done in any game, I popped off so hard I had people down my dorm hall coming to see what happened
OMG I'm actually hunting the Wishmkr Jirachi now! This gave me all the more encouragement to keep the hunt going. I did know about the slightly better Shiny odds for the Jirachi as well- I looked into this hunt a fair bit before I kicked it off. Also, my favorite Pokémon is Weezing.
How are you doing it? I don’t understand papa’s tutorial tbh.
What apps are you using and in what order should I download/set them up I mean.
Wanted to start the hunt this week but got discouraged lol.
@@pantsmonsterv6 I'm just getting the Jirachi in my copy of Sapphire off of my Colosseum Bonus Disc. If it's not Shiny, I, well, I used to restart the whole game and play up until getting the Pokédex, but I learned earlier today that you can actually corrupt the save file to make it revert to the last save so you can try for another Jirachi much quicker. Don't really know of any apps to use for this hunt.
@@IAmMissingnoMaster oh no rng manipulation?
@@pantsmonsterv6 Nah, I've never been one for that, myself.
I’m currently hunting it as well and I’d kinda lost motivation but this video definitely gave me a motivation boost especially after finding out those better odds
Phin, every intro: Did you know that ….
Me: wow I didnt know that
Phin: Oh, You did?
Me: 😢
For the one about not taking any damage vs Bianca, Cheren mentioned that you didn't lose any HP but you did lose PP. What if you were to not lose PP either, like hack in something with self destruct for Bianca and have something with Damp for yourself. Although I'm almost positive they wouldn't have added anything for it due to it being impossible in the base game, but I guess you never know
Here's something neat. A couple videos back, you had the bit about Lightning Rod increasing call frequency. But there's another ability that has a substantially more obscure out-of-battle effect. In Pokemon Emerald only, if a Pokemon with the Swarm ability leads the party, the likelihood of hearing wild Pokemon cries in the overworld also increases. Because of course it does
My favorite Pokemon is Eevee, though it's definitely been challenged by Espurr... and so long as Sprigatito's evolutions are good, there's a chance it might become a new favorite as well. I like the fluffy babies, and have a weakness for kittens...
I can't wait to see what becomes of the adorable Springatito.
Based opinions, especially the Eevee one.
Espurr is an underrated Gen 6 mon
1/10
You have great taste in pokemon! Espurr is so cute. Eevee and sprigatito are adorable too.
In Gen IV, the animations of moves like Spit Up, Strength and Facade cause the sprite of the Pokemon who used it to move 1-2 pixels in a certain direction. Apparently the effect is cumulative, but I'd love to know if it's possible to make a Pokemon's sprite move completely off the screen with this method. Maybe you could be the first to document this, Phin? 😉
Pretty sure this has been documented before and a lot
Counter prompt: move it until it overlaps with the opponents sprite
Definitely been documented before. A cool one though!
You’re the only Pokémon youtuber that I don’t skip the adverts for. Top, top content dude keep it up
I absolutely love these videos! There are about a million Pokemon fact videos on TH-cam, but yours always feel unique. They’re very in-depth and well researched, but more importantly they have their own sense of style and tone! I am always impressed by the way you end each video with some kind of question, mystery, cliffhanger etc. that makes the viewer hooked for the next one. That’s a freaking genius way to string your videos together, and I can say that it totally works!
I didn’t realize the wishmaker Jirachi could come with different natures. 😂
I tried with several save files as a kid and I kid you not - every single one of them had a Serious nature. I had about a dozen of them before I gave up. I didn’t even think about shiny hunting it. I just wanted one that wasn’t serious. 😂
Mine was also Serious
Why so Serious 🤡
@@doopness785 seriously? 😛
That's either some seriously (sorry for the pun) bad luck, or you were using a Serious Pokemon with Synchronize as first member of your party and not aware of it.
@@rufusconnolly8489 probably just the bad luck lol. My first Pokémon in my party was almost always Blaziken back then so no chance in someone with Synchronize messing with natures.
I kind of wish my GameCube was still working so I could grab a few more Jirachi and see if I get any other natures. 😂
The red shard thing would be caused by the shards incorrectly sharing an ID. This also happens in Banjo-Kazooie regarding the mumbo tokens. There are two tokens that share an ID, and when one is collected, the other is no longer collectable.
a video going over your entire shiny hunting journey would be so cool!!
This series is so cool, I've been paying pokemon ever since I was 7 and I'm 22 now and I still play it consistently, and I just think it's amazing that we can find out these little hidden secrets in games that have been out for decades
Hey phin! Another cool idea could be the shiny johto starters you can hunt in pokemon xd gale of darkness. A lot of people were skeptical about it actually being able to be shiny but I just got one and speedtwister96 also got one. As far as I know we are the only people to ever get a shiny johto starter in pokemon xd. You are welcome to use my video if you want to use that as a fact!
To add to this, the johto starters also get the elemental hyper beam moves which is the only way to get those moves on a first evolution starter and they also know their egg move!
Wait, that is possible?!
I just trained my Typhlosion on Firered, bragging that it knows Reversal and Blast Burn, but apparently there is a more rare version of this beast :O
Thanks for sharing :)
tons of people have gotten them through RNG abuse. if it's possible through RNG abuse then it's definitely possible to do it through normal methods
These videos make My day it's always nice to see how even something I thought I knew so well can continue to surprise me, that's why I still am into this series all these years later
Altaria is my favourite Pokémon, hopefully with a regional variant in gen 9 (swablu was the main focus on one of the images and altaria seems to fit a Spanish setting)
The ending of this video was phenomenal. I'm skeptical when I see videos like this recommended to me, but ever since the first one of yours I saw a couple months ago I was so happy it just wasn't part of the youtube cesspool and that it was actually good. Keep it up!
My favorite pokemon is Metagross. I was always so sad that I could never get a Beldum early game in most games, but I finally bred the perfect one in Sword and transferred it to Home, then back into a new game and used it as my starter and it was fantastic.
I mean I think the only games that let you have a pseudo legendary relatively early in the game are Gen 1 games, and even then you need quite a bit of money in order to get Dratini from the game corner, otherwise you have to wait until you get to the safari zone.
The Rom hack Pokémon Unbound has psuedo legendaries as its starters, one of them being Beldum. They also let you mega evolve it relatively early, which is nice
The shiny Jirachi started appearing more frequently due to the morphogenetic field 🙃
Also my favourite Pokemon is Altaria. It's half of the inspiration for my name....which I came up with 11 years ago as a kid
Altaria is my favorite too :)
Hey, I'm loving this content, I'm beyond impressed that of this whole series, at least 95% of the info is new to me, even from being a regular consumer and searcher of Pokemon trivia since the 00's. Your content and editing are both underrated and deserve all the more love! Plus it was wild seeing that Deoxys Gamestop flyer in your earlier video--I still have that very one stored among my Pokemon books, and had no idea why I saved the thing!
If I can be so bold--I was hoping someday to get into both video editing and streaming, to make some similar styled content on different topics; would you by chance have recommendations for editing software, streaming and capture hardware/software, etc?
I've never streamed a game before, let alone a handheld or console, and my editing software has always been subpar freeware.
Thanks and keep up the great work!
I use davinchi resolve to edit! It’s free and great, I have a few capture card DS’s but to be honest emulators much more convenient for recording! Thanks for enjoying! Best of luck!
@@BlueBoyPhin Awesome man, thanks a bunch, I greatly appreciate it! I'll have to take some detours down the rabbitholes of game video capture and streaming software, and this is a great start!
You've more than earned my sub, and I've passed this specific playlist off to some friends that I know would equally appreciate this content!
In all my years playing pokemon I actually NEVER knew that weedle couldn't learn normal moves lol so right at the beginning of your video you hit me with some "fun facts"😅
I love these videos so much and the fact that they cover such obscure things in my favourite series just makes me binge all of them again once a new one comes out. Love the content and please continue teaching us all the weird things gamefreak has hidden from us
The level of inspiration and optimism that seeps from your words as you wrap up your videos is unreal. Job well done. I thoroughly enjoy watching your content, keep up the amazing work!
This series is still so absolutely amazing to me, and I enjoy learning even more things about my absolute obsession!
It would be really cool if you covered obscure pokemon glitches! (hopefully ones that aren't just in Gen 1, even though, yes, I know, gen 1 is spaghetti code. I just would really like to see some obscure pokemon glitches ranging in the many games about the time!)
Maybe even cover things like the obscure pokemon titles! (Like Pokemon Ranger, Pokemon Colusseum, Pokemon Conquest, Pokemon.. Cafe Mix?) Lmao- I think there might actually be hidden details that we still haven't seen yet in these obscure titles :3
Funnily enough, I've had quite a few in Pokémon Café ReMix!
It's mostly been Pokémon models not showing up when selected. I still have a constant issue where, if I select Mewtwo or Dialga for a puzzle, they don't show up next to the customer Pokémon at all.
I love your obscure vids. Been binge watching since yesterday, rewatching some of the videos. I really enjoy this series.
The sign isn't the only duplicate thing in Kanto! There's an invisible PC in one of the extra buildings in Saffron City.
Hus claim that the sign was only discovered in 2014 is off by a long shot. There are and have been map editors for Pokemon since at least the early 2000's (possibly earlier). I used to play around with them when I was a kid and had noticed that sign. You could see everything in there.
Yo, I'm in this video! I'm the dude that found the shared script ID on the red shards in platinum. (pailmer6 actually doesn't exist)
The two hidden items activating the same script basically means that the other one disappears if you pick one of them up.
Funny enough, this error also exists in Diamond Pearl. It just isn't a red shard.
It probably also exists in BDSP, but I don't have the game, so I can't check that myself.
i'm pretty sure pailmer6 exists somewhere
Jirachi is my favorite pokémon, so it's always amazing to hear facts about it let alone facts I've never heard. Thanks for making this video, it's really interesting
Bro that ending was beautiful. I'm always grateful for the communities I'm in.
Great video! Loved seeing Chikasaurus get the recognition she's due with all the amazing ways shes able to pick apart these games. Cant wait to see more!
Phin ur content never fails to amaze me. You have a way of storytelling that is like no other. You give me Nick Robinson vibes.
Really enjoying this series and learning increasingly obscure Pokémon facts. Keep it up man!
bro im so glad im watching all ur vids. 4:06 i just replayed platinum and was shard hunting for moves. i watched 2 videos on where to find red shards and each video showed both those spots but when i collected the 2nd one nothing was there. i was sure i was just high but now this makes so much SENSE.
Favorite Pokémon is Articuno. So magical and as a child I wanted to befriend it lol
Another strange overworld item phenomenon happens in Platinum: There is a honey you can pick up in both the Old Chateau and the Lost Tower. For some reason, both of them actually counts as 3 Honeys
As a 34 year old man that has played Pokémon since day one I highly appreciated your video, anything to do with the franchise especially obscure facts just gets my rocks off, great video and I've also subbed to your channel, looking forward to more great content✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Hey! I found one interesting fact in R/B I haven't really heard mentioned before and thought I'd tell you. Even if you have battle effects turned off, the game still does them against your rival in the champion battle. I have been playing through Red and found it super weird when I suddenly saw the effect for Confuse Ray for the first time lol
My favorite Pokémon is female Pyroar (in my pfp), but a close second is Lugia - and I don't thiiink you've covered it's weird origin story. It's not all that in the games themselves, but it's weird and very cool! I'm currently writing an essay on it and I suppose I'm just curious if you're interested. There's a really neat video on it already, though.
That's very well known
@@batu2847
Admittedly, given that I could only find one video on it (and a reaction video to that), I assumed it wasn't all that widespread 😅
You've become my favorite Pokemon content creator, thank you for taking the time to make and provide the entertainment!
Would you be willing to take suggestions for other types of videos like this? I'd like to see someone on YT make a video on the strongest to weakest stat pokemon (or something to that affect) in any or every pokemon game.
Obscure fact: there's a name filter that prevents players from naming pokemon naughty things. It was so strict that back in gen 5 you can't even trade a Cofagrigus unless you gave it a nickname (despite pokemon naming it that in the first place) because it had a bad word in it. This was fixed a generation later.
Wow, this was a great video!!! I really thought there wasn't much I didn't know, and you proved me wrong! And what a heartwarming story about Jirachi. (Also loved the pause screen, gotta say my favorite has to be Pikachu, go figure, but it was my first and has remained as such) so thanks for making my day! And I can't wait to check out your other videos!!! 😎🎶
Always a good day when the legend uploads. Congrats again on 100k my man
My favourite Pokemon is Arcanine. Ever since Gen 1. It has never changed, though I will say the Duskull line (more Dusknoir than the other two) is a pretty close second. Not sure why since they're pretty wildly different, but the heart wants what the heart wants I suppose lmao.
Keep up the good work! I went through most of your videos pretty recently and enjoy them very much! I'm one voice among many (or one comment I suppose), but I definitely hope that seeing any amount of random people from around the world praising your content brightens your day! 🤘🏻 Keep on rockin'!
Man this has got to be one of my favorite pokemon videos to date, the last on jirachi was incredible. Thank you
Always nice to see when you drop an obscure fact video!
Love these vids, keep up the good work!
An interesting tidbit that I don't think everyone is aware of, is that many moves have changed their animation mid generation. In G1 and G2 it was only for localization (G1 toned down flashes in moves like Hyper Beam or Thunderbolt... ironically though, some were made WORSE, like those in Confusion and Hypnosis - before being toned down properly in Yellow. G2 has different animation for SonicBoom, for whatever reason), G3 has nothing as far as I know, but I could be wrong. But then G4 started doing things, like how Spacial Rend looks different in Diamond and Pearl, or how Thunder looks different in HeartGold and SoulSilver. This would then happen again in G5 with some moves like Aeroblast, Overheat, Shadow Claw, or Night Daze having different animation in Black 2 and White 2, and even again in G6, though it's harder to tell because this is the 3D era now. I know in ORAS, at least two moves were changed - Fire Blast (it now resembles the 大 more) and Thunder (the electric effects are noticeably different; you can easily tell by checking Mixeli's video from 2018 about this move). Some changes are easier to tell, some you wouldn't be able to tell unless you saw the different animations back to back.
This technically also happens in G7, but Let's Go games are on Switch while Alola games are on 3DS, so I don't really think it's that notable.
Anyway, my favorite Pokemon is Bellossom.
8:09 I like Leafeon a lot! I've been using one for the first time in Legends Arceus and it's really fun, and definetly deserves more attention like other eeveelutions
I actually have seen the Bianca battle fact. The attention to detail in Gen 5 was great.
Fave pokemon is Celebi btw lol
I encountered something that I think only I've experienced so maybe you or the community can answer this 19-year long mystery for me. Story time!
So, the first main series pokemon game I beat was Ruby/Sapphire. My older brother bought Sapphire for me and Ruby for himself the day the game released (only mentioning in case having a Day 1 cartridge is relevant). Anyways, this is where I encountered by first shiny, which was Wingull. I was excited and thought it was a glitch at first, but I caught it anyways, and had my own Wingull with red stripes instead of blue. I was nervous to evolve it into Peliper, but sure enough, the red markings stayed, and I had a shiny Peliper. Neat!
Fast forward to high school about 10 years later. Some friends and I were talking about our first shiny encounters, and I mentioned the Wingull. I mentioned that I like how the red looked, even though Wingull isn't the most exciting pokemon. My friend looked at me like I was stupid, and told me something.
Shiny wingull doesn't have red stripes. They're supposed to be green.
I told him he was wrong, and looked it up when I got home. Literally speechless. It was green. Same with Peliper. I did the logical thing and took a colorblindness test because I know CB people can mix up those colors, but my eyes worked fine. I tried to think back HARD, and I know it was red even to this day. Red and green are opposite on the color wheel, so there's no way I could confuse it for a color so opposite. I've tried googling this, and NOTHING comes up. My running theory is that some shinies may have been different when the game first released, but nothing I've researched has supported this. If anyone asks where the cartridge is now, in probably one of the top 3 worst decisions in my life, I traded it into a GameStop to put money towards a Nintendo DS. Bad move, lost my favorite childhood cartridge, and the mystery with it, and what's worse is that my sister broke my DS a year later lol.
Anyways, assuming my 8 year old eyes didn't mistake the colors on ONE pokemon in the entire game and I actually saw what I saw, I would love to see this mystery tackled. It's such a minute mystery about a minute pokemon, so I'm curious to see if this will every get an explanation. Thanks!
I can't find anything on it either I'm afraid..Maybe you got some rare cartridge that had a few differences?
Very interesting i feel like somebody will discover this truth somehow someday somewhere id say ima remember this if it does indeed show up in a future video somewhere
4:19: Love the underwater DKC music you are playing here. That gave me a nostalgic trip.
Hey phin, stumbled accross your channel yesterday and im currently watching through your backlog now, I really appreciated your secret pause text and my favorite pokemon are totodile and luxray
The red shard one feels like a quantum superposition reference of sorts.
So, Phin, thanks for the great content. I really hope that you will see this comment, because you made me enjoy Pokemon again. Thanks for the incredible videos and I hope that your channel will keep growing, cuz ya deserve it, mate.
Also, Grovyle, no matter that I usually start Gen 3 with Mudkip.
One love ❤️
This series is so great that I've seen people ripping it off lately. GGs, you're a pioneer
Ok so i began watching your channel when i was looking for stuff to sleep on... And now i use this to sleep and to entertain myself too. I love your voice and it either relaxes me or makes me be ultra awake and attentive.
Yo love your vids
thanks Corey!
Just wanted to say great vids and awesome music choices. 3rd strike, Gran Turismo, bomberman, and even the dope gta3 opening. Solid
Neat thing that I found in my Unova playthrough: There is an old lady in Driftveil City in Pokémon Black and White that talks slower that your text speed.
I've got no way to prove it or nothing to gain, but I had gotten a shiny Jirachi from the colosseum bonus disk many years back while hunting for a modest one. It died with a reset out of laziness with carrying it forward or went on with one of the cartridges being sold off on ebay, honestly I have no idea. I never thought it was a big deal. :(
It's really not as big a deal as he makes it out to be. He didn't research this well.
The patience of some people is insane. I could never imagine shiny hunting, props to the people who have the determination to reset thousands of times for a different coloured pokemon. I wish I was that patient.
I actually remembered watching both BobLarka and Bean0's shiny Jirachi videos because I was bored during online school and was curious about whether or not anyone had gotten the shiny. I want to get it myself one day, but considering I don't have any of the necessary materials, I doubt it'll happen. At least anytime soon
That end speech almost squeezed a tear out of me. Deserved sub. Great video
Ok, fact time. The Wishmakr Jirachi came from a COLOSSEUM Bonus Disc, not XD GoD, and it was found in 2009, so hardly 15 years later, since it was first released in 2004. It was then promptly hunted. My theory is A, you did little research, and B, after the conclusion it rarely came up, since unless you were specifically doing this, the bonus disc was pretty much nonexistent, only coming back up again as recently as 2013 when Bank didn't let it pass, due to this Jirachi technically being an oversight.
Now, about the oversight. The JP Bonus Disc gave Celebi. In the process of changing things over for localization, it was decided everyone else would get Jirachi instead. Two mistakes were made. For starters, they didn't re enable the Cart shiny check. In this transfer, both the disc shiny checks, then the cart shiny checks. If a Shiny is the result on either, it rerolls the PID for a different result. For the GBA Cart, that part wasn't re enabled. Second, the disc check somehow got messed up, and now read PIDs backwards. Because of this, the 9 Shiny PIDs would slip through.
And finally, there AREN'T only 7, this thing has been hunted for a long time now, until Bank closes, there's assumed to be several hundred out in the wild. I personally have 9, hunted myself, which easily disproves your 7 only line.
No other comment, I just want to mention that the Colosseum/XD thing corrected in the actual editing (visuals) of the video.
@@ciphermitarai Yes, I'm aware. I saw it. He still said XD though, which confuses it.
That's crazy about the Jirachis! Though I have to say every time I hear somebody's story about finding a shiny after hundreds or even thousands of encounters I become more convinced that I could never be a shiny hunter, since I simply do not have that kind of patience. I still would like a random shiny though as I've never gotten one (the only shinies I have are from distributions, or guaranteed ones like the shiny Ponyta in Legends Arceus). In fact, I'm pretty sure one of my partners in a raid I joined a couple days ago in Sword had a shiny Latios, cause I remember thinking "I don't think Latios is teal."
I don’t know how to pull it off, but even if your text is in fast while playing BDSP, while you are in the Underground, it can slow down and Pokémon in the cave will have be fully hot pink
8:10 Always Loved Ditto, and Mew. Then I played Moon and decided to try Rowlett as I rarely pick Grass Starters for the first run.
He got to level 34 and Decidueye instantly became my new favourite, after 7 Generations.
once again these videos are my fav pokemon facts, there's always so much more obscure shit that somehow hasn't been uncovered by many!! i love learning more about these games :')
the part about shiny wishmaker Jirachi is so sweet!
I had only played White once, just finished recently; I got into gen 5 super late.
And I had no idea that beating Bianca without getting hit was rare. I feel dumb not knowing that. She just kept growling at me. It's cool to know that I experienced something so uncommon.
I love the way you describe these things, the Jirachi thing was so interesting.
Wow this video was an unexpected delight, I was expecting background vid to work on projects to and instead I get sucked into a story of triumph. Thank you for this sir, you've earned that sub
1940: In 2022, we're gonna have flying cars.
2022: OHMYGOD SHINY WISHMAKER JIRACHI GUYS
Ohh wow the Jirachi shiny hunt is SO cool! I had no idea these discoveries went on.
lol 😂 I was cheering and laughing to see Boblarka mentioned! Cheers to my bro’s hard work on getting that Jirachi! Glad to be one of the few people that saw that Jiriachi in person! Follow his TH-cam. He just worked on a video on shiny catching one of the paradox Pokémon in Scarlet.
9:46 10:54 11:11 the sheer volume everyone screams and loses their absolute marbles in reaction is so funny to me 😭
I have watched all of these and have only known about one (maybe two) of these. Well done.
Is the Pokeball ok? I just hope it didn't get damaged, the sound effect was brutal, but that is the magic of cinema. Yes I do like these sorts of videos BBP, thanks for the efforts and keep em up :)
8:15 I wanted to note that the Colosseum Bonus Disc actually does not recognize Pokemon Emerald; ONLY Ruby and Sapphire work, as I'm assuming they didn't plan ahead for Emerald's release.
Love the video! Was very surprised that Jirachi could be Shiny. I used to transfer them to Pearl so I could trade them for anything I wanted on the GTS.
Dude, I love the Shiny Jirachi part of this video. Maddd Summoning Salt vibes
Saw your text in the video. My favorite Pokémon is Rayquaza (especially it’s shiny version).
I thought it would go a bit further and mention what my favorite team of 3 starters would be:
Charmander (Charizard)

I like Eevee. It's definitely not the best Pokemon but the fact it has so many types it evolves into and the fact it's so adorable it makes me love it even more.
Just so you know I’m sure it was just a mistake but the Jirachi was not a pre order gift for XD Gale of Darkness. The Wishmaker Jirachi disk was a preorder gift for the first Pokémon Colosseum game. The only preorder gift for XD in the states that I know of was a Shadow Luigia skin for the GameCube. You can tell even more when you see that the preorder box features the protagonist of the first Colosseum game as well as both the first game and the wish maker movie releasing around the same time.
Rotom is my favorite pokemon. I liked its original design in Pokemon Diamond in Pearl, and was really excited when they announced other forms for it in Platinum.
I read the little footnote after you called Colosseum by its sequel's name and my favorite Pokémon is Darkrai.
These two games are hard, especially the final bosses.
But at least in Colosseum it's limited to one Shadow Pokémon per trainer, but the final boss of XD has a total of seven powerful Pokémon that are hard to catch.
