676 - I kept these Shiny Pokémon secret for 10 years (a shiny hunting time capsule)

- Here's something that's sort of like a badge quest in SoulSilver Version that I did back in 2014 LOL
start with a starter??? huh? Does he mean first partner pokemon?
Man. The Black Eyed Peas, Skype calls, Smash for Wii U, calling birds “Birbs”…What a beautiful time capsule of the mid 2010s
He mentioned as Mario kart 8 the new Mario kart, little did we know at the time that 10 years later we’re all still playing Mario kart 8 (admittedly with a lot of new content)
@@variumi MK8’s graphics are so good I often kinda forget it’s nearly a decade old lol.
Matt lore goes deep, but I think “Buttcrack Peter Griffin” is the gatekeeper of the deepest depths yet.
Missed opportunity to name the meowth that
right!? XD I was thinking the same thing lol
I don't know how to explain it, but 2014 Matt sounds like 2024 Matt with a ds sound font.
Absol in 2034 using 23:40 - 23:47 as an intro is gonna go so hard.
10:37 the fact that mario kart 8 is technically still "the new one" 10 years later
This is an absolute gem. Wish I’d done something like this back then just to look back at how I used to shiny hunt but this really encapsulates old school shiny hunting!
“Might watch all of Total Drama Island” is a goated line 1:35
Genuinely such a wholesome and cool video to watch!! Loved almost all of it, except for the shiny Weedle not appearing with the Kill La Kill fight scene audio... man that would've went so hard...
I'm a few mins in but that intro made me so nostalgic. The era of the internet where most of us were just clueless and recording cool shit with our shaky cams is something that will never be replicated ever again and I will remember so fondly.
The real shinies were the friends we made along the way
I think we need more videos like that - just sharing cool things we've done or found without any care for views, sponsorships, clickbait, etc.
The time when that was the norm was peak TH-cam in my eyes.
NO WAY- A 2014 shiny hunting time capsule and released in 2024?
the iconic Pokemon Heartgold soul silver badge quest in the making for 10 years
there is something about this early era of shiny hunting videos that is so incredibly nostalgic.
amazing vid dude!!
no one guesses Lax
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon OUT HERE BEING THE LAX GUY BEFORE IT WAS COOL! (It still isn’t cool)
@@BlueVacktor he’s just that guy
2014 matt jumpscare
the spirit of flame wolfo got passed down to tepig armadillo
The way you capture not just game footage but your life that is happening when you're playing the games is what I love about your vids
Did anyone else hear a young Calzone at 10:06?
pre-time skip Calzone
i think it’s crazy how how different matt looked in 2014, he still sounds literally the exact same lol
2014 matt: average high school movie bully
2024 matt: carefree, living in the forest alone type beat
I miss the old era of TH-cam when more people had their own styles and types of content. Not that there isn’t anymore but it has become more one note since the algorithm only seems to pick up on certain things. This is one of the only channels I follow that hasn’t been extremely changed with the times which is why I enjoy it so much. ❤️
I wasn’t expecting to see myself as a cameo in this lol
That intro was so nostalgic, the “shiny hunting update video” with JolteonJordan’s intro/sonic colors song was absolutely hilarious
Great video as always Matt
THE SEEL SECRETS REVEALED! I've always wondered what that secret hunt was
That time jump to the past was 10000% accurate.
ah, pre quarantine regular haircuts absol, what a pure time it was
Nothing like a surprise, late night absolblogs video
Only a minute in but gosh I miss abenzio's videos. They always had such an adorable and excited feeling. I remember one reaction video where he had found a shiny while on a car ride and he had his grandmother talk about how much he loved shinies and she sounded so happy for him. When I think about how I used to show my pokemon to my mom I think about that vid too!
YESSSS THE SHINX VIDEO
"that Sphinx is yellow!!!"
@@AbsolBlogsPokemonHAHAHA HOW DID I FORGET IT WAS SHINX 😭😭😭
Anyway, so glad you decided to post this in the end. Glad to have been watching for all these years and wish you another 10 years that are just as shiny!
My jaw dropped to the floor after that intro, the rush of nostalgia from young Matt and the old video style. The first video that I viewed on your channel was the level 100 gauntlet of phampy. Your videos have the amazing blend of storytelling, amazing editing and passion that makes watching your videos a treat. It was clear to see back then, and you have only improved over time. Thank you for the endless hours of quality content and enjoyment that you have provided to my youtube viewing experience. Wishing you all the best for the next ten years and beyond!
this is EXACTLY why i got into shiny hunting - the community. yours, sonikks, thesupremerk9s and shinycollector's videos were something my brother and i would constantly binge back in the day. it inspired my brother to challenge me to a shiny badge quest race and each day we'd update each other on how the hunts were going. eventually he face timed me like 2 weeks later with a shiny chikorita on his screen!! it 100% warped my reality, because shinies (to me at the time) were something to find randomly, and i was WAY too scared to start a shiny hunt LOL, but i started and after a little while found a shiny totodile on my lunch break at work on May 12th, 2018! even though i found shinies when i was younger, i never thought i'd start hunting them as much as i do today. thanks for the crazy nostalgia trip and the shiny addiction! also you really should play the new mario kart 8, its awesome!!!!
This is such a genuine time capsule. The older footage combined with the current narration brings a really genuine vibe to all this, and a video like this really highlights what I think is the specialty of this channel. It's hard to describe the exact feeling, but it's great.
But in all seriousness... when's the indigo disk movie coming out?
(the more that people asked the ask, the more you shouldve waited. Imagine dlc part 2 of SV dlc video coming out after 10 years)
For me, the easyness of shinies in gen 9 is what got me to start shiny hunting, and now ive snowballed into doing a few full odds hunts. I did a fossil hunt on lets go (784 with it ending up as Kabuto) and im currently doing a badge quest on Sword, looking for my first member on route 2. Shiny hunting has changed me in some ways, and i dont regret a thing about it
I am also horribly sad Abenzios channel is lost media now. I hope hes doing okay, i heard when he deleted the channel he was going through a pretty rough time, so i hope hes okay now
Also bruh how do you keep a secret for this long 😭
Heya I’m someone who is personally interested in lost media especially Pokémon so if you can could you tell me what you remember about Abenzios?
@@mulitpower8827 I honestly don't remember much about his channel, more so why he deleted it and rumors surrounding that. I heard that the video got around his school and he was being bullied because of it.
@@Dahcs I see hope he is doing okay now though, thanks for sharing what you could
I got into shiny hunting around 2015-2016, so just a little bit after you, but the early days of shiny hunting is something I will cherish forever, watching people hold their phones up to their ds’s, hearing whatever show they were watching on in the background. I always liked to guess when the shiny would show up for the person since everyone put a couple of encounters before the shiny showed up (still do it to this day). Sometimes I miss it, cause now, when I look up “shiny gastly” I get scarvio videos when I wanna see some sprout tower hunting! Also the shinytwins nature guess is such a throwback, I hope they’re both doing well
0:20 look ma i'm on the telly
I got Mike Wazowski’d! (Was the Baja Blast guy.)
Watching all this legacy footage of the past is so nostalgic. All the bits of gameplay out on a walk with the sun glaring on your DS, the White 2 random team challenge making a small appearance really makes me appreciate all the effort and hard work you've done to grow your channel over the decade.
Me: Pfft, Matt will never be 2014.
2014 Matt: *Appears*
Me: *spits out cereal*
IDK WHY I THOUGHT HE WAS LYING ABOUT THIS TBH, I THOUGHT IT WAS A JOKE BUT THEN THE MOMENT I SEE 2014 MATT I WENT “oh.”
i've been attempting my own SoulSilver shiny-only challenge recently, since I've never attempted a 1/8192 hunt before! so this time capsule coming out during my hunt specifically is crazy
Great video, as always!
I'm doing one on heartgold! Do you have any shinies yet?
21:40 PMD REFERENCE WOO!
Also I just want to say this is like the perfect 10 year channel anniversary video, gratz!
What a blast from the past! Really makes me nostalgic for the early years of shiny hunting back when I was a Radar fiend.
It's kinda hilarious that you did a Johto badge quest and only found one Johtonian Mon 😂
Matt absol, the adventure blog portions of your videos really elevate your content to another level. Youre easily my favorite shiny hunter if not poketuber as a whole. The level of effort you put in to everything is amazing. So happy to have found your channel after one of the sword or shield movies
Gosh, old shiny hunting TH-cam content is so nostalgic for me. The Sonic Colors music really took me back. Such a cool video man, GGs!
Kinda crazy to think how much time has passed, I have probably watched around 400 of your videos, its been a quick 11-12 years, miss those days, thanks for being one of the channels to get me into shiny hunting
Absol this video is really good, it seems like a logistical nightmare to somehow make all of that old footage work in a video like this. I think it highlights why I like your videos so much, they really capture the charm of the old internet and TH-cam, but only the positives. Improving on the formula; your presentation and pacing is really good and makes this video feel nostalgic even for someone who didn't really watch this stuff as a kid. Great work!!
Two videos in 3 days. My life is complete 😂😂
This is such a blast from the past! Seeing all those old clips of you that have survived for 10 years is so amazing, must've been very trippy to see it all again! A very late congratulations on all of your great shinies (especially Gyarados, 1st encounter unbelievable)! Oh, and...... BASEBALL!
your videos usually have a nostalgic vibe to me, but this one really hits that note!! i didn't have many friends into pokemon as a kid (and none middle school and older) but the joy of just having fun while sharing the game with others feels so comforting to me. finding you last year is what finally got me into shiny hunting, i was fascinated by them as a kid, but didn't have any idea how to go about it and between you, shiny cathrine, and scarlet/violet's ease of hunting where i can just run around and encounter visually while watching you guys and othet poketubers has me hooked now as an adult. i love going back and rewatching your gameplay movies while i hunt, it's always so fun! getting to see this time capsule turned video was awesome, matt!
0:22 hold the phone, how is this man just casually being able to shiny hunt on the field of the ROSE BOWL?!?!
People were able to play in and around the Rose Bowl for the Pokémon GO Tour:Sinnoh event back in February
3:17 damn, you got that shiny on my 10th birthday! Made me feel super young despite turning 20.
Happy early birthday! And I guess happy belated birthday too?
Such a cool video, bro. It’s so great seeing so much old footage. I remember that grilling session in the backyard vividly, and I cannot believe you have footage of BCPG!!
buttcrack peter griffin followed by "you should go gamble!" is why your content will never be topped. amazing video as always!
Man, I love your content so much. It honestly brings me so much peace!! Thanks for all your videos :D
this video brought so much nostalgia, you were one of the reasons why i started shiny hunting again during this era and to see all this just brought me so many memories. Thank you Matt.
i love the old shiny hunting videos, theres something so simple to a low quality camera, the background sound of the TV, and the sounds of the DS is so nostalgic. i often rewatch shinytwins old old shiny videos and hearing you mention willow in the cyndaquil brought a smile to my face :)
Love this video. The nostalgic young Matt's shiny hunting footage and the experienced editing from now make a great video. It also brings back pleasant memories from finding the first shinies in pokemon Gold as a kid. 100 times more exciting than using sandwiches and mass outbreaks. Shiny beedrill looks amazing in this game btw
What a cool idea, brings back memories. ISHC, shiny hunting updates, DS screen face reveals lol
Great video :)
it's crazy from when I was much younger (and had access to the internet earlier than i sould have lol) that I across many youtube accounts, have continued to shiny hunt to your videos all these years.
I love how revolutionary the run toggle felt at the time. Simpler times.
It always breaks my heart people will never get to experience all of Abenzio's hunts. He's the reason I got into shiny hunting and its so sad his channels gone :(
this really takes me back. what a nostalgia trip! your channel continues and always will be the gift that keeps on giving.
5:15 baseball
*assorted fart noises*
I remember hearing about this BQ on Skype 8ish years ago 😂😂 seeing this uploaded on my home page had all the memories come back!
I was not involved in Pokémon or shiny hunting during the nostalgia era you’re talking about, and it’s so fun to experience it through this time capsule! I’m even feeling inspired to do my own HGSS shiny badge quest. The more things change, the more they stay the same
LES GO 2 VIDS IN 1 WEEK
What a pleasant treat for a long day of work. Thank you Matt (Absol).
Very nostalgic lol, I used to shiny hunt constantly between like, 2008-2016ish, back in 2008 I loved talking with other shiny hunters on TH-cam (back when you could actually send and receive private messages lol). This takes me back. Great vid
Mans managed to keep it secret for so long. I would've posted it two years later Lol!
I loved this video! Such a cool blast from the past. I do truly miss the shiny hunting days of 10 years ago, everything was so different. Also I love how the Matt southern accent was so much more prevalant back in 2014 compared to now, it's always wild looking back on ourselves from a decade ago! Great time capsule
this is so cool!!! i absolutely love the way past, present, and future Matt shape this channel and really push the boundaries of what content can be. Dude. 10/10 this is such a cool project.
Z33 was a good friend of mine back in ‘08! We actually had a shiny race for shiny hoothoot that he won… I still haven’t caught it yet, but I intend to do it one day and make a video.
Such a good video, Absol! 😭❤️
That's SO awesome!!!!!!! Z33 was someone who I never personally interacted with but was heavily inspired by when I first started chaining - always looked up to him as a legend
Matt all of your videos fill me with so much joy. Your unique experiences with Pokemon legitimately bring a tear to my eye. Thank you for posting this!
This brings me back dude! Skype and eveything, also I cant belive you actually didnt post it earlier, wouldnt be able to wait that long myself. Great video man!
What a cool throw back! Brings me back to the days of going to the park and doing IRL hunts with you
Your videos never cease to make me feel like a kid playing away on my ds again. Thank you for what you do
I loved this. What a wholesome retelling. We had similar stories but in different sandboxes, this was awesome
Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you could relate to it so much too! There's just something so magical about niche internet communities and how the members of them shared their achievements within them in the 2010s.
Also shoutout to SimpleFlips
Man this was such a nostalgia trip! Abenzio, Total Drama Island, SSB4 and Mario Kart 8...geez man, really got me in my feels with this one lol. I had done a few Shiny hunts a few years before 2014, but that era was when I REALLY got into Shiny hunting, and found a lot of those early shaky-cam Shiny videos for the first time. Fantastic video!!
It would have been so funny if your reaction to the shiny weedle was just audio from an episode of Kill la Kill. Great video man! Hope you're still doing this another 10 years from now
This was a super cool video to see Matt! I was about 10 years old when you first started filming this, and I wouldn’t have regular internet access until a few more years from then, so this is definitely an era of shiny hunting I missed out on, and am a little envious of. Even if a lot has changed since then, I feel like you still encapsulate a lot of that same energy from the ol’ 8192 days, you’re always coming up with new ways to keep the Pokémon experience fresh. I think the first video of yours I saw was the shiny Xerneas video? (Which was 6 years ago sheeesh) and I have been consistently inspired by how much fun you have playing these games, and how well you communicate that to us! H, ☂️!
P.S. I was the guy that declared Bellsprout war on the Oddish army if you remember, was hoping you could pass on to Cal that I like Bellibolt now and we’re chill
This might be one of the most nostalgia inducing videos I've seen in a long time with that intro. This is such an amazing and cool idea! Love this so much
Always love your videos. This was so cool to see, glad you kept the footage so long!
Seeing 2014 Matt in the flesh made me so happy :) I've watched your content for a loong time Absol, and I really enjoyed this time capsule. Thank you for dedicating your time and energy into this community. We love you Matt!
Aw man, HGSS shiny badge quests are the most fun ones to watch imo. Eventually ended up doing one myself on Heart Gold a few years back and had a blast. Totodile, Mareep, Spearow, Hoothoot, Ekans, Geodude, Gloom, and Swinub for the main badges, and SR'd for Ho-Oh before the Elite 4 for fun too. This video was a nostalgic blast, love it.
Dude this makes me feel so nostalgic, thank you for posting this honestly it was a treat
I never really put it together till now but I think the old TH-cam charm your vids have is why I love them so much
this made me tear up! It's crazy to think how much the shiny hunting community has actually changed and how this video sparked that nostalgic feeling from the early days in me. PLEASE do Kanto!! 2014 Matt would be so surprised to see 16 badges on this amazing file.
Such a feelgood nostalgic vid. That beginning was awesome
And this entire hunt/vid was amazing
I remember this Matt! It was at the apex of my Pokémon career, most active times! Belly drum azumaril was sweeping singles, and fairy’s became my favorite type at the time! Oh and chain fishing! 😅 Thank you for this nostalgic video!
I absolutely love this video! Just today, I was reminiscing of 2014, coming back from school and watching Shadypenguin's Smogon matches in the Summer.
This was a truly perfect time ☀️
absol really got future videos planned all the way back to ten years 😭😭😭😭 one of the best poketubers
This video hits different considering im doing a Prof Oak challenge
pointing my phone camera at my 3DS.
I feel so behind lol.
What a great, nostalgic video. Glad you decided to unleash this one on us as a surprise!
Absol you’ll probably never see this but you’re one of my favorite TH-camrs. The memories you make and the life you lead is such a beautifully fulfilling one, I wish you nothing but love and good vibes, you deserve nothing but the best brother
Another gem! This is such an original and unique idea. You've got a great mind for ideas for videos and a great eye for editing the hunting with the slice of life aspects. Love your videos! Also, this is going to age like fine wine.
Hi 2014 Matt! Its nice to see you again!
jeez, this really is a time capsule. from the jokes to the clothes to the music to the memes.
great vid, thanks for posting. definitely worth it
2014 Matt was a jumpscare. This makes me want to go through my old shiny hunts.
when i saw you recorded the first clip on 4/4 (my birthday) i literally did the leonardo dicaprio point meme
😭 amazing video as always absol :]
Happy early birthday!
@@OHapybara thank you!!
man your videos are the coolest. such awesome original and unique ideas and always so well put together/edited
Shiny Mienfoo? I hardly know her.
(jk she is doing very well and has reached the pinnacle of power for a Pokémon! Amazing video as always, and SUCH a fun blast from the past!!!)
this makes me miss when the internet was fun.
Man, this video has such a comfy, nostalgic vibe. Makes me miss the simpler times.
The gameplay videos recorded on a camera, the way TH-cam used to look in the late 2000s, I miss it all :' )
I see what happened. You didn't release the footage originally because you felt bad about lying to your dad, but you finally realized it wasn't technically a lie because he said "or something".
This is such an awesome and interesting video idea, I can't believe you held onto this for this long!
there's something bittersweet looking at the past, seeing the old bits you made with your friends makes me look back at what i was doing 10 years ago as a 14 year old. i would bring my DS outside with my friends and we'd play together, and then we'd make up our own pokemon stories and act them out in my backyard. simpler times. thanks for sharing Matt!
