Oh thank you so much for this comment!! I was thinking to myself as I was editing, I wonder if anyone watches this after into the video/towards the end. Glad you liked it!
Such a cool hunt, I personally LOVE the Sevii Islands as locations and are easily some of the most underrated locations. Wish they made it into the Let's Go games, but I digress. Congrats on the find(s)! Heracross is one you don't often see in Gen 3 at all. Can't wait to see what else you have planned for the Sevii Islands, man!
Too bad we did not got them in Heart Gold/Soul Silver. Team Rocket basically hid there, Lorenei lives there. A lot of the canon from Kanto like why we could transfer to other regions was kind of explained there.
Pattern bush really treated you well! So lucky! It cracks me up that you wish to phase. As someone who has mainly done full odds for shiny teams, this is a different mentality to me. Maybe when I start actually pursuing a shiny living dex, Ill feel the same way
I tried Heracross in crystal headbutt tree but after to many encounters and almost losing my sanity, found it! This shiny color in that gen is beautiful! Congrats on this and good hunts! (Gabe)
Woah Ariados has such a cool shiny in Colo! Congrats on the hunt here! A friend and I are doing this exact hunt right now, 3k in so hoping for Heracross soon! Best of luck on Ralts and the future Ruined Valley hunt
bro i just got my 8th nosepass in x while horde hunting yanma while watching this rippp sick shinies tho bro, I love how you almost didn't want the heracross xD
19:17 my exact thoughts lmao, after getting into rng manipulation and seeing all the purple water types I thought that maybe GameFreak got a bit lazy with them
I think itd be cool to have a board showing every third gen shiny you've gotten so far, and what's left to get. The ultimate gen3hunter goal could be getting all gen iii shinies
4:14 i got a full odds gen 3 shiny caterpie yesterday and i cant help but agree - its such an amazing shiny line. but i do prefer how shiny butterfree looks in gen 2 the most.
Heracross is such a cool shiny and you can get him in any ball you want here I have one and he is one of the favorite shinys I own I have him lvl 100 and use him at the battle frontier all the time he's a very lucky find one of the few usable bug types in gen 3
Last year, I phased 3 times for heracross in pattern bush. First phase, I caught a modest shiny heracross and my game froze before I saved (lesson learned). Second phase, I encountered a shiny heracross but accidentally ran (6666 encounters too). Last phase, I stopped counting and got lucky with another heracross under odds.
Youd have shit your pants If you Found your shiny Larvitar the same way I did I was Like Half-asleep Hoping to find one of those one night and and while I was Just Staring at it wondering what the shiny version would look like ( I dident have access to the Internet back then to look conveniently) After Minute or 2 I ran from it and guess what Fucking shows up 4-5 patches down past the lucky dancer dudes place? My brain has Vocated from that route ever since.
I really appreciate you taking the time to set up the side by side comparison showcase at the end for the 3D models, thank you!

What?

Your luck is insaneee! 5 shinys so under odds crazy
Congrats 💕
I have 27 bats that beg to differ! 😂 thank you so much
@@Gen3Hunter

So hyped to see a hunt go well for you dude, you totally deserved this one. Also a super cool location!
Massive congratz on all bugs (love the phase luck you had as well)! You're free dude!

Very cool location for a hunt! Done a lot of hunts in firered but never in the postgame. Enjoyed the vid keep it up 🙏

Thank you so much!
LOVE shiny Heracross! Random Safari Heracross was my first shiny as a kid, so I've got a lot of nostalgia for seeing it in Gen 3.
did you catch it?
@@wheatbread9115 I sure did as a kid- no way I could do that today lol I'm not that lucky any more.
I like how you got shiny heracross at exactly 2022 encounters
Congratz on the awesome shinies dude! all under odds is deserved after the Delibird hunt!
Shiny Ariados in Colosseum looks absolutely crazy- congrats on all the great shinies this video!
Black Ariados looks amazing. I am glad that Butterfree looks like that pink butterfree from the anime before shiny Pokemon were a thing.
Congrats dude!!
Never seen this hunt done before, congrats on the great shinies man! Heracross is my favourite Pokémon so it’s great to see
WOW, those bugs look incredible in colo!! Had no idea hera and ariados were so different!
2022 encounters on the dot for target? Trippy.
bro i just got my 8th nosepass in x while horde hunting yanma while watching this rippp
sick shinies tho bro, I love how you almost didn't want the heracross xD
Well deserved hunt after Delibird, congrats!!
Spinarak and ariados both awesome shinies, let’s go!!!! Love to see this content
Congrats again on all the cool Shiny bugs! With I could share your luck with finding the 5% Metapod though.... 😅
19:17 my exact thoughts lmao, after getting into rng manipulation and seeing all the purple water types I thought that maybe GameFreak got a bit lazy with them
As always gen 3 hunts are the best, i miss that battle pyramid hunt man i hope u hunt there again that black charizard was just insane!
I have at least one more hunt I’ll do there!
@@Gen3Hunter would love to see you hunt Umbreon in the battle pyramid that blue ring on umbreon is just so good one of my favorite eevelution shiny.
A Certified Shiny Hunting Classic
Shiny Heracross is so amazing! Metapod is, too. That shiny shocking red... :)
I think itd be cool to have a board showing every third gen shiny you've gotten so far, and what's left to get. The ultimate gen3hunter goal could be getting all gen iii shinies
Ah but that does exist! Check this out: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N-T_C3rhf5DlDJ2USsMSEnnnHbMfUkIwC2zkYc33XUo/edit
@@Gen3Hunter I love it!
I just put up one of ur vids to shiny hunt in the pattern bush to; and after 8 encounters i got shiny spinarak....
4:14 i got a full odds gen 3 shiny caterpie yesterday and i cant help but agree - its such an amazing shiny line. but i do prefer how shiny butterfree looks in gen 2 the most.
Heracross is my favourite Pokémon and favourite shiny Pokémon of all time
Just bought my first GBA a couple of months ago... Can't wait to get myself a FRLG copy

What’s the music you played over the encounters I love it❤️
I think it's the Viridian forest music....? Not 100% sure though
Yup you’re right!
just caught my first shiny turtwig watching this ! (brilliant diamond)
I’m hunting this right now my target is spinarak but I wouldn’t mind phasing here either
My first phase was a ledyba though
That is the place where I found the leddyba which I still using in Pokemon Home
How do you have so many going at once ? I'm interested in automating this process lol.
Bro found this on 2022 in 2022, insane 😭
Did I spy mirage island wynaut there :p

Wow what a journey!! Modest heracross, sounds like a blessing in disguise the game froze😂 but glad you were able to reclaim!
Where do you find the encounters and their percentage for each area, watching you do this is making me wanting to shiny hunt
As Timmy Turner once said:
“Uhhh. Internet”
Dude I’ve been hunting that dang spider on and off for a long time now. Phased on heracross already. I want it sooo bad! It just won’t shine for me
Just simply be luckier
@@ThomasSeeds thanks. I haven’t thought of that. I’ll try it
Best of luck on it!! Try giving that level 9 repel trick a go
@@Gen3Hunter I’ve been doing a level 14 repel trick to get only spinarak, ,heracross, and ledyba
@@mitchboynunn keep us updated!
i was wondering how u got so many copies of games when they are usally so expensive
So I started my channel back in 2019, right before the boom. Lucky I suppose
For a hunt like this, how many encounters would you say you would do a day on average?
So I’m not really great at remembering encounters per day, I more so go based off of hours. Usually 3-4 a day
Youd have shit your pants If you Found your shiny Larvitar the same way I did
