    There was a massive club of people on tumblr who passed around non-shiny eggs to matching shiny ID people (it was really easy to help people find their IDs to participate as hatchers). It was insane. So many competitive eggs got passed around. This happened in the X/Y era iirc.

    The Gen 5 intro shiny Mincchino so interesting!
    The reason why that is possible is actually because GF wanted to use an animated sprite for the intro's Pokemon for the first time instead of a static picture like the gens before!
    And instead programming one just for the intro, they copied the animation of a wild encounter Mincchino!
    That means each Mincchino in the intro gets the shiny roll any wild encounter Mincchino would get as well.
    It also rolls nature and IV's, even tho we will never know which ones since it's the Professor's one! Just thought it might interest a few as to why it's possible to be shiny in the intro.

    9:09 you never heard of Shiny PID trading? That was common on X&Y when perfect IV breeding became much easier and you could hack your game PID much easier on the 3DS. A lot of people would go on trading boards when they bred a perfect pokemon that wasn't shiny and needed someone else to hatch it shiny for them.

    The Nature-Back Sprite Animation relationship is only present in Diamond and Pearl (not Platinum, not HGSS).
    And it's not about the speed stat, it's about the name of the Nature (the character, personality) to put it simply.
    The groups are:
    Fast (1): Hardy, Brave, Adamant, Naughty, Impish, Jolly, Hasty, Naive.
    Normal (2): Bold, Docile, Relaxed, Lax, Serious, Rash, Calm, Sassy, Quirky.
    Slow (3): Lonely, Timid, Modest, Mild, Quiet, Bashful, Gentle, Careful.
    And the 1-2-3/fast-normal-slow groups aren't the actual time it takes to complete the animation, but rather the "excitement level" of the animation.

      Not trying to be that guy, but technically it would make it the first Pokemon DESIGN ever made. While Rhydon would still be the first Pokemon created since the design was created with the purpose of being a Pokemon instead of just being a fun design that was later used for a Pokemon.
      For clarity, the original design wasn't given the name Diglett until Pokemon was created and by then Rhydon was already designed and named.

    The natures in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum effecting the speed of how fast the pokeball is thrown out makes me wonder how it effects speed running. While it is a minor difference that can add up overtime and can maybe effect overall time in a glitchless run.

It’s not necessarily determined by + or - Speed, but each Pokémon having 3 different animation groups that a selection of natures fall into.

    I have bad news over the Manaphy egg shuffle hunt. In Sword and Shield, and in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl based on code leaks, eggs that would hatch as shiny for their original trainer will hatch shiny for any other trainer, and more importantly for this hunt, eggs that would not hatch as shiny for their original trainer would not hatch as shiny for anyone else, either. So if the Manaphy egg is shiny locked, there will be no way to hunt it in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

    The shiny hunt is very similar to how people found guaranteed shinies back in Gen 6 in X and Y or it was in Sword and Shield who worked like that.

    Regardless, I think the BDSP egg will be shiny locked no matter what, since they changed how eggs are created in gen 8 I think? So now when its shiny on one file, it will be shiny on all files, and same with non shinies.

    Eggs in Sword and Shield behave as either shiny or non shiny, no matching of IDs exists, can only assume it'll be the same in BDSP, meaning the hunt is impossible if they shiny lock the manaphy

    I knew the Swanna reference lol. Also, in FR/LG, the TV in the player's living room has a reference to the Gen 1 games, but it normally isn't able to seen. If you use the walk through walls cheat, and check the side of the TV, it says "Oops, wrong side!" Which is what happens in R/B/Y
    Also, you made the point that it was only Gen 2 had that shiny set up.. however, Gen 1 Pokémon CAN be shiny, and it is also based on stats. While you can't see the shininess of the Pokémon if they are shiny in the Gen 1 games, you can trade them to Gen 2 and they will indeed be shiny.

    In the gen 4 games (platinum I believe specifically), you could go to the union room with other players and each player would contribute an egg. The eggs would all spin, and which ever egg landed in front of you became yours. Super cool idea.

    Also I am so excited for a manaphy egg, but I'm not gonna trade it away for another egg in hopes for a shiny. I want a shiny of every one of the legendaries... but that's too much.
    Although to be fair if you could trade an egg for another egg and others had what was clearly manaphy eggs in the online services, I'd be willing to try cycling through eggs that way... if it's confirmed possible. At the very least I'll store the egg and not hatch it till it is confirmed.

      Werster actually commented on that, and apparently it's not Speed related but Nature related. So Chimchar can have a short entrance in one Nature,but Infernape will have a long entrance for the same Nature. Or vice versa.
      And apparently it's also on Emerald in some way, if I got this right.

    One thing I bet people don't know is that the physical/special split was first introduced in Gen 3, via XD: Gale of Darkness. This only applied to shadow moves, which were classified as having no type, so for example, Shadow Rush was a physical attack, whereas Shadow Wave was a special attack.

This allows you to capture Victini and is the only way to obtain it.
