  • I've always had the idea of wanting to complete a shiny badge quest in a Pokemon game: a challenge where you have to catch a shiny Pokemon before each badge. I decided to give it a shot in Pokemon Scarlet and see just how easily you could do it. This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

Side note I also failed multiple donzodo and gyarados to them spawning in the background and immediately vanishing. Not sure if because swimming or giant models...

    For my starter, I went for Rookidee and actually got him. I didnt hunt on Poco Path since I didnt really like any shinies there. My other encounters so far are
    Psyduck
    Tadbulb
    Flamigo
    P. Wooper
    Larvesta
    Cufant
    And now Im hunting Gible.
    Edit: Found Gible
    Followed by random Hariyama while grinding
    Followed by a Marill while looking for Hatenna
    Then Hatenna
    Then a random Nymbke while grinding
    Followed by Rotom
    And a super fast Pawniard
    But I didn't use outbreaks so far since I've been so unlucky with the pokemon for them. But now I will try to get a Cetoddle with one
    Edit 2:
    Got Cetoddle
    Followed Aqua Breed Tauros! I can't believe I got him I assumed I'd get regular one!!!
    Followed by Toedscruel who took so long
    Finally I also bred my starter Skeledirge, although I used the masuda method and got it in 7 eggs!!!

    I'd say you could always do a round two of this challenge, as random shinies are random shinies. The only one you got that you were 100% for sure going to get was Fuecoco given shiny breeding is basically a guaranteed shiny, so doing another round of this could very well get you the other targets you did aim for. My only suggestion is a no dupe clause so you don't have to deal with finding a multiple super common shines like the Pawmi line or in your case Shinx. Anyone doing these sorts of challenges use that as to keep their teams diverse.

    Finding so many shinies was my experience playing Violet for the second time, too. I've never tried to shiny hunt or anything, they just kept appearing. At one point, I literally deposited one shiny (I'd evolved it all the way), turned around, took four steps, and found another one. I've never had that happen before, not even the first time I played Violet or either time I played Scarlet. Absolutely wild.

    This video perfectly illustrates why that shine & sparkle should happen in the overworld too. The amount of times I heard “Oh that’s so hard to see” is so telling AND TPC sponsored this?!? C’mon guys, glad John isn’t colorblind or have vision problems, this is legit a disability issue. I really hope they patch it in, this was a great video!

    Would love to see you tackle this in HGSS south the cute charm glitch! If your leading party member had the cute charm ability, your shiny odds are really high (don't know the exact number on top of my head).
    I think it's one of the few games that give you a boost to shiny odds this easily.

    • @LuBa01
      @LuBa01 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Actually its not that easy. The cute charm glich only happens when your TID and SID are very close to each other (e.g. TID 62279 and SID 62281). So to make this possible you have to rng abuse your TID at the start of the game, otherwise you probably wont get a TID/SID combo close enough to eachother to activate the glitch.

    Doing my own version of this challenge now. So far I've got an Azurill (now Marill) on the team! Looking for a full odds Flamigo for my second wishful choice, but it's taking an extremely long time despite being able to spawn a lot of them.
    Edit: Mass outbreak of Bagon caused me to abandon Flamigo. I now have a shiny Bagon as my second member.
    Edit 2: Current team is Flareon, Hariyama, Sandygast, Shelgon, Pawmot, and Azumarill. In the box are Cufant, Wiglett, Mismagius, and Fletchinder. Currently on the hunt for Toxel as the Poison/Electric typing will finish out my type coverage perfectly.
