[LIVE] Shiny Taillow after 1,049 random encounters in Sapphire (DTQ #3)

  • My third member of my Sapphire Dream Team Quest has appeared in unexpected circumstances! I was only really testing to see if this hunt would work next to Roamer Latias and it appeared. I got Whismur and then a Zigzagoon on the first and second phase which have their own videos if you'd like to watch those.
    Taillow is such a cute Pokemon and I love its shiny. The green and orange combination always hits. Next up is Ralts which will hopefully be a kind hunt but who knows...
    Thanks for watching!

      @liampeterson266 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@knightriff9471 You need a lot of repels and a Pokémon at the same level as the highest possible level in the area then use that Pokémon at the front of your party, since some Pokémon are found at different possible levels and since repels only repel Pokémon at a lower level than you, then you can force certain spawns or eliminate spawns you don't want
      ie. you are shiny hunting for bidoof on route 201 in platinum, starly are at levels 2-3 and bidof are at levels 2-4, when you use a repel with a level 4 Pokémon, and any possible starly spawns are ignored because they are lower level than your pokemon, but not the level 4 biddof, so you can hunt for only the bidoof

    Yo! I have a shiny hunting question and I need expert advice from a pro like you. I want to double hunt on HeartGold, White 2 , & Platinum but the authentic cartridges are soo expensive so i was wondering, is it possible to shiny hunt on a reproduction cartridge? 😳 like the ones on ebay for $35 ? Also, i love your content im a big fan. Thanks for all you do for the community!

    • @Sonikks
      @Sonikks  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey dude, thanks for your kind words!
      Yeah prices are insane at the moment. It's really unfortunate. My best advice to you is to check places people tend to overlook. A lot of my games have come from thrift/charity stores or friends or family. Ask around your family and friendship group as you can normally snag a deal that way. Pawnshops are really good here in the UK for cheap games as well.
      As for your question, I really wouldn't advise hunting on fake games. They do produce shinies but they're quite prone to crashing, particularly when saving. It would be awful if you found a shiny and then lost it. There are a few other problems with fake games like not some of them not being able to trade or transfer. Overall I just wouldn't recommend it.
      I hope you're able to grab a copy dude. Every game is worth hunting in. Best of luck!
