What's astounding is that I randomly turned on the game one time to participate in a raid, and a shiny cyclizar just looked at me and ran off. So it turned into an entire 10 minute session of me chasing it down because it kept dodging me until I finally challenged it to a battle. It was a long one, but a good ol Timer Ball did the trick
I once randomly turned on the game and I was stood next to a wild Tera Wugtrio on a rocky shore, I started the battle and it terastallised and stuff but during the fight I looked around and saw a suspicious Nacli so I ran away and got myself a shiny ✨
That's what kind of could happen in literally any Pokemon game so far. You ever had these times that you just battled or fled a wild Pokemon, took only one step, or maybe even just turned around, to get out of the grass or the cave or wherever you where and then immediately got attacked again - and that at least ten times in a row?
There’s actually a fairly easy method for this dude. Just outside Levencia North, there’s a ledge with a tree on it. It has just enough space to picnic reset with a dragon encounter sandwich on, and you can watch as they run off the ledge and keep an eye out for the shiny one. There’s a video or something on this out there somewhere, that’s how I know about it
I actually have that shiny. I wasn't shiny hunting at all, I was just riding around and my character was facing the screen, and I watched that shiny run full speed into a cliff edge. 😂 I turned around and charged at it, and caught it. I'm sorry for how many times a regular one charged at you, that sounds horrible 😢
I feel the pain of these , it’s awful. And if you don’t want to feel worse keep reading. I was minding my own business making my way to the town down the cliff for the first time and a shiny Cyclizar ran into me from behind and scared the sh@t out of me. They really wanted to be caught apparently. I love my gold lizard.
I cannot recommend the games at all, Story was all kinds of goofy, with good bits here and there but it was mostly mid. The Regional Pokedex is filled with mid ass 'mons, but Cyclizar is one of the only good ones. There's a distinct lack of content in the game, It's ridiculously easy, and there isn't Set mode anymore. The game has it's fair share of bugs too, and not to mention it runs average 30 FPS and in some areas is like 5. Just get Legends Arceus.
There was a time when I WASN’T shiny-hunting and got completely surrounded by cave Pokémon, I couldn’t even leave the cave. The same thing happened on Glaseado Mountain multiple times. Then the one time I’m looking for Bronzor, they don’t show up. On a better note, I unintentionally found my first shiny, a Crabrawler I named Puncher.
Oh this was actually a helpful reminder, I've got one that's been stuck in limbo on my nuzlocke alt since I had to wait for home compatibility and just forgot now that it's here. Got it by complete accident on my way to one of the star bases.
I never suffered that much when I got my shiny Cyclizar I was just biking around on Miraidon trying to hatch shiny Hisuian Zorua and the one singular Cyclizar that was there (shiny) just crashed into me!
Gyarados was easy for me. Made a water lvl 2 sandwich, then went to the outbreak & one spawn in front of me. 🤣 I'm still trying to find the shiny cyclizar. 😭
