[LIVE] Shiny Lapras after 1,246 SRs in HeartGold (DTQ #2) 

I love watching video play through's of a shiny dream team best of luck getting them & getting them quick 👍

Sonikks hey may I ask why you hunt for shiny Pokémon? I don’t see any competitive value or anything and I’d just like to know if you don’t mind

Sorry, didn't see this until now. I like shinies, the reaction and adrenaline. It's a personal challenge I guess and getting them live is really nice too because people like to see my shinies. I do a lot of what people would think are "difficult" hunts. It's just a challenge I guess. I just really like Pokémon!

Had a question about hunting this one Im currently going for lapras myself since she only spawns on fridays can i keep resetting my DS time to friday to keep hunting it or can i not turn my DS off. Would turning of the DS reset the number of times ive encountered it?

Have you found it, my friends?

He got very lucky here. This is way under odds. You should see his Lugia in Pokémon Silver hunt!

Honestly I've considered this but I decided not to for two reason; 1. I'm very up and down with hunting. I either hunt like mad or barely hunt at all. Say for example, I started a hunt, say the date and then I don't hunt for a month then return to it, the time is basically false. I don't want people to get the idea that it tooks MONTHS to get shinies if you know what I mean. 2. I dislike it when people mention time as a way of measuring progress. Full odds or methods, you will get more shinies the more you put in. The amount of encounters or resets it took is the only thing it matters. When people say "it took me three years to get this shiny" it's a false report. How many encounters did that person do daily? None, and that's why it took so long, because they didn't put the work in. Hope that makes sense, lol. It's just not a very good way of measuring progress and I wouldn't want to people who watch my videos to be turned off hunting because it took me months to get something.

Sonikks thanks for responding. I get what you mean about the time measurement thing, and I understand that people have misconceptions about the probabilities, math, and how that relates to the time that goes into full odds. I agree that it’d probably confuse people who don’t realize that you might not start a hunt then do it continuously for x time until you get the shiny

It realy is a great shiny

Me as well! #shiny lapras

Good Luck Buddy Don't Give Up!

Good luck!

@@WildWolf-hd5qi thanks!!!

@@Sonikks thanks!!!

Did you get it yet?

Currently at 3k for it so guess we'll see!

@@Sonikks Good going, you can do this!

Grazie! I'm not sure I'd say I'm lucky. I did 42k without a shiny recently. I think I'm just hunting a lot and uploading the videos in batches rather than individually (I'm lazy with editing). Good luck on your hunts!

I don't hunt shinies but I've found 2 both of them fails............................. I'm sad

Thanks! It's worth it, incredible shiny. Good luck!

Thanks, you too!

your welcome! so far i’ve only found shiny geodude in the wild unintentionally, but i’m still soft resetting for a shiny hoenn starter in omega ruby ( because in XY it’s way harder because you have to go through a very long cutscene, whilst in the hoenn games you get to battle with your starter right away )

Um br:0

Good luck!

Same! You’re not alone 😅

Good luck! Never give up!

@@Sonikks finally got it earlier this year

I may do that when I get to 100+ shinies :)

Good luck!

It won't disappear until you leave the area/catch it once you've saved in front of it.

Thank you! It seems a lot of people enjoy my reactions. Yes I'm currently hunting in Crystal. I'm actually hunting the roamers at the moment.

@@Sonikks good luck :) I'm currently hunting for shiny suicune. Got celebi pretty easily

No impact on shiny odds.

You can do it!

Thanks!

Congrats!

Definitely worth it! It was my first main series game, still have my old file to this day. It's filled with lots of shiny targets and has a decent amount of content bc of it's post game.

Yeah as Derpydash said, it's well worth it. It's a bit pricey but content wise it's one of the most packed games there is.

Sonikks I have purchased Heartgold today, and am happy to say that I managed to get a shiny Totodile after 360 soft resets! I’m so glad I purchased this game. I love the fact your pokemon follows you!

Awesome, congrats!

Sylvallu ! Dude absolutely. It’s the best Pokémon game ever made. So much to do and it’s a functional remake of the best generation there is. Filled with everything you need and not yet excessive like the train wrecks that followed it. Unfortunately WiFi servers are no longer around but it was the peak of Pokémon

Sadly in HG/SS, you need to transfer them in. Do you have a completed save file in another copy of Gen 4? You can transfer them from Gen 3 via PalPark.

@@Sonikks I think I might have a diamond; but idk how PalPark works, because its my brother's account, could you fill me in on the details?

you can find his comment just behind

I think "dream team quest" :)

Actual game and DS capture card

Good luck? What?

Lucky my only shinies are fails... Geodude going boom and wobbufete saying bye to me........

any follow ups?

Congrats by the way!!

I used Super Fang. You can't KO with Super Fang or False Swipe.

Cool!

Sonikks yea I used to not use repels and that caused me to find a shiny gurdurr in Pokémon y victory road that was actually my first ever shiny

It's there on Fridays.

That would be cool to do i guess

Oh wow, good luck with that dude... That is a hell of a hunt, takes awhile too.

Good luck!

Jake2ik thanks man

Sonikks thanks

Super Fang lowers Hp by 50p every time and it won't knock out a Pokémon. I don't fail shinies. Yes False Swipe exists but Smeargle is too weak.

@@Sonikks wow the more I learn, also good luck of hunting the remaining 3 for ur dream team 😁

Dude i think you might be 1st
