Shiny Steelix finally appeared after a very long hunt. I took a break for about two weeks to hunt the Roaming Birds in Platinum and it shined upon returning to it within 48 hours! It looks so, so good in this game. I’ve always found its Sinnoh sprite to look a little awkward but once I saw some other hunters like ShinyTwins178, JCBLPs & Alpha Zapdos hunt theirs in this area, I was convinced to add it to my DTQ.
It still blows my mind in 2019 that Steelix is even found in the wild. I grew up playing Kanto and Johto so when Steelix was in the wild in Sinnoh and HG/SS, I was so captivated by finding item evolutions like this. It’s probably nothing really out of the ordinary for many hunters these days but you had to be there man… you had to be there.
This is the third member of my Heart Gold Dream Team Quest file. Next up is Miltank which is very close to the area I was hunting on Route 39 with a repel trick making it 48%. I don’t know when I’ll get around to hunting that though as I’m getting very close to my 100th shiny special. This was my 97th full odds shiny caught so I’m getting close!
Thanks for watching as always.
