This took so long to prepare. Almost 2 weeks of farming, trading via Pokemon Box to then deposit the Premier Balls in FireRed. An absolutely unnecessary extra piece of work but very worth it. Shiny Mewtwo caught in a Premier Ball - You only really need to hunt it once, so why not make it extra interesting!
I was surprised this shined so quickly. I really felt like it would be a long one for some reason. Sometimes you just have a feeling about a hunt and I thought it'd go to 20,000+ but apparently not.
This may be my last upload until Scarlet and Violet come out so I will see you guys in Gen 9.
Thanks for watching as always!

Congratulations on the shiny Mewtwo! I never would've thought of using a ghost type and using Trick to give it Leftovers to prevent Struggle from hurting the shiny. I appreciate you sharing your method.

@myuug Год назад

it was the dark type of sableye not ghost, to protect it from psychic moves, mostly. nothing is immune to struggle

@milky7257 10 месяцев назад

@@myuug But it has to be Ghost as well since Mewtwo has Swift.

Awesome find, congrats Steve! Was amazing to see your reaction, one of the most genuine reactions I've seen in one of your videos in a long time. A great hunt to finish right before Gen 9!

@panda_phat Год назад

It's so cool to see these shiny legendaries in Colosseum. Mewtwo's tail almost looks gold, and his eyes glowing during attack animations is awesome. Cool hunt, and congrats on finding it!

Man, Mewtwo is and always will be thé endboss Pokémon for me. Such an epic monster! Congratulations on the finishing of this quest and on this amazing capture! I love how prepared and dedicated you are! Getting Pokémon inside special balls is also something I myself really like to do, really awesome to see it with this extremely awesome Mewtwo. One of my favorite video’s/captures of yours yet, congrats man ✨

@Zamastarful Год назад

got one of my dream shinies last week thursday, a snorlax, in crystal around 1300 resets it was so chill and your videos inspired me to hunt him :)

@tkirbs4711 Год назад

Classic hunt, congrats! Glad you went above and beyond on the preparation. I hope to take similar precautions when I hunt FRLG Mewtwo in the future!

@zAlexHD Год назад

Congrats man! Must feel great to have so much preparation pay off!

@keir92 10 месяцев назад

Funny how, knowing the way the RNG works, that little break you took was instrumental in making the shiny land exactly when it did.

@bennythebutcher0310 5 месяцев назад

How do figure? I’m not trying to be rude but very interested how the RNG may work.

@uhsquid 4 месяца назад

@@bennythebutcher0310 im not exactly an expert in gen 3 rng, but basically the way shininess is determined is based on your "frame" and your trainer id (generated at the start of your playthrough when you hit new game). the frame progresses with time, so him taking a break right then made him land perfectly on a "shiny frame" which made the mewtwo shiny. (pretty sure its more complicated then this, but i dont really know much more than this lol)

@obitoast369 4 месяца назад

@@uhsquidThat is how the shiny RNG works on RSE but not FRLG. Shiny frames are notoriously very hard to deal with in those gen 3 games

@Uncle_Iroh65 Год назад

Hi Sonikks just want to say that I enjoy your videos. You are the only pokemon channel I watch now because I don't rly have time anymore with college. But I make the time to watch your videos soley because I know that you shiny hunt on genuine devices like GBA and DS's, etc. I dont know why but to me the fact that you get these shinys on genuine nindendo hardware makes the shiny so much more meaningful in my opinion.

@iMind-Juris Год назад

This was so awesome! Glad I was there when this happened 👀 It really just makes me so happy when people properly prepare for a hunt and capture. I appreciate the strategy of tough captures like this and I'm disappointed when people just decide to YOLO lol rofl throw a ball OMEGALUL and hope they end up catching it in an X ball but inevitably throw a master ball turn 2. Okay maybe I care a bit too much about that but still. Fantastic capture, absolutely made my day when you found it 👏

@MarkStockley Год назад

Been waiting for this, congrats again man!

@benjaminschmidt3404 Год назад

I think that preparing for hunt's so much is what makes them special. Every shiny video from you is a delight and i hope that it will be like that in the future. See you in the next Stream.

This hunt for mewtwo reminds me of the time I shiny hunted my own mewtwo for 3 months and after a long an crazy journey, I found him in 4'344 encounters on my own leafgreen. boy it was nuts back then. Congrats on your own shiny mewtwo!

@blur8163 Год назад

Now this is awesome! There’s an art to catching Pokemon besides just chucking a Master Ball like every other shiny video, kudos for that. I appreciate this video also because I too love catching legendaries in premier balls. I’ve never shiny hunted but maybe I should start!

@MewtwoExMasterMusic Год назад

Thank you for the respect you gave ol 150! Also that has never happened to me in all my years of hunting - taking an ingame break and hitting the shiny frame! Mad kudos to that! 2nd Edit - when looking for special attack Mewtwo at lv 70 you are looking for around 260 sp attack at catch without calcium. 3rd Edit - shiny Mewtwo’s eyes glow blue when he gets hit with an attack and moves his arms as if saying “Enough”. Best when getting hit with a low effects move like a Pound or Headbutt.
