Shiny Shadow Metagross After 11,575 SRs in Pokemon Colosseum!!! 

I loved this game so much as a kid. Didn’t realize until recently that the mons could even be shiny

You mean to tell me this hunt took over 500 hours?! (If my math is right) Wow that is some dedication, I feel sluggish dual hunting alola starters at 2 and a half minutes per reset, can’t imagine maintaining hope for a hunt like this, even with 5 GameCubes at the ready, huge huge congrats!

There’s something amazing about people like you. To have this level of patience is incredible.

congrats, I love your commentaries on the shinies in general, good luck for this year's hunts!

Absolutely epic. Enjoyed this hunt and video of yours from start to finish! Watched it together with Erster, had a blast!! Best of luck on all your hunts in 2023!

This is such an insanely cool hunt. Big congrats man!

Man these resets are no joke, congrats man!

Don't think you can really ask for a much better start to 2023, congrats Mike. Hopefully this means the curse of 2022 is over haha.

Huge congrats! I’m currently hunting suicune, trying to do all of the hunts with shinies that are different from the main series but metagross is the one I’m gonna be dreading the most when I get there

Grats man!!🎉 This type if dedication is what I look for, in any type of gamer/athlete! Youve gained a sub.

The Blu-ish tint on the Shadow sprite is so good!

I applaud your patience. Having to go through this battle 11,000+ times. Over and over and over again. It would drive a human to the brink of insanity.

Congrats man, rewarded for that dedication!

this video introduced me to your channel, i admire your dedication! subbed and looking forward to more cool hunts like this

Epic hunt Mike! Congrats on one of the best shinies in the series and on completing the line. Always thought Nascour’s fight was so dramatic with no music and just crowd noises too!

so cool to see this one finally shine, you mentioned it a few times in previous videos. such a great shiny especially in this game man

You have a legendary amount of patience! And this is SO COOL! I'm inspired!

They can be shiny O_o Damn i played this game when i was 10 and it was one of the best memories i made playing this game. Congrats btw

Nazgor has such a sick design. Great video and congrats man

Congratulations on achieving such an amazing hunt!!!

Huge congrats! One of the sickest colosseum hunts!!!

Absolute banger of a hunt and shiny Mike!!! Congratz my Guy!!! 💥✨

Incredible hunt and incredible start to the year! Congrats man. It's been a pleasure to come across your channel as a fellow shiny hunter. Psyched for 2023!

I have done so many full odds hunts in the main series games but ill never have the balls or patience to do a colosseum/XD hunt😭 crazy shiny and great content man keep it up

Well deserved, congrats mane!!

congrats!!! This looks so dope, super jealous. I love his "alt" shiny in this game, but I'll never be shiny hunting, seems like pure torture to me :D

Congrats that’s a ridiculous commitment! I wish gen 3 carts weren’t so expensive I never got a chance to ever hunt in those games as a kid!

Super cool hunt dude, congrats!

this is freaking insane congrats!!! i love this game generation for the NGC

that's what's up! congrats man! you're the man!

Awesome hunt! congrats, cant believe how much time this took

I can’t believe you have to catch it first to find out if it’s shiny. Great job !

Congrats! What a way to start 2023!

COOL!!! now that’s dedication, subbed

Huge congrats! The GameCube Poke games are my two favorites in the series 😅

Congratulations!

Found a shiny dratini on violet while watching this video! Thanks for the good luck keep at it

Congrats man thats such an achievement

omg u got a Sonikks! /s congrats on the find!

That icon though. 😍 Reminds me of the delta species Metagross artwork. This hunt is insane. I can't imagine doing this hunt on one cube. Almost 600 hours for this shiny at 15min per reset (x5). Congrats!!!

Question is the shiny odds predetermined before you start the battle or could you make a save right before the shadow metagross fighter?

This the craziest most dedicated shiny hunting. Wtf congrats

God bless you Poketubers who do things like this! I didnt even know shadows could be shiny! Always blowing my mind! 😂 ahhh my childhood lives forever on the internet!!

Congrats !!

This is such a weird mechanic, congrats though, this is a sick find.

I never realised that the artwork is different when shiny !

I'm still surprised that shadow pokemon had a chance to randomly become shiny after being caught.

Congratulations

What ribbon does it have ?

that vileplume faint animation is so raw😭

unreal, congrats

Metagross is my favourite pokemon, i approve

Exist some form to change the nature to be other?

you have crazy patience to do such a long sequence over 11k times

It’s an absolute flex to say you have a SHINY SHADOW METAGROSS

Congrats

Congrats on the Meta!! Any plans to do the rest of Realgam Tower?

That box sprite looks fire

Grats!

very nice hunt

Insane hunt! How do you soft reset on gamecube?

Genuine question; why are the shiny colours not what we normally associate them to be with this shiny? Is this just a Colosseum quirk?

Amazing, you’re the king of gen 3 shiny hunting no doubt

very awesome video!! although your route of doing it was longer, still love the altaria , very sick to look at, LOL!! really good stuff dude!! 🎉🎉feel free to hit me up for the hitmontop strat once u decide to do it!! huge congrats again!!!

Pokémon in the boxes look amazing!

I have played and watched this game so many times and somehow didnt even know there were shinies

Good god, are you actually hunting this on one console? I’m planning on getting more gamecubes for colosseum hunts

shiny metagross looks pissed that you found him ngl

Colos shiny metagross looks so nice!

Wait, the shadow Pokémon can be shiny?! I never knew.

Why isn't the X on its face gold?

this is so awesome

Shiny beldum was my first shiny at age 8 on my first Ruby playthrough :') I didn't even realize until battling steven a few times and thinking wtf why isn't mine blue!????

i got hitmontop by random chance, but i really want to do an actual hunt in this game, congrats on metagross

I didnt even know there are shinys in colosseum

Insane

Wonder why they changed the sprite this one is way cooler

To be fair if he was actually able to soft reset all 5 instances at once and just counted it as one reset since he was doing them all at once, it would only be about 2300 soft resets, but that of course adds up to the actual number of resets since they were done in fairness but what a way to make such a long sr hunt so much faster

Can all shadows be hunted for shiny?

Hi bro do yoy have the pkm file? I want to send pokemon gba and get all the ribons😊 or all the shinis bro thanks

Do you play on real hardware?

god i love this

Wait so u did all that grinding for the shiny shadow metagross just to make it not shadow anymore ???

this is literally fucking nuts bro 😂😂 congrats

Insane that people still run these games, instead of just getting the "free" one from ORAS. Are you planning on transferring it up?

Why did I think that Pokémon colosseum didn’t have shinies??

I miss Pokémon colosseum

Shiny shadow hitmontop is a hard one probably a contender for the hardest shiny because of the fact its the first battle that determines its shiny value and its first battle is scripted

I Recently did my first shiny hunt for a Murkrow in Scarlet and violet, which if you don’t know ALOT easier to hunt shiny Pokémon then any other Pokémon game. My hunt only took 20 mins and I YELLED when I saw my little purple murkrow pop out. I can’t imagine the emotion you must have felt finally seeing that boy shine! Congratulations on the sick hunt! Btw I caught my shiny Murkrow in a dusk ball and named her Wednesday. I EV trained her put her in my competitive team to get her the master ribbon.

1:38 why he looks like heartless riku 😂

Wait wait!!! You can shinnies on that game !?? 😮

I don't know how you didn't lose ya damn mind doin all this

I didn't even know the shadow Pokemon could be shiny

Crazy they were able to this in 2003 and waited 20 years to give another 3d game.

I actually got an shiny shadow metagross in Pokémon Go

Have until March this year to transfer it to HOME with the nation ribbon. If you have a national ribbon of Primeape, I will gladly trade you for it. No one else will have a national ribbon Annihilape.

Why not use action replay?

15 min resets for 11,575 resets is 2894 hours or 120 full days of resetting

Dedication

I mean there’s always Manaphy SRs ofc not 3rd gen but man
