THE LEGENDARY SHINY ALPHA PIKACHU HUNT - Pokemon Legends: Arceus 

Can’t wait for the next video. Still hunting for my first shiny alpha, shiny alpha rypherior is my target.

@@PurpleWurmple531 good luck! my first shiny alpha was no charm in an mmo, and it was H-zorua, so i got pretty lucky!

@@aidenwillig4503 Thanks!

its a women pikachue not mAil

Stop it get some help

The month long grind has paid off, I no longer have to be traumatized by raichu second hordes 😂

@@EternalRadiant I bet you can’t get a shiny alpha galade

I can’t look at pikachu the same way anymore 😭

@@EternalRadiantlol

252 +atk light ball adamant pikachu volt tackle vs 0 hp 0 def human. Guaranteed OHKO

@@nickykoston466 idk, I'm pretty bulky

@@EternalRadiant They couldn't survive on cuteness back in Hisui, they had to be primeval. G-Max Pikachu, on the other hand,just looked like a microwaved Peep imo

I'm working on getting one for myself but oh my god I just got a shiny west sea gastrodon from outbreaks yesterday and I'm so freaking happy about it

I can def agree with the mechanics I love PLA’s mechanics WAYY more

@@EternalRadiant PLA and Sc Vi were in development at the same time. PLA's devs are the same as the Ultra games and they seemed to have a better grasp on the what the game needed to be thus making a more complete projects, combined with the fact it didn't need multiplayer allowed them more time for its base mechanics. Sc Vi did a new art style that doesn't work as well with the Switch on its scale (it likes low tex, low poly, and good lighting a-la BotW and TotK). Also it feels like Sc Vi were chasing trends rather than making them. Because PLA is fundamentally a side game (no matter what GF says) it allowed more freedom in a much more complete and unique game and not a mashup between the BotW and Classic Pokemon gameplay.

Also I've been hunted for Shalpha Snorlax for like a month and finally just traded for it.

@@VariaBug i did a shalpha map quest type thing and was stuck on highlands for 3 weeks 💀and then the next day after i found 1 i found 2 more for map quest 💀

​@@VariaBugyall, we don't need to dunk on one to raise the other. Both have good and not so good points. What we need to take from this is that the two different teams have perfected enough mechanics to where, if combined, they could grant us something on par, if not better than PLA mechanics wise, as well as have all the immersion and exploration, as well as emotion that SCVI achieved. I really do hope we get to see some of their combined efforts in the DLCs, and I'm looking forward to two years from here. Imagine the game they could make with the entire efforts of the programming teams and design teams now, post-gen 9 The better models, textures, plot, characters, writing, rendering, ambiance, sound design... we're set up for the two best pokémon games of all times to be released back to back ...or I will eat my words, because gamefreak

This comment means a lot to me thank you ❤️ IMO the size of one’s collection doesn’t matter, it’s about the memories made. I’m sure you’ll never forget getting the shinies that you caught. Thank you for the comment :)

Never expected pikachu would be the reason I go clinically insane 🤪

But this is catching ashes pokemon. Pikachu is the most important. There he needs to catch a male. (Jk lol)

The one comment here not destroying me for getting a shiny alpha female pika thank the lord 😭🙏 thanks for the comment :) i definitely agree that SV are more replay able games

😭😭😭

LETS GOOO :D glad purple wurmple got some spotlight in this video :)

Thank you for the comment! I made the correction in my pinned comment a while ago, but I appreciate the detailed response / correction. I should’ve honestly done more research before scripting 😂 and no worries I know you didn’t mean to devalue anything so :p And thanks for the congrats :D

@@EternalRadiant Of course! I respect the hunt always, it's a wonderful thing, and shiny alphas are just so cool to have. And it's good to see you're like "oh hey, more research pre-scripting then", because you can actually find some REALLY COOL AND USEFUL stuff! For instance, prior to doing research I didn't know you could multibattle those mons that aggro in groups by stunning them! One other thing: you can actually get EVEN MORE permutations out of a two-wave MMO outbreak! The site you were using has an "advanced" mode that covers you moving far enough away/fast traveling away and then returning while less than 4 mons are left in the first wave, as the game advances the RNG with spawned mons that aren't really there. It's really interesting, and can get permutations even out of nonhostile mons (or even get you over FIVE HUNDRED permutations with a big enough wave 1!), but I am not sure if you've used that before, nor am I sure if you'd WANT to, given the sheer time investment it can lead to. While I can personally vouch for it working, it takes awhile, so be sure to weigh it against what else you could be doing at the time, or if you'd rather just use the faster permutations in general.

@@cyberworldcatgirl4188 your trans flag alcermie pfp is adorable

Appreciate it, thank you! Not gonna lie I was close to giving up on it multiple times lmao

At least Ash can still bring his Pikachu to other regions meanwhile ours are stuck in SwSh

For real, pikachu was constantly on the brink of killing me 😂😭

Woah didn’t notice that lmao

Congrats! Happy for you :)

I definitely recommend it! While the permutation method doesn’t guaranteed a shiny alpha, the odds are really REALLY good the more permutations you go through!

I hope you get a munchlax soon! Thank you for the comment :)

W gamefreak

Thank you :D it was a little over a month grind but I’m glad it’s finally over

I honestly prefer arceus over scarlet gameplay wise. But for now, I’d say scarlet because of future updates

My favorite game of all time 🔥🔥🔥

I love legends arceus respect :)

Niceeee 😂

LMAOOO

You’re def getting at LEAST 10 shinies 😂

​@@EternalRadiantI'll take a rain check on that PLA shiny luck, had to hunt a couple Lokix for my boys (got em) and collect/hatch Grookey (not yet). My only shiny alphas are Infernape, Skuntank and Unown out of 150ish from PLA. Oh snap, here's a crazy idea that might take a few minutes: shiny hunt every Alpha Unown... You're welcome 😂

@@DaneOrschlovsky ooh gl on grookey hunt! I’m 2/3 so far from finishing the line. And I’m super jealous of the shiny alpha infernape 😭 …that unown challenge is crazy…writing that down :)

@@EternalRadiant thanks man, I'm only ~225 eggs deep so far, then I have to shiny hatch their Galarian starters next. 28 unique alphas of the same species will probably take a while, you might start in Hisui and end your journey in Sinnoh 🤣

Appreciate the comment thank you :D also yeah I learned literally 20 mins after I uploaded that you can’t get alphas from a normal horde from my friend LOL

LETS GOOOO W

Thank you and congrats on the shiny alpha tangela! Great shiny :)

If you got it from an outbreak/massive mass outbreak it wasn't 409600, but that's still incredible. Check your research level on it as well, as that impacts the odds. For me, I have research 10 on every pokemon, the shiny charm, and I hunt a ton of massive mass outbreaks, so I got about 120 shinies at this point (but still no wyrdeer or kleavor)

@@portwise23 I had research level 8

​@@EternalRadiant can u do on of those things where you shiny hunt what you pull out a pack but on arceus also seriously I'm a big fan you got to be my fav pokemon youtuber

I gotchu!! :D

@@EternalRadiantthanks 😊

NOOOOO anything but that 😭

I will have a poll later this week so everyone can choose the type :)

@@EternalRadiant What about catching Ash’s other Pokémon, like Torkoal and Unfezant?

Congrats! Amazing find :)

Not really. Raichu doesn't have the best stats. Besides, I started off with a shiny Shinx, so that's who I'm keeping on the team.

Name it Bubblegum

@@lindseylindsey9200 already named it neon

@@land8780that’s such a good name too!

Thanks for the Twitter luck c:

OF COURSE DUDE!

Thank you :D

Be on the lookout for a poll to see what mono type I’ll hunt next :D

Thank youuu

THANK YOU! A shiny alpha mamoswine is amazing too, congrats!

I just did too 🥳🥳

I really hate that there’s no noise indicator in SV, that one change would make such a massive difference

A bit late but the bio updates for shinies after you evolve them not just catching or battling them

Yep made a correction in my pinned comment!

@@EternalRadiant i ment the shiny chance

Thank you!! 🙌

Thanks! Got extremely lucky haha

YES this would be the peak Pokémon game

Ooh nice congrats!

thank you! its the welcome to alola ost :)

We share the same opinion as well. I love and prefer PLA’s mechanics and gameplay, but there’s no room for updates/DLC. SV at least has weekly raid updates and DLC content so there’s more to do

Thank you ❤️

❤️❤️❤️

Thank you :)

DON’T DO IT, DON’T MAKE ME GO THROUGH THE PAIN AGAIN 😭

That’s what I was saying. Redo

Niceeee

Haha just noticed I got a bunch of the purple ones 😂

Fake pikachu 😭😭😂

WORTH….I think? 😭
