    The first time you get a pop-up about less pokemon spawning, it means you've knocked out 25. The 2nd pop-up means you've knocked out 50. Really good for keeping track if your counting is wrong or you just don't want to count at all.

    A note regarding caves and valleys: Caves and valley areas do decrease the spawn zone but they can also spawn Pokémon inside of walls and ceilings (if you’re in a cave). Though this is something Nintendo or Gamrefreak is probably going to patch up in future updates, for the time being you should scan the walls for any hidden Pokémon and/or hidden shinies which may be inside of the walls and ceilings. You can do this by holding down ZL and simply looking at the wall and moving around so that you can see the entire length of the wall or ceiling; most of the time you can lock onto Pokémon through walls.

  • @polarbroomega7263
    @polarbroomega7263 Год назад +333

    A note that helps a great deal, at least for me, on counting how many you've killed. Your "The outbreak has less pokemon" or w/e message is your 50th, so you can just not count until you see that message, then count the next 10. It's infinitely easier to pay attention for the message than keep track of 60 individual kills.

      No the message saying "the number of pokemon SEEMS to be getting lower" means you've KO'd 30. When it says "the number of pokemon is certainly/forsure getting lower" means you've killed all 60. there is no message for 50 KO'd outbreak pokemon

    • @feynxwright2117

      On Serebii it says every 20-30 Pokémon killed you get a notification, so It would probably be best to count 20 after the second notification to be sure

    Dude!!!! I tried your method and in a little over half an hour got my Shiny Noivern - a mon I've been hunting since SwSh came out!!! I don't have the shiny sandwiches or charm yet, so I found a mass outbreak of noivern using your re-set method and made an encounter power 2 dragon sandwich and then, funnily enough, got a noibat!!! I then evolved her and boom!! One dream shiny down!!!
    Thank you so much for the detailed explanations AND how to change the screen color for better help distinguishing colors. I used to play hockey and got more than my fair share of concussions so I can't stare at a screen for long periods of time without migraines or extreme headaches, so I was worried about shiny hunting when I found out you had to look for them instead of listening. You're the best!!! off to hunt Riolu and Varoom next

      You can keep going in that outbreak until the time of day or number of Pokémon runs out. All of them after the 60th have the same odds. Catching a shiny, saving, and picnicing will only decrease the full spawnable amount by 1.

    If you're having trouble keeping track of how many Pokemon you've defeated using the Lets Go feature, you can always keep track of the specific Pokemon material they're dropping via your inventory. For example, if you're shiny hunting Florges - take note of how many Florges petals (or whatever they're called) you have in your inventory and how many each Florges is dropping when defeated. From there it's pretty easy math to figure out how many Florges' you've defeated via the material drops.

    • @johnp6607
      @johnp6607 Год назад +2

      I'm sure the amount of materials obtained when defeating a Pokémon can vary from 1 to 3 (and it's random after each defeat) so this isn't a good method.
      Instead, check for when the message pops up saying there are fewer Pokémon in the outbreak, it appears exactly when 50 Pokémon have been defeated, then just count to 10

    This guide is so helpful little tricks that I’ve learnt are doing outbreaks on the edge of towns is super quick if you can see them as soon as you cross the town border and the outbreaks in the ocean seem to spawn a lot more Pokémon and you can just ride a very short distance away to reset the spawns rather than do the picnic method. Just did it for finizen and caught 3 shinys in 20 minutes (first 10 mins I was doing picnic and found none) and also found a full odds shiny sandygast on the beach while riding back and forth to reset the spawns which has a really nice black evolution when you turn it into palossand

    One tip with terrastalized Pokémon walking on the overworld, they may be shiny and you may not notice! Due to all the glittering I didn't realise my elektross was shiny and thought the green colour was normal (just forgot I guess) I caught him only because he had a dragon terra, and I didn't have his final Evo in my Dex. Noticed later I battled a shiny, mourned thinking I killed it without noticing. But found it in my boxes when I was choosing my 6 Pokémon for elite 4. Just a heads up.

    You probably don't want to save AFTER making your super-rare sandwich-before finding a shiny-as he recommends at 13:45. All meal buffs vanish upon reloading, which would eschew the bonus rate for Pokémon other than just the dozen or so static ones present when saving. I hope this doesn't mess up too many people.

    Depending on the terrain (and how difficult it is to tell the shiny apart), it can actually be better to do the ride away and back method as it can generate new pokemon faster and you can ride up next to them and get a closer look. You can ride in a circle around the mass outbreak causing the non-outbreak pokemon to despawn, freeing those spawn slots for the outbreak mons.
    Also if you are shiny hunting on the cheap, it can be helpful to make a cheap encounter power sandwich to reduce the spawn rate of surrounding pokemon.
