Off topic: I'm currently hunting for Shiny Growlithe in HeartGold and switch in my Shiny Victreebell to do a test run on a normal one to use Sleep Powder and it used Roar and ended the battle. Thank God it wasn't the Shiny! Didn't know that was possible!
I could never see Gardevoir's sprite the way you originally perceived it, but when you edited the sprite to talk my whole life changed 😂 I'll never be able to unsee this now lmaoooo
Man, this makes my Modest female ralts I found randomly in Ruby feel incredibly rare LOL Needless to say, I was super stoked when I found it but considering it took you this long to find it, perhaps I should cherish it even more.
I don't know if it's possible to put into words how long I was stunlocked by the ralts being named ibuprofen into the live breaker reaction being another cam and not just a still image reveal.
i was upset that you got it during one of the only streams recently i wasn't watching live, but then i realized that if i had been there it would have caused you to hit different frames and not get the shiny, so it's basically all thanks to me that you got it (kidding obviously). huge congrats!
imagine if you asked him a thing as simple as "do a heart with your hands for the chat", that would have caused him to not press the reset buttons on the right time so yea.
Because of the time (cal) zone difference, I've almost never been able to watch you live, and I'm always surprised by any video of yours, but with Threads and sometimes Twitter, I've been able to see the background of your shiny adventure and knew a video was coming eventually, building the hype, so glad to be part of your community !
SHINY RALTS ON EMERALD OH MY GOSH! Lol love the videos, I’ve been going back and rewatching videos from 8y+ ago and enjoy them just as much as your new ones. Thank you for the laughs.
Hugeee congrats dude, this is always going to be one of the hunts everyone should check off their list when they feel brave enough. Excited for whatever comes next!
Dude that camera angle of the wurmple was so good! Also so nostalgic to see Beastmodegaming again, and love the little so to Waddy lol. Massive congratz on the Ralts dude, BIG W, love the third reaction of it LMAO
Oh, I love how purple they look in the GameCube games! I wouldn't have minded that coloration carrying over into future titles! Also, congrats, much respect for sticking with the hunt, however long it took. Went through something similar for a Shiny Gligar in XD- that hunt took years, accounting for all the breaks I took.
Hey Matt, I just wanted to say I really love your content and it's always a pleasure to see a new upload from your channel. Thank you for sharing your passion with all of us and the best of luck on any and all future hunts!!
Great video! Loved the "AH" and adored your use of Colosseum and XD to show to alternate shiny sprites! The intec screen is a great touch! I love that the face sprites for the shinys are also using a frame from move animation too! Genius sonority really put in the work with these games. Cant wait to see more vids!
Doing a badge quest in sword, your vids have been a huge inspiration and extremely motivating ( you actually inspired me to start one due to your own badge quest in sword < 3 ) searching for either nickit or zigzagoon ( naming nickit either silver or shiver, and zigs either slushy or slurpie ). just around 2000 encounters so far. Love your videos so much !! < 33 thanks for all the content you’ve provided over the years :] After 2990 encounters…. I managed to get pokerus! This is like my fourth time getting pokerus 😭 why can’t it be a shiny instead! Over odds now , at 4,547 encounters . So I’m taking a little break from nickit/zigzagoon and going to try and masuda method a scorbunny! Then I will come back for nickit/zigzagoon :] 721 eggs for shiny scorbunny! And in the same day found a full odds hoothoot!
Matt this video is the best… I love watching your channel with my wife. This meme has been really helpful for us to remember taking our meds in the morning, I will tell my wife “let’s take ibuprofen together” and we so far haven’t missed a day
gratz on the ralts !! unfortunately didn't catch the final stream but i was there for the seedot ! cool to see that phase 2 happened while you were watching this house has people in it -- verrry good taste
Just thought I would comment.. Absol you have renewed my love for Pokémon, I am 26 having a child and you showed me it is not lame to have a love for a game like this! It is cool af! Thank you so much now I have 4 game boys and am running 2 ds lites thank you!!!!
Would you ever consider an “Absolute Plays” movie for the first 3 gen games? These movies have kept me company on my lonely night shifts and long runs more times than I can count - I even listened to them to get me through the 4 hours of an ultramarathon! Would be incredible to relive those gb/gbc/gba games of my childhood through your eyes, and see all your 1/8192 shiny encounters!! Thanks for all you do Matt; I’m truly grateful for all your hard work :)
the first shiny zigzagoon was my first stream i ever came into i think i showed up for about 30 seconds and then the shiny popped up. streams are always the best im really glad i get to tune in every now and then!
Wow I can't believe you documented this hunny got so long! Congrats on the Ralts and commitment after all these years. I definitely know the feeling. Been resetting for a shiny Ho-Oh in HeartGold since 2019. It's an on and off hunt.
I also started this hunt a little bit ago and recently tuned into a stream where you had a small Capture of a gen 3 game of this Ralts hunt. Gz on the shiny it's sprite is too good in Gen 3
Congrats on the shiny ralts! I litterally just got mine on the 4th!!! This makes me so happy I want to evolve it but at the same time I dont. Might hunt my second one this way to keep as a ralts!
Yay my Omanyte meme made it in the video! I feel honored 😢 i was there for zigzagoon and seedot i cant believe i missed ralts your reaction was so good let alone the breaker reaction! Congrats Matt
Nice, one time my sister reset my game when i found a shiny, R.I.P Shiny Numel on Ragged Pass in Ruby. (Btw i love your content have been a subscriber for 1year now.)
i was in stream when absol caught the shiny! i was blasted out of my mind though so all i remember is just them getting it out of the pc and looking at it, but still fun to be there :]
You spooked me with how you made the sprite talk... thankfully my view is near incorruptible of Gardevoir's sprites. But man... 7 phases. That's nutty. Which does remind me of that one guy who is with the help of an AI, is hunting every shiny Pokémon in each route. Managed to obtain 1 Shiny Seedot at the moment. He is still streaming today. I might actually want to hunt for my own shiny Dustox at some point. Or heck do my own shiny quest in my own copy of Ruby when I order it sometime next month or so. Looking forward to the next video I hope you've been well, Matt.
level 4 ralts only knows growl btw so teleport jokes don't work here

But what if we made the joke anyway
Where were you in Iowa I live there and want to know if qe were close

doggie on the floor like "shiny lotad?? shiny lotad??? what does it mean? does it mean i'm a good dog???"
(also seeing my singles can painting from goddamn high school on the layout is a "spongebob pointing at himself on tv" meme moment for me rn lolll)
Man, this makes my Modest female ralts I found randomly in Ruby feel incredibly rare LOL Needless to say, I was super stoked when I found it but considering it took you this long to find it, perhaps I should cherish it even more.
Yeah any shiny pre-kalos are rarer
I don't know if it's possible to put into words how long I was stunlocked by the ralts being named ibuprofen into the live breaker reaction being another cam and not just a still image reveal.
Matt sounding like an NFL commentator on that Ralts reaction lmao love it

We thank you for your sacrifice o7

Hey everybody it's me, gardevuah - Gardevoir, 2023
They finally get to use their real mouth without judgement

Your videos are always a treat man! Been watching you since 2014 and you make high quality entertainment! Thank you for doing what you do!
Hugeee congrats dude, this is always going to be one of the hunts everyone should check off their list when they feel brave enough. Excited for whatever comes next!
This has gotta be the most excited I've seen him get for a shiny
Dude that camera angle of the wurmple was so good! Also so nostalgic to see Beastmodegaming again, and love the little so to Waddy lol. Massive congratz on the Ralts dude, BIG W, love the third reaction of it LMAO
I’ve never heard of that nose and mouth thing before but I look forward to telling others about it
Live Breaker Reaction made my night lmao. I really need to catch some of your streams
The anthem brings the luck when you need it most, the prophecy for told. Awesome to see you finally claim your Ralts!
Always happy to see you, the origin of the anthem, still around!
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon Haven’t missed an upload yet, I’m just like Batman, lurking in the shadows until it’s my time to strike 😂
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon I named my gardevoir airalin after airalin the gardevoir

With the power of ibuprofen, anything’s possible
Congrats Matt Huge Accomplishment in such little encounter for this type of hunt!!!
I think this is the first time I’ve seen shiny lotad. What an underrated shiny
Hey Matt, I just wanted to say I really love your content and it's always a pleasure to see a new upload from your channel. Thank you for sharing your passion with all of us and the best of luck on any and all future hunts!!
Congratulations on the shiny Ralts my guy !!!!!! And such a cool find in Gen 3 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
CONGRATS MATT!!! Also no freaking way, I too thought that those were Gardevoir's nose/lips when I was younger xD
Great video! Loved the "AH" and adored your use of Colosseum and XD to show to alternate shiny sprites! The intec screen is a great touch!

gl on the badge quest !!
Good luck!!!
good luck dude
Such a hype moment! Congrats Matt!
Your videos are such a good thing to just vibe and watch ngl , best shiny hunting videos on RUclips in my opinion .
Seeing that 2019 clip brought me way back to around the time I first started watching. What a trip!
Matt this video is the best… I love watching your channel with my wife. This meme has been really helpful for us to remember taking our meds in the morning, I will tell my wife “let’s take ibuprofen together” and we so far haven’t missed a day
Congrats man! Seeing this live was absolutely incredible!
I loved this video Matt! Really nice showcase on the gamecube and the golden SP with the XD logo looks insane! Keep it up! :D
BROOO that "hey everybody it's me Gardevoir" thing had me BAWLING. 😭😭😭
You must have some impressive video footage organization to be able to edit together all these hunts that took place over years.
it's actually an organizational NIGHTMARE, but I manage it somehow 😂
gratz on the ralts !! unfortunately didn't catch the final stream but i was there for the seedot ! cool to see that phase 2 happened while you were watching this house has people in it -- verrry good taste
Love to see it - congratulations on your shiny, one I can only dream of owning in Gen 3 ❤️
So happy for ya buddy, this is one of my fav vids now! Cool to see the 2nd zigzagoon live!
Loved watching this journey live!

Congratulations! I got mine in 3 encounters, but good on you for sticking through a super hard hunt!

congrats on the shiny im happy you finally got i cant wait to see what new shiny you will go for
Gardevoir was always one of my favorites from Gen 3, congrats!!!
I also started this hunt a little bit ago and recently tuned into a stream where you had a small Capture of a gen 3 game of this Ralts hunt. Gz on the shiny it's sprite is too good in Gen 3
loved seeing this live, congrats again!
Great job Absol and I really liked your reaction and keep up the Amazing work
The reveal that the "LIVE BREAKER REACTION" was, in fact, a live video feed of a breaker.. Thats why I always watch your videos to the very end
haven’t even started the video and i already know it’s gonna be a banger
Congrats on the shiny ralts! I litterally just got mine on the 4th!!! This makes me so happy I want to evolve it but at the same time I dont. Might hunt my second one this way to keep as a ralts!
Matt is by far the best Poketuber and it isn't even up for debate. No one else could handle Shiny Ibuprofen and live.
wow i rly love this shiny, but this is actually insane, gz!
congratz welcome to the shiny gen 3 ralts club
dude, i had just had the same napple tale song in the beginning stuck in my head for the longest, what a funny coincidence lol
Another comfy vid. Thanks dude
It’s a shame that, due to Gen 3’s incompatibility with older games, Ibuprofen may never get to meet Metamucil
Congrats on the shiny!
congrats on getting it!!!
it looks really cool lol
Yay my Omanyte meme made it in the video! I feel honored 😢 i was there for zigzagoon and seedot i cant believe i missed ralts your reaction was so good let alone the breaker reaction! Congrats Matt
Congrats dude! Such a cool find in 3rd gen
Wasn't expecting to be here 4 minutes after upload but here we are, looking forward to the new video!
Decided to rewatch and got my first gen 4 shiny, from a chain of 0 through poke radar no less. Thanks matt
Huge congrats=3 Thank you for sharing your journey with us=3
Congrats on the shiny ibuprofen matt
So glad I was there for the find!
every second is pure entertainment. pls go on with your stuff matt ❤
I'm so glad that I wasn't the only one who thought Gardevoir had a long pointy nose and weird duck face.
This very fun to watch it happen live. Glad I was able to there at the time
Purple shiny Gardevoir may actually look a little bit better than the regular shiny 😯
Congrats Matt!
No way, what an absolute luck.. so proud. Keep up the bangers
You got it on my birthday, congrats!
Congrats on the dream shiny!
Very sorry to hear about Latias though :(
Congrats on the shinies 🎉
The purple hue is so pretty :)
First!
Ralts on my bday, ayo congrats and great vid
Shiny cascoon was my first shiny in my only-use-shinies run of PLA. I named him Yuuichi. He was great.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you this excited to get a shiny. 😅 Very cool find.
Man, seeing the Mermaid Man Cosplay was a throwback lmao
Congrats on the shiny ralts after so long!! Also I know now not to take ibuprofen recreationally.
i cant believe matt "absol" absolblogspokemon would use such horrific language towards shiny dustox.......... apology with tears NOW
ukulele
Never realised how pretty shiny Wurmple is in g3. Congrats!
Congrats on the Raltz man. I’m glad I called it 😂. Plus SECOND VIDEO CAMEOOOO
Congrats!! You got it a day after my bday lol
2:40 it’s honestly so swag to refer to “crappy” as “the c word”
I have the same Gardevoir model and ralts figuine. Seeing them in the intro made me so happy
Omg chill with the encounter reaction repeats
congrats!! hope i get my platinum one soon. my current phase has been a long nightmare
Nice, one time my sister reset my game when i found a shiny, R.I.P Shiny Numel on Ragged Pass in Ruby. (Btw i love your content have been a subscriber
for 1year now.)
Oh my gosh the mermaid man costume! Throwback lol
an amazing shiny! glad you didnt go past 10 phases!!!
My ears were destroyed when you found the ralts but it was worth it! Congrats!
Sad I wasn’t apart of the stream broski! But congrats on the W!!
i was in stream when absol caught the shiny! i was blasted out of my mind though so all i remember is just them getting it out of the pc and looking at it, but still fun to be there :]
Oh my god babe a new Absol Blogs Pokemon Video!
Can’t wait to see what be comes off the ibuprofen so charming and beautiful ❤❤❤❤
i still can’t believe i left 30 minutes before you found the ralts to eat dinner, congrats on getting it!
That’s the first triple reaction with the breaker I’ve seen, breaker went crazy for that one
