I can’t say I have a favorite shiny! Some of the gold gen 1 shines are great though. Hey btw do you remember me from when you only had around 1-2k subs? Edit: favorite shiny is Lapras
Your next task: hunt every pokemon owned by a main character in the anime shiny, in their right gender/form. Example: Ash's Snivy was female, so you would have to hunt for a FEMALE shiny Snivy, not male.
I've never tried a proper hunt in LGPE I just thought the games were fine. Good for what they were, but I had no attachment to it in the way I do others, but the more I see, the more I think I should try a couple hunts on LGPE. Great video!
I feel your pain on chaining magmar (edit: or Lapras XD). It took me 5 hours and 58 minutes (and 54 catches) to get to a chain of 10 hitmonlee, not because they ran away (much though they tried) but because I kept phasing, to the point I abandoned the fourth shiny (a graveler) because I couldn’t stand the thought of starting again AGAIN 😂 in the end I got it at 10 1/2 hours and a 300 chain
I think this is the second game to not rlly need to struggle for funds. The hunts start to pay for themselves. I reset my game and went for nidoran male and sold off all the candies but the nidoran male ones. And. Sweet cash flow.
I think this game got a reputation for "easy" shiny hunting because compared to the old games, it is, and even compared to SwSh it's faster since they're shiny in the overworld. But compared to Arceus or ScVi, it is NOT. 😂 Great job.
I remember Shiny hunting Staryu on Let's Go, Eevee! blind, having not looked up its Shiny colouration beforehand. I was astounded how beautiful it was.
this video began on autoplay since i fell asleep watching youtube last night. i JUST started replaying lgpe before going to bed. Me & Eevee are very greatful for this video!! hunting Caterpie atm!
I got shiny caterpie and weedle with only 54 catch combo each guess I'm just lucky😅😂 also I found 2 other shiny weedle straight after a successful oddish hunt
900 caterpie omg I had bad luck with my nidoran males running from me so I stopped at a 31 combo, and found it really quick. This was before when it was thought to have increased rates whether you caught more or not, so I guess I just got REALLY lucky 😅
When Thumbus got a shiny tentacool instead of a lapras I remembered it happened to me too but I was hunting for a weedle and got another shiny caterpie
I don’t fully understand the shiny concept. So do i catch 31 in a row of the same pokemon then after that i can just keep leaving and entering an area to hunt for a shiny or do i just need to continue catching the same pokemon until shiny appears?
Catch combo wise- you urself can run before a Pokemon flees and the combo does not break. Even if you go to the wrong Pokemon (or wrong shiny for some) just back out and if you have not caught it or if it has not fled the combo still stands.
Johnstone has a great summary of how shiny hunting works in these games in his video about catching all the shinies in these games. If you want to learn how to hunt easily, go check his video out!
I'm currently playing LG pikachu finding a 6 31IV shiny ditto in a master ball (no luck yet) but I managed to get 17 6IV dittos and I'm only missing 12 natures to have all 25 as 6iv set & I managed to get a 4 31iv ditto with 0 in attack & speed but I'm still on the hunt for the ultimate ditto
That’s what I was doing for most of my time but if you’re hunting special spawns without catching them you don’t get candies and you use a bunch of lures lol
This is the one mainline game I just never bought because even for shiny hunting purposes, I had already gotten all of the gen 1 mons before this was out. I also just do not like its control scheme. But I can't deny just how vibrant the game is compared to all of the other Switch pokemon games. It's like they actually took advantage of the fact that it's HD. SWSH and SV just went back to the 3ds era washed out colors.
Cletus says SUBSCRIBE! WERE ALMOST AT 50K!!!! ALSO what’s you’d favorite gen 1 shiny?⬇️⬇️
Hey thumbas ive been wiping up some fanmade content for you! would you mind letting me khow your fav song?
@@Poketipsg surf theme from RSE!
@@Thumbus lol ok! ty!

I'd say ninetales tho i do also have a soft spot for kabutops and arcanine

W idea
That’s genius. I may try this myself
getting a shiny version of all of the protagonist teams would be nice
both anime and manga teams
That’s like saying: shiny hunt with your eyes close and no hands.
@@DittosUniverse no it isn’t bro what
underrated tbh. i liked these games a lot.
holy luck dude..
congrats on the wild finds!! especially *REDACTED*
REDACTED was my favorite find!!
Can we have a colab video for you two? Maybe a legends arceus shiny race or something?
15:08 YIPPEE SHINY DRAGON! 😍

Great video!
Thumb Boy: Allow an expert like myself to explain
3 seconds later....
Thumb Guy: It's not like im an expert or anything 😂😂
Using a master ball on a shiny lapras is a play i would absolutely make 😂
Video suggestion, you spend one day catching green shinies, to support the green gang!
where’s the cletus? i thought those were a myth (im so sorry) ((also this video rocked and was so funny nice job as always king))
Stop
DW Thumbus, you didn't peak in high school. You're still creeping up on your prime!
Love the new profile picture! I Love the let’s go games too!
20+ hours is actually just diabolical
you either love thumbus or LOVE thumbus. there’s no in between.
Goat
Masterballing Lapras is so real. Id have done the same in that situation
Awesome idea for a video! These are my favorite Pokémon games, thank you.
Already a classic

i did the cheating way for hunt! get the first 10 combo from sending the species (hitmonlee for example) from pkm go at safari zone
“And some of them can’t be found in other switch games like Weedle and Caterpie” Caterpie being in SwSh and BDSP and Weedle being in BDSP:
Top 5 shiny hunting methods is def playing Let’s Go. So much fun
3:31 you said that weedle AND caterpie cant be found in other switch games but caterpie is found in SWSH where butterfree got a GMAX
Love the new pfp, man!
Cleatus diff
Damn that was such a banger
I think this is the second game to not rlly need to struggle for funds. The hunts start to pay for themselves. I reset my game and went for nidoran male and sold off all the candies but the nidoran male ones. And. Sweet cash flow.
RAGHHHHGHHHHFGG THERES THE GOOD OLD THUMBO! I see this is what you have been working on. Awesum vid. Yayayyayayaayyayay
I found a shiny magmar at a streak of 10😃

New profile pic! Let’s go!
Geez louise Thumbo
Aww geez
I remember Shiny hunting Staryu on Let's Go, Eevee! blind, having not looked up its Shiny colouration beforehand. I was astounded how beautiful it was.
THUMBUS got rid of his SpongeBob character UNbeliavble
Finally another green shiny connoisseur
I received the notification of the video, and I didn't recognize the channel because of the new pfp lol
this video began on autoplay since i fell asleep watching youtube last night. i JUST started replaying lgpe before going to bed.
Me & Eevee are very greatful for this video!! hunting Caterpie atm!
Good luck!
Hundred hours 100 more reasons to like Thumbus
Nice vid, I picked up the game a few days ago and proceeded to shiny hunt, I get one target shiny before each badge
I got shiny caterpie and weedle with only 54 catch combo each guess I'm just lucky😅😂 also I found 2 other shiny weedle straight after a successful oddish hunt
Bro if you don't catch them on the first or second try run they don't escape before that
Welcome to the team of “I had a good chain going and it was broken by a shiny Dragonite”
Good club to be a part of!
@@Thumbus It sure is! All shiny Dragonites go towards being members of #Greengang
You. Posted ur back start streaming immediately
holy frick shiny lapras looks so nice with a master ball
Thumbas drop gonna be a good day
Good vid
Ayooooo new vid, W
These are some of my favorite pokemon games
This Lapras way is the best! I had it in 40 min
Next challenge: shiny hunt in gen 1 (and no red gyarados ditto transform shenanigans)
900 caterpie omg
I had bad luck with my nidoran males running from me so I stopped at a 31 combo, and found it really quick. This was before when it was thought to have increased rates whether you caught more or not, so I guess I just got REALLY lucky 😅
When Thumbus got a shiny tentacool instead of a lapras I remembered it happened to me too but I was hunting for a weedle and got another shiny caterpie
Let’s goooo
2:30
✨️jUsT LiKe i diD bAcK iN hIgH sChOoL✨️
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm sorry for all the pain you had to go through just to get the f*cking caterpillar
Hey Dude, awesome video. but, you know whem you reach 31 you really don't need to catch anymore right? just wait for shiny
This vid makes me want to play Let's Go again so bad..!
i prefer the fish pfp. every poketuber has a chibi pfp.
You need to watch for their flee animation, if you see it then you have to run away to keep your chain
Was that Charles entertainment cheese a TheRussianBadger reference
My favorite gen 1 Pokemon is Charizard
I like Dragonite 😃
Bro, you missed a shiny! 8:11 it was a pitchy
😭 UR RIGHT (BTW PIDGEY)
My highest catch combo without shiny it’s 2347 I tilt and sell the game… Nidoran I have to find u NOW !!!!!!
I don’t fully understand the shiny concept.
So do i catch 31 in a row of the same pokemon then after that i can just keep leaving and entering an area to hunt for a shiny or do i just need to continue catching the same pokemon until shiny appears?
Yes

What a well made video by such a handsome boy 😊❤
PINK!
Yes ive just finished a badge quest of this game 2 day ago yay
A shiny magmar ran into me when i entered pokemon mansion my first time
Oh yeah i forgot you are the greengang guy
Can you try to find a shiny legendary birb in the wild in your next video?
fun wish i could find 1 tentacool but no luck here
I'm currently playing LG pikachu finding a 6 31IV shiny ditto in a master ball (no luck yet) but I managed to get 17 6IV dittos and I'm only missing 12 natures to have all 25 as 6iv set & I managed to get a 4 31iv ditto with 0 in attack & speed but I'm still on the hunt for the ultimate ditto
Next time you can just sell the candies you earned from the catch combos, usually gives you more than enough money.
That’s what I was doing for most of my time but if you’re hunting special spawns without catching them you don’t get candies and you use a bunch of lures lol
@@Thumbus ahhh, that makes sense 💡
you dont have to catch them all lol just do the combo and pick a spot where u can go in and out they will re spawn every time
18:57 you can't be trusted after that comment 💍🍬
While I was playing on my second save file I found a full odds shiny weedle before I had the first gym badge
If you see a run animation you gotta run first so you don’t lose your combo
This is the one mainline game I just never bought because even for shiny hunting purposes, I had already gotten all of the gen 1 mons before this was out. I also just do not like its control scheme. But I can't deny just how vibrant the game is compared to all of the other Switch pokemon games. It's like they actually took advantage of the fact that it's HD. SWSH and SV just went back to the 3ds era washed out colors.
The controls are definitely rough but it is a very pretty game for sure!
Im also team green! Love green shiny pokemon :)
An easier way to get money is to sell the candy you get from sending all the Pokémon you catch to the professor jsyk
let an expert explain how catch combos work..
proceeds to tell everyone incorrectly
It could be worse. You could've been tortured to do 100 hours in flawed diamond and crappy pearl
👀
CLLLLEETTTTUUUUUSSSS
If I have a combo and don’t catch the next pokemon in the first throw I run away so I don’t lose the combo
Today i just got a shiny dragonite while looking for a shiny farfetch’d
I found and failed a random full odds shiny Magmar in my first playthrough of lets go
You mad this way harder on yourself than you needed to.
I tried getting a bulbasaur with the chain method.... 1k bulbs later I gave up. Took me 2 days of green farts
NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT
HOW DIDNT HE FIND A SHINY CHANCEY _ONCE_
Took me 21 hours to find one shiny nidoran
I love them
Hi Thumbus
Hello
@@Thumbus Thanks for saying hello back,
i had a catch combo of 221 and then the pokemon ran away...
I found a random shiny with out the shiny charm and without a catch combo it just showed up it was in mount moon and I think I was champion
Since the lets go games it seems like they've been releasing a lot of black sheeps.
If you sell the candies you get from the Pokemon you catch you fan get back enough money quickly
Foorggoorrr
My big bros first shiny in let's go was a Caterpie
Starme at 8?! Haha i got it hat 7
909 on the first hunt 😮 🫡
