About the shiny swap thing (16:43), there is another condition for the new Pokémon to be shiny as well: it needs to have the same shiny odds as the previous shiny Pokémon to be a guaranteed shiny. If, for some reason, the odds of the two species differ, the new Pokémon won't be shiny (unless you have crazy luck).
So if it was a shiny chansey than that would’ve just been lucky right since the chansey rate is different but everything else during this event has same shiny rate
I’m pretty sure during the event all event pokemon have been equalized to the same shiny odds. (As long as they were advertised to be featured in the event)
17:25 That was absolutely insane, congrats Nick!!! Also the Solrock/Lunatone spawns after GoFest was an easter egg cause Solgaleo and Lunala are coming to the game soon!!
So awesome to see you back and fully immersed in the PoGo life Nick, can genuinely see the excitement and it's infectious! Congrats on a great and succesful event and video for us!
Duuuuude, I had the same Tom magic with shinies he *didn't want* in Germany (Chansey and Rufflet). 🤔 I think this is a new power we need to test with him 😂
I’m glad you had a great day! I had to work during some of GO Fest but still had fun! I got my first Ultra Beasts (Pheromosa and Xurkitree), caught four shinies including a Munna, and caught a hundo Chansey (my second hundo ever!)!
i stumbled across your channel a week ago and really enjoy the style of video and the content. just wanted to say i started playing pokemon go for the first time in august and ive learned a lot from your videos so far its wild so thank you. much love 💜
I'm glad you had a good wrap up event Nick! It's awesome to see how happy you've been lately along with hanging out with the community and others RUclipsrs. My wife and I had a pretty good wrap up event as well! Can't wait for more events.
I want to enjoy these events but there’s so much happening at once, deadlines because of the two-hour changes, raid Stress because I’m missing incense spawns. Forgetting eggs. Forgetting research tasks. Extended incense meant I locked myself out of the daily incense all day.
That is what auto catchers and planning ahead of time is for man.. literally most content creators made a breakdown of things you should do to prep for the event, this is a big deal for doing things right. Have a checklist of things to do beforehand, put alarms on.. just be prepared, no reason to overwhelmed unless you are not prepared.
This event seemed a lot more slow paced than usual for events like this. It's all about knowing what's happening all day and planning accordingly. If you don't live in New Zealand/Australia, you have a big advantage as you have some time to see exactly what's happening throughout the entire day.
Most adults do not have 8 hours to play on a Saturday would be nice to have it span into sunday. 4 hours each day would be excellent, first Event ever coming back since 2016 and felt like I missed out
I totally agree that it’s stressful. Research, eggs, tasks, collecting, shiny checking, catching and raids! I only saw about the 7 km eggs on YT after the event was over for me and I’m so disappointed! I guessed it would be half distance for egg hatches so had saved up a whole stack of 10 and 12 km eggs. It’s just too much to keep track of. I did have fun but nine shinies for eight hours?
17:20 Nick is the BEST Pokemon Master in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE! That trick he pulled off is INSANELY CLUTCH, only true Pokemon Masters can come up with a strategy like that
You def popped off! Clutch with the Shelmet turning into a Munna. I’m usually to scared to try that. But will definitely do for a future event. Solid summer of events, looking forward to the Season of Light to say the least
Great video! That Munna shiny was epic. Don’t forget to finish the silent schemes Rocket special research before the 1st September to get the field notes.
I prepped, had space, caught well over 1000 Pokémon, caught enough shinies to warrant no complaints yet, the only thing I was hyped about was finally getting a shiny lunatone. I'm not normally the type to complain about what and how many shinies I do and don't get, however I was feeling a bit meh about the entire.day even though over the 3 days catching more shines that both previous global fests and both kanto and johto tours combined.
Professor Williow comes back from being missing for ages and comes back a totally changed man. * Skips all the dialog* No time professor I'm still busy catching pokemon!!
Was really excited to try and hear the loud offensive preachers that were there the entire time😂 also I was so happy to meet you. Just as cool in person as you are in the videos. Glad I took the trip up to pier 39 and got to show you my proudest Pokémon🤙🏼
Hey! Congratulations on all of the shinies. Most of the time I clean up on those for a community day. You hit all the shinies I wanted and I only caught a rampardos that I didn’t have before. See you on the next one
PoGO Fest Finale was insane for me as well!! I got 2 shiny event pikachu, 2 shiny Axew, 2/3 shiny monke, a shiny Karablast, and I farmed the heck out of Pheromosa (my favorite Ultra Beast). This was such a good event, but I wish I had been able to have a full, proper day to enjoy it and had planned for it a bit better. If I had known it was gonna be this good, I would have prepared so much more! GGs Nick, glad you got so many shinies this time!~
Now I know where all the shiny went! LOL I only got 10 on the day! Congratulations! Omanyte, Chansey, Klink, Cradily, Electabuzz x2, Smipour, Panpour, Rampados, Unown G. I was missing a few of these so I was pretty excited about the dex entries. I hope they keep this up with GO Fest next year.
Had a great day catching shinies and raiding with a group in our local park. Got quite a few I really wanted, lucky traded one of the monkeys. All in all a great day. Glad your day was great too.
I really enjoyed this video. Looks like a lot of fun. Husband and I are both retired and have played almost since the beginning. I’ll be 70 in October and love your channel. 😊
Congrats on your lucky day! I had pretty good luck as well, got some fun new shinies like Pansear, Munna, and even the Swirlix with 15 minutes to go. And as a bonus picked up a shiny Lunatone after. It was a great wrap up.
We enjoyed all the global Go Fest opportunities. Even though Saturday I was lower on the shiny count than normal, we still had so much fun being out in the community. The only complaint - when you play in an area with 8 pokestops. And they decide to change the possible rewards every two hours. Those of us without a million pokestops can’t benefit from the new rewards. They need to refresh the actual pokestop tasks every two hours so we all,have a fair advantage of the new rewards. I love the idea, but many can’t benefit with limited stops.
First three shinies in this video are literally the three shinies I got in the 2 hours I was able to play, just swap the kricketot and the pansage. Pretty good haul for that amount of time.
Congrats on your lucky day and reaching level 50. I had a great day as well until I crossed paths with some members of our "community" who were condescending. I play in a state Botanical Garden where I also volunteer as I am retired. Young guys playing asked if we had caught any shinies. I said yes just ahead on the path. He informed me that it won't be shiny if he goes there. I am level 45 but let it go. Later when he was nearby and on his phone, he told his friend he was watching the elderly play pokemon go and laughed. Really put a damper on my day.
I just realised the lunatones and Solrock spawns at the end were intentional if you listened to professer Willow he illudes to it in the research the bit where he wakes up from his nap! Who is guilty of not reading everything he says? 🤭🤚
Apologies for the drive by call-out from the car I was in by the warf. It was a surprise to meet you from afar. Hope you had a great and safe return home. Henley
I also got 22 shiny and I got most of the ones I was looking for, which was really nice. Also got a hundo Pheromosa (2nd raid) and a hundo Zurkitree (first try), so all in all it was a great day. Was a bit sad though to see so few players out. In the past years GO Fests there were several from the community out playing and also lots of other players. Kids walking around playing with friends in groups. This year I didn't see many at all. A few more during the event earlier this summer, but yesterday I met one from the community and saw perhaps three other players. Oh well, maybe more will play in the future.

Wow 22 shinies!! That's a big haul right there! Played all day in ny but i only got three 😬 and hunted munna like crazy but unlucky! It's great that u had fun!
Dude I was just at Pier 39 a week before this on vacation from FL. Watched a guy get pooped on by a seagull on the EXACT bench you guys were chillin near at the start of the video lmao
I tried the same thing with the change on the hour. Except mine went from shiny Combee to shiny Chikorita...can't win then all I guess 😂 Still got 19 shinies, so no other complaints really! Great day!
Hey Nick. First congrats on getting all the shinies. I had a super fun Global Go Fest experience and it was cool to see you in another part of the country having a fun time to. Second, don't forget about completing your Team Go Rocket seasonal research so you can get another to rocket boss radar!!!! I put a reminder in my calendar and I hope I'm not too late!! (Linked the vid you asked about it too) ruclips.net/video/z3jgYX5Jtbg/видео.html
I was gonna test if the hour thing with shinies would work! Glad to see it does! Although I checked mine when I thought it was 1 hour not 2hour periods
Tom is so chill with you nabbing all his shinies! Hope he got some too ❤
Now that's a great buddy. 👍
His enthusiasm is lit!
I swear tom is such a BROTHER the hype he gets for your luck is insane. Such a supportive friend.
22:58 "They must love me, like who else cares about lunatone?" got me dying
💀me to
It's the sun & moon hint
i love lunatone and solrock
17:26 I actually pogged out loud with no one else around me. That is INSANE.
What a gamer.

Tom is the hero and best friend we all need, not the one we deserve. So genuinely excited for every one of your shinies and I love him for it.
17:25 That was absolutely insane, congrats Nick!!! Also the Solrock/Lunatone spawns after GoFest was an easter egg cause Solgaleo and Lunala are coming to the game soon!!
2 months later….
So awesome to see you back and fully immersed in the PoGo life Nick, can genuinely see the excitement and it's infectious! Congrats on a great and succesful event and video for us!
So glad y’all got the whole squad together! ✨
That shiny Shelmet to shiny Munna clip was INSANE! You have some balls dude!
PLEASEEEEEEE the car horn and your reaction to it at 20:35. Absolute gold.
Right
20:34 I laughed so hard
Also congrats for all your shinies !!
Duuuuude, I had the same Tom magic with shinies he *didn't want* in Germany (Chansey and Rufflet). 🤔 I think this is a new power we need to test with him 😂
I’m very salty about not getting a shiny axew, but i guess maybe next time
@@Happonyx probably a future Comm Day poke
@@texaslatina26 its is cooler to have it when its rare
@@queensdaensa9413 I understand that. But I am just hinting that it will probably be a future poke for Comm day like next summer
I ran from a shiny Foongus and saw the sparkles for a split second then clicked on it as fast as I could lmao
SAME
Yep, damn thing is nearly identical, and with glaring sun it makes it even harder to see.
Yup, made my brother pull a u-turn so I could get it. It was still there thankfully!
Same lmfao
My brother did the same thing
I love the energy Tom brings to the video, what a legend
I’m glad you had a great day! I had to work during some of GO Fest but still had fun! I got my first Ultra Beasts (Pheromosa and Xurkitree), caught four shinies including a Munna, and caught a hundo Chansey (my second hundo ever!)!
i stumbled across your channel a week ago and really enjoy the style of video and the content. just wanted to say i started playing pokemon go for the first time in august and ive learned a lot from your videos so far its wild so thank you. much love 💜
I love watching you nick. You mean so much to my experience playing the game. Thank you for delivering great videos !!
I'm glad you had a good wrap up event Nick! It's awesome to see how happy you've been lately along with hanging out with the community and others RUclipsrs. My wife and I had a pretty good wrap up event as well! Can't wait for more events.
Wow! What a great video from a great event! 17:26 blew my mind! Bravo! 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
Not only a great vid, but to see everyone hyped for each other’s catches was so amazing. Glad it was a good one!
That Munna catch was wild! What a cool crew too. Love the chill vibes.
I want to enjoy these events but there’s so much happening at once, deadlines because of the two-hour changes, raid Stress because I’m missing incense spawns. Forgetting eggs. Forgetting research tasks. Extended incense meant I locked myself out of the daily incense all day.

Yeah there was definitely A LOT going on. Can get a bit overwhelming for more casual players. I ended up skipping the daily for the same reason.
I totally agree that it’s stressful. Research, eggs, tasks, collecting, shiny checking, catching and raids! I only saw about the 7 km eggs on YT after the event was over for me and I’m so disappointed!

Congrats Nick for the shiny haul. Good to see you had a good time.
That munna moment was ACTUALLY insane! Manifested the heck outta that 😄😄
I love how JT always knows when something awesome is about to happen 😂
You def popped off! Clutch with the Shelmet turning into a Munna. I’m usually to scared to try that. But will definitely do for a future event. Solid summer of events, looking forward to the Season of Light to say the least
it's awesome that you caught 22! That's exactly how many I caught!! My first was hitmontop as well. Thank you for all you do Nick. much love
My second catch of the finale go fest was a nundo unknown
got two shiny chansey’s in a row during the event… was so crazy !
I barely got any shiny anything yesterday ❤️🩹 even with incense and luring up every stop I passed.
Bruhhhh I went out of my way to hunt for a shiny Chansey after trading my old shiny Chansey to a friend in Finland, didn't find a single one
I played with two accounts and clicked on the same chansey and they were shiny on both accounts. 1/64 shiny though but still pretty insane
That first shiny Munna catch was friggin crazy dude! Sick trick! I'm gonna be trying to do this lol
I missed this go fest ! But watching u getting this lucky with shines makes me happy too
The BEST Vlog I’ve seen in a while. Congratulations man!
Idk if shiny munna was released right at the beginning of that hour, but if so, you are the first person to get shiny munna.
I was on the porch right behind you when you found the shiny Munna haha, it was nice getting to meet you!
Seeing them reunite is always hilarious 😂
Don’t forget to finish your rocket research!! ❤️
Dude your a pokemon go magician!!!!
That Shelmet to Munna switch was off the hook!
Great to see you having a wonderful time! Nice haul on those shiny checks!
The fast forwarding through the research talk and the huge sigh at the end.... RELATABLE!! 🤣🤣🤣👍👍
Man I felt lucky getting 6 shinies total the whole day. Entire Go Fest weekend first time around I got a total of 2 Burmy.
this channel got me back into Pokemon Go, and got me to exercise more therefore, so thank you!
Great video! That Munna shiny was epic. Don’t forget to finish the silent schemes Rocket special research before the 1st September to get the field notes.

Congrats for one million subscriber!!!
“Got something to share with the class nick” i fuggin love tom bro hes awesome😭😭😭
Trainer Tips was Popping off for real, Congrats dude
Professor Williow comes back from being missing for ages and comes back a totally changed man.
* Skips all the dialog*
No time professor I'm still busy catching pokemon!!
I low key like the red, purple, and green color red tasks for each UB. Was just nice to see something other than the orange tasks
Was really excited to try and hear the loud offensive preachers that were there the entire time😂 also I was so happy to meet you. Just as cool in person as you are in the videos. Glad I took the trip up to pier 39 and got to show you my proudest Pokémon🤙🏼
I’m surprised no one recognizes them in public especially during the event
THAT was the best Professor Willow reading you've ever done! Nice!
Awww you were in the city! Would have been fun to go in. Nice shinnies!
Hey! Congratulations on all of the shinies. Most of the time I clean up on those for a community day. You hit all the shinies I wanted and I only caught a rampardos that I didn’t have before.
See you on the next one
Thats insaneeeeee. Craziest thing I’ve seen in GO, ever. Epic experiment and it paid off!!
Congratulations on 1 million, I love your vids
PoGO Fest Finale was insane for me as well!! I got 2 shiny event pikachu, 2 shiny Axew, 2/3 shiny monke, a shiny Karablast, and I farmed the heck out of Pheromosa (my favorite Ultra Beast).

Getting the chance to go to Seattle for gofest really did make this summer a memorable one!
I really enjoyed this video. Looks like a lot of fun. Husband and I are both retired and have played almost since the beginning. I’ll be 70 in October and love your channel. 😊
Yoo!! Loved the vid. Me and my Friend got to meet you too!! Keep up the good content!!
I caught two shiny pikachus fairly close to eachother. Up until go fest 2022 I had not gotten a shiny pikachu at all.
that shelmet/munna moment LITERALLY made me grab my face in excitement for u!! couldnt believe it, crazy amazin vid again thank u nick
Congrats on your lucky day! I had pretty good luck as well, got some fun new shinies like Pansear, Munna, and even the Swirlix with 15 minutes to go. And as a bonus picked up a shiny Lunatone after. It was a great wrap up.
I love how the instant reaction to the car honking is to scream
Yooo that shiny munna clip was awesome!
Hey, it was super cool meeting you yesterday and the video was sick!

Legit I was Tom in this last event!! The start was painful for me, 1 shiny in 3 hours!! Looks like an awesome shiny day for ya.
First three shinies in this video are literally the three shinies I got in the 2 hours I was able to play, just swap the kricketot and the pansage. Pretty good haul for that amount of time.
Me at 20:35, wishing that a specific group of my friends / family was around me: "See?! NOOOObody likes country music!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i only got 4 shinies in the entire event, so it's great to see that shinies do exist lol
the munna pronunciation😂😂 thank you, I completely agree and everyone loves to tell me I'm wrong
Congrats on your lucky day and reaching level 50. I had a great day as well until I crossed paths with some members of our "community" who were condescending.

I just realised the lunatones and Solrock spawns at the end were intentional if you listened to professer Willow he illudes to it in the research the bit where he wakes up from his nap! Who is guilty of not reading everything he says? 🤭🤚
I’ve never been this unlucky, only got two shinys and barely got into any raids
Only got 4 casually playing. I was happy & I’m happy for you Nick
Apologies for the drive by call-out from the car I was in by the warf. It was a surprise to meet you from afar. Hope you had a great and safe return home. Henley
20:34 dude the face and the perfectly cut scream
I also got 22 shiny and I got most of the ones I was looking for, which was really nice. Also got a hundo Pheromosa (2nd raid) and a hundo Zurkitree (first try), so all in all it was a great day.

Hey my first encounter was also Shiny Hitmontop! weird coincidence
Nick: Please talk to Tom about catching those Legendary Birds in the Daily Incense!!!
Who are you sir with your shinies, lol GZ I always love the events coming through for people
So jealous of your first shiny hitmontop! Congrats.
6:56 the shiny hitmonchan in the background looks nice
hi nick glad you had fun ,,,,,did TOM look like ATLAS holding up the planet but in this case fishermans warf sign lol
Fun seeing you get a lot of good stuff for once

Still got 19 shinies, so no other complaints really! Great day!
I did it with a magmar and got a electrabuzz😭
Bro I literally only got 2 shinies
Next time you should let someone else check the new spawn for you so you don't have to waste the first shiny if the new pokemon is not what you want
Now I wish I went up to SF for this event! I'm only 40min away, but usually end up playing at a local university. Could have seen the legend there!!!
Was the A radiant reunion free
Hey Nick. First congrats on getting all the shinies. I had a super fun Global Go Fest experience and it was cool to see you in another part of the country having a fun time to.
Second, don't forget about completing your Team Go Rocket seasonal research so you can get another to rocket boss radar!!!! I put a reminder in my calendar and I hope I'm not too late!!
(Linked the vid you asked about it too)
ruclips.net/video/z3jgYX5Jtbg/видео.html
7:16 WOW I really wish I had known about the eggs...
Same here! I had no idea and I feel like I missed so many potential shiny I didn't get at all 🤦🏾♂️
Just finished watching the whole thing and GG!!! I love how you got your first Munna 😍😍😍✨💖✨🎉🎉🎉🎉 Such a beautiful shiny that I hope to get some day😅
I was gonna test if the hour thing with shinies would work! Glad to see it does! Although I checked mine when I thought it was 1 hour not 2hour periods
