What about some Legendary hunts? In their original games? Lire Suicune via Crystal, Groudon/Kyorge via Ruby/Sapphire, etc? In the older Gen games, it's always a rush to find shinies with full odds.
Wow, your fortune was truly ludicrous throughout this quest. Especially that first encounter Metagross and full odds Bagon; absolutely mad, very well done on all of these sparkling differently-coloured pixelated virtual pets.
Hey man, you gave me shiny luck! 7:43, I knew I had to watch a pseudo vid since almost all are dragons, ended my four and a half sandwich drought for roaring moon! As soon as the garchomp sparkled I saw my own green dragon. Love ya stuff!! ❤
This is a common misconception. Square shinies in the wild in sword and shield are practically guaranteed. If you wanna learn more, go watch my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail.
@@JFlash727 of course, your videos are interesting and awesome, and your voice is really nice to listen to as well! Just finished rewatching the star sparkle one too lmao
Double comment: On the topic of Pseudo Shiny Pokemon, I might the first ever person on the planet to hatch 2 shiny dreepy back to back! A week after the game came out! I still have both them in my Shield copy and both have the same date, just wish I had more ways to fully prove it but I FLIPPED OUTTTT!!
i accidentally got a shiny dragonite once by accident and another one which i didn’t catch this time while hunting shiny squirtle (I did NOT get that squirtle 😭😭🙏🙏)
@@ecIipsiothat's so cool tbh catching a shiny which u didn't hunt for nor expecting it to appear has got be the best feeling :) hope some day u catch that 2nd random shiny dragonite again
So, little fun fact for you here, I'm pretty sure that Metagross is a static encounter. Due to static encounters using true random in SWSH, static encounters are actually NOT affected by the shiny charm (which is why mons like the regis are all full-odds hunts in that game). What that means is that your Metagross was not just a first encounter shiny, but actually a FULL-ODDS first encounter shiny... with a mark!
@@ScubaShark8857 That is incorrect. Strong spawn pokemon are generated like any normal wild spawn, and aren’t actually static pokemon. They are affected by shiny charm! You’ll know if a shiny Pokemon is a static encounter if it has star sparkles more commonly than squares! (I.e. Regis, motostoke gym Pokemon, impidimp mushrooms, etc.) In this case, this metagross will always have squares.
I’m actually hunting on a cartridge of said romhack with my gameboy advance sp. But most importantly Metagross is my favorite Pokémon and shiny hunting a Pokémon makes me feel more bonded too them. So being able to go through a whole Pokémon game with my favorite Pokémon as my starter especially as a shiny makes me really happy. Or at least it would if only he would just shine already 🥲
The thing that happened to you with Bagon ALSO happened to me with Shinx, at a chain of ZERO to boot! Only thing you gad happen differently was, i didn't get the zoom in on the trainer.
That's my clip! I tried going for the world record of Shinies in one day using 1/200 event outbreaks (specifically Shinx because of my friends), Shiny Charm and Herba Mystica and in the same day, I ended up finding that triple Shiny spawn that day and finished catching an insane 358 of the things!! As far as I'm aware, it's the world record for one singular person. (Not a community.) The clip is there to prove the point that SV hunting isn't much of a challenge compared to the older games. A first encounter 1/200+ event outbreak overworld Shiny Beldum isn't as exciting as a 1/1366 in battle only Shiny Metagross, you know? Although for me, a Shiny is a Shiny and you cannot stop me from catching the same Shinies over and over again. 149 Sandshrew line Shinies with many various and harder methods, 1,397 Shinx and 103 Rellor with their event outbreaks as of writing. :D
one time i got a dragonite without a cc in lets go, but i forgot to save then headed straight into the mewtwo fight, team was underleveled and restarted, only to discover that i lost my dragonite.
Flygon is still a pseudo legendary in my heart. But the only true shiny pseudo legendaries i have are: goodra, hisuian goodra, Metagross (first sos encounter) and i could get a shiny dragapult and dragonite if i evolved my drakloak and dragonair. What surprises me is that hydrapple and kingdra aren't pseudo legendaries. I can kinda get one because its already apart of a strange evolution path.
How do you make your thumbnails? Which software do you use to edit the animations of the Pokemons when you catch a new one and you put it in it's silhouette?
I feel like flygon deserves to be a pseudo, it has the same typing as garchomp so they could have made it a faster, less bulky garchomp, but sadly he's stuck as a pseudo pseudo legendary
you forgot the shiny tyranitar and hydreigon from pokemon violet and scarlet!! and the salamence from anceint scarlet :D good luck catching those i hope
Those Pokémon are not Pseudos! They are NOT part of a 3 stage evolution, and have a base stat total that is LESS than 600. Their BST is only 570, not 600.
Like a week ago I was completing my scarlet pokedex, since dreepy it's a Violet exclusive I transfered my dragapult from sword and breed it with a foreign ditto cuz why not, then I went afk for a bit to came back to a basket full of eggs and in my second egg i got a shiny dreepy, couldn't be happier with the son of my first dragapult of my first playtrhough of sword (sorry for bad England it's not my first language)
This just aint true chief. Square shinies in the wild in Sword and Shield are common. Check out my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail to learn why.
@@ShadowTheHedgehog1-s3eYeah. I hope next Psuedo is not another Dragon, having that six gens in a row has gotten exhausting. Plus then it lets us get more casual dragons like Axew since they wouldn't be chained to "can't have them TOO early, their evolutions are super strong!"
i’m cooler then a shiny psudeo legendary cuz i’m subbed
Im pinning this
@@JFlash727 thanks
Me too
Oh same
Big bro! You’re WAY too cool!
single encounter marked shiny metagross has got to be the craziest find ive ever seen on youtube ngl
Plus I think it was a square sparked one witch is rarer than the normal star sparked one
@@Privatebean9183in the wild is rarer the star spark
FIRST ENCOUNTER METAGORSS IS ABSURD
I know right, literally one of my craziest shinies ever
WITH A MARK?!?!?!?!
he probably has shiny charm so it doesnt count
@@imyellowteeth4691 I do have the charm, but that doesn't invalidate a 1/1365 encounter on the first try. Lets be positive instead of dismissive here!
wow thanks for the spoiler man 👍

I like shiny hunting, but is it wrong to get Urba Mystica in unethical ways but still hunt the Pokémon legitimately. I don’t get as crazy.

@@jeffreygiraku3900 great idea!
@@JFlash727 Thanks man!
ok
First encounter Metagross put me through an existential crisis when you initially got it.
Gotta Love Catching these Shinys without needing Scarlet & Violet for most of them. THIS is shiny hunting
Agreed 100 percent

RUclipsrs make this stuff seem so easy, but I didn't even know abt the shiny hunting methods of Pokemon Pearl
Dude this was a banger video I love how you incorporated all the switch titles and the metagross first encounter was crazy, very worth the effort
Thanks ice wolf!
What is crazy is that ALL of the sword/shield shinies were square sparkles which is incredibly rare to get on all of them!
This is a common misconception. Square shinies in the wild in sword and shield are practically guaranteed. If you wanna learn more, go watch my video with the Virizion on the thumbnail.
You forgot the Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon, Pseudowoodo, the third stage evolved form of Sudowoodo. It's literally in the name!!
Goomy is baby and you can't change my mind 🥺
I actually like the term Powerhouse Pokémon more. It sounds... punchier, I guess? I dunno. I just like it. Also, damn, that first encounter Metagross!
also, powerhouse is more self-explanatory than pseudo-legendary. i think both sound cool though
What a pleasant surprise! Didn't even get a notification and found this in my feed, sweet!
Thanks for watching!
@@JFlash727 only just finished, but man, what an insane hunt! Big congrats on the whole haul!
@@AllegedlyHuman Thanks! :)
really good video !! i love the variety of the hunts in this 🙏
Jflash posting made my day fr
Bro i’ve been hunting wooloo for 30+ hours and u be getting shinies in 1-30mins 🙏
Bro really used music from dragon driftway and twisted mansion from Mariokart 8. ( Love the vid )
Goated tracks what can I say
@@JFlash727 yea it’s fire
Man, rewatching for the second time (so third watch), and the reverence and borderline fear in your voice as you get your Metagross is *amazing*
What a fan, I appreciate the rewatch :)
@@JFlash727 of course, your videos are interesting and awesome, and your voice is really nice to listen to as well! Just finished rewatching the star sparkle one too lmao
Getting so many of the legendary birds while hunting Dragonite was hilarious
Love listening to your vids as background music! The same time you found your Metagross I actually found my Shiny Buneary :))!
I appreciate the support! :)

Lets go! Been waiting for this all morning, for the whole…30 minutes ive been awake.
I subscribed because you use luxury balls to catch your shiny Pokemon and that's my signature ball too lol but I also really liked the video
i accidentally got a shiny dragonite once by accident and another one which i didn’t catch this time while hunting shiny squirtle (I did NOT get that squirtle 😭😭🙏🙏)

Great Video Lad and My boi Aggron and Hax. Deserves to be pseudo
This was a really fun challenge and seeing your luck is just insane
Love the use of Mario Galaxy music! My favorite game OST
I love how Metagross looks in SwSh, excellent choice of hunt
Finally someone posted Pokémon sword and shield again
subscribed for the first encounter shiny Metagross
Currently soft resetting for a shiny beldum in Pokémon unbound. Over 5000 and still going.
Why hunt in a romhack? Honestly any shiny hunting that’s not on original hardware is a waste of time
@@scrublord9505it’s his preference
@scrublord9505 I disagree, i think if you're having fun, its all good.

I wish noivern was pseudo cause its shiny is so cool! Also well done for getting every shiny pseudo!😎
Amazing vid mate keep it up
dragonite is my absolute favorite pokemon. just wish the shiny was better lol
love this video
I like to think dragonites shiny is a reference to the dragon from Pete's dragon lol
if only it kept the same pink colour like dratini and dragonair
This may sound dumb, but what is "Soft resetting"?
Bro that luck with the shiny metagross is absolutely insane I’ve hunted so much in sword and shield but I’ve never gotten even close to that lucky
8:44 He said it! He said the name of the game!
LOL
really good video man keep up the good work
Thanks! :)
5:35 _why is there 3 shiny shinx on the screen_
That’d be thanks to my friend who found 3 at the same time during an event outbreak.

Congratulations! You officially have more Plot Armor than Justin
And thanks Galaxy for spoiling most of video during last nights stream.
Nice video dude!
gen 9 so easy i understand the challenge
do you remap your controls so you can reset with one joycon?
Yeah i do! Didn't think anyone would notice. I make the y-button the home button, and the + button the capture button! I use the right joycon.
The first encounter Metagross is the coolest shiny I've seen EVER
one time i got a dragonite without a cc in lets go, but i forgot to save then headed straight into the mewtwo fight, team was underleveled and restarted, only to discover that i lost my dragonite.
I did a soft reset for shiny alpha garchomp for 3 DAYS
Flygon is still a pseudo legendary in my heart.
But the only true shiny pseudo legendaries i have are: goodra, hisuian goodra, Metagross (first sos encounter) and i could get a shiny dragapult and dragonite if i evolved my drakloak and dragonair.
What surprises me is that hydrapple and kingdra aren't pseudo legendaries. I can kinda get one because its already apart of a strange evolution path.
I love metagross I mean look at the big dude
I forgot u can multiple of the legend birds and not just stuck with the static ones
How do you make your thumbnails? Which software do you use to edit the animations of the Pokemons when you catch a new one and you put it in it's silhouette?
I use both Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere Pro! Lots of practice using both.
18:28 thats wild
LMAO
2:48 was basically aDrive's first encounter palkia clip. IYKYK
HAHA YEAH
That Bagon luck though mannnn, for some reason I always struggled with the 40 chain hunts
I subscribed to you. That was my good deed for the day!
im so deadass the same thing with your non shiny bagon batch into shiny happened for me but instead i got a shiny beldum

real
