  • Shiny Hunt Starts: 4:45 (Sorry for the long intro, I was chatty at the start! Clearly foreshadowing the length of this hunt)
    Hunt Started: 1/10/2020
    Hunt Finished: 2/17/2020
    #3 is finally, FINALLY here!! Shiny Charmander after over 34k is hopefully going to be my longest hunt of this DTQ. After 20k SR's of triple hunting, I added a 4th game to the mix on my SP. Luckily I didn’t get charmander on that game, the footage would have been rough 😅
    Charmander:
    1. Charmander (duh): 34,004 SRs (2/17/2020)
    Shoutout to Tsushimon for his unique hunt, I couldnt handle how slowly the SRs were going! • Live! Shiny Charmander...

    I‘ve recently started watching your hunts (new sub), and I already really like your videos. In my opinion, you’re right up there with the bigger names, like Soniks, ShinyCollector, and Absol. You are totally underrated, and Gen 3 is my favorite! I’ll absolutely be coming back to watch your vids over and over. Good luck on whatever hunts you’re doing :)

    You probably already know, but isn't gen 3 very bad for soft resetting due to the way the RNG works?

    • @tarjay-lx
      @tarjay-lx 3 месяца назад

      That's only really for the hoenn games, emerald's rng seeding is broken and for ruby and sapphire, you'll always get the same rng seed if you have a dead battery.
      For fr/lg the seed is based on the number of frames between when you launch/soft-reset and when you press start/a to go into the main menu from the title screen (as well as which buttons you press before the main menu opens)
