      You don't need a friend. Save and make sure auto save is off before you go into raid, catch the pokemon, and then go to the bot, while trading it will not complete. So once you get the seed and know how far you have to go, you can restart your game and just start your skips

    You actually did a fantastic job explaining this and how to do it as quickly as possible. Props to Blaine still for covering it thoroughly first but the sheer amount of videos he had to make on it clearly showed how unprepared anyone could've been for this. It's difficult to explain a fairly complicated process in a simple manner. Also the process has since gotten a lot easier and faster over time so the timing of this video was very opportunistic being right after we figured out the best method and way about doing this.

    Thanks Austin! Worked the second time I tried! First time I messed up when doing the date skipping coz I had my menu open in the Pokemon center!
    For those who made this same mistake, re-verify your den again (without saving) to check your seed, especially if you manage to get one like mine where the shiny frame was only 213 days away. Most likely you would have only advanced one day (frame), and you can simply reset the date back to 01/01/2020, go into a battle and then time travel again! Currently resetting for shiny Gmax Corviknight! :)
    Thanks again for this video Austin! :)

    This worked flawlessly for me. I just did it for the first time today (a few minutes ago). I also was only 3 days away and was a little surprised. I've hatched a couple of shinies but this helps fill in some of the gaps of when shiny hunting. It doesn't take TOO long when you're actually doing it but seems longer than it actually is when watching it step by step in the video. I'm not sorry to admit I am selfish and simply caught the Pokemon and did not and will not be hosting a den. Haha. I'm just trying to slowly but surely build a shiny living dex of gen 8. Already have a normal living dex of gen 8, including the DLC. Thanks, Austin!

    • @kventinho
      @kventinho 4 года назад

      it's technically a faster soft resetting but instead of praying to the RNGesus you KNOW how far away of a soft reset it would be. I think this exploit is neat. you can just soft reset the shiny mon for yourself and capture the mon on your switch without doing the trading exploits to maintain the exclusivity. Not sure why Austin glossed over this. I know it's kind to spread the shiny gifts to others by hosting, but you can just not bother with it and keep a shiny for yourself.

    There's also a program called **Seed Searcher** that is like a complicated IV checker.
    But it can take hours of intense computer calculations to give you your seed. It's hands off, but your computer will not like you. And it can be faster to just use Dudubot. Then again, I've heard of many people giving up on Dudubot after hours of failure. It's the long sure thing vs the possibly short gamble
