I modded a gameboy advance (and a wii!) to get the rarest shiny pokemon! (jirachi?)

today I show off how I soldered wires to a GBA and a wii and then coordinated them in software to reset for a shiny jirachi!

Hey Anthony, would love to see Advent of Code Videos! Your AoC Python videos are by far the best on RUclips. Concise, well explained, high quality. You explain the code so well and show options, talk about time/space complexity if relevant, love it!! Can’t find anything close this year 😢. Thanks ❤

Epic. Thanks for sharing!

5:50 - has that macbook got ubuntu installed? Or is it a virtual machine?

[@Gaivs]

The host is called babibox2, so it very much looks like a vm :)

[@anthonywritescode]

the one pictured has Ubuntu installed on it. it's an old 2015 model

[@shadowviper95]

Are you able to carry it into Pokémon home?

[@anthonywritescode]

yep! ILCA fixed the filter that used to prevent it

[@godminete]

How many tries did it take?

[@anthonywritescode]

only about 2700!

At some point Anthony will write code to beat the game for him instead
