PokeTips what if you had a combo of 31 and another shiny showed up instead of the one your hunting and you throw the pokeball and it kicks out will you have to restart your combo?
It's also good to note that running away from your chain pokemon DOES NOT break the chain. So, if the pokemon breaks out of the first ball you can play it safe and run away instead of it potentially running away from you and breaking your chain. It's also a lot faster in some cases to just go into a building or a cave then back out to force spawn new pokemon if you have that option.
You can go finish your homework, graduate from high school, graduate from college, work a few years at a part time job, get your dream career, meet someone you like, date them for a year or so, propose to them, spend several months planning the wedding, get married, have a kid, buy a house, have another kid, watch them graduate high school, watch them graduate college, spend time with your grandkids, wait until you're about to die of old age after an incredible life, get your old switch out of sleep mode one last time, come back, catch a Caterpie... and it's still a combo!
I think it's gotta be wrong... AFTER getting max combo (31), I spent 8 hours trying to get shiny Vulpix. Found a shiny Chansey early on. I figured I'd seen probably 1400+ Vulpix, not including other pokemon. Never saw another shiny.
I was hunting fora shiny nidoran male all day when I first caught 31 one of them and got on my areodactyle I saw a shiny spearow then after the next combo of 31 I didn't find anything all day
After reaching a 31 catch combo, the next pokemon that spawns (which you.combo) it has a 1 in 273 chance of being shiny (including you have the shiny charm.and a lure) and then after it will go back to around 1/1041 until you catch another pokemon to increase your chain.
I’ve watched other shiny explanation videos trying to understand what I see Pokemon youtubers talking about but this is the first video I’ve seen where I actually feel like I understand everything I need to know to start hunting. The quality, narration, and content of your videos is amazing 👌
If you beat the elite 4, charizards and dragonites literally appear EVERYWHERE in the air, so they are just as common as a nidoran with a chain over 10.
Also great vid, It's nice to have the shiny hunting cleared up. I understood it as having to keep increasing your combo to make one spawn (like endlessly) so this cleared it up a lot, thanks
I think the chances of shiny Pokémon are now balanced and chaining is actually enjoyable since you don't have to battle the entire time and if you stumble upon a different Pokémon by accident, it doesn't break your chain.
I just bought the game because (4:42) of this specific reason. Running around and starting an encounter with every Ponyta in hopes to see a blue one was awful.
it took me 120 growlithe and 5 hours of hunt to get it, 80 magicarp and 3 hours, 140 caterpie and 5h hours and 13 hours and 400 lapras and i still got nothing so let me tell you that its not magical x'D its a whole lot of patience!
One day, i was trying to get a shiny caterpie. I was at 97 combo capture, and a caterpie decided to GO AWAY. So, my chain was broken, and no shinies. Plus; i dont have any shinies..
I was training my group in Cerulean cave by capturing Chanseys. My streak broke after 23 Chanseys and I was about to leave the cave to restock on stuff when a shiny Chansey appeared out of nowhere. Managed to capture it first try and felt so damn good about myself tbh xD The first shiny in any Pokemon game I ever caught. Can't wait to try getting some more (Maybe some shinies of Pokemon I actually like this time, lol)
its not as easy as it seems. I could only get a shiny after tons of effort and money and balls lol. Genuinely have only seen 1 shiny in 4 days of straight shiny hunting in this game
Kenneth Flaming Well dont get me wrong I believe the odds are 1 in 341 if you have 31 catch combo, but for some reason it kinda feels like 1 in 600 cause it took me a total of 6 hours to find my shiny growlithe lol
The best start to a shiny living dex! I just caught shiny ponyta, off to rapidash. That's pretty much the only reason y I want a let's go johto. Just to continue the shiny living dex
I have more tips to help you guys: - Look for the spawn areas that have more pokemons spawning at the same time, for example: You may enter the Cerulean Cave to farm exp, combos, etc, however, sometimes there isn't the best place to find shiny pokemons. Explore different areas if the first one is empty. - If you find a rare spawn pokemon in that area you may find different pokemons in another areas too, another example: Scyther is a little bit difficult to spawn but when it show up you may find rare spawns in other areas too like Snorlax in Cerulean Cave. Making combos in this areas may help you to find out more shiny pokemons that are hard to find even normal. I catched a machop with 14 cubone combos and after 36 cubones i found a shiny one! My chances were 1/273.
Hey I thought I’d confirm that if you do sacrifice your soul to the devil and fast forward 3 thousand years into the future that your chain will still be there. Absolutely unbelievable but I really miss my wife and kids.
I'd like to take a moment to say thank you for this guide. It has been a great help to me in starting to build a complete shiny Kanto Pokedex. I only have 3 so far so there's plenty more work to be done. You have more than earned me as a new subscriber. Keep up the awesome content!!!
Thanks so much!! I found a shiny Lapras, shiny Oddish, shiny Rattata, a shiny Weedle, and a shiny Vulpix now! Hunting for a shiny Rapidash next and this video is the whole reason why I could catch my shinies.
Last night I was attempting to find a Dratini so that I could start getting myself a Dragonite. While doing this I spent around 30 minutes with a lure just going back and forth on route 10 with no spawns of Dratini whatsoever. When it finally did spawn, it was shiny and I just about had a heart attack. I now have a lovely picture of the “1 Number Caught” shiny Dratini.
Waiting for you to do "I Caught Caterpie 100 Times in a Day and This is What Happened" (please forgive me, I've watched too much Luke TheNotable, not even any relevance to this topic)
i don't want to be rude or anything PokeTips but when you go to a different grass area then come back to the original area of grass the same pokemon will appear because they are saved into the ram just btw. yes i know this video is older i just thought i would let everyone know, so when shiny hunting you need to encounter pokemon then run away from them for new pokemon with new chances of shiny to appear.
thanks for the guide wanted to see if I was doing everything right I had a vulpix chain of 288 lol I pause your video to try out what u said and a shiny Chansey :) appeared instead of vulpix lol my guess is u have a shiny chance at any Pokemon that spawns in that area regardless of the Pokemon u may be chaining at the time, I was able to catch the shiny Chansey was so nervous that it would run away I had to use an ultra ball to catch it, so thanks again for the guide :)
Im seeing this shiny probability thrown around a lot but Im pretty sure it is wrong. After 11 pokemon caught it essentially gives one more check for a shiny so that shouldn't make it 4 times as likely to be a shiny from full odds. At 31 chain it should be 1/1020ish
@@Azumaville I know at first they went through a lot of different iterations, at one point saying you had to be over a 100 chain to have the best odds. I'm just saying the mathematics don't make sense for this video because in the past the odds have always increased on a consistent path.
So hey, what’s so special about shiny Pokémon? Are they more powerful than the regular type or do people just like them because of their different color palette? I googled it and all Google said was their special because they’re rare and they’re differently colored is that it? If so, I admire the people who find the patients to do this kind of stuff because I think shiny pokémon are cool, but I’m not going out of my way to get some I’m too impatient and the process is too tedious and frustrating I would know my cousin complains about it all the time. So unless they offer up more than just a different color, I don’t think I’m gonna be focusing too much on shiny Pokémon. Sorry if I made it about me by the way, was not trying to.
Thank you so much for this! I love your content and this got me a shiny pikachu then I was going to buy more pokeballs and then found a charizard! When I bought the pokeballs I was going to route 17 to find a shiny eevee but then I found a shiny ponyta I also wanted that but I wanted eevee and I only used a normal lure and no catch combo! Now I am seeking after shiny psyduck I think I am on a streak off 14 maybe. So yeah I love your content and this really helped this is my first shinys and I got them today!
You can catch a bunch of pokemon. graduate from school. graduate from middle school. graduate from college. get a job. get a life. have a kid. win the lottery and buy a new home. have another kid. watch your children graduate. spend time with grandkids. commit mass genocide. turn on your switch from sleep mode. catch a rattata. and its still a combo! (my ver. note this is all a joke)
its not about the combo number. You have the same chance of encountering a shiny at 31 as you do at 150. Once you hit 31, stop running into the gastly and just look for the shiny
Charliehawkscreech Yeah, but i still didn't found one, despite playing many hours. Do i have to stay at the same floor or can the shiny appear in each floor?
Just got the game yesterday and I have some newbie questions. 1) what is a shiny Pokémon and why would I want one? 2) What are the Pokémon with the swirling things going around them? TIA
I had a 178 catch combo for Magikarp, didn't get a shiny, and then I went to do something and my little brother took the switch and played Mario -_- I hate my life.
I’m glad that I saw this video. Now that I have, I use the method of flying on your Pokémon ALL THE TIME. I got Shiny Nidoran Male VERY fast. So yeah, I’m glad I watched this 😄
Thank you so much! I was wondering if flying above, or not encountering any for a while would ruin my combo, so I appreciate this! I also got my combo on Growlithe all the way to 120 because I didn't know I only needed 31, haha. I have a LOT of candies, though! I am Liking and Subscribing, sir!
Yea, my Drozee hunt took 6 hours, followed by a full ods Chansey 15 mins after I caught the Drozee. My Oddish happened at 50. So it's been all over for me.
@@PokeTips Why do you only focus on pinning these vague positive comments when there are many more comments with criticism? Are you one of those people who only believes in positivity and even criticism is negative? If so, then you are the definition of toxic like a lot of other Poketubers. The amount of vague positive comments you've pinned is egotistical.
I watched this vid and thank you because it helped so much because since I haven’t played a Pokémon game in a while, I have never shiny hunted before. When I tried this out with just a simple caterpie, I screamed when I saw the shiny caterpie. Again thank you so much for making a good this guide, you are the best.
No I'm not, I only calculate it with the shiny charm for the 1 in 273 stat. You can find the tables I used here - www.serebii.net/letsgopikachueevee/catchcombo.shtml
PokeTips Your stats are still wrong because your not using variable change calculation. What you did was a gambler’s fallacy. The odds will always be 1in 4096. The multiplier only re-rolls basically improving the amount of Pokémon spawning. So with a multiplier of 2 a Pokémon counts a two rolls at 1 in 4096. Which is not the same as 2 in 4096.
Wow that comment sounded repetitive. It is such a small difference in the numbers that it doesn’t really affect the odds calculated the way that he did
Thanks for this when I’m watching people shiny hunt in let’s go they say the get a shiny so fast and it seems so easy and I’m over here hunting in sword in shield for hours and hours and still get nothing hopefully I can finally get a shiny
I just want to say that you can put your switch in sleep mode over night without breaking your combo.
This is a great tip!
Yes that's true. I shiny hunted and put my switch to sleep instead of quitting the application. Didn't break the combo
Yes ive been doing this for days lol
Yup took me 3 days but I got my shiny dratini this way.
PokeTips what if you had a combo of 31 and another shiny showed up instead of the one your hunting and you throw the pokeball and it kicks out will you have to restart your combo?
basically:
do combos (you can stay there without capturing after 31 combo)
use lures
shiny charm
And use a flying ride pokemon
It's also good to note that running away from your chain pokemon DOES NOT break the chain. So, if the pokemon breaks out of the first ball you can play it safe and run away instead of it potentially running away from you and breaking your chain. It's also a lot faster in some cases to just go into a building or a cave then back out to force spawn new pokemon if you have that option.

That’s amazing
I was never really into shiny hunting in Pokemon since it was boring, but in Let's Go, it's somewhat fun
Mouto mood
Mhm
same! this is the first pokemon game ive played where im so determined to shiny hunt.
I swear it doesnt feel like 1/315 odds :(
i know but you should count every pokemon you encounter and add it to a calculator and you'll see that its true

@@jessiejones7870 i encountered a shiny vulpix as 245 in a chain with about 30 other normal vulpix that spawned along the way but I didnt catch

I have more tips to help you guys:
- Look for the spawn areas that have more pokemons spawning at the same time, for example: You may enter the Cerulean Cave to farm exp, combos, etc, however, sometimes there isn't the best place to find shiny pokemons. Explore different areas if the first one is empty.
- If you find a rare spawn pokemon in that area you may find different pokemons in another areas too, another example: Scyther is a little bit difficult to spawn but when it show up you may find rare spawns in other areas too like Snorlax in Cerulean Cave.
Making combos in this areas may help you to find out more shiny pokemons that are hard to find even normal. I catched a machop with 14 cubone combos and after 36 cubones i found a shiny one!
My chances were 1/273.

Now I am seeking after shiny psyduck I think I am on a streak off 14 maybe. So yeah I love your content and this really helped this is my first shinys and I got them today!
I catch a shiny Magikarp without any combo it was first encounter 😁😁
...
I literally couldn't catch one with a 200 combo AHHHHHHH
Great tips awesome production :)
Guess my luck is bad, I’m at over 2500 weedle now with 1/315 odds and still can’t find a shiny, it’s been like 15+ hours
I couple minutes ago I got a 13 combo of oddish
You can catch a bunch of pokemon.
graduate from school.
graduate from middle school.
graduate from college.
get a job.
get a life.
have a kid.
win the lottery and buy a new home.
have another kid.
watch your children graduate.
spend time with grandkids.
commit mass genocide.
turn on your switch from sleep mode.
catch a rattata.
and its still a combo!
(my ver. note this is all a joke)
I caught a shiny pidgey with a catch combo of only 6! Epic video!
I didn't got a shiny Gastly after 150 combos :-/
its not about the combo number. You have the same chance of encountering a shiny at 31 as you do at 150. Once you hit 31, stop running into the gastly and just look for the shiny
Charliehawkscreech yeperino
*get
It's based off luck boi
Charliehawkscreech Yeah, but i still didn't found one, despite playing many hours. Do i have to stay at the same floor or can the shiny appear in each floor?
Thanks for the tips
It really helped!!
I have a 31 combo on ponyta, but I have been shiny hunting it for 14 hours straight! I counted and I have already seen 2000+ ponyta 😂
Just got the game yesterday and I have some newbie questions. 1) what is a shiny Pokémon and why would I want one? 2) What are the Pokémon with the swirling things going around them? TIA
Mew, A Not Okay Potato thank you!
I had a 178 catch combo for Magikarp, didn't get a shiny, and then I went to do something and my little brother took the switch and played Mario -_- I hate my life.
I changed 250 in 2 days and still havent gotten a shiny magikarp
@Emo Boxer gaming i dont know who you calling a noob...i give out free smoke on wifi battles🤷🏽♂️
@Emo Boxer gaming wtf dude I don't think u get it lol
my first ever encounter was a shiny rattata
I stumbled on a shiny magnemite, I named him Marmite and he's on my team
@Drake Gonzalez R.i.p.
Me: sees this
Also me: *high pitched screaming* AAAAAAAAAA! YES!!!!
I just got a full odds shiny Graveler while looking for chansey in cerulean cave... just after the full odds shiny pidgey. Am i lucky or what.
I found a shiny at the start of the game it was a shiny pidgey
I'm hunting Magmemite now! Is there a way to hunt the Charmander line other than soft resetting?
Yes! Charmander spawns on the route right before mt moon as a rare spawn.
@@PokeTips on the map it says there is no habitat tho?
@@PokeTips can I find eeves on lets go eevee to get the three eeveelutions
I think its route 3 thats before mt moon it was my first encounter there
Not all Pokemon show up on the Pokedex map, especially if they are considered "rare"! It's there :)
I’m glad that I saw this video. Now that I have, I use the method of flying on your Pokémon ALL THE TIME. I got Shiny Nidoran Male VERY fast. So yeah, I’m glad I watched this 😄
I lost a shiny growlithe to a 'sister switched out the game so Pokémon closed' in lgp
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I Found a Shiny while watching your video at 6:52 Thank you so much
“ The normal rate of finding a shiny Pokémon is 1 in 4096.”
Dude I found 3 random shinys.
Really informative video, man. Thanks!
When you have a 271 combo and still no shiny
Yeap same here!! 😒😒😒
Thank you this really helped! 👍
i have a combo of 167 and still cant find one :(
I feel ur pain
Thank you so much! I was wondering if flying above, or not encountering any for a while would ruin my combo, so I appreciate this! I also got my combo on Growlithe all the way to 120 because I didn't know I only needed 31, haha. I have a LOT of candies, though! I am Liking and Subscribing, sir!
I got a combo of 300 doduo’s with nothing :,)
Gotta love that RNG
Yea, my Drozee hunt took 6 hours, followed by a full ods Chansey 15 mins after I caught the Drozee. My Oddish happened at 50. So it's been all over for me.
I found a random doduo when I was trying to get a ponyta.
@@Pogal exactly the same happened to me :(
This is actually really useful for me!
Grate video
Thank you!
Cheese grate
mmm cheese
@@PokeTips Why do you only focus on pinning these vague positive comments when there are many more comments with criticism? Are you one of those people who only believes in positivity and even criticism is negative? If so, then you are the definition of toxic like a lot of other Poketubers. The amount of vague positive comments you've pinned is egotistical.
I watched this vid and thank you because it helped so much because since I haven’t played a Pokémon game in a while, I have never shiny hunted before. When I tried this out with just a simple caterpie, I screamed when I saw the shiny caterpie. Again thank you so much for making a good this guide, you are the best.
I got a Combo of 95, and still didn't find Shiny...
Really thanks to the video :D
Your calculations are wrong , your calculating as if you also have shiny charm
No I'm not, I only calculate it with the shiny charm for the 1 in 273 stat. You can find the tables I used here - www.serebii.net/letsgopikachueevee/catchcombo.shtml
PokeTips Your stats are still wrong because your not using variable change calculation. What you did was a gambler’s fallacy. The odds will always be 1in 4096. The multiplier only re-rolls basically improving the amount of Pokémon spawning. So with a multiplier of 2 a Pokémon counts a two rolls at 1 in 4096. Which is not the same as 2 in 4096.
TheBaldr but the difference it makes is so small it doesn’t make enough of a difference
Wow that comment sounded repetitive. It is such a small difference in the numbers that it doesn’t really affect the odds calculated the way that he did
@@PokeTips Serrebi is wrong.
Yay! Thx! Ima get some shiny’s now!
Perfect Guide- thanks!
Thanks for this when I’m watching people shiny hunt in let’s go they say the get a shiny so fast and it seems so easy and I’m over here hunting in sword in shield for hours and hours and still get nothing hopefully I can finally get a shiny
