You share a birthday with my brother. He passed away early last year. It's kind of dumb, but it makes me a little happy knowing you guys are the same age. Makes me imagine him still being here to play pokemon with.
I got kinda late to the party but happy birthday Matt!!🎉🎉🎉 I know you probably won't read this but it's because of you I started shiny hunting and I just wanted to thank you for introducing me to such an amazing hobbie and also wanted to ,of course, congratulate you on your birthday :D. ( I don't want to be that guy but I'm not native so sorry for bad english )
The destiny mark always makes me feel like that the Pokemon that has the mark is your partner Pokemon, because it’s title is “The chosen one” and that always reminds me of Ash being you and Pikachu being the chosen one. Glad I got to get a Sneasel with that mark since it’s one of my favourite pokemon and it really does feel like my partner
Happy birthday!! Your content has inspired me to shiny hunt a lot more and I love every video you put out. I hope your birthday was great! I remember hunting an Iron Valiant on my birthday and it didn't have the destiny mark on it lmao, though neither did any of the other guys I caught that day. I'm super happy your birthday shiny managed to have it first try! 🎉
This was such a fun stream! Loved seeing that Falinks so quickly, the epic medicham confusion, and then an onslaught of flutter mane. Another great vid!
I'm surprised to see that this was posted one hour ago. I haven't watched your content since the sleep stream video and spent the last hour catching up. Also, happy birthday,
So cool fact about birthday's in pokemon games: My birthday is on a leap day (29th of February), and so whenever I set it on any game, usually I'm met with the disappointing fact that I won't get any birthday bonuses for 3 out of 4 years. However, in Pokémon games, if you set your birthday to 2/29, you get unique dialogue from the NPC saying "come back on your birthday for a reward, or on the 28th whenever your day isn't present on a year!". And whenever it is the 28th of February on those years, the NPCs acknowledge the different date saying "We know it isn't really your birthday, but we still wanted to celebrate with you!. It's attention to small details like that that make me love certain videogames just a bit more (ACNH also handle leap day birthdays the same way FYI) More interestingly for me though, this meant that I am one of the few people who could get a Destiny Mark pokémon/shiny that *doesn't* really share my birthday, since they were caught on the 28th of February, not the 29th. And I think that's awesome :D
I also decided to shiny hunt on my birthday, but this was not knowing that birthdays give the chosen one marks, and I got a shiny vivillon with that mark! What's more, I checked it at the size checker out of curiosity months later, and it was also the tiniest!! I didn't even have a tiny sandwich going!
Hey Absol! I know it's still not your birthday, but I want you to know I was shiny hunting Lunala in max raids today, and I found a shiny absol! I immediately thought of you and your videos when I got it! Still hunting for Lunala, but your videos are amazing and help me keep my spirits up! Thanks man! And happy (late) Birthday!
Happy birthday! Our birthdays are 5 days apart, I'm born on the 3'rd which makes this parasocial relationship just a little bit closer and a lot bit cooler
Happy birthday Matt! I wish you were more well known in the community, because man, I wish there was more content out there like yours, especially the way you put out these videos
wow your reaction to that was so unlike how you react to shinies, i don't think i've ever seen you jump back so much that you shook your whole camera lol Happy Birthday Matt Brandl
happy belated birthday! i also did a shiny destiny mark hunt on my birthday (8/23) and ended up with four shinies without a mark (veluza, noivern, roaring moon, and gible) and then with only a couple minutes left before the day rolled over i found a shiny skuntank while trying to just get a regular pink tatsugiri with the mark... and that skuntank had the mark. not what i was aiming to get, but i'm happy i got a destiny mark shiny nonetheless ^^
I Shiny hunted on my birthday too! I was so hyped when I got a destiny mark Shiny Sandygast. I'd wanted to hunt a Sandygast for years but never gotten around to it, so I was very happy my lil black sand pile was destined for me. Maybe I'll hunt again when my birthday rolls around again.
happy birthday matt! ever since ive started watching your videos for around a year or so and you heavily influenced me to start shiny hunting! (92 shinys so far in legends arceus + violet! also 94 if you include cafe remix lol) wishing the best for you and maybe cal zone too! (ps: if you ever shiny hunt smoliv that be cool cause ive been drawing them for 228 days straight and adore them)
I wish I had this kind of luck! I went for Tarountula on my birthday and only ended up getting one and it didn't have any marks. I did find a shiny LeChonk while setting up for it though, so there's a silver lining.
Big relate. It's my 20th birthday today (Sept 10th). I was trying for a shiny Destiny Mark Zorua earlier today. Got a Dusk mark one and a Maschiff. Have a good one, Matt
Follow-up Update: It's midnight and I ended up with 6 Birthday Shinies: XX the Maschiff, 2D the Dozy Zorua, Aquamarine the Destiny-Marked Noibat, Twin T the Dawn-Marked Zweilous, Golden Hour the Sableye, all in Scarlet, and Scoob the Houndour, that I got before dinner in PoGo.
Happy birth You, Mr. Blogs, have inspired me to hunt marked shinies (and before that, shinies in general) so it’s only appropriate for me to be mark shiny hunting the moment u posted this vid! :D Also, I have a shiny falinks, and its name is peanutbutter :)
Congrats on the shiny marked Falinks, Matt! Now I want to shiny hunt Tsareena (or Bounsweet, rather) on my birthday in December 😁 I would hunt Stoutland, Charizard or Dragonite, but I already have all three as shinies anyway and Stoutland is sadly not in S&V.
Lucky! Meanwhile, I did the same hunt for my favourite shiny a few times throughout my birthday this year and found 7 shiny Oricorio's before getting one with the destiny mark. Got it, at least! 😄 About half an hour left of the day, got a Kommo-o with the destiny mark too, but the shiny didn't have it. Ah well!
I never knew about this mark, I might have to go for a shiny Goomy on my birthday in hopes that I get this mark. Got about a month to wait though so for now I stick to "farming" Dream Balls in the auction house until the DLC releases.
Yes!!! I played hard on my birthday and the FIRST shiny I found had the destiny mark! My Shiny Dragonite (was caught a Dratini) in a Moon Ball! Lunar's gonna be coming with me to the dlc in a few days
Fun! I did this for my birthday last month too. I wanted a shiny dragon because dragons are cool and stuff. Found a shiny Goomy, Gabite, and Zweilous before getting my destiny-marked Zweilous! Was hunting for Roaring Moon, but I got a shiny marked dragon, so mission accomplished!
I remember shiny hunting one of my favorite pokemon on my birthday this year! Seviper. It took a few sandwiches and a few shiny Stunky, but I caught one! I'm still super happy I have it.
i have about 17 shinies from the lechonk line and i’ve been tryna catch one in every balll. on my birthday i hunted for a shiny mark one to be my master ball lechonk but it wasn’t meant to be this year.. the legend of ‘Master the chosen one’ will be completed next year
When i saw how excited Matt was when he got the mark on falinks i cant help but smile
Yeah I was on the toilet and was reading this comment when he found it what a weird deal

Good Morning. Even the Hammer says Happy Birthday
Happy birthday Absol!! Your content is always so great and a comfort watch, keep on being awesome. Shiny Pawmo was a HUGE find.
Wow, been watching you for years and happy birthday! Congrats on these shinies!
Man, August 8th is such a cool birthday! I wish I had a birthday as cool as that one!
Late happy birthday Matt! I’ve been a fan for around 3 years now and I love every video! Here for many more!!!
Been hunting Falinks for a few days no luck. Started the video and The Boys shined!
Happy birthday matt! i always smile watching you, i hope you smiled lots on your birthday :)
Blessed with shiny luck on your birthday 🙏
This was such a fun stream! Loved seeing that Falinks so quickly, the epic medicham confusion, and then an onslaught of flutter mane. Another great vid!
This was such a fun stream to watch live, dude! Glad I could bless the Falinx with Beco! Haha! Happy birthday Matt Brandl indeed!
I'm surprised to see that this was posted one hour ago. I haven't watched your content since the sleep stream video and spent the last hour catching up.
Also, happy birthday,
Heyyyyyy Birthday buddy! Mines on the 8th too, so cool you found it first go!
664 and strong happy bday Absol!!!!!!!!!!

Happy birthday! I got a Dratini and Impidimp this year on mine, both shiny and chosen ones
Happy Birthday=3 It is never too late to have a wonderful after-birthday week=DThank you for all your content=3
Happy belated birthday! That insanely quick first phase (with the mark too) was really damn cool, by the way.
As an August 9th i salute you as a fellow Augustian and to your shiny destiny luck
Happy birthday! Thank you for always putting out such fun content, I can tell you enjoy making it! Hope this year is just as fun~🎉🎉🎉😊

Happy Belated Birthday, congrats on the shiny !

Happy Birthday Matt Brandl
Oh, wow, your birthday is four days after mine. That's pretty close. I wish I knew about the Destiny Mark before then.
I had no idea it was your birthday. Happy Late Birthday Absol!

Its my dad's birthday today, and I just got done celebrating it. Happy (definitely not a month late) birthday :D ! !
I Shiny hunted on my birthday too! I was so hyped when I got a destiny mark Shiny Sandygast. I'd wanted to hunt a Sandygast for years but never gotten around to it, so I was very happy my lil black sand pile was destined for me. Maybe I'll hunt again when my birthday rolls around again.
Happy Birthday Matt Brandl
I love how only the pokemon community could result in a man excitedly exclaiming "Ooohh only 13 minutes left in the sandwich!!"
This is what they call "birthday magic". "They" being me, anyway.
Happy birthday cant wait to do this for mine in november!
Happy birthday Matt! 🥳
Love the destiny mark. Got myself a shiny iron valliant with one (used a shiny sandwich)
Great video! I'll never get tired of how chaotic the stream overlays get. Cant wait for the next video!
Was good seeing you earlier this week! Will come next time with multiple 3DSes
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon God tier! I'm there every Sunday afternoon. I'll keep an eye out! Will have a special rock dried by then
Happy late birthday! I also did a hunt on my birthday for a shiny with this mark and got a shiny iron thorns with it
happy birthday matt! ever since ive started watching your videos for around a year or so and you heavily influenced me to start shiny hunting! (92 shinys so far in legends arceus + violet! also 94 if you include cafe remix lol) wishing the best for you and maybe cal zone too! (ps: if you ever shiny hunt smoliv that be cool cause ive been drawing them for 228 days straight and adore them)
As someone named Mark this title scared me for a second
I wish I had this kind of luck! I went for Tarountula on my birthday and only ended up getting one and it didn't have any marks. I did find a shiny LeChonk while setting up for it though, so there's a silver lining.
craziest moments in absolblogspokemon history, you were meant to meet your joes that day
Keep up the amazing videos man !!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT congratulations
Happy belated birthday! I didnt even think about bacwards tranferring the mark to SwSh/BDSP!
Edit: first phase finishing the hunt was crazy!!
Big relate. It's my 20th birthday today (Sept 10th). I was trying for a shiny Destiny Mark Zorua earlier today. Got a Dusk mark one and a Maschiff. Have a good one, Matt
Update: got a shiny Noibat with the Destiny Mark. Aquamarine the Chosen One!
Follow-up Update: It's midnight and I ended up with 6 Birthday Shinies: XX the Maschiff, 2D the Dozy Zorua, Aquamarine the Destiny-Marked Noibat, Twin T the Dawn-Marked Zweilous, Golden Hour the Sableye, all in Scarlet, and Scoob the Houndour, that I got before dinner in PoGo.
Dude that was actual destiny with that
Happy birth
You, Mr. Blogs, have inspired me to hunt marked shinies (and before that, shinies in general) so it’s only appropriate for me to be mark shiny hunting the moment u posted this vid! :D
Also, I have a shiny falinks, and its name is peanutbutter :)
Congrats on the shiny marked Falinks, Matt! Now I want to shiny hunt Tsareena (or Bounsweet, rather) on my birthday in December 😁
