I hunted shiny legendaries by myself because I had no friends. I can confirm that the AI in SwSh is abysmal. Definitely cost me many wins because AI stubid.
@@octopikmin3590 I know for sure that if any mon have Acupressure, it's gonna spam that and NOTHING else. I made a list of mon that only human should play, so when I hunt alone I know to avoid them.
@@AsassinoSilenziosomight want to add Drifblim to that list. Recently had an AI trainer use one, and it consistently went for will-o-wisp. Target poisoned? Let's burn it! Target already burnt?

I gotten the all the shiny legendarys in DA and one thing I’ve learned is to take the worst Pokémon so the AI can’t suck, sometimes it’s better to pick the path of least resistance vs the better Pokémon for the end, and wide guard is king. Also if u are playing solo turning off animations can save several minutes each run. Happy hunting
thank you 😊 took a while but it was fun. A lot of shinys along the way as well. Best thing is to do it on the side while you play/do something else. Luck plays a factor in many aspects outside shiny odds but there is a skill aspect to it that I enjoy once you learn the move sets and best routes since those aren’t random. Best of luck 😊
God, seeing this video rejuvinates me. I've been trying to find Shiny Giratina in 2023. But its painful since its hard finding teammates. But seeing fun YT content on it is motivating! Maybe I'll give it a go again, see if there's more I can do to keep hunting efficiently! EDIT: I've been casually hunting Giratina since October and finally got it a month later! Throwing good shiny luck to you, passerby reader!
Doing this for a while did teach me that the most doable solo DA (that I tried, at least) was Pheromosa, since it’s squishy enough to die pretty easily no matter what kind of horrible decisions your AIs make. It has a REALLY pretty shiny too, but sadly I’ve yet to get it :( (I’ve only gotten 5 total shinies from these, but tbf 3 of them were without the shiny charm)
Causally doing only Latias raids during the pandemic, had no clue what the odds were to finally find a shiny latias on my 100th encounter then would find shiny Xurkitree 5 encounters later. The odds in this game are certainly something else
@@CudChewingCattlesorry to tell you this now, but whether a wormhole pokemon will be shiny is decided when you enter the wormhole, meaning soft resetting does nothing.
@@epilepticsquid8856 That's wrong lol, that's only true for normal Pokemon, not the legendaries and ultrabeasts. I would know because I hunted almost all of them in their shiny forms and there are literally thousands of videos on RUclips of people softresetting for legendaries in USUM.
I once got a shiny moltres in around... 3-5 raids, causually hunting for it. Surprised me too. It was the day after galarian moltres ran into me on accident and i caught it in a premier ball, along with my moltres
@@kapikapisun 😭😭 I'm not even a shiny hunter, man. I'm just a guy who really likes the way Suicune looks with a blue mane. *That's right.* I put myself through the pain of completing the entire Galar Dex for just *ONE (TWO if Gen 9 ever allows the inclusion of Ultra Beasts)* Shiny Pokemon. And what makes it worse, I was already tired from making the mistake of completing *Another* Pokedex, just a week prior to coming back to Sword.
I am attempting Lunala right now, and with a 4x dark weakness, as long as I cultivate getting a dark move for myself, I can pretty reliably beat it. And goes much quicker than with people since animations are off. And even then, a lost den isn’t truly a loss because the other 3 mons could still be shiny
I've done a hunt for Guzzlord what feels like Ages ago now in DAs, and it was rough. I had the Shiny Charm and got like 6 shinies i think before getting my glorious Cheeto covered Alien. Definitely would only recommend it for Ultra Beasts/Pokemon you can currently only hunt in it if you don't have a New model 3Ds to hunt them in USUM, because without that the reset times suck lmao, so at least you'd be doing something. Also I did a few DAs with my mom and managed to actually do 1 group DA ever irl. Regardless of the shiny odds or even if I got really lucky I wouldn't recommend it as a hunting method rather then a "do this with friends for a bit and see if you get something cool out of it". Basically the best way to do it
After getting ever Legendary from Max adventures, I found doing them by yourself was usually the way to go. Tapu lele was the shortest at 3 raids, then there was Latias at 345 encounters. Xerneas was a nightmare though in comparison though it only took 340. Zygarde also wasn’t too bad at 27.
Do you have any tips for doing them solo? I've been planning on doing the Max adventures for about a year but they've always seemed too inconsistent solo to hunt for legendaries.
@@pr1nc3y25 I've recently just started doing them solo again after all the old discords for this mode being long dead. The best tip I've found is to always select the worst Pokemon so your AI teammates can't.
@pr1nc3y25fight one easy legendary over and over and over so you can stock up on dynite Ore. once you have a load of them, start doing them for your desired legendary, and once you get a good path, just close and reset your game on the end screen if none of them are shiny. The path will stay the exact same and you can do it over and over
I've been hunting my boi Giratina for 3 years. 0 phases, 0 shinies. Have not found a single shiny from Dynamax Adventures at all. I'm almost convinced that my copy of Shield is broken. Edit: i hit the 4 year mark. Not even one. Yes, I have Shiny Charm. I bred a pair of perfect shiny Eevees in SS before getting a 1/100 shiny in SwSh. I swear I have a world record or something.
6:20 spread moves don’t spread out the damage equally, they deal either regular damage when used against a single target and 75% damage when used against any more than one target Also when I beat zygarde I just skipped phase 2 by killing it before the end of the turn with triple axel hitmontop and a froslass
Obviously there are some exceptions like Zygarde and Kyogre, but most legendaries are easy enough to hunt for solo imo. The AI will repeat their picks exactly on each soft reset provided that your picks don't change, and with a couple resets you can optimise a consistent route if you think there are good enough picks overall in that route. Imo it's worth soft resetting and paying the ore tax if you find a good, consistent route, and playing solo with no animations saves sooo much time. And if you're hunting something in a rare ball then you might as well find a good route since you'll need to soft reset anyway if you want to keep that ball.
I remember when I found out raquaza was in the dens and I instantly went hunting for it, I didn’t care for the shiny but that raquaza was a 1st try shiny, never happier
I just want to say this...I have a bit more than half of all Dyna adventure pokemon and I've done all without real people (With the exclusion of joining certain peoples adventures to get exclusives) And might I say. Holy shit. My sanity is gone
Oh, I know the AGONY of fighting Kyogre with only ai... d o n 't His origin pulse is op, with absurd power and AOE damage, that paired with the mental aptitude of the computer players (or lack thereof) it's downright impossible... And extremely painful! Please, _please,_ play with actual people! So you don't have to deal with the suffering I know too well... It's _much_ better than dealing with defective toasters... On a side note, my favorite shiny you found is between Doublade and Fraxure, and Rayquaza, but he always gets all the love, and I thought that we had to have some variety, and give others a chance in the spotlight!
Ah yes. Dynamax Adventuring. I remember when I played through this for so long. Getting all of the legendaries in that game. Even the ones I could only get if I had Shield. It was fun but also struggling when you have to get that specific legendary pokemon. But it was worth it!
i originally planned to shiny hunt here but that basically never happened. So ive returned to this game recently. This video was interesting to see it was still quite recent!
Shinies in this video from DA in order: Cofagrigas, Bellosom, Beartic, Mr. Mime, Lilligant, Glalie, Raichu, Wheezing (Galar Form), Perrserker, Rayquaza, Swampert, Doublade, Fraxure, Manetric. Total Shinies: 14 Regular Shinies: 13 Legendary Shinies: 1
My shiny Zygarde came from my one and only solo run that was result of my internet cutting out momentarily. A true blessing in disguise. Initially I was bummed because the outage caused me to miss out on an Alolan Marowak. Since it ends the battle without the chance to catch. But, the end result more than made up for it.
Amazing video, but on the rng/difficulty side of the adventures; I only do da's solo, got like 500 hours in them. I usually get like a 80-90% winrate on moderate difficulty bosses and almost always win on easy ones like the tapus and ultra beasts, cant be bothered attempting zyguarde solo lmaoo. you can get very consistent with winning even with bad rng.
the sub button lighting up is what got me to sub. never seen your vid's before. was going to sub at end of the video anyway. but knowing that made me do it right away. love the vid
I did that too with suicuine and i still reget it. It's my favorite out of the legendary beasts. But i feel this. I went for tapu lele and she was a pain. Her sister tapu fini was nicer. I already had an event shiny tapu koko and i couldn't be bothered for tapu bulu
I played this a bunch when it was new. Only got one shiny, a Heliolisk. But i decided to boot it up the other day and I got a Ho-oh after only a few hours!
I sunk HUNDREDS of hours into Shield. Most of it in Dynamax Adventures. I've found 1 shiny legendary, an Yveltal found one night when I couldn't sleep and decided to do one adventure... I was never so happy to struggle to sleep in my life
We should have Tera raid adventures for the upcoming part 2 of the dlc so other legendaries can return and maybe special mythical events and making them shiny huntable (not even a word) for a limited time.
I shiny hunted Groudon for a week, doing like 5-6 raids a day. Finally got it and transferred it over to Violet. Thinking of doing Lunala or Dialga/Palkia next
As i learned literally yesterday, the rental Mienshao with Wide Guard is apparently a very easy way to cheese the Zygarde fight, because one of my teammates spammed Wide Guard and we got ridiculously lucky, Zygarde used Land's Wrath like 5 of 6 times in a row and Wide Guard negated ALL of its damage.
So, I have a small thing to complain about. Around the 13:23 mark in the video, you can hear a Legends Arceus shiny sound, I was playing legends while watching this video and it took me five minutes to realize that the video made the sound. I am deeply upset.
i got all my shiny legends in solo das and my list is: zygarde, kyogre, groudon, reshiram, latias tapu bulu, suicune, entei, raikou, ho-oh, lugia, rayquaza, dialga, creselia, palkia, uxie, mesprit, azelf, tornadus, thundurus, xerneas, tapu koko, pheromosa, necrozma and stakataka and the ones missing are: a second zygarde, a second thundurus, kyurem, zekrom, solgaleo, lunala, tapu fini, tapu lele, katana, buzzwhole, nihilego, xurkitree, celesteela and guzzlord so i know how hard it is to get them all but when you know all the little tricks and every thing you need to know about this mini game its super easy
I've gotten some cool shinies off DA but it's just sad when comparing it to the hunting in USUM. I did a dual hunt on US and Shield and by the time I was almost to odds (1292/1365) I was only through (33/100) for DA even though I was clearing it consistently
Im sitting at around 100 runs without any shiny 😢 i was wondering if they patched the chance... But this video gives me hope. I guess ill start a new try on weekend. Cheers mate😊
@@stevolenzing no nothing. I bought an other expansion pass for my wife's game and im doing two-player runs. For her game the rate seems pretty much like the 1/25. I guess my game file is just super unlucky. And i didn't find a shiny legendary on neither of the switches. So all i can say is keep grinding boys and girls 😐
@@pvestar23 Damn, that sucks. I'm not lucky either, although I found some shinies after a couple hundred runs, I only managed to get Lugia as a legendary shiny. Meanwhile I bought UM and started wormhole hunting again and already found 3 shiny legendaries. So I will use DAs only for the Tapus, Solgaleo, Lunala and Necrozma. It just takes way too long for me in Shield to get my legendaries
The only issue with shiny hunting scarlet and violet is the shiny locked bs now I’m playing bdsp and have to start sword dlc dynamax adventures to get shinies and I also want non shinies as well like Galarian birds both forms.
I know the feeling of losing sanity. I have been doing solo for so long have all of gen one legends took me a 175 for aticuno. And so far i am almost at a 100 raid for raikou
DA may be the best way to hunt for shinies however, as someone who has no shiny charm, AND im looking for that shiny kyurem this is gonna take a few days to do, so wish me luck!
Years ago I lost my legendary Pokémon collection so I played around 90 hours catching every legendary for my collection and got around 3-4 shinies base odds
@@cabclint I would think so too! Only problem is I want to get the shiny charm first and have to catch some more Pokemon for that. Im at 300 so still some ways to go. Not sure if you would want to wait so long :)
I remember grinding this as well as while back and might even come back to it soon. I think I've gotten roughly half of the shiny legendaries as well as lot of other shinies, including sometimes 2 or 3 of the same shiny pokemon. On one occasion I also got 2 shinies in the same run, Skunktank and Thunderus. I took the Thunderus
Not too bad! I wasn't keeping track, but in an average amount of attempts, I've gotten 4 shinies, Piloswine, Charmeleon, Uxie, and Arourus (also a Regieleki in like 6 resets, and that's all 5 I've ever gotten in gen 8)
Are people still playing DA? I got back onto it a few months ago but figured everyone was playing Legends Arceus or S/V by now 😅. I'll have top hop back onto Shield!
The dunamax adventures, while being inefficient compared to SV in shiny hunting, is still relevant though because its one of the few places to shiny hunt legendaries effectively. 100 hours for a shiny legendary isnt as bad as a soft reseting for one roll in a 1/1300 odds. Ive seen players soft reset for some legendaries for months. Its even more relevant now because SV legendarues are all shiny locked. Including new dlc.
I remember after like 4 months of playing whenever I could with just the AI (I didn’t know I could que online 😭) I finally got my shiny zyguard and I know the shiny rates are pretty high but still I wanted to scream and dance
I was just playing violet and this video popped on autoplay, so I watched it and thought to myself ¨It would be nice to play Shield and get a random shiny from de DA¨. Thanks to you I am the happy owner of Mango the shiny Ho-oh. That I got in 5 tries :0000.
i started hunting with raid dens again last week with a friend of mine. first raid den after roughly 1.5 years. Shiny Yvental. i screamed. First shiny legendary from dens. he is now called T-bone
I tried to get shiny ray for about 20-30 hours. Then i lost my save file. Im back in the dmax adventures cave with rayquaza as my first raid. But I dont have shiny charm, so im working on catching everything again now 😅
When I made a new account to do a rerun of Sword to complete my main account pokedex I did one dynamax adventure to get a legendary to carry me through the game, and somehow managed to beat Zygarde in one attempt with only bots.
I cannot believe I found this video! It’s so relatable. I spent probably the same amount of time 100+ hours looking for a shiny Rayquaza. FINALLY found one. I was done with the game after that. I wanted a shiny Ho-Oh and Raikou though

you do a amazing job, Trails thanks for the videos
Here's a challenge. Catch 1000 pokemon in Dynamax Adventures.
I'm currently doing this and currently 210 pokemon in.
Not looking forward to re-attemping hunting Solgaleo. The AI just can't fathom Full Metal Body blocking stat drops...
The guy who got timed out on stream and decides to attack his teammates is a villain.
I happened to get a Cryogonal with Levitate during the run-up to Zygarde and destroyed with 3 or 4 hits from Cryogonal. It was too hysterical 🤣
19:02 to 19:17
Me when i was hunting starter fenniken in X. Took me 5 months 23700ish encounters
I’m so excited to watch another man get cool different colored animals!
So, I have a small thing to complain about. Around the 13:23 mark in the video, you can hear a Legends Arceus shiny sound, I was playing legends while watching this video and it took me five minutes to realize that the video made the sound. I am deeply upset.
I JUST FOUND A SHINY SUICUNE AS I WAS WATCHING THIS DYNAMAX AFVENTURES
I kid you not, one day I did some random dynamax adventure for the fun of it, and on the FIRST attempt I got a shiny Tapu Koko
i got all my shiny legends in solo das and my list is: zygarde, kyogre, groudon, reshiram, latias tapu bulu, suicune, entei, raikou, ho-oh, lugia, rayquaza, dialga, creselia, palkia, uxie, mesprit, azelf, tornadus, thundurus, xerneas, tapu koko, pheromosa, necrozma and stakataka
and the ones missing are: a second zygarde, a second thundurus, kyurem, zekrom, solgaleo, lunala, tapu fini, tapu lele, katana, buzzwhole, nihilego, xurkitree, celesteela and guzzlord
so i know how hard it is to get them all but when you know all the little tricks and every thing you need to know about this mini game its super easy
This is an accurate depiction of DAs lmao
I've gotten some cool shinies off DA but it's just sad when comparing it to the hunting in USUM. I did a dual hunt on US and Shield and by the time I was almost to odds (1292/1365) I was only through (33/100) for DA even though I was clearing it consistently
Im sitting at around 100 runs without any shiny 😢 i was wondering if they patched the chance... But this video gives me hope. I guess ill start a new try on weekend. Cheers mate😊
Did you find something?
@@stevolenzing no nothing. I bought an other expansion pass for my wife's game and im doing two-player runs. For her game the rate seems pretty much like the 1/25. I guess my game file is just super unlucky. And i didn't find a shiny legendary on neither of the switches.
So all i can say is keep grinding boys and girls 😐
@@pvestar23 Damn, that sucks. I'm not lucky either, although I found some shinies after a couple hundred runs, I only managed to get Lugia as a legendary shiny. Meanwhile I bought UM and started wormhole hunting again and already found 3 shiny legendaries. So I will use DAs only for the Tapus, Solgaleo, Lunala and Necrozma. It just takes way too long for me in Shield to get my legendaries
Whoa the Like button doesn't glow but the Subscribe button did! Cool!
The only issue with shiny hunting scarlet and violet is the shiny locked bs now I’m playing bdsp and have to start sword dlc dynamax adventures to get shinies and I also want non shinies as well like Galarian birds both forms.
bracelet is the reason the nohorny meme exists
I know the feeling of losing sanity. I have been doing solo for so long have all of gen one legends took me a 175 for aticuno. And so far i am almost at a 100 raid for raikou
Your vids>any other video (your vids are the best)
DA may be the best way to hunt for shinies however, as someone who has no shiny charm, AND im looking for that shiny kyurem this is gonna take a few days to do, so wish me luck!
I've hunted a ton of legendaries in DA including Kyogre but Zygarde is just rage inducing. The AI is completely useless and randoms aren't much better
Years ago I lost my legendary Pokémon collection so I played around 90 hours catching every legendary for my collection and got around 3-4 shinies base odds
I have done adventures for days with shiny charm. Never pulled a single shiny from there.
Crazy? I was Crazy once…
-Said by a very wise man
Crazy? I was crazy once... They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. Rats make me cra/y
Hoping that gen 9 has an actually good method to hunt the legendaries cause I am never doing DAs I refuse to do that horrid method
bad news bud
:(
Now that we cant get shiny legends in SV, Im thinking about getting the Sword DLCs to try the adventures :D
I'm willing to do DAs if you need an extra person! I gave up on it due to the AI, but with a group, it couldn't be THAT bad, right?
@@cabclint I would think so too! Only problem is I want to get the shiny charm first and have to catch some more Pokemon for that. Im at 300 so still some ways to go. Not sure if you would want to wait so long :)
@@MaxiJrpgI am also willing to hunt with you guys
@@celticjude Okay I guess as soon as I have the shiny charm Ill write here and see who still wants to try it :)
I remember grinding this as well as while back and might even come back to it soon.
I think I've gotten roughly half of the shiny legendaries as well as lot of other shinies, including sometimes 2 or 3 of the same shiny pokemon.
On one occasion I also got 2 shinies in the same run, Skunktank and Thunderus. I took the Thunderus
Starting with guzzlord is neat because I've beat it 100+ times with no shiny yet
Not too bad! I wasn't keeping track, but in an average amount of attempts, I've gotten 4 shinies, Piloswine, Charmeleon, Uxie, and Arourus (also a Regieleki in like 6 resets, and that's all 5 I've ever gotten in gen 8)
That Tsareena is a bit SUS ;)
the buttons don't glow because I'm already subscribed and liked :(
alright fine, I'll replay sword and shield
Yes you should it's a amazing pokemon game
Rayquaza was the first shiny legendary I found in DA too.
Despite not getting a shiny I got so lucky when I got an npc to spawn hypnosis and dream eater
You should try Dynamax Adventure Speedruns at some point! I’m actually the guy who suggested them as a catagory!
Are people still playing DA? I got back onto it a few months ago but figured everyone was playing Legends Arceus or S/V by now 😅. I'll have top hop back onto Shield!
I got shiny zygarde the other day from da im still sorta in shock I’m never gonna do zygarde again
The dunamax adventures, while being inefficient compared to SV in shiny hunting, is still relevant though because its one of the few places to shiny hunt legendaries effectively. 100 hours for a shiny legendary isnt as bad as a soft reseting for one roll in a 1/1300 odds. Ive seen players soft reset for some legendaries for months. Its even more relevant now because SV legendarues are all shiny locked. Including new dlc.
That Minecraft Rowlet looks really cool
I’m very glad I got to participate in these
i’m glad my pokémon sword character made the video w video btw
I remember after like 4 months of playing whenever I could with just the AI (I didn’t know I could que online 😭) I finally got my shiny zyguard and I know the shiny rates are pretty high but still I wanted to scream and dance
Wtf the subscribe button actually glows
I was just playing violet and this video popped on autoplay, so I watched it and thought to myself ¨It would be nice to play Shield and get a random shiny from de DA¨. Thanks to you I am the happy owner of Mango the shiny Ho-oh. That I got in 5 tries :0000.
Oof 15:10 - just goes to show, don't be a smart-a$$. I've suffered defeat many times because of things like that haha
i started hunting with raid dens again last week with a friend of mine. first raid den after roughly 1.5 years. Shiny Yvental. i screamed. First shiny legendary from dens. he is now called T-bone
hopefully a nice medium rare
my first shiny legy was rayquaza and it came after 4 hours
the bacon
The like button didn’t glow, but the subscribe button did. Not clicking either, but good that you know about it.
I tried to get shiny ray for about 20-30 hours. Then i lost my save file. Im back in the dmax adventures cave with rayquaza as my first raid. But I dont have shiny charm, so im working on catching everything again now 😅
You can say what you want about Gen 8 but one thing that can be agreed upon is its soundtrack is an absolute banger
My first shiny from this was 1/300 shiny ratquaza first try lol
When I made a new account to do a rerun of Sword to complete my main account pokedex I did one dynamax adventure to get a legendary to carry me through the game, and somehow managed to beat Zygarde in one attempt with only bots.
Tsareena spitting eggs from the wawa 😂
I cannot believe I found this video! It’s so relatable. I spent probably the same amount of time 100+ hours looking for a shiny Rayquaza.
FINALLY found one. I was done with the game after that. I wanted a shiny Ho-Oh and Raikou though
