Currently I keep all my shinies in my leaf green cartridge but one day I plan to move them into home (so I can have my collection all in one place) to back up my save files on my gba games I use an R4 card! There’s a program called gba backup tool you can use and all you do is have the gba cartridge in the bottom slot of the ds and the r4 card running the gba backup tool, and you can back up save files and also load save files onto cartridges if you want!
Got 13 full odd Shinies in Heart Gold in 2023. Tyrouge, Bellsprout, Tangela, Ditto, Farfetch'D, Graveler, Remoraid, Pikachu, Qwlifish, Rattata, Machop, Zubat, and Marill. STILL on the hunt for Shiny Mareep!✨🐏
Nice video My quickest hunt on my current devices was 4k 😅 (5 total shinys) My quickest hunt on emulator (still original emerald) were like 2k encounters in 17 shinys. Technically I only counted the encounters between every shiny. If its just about the hunt it was 30 encounters for Regice and shiny heracross in safari after 123 encounters. But in both cases I already made 8k+ encounters before elsewhere
I might mess around with color correction on my camera but I stopped using an iPhone because for the wide shots, it was a lot harder to see the shinies.
Dom1nator, where do you recommend searching for old GBA Pokémon games? Used to have all the gen 3 games, but down to just Ruby and FireRed after my mom threw out all my games when I moved to college back in 2013. Yea, I’m salty, but oh well. The only reason Ruby and FireRed survived is because I had them hidden in a secret case and accidentally stowed them in one of my school bags. Trying to get the old gba games to work on the living Dex with only Pokeballs, inspired by your other videos!
Honestly I just look for games on eBay and try to look for ones with good prices that look like they’re in good condition. Most of my gba games I’ve bought were before the price increases and I just bought them off GameStop but sadly they don’t sell them anymore. It’ll be tough finding a good price but every now and then you can find some crazy deal if you look around many sites. Another option is to buy a Japanese copy as those are very inexpensive still! I recently bought a Japanese copy of Ruby for $18!
Fantastic shinies!! Just a question, I remember you shared us your DS recording setup using cardboard box few years ago…Could you help me by either attaching that video or brief explanation plz? I understand it’s a weird question😅 Thanks!
@@Howudoing-7154 oh. I’m not sure what video I would’ve explained it. But I know some of my earlier Kanto shiny Living Dex videos feature it. Like my shiny pidgey and shiny squirtle
I have a fake firered myself--do you know if shiny starters are possible there? I've heard a lot of no's about it /: and I wonder if they really won't transfer up
Fake copies generate Pokémon the same way as authentic copies. I’ve hunted multiple shiny starters on my fake copy. The only thing you need to watch out for with fakes is that they can be extremely unstable. Before shiny hunting in them I would recommend testing if you can use them in a ds to transfer up or if you can trade with them. My specific FireRed can trade and do everything normal, but as soon as you try to put it in a ds, it’ll delete the save file. So if I catch a Pokémon in it that I want to transfer up to gen 4, I need to first trade it to an authentic copy before trying to migrate
@@RubyGroudonXx I’ve never had anything happen with beating the elite 4 but I can’t say for sure if that’s real or not considering it forces a save at the end. I would just do a play through and test everything you want to to make sure it’s safe before spending hours on a shiny only for the save file to be corrupted
Final shiny on gba? Articuno in 58 in leaf green. I was testing how fast I could reset, was gonna go to 100 before I recorded… Final final? Uh…. Full odds shiny alpha heracross adamant nature.
I’m currently working on Zapdos, only double hunting. Crazy thing is, 58 isn’t my craziest. I got the shiny gift scorbunny in home… yeah that’s probably the rarest I’ll ever get. Apparently you can reroll them 3 times. But I got one without even knowing, I claimed them and checked next day.
Pokémon bank is not shutting down in April! It probably will shut down one day but they even confirmed bank and transporter will remain active after the 3ds online connectivity shuts down
What was the final shiny you found in 2023?
Shiny hisuian zorua :)
@@salgooderman that’s such a cool one too! Congrats!
@@ThedomiNATION Thanks!
Lechonk
registeel for my oras bq
I love how you casually talked about that fake fire red while a shiny was appearing and best moment imo! Major congrats on all your shinies!! lmao
Nice compilation! How do you backup your cartridge saves and do you keep all your shinies in cart or move to home?

For the Ekans you could opt to nickname it "Drocer" (record backwards).
Congratulations on the shinies 🎉

Wow so much better on the iPhone, could you do zoom ins with that instead? Xd

Was it for the 2DS, 3DS, or DS lite?
@@ThedomiNATION I believe it was the DS lines…placing it inside the box, cut out the top part to place the phone to record or smt

@@ThedomiNATION sweet, thanks! Is defeating the elite 4 the same deal? Read something about how that's super risky to the game too.

@@switzcheez2 I didn’t even know that was a thing!
I learned it from AbsolBlogs. He mentioned it in I believe Ash Hat Pikachu video? It’s been so long I can’t remember.
Better do Mew quick! Poke Bank is shutting down in April!
Only if you want it in future titles
