  • Опубликовано: 1 янв 2023
  • As part of my Gen 3 Shiny Living Dex, I decided to hunt another set of the Hoenn Starters in Ruby and Sapphire. These are some of the quickest and funnest full odds hunts you can do so if you haven't tried them yet, I highly recommend you do despite the Poochyena possibility.
    Treecko after 20,550 resets
    Mudkip after 21,730 resets
    Torchic after 10,280 resets
    That gives me an average of 17,520 which is terrible but these are really quick resets so it doesn't matter too much.
    These will be staying as Grovyle, Combusken and Marshtomp for my living dex.
    Thank you for watching as always!

    Right now working on my first ever Ruby DTQ and currently at 2728 SR for Torchic with one Gameboy. Its a little awkward since I don’t have a capture card so I got my photography camera pointed straight at my Gameboy but hopefully that adds some charm lol. It’s the longest hunt I’ve ever done, I’m wishing for a quick hunt but we’ll see. Seeing videos like this is always motivating so thank you! Wishing everyone the best of shiny luck 🍀

    @AyaChan993 Год назад +2

    Congrats on the second batch of Shiny Starters, Sonikks! I think putting your Gen 3 Shiny Living Dex in parts would be pretty cool, personally. I was thinking, since you said you're close to being 25% done in your progress and you mentioned things in like a Part 1-4 kinda format, maybe it'd be cool to do the overall compliations in 4 parts, as you progress from 25% complete, to 50%, and then on.
    It's really up to you and depends on you wanna go about compiling everything, but that's just a potential idea I got based on what you said in this video. Either way, good luck with your hunts going forward!
    And happy new year! ^w^ Looking forward to the videos you give us in 2023~

    Personally, I specialize more in Gen 1-2 Shiny Hunts.
    I am new to Gen 3 stuff, and I am curious, and I just have one question for you.
    How did you get all 3 Shiny Starters, onto the same Save File?
    I am genuinely curious.
    I am a total noob when it comes to Gen 3, sorry for my ignorance, but I would love to know.
    Other then that, thankyou, and have a lovely day.

    Great video! I just have one question, can I turn off my game boy after a soft reset without losing my chain?

      There's no chain. This is full odds. It's a random 1/8192 chance.

    Lol I did all 3 not too long ago, got 2 pooches before any starter then a third pooch after my first starter. But because of that I think the shiny gods felt bad and gave me my third starter one day after my second.

    Hii Sonikks I was wondering can I hunt the starter in saphire without worrying bout the Rng broken like emerald

      Hi Julie, you will need a working battery in Ruby and Sapphire. If your game boots with the message "The Internal battery has run dry" you will need to replace it. In Emerald, the battery doesn't matter.
