    For those who may be confused, he did mis speak at the beginning there. For roaring moon, he meant to say dark and DRAGON, not dark and flying. Roaring moon isn't flying, and from what I can tell he's using dragon, since sneasels aren't popping up everywhere. Just came to the comments to clear that up :))) thanks Austin your videos are unbelievably helpful!

    This definitely changed how I hunt certain mons! You're way more involved than just running around, and passively killing wrong spawns give you loot so you always feel like you're making _some_ progress.

    PSA: You can do a similar method when doing mass outbreaks. Sometimes you’ll notice if you drive into the outbreak too fast you will only see a few Pokémon but if you approach slowly or pan your camera slowly a bunch will spawn all around you. 73 shinies and counting, this method is effective.

    You can also hunt for Iron Valiant in the other massive cave system where research area 4 is. They only show up if you have a fairy encounter power as well, so I recommend the sparkling fairy level 3 + fairy encounter power level 3. They will legit be EVERYWHERE in the cave, its kind of nuts. I found that way more spawn in this cave system than the one shown in the video where you can actually find them normally

    People probably already pointed this out, but if you're going for Iron Valliant, you can just head down to the underground cavern, the one that goes down to the lab encased in crystals. As long as you stay out of the very bottom where there's water (where it spawns Glimorra and Golduck I think), you will only and exclusively encounter Iron Valliant. Whether the fact that the area around you is less open than the cave in the video is better or worse is up to debate though

      Prolly late as well, iron valiant (and some other paradox Pokémon, depending on sandwich and game version) can be caught at that rock located near research lab 4. Exit lab 4 and head straight down the path to the cliff. Jump down to flat crystal. The giant rock in front of you will spawn 15 Pokémon. Move away and walk back to easily despawn and respawn.

    So my brother and I were co op paradox hunting in area zero, so we could get the opposite version paradoxes. We made the sparkling electric burger sandwich and went to the massive slope by the second lab. We each only got 6 or 7 iron thorns/sandy shocks at a time, but auto battling made things so much faster than running back and forth because those two have a very small spawn area. So this method, specifically the auto battle variant, may be very helpful in smaller areas, such as the various cave systems.

    • @Yuri-q4v
      @Yuri-q4v 2 года назад +1

      Heya, how do you manage to get into the others area zero? I tried to go into co op with my friend (who has violet), but we couldn't manage to get into one area zero together. We were still in one union circle, but each person was inside their own area zero, only getting the paradox mons from their respective game

    • @immortaliron2475
      @immortaliron2475 2 года назад +2

      Enter a union circle, the. Both go into area zero at the same time. As long as you two stay together, you will get each other’s spawns. Keep in mind you will not be able to see other players in area zero so you need to be coordinated. But it’s more than possible.

  • @Riryz
    @Riryz 2 года назад +8

    For Iron Valiant I just go to research station 3 and run into the massive cave leading to the bottom. With Fairy encounter they'll be the only spawn, so running back and forth between the floating platform and the main path keeps spawning a ton of them without having to worry about spawning other pokemon.
    Also, for roaring moon dark sucks, both zweilous and sableye are single spawns. Also its dragon/dark type not flying. Just use dragon sandwich you only need to "compete" with zweilous.

    Not sure if you're already aware or not, but if you go to Research Station 3 and go into the cave that's right in front of you, you can get Iron Valiant to spawn exclusively (a TON of them) with a fairy sandwich. I don't have Scarlet, but I'm assuming it would be the same with Roaring Moon.

So regardless of which sandwich you're using you're still going to get at least two species in that area. I found 3 or 4 shiny Zweilous before my shiny RM finally showed up. @@vibe6223

    @1meengreenie 2 года назад +1

    When I was doing my Iron Valiant hunt I thought to myself "well, I need a shiny Greavard/Houndstone anyway so maybe I can multitask this hunt." When my shiny IV finally spawned, there were two buried packs of ghost dogs that spawned next to it and something told me to pop them up just to check and sure enough, one of the Greavard was shiny too. It was my first instance of double shinies, thankfully I had enough common sense to put down a hard save before going after either of them, haha.
    Hoping I can try hunting for the Scarlet paradoxes in a union circle sometime soon. I'll definitely use this strategy with my friends to speed things up! Thank you, Austin!

    when you are walking/riding your dragon, repeatedly pushing the joystick can wear your hands out. If you crouch, you can go full speed without getting sore hands. You dont go too fast and accidently spawn packs either. Crouching is the way of ensuring as many spawns as possible!

I would get around 12-15 eevee spawns and run into town to reset fully. the trickiest part was getting the right distance away from Eevee to guarantee i would spawn more when i knocked something out using let’s go.

I tried two times without this trick with no luck, but I tried it with this trick twice and got it the second time.

    After watching this, I used this method to find a shiny Heracross in 4 minutes. If you keep to the cliff's edge northwest of the groundblight shrine and pace back and forth then it works extremely similarly to Austin's method for Slither Wing except there are no pack spawns to worry about, so you can move fast. Keeping to the cliff's edge makes the camera work simple. I was spawning well over 100 per minute.

    Friendly reminder: Be VERY careful not to run away from pokemon you want to catch while in coop. I ran away from a shiny indeedee cause I forgot to save while in local coop, and she despawned. I don't know if saving before the shiny will keep it there if you reload from a coop game.
    Coop may be faster numbers, but the likelihood of failing the shiny also increases if you're used to running from them to save.

    Fun fact: If you use a Fairy sandwich for Iron Valiant, you can just go to Zone 4 and have a 100% spawn rate for Iron Valiant. It's spawn conditions is cave, but it turns out it doesn't have to be specifically the one you get it in normally if you're using the Encounter Power.

    Highly advise doing dragon sandwich if hunting Roaring Moon. If you use dark sandwich you’ll get tons of Sneasel and Sableye appearing on top of Zwelious and Roaring Moon. And the Sableye are small, annoying & like to chase you

    There is a spot in the deep layer of the Area Zero where Iron Valiant, Iron Wheel, Iron Juggulus, Iron Bundle and Iron Hands is incredibly easy to spawn and get as shiny which makes the ruins in violet much more useless since there are no pack spawns in your way while you reset encounters

    I know that quick balls are op, but I really like matching shinies to the ball they're in. Would it be easier to breed for a shiny in an apricorn ball or reset? Does the shiny stay if you save and reload even if you find them via sandwich spawn methods? I'm currently breeding for a shiny salamance in a friend ball 💚🧡

    • @Nallanator
      @Nallanator Год назад +2

      From what I’ve done, a shiny will remain there if you save in front of it & close the game. I’ve done this so that I can catch some shiny Pokémon in specific Apricorn balls. If I use up the ball, I just turn my game off & back on, & the shiny Pokémon will appear again in the same spot.

    • @michaelk7007
      @michaelk7007 Год назад

      Nall nailed it, but just a heads up to anybody just trying this out. You should turn off autosave and manually save before starting the fight. In the event you need to restart, you lose the remainder of what was on your sandwich power, but one sandwich for one shiny is still good.

    I know a lot of people complain about how easy the shinies are to get, but I've honestly had so much more fun with shiny hunting in this. It still feels just as exciting to me to find the shinies. And yeah, they aren't as difficult to get, but it still took me like a month to actually complete the Pokedex on both Scarlet and Violet and then it took me 3 hours to trade over all the version exclusives to and froe. As well as since I have to get two herba mysticas every time I want to shiny hunt a Pokemon, so it isn't like I still didn't have to put forth tons of effort into getting the shinies. The end result just comes about quicker, which if you have a job like me, you really appreciate, because when you play a game, you don't want to it to be literal months of grinding. The time I have off I want to be as much fun as possible not make me question why I am even playing the game as opposed to doing something more fun. I am glad you still have to put forth effort in shiny hunting, but not to the extent we did in previous games. It took me a literal year to get a shiny on one of the older games. A fooking year- I am not exaggerating. And I am not even factoring in the amount of time it took me to get the shiny charm.

    Tip for anyone going for Iron Valiant: it’s much easier to take a Fairy sandwich and start at the bottom of Base 4 going up until the entrance of the cavern. It has much better spawn rates than the original cave, no other pokes and this exact trick works for Iron Hands using an electric sandwich as well.

    I'll definitely be trying this out, especially for roaring moon!

      If you find one you could just save in front of it, and close your game any time after they enter battle. Then the party will disband and you can reload in front of the shiny and catch it too.
