Shiny Hunt THESE POKEMON Before Bank SHUTS DOWN!

It has been brought to my attention that I completely overlooked shiny spinda. While you can hunt it on the switch (BDSP) due to a mess up with how its patterns are determined, you cannot put them into Home from BDSP. Hopefully the next game has spinda with the patterns working correctly…

Furfrou fans rejoice, Legends Z-A will almost definitly feature Furfrou and it's forms, as it was shown in the trailer

Pokémon transferring is unnecessarily complicated. I wish they’d just let everyone download Pokémon Bank (it’s free after all) and add (at least) all digital Pokémon games that were in the 3DS eShop to the Switch one

I really like how you included Pokemon Go in this video to at least show if it’s possible there or not. So many people completely exclude Go when it comes to these types of videos but I really appreciate you including it

Something else worth noting that wasn’t mentioned in the video is the Pokémon Gold/Silver coin case glitch, which can be used to obtain the shiny form of any Pokémon available in those games including Celebi and I think Mew as well. There are also rng manipulation methods that can be used to make the hunting process in various games much faster.

I feel like they should've added a patch to bank/home that allowed you to move Pokémon via Infrared since both the switch joycon and 3DS have it so Gamefreak no longer has to supply online servers to transfer Pokémon from Gen 3-7 to Switch kinda like how you could trade Pokémon nearby using it

Great video! It's definitely beneficial to spread info right now about Pokémon that collectors might want go make sure they obtain brfore it's too late, with Bank being on borrowed time. Shiny hunting is already challenging but like you said if you want to hunt in older games and transfer up, legitimate means to do so are coming to an end. Really is an end of an era coming.

After stumbling across your channel I've been working on my living dex as much as I'm going to be able to. I'm almost done with Gen 3 and already caught all legendaries/mythicals in Gen 4. I hope I can at least make it to Gen 6 before April and get a couple weeks of shiny hunting some legendaries. Really appreciate all the high quality content man.

It's sad to see how much of a clutch Pokemon GO has on obtaining so many of these shinies - I have a feeling it's going to be the first way that some of these shinies (especially starting with the Gen V mythicals) will ever be released shiny. Also, for Manaphy, it's hacky, but I personally endorse using 3DS cfw to totally clear the Ranger games' save files!! If you can delete the entire .SAV from the cart, any cart can be reset to distribute Manaphy again!

Great vid man, dont forget about spinda which has only been catchable in bdsp but cant be sent to home from that game, so the shiny would have to come from the 3ds

Love your videos, this is a great reference point to use. The whole Manaphy egg thing is wild, it's so weird they would just make it a completely static number of eggs per hoe many cartridges are printed. If I could make a suggestion, I'd see if you can tweak your mic settings a bit. Your voice gets kind of scratchy sometimes and it sorta sounds like you're yelling through the speakers all the time. It's not the end of the world, but it can make binging your videos a little headache inducing 😅

Great video again man, thanks for doing what you do.

I’m hoping a company or group of fans take over the online services if it gets shut down, kinda like how the gen 4 and 5 have the event Pokemon available and the dns exploit stuff

Thanks for the helpful video! Going to enjoy trying some of these out.

I'm currently speedrunning both my USUM copies just for the shiny Poipole. I really am not much of a Shiny hunter by any means but these two look incredible and I kinda want those.

I don't know if you just decided to ignore it, but there was that event where people from all over the world had to beat the Zeraora Dinamax Raids to get a shiny one.

Its absolutely insane that they're going to cut 7 gens like this.... And ill never forget the little ad on youtube when crystal VC came out and the pokemon company was like "finally, all the games are linked!" And like 4 years later dexit happens lol. And the worst part is I dont buy for a second this whole argument about server costs. That is a drop in the bucket for what the server would actually be doing and how many people would use it. Nah, this is about money. They dont want even the few of us that would actually take the time to transfer from gen 3 up to debate ever getting one of their remakes over playing the old games. Even if those remakes are outsourced and extremely lazy....

as soon as im done speedrunning the living dexes for all the games before the switch im def doing some of these hunts before everything shuts down

Great vid! Shiny Surf Pikachu is a nice one to hunt as well 👍

Pokemon bank being shut down is why I always hated the idea of it being a online only transfer method, at least I can hope 3rd party servers allow the transfer so 6th and 7th gen game are saved
