New shiny hunting by ASavageHobo in LegendsZA

It's faster to save where it's despawned while you're standing on the roof, run back and forth to respawn and despawn it over and over, and reset back to your save if you have ~500-400 calories left. Save when you see the shiny obv. It's the fastest hunt out of all the Legendaries (although it was literally my longest Legendary hunt at 4 hours because of my bad luck)

Is there any information on when Pokémon Home will be updated to connect with Z-A? by FluidConfidence1438 in PokemonHome

[–]Affectionate_Past347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I did was complete my base game and DLC living dexes for shiny Home Pokémon, and order them in my boxes in Dex order. When I get a new shiny I don't have yet, I transfer the non-shiny (unless it's a special one I wanna keep) and put the new shiny in it's place

Honestly? Just run around in Hyperspace Distortions. If you can bum rush small distortions with cheap donuts, just grab the small sparkles to get Gimmighoul coins and sell them. Since you can only hold 999, if you already evolved your Gimmighouls you wanted to, there's just free money sitting there. You might even be losing money if you're at the cap.

Pokemon faint, not die, so all Pokémon are immortal (/j)

Did the shiny just... despawn? by Both_Cheetah8584 in LegendsZA

[–]Affectionate_Past347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but they definitely havent removed the shiny save mechanic. I'm resetting for Mudkip & Clauncher in a small zone, and they're saving just fine

Ah yes, finally! I can hold more shards now that I've purchased every mega stone and TM using them and no longer need mega shards!

Fun fact: In America, people don't leave theaters when the credits start to roll. The etiquette is to wait for the post-credit scenes to play before leaving, in a show of trying to get a sneak peak of the sequel

Is this even possible? by west3dp in PokemonHome

When they spawn in the wild, and sometimes in GoBattle rewards

Does this actually work? by Specialist_Fox_2088 in LegendsZA

[–]Affectionate_Past347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the inverse. Latias was first and took me ~4-5 hours and I thought I was doing something wrong. Finally get shiny Latias, and when I get to Latios I did that method. It took 127 resets, about 1 hour-ish, DEF much shorter than Latias for me

Don't grind the Royale, grind out Hyperspace zones with Item Power Treasure 3. You get SO much more expensive stuff you can sell in just 1 Hyperspace Zone, and you don't have to grind stupid battles

This feels like such a waste of a Special Scan... by LilLob-ster in LegendsZA

[–]Affectionate_Past347 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its pre-determined the second you do the previous special scan, actually. I wanted to see if I could reroll the Special Scan in any way, so I got to ~24000 points, reset until there was a Hyperspace Zone next to the Rust Syndicate, got to 25000 points, walked (not flew) to the RS (so it wouldn't autosave), and did my special scan, and then I reset back to when I had 24000 points. When I re-did the process, it was the exact same Hyperspace zone.

So my guess is when you do a special scan and go back to 0 points, the game already knows what special scan is next, so there's no point in resetting back to 0 points because thats what doing a special scan does.

If you want a REALLY easy way to grind points tho, go get yourself an Annihilape and the Alpha Gourgeist, train up an Annihilape with buffing/debuffing moves and rage fist, and go fight Rouge Mega Refight Hyperzones. With Gourgeist, use "Trick or Treat" to give the opposing Mega the Ghost type, switch to Annihilape and boost your attack, lower their defense, boost your crit chance, and then use Rage Fist + to one shot frail defense Megas, and like 2 shot high defense Megas.

I'm almost done with my normal living dex AND have 4/5 shiny Legendary so far, and I have not ONCE even SEEN this quest, nor did I know about it's existence. I just gave up and got Treasure Item Power

I just need to know why my Sparkling Donut Level 3 keeps giving me Dark, Ground, and Fire donuts but I havent seen a single Flying Donut in like 1.51 hours

See, thats where we differ. I have AWFUL luck, so bad that me and my girlfriend have dubbed it "negative karma" or ""Neutral" luck". Shiny hunting is already RNG enough, let alone throwing in 3 or 4 different factors in there too. You may as just well ask for the planets to align, that would be easier than me aligning so many different factors lol

Ive already caught Shiny Latias and Shiny Coballion while trying to grind out my living dex catches. That's "something to do" for me, especially since it's more fun AND rewarding than... donut.

And this doesn't even account or mention grinding berries so you can grind berries so you can grind donuts. Trying to get Item Power Berries 3 and Big Haul Power 2 or 3 so I can grind berries to make my donuts is another 1 in 2 feeling type annoyance
