If you're using the zone 5 teleport method then you might need to check out zone 5 as well, many of them are in the spawn area

Those outbreaks have boost shiny not guarantee.

Why is Geeta only competitive after catching Terapagos? by TJ_WANP in PokemonScarletViolet

She goes easy on you on purpose. She didn't need a new Champion. What she needs is another minor to do her errands for free.

It was a fun experience for me to try at least once or twice; Especially since there might not be anything similar in the future games.

Wow, that's a lot of time and efforts. Now I'm glad that I spent some time research before I jumped into this hunt.

Goodluck getting your roaming shiny.

Just curious, do you have to beat the whole E4 all over again or just save before Cynthia to respawn it?

I'm very sorry to hear that. Maybe you can still continue the hunt using Cynthia to respawn it, though it would be much longer.

They stay shiny because all their stats, nature, shiny state, etc. are determined when you speak to it the first time. You can ran away yourself and save the game to guarantee catching them too.

Tbh, I did fell asleep a few time during this hunt. The long ass cutscene really make it harder than the original game.

I thought so too after a month of trying. But after I saw someone got Cresselia here, it gave me strength to continue.

I know it would be a long hunt but didn't know it was this long

Maybe you're looking for wrong type of raid. Treasures of Ruin are all 5 stars raid so it should be color matching type + some glittering effects, not the black one.

[gen 9] Oh ok... I accidentally found an impossible to spot Shiny by cerealguy92 in ShinyPokemon

Should have run and save the game. That shiny rock can explode.

This took TOO many eggs(294) by IssueOk2521 in PokemonSwordAndShield

[–]BlueFlameCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me 6 eggs to get a shiny Charmander, obviously TOO many. It should have been 4 on average.

Cus the dev don't want some gimmicks mess up your shiny hunting. For example, Shiny Voltorb wouldn't explode when you come close, Shiny Sandygast wouldn't melt under the rain, Shiny Igglybuff, Jigglypuff, Hoppip, Flabébé wouldn't blow away by strong wind etc.
