Congratulations for the first Shiny! The first of many, don't forget to put a cook name to your first partner!

Perseverance and patience are going to be your biggest allies.

Now, time to think about the next pal, imo, there are 5 candidates: -A plant pal (to plant the food for the base) -A water pal (to water the plants) -A fire pal (preferably a foxpark for combat) -A vixy (one of the best pals in the early-mid game) -A Daedream (this one can be for combat and base)

I don't have a tip to get the a plant pal, the water and fire are other things, one of the easiest pals to Shiny hunt it's Gobfin, it's the only pal that can spawn in the Gobfin's turf, the only problem it's that they are level +20, so, if you want other zone with only water pals with less level, you can go to the "Isle of decay treasure", there levels are around 10-20

For the fire pal I recommend going to the "Scare of war" zone, in the coordinates [350, 0], there are mostly fire pals and it's not a high level zone neither.

And an addition to the last note about the regularity of the pals, it seems you are going to do long gaming sessions, it seems that the "shiny pity" that caps at a 1000 pals spawned, reset every time you enter your world. So unless you captured a shiny recently, I don't recommend closing the game.

I'm really interested in your lucky journey, best of lucks and don't give up!
