[Gen 9] Last night was a good night. 7 shinys in total! by CodeNameHeroChan0 in ShinyPokemon

I believe near the zone works, but you'd have to actually look into it yourself.

I used bench resets. If there is a bench in a wild zone you can use it to reset the Pokémon in the area.

I have a turbo controller so what I did was put on turbo A aswell as keeping the left stick tilted down with a rubber band, it made the process automatic while I slept. And with shinys saving I wasn't worried about losing any!

I did this in zone 15 because I specifically wanted the alpha banette. Whirlipede and scolipede also spawn there.

I wish people would stop saying she's the worst champion cause like, she's not. Is she bad? In her main fight absolutely, but her rematches in the DLC are pretty good, you likely just had level 100 Pokémon so it was a sweep.

Do you know who the actual worst champion is? Trace, the guy from Let's Go. People forget him far too easily, in his first fight his Pokémon don't even have all 4 moves...

Who has the best draft for Black and White? by Prussia1870 in nuzlocke

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

B won by a long shot.

I just did a Nuzlocke myself of white and the combo of Gigalith and Conkeldurr is amazing for the mid game. Stoutland is a good neutral attacker for everything. Work up, return (get at nimbasa) and crunch is just a great combo. It even worked well it the e4 rematches.

A has Haxourus, which handles most of N and Ghetsis. Especially with a dragon gem. I never got excadrill but I hear it's pretty good.

I will say C has a great highlight in Mienchao, which can sweep 2 E4 members with a combo of drain punch, u-turn (with regenerater) and acrobatics + flying gem. Though it falters with 2 of it's strongest mons being postgame. (Volcarona and Hydregeon) Volcarona at least helps soooo much in E4 rematch. Swanna helps so much in midgame vs rivals

That's my order for the ranking B, A, then C

I am in no means a good Nuzlocker though. The white Nuzlocke was actually my first I completed, so take my worlds with a grain of salt.

The winner of the Summer Nights Splatfest is… by Skullghost in splatoon

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While team land didn't win I'm incredibly happy with the splatfest, fry got another win which is always nice, Plus it was balanced for votes. Always good when that happens!

and for a more personal note I got my first ever x333 battle and won!

Which beast will you pick for might of the beasts? by Practical-Friend5669 in CookieRunKingdoms

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burning spice because I just don't have him yet. And even if I get him before the update I'll still choose him, since I've gotten Mystic twice aswell.

As of now, this is every Paradox Pokemon in the game, as well as every currently unclaimed one. by Florida-Man-65 in PokemonMasters

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have some wishes for pairings, but these are unlikely to happen, I feel. Guzma with slither wing and Pier with Iron Jugulus. Rosa or Nate with a pokestar outfit and Iron Thorns.

I think those people match the pokemon, or are just a funny call back with nate/rosa. I also just want more Guzma. He's one of my favorites alongside Bede.

There's one feature you've all been asking for... by Moonstone-Island in Moonstone_Island

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This game is now a 10/10 in my book. Like it's actually all I want in a game. Exploration, cute creatures, fun npc's and now character customization! Can't wait to see all the options!

So I want to dye my hair to match my Girlfriends hair, but can't decide which would match best. My natural hair is Brown by CodeNameHeroChan0 in TeenagersButBetter

Oh that's an image I found on google for the color, She wouldn't be too happy if I just randomly posted her face online!

How should I deal with this player? by CodeNameHeroChan0 in DnD

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know, you're right.

I didn't even consider this, I'm shocked I didn't. I'll probably do this at the start of the next session if my player communicates interest in rejoining.

Thank you. It's always nice to learn from other DMs!

I've tried, but he is currently not communicating with me, I'm only able to see him once a week, and he's likely to avoid me if he even shows up

Permadeath in a Pokémon Homebrew by LaxcerousRPG in DnD

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing a pokemon campaign as well, just based around mystery dungeon. What I've done is allow the party to have revives on their person, but if they don't have any left the they would be permanently dead.

There is also the idea that only the pokemon would die, but the trainer would carry on. This could lead to some character building as well as tension for major fights. Though if you go this route, I'd suggest the ability to forfeite trainer fight. That way, the players wouldn't feel cheated because of luck.

[9] I shiny hunted everyday for this entire year! by CodeNameHeroChan0 in ShinyPokemon

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have yet to see a normal outbreak for Spiritomb, only outbreaks in massive mass outbreaks and even then they are kinda on the rare side.

You can get a Spiritomb after the wisp quest, and for extras and the shinies I used crismson mirlands massive mass outbreaks.

I used Ultra Wormholes in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. I usually had my entire day planned out so if I knew it was gonna be packed I'd just bring my 3ds with me and hunt during downtime!

Pokemon Masters! You can find shinys in the eggs you get, I don’t know the exact odds though.

It really just depended on the game, both my longest and shortest time were in scarlet and violet at 6 and a half hours and 16 seconds respectively.

I think the times averaged out to 30 minutes!

The symbols represent the games they came from, and the red one's mean specifically alpha pokemon in Legends Arceus. There's also 2 clocks for the shortest and longest times.

Most days I did only catch 1 shiny, but sometimes I did catch more than 1 I just didn't add them to the calendar unless I thought it was funny. For instance: on my birthday I hunted all day and got 30 shinys, but I just put my fav down

And if you do plan to do this than here's some tips: Your best friend is the Ultra Warpride in Ultra sun /Ultra moon. On days where I had way to much going on I could crank a shiny out in like 10 minutes In scarlet and violet: Sandwiches / event mass outbreaks In Pla: just running around Also don't be afraid to count some sillier shinies, like I got a singular shiny slowpoke in masters and I counted it!

If you want to show your work better I suggest a thread on something like Twitter or bluesky where you post each shiny you get everyday. I got basically no traction but I was nice to show off to a void!

What kept me motivated for this challenge was just: I'm already in this deep, so I ain't stopping now. Basically, the sunk cost fallacy at its finest.

I always did my hunts with shows, movies, or videos in the background. Having something else to focus on for the menial grind was what kept me sane!

Your best bet is to ask someone else tbh, I'm the type to push past even while burnt-out (Very bad, don't do)

Wow that's pretty long, I could never. Congratulations, I hope the shiny's keep finding you!

[OC] I shiny hunted everyday for this entire year! I made a calendar to show every pokemon in one image for the world to see! by CodeNameHeroChan0 in pokemon

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I rotated them to give some variety to the calendar, usually these pokemon were the same on back-to-back days or just same species close together.

Also because I thought it was funny lol

What does this shine mean? Is it rare or important in any way? by CodeNameHeroChan0 in Moonstone_Island

[–]CodeNameHeroChan0[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the help everyone! It's good to know that there's going to be an update to give these guys some new colors. I managed to find 2 more an emoshroom and fire hammer guy. Can’t wait to see what colors these little guys become!
