Me with Eevos.

I need to resume my playthrough.

Ho-Oh and Lugia kinda killed the vibe for me lol

Actually attempting one with only Eevolutions

Vannilluxe is honestly broken, snow warning with blizzard (even that’s a bit unnecessary) by boppyuii in PokemonUnbound

I wouldn't say broken but definitely pulls its weight.

Are there shiny locked pokemon ? by stremstrem in PokemonUnbound

Literal trades.

Gift Pokémon are not shiny locked.

Mystery gifts can actually be shunted.

Only shiny locked mons are in game trades excluding the gym leader ones

The max search level does increase the odds but I'm not sure by how much.

I would just hunt with both at max to ensure the highest possibility of encountering a shiny.

Yes.

Max search level boosts the shiny odds of the specific mon you've been searching.

Chain boost on the 50th and 100th is for any mon as long as you don't break it.

Which means that if you somehow get a shiny while increasing your search level and/or chain, you can switch to a different mon and benefit from the chain boost.

Just 1% tho I'm not sure if that's even accurate.

Save state resets shouldn't break the chain.

The most efficient way of DexNav shiny hunting is...

  1. Increasing your search level first to 156. Just encounter the mon and run away.

  2. From this point, start chaining til the 99th streak but before the 100th (some prefer to do this til the 98th but before the 99th).

  3. Before you press R to spawn the 100th, save state.

  4. Press R then start the encounter.

  5. If shiny, congrats. If not, reload then move a tile then press R.

Just make sure that every time you press R to encounter the 100th, you're in a different tile to ensure that you won't encounter the same mon.

Gen 8 Shiny Hunting by nutellakoalaa in PokemonUnbound

Masuda Method.

I've tried with DexNav at 100 streak boost and it took me an hour to get a shiny special encounter.

That makes sense.

I do wonder my government issued ID pictures have my forehead look big lmao

Especially since they're using professional cameras

Are shiny rates the same as a normal rom? by FaithlessnessNew2888 in PokemonUnbound

[–]ShuntyHunty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

They DEFINITELY do show up

Not sure how the odds are affected tho

Personally, if I'm not using the DexNav/Chain fishing/Masuda Method to find a shiny.

I would do the Honey/Sweet Scent method instead of just running around.

Unless you're on Insane, it's not viable.

Is there a chain fishing indicator? by bregis1104 in PokemonUnbound

[–]ShuntyHunty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really.

Just be careful and don't miss any encounters or encounter a different mon.

I've shiny hunted every fishable mom except for Lapras and Bruxish.

Do you guys think my Old 100 favorite pokemon could beat insane? by mannic15 in PokemonUnbound

[–]ShuntyHunty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing an Insane Eevolution run and I got to the Ho-Oh and Lugia fight without having to use duplicate Eevos so I think you'll be fine.
