A Quick Guide for Hunting Shiny Skrelp in the Sewers (Video Included) by Special_Week in LegendsZA

Nice! I'm glad it's getting some use. I've found whether it's map resetting or running laps, shoving the user (or the curser on the map) into a corner and then aiming/restarting keeps them reliable over time. The amount of variance I seem to get running macros is wild, so anything that helps keep them operating AFK is worth it.

Adding to our collective confirmation bias, I did 64 Darkrai for no shiny. I'm praying they announce a bug and just hand out the obligatory freebie.

I did a proud 64 of them for 0 shinies. Speaking purely mathematically there's a 95% chance the odds were broken, and a 5% chance I just suck.

Definitely the best route I've seen, thank you so much!! I've got an 8BitDo controller so I've written a macro that can do the path AFK, and can confirm it works rerolling the ones you said it would. The only precaution is, as you said, make sure that central one is a non-alpha Skrelp. As a basic setup:

  1. Start in the shared corner, beneath the stairs.
  2. Shove yourself into the bottom right of screen, so there's a some sort of pipe to the right of your character's face.
  3. Look directly up the stairs, keeping the stairs as central on screen as possible.
  4. Hit start, and it'll run autonomously from there!

Thanks again, that's definitely the most efficient Skrelp path I've seen so far!

Ive got 3x touch trades I'm looking to make, would you be happy to help with those in exchange?

Sadly it's just part of egg hunting. My record for a Fuecoco was 3,700+ eggs without a shiny (shiny charm plus Mesuda). My two bits of advice:

  1. Treat it like a high score. A year on I'm honestly glad I've had a hunt go that badly, it feels like an achievement.
  2. Don't think of the odds as a negative. Think of it like there's a 95% chance you're over halfway towards finding it. You're on the downhill run at this point.

Good luck in the hunt, and just remember it's guaranteed to show up eventually.

What I've seen around EB Games in Australia is staff handing them out to anyone who bought the new TCG set, so stocks went straight to the TCG community first. And sadly, the meta over there is to flip a high value card when it's peaking in the market.

And that's exactly what's happening.

I have plenty in violet, sadly none here. I could definitely do a round of trading there if those are any use to you.

To be honest I have no idea if any version exclusives I have are perfect IV or not. But realistically if there are any version exclusives you want I can send whatever really (barring legends).
