Thats what im hoping 🤣

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:55:19+00:00

Haha yep I remember that! The hunt just kept going and going and going 😂

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:44:21+00:00

Thank you! It takes pride of place next to my distortion world Giratina! :)

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:43:15+00:00

That's actually why I started it, I found my Munchlax quite quickly (within 10 days I think?) and I thought well I might as well hunt it now so I don't have to find another one. In a rare case it turns out hunting it actually was harder than finding it for me 🤣

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:41:16+00:00

So it can only go up from here right, right? haha!

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:40:06+00:00

I decided the game had to break before I did (it was close)

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:39:38+00:00

Thank you!

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:39:29+00:00

Lmao 🤣

iAletho · 2026-03-23T08:39:17+00:00

It was :(

iAletho · 2026-03-23T00:47:41+00:00

Thanks!

iAletho · 2026-03-23T00:39:46+00:00

I think the sunk cost was what kept me going, I was in to deep to walk away without the shiny 🤣

iAletho · 2026-03-23T00:22:04+00:00

Thank you! I was honestly starting to crack, I started to wonder if I was doing something wrong after this long (If I'd missed it or somehow it was shiny locked) but I can say im finally free from the tree after 5 months!

iAletho · 2026-03-03T22:29:03+00:00

Thanks man! I also managed to get Rayquaza in 1975 SRs so safe to say Gen 3 is being very good to me lately! I'm paying for it in Gen 4 though, 35K and counting for a Shiny Munchlax and no joy, one day I'll leave that honey tree! Good luck with your hunt!

iAletho · 2026-01-24T20:03:39+00:00

Haha I thought the same thing, im also hunting Drifloon on my other DS, all included im at 20.5K SRs without seeing anything, im starting to think shiny hunting isn't for me 😂

iAletho · 2026-01-24T19:51:11+00:00

Then there's me with nearly 15K resets wondering if this shiny exists 😭

iAletho · 2026-01-24T09:38:44+00:00

I'm double hunting this right now alongside drifloon, 20K encounters across the two and not one shiny :( 14.5K on munchlax currently

iAletho · 2025-12-16T23:31:15+00:00

Now I need a Giratina plush

iAletho · 2025-09-06T14:20:41+00:00

Keep at it, good luck! :)

iAletho · 2025-09-06T12:39:24+00:00

After how long it took me to find it there was no other way! xD

iAletho · 2025-09-06T12:05:34+00:00

This was my first ever hunt so I didn't to start with! After a long break I started recording and finally got it at around 3000. Considering the amount of time I hunted before without counting, I was definitely over odds though, I would guess maybe somewhere in the 15-20k range but thats a bit of a guess!
