A Pokémon Nuzlocke, but I can only use SHINIES

I attempted a Hardcore Nuzlocke of Pokémon HeartGold, HOWEVER, there was a catch...I could only use Shiny Pokémon. Could I complete this challenge of only using Shinies to defeat a Hardcore Nuzlocke of a Pokémon game?

The fact that he got a shiny starter that’s female that has the perfect nature that also has fricking pokerus is absolutely insane, actually complete bull luck like you’re probably the kind of person to hit 6 iron head flinches in a roll, while also getting under odds for 4 shinies is crazy, probably bc of gastly lol.

1/35,790,848,000 is about the odds of this happening 1/8192 for the shiny at all 1/8 for female 1/25 for a specific nature ~1/21845 for pokerus and to be more specific multiply that by 3 for it being specifically tododile which would be *1/107,372,544,000* Chances and probability are weird as hell so this may not be 100% accurate but it defo puts it into perspective how rare this is

@@da_xbox360well that is calculating the odds for specifically Totodile per starter reset. They are all independent events, so nothing complicated for the calculations, just simple multiplication. My personal recommendation would be to calculate for the odds of that happening for any of the starters, so drop the 1/3, but factoring in the 1/31 for the perfect attack IV

@ThemarkofEmboar1 5 ай бұрын

Factoring in shiny, 31 ATK IV, perfect nature, female, AND Pokerus, this Totodile has a 8.73E-11% chance of existing. If my calculations are right, you'd have a better chance at winning the lottery than replicating this Totodile.

For the people talking about the cheating, I typically group Poketubers into two categories: storyteller and technician. Kidd is all about the narrative, rather than showing us all the move deliberations and damage calcs. The fact that he killed the shiny Ho-Oh after hunting it puts him solidly in the category. Having the transgender Heracross makes the story more interesting, so I go with it. If pchal did something like that, I'd be seriously annoyed because he's all about the numbers. Also, the one Poketuber that I think fits across both categories is FlygonHG. He somehow manages to go into the nerdy details and still tell a good story. Totally underrated.
