Note: I misunderstood the datamine and it is 2:4096 DURING Lightstone. 1:4096 base rate. Video has been trimmed to avoid future confusion, but that was on-screen saying 3. It should be 2. I also changed the chapter title to include this.

I've been watching this over and over again while chaining and the "7% is a lot more than you think it is" (11:48) hits me so hard, bc I can't get any chain over 20ish so far and it drives me mad. Hearing it over and over again keeps me sane that I am not the unluckiest person doing this and that it's normal to fail.

@razrv3lc 2 жыл бұрын

I've been doing this for 2 days. the best chain I have is 20. the vast majority break before 10. They bungled the pokeradar in this game. it used to be a 2% chance of a random break and now it's 7%, which is huge when you have to reroll that number 40 times.

@Jiroscopio_ 2 жыл бұрын

@@razrv3lc What happens when it breaks? I thought it breaks when you encounter a different Pokemon, at least that's how it used to be. But I've been having this issue where after I catch the Pokemon the pokeradar doesn't activate again and the chain stops. Is that supposed to be how it breaks?

@@Jiroscopio_ Yes, that's it. Super frustrating. If you hear a bell sound after catching (usually while the black loading/transition screen after catching), then your chain continues and you see the moving grass patches. If there's no bell the chain broke. That's the 7 percent for you.

Always good to see correct probability statistics, thanks Austin John! When the chain is at 40, your chance of finding a shiny as one of your 4 patches becomes 3.9% (after re-rolling the pokeradar). There is also a 0.06% chance of finding 2 shiny patches.

Pro tip: don’t register any other key items. Just register the radar. No chance of activating the wrong item and breaking your chain, and it takes less time/user input to reuse the radar after 50 steps. Also, a chain of 39 has 1/200 or 0.5% chance of getting a shiny patch. Chain of 40 has 1/99 or 1.01% chance of a shiny patch. It’s only an increase of .5% to find a shiny, for another 7% chance of breaking your chain. Stay on 39 to find that shiny patch. Plus your shiny on the 40th catch will have 3 guaranteed perfect IVs.

i highly agree that the 1/2 as likely is worth the trade-off for the IVs

The underground is good for just finding random shinies. You can get the 40 diglett easily by putting your base at an intersection where they appear then enter/exit the base and gather them as they spawn. Also your meter fills up a lot faster online than if you're offline. Then while it's active, you go into a biome and check all spawns for shinies. Shininess is determined when you enter the biome so all you need to do is check each one for shininess and then exit the biome and repeat. I've found I can get two runs through a small biome in 4 minutes--keep in mind, all you have to do is enter, so if you get into the biome the second time before the timer runs out, you'll be able to check a full second round of them which is what tends to happen for small and large biomes. The odds aren't amazing (still 1/2048 which is large) BUT you have to consider that each small biome tends to have 5-7 pokemon so that turns it into a 5:2048, 6:2048, or 7:2048 chance. That's 1/410, 1/341, and 1/293 respectively. The only catch is that you don't get to choose what is shiny at that point. Then with the larger biomes, since there are more pokemon (7-10 spawns total), there's an even bigger chance that one of them will be a shiny. 7:2048, 8:2048, 9:2048, or 10:2048 puts you at 1/410, 1/256, 1/228, and then 1/205. Those odds in the large biomes are very workable. But it comes back to the fact that you're not getting to choose what will be shiny like you would with the pokeradar. This makes the underground hunting method more "just for fun" rather than usable if you're looking for something specific. If you're looking for something specific, you're going to be looking at the full 1/2048 odds.

You can at least "nudge" the species of the pokemon to your favor using the statues :) i will try to get a shiny Gible this way.

@alexanderk8851 2 жыл бұрын

I actually planned on doing that too. for me it is much more exciting to hunt many different pokemon at the same time not knowing which one it'll be in the end :) (little note: technically your math isn't quite correct. having 5 pokemon in one room for example doesn't make it 5/2048, it makes it 1-(2047/2048)^5 which is a little lower than what you said. but tbh that doesn't change a lot :P)

I can't wait to hunt with this method again. I caught a shiny Pancham and Scatterbug in my Pokemon X game via the Pokeradar, it was definitely no easy task and I messed up a lot. Unfortunately they were lost on my Omega Ruby game, with an ENTIRE box of shinies I caught using either horde method or DexNav. :( Once I get a Switch and Brilliant Diamond, I'm going to yet again fill another box with shinies I caught :) Don't get discouraged with your shiny hunts, and definitely find more reasons to do them. A friend and I would both hunt shinies and then after some time of training and catching more, we'd surprise each other in battle with them. Long car rides where you're not driving are one of the best times to shiny hunt, as well as if you're on break at work, etc. Thank you for the video man, I definitely had to see if there were changes to this method before trying it again. Although it is one of the more frustrating ways to shiny hunt, I think it's one of my favorites as well, and I'd probably rather do it than run back and forth hatching eggs.

Its really not the same. A shiny through poke radar will be significantly better than a mesuda method shiny because of the guaranteed max ivs.

@@beingofinconceivablehorror1854 not really true? you can chain breed to get a 6IV mon and breed with a foreign 5/6IV ditto and everstone ensures you get the nature you want, so MM is ultimately better for competitive shinies.
