Yeah it was completely by accident since I wouldn't have been fighting anything if it wasn't for that. Pawmi killed a ditto which I still needed so I was approaching everything to try to capture one. I guess outside Medali is the best spot for Zorua and ditto.

finally a shiny cloyster

Sorry, Im not. The reason I get multiples of the shinies is so I can get one of every stage shiny for a complete shiny living dex

Will do

Fuck this game lol I finally FINALLY got the Flamigo outbreak. I go there and no Flamigos. The fucking Flamigo outbreak doesnt spawn any Flamigos. WTF Game Freak?

if you do get dubs ill trade ya one

Never saw another Flamigo outbreak but got a Scyther outbreak which I had never seen before. Took a while but I managed to get the shiny so that was cool. I already have shiny Scyther and its evolutions from PLA but I thought it would be cool to get a Scizor in a nest ball.

Got an extra shiny sneasel if anyone got something shiny to trade

So decided "fuck it, I have all this HM, might as well do some sandwich hunts"

In like 3 sandwiches I got:
Croagunk
Flamigo
Iron Jugulis
Kingambit
Lokix
Iron Bundle

And, also, @JoanOfArcade it's your lucky day, I found a random shiny Cetoddle while checking a raid den. I'll trade you some time tomorrow or whenever. Not tonight, gonna go to bed soon. If you want me to give it a nickname let me know.

you can give traded things a nickname exactly one time, even if already nicknamed

Oh I thought you couldn't give traded pokemon nicknames at all

Sometime tomorrow is fine no nickname needed. I got a few extras of shinys if you need gible, sneasel or flutter mane

I'll probably keep any nicknames. Somebody from Italy named a murkrow Mr. Crow.

Im available to trade now if you are

Fuck this game lol

Pawmi outbreak. 60 KOs. Shiny sandwich. After an hour I dont see a single fucking shiny Pawmi. Except. Whats that?! Pink Pawmi spawned INSIDE the Pokecenter so its in this weird fucking limbo state where its there and I cant interact with it. Then as if to add insult to injury. I walk away defeated only to run directly into a random shiny Marill that I cant even see because its the same color of the grass. WTF.

@papercup I'm free now sorry. Did you need sneasel, gible or fluttermane shiny?

Itll be like 15 minutes before Im free again. Guess Ill take Sneasel

Never mind brother just got on switch will be a couple hours now

Do you have discord? Could add me on there so I don't miss you again @papercup

Yes. papercup#4195

@JoanOfArcade okay Im available.

Yeah sent you a discord friend request

Is it worth playing Pokemon Go to transfer Pokmon to Home?

Game wouldn't let me connect to the servers, guess they're down or something. So I went to Medali and popped a fairy sandwich. Almost immediately shiny Dedenne. But then I found my true mark about 10 minutes later. Shiny Fidough. But, then! To top it off, with only a couple minutes to spare, marked shiny Dachsbun. Cinnamon the Opportunist! :D

Caught a shiny sableye and girafarig last night. Spotted the sableye but didn't realize the girafarig was shiny until I ran into it by accident

Spent a few hours shiny hunting this afternoon.
Got:
Arboliva
Grafaiai
Revavroom
Orthworm

Only gen 9 shinies I'm missing besides the starters and the shiny locked Pokemon are:
Tandemaus
Maushold
Squawkabilly
Klawf
Wiglett
Wugtrio
Tatsugiri
Farigiraf
Great Tusk
Scream Tail
Brute Bonnet
Flutter Mane
Slither Wing
Sandy Shocks
Iron Treads
Frigibax
Arctibax
Baxcalibur
Roaring Moon

Getting close :D Then there's like idk maybe 50 Pokemon from other gens, mostly gen 8 that I can hunt that I don't own in any game. Then after that idk if I want to hunt specific Pokemon to use on competitive teams or what. I've never really been into competitive battling but idk maybe I'll give it a shot. Also I do want to hunt alt forms of Pokemon, like fire and water Tauros and Squawkabilly. Also it would be cool to have shinies of every form of Deerling and Sawsbuck.

Yeah I want to do that too but I have no idea how long it would take.

I also want to have a shiny of pre evolutions but that seems like even more work.

I can trade any Scarlet exclusives tonight since I'm off.

Also what would the best pokemon be for the upcoming Cinderace raid?

So if Cinderace doesn't have any poison or steel moves, Flutter Mane, Dachsbun and Azumarill should work well again. If it does have poison or steel, then Espathra will definitely be the way to go.

Also just got shiny Farigiraf and Frigibax :D

Logged back in and immediately got a second shiny Frigibax. I reset the spawns for hours and never got another, but, I did get a random shiny Bronzong, so that was cool. It looks nice in this game, it's all metallic.

I'm going to need to train one up then.

Lumina Crash, Psychic or Dazzling Gleam, Reflect and Roost probably the move set you want. Opportunist ability. EV train for special attack, defense, HP. Use Lumina Crash to drop its special defense, then once it cant go any lower spam your other attacking move. Preferably Psychic so you can terasteralize to psychic type. Also holding a Shell Bell.

Lmao

shiny slowbro get

only took 4 minutes

What's up with people bringing Slowbros into Cinderace raids and doing literally nothing. It's always 2 people bringing Slowbros too so half the team is just dead weight just spamming Iron Defense over and over and over and doing absolutely nothing to fight the boss. Am I missing something here.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/80292426?page=7#79

But that sounds like a strategy that can literally only work if everyone does it or in a solo setting. I was killing Cinderaces just fine with Espathra then everyone started bringing their Slowbros and it has been impossible ever since.

So I tried the Slowbro thing. Took a few tries to do it solo. It kept killing me with Acrobatics even with 3 Iron Defense up. I JUST barely managed to kill it the one time it worked. Took it into some online raids. And yeah for the most part it was just as useless as I was seeing other people use it. But. With proper support Pokemon that lower Cinderaces stats, help buff you, and put down Psychic Terrain. Yes. Stored Power Slowbro can in fact one shot it fairly easily. But it takes everyone to get one Slowbro ready asap.

Im still early gsme and still on one star raids.

So this morning I decided to hunt a Squawkabilly. Literally the last few seconds of the sandwich I spotted the shiny on a green variant. Unfortunate since I think it looks the worst on the green one. I'll probably hunt the others some other time though. Decided I want a Klawf. Sandwich hunted for 2 hours this afternoon, never saw the blue crab. Didn't even see a shiny Nacli. Just nothing. Got frustrated and decided to eat a water sandwich on a beach see if I could snag a Wiglett. Went to the beach directly south of Levincia. Immediately shiny Wiglett. 5 minutes later shiny Psyduck. 5 minutes later shiny Wiglett again. But that was all I got.

So now the gen 9 shinies I'm missing are:
Klawf
Tatsugiri
Great Tusk
Scream Tail
Brute Bonnet
Flutter Mane
Slither Wing
Sandy Shocks
Baxcalibur
Roaring Moon

So most of those I'm gonna have to play through Scarlet to get. Still, for the first time ever I might actually get a complete living regional shiny dex.
