Shiny Safari Kangaskhan CAUGHT in FireRed after 14,652 encounters! (331,455 total)
The trio has been completed. After a total of 331,455 encounters and 40 phases, Shiny Kangaskhan is mine. The last of the Safari Trio. It's absolutely surreal to have uploaded one, nevermind all three!
I had always had the idea of finding all three in my head but something in 2020 just really made me want to grab these for my collection. This is probably the biggest step forward for Gen 3 Shiny Living Dex I could take, with the Roaming Beasts already obtained. The Safari Trio are by far and above the hardest Pokemon to obtain in Gen 3 (eggs excluded).
I can't believe, in even editing, that I found three in a row. How does that even happen...
Thanks for watching as always!

Shiny Qwilfish in FireRed after 5,940 fishing encounters (+ Shiny Seadra & Shiny Horsea
Просмотров 8 тыс.Месяц назад
A little late of an upload for many reasons. Shiny Qwilfish in FireRed after 3 phases. This is a hunt I had been planning to do for a while and I finally got around to doing it. I really enjoy hunting in the Sevii Islands and don't get too much of an opportunity to do so. 40% is really comfortable and I'll for sure hunt the LeafGreen Remoraid someday soon. On the way, I completed the line for H...

This is a monumentally big leap forward in my quest for a Gen 3 Shiny Living Dex. 2 out of the 3 Safari Rares have been captured & I still can't believe while editing this video. If you're curious at all about the bait method, please see this document by ProfessorRex who took his time to ...

Hatching Shiny Omanyte in FireRed after 15,560 eggs

My first (successful) egg hunt in Gen 3 - Shiny Omanyte for my Gen 3 Shiny Living Dex. Probably a strange target to some but as I explain in the video, having already reset for one in Cinnabar Island, I decided to egg hunt it using the box swap trick. I really enjoyed this hunt though I will admit to being disappointed slightly that it didn't hatch shiny in Hoenn as a non-native species. This m...

After only 3 phases with two shiny Audino, I can't really ask for better than that. The actual phase luck for this quest has been very good. Two 20% targets after 3 phases each is quite good. Enjoyed this hunt a lot but I'm happy it's done. I don't think th...

Phase 1 for 40% Qwilfish is a beautiful rare 4% Shiny Seadra! I went into this hunt absolutely convinced I'd find one of these so I'm not totally surprised. It just seems that fishing hunts in FireRed/LeafGreen like to give you either this Seadra or the 15% Gyarados. A really cool shiny to find in the wild especially in Gen 4 considering how low % it appears. The deep blue is a very nice colour...

Two Shiny Aipom from this year's Safari Week. Caught one and failed one. I can't believe I caught the first one I saw. Aipom has a 45 catch rate and a 15% chance to flee so I'm incredibly blessed to have caught the first one I saw. Some people I've known have struggled big time with this target for a while. It came on my new German copy of Emerald which is helping me learn the language. Very pl...
5% Shiny Miltank in Emerald's Safari Zone after 1,328 random encounters! + Shiny Fail
Просмотров 10 тыс.Год назад
A fail and a reclaim. 2022 I found the first shiny Miltank which was my first 5% find in this area. She sadly fled after 5 balls but I knew I would reclaim her one day. Despite it being a tough catch, because of Hoenn's universal 15% to flee for all Pokemon, Miltank is only a 1/3 to catch which really isn't that bad. Hoenn Safari is easy mode compared to Kanto's Chansey, Kangaskhan and Tauros. ...

    Oddly enough, this video gives me some memories of my own shiny snivy hunt, I started my hunt a year and a half ago and the hunt took me over 480 hours which was made even worse due to an azurill hunt in xy I was working which was nearly taking just as long. During the several painful months I spent on the snivy hunt, I watched this video a lot so I would be a little bit more motivated to finish the hint and now that it’s been over a year since I finished the hunt, this video brings back some of those memories to me now.

    • @Sonikks
      @Sonikks 6 часов назад

      No, you can't do that. Emerald has broken RNG meaning that resetting the game returns the seed to 0. You need to keep your system running as you do your hunt, or you need to change the seed using the Battle Video method or the Lilycove Contest Painting trick. See my Beldum video for more information.

    • @giorgosgiannadakis5062
      @giorgosgiannadakis5062 5 часов назад

      Yes, I understand that there is no chain (no pokeradar). The reason I made that question its because I read here and there that if I shiny hunt with RAs, I need to have my gba turned on at all times or like 1 - 2 hours per shiny hunt session (supposly good for the different number of frames you can get and to avoid to hit the same ones) so I wanted to ask: Can I just have a couble of tries with RAs or lets say 10 RAs and then turn off my console and than continue at other time? does this somehow makes the frames same as before so i must keep my gba on for a long time to get many different frames?

Perfect timing too cause i recently lost my siberian husky Taz in real life and always called him a bear.
