casually hunting for a tiny or alpha shiny rufflet while waiting for another good outbreak to spawn
would love to see mawile and feebas huntable in dlc even though water hunts are cancer

anybody know if saving at the camp is absolutely necessary for the outbreak method?
also does the game notify you if you try and release a shiny
i think thats my biggest fear, accidentally mass releasing one

I should try for an Alpha, but that's a little too much for me. Took about 5 hours all up.
5 female, 1 male.

the save at the camp is 100% necessary because outbreak seeds are separate from map seeding and weird
It probably doesn’t warn you about shinies since it doesn’t warn about alphas but haven’t tested shiny release

Are shinies more common in PLA? I've gotten two so far just running around gathering mats and I'm not all that far into the game yet.

Yes. They're almost giving them out like candy.

it does warn you
same base rate but it's easier to increase it

thanks.
im watching some japanese dude try and do it and he's not saving, and hasn't found anything. told him to save last time and he got a shiny within 10 minutes. yet he switched back to not saving lol
I feel like the english community is just way more knowledgeable about this stuff
swarms are more common
otherwise they're the same rarity. You just run into way more pokemon without having to actually engage, so you end up seeing way more shinies
thanks, that's a relief

posted about my trapinch phase in last week's thread, found another on Sunday

Pretty much, yeah. I’m playing through the game and exploring a bit and have found three shiny Geodude, and one Petilil, Roselia, Carnivine and Parasect. Wonder if I’ll fill a team of offcolored Grass types or shiny pebbles first.

>>What are currently you hunting?
Oshawott in Pokémon White
>>How are you hunting it?
Soft Resetting, just passed 7200
>>Previous successes?
Pic related, was playing PLA this week and have found 6 full/half odd shinies and an outbreak Dustox.
>>What missing Pokémon would you like to shiny hunt in a Legends Arceus DLC?
Haven't finished the story so not sure what they can do with DLC, would be nice to see some older mons but would prefer more Hisuian Forms.

Found my first shiny alpha just roaming around. Was the alpha luxio spawn in obsidian fieldlands

got 2 togepi today and probably one of my more wanted shinys in this game
not sure if i should evolve Qwilfish or not

I ended up getting the female alpha but too much of a dumbshit to get the screenshot off my switch. Cute nature too, suits the Espeon I'm gonna evolve it into.
I got about 25 male alphas, 12 shiny eevees, and 3 full odds shinies on the trip to the mass outbreak, 2 snorunts and a swinub.

Trying to get all hisuian forms

Here are my regular shinies. All randomly found except for the starters and the ponyta.

How many mons are in an outbreak total? It varies right? I haven't counted all mine but I think I've seen from 11-16 total.
