  1. "You don't know if they have explosion, a recoil move, etc."
    My first shiny in scarlet was a stunky, and I didn't realize when I caught it that it has explosion AND memento. I didn't save before running into it. I did manage to catch it, but I didn't realize that it had a 50% chance of just dying if I failed that first ball toss.

  2. This does in fact work on outbreaks that are right outside of a town. I'm getting a bunch of Bombirdier outside of Medalia for friends. However, after catching a few I got the "There aren't many left" message which I believe means that if you were to keep catching over and over again the outbreak would eventually disappear.

  3. found a shiny rotom right by a city. managed to snag up a whole bunch for me and my friends. I grabbed 4 extra, 3 for the suprise trade on christmas day and 1 to offer you (or the 4 to suprise trade if you do not want it).

  4. I can confirm this works with outbreaks. As an aside, I was even able to let the day roll over, change outbreaks, go into system settings, reset to the original day, and then save and it kept the original outbreak and shiny.

  5. Thank you so much for this! I was able to get it to work with a Dachsbun outbreak just outside of Alfornada. I'm gonna fill another box and wonder trade em all on the 25th, I agree that would be a great day to do it with new players in abundance. Any nickname suggestions for them? Howliday? Hot Cocoa? Lucky? ✨️

  6. Yesterday I had a mass outbreak of Bombirdier right outside Medali. I was too sick, so I didn't get a shiny, but I just set the time back one day before logging in today and the outbreak stayed. After a bit of running in and out of town, I finally found a shiny. The power is in my hands now.

    Edit: a friend of mine's birthday is coming up, and I definately plan to give him one. Haven't decided how many I'll catch yet, but if I catch more, some surprise trades feel like a really fun idea.

  7. Me hanging around 200 Psyducks "aww no Shiny!" runs into a shiny toxicitry the first time I spot a group ingame

    It was my first shiny ever, so in all excitement I completely forgot about this method smh. I even saved in town because I forgot to save after catching it. Ah well!

  8. Corviknight is my favourite pokemon (such a majestic beast). Once of the first things I did once I was able to roam freely was get a Rookidee. So my aim after I have completed the game is to actually get myself a shiny one…

  9. So glad you gave credit to Sidearms! I saw his video about it the other day. He and the crew are great! It's strange in a funny way to see informative Austin reference goofball Side hahaha <3

  10. So I just had this happen blindly, just looked it up to see if it was known. Difference though is I caught my duplicates in Socarrat Trail, far from any town, and I saved immediately after catching the first without moving.

  11. Just ran into an Electrode literally right outside Medali! Didn't think I'd be lucky enough to make use of this but here we are, thanks so much Austin!
    Edit: this may have been patched with the update, or maybe Electrode was TOO close to town? Either way it looks like Great Ball the Electrode will remain my only shiny from this lucky encounter as I can't get the dupe to work. Still I'm definitely not complaining about a free shiny
