Short and easy guide on Shiny Hunting using eggs and the masuda method in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet! I’ve been asked a lot in streams how you breed eggs for shinies and I hope this guide can be useful! As always if you have any questions or if I got something wrong, please feel free to let me know down below in the comments and I’ll respond to every comment!

I found four shinies last week on Violet and I'm now trying to get a shiny Eevee with Breeding a Chinese Male Jolteon and my Female Sylveon
I did a shiny hunt through Masuda method for Sprigatito and got one really fast!
After I was done training him, I hatched the leftover eggs and the very last egg was another shiny T_T No shiny charm here yet. The odds are crazy and I love it! ♥ Going to try for Pawmi and Cetoddle next!
My first Masuda hunt is Zorua. It’s been my favourite since basically forever and it was the first Pokémon I ever saw. It’s only right that it be my first Masuda shiny.
Great tutorial. It's quick, and straight to the point
So shiny charm actually helps with breeding
Is there a discord community from your channel? REally helpful the link trade thanks
I’m trying to get a shiny Sprigatito. So basically all I have to do is have a foreign ditto and a foreign Sprigatito and use those 2 for breeding? that’s called the masuda method? do I have to level up and make that foreign sprig evolve into it’s 2nd form in order to breed with my foreign ditto or just a sprig will do?
Question, how many Boxes should be dedicated for gathering Eggs before I start hatching the Eggs up (5 at a time with a Flame Body lead Pokemon)? I saw another Shiny Breeding guide YT video b4 this one that suggested 3 Boxes (about 90 Eggs) but should I go 1 or 2 extra Boxes more or is 3 Boxes good enough?
This person also mentioned that it is possible to reset the game after hatching every Egg and not getting a Shiny so you can save up money and Sandwich ingredients (Just make sure that Autosave and Give Nicknames are turned off first to speed up the breeding and hatching process and then save the game b4 starting a Picnic.). This also avoids wasting too much waste in mass releasing Egg Pokemon that aren't Shiny once you do end up finding a Shiny Egg Pokemon from your Boxes.
Btw, just throwing this out there:
I always go to the very first town you come across in the game (Los Platos) and buy an Egg Power 1 ice cream for 900 money at the ice cream stand near the Pokémon Center. But since this video explained- and showed where to simply buy something that gives you Egg Power 2 rather than make it yourself, I decided to try it out. It appears to NOT be worth it. The ice cream is 900 bucks. The sandwich is 2800. From the ice cream I got 57 eggs. From the sandwich I got 62. Barely any difference for that much more money. I suggest going for the ice cream or perhaps making your own sandwiches if that's cheaper; I haven't really tried my hand at making my own food much lol.
So if my ditto has the abbreviation ENG that means it’s foreign correct?😅
When I have a Korean ditto and a male riolu (I have tried with female riolu too) but they won’t make any eggs what do I do I also have egg power?
So does the ditto just have to be from any country that speaks a different language. Like if you are from the uk then a Spanish or French ditto would work?
im hunting cetoddle right now
Iam currently doing wooper after seeing this wooper
Question can you boost the shiny odds further by using a shiny boosted sandwich??
Thanks for this video. I'm trying to get my shiny Goomy 🙂
Do you know a good way to get a certain Pokémon from a different region?
Nice Video man! Btw whats your strat on removing the non shiny pokemon that hatch? Do you keep them or do you release them one by one?
appreciate it man, only question is, how would i get a foreign pokemon that i want to breed. not as in ditto, but how would i get lets say a foreign quaxly or can i use my own quaxly. thank you! really helpful!
So there is no sandwich that boosts the shiny odds for eggs?
Is there a specific sandwich I can make that has both egg power and sparkling power?
thanks for the video! i did 3,000 random full odds encounters of Shroomish before getting tired of that, so i'm gonna give this a shot. wish me luck!!
Maybe this is a dumb question but does the chances of the eggs being shiny change if one of the parents is shiny? Thx!
Thank you for this I was concerned if I was doing it correctly and turns out I am though didn’t know about the flame body portion should make this even faster!
Is the trade random or you have to have someone enter the code too
So if my game is an English game and I have an English ditto with a Japanese sprigatito, Does it still work? Or do I need a ditto of another language as well
Do you know if the shiny-ness of your Pokémon is determined when you get the egg or when it's hatched? Ideally I'd like to get a box full of eggs and hatch them, then just reset so I don't have to keep picnicking for eggs.
do they eggs just appear if you wait or do i have to walk?
My first Masuda hunt EVER is Glimmet. I love Glimmora so much and the blue on the shiny is such a pretty shade. Currently doing it as we speak haha wanted to make sure I was doing it right though since it's my first time so thank you for the video!
Btw, for the egg Sandwich if it’s buff is currently active we don’t need to eat it again am I right? we only eat another Sandwich if the buff worn out?
Thank you!! i really needed this.
I’m doing this too get a shiny toadcruel and it’s pink is really nice good luck to all
Up to nearly 180 zorua eggs with a shiny charm and so far no luck ðŸ˜
can you breed without sandwich?
I thought you needed only one foreign pokemon to masuda hunt
Heya, I'm kind of confused. I'm currently hunting Sprigatito, and I want to know, can I use my starter and a Japanese Sprigatito or will that not work, since they're both different languages?
Wait so for the mesudo method requires two foreign mons, or can it be one of my mons and a foreign ditto. So that would be ENG for my mon and JAP for the ditto. Does the method still work?
How long should I wait before checking my basket? With egg power l.1 I open my picnic then wait around 5 minutes before collecting ten eggs, but sometimes it changes. I keep a little timer so I kmow when I'm to check, is this the best method?
