Once got a shiny pipulp in plat and I wasn't even hunting
I barely paused on the shiny Cyndaquil on 11:36 almost missed it kinda jumped in excitement when I did it!
Not related at all but you look like my 8th grade math teacher
Please can you tell me what song is on at 4:45
Lmao you get ridiculous on these reactions
Shiny hunting in the safari zone, you sir are a brave man.
I would have flipped a table if that shiny Pinsir ran from me 🤣😂
Ever heard of safari week?
@@ThomasSeeds no never
My first thought
God, safari week sounds so cool to me, but I’m not sure if I’d recover from the heartbreak if a shiny ran from me. Lowkey jealous of the people that do it.
before i was shiny hunting myself i always thought the reactions were really exaggerated but once you sat there for 19h yourself you understand the emotions when the expected 80h turn into measly minutes
Exaaactly! You get it!
FAAAACTS
I was about to say something like this myself
I once soft reset for like 10 hours shiny lugia struggled cause I wanted it in a pokeball , I’ll have you know sir I only cried in the shower for a bit 😢
@@evilways9173 Younger me would have needed a new DS XD
Shiny Cyndaquil starter is one thing, but I wonder if anyone's ever looked at their starters in HG/SS and witnessed all 3 starters being shiny at the same time. And then would come the choice...
That's called depression
Probably hasn't happened but who knows. Having 2 shiny starters is a much better possibility.
Nah no way, that is like 1 in 500 billion levels of luck. Just getting 2 in a row like Phin is 1 in 67 million.
I choose my favorite starter based on what shiny I get, I randomly pick starter pokemon until one becomes shiny, my 1st shiny starter is a female squrtile with sassy nature and then my second is a male Mudkip with sassy nature. Both sassy! 😆
@@IJustExploded 2 shiny starters in one reset has been found twice already, but never heard of the all 3 yet.
Alternative video title: Phin telling his games NO, and OH MY GOD.
“wHÆT WHÄÆT”
NO WAY
Lmao that meltdown with the Entei is when I paused the video 😂 no more of that. I completely understand the excitement but Jesus Christ dude just glitched out
@@B-ROYalty same here!
Bro honestly would love to watch this guy hunt but he’s def top 10 most annoying people I’ve listened to
“No way! Shiny Cyndaquil! That was for a joke!” Shiny Cyndaquil: “I ain’t playin no games”
Sly Cooper!!!
Phin: I’ve found over 50+ full odds shinies. Me: ah yes, sandslash
The shiny pinsir reminded me of being 12, running around in the safari zone and coming across one myself unintentionally. It was my first shiny ever and I was immediately heartbroken because I knew it would run. I threw a ball, it ran and I cried a little. Oh well
Listen I’m a simple man but the absolute unbridled bewilderment and excitement in all of these shiny finds gave me 15 years of life.
The Cyndaquil story reminds me of how I was resetting for Mudkip in ORAS. I did it on an off for a year, and picked it up again in college. I decided to reset my save file to get a new trainer ID. The very first Mudkip on the new save was shiny!
thats so awesome!! shinys are self aware i swear!!! 😳
My second ss reset was a shiny cyndaquil!
that mudkip came in like," so i herd yu liek shine mudkips"
"no shakes and it fled" man that hit home lmao
Shiny cyndaquil found his way back to you so many times, very wholesome
God I remember being there for the Lapras. That sh*t was SO damn nerve wracking each time it broke the ball and didn’t run. Thank Arceus he was looking upon you on that catch.
i like how his old one was just like soft no's and in every other one he just screams at the top of his lungs
Yea it's a little uncalled for lol
That cyndaquil tho. Losing two on accident, then getting another one is just insane.
Fun fact: My fist shiny was a Shiny Zubat, which I caught in my Original Gold version cartridge. The thing about Zubat is that you can evolve it into either Golbat or Crobat and actually use it in a Mini-game in Pokémon Stadium 2. This means you can actually play as your shiny Golbat or Crobat in Pokémon Stadium 2. And yes, it retains its shininess.
zubat evolves into golbat then crobat
First time seeing you, this video was an insta sub, truly your luck is astounding, I bow to thee
Your accidental shiny cyndaquil was insane glad I saw it live
Probably spelt that wrong
*cyndaquil lol

The feeling of back to back full odds truly is amazing.
its the only one I doubt, being around 1 in 64,000,000.
@@michaelwagner3485how would that work?
@@piercemanter9477basically, odds of the mudkip x odds of the zigzagoon (8192 x 8192) that comes to the odds of that happening being 1 in 67,108,864
What i take from these starter shiny hunts stories... is that RNGesus REALLY wants this man to have a shiny cyndaqil (also i did win the challenge to save it ...twice because i accidentally paused it again before it moved to the next scene)
Hey guys… after 5 hours, no phases, and 200 encounters I got my shiny authentic sinistea… on to the second one named it Realitea
nice!
Damn! You're pumping out great content, Blue! Halfway through this, and the hype is real!! 😁
Thank you so much!! I appreciate that! Got even better stuff planned!!
@@BlueBoyPhin your doing well considering your on 17k you yot a long way
@@shinykyogre7197 aye thanks a lot! Love your channel!
I love how when he doesn't catch the pokemon he is a good sport about it, that deserves a sub.
Wow catching that Lapras after 7 times of popping out is 0.02% chance of happening
"LUCKIEST IN THE WORLD NOT CLICKBAIT" Then fails to catch 80% of the shinies listed lmao
That’s what ya get for Shiny hunting in the Safari zone
But just finding the chansey and pinsir. Was pretty damn lucky
@@araelsongheart6918 luck depends on its recipients Outlook. I'd argue finding those shinies then losing them is incredibly unlucky, regardless of them popping up
@@sselluoss5935 “luck” is neither bad nor good without context. If something extremely unlikely occurs under circumstances that involve an individual, then that’s lucky. Regardless of whether the effect is good or bad. It’s just like saying “awesome” or “awful.” People attribute positive or negative connotations to certain words. If I say “man, that’s awesome” that doesn’t mean I’m talking about something good and it doesn’t mean I’m sarcastically talking about something bad, either. “Awesome” can refer to something bad too. Like that car accident I got into a few months ago was awesome. I was seriously awestruck. Luckiness is seen glass half full mostly, just like awesomeness. But if something is unlucky, it really shouldn’t mean that it was bad luck… it should mean that luck wasn’t a factor.
@@araelsongheart6918 I honestly don't care and not going to read. I'm busy
I absolutely love your reactions! 😅 And how you don’t get mad pissed when you lose them. And move on laughing.
I know I'm late but that Lapras is a 1 in 18317.312 to catch since you have to take in account 72% because of the amount of safari balls thrown and the 30% encounter rate and the shiny rate
Using 'and' probabilities (x and y - multiply the odds) to get 5 of the exact same natures, in the exact same order, twice, is 25 to the power of 10. Giving you a total odds of 1 in 95,367,431,640,625
Something I noticed as well which would probably make the odds much lower is the first 3 dratini have the same characteristics. The only possible way that could have probably happened otherwise is if both of those games were started at the same time and have the same Trainer ID and the dratinis that were bought were on the same frame. But seeing that the last 2 had different characteristics but the same nature I highly doubt that. Thats some crazy odds
Woah, really?! That's crazy! :O
So glad I could have been there for a good handful of these Phin! Enjoying the new style of content and can't wait to see what's to come!
I second this !! 💙
thanks so much bottlerocket!! youve been there for so many shines!!
please keep up the quality content my guy. also its nice to see all the memes and shit thrown in but not super over done
will do! thank you so much! im still kind of tweaking my editing style and learning as i go! im a 1 man show but the videos WILL improve! appreciate the support!
The amount of excitement you get when you find a shiny is really fun to watch. I get excited for you too!
I once found a shiny zigzagoon in a normal playthrough when you save prof birch. If i had waited a few seconds that same shiny frame couldve been the mudkip. Hurts me to this day.
That's...not how it works lol
That first encounter Cyndaquik reclaim is crazy. Good on you, Phin, good on you. 👏👏👏
These are all great shinies and I love your reactions they’re by far the best hopefully you’ll find tons more awesome shinies!
Ive been at work binging your videos haha keep up the good work! I was hooked on those obscure fact videos haha
I've been trying to hatch a shiny male Wooper for my boyfriend for an entire year now. I've found 3 shiny female Wooper. Not a single shiny male. An entire year. At least I can't stay made at their little dumb smiley faces. (Once, I shiny hunted a Chatot and while I was grinding it up, I found a shiny Golbat by complete accident. It was amazing! :D )
The little memes and edits you threw in were great lmao Good stuff Phin!
thank you plumbum!!!!
I think my most crazy shinies are my shiny darkrai and wandering latios and latias. Another time was when I got a shiny mudkip in alpha sapphire and I when to train it in the route after and immediately found a shiny zigzagoon and I didn't have any pokeballs so I was forced to knock it out
9:03 ”…hunting them (roamers) would make you an absolute mad lad.” Sonikks: Hold my beer
Safari hunters are a different breed lol. That pain of them fleeing, I couldn’t.
That Zubat tale hit me on a personal level. Heckin' grats!!
Zubat isn't the best, but it was my first shiny ever. So it always has a place in my heart
I cannot imagine a more masochistic experience than shunting the safari zone.
Wow... what exactly is your luck? I would like some~ Thank you for sharing these shiny hunting stories! They really make me excited to find my own dream shinies in the future (albeit casually)!
You’re my new favorite pokétuber!!! keep it up!!
You are a great sport man. Great video!
hey man i love the content and your editing, the quality of everything and the delivery is awesome! keep it up man
thanks so much!!
Another incredible video Phin! I didn't even know about your 1st reset Cyndaquil, that's insane! And what is even more insane - I had the EXACT same situation you had with Zubat - but for me it was Paras in the FRLG SZ. Found shiny Paras in the 4ks, failed it. Literally 20 minutes later, found the exact same shiny (15%) again and reclaimed it. It was so funny seeing that you got the same thing with Zubat!
11:50 making me feel some kinda way 😳💀 but i remember being there for that third quil ! and how you were so upset about the second one you didn’t even want to talk about it, but fer told me lmaooo
These reactions are solid 🔥🤣👌🏽
I decided to do some statistics, Enjoy! Dratini nature stats: (25^9)/(25^10) = 4% chance that two Pokémon in the same party slot share the same nature. 1/(25^5) = 0.00001024% chance that every Pokémon shares the same nature as it's party slot partner. Shiny odds are 1/1892, which converts to 0.012%. This means you are at least 1000x more likely to find a shiny than for this to happen. Zubat: 72.3% chance that you will have encountered after 10,512 attempts. (different than chance per attempt) 0.01434 % chance for two shinies to appear within 140 encounters. Which means overall, 0.0104% chance of this situation happening. Lapras: 8.6% chance that you will have encountered after 3688 attempts. 0.006561% chance to not flee for 8 turns. 52.97% chance to catch after 8 turns. Overall, a .0029888% chance of these things happening in sequence. Pinsir: 3.86% chance that you will have encountered a 4% spawn rate Pokémon after 8072 attempts. Raiku: 0.35% chance that you will have encountered a shiny after 29 attempts. Cyndaquil: 0.0122% chance that you will have encountered a shiny after 1 attempt (obviously). Mudkip: 61.1% chance that you will have encountered a shiny after 7740 attempts. 0.00746% chance that you will encounter a shiny right after the previous situation happening.
Gotta love the over the top reactions, best part of shiny hunt, yesterday i almost fell out of my chair when i found my shiny KENYA in pokemon crystal
Those reactions.... Some of these are truly insane
Ah yes... Double Shine... always intense when it happens! Was shiny hunting Ekans in Pokemon Let's Go: Eevee, got the Ekans, then immediately afterwards, a Shiny Rattata just popped up and said hello. First two shinies of that game, and I have the file still.
Genuinely some of the best reactions I’ve ever seen 😂 this needs more views
Man. Being a shiny hunter really is something. Probably nothing in this world excites me so much as different coloured Pokémon excite this man. I wish I had a passion like that.
The same thing happened to me with getting my shiny starter Pokémon and then getting a shiny the very next encounter and crying cause no pokeballs yet
I can’t believe the difference in luck (and also partly from persistence) I’ve seen 2 shinies in my life and only caught my be bc the other was in safari zone. My gf has been playing Pokémon since the first Gen and has never encountered a shiny Pokémon 😮
Same! The only shiny I have ever seen in any pokemon game naturally was a shiny machop in Leafgreen when I was like 7. I thought something was wrong with my game so I ran from it out of fear of it corrupting my game lol
@@geckoguy4141 //pokemon fan stare\\ "If time machines were real I would find you before that"
You have no idea how happy I am to get my shiny charmander in Soulsilver! Your videos have been keeping me from going insane and I give my thanks. Happy hunting!
Lmao saw all those except the zubat when you were live. Awesome vid phin me boi!
I love the insane enthusiasm! I thought I had passion for shiny Pokemon. I'm still trying for my White version for a shiny starter.
Good luck!! Which starter are you going for?
I love the crazy contrast to when your doing a scripted part of the video and your live reaction lol it’s hilarious 😂
I like how you seem to be such a calm person in your videos,and then a stream cut with you screaming like a mad man appears lmao,keep this up man, entertaining as hell
I’ve only ran across a shiny once or twice in my life of playing Pokémon . I remember when I was a kid I was freaking out, thanks for the sweet nostalgia. Going to buy a shiny magikarp card now :)
Lmao the shiny Zubat came back to flex on you and ended up regretting it 😂
I found a shiny Sandslash in the Safari Zone and it ran away. Sure I already had one in another game, but I love Sandslash's shiny.
I remember that same natures moment!!! Great vid bro!
phil tells his op lucky stories: OH NO!!! Me: Are you just me but with more shiny losses and more screaming?
oh my god. no way. great shiny hunting video bro, the reactions had me dying lmao
Couldn't watch this until the end, to many "NO WAY" for me.
Your entei reaction is the best and I saved the cyndaquil
I shiny hunted Araquanid in SWSH for 8 months, used EVERY method to increase my chances, would hatch Dewpider eggs while at the same time hunting them in Crown Tundra, it was a moment where I shed a TEAR once I found it and caught it. I immediately felt a sense of relief and accomplishment. BEST feeling ever when you finally get the one you’re hunting
I understand its really emotional to find those shinies but damn i hate streamers that scream into the mike.
Well then don't watch shiny hunters who spend a multitude of hours looking for a shiny that they get understandably excited for once they find one :)
I wouldn’t consider myself a hunter. I only got into it in Gen 8 but back in ORAS my first Entei encounter was shiny.
The moment you encounter a shiny, your dictionary gets reduced to "oh my god", "no way" and "what?" :D
I remember when playing diamond and pearl as a little kid, I didn’t know what was going on when I was in a cave, but I encountered a natural shiny zubat and caught it first ball and everything, I told my brother I think my games glitched, and later learned what shines were 😂
This guy has the absolute best attitude when the shiny runs. Inspiring to say the least
You forgot to turn off the shiny cheat on that last one and had to play it out hein? 😂
The Pokeballs going through the Lapras's eye got me
it gives me a good catching reaction to do soon hehe you made me smile thanks
Keep up this content dude, very entertaining!
I remember I was doing a shiny race with my cousins, we did masuda method, so not that lucky. But I got a 7 encounter shiny fenniken
still quite lucky considering that some cant get it 3 times over odds lol
From one shiny hunter to another I salute you!
This was a great video thank you 👏
I see I found another one of my kind
I miss you, Pheen! Hope you’re doing well!!!
I loved your shiny zubat moment in the safari zone because it reminded me of the time I found 3 shiny Zubats in a row while horde hunting for shiny Spheal. I eventually got my Spheal lol
I picked up an old copy of soulsilver about a month ago and jokingly told my roommate I’d give it 10 minutes of resets. 6 in, shiny cyndaquil!!
The natures all being the same in the gamecorner actually has to do with 3rd Gen RNG. You must have SR'd and spawned them on the exact same frames on both games
Except the natures in the Game Corner clip was HGSS, so gen 4.
My craziest shiny is still the triple dynamax adventures shiny Pokemon.
Lucky
My favorite shiny story of mine is how my best friend called me on my home phone in middle school, freaking out how she found a shiny unown in ss and the letter was the first initial of her name. I was so excited for her and I felt inspired to do a shiny hunt of my own in hg. My plan was to save in a patch of grass and soft reset for whatever reason (i was not smart) and as I'm walking into the grass I accidentally encounter a pokemon. FIRST ENCOUNTER I GOT A SHINY NIDORAN FEMALE. I was so flabbergasted i ran to my home phone again to call her back and freak out
I have never been so happy for someone on the internet, that I don’t know. His excitement is contagious.
Your reactions are so genuine I love it
thanks!
Every video I’ve watched you narrate so calmly, but god you have the loudest most extra reactions I’ve seen in any shiny hunter. Normally I’d find it annoying, if you weren’t such a good sport about failing some hunts.
love the reactions bro haha
Had the exact same reaction encountering a shiny Chansey from hatch three eggs field research. Lmao
A few years ago I was shiny hunting a starter in Soul silver and I actually managed to get a shiny cyndaquil in less than 15 minutes (I didn’t keep track of the amount of resets). I was very excited and I still have it.
Same. Managed to get a shiny Chikorita in like. Half an hour of attempts. Then later in the same run I got a shiny golbat.
This is why I just farm my shinies on pogo, this much dedication would trigger me if I lost a shiny!
Let's go, Phin!! You're a master! (Also yes, I won the CyndaPause League KEKW)
Those shiny safari zone fails are always so painful. Especially the Chansey
