Pokémon Emeralds Broken RNG Explained! (For Shiny Hunters)
updated
This Ralts is the most iconic uncatchable shiny for me and a big reason of why I started Uncatchable Week - and I am so glad to have found it now. The Zigzagoon is a nice bonus find to boot!
It looks like putting off editing & uploading my shinies is a bit of a trend now lol
I've been busy, I've been phasing, but I'm still hunting when I can. Hopefully more uploads coming soon!
As promised in the video, here is a list of *most* of the uncatchable shiny Pokémon you can find!
twitter.com/ShinyCollector_/status/1354570054776438789?s=20
We also have a few new uncatchables since then, including Starly w/ starters in BDSP, catch tutorial Bidoof in BDSP, Arwin’s Pokémon in Titan battles in SV, and Titan dex entries after their fight in SV! There are also a couple more not listed that are so niche, I’ve even missed them, but any uncatchables count!
Let me know what you plan to hunt and if you have any questions! Happy uncatchable week!!

There's honestly not much to say that wasn't in the video! I obsessed with this hunt, so finishing it truly feels like the end to an era. But I'm already working on prepping the next one!
I do plan on making a better-constructed Pokewalker shiny hunting tutorial video, but hopefully the explanation in this video will suffice until then :)
I also found out while making this video, that you can connect your pokewalkers to one another and receive gifts (items), so that's pretty neat!
It’s also interesting to note, I lost 25 pounds during this hunt! I was already working on weight loss but my cardio was definitely lacking. This isn’t the sole reason for it, but it absolutely helped :)

I started the hunt for this Tyrogue during my IRL with friends but it was a bit too slow for that, since I was trying to get quick shinies with them. So, I put it off and came back to it after coming home! Now that my Mac is setup for capture cards, it works great for side hunts like this!
This Tyrogue in Mt. Mortar is a dream shiny hunt that I rarely see people do, I would love to see more people go for this pokemon!
Here is the link to Logan's Tyrogue - one of the coolest, most dedicated, hunts I've ever seen:

This is the most fun I've ever had while shiny hunting.
It was an incredible experience to hunt with friends IRL, I've always wanted to meet up with friends to hunt, and nearly did a couple years ago before the world took a pause. I'm glad we were finally able to meet up and get these 10 shines live! And not only that, but I met many more awesome people that I didn't expect to, like AbsolBlogsPokemon, Gonjona, and Broseidon! I set out to get Mewtwo, Hitmonlee, and Hitmonchan, but I am absolutely stoked to get Jellicent as a bonus!
Sorry that I didn't really explain my encounter rates or setups here, I didn't keep count and with this IRL vlog style the setup explanations didn't really fit in.
for a brief summary of the setups:
Mewtwo - after gaining 16 badges in Heart Gold and Soul Silver, you can access Cerulean Cave in Kanto and you find mewtwo at the end.
Hitmonchan & Hitmonlee - in Fire Red and Leaf Green, you get a gift of either one of these for beating the fighting dojo, adjacent to Sabrina's gym, in Saffron City. You only get 1 per save.
Jellicent - in Black 2 and White 2, in Undella Bay, one of these will show up weekly. In B2, it is Male Jellicent on Mondays. In W2 it is Female Jellicent on Thursdays. If you save in front of it, it will remain in the overworld even outside of these days, so long as you do not leave the area. They have their hidden ability.

I'm also pretty proud of this thumbnail because, most of the times, I have no clue what to do for them or I have poor execution. But this time, I had a plan and succeeded!
I know that this video is a compilation of reruns, but I promise the next one will make up for it. Just wait to see what I have in store for you!

I waited ttoo many years after finding Bulbasaur to go for Charmander, so I decided to waste no time on this Squirtle, and now my Kanto starters are complete! And from my favorite games, Heart Gold and Soul Silver! I will likely upload a compilation of the trio one week after this video, unless I don't :)

Hi! I found shiny Bulbasaur back in 2017 and have been wanting to go for this and Squirtle in Heart Gold and Soul Silver pretty much the whole time since. So, I'm finally getting around to the rest of these gen 1 starters! I love getting starter pokemon outside of their originally game, so these Kanto ones in a Johto game are no exception :)
Squirtle will be coming soon!

Absolutely mind blowing to have found this the same day as the gen 1 Larvitar! So far I'm 10 phases in for gen 3, so hopefully that one is around the corner! I'm having a lot of fun with this quest, I hope you all are enjoying it too!

This is a hunt I've wanted to do for a long time and a quest I've wanted to start for about as long! I've already gotten the generation 2 larvitar as well, so keep an eye out for when that releases!

I didn't intend for it, but it's kind of fitting that there was a 2 year time gap here since the Pokemon kind of time travelled themselves to become shiny! Although this is no longer for a subscriber special, I will *most likely* still do something special when we do reach 50,000 :)

This is a hunt I've wanted to do for a while but I never got around to. Seeing everyone hunt theirs in BDSP, in combination with Arbor Week, gave me the motivation to finally get around to this! I know it would be easier and more authentic in gen 8, but I prefer gen 4, it's more exciting with rarer odds for me and also more nostalgic of when I originally did this event as a kid :)

Honestly, 5 months lag on this upload isn't so bad considering the previous 2 on the badge quest were 11-12 months lag lol
I'm trying to upload more regularly, so please watch and share the content so I can get this channel back up and running!

Hey everyone! Not much to say really, I had a lot of fun with this year's uncatchable week and was stoked to see so many people participating! Now onto some hunts I can keep!
I ended off at 2500 for Ralts and 2200 for Juniper's Cinccino, so I'll pick those back up next year!

This is the second ever Uncatchable Week and it will take place March 26-April 3; the Saturday through the following Sunday surrounding April Fool's day!
Here is a tweet with pictures of the lists mentioned in the video. Keep in mind there are more uncatchable shinies than just the ones named on these lists! twitter.com/ShinyCollector_/status/1354570054776438789
Something I feel like some of you may ask about: 2+ shiny patches at once, 2+ Johto starters at once, or 2+ horde shinies at once. I personally don't see these as uncatchables since you *could* catch either, you're just forced to choose one over the other. It would also be pretty hard to do these for the week since finding two shinies at once is such a rare occurrence! However, it's an event just for fun so if you want to do one of these please feel free to go for it!
Similar to that note, I'd also exclude Safari Zone shinies from "uncatchables" since you *can* catch them, it's just dependent on RNG. And besides, we have Safari Week yearly for that anyways :)
I was ecstatic to see that Growlithe got a Hisuian form, so of course I went for it immediately! Even though I already I already 'completed' my Growlithe Generation Quest, I'm considering this an extension of that, and will do so again in gen 9 :)
If you haven't seen the quest, I recommend checking it out! I hunted a full odds Growlithe in every generation, in order, including gen 1! In the following link, you can find the quest. The first 8 videos go over each individual hunt for that generation & include any phases along the way and the 9th video in the playlist gives a rundown of the quest in general and just showcases the Growlithe: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAafVhzd7TUjhOn654AXrs1dYEVtURsVO

This shiny is almost a year old at the time of uploading. I slowed down with my content and then took some time away from it in total, and now I've been feeling ready to gear back up! I hope you enjoy this video as the 4th installment for my X badge quest, and look forward to more content coming soon!

Having Speed do the intro made this take longer than it otherwise would have lol oops
I definitely slacked on making this video, I finished this hunt by getting Trapinch about 5 months ago. But life, you know?
Anyways, I hope you enjoy/ed this video, I've got a few more videos I'm hoping to get out soon for you all!
Shoutout to SpeedTwister96, who is still hunting this even though I finished it 5 months ago. Thanks for the $15 and the voice recording :)

I'd say this was a pretty successful first Uncatchable Week, 3 is a pretty solid amount! Thank you to everyone who participated, I'm glad y'all joined me to intentionally fail shinies!
Q: Why would you hunt uncatchable shiny Pokémon?
A: Because shiny hunting is mostly about the moment of finding a shiny. I also wanted to show that it’s just a video game, we shouldn’t take it too seriously.

Even though the phases went long, I'm glad I was able to get a furfrou and a couple Skiddo throughout this! A lot of people think XY hunting is super easy, but I hope this helps to kind of disprove that. It does have many methods, but full odds in it is still as arduous as in other games.

I've thought about how I wanted to do this video for too long but in the end just a simple announcement showing my personal excitement and showing some options seemed the best! ...and easiest!
This is the first ever Uncatchable Week and it will take place March 27-April 4; the Saturday through the following Sunday surrounding April Fool's day!
Here is my original tweet announcement, with pictures of the lists if you had trouble seeing them. Keep in mind there are more uncatchable shinies than just the ones named on these lists! twitter.com/ShinyCollector_/status/1354570054776438789

The Badge Quest is over after about 8 years. I started hunting the starter on July 27, 2013 and have now finished this final hunt on February 10, 2021. This Pichu took 17,001 eggs & ~567 hours and is my longest hunt in terms of hours to date. Absolutely worth it. For those interested, this Pichu cannot migrate, but I don’t migrate my shinies anyways so personally I’m not affected.
A lot of you already have a problem with this hunt before even seeing it. At the end of the day, I did this hunt for fun for myself, it doesn't affect anyone else so if you have a problem with it then you should re-evaluate what's important. It's an 11+ year old video game.
Here is the cheat needed to allow Pichu to breed, for those interested. Press L to activate, if the Pichu are breeding then it works! (Not sure if you can MM this or not, I assume you would be able to with a male foreign parent or ditto)

I accidentally encountered a Gabite while playing through Platinum to set up for my Arceus hunt.
*ahem shameless plug* youtube.com/watch?v=MI1-lF5Mrjk
I didn't know you could find wild Gabite here, so I checked for repel tricks nd sure enough this one existed! Also, for anyone curious, it does not appear in the wild in D/P unfortunately.
This Tentacool was discovered by fans in around July/August 2020. I would write a longer description but I'm pretty tired.

I'm actually uploading this within a couple hours of getting it, that's out of character for me. I literally heard about this hunt Sunday morning, started Sunday night, finished Monday afternoon. Insanely quick! I forgot to do a nature guess because I was too shocked but it was Lax, not the worst! The "Nah fam. not today." was because I had a hunt there from before but stopped hunting it for a little bit so it was just a blank screen.
Huge shoutout to Deadbear for this, tysm for helping this become possible and good luck on yours!
shoutout as well to Stars for actually making this romhack with lock removed.

I spent years trying to figure out how to get this event from decchi.bin onto my physical games, so I am absolutely excited to finally do it and share this piece of Pokemon history with you all! I was so excited for this hunt and this event, I even went out and spent $35 a custom overlay to commemorate it lol! Also, I promise to try harder with uploads and not slack as much...
Full disclosure: this is *not* fully legit. Non-official devices were used to get the event onto the cart. It will not transfer through bank/home. That said, I personally believe this to be the most legitimate way to get the event but that’s debatable. There is no fully legitimate way to get this event/this arceus, so honestly using less than legit methods are fine by me.

Some information I wanted to include for this video: I’d like to dispel some misinformation. I’ve heard people say these starters are the worst starters and that they take 10 minutes per reset. But they’re actually a minute and a half per reset if you check the summary instead of throwing it out into battle to check (if you do the latter it’s 2 minutes). This means that diamond and pearl starters are the same pace and gen 7 starters are slower regardless of which version you choose. And if you account for odds differences, Diamond, Pearl, platinum, black, white, black 2 and white 2 starters are all slower. So yeah these starters aren’t THAT daunting, give it a try!
I'm stoked to start this badge quest! I haven't really played this game since it was released so this will be a lot of fun re-experiencing it with a shiny team!

To answer some questions: These are 1/8192. These do not transfer to main series.
These are some very fun and very fast hunts, I'd definitely recommend them if you don't mind the fact that they cannot transfer!

I really don't have a reason for doing this. I just wanted to try it out and showcase these two different types of uncatchable shiny pokemon in the GameCube games. RIP to the Linoone and Noctowl but it was worth it, still had fun finding these! I have many shiny zigzagoon and I've found shiny Noctowl in Colosseum a few months ago so not too bad of a loss!

Honestly this is one of my favorite shinies, it looks so good in XD! Also I've got one more GameCube shiny video before taking a break from these two amazing spinoffs, so I hope you guys look forward to it!

I love these colosseum shinies, but unfortunately this is the last one I'm catching for a while before moving on to other hunts.

I started this as an impromptu hunt for Safari Week after Dratini ended a lot sooner than expected, and in turn this Tauros took a bit longer than expected. I'm still glad to have done this hunt, and even set a new personal record for "most failed shiny"!

This is the culmination of a year of hunting. I really tried to highlight special aspects from each generation and overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! Also a quick shoutout to Tom, BlueBisharp28. Back in May 2019, he told me that he found a glitch allowing him to hunt Growlithe in gen 1, and that kind of sparked me looking into each generation for it and doing this quest! He also may have discovered a glitch that's going to start my next Generation Quest...

I also want to give a thanks to “Im a blisy” for helping answer a few questions for me on the battle CD’s and battle simulators.
My bad on the Johto starters, I thought it was 1 per game but it’s one per Mt. Battle run, sorry for that!

I'm stoked that this lock removal worked, I tried it on a different type of hunt first and that didn't go so well, so I'm glad to see a success with it! Next week I'll make a guide on hunting XD that will include lock removal, I'll add that link to this description and if I forgot please remind me! This hunt was brutally slow, thankfully adding a few extra games made it better.
Check out Chrystalials' channel! Without his help I wouldn't have been able to hunt this! youtube.com/user/Chrystalials

I'm stoked to be done with this quest, and I've already got plans for the next one! It's so useful that Gen 8 added some out-of-battle abilities like flashfire, definitely helps hunters! I will be uploading a compilation of all 8 Growlithe later in roughly a month. And shout out to my girlfriend for loaning me her shield so I could double hunt this!

This hunt has always been on my to-do list and the hunts I had going on were painfully slow, so I used this Snorlax as a bit of a break from those slower ones. Even though it was over-odds, it was pretty fast-paced so not too bad!

I am SHOOK that this was only 2 phases! I've moved on to Tauros for the rest of Safari Week, hopefully it doesn't take too long!

I was attempting Full Odds SOS but the Growlithe shined on a 20% spot rather than call, still pretty cool and I didn't have to phase! I actually do have the final Growlithe finished too, to be uploaded later (expected date: Jun 27).
If you're curious on how to hunt SOS but at Full Odds, here is a tutorial: youtu.be/n2pv5rULuiI

It genuinely helps me focus better, I use it for school more than hunts, but it could be beneficial for hunting too!

I got this less than an hour after my last upload, Slugma. Both were insanely cool shinies to me so I freaked out for getting both so closely to one-another! I did use shiny lock removal to hunt this, so I acknowledge that it is not 100% legit, but that's totally fine with me! I'm glad to have gotten this beautiful shiny in fourth gen.
Here's the video with information on removing this lock:

I'm glad this one came so quickly, it definitely makes up for the long Noctowl hunt! I hope you're all liking these gamecube hunts because I'm already a couple thousand deep into the next two!

This was my longest hunt in SWSH by a long shot, and my longest 1/4096 hunt too, so I'm glad it's over!
