He took a while but my Shiny Cranidos finally appeared after 12,063 fossils restored. People were very kind to me during this hunt and gave me plenty of fossils to restore per restore. I was using 30 fossils per reset which absolutely made this hunt easier. It was almost impossible to hunt this with anything else though due to the constant back and forth in the building. A little annoying but very much worth it.
Next up is Bronzor which I'm already hunting. Hopefully that doesn't go over odds.

Shiny Wimpod finally appeared after going four times over odds. I was actually watching a few videos where people went 16k+ for it and I thought mine would never go that high. I also said to someone I need a quick hunt to hunt next to roamers. Never say that, lol.
Im really happy this shined. Its such a vibrant shiny and I love the evolution a lot. The abilities are a bit hindering but its a very powerful Bug type which is one of my favourite types.
On to Alolan Sandshrew to complete my team before taking on the League. Thanks for watching!

2 Shiny Zigzagoon after a quick number of encounters! I found one during the first phase of my Shroomish hunt and then another recently while hunting Taillow. I know Zigzagoon isnt the most exciting shiny in the wild but it was something I didnt have a live video of on my channel. I decided to combine these two just for archiving my shinies here.
I actually really like the Zigzagoon line. Its a nice shiny, it has Pickup & they can be shiny HM users which is always useful.

My first Shadow Shiny took a while but I’m so glad I opted for this hunt. I can honestly say that of all the shinies I currently own, this is comfortably one of the proudest achievements. Pokemon Colosseum is such an underrated game that seems to finally be getting some attention not just from shiny hunters, but in general.
This hunt was tedious. There was a lot of RNG involved. Critical hitting the Croc, Grimer poisoning my Pokemon that have Synchronize, not catching it first ball. The most Balls it took if I remember right was 8 which was a super long reset but that really wasn’t anything close to normal 1-3 was usually the range.
Croconaw doesn’t have the best shiny sadly but wow the evolution does. I’m so, so happy with this hunt and the fact I get to bring you yet another live Shiny Shadow Pokemon. Let me know if you’d like to see more of these in the future.

![[LIVE] Shiny Wurmple after 3,848 Pokemon seen in Brilliant Diamond + Evolutions](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LENciLqWV_Q/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Wurmple after 3,848 Pokemon seen in Brilliant Diamond + Evolutions
My 2nd team member pops up a little under odds, Shiny Wurmple! Pretty happy with this one as I did use a Dustox on my original Pearl save file back in the day. A little throwback to Gen 4.
Eterna Forest is genuinely busted in these games. The encounters are fast enough with Sweet Scent/Honey but the 1/4096 plus the 2 Pokemon seen per encounter, it makes for a very easy and comfortable hunt for anyone. Id genuinely recommend this area if youre new to shiny hunting & you want to sample full odds.
Next up is Cranidos which Im already hunting. Good luck to all of you hunting!

![[LIVE] Shiny Shadow Scizor after 5,146 soft resets in Pokemon Colosseum (e-Reader cards)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LX1MdU2wufw/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Shadow Scizor after 5,146 soft resets in Pokemon Colosseum (e-Reader cards)
An under odds Colosseum hunt at last. Golden Scizor is mine. This model is incredible. I really wish they had made this its main series colours because its a big improvement on the lime green they gave it. This completes the additional Shadow Trio using the e-Reader cards in Togepi, Mareep & Scizor. Ive had these e-Reader cards for quite some time so to finally hunt these and complete them is great.
Ive since transferred it to Emerald and new save files made ready for my next targets in one of my favourite games.

![[LIVE] Shiny Omanyte in FireRed after 7,553 soft resets in FireRed (DTQ #5)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LuplWkMSJBI/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Omanyte in FireRed after 7,553 soft resets in FireRed (DTQ #5)
An under odds fossil at last! Shiny Omanyte joins my Dream Team and is the 5th member. My fossil luck up to now hasnt been the best so this was a welcome change of pace. I really like Omastar but as I mentioned in the video, I dont have a lot of opportunities to use it. It was very low levelled in the original Kanto games so I think FireRed/LeafGreen is a good balance as I can get it as early as 3 badges in. It looks super cute in Colosseum too.
Up next to Shellder which Im excited for though I wont be hunting that for a little bit.
