My third member of my Dream Team Quest shined underodds! This file is giving me some good luck at last. I really like this shiny, you don't see too many shiny Joltik at all. I love spiders in real life so I'm always down to hunt some shiny arachnids in Pokémon (although I think it's more based on a flea as its first form). Galvantula is a stunning shiny for sure.
Chargestone Cave is a really nice place to hunt by the way. If you're doing any sort of quest, I'd heavily advise this area. There are some super nice targets here. I got Ferroseed first phase here.
My next target is Cubchoo, which is another high % repel trick target in Twist Mountain. First I need to EV train this spider flea and then get cracked.
Thank you all for watching as always. Good luck on the hunts!

The second member of my White 2 Pass Power Quest is a Shiny Dunsparce! Pleasantly surprised with this one. Im really enjoying the variety in the routes Im hunting lately. This one was a very late addition to 2021. I hadnt originally intended to hunt here but I quite liked the idea of Unfezant, Azumarill or Leavanny. Those are quite common in other places so I think Ill target them a little later on.
Im already hunting Excadrill in the Dust Clouds with Bianca in Reversal Mountain. Hope to bring that to you soon.

Three Shiny Spearow down, another three needed for the ultimate Dream Team Quest. In all seriousness, I found these three while phasing for Ekans (40%) so I got quite unlucky phase-wise here. Its a bit annoying but hey this is a shiny I dont have yet live so its another video plus its the price you pay for hunting in FireRed/LeafGreen. I remember reading somewhere that there isnt a more widely distributed Pokemon in any game (aside from Magikarp) than Spearow in these games. It is literally everywhere.
I dont mind Spearow but Fearow is my least favourite shiny of all time. The Pokemon itself isnt too bad though and they look interesting in Colosseum for sure.

My 4th Shiny Run member has arrived. I love this shinys design & colours. The origin of Copperajah is also extremely interesting. I believe this is based on the Indian elephants that were brought to the UK and other countries from Indian during the colonial period.
Im very glad this didnt go overodds by much. This hunt required a lot of concentration due to the camera angle in the Wild Area so hunting on my DS was practically impossible or at least at the expense of efficiency. It was a more manual hunt than any of the others Ive done thus far, Sobble excluded.
Already evolved him into Copperajah and it has really helped me pick up some badges & progress through the game. Im really enjoying my playthrough of the Galar region.

![[LIVE] Shiny Tornadus after 1,878 soft resets in Black (+ Therian Forme)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H7XBQNhtDw8/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Tornadus after 1,878 soft resets in Black (+ Therian Forme)
The second of the Kami/Weather trio in Black and White has been obtained. I went to 14,000+ for Thundurus so I was blessed with a much shorter hunt this time with Tornadus. I do think these are kinda underrated as far as shinies go. They’re really interesting Pokemon with a good amount of lore and creation put into them.
If you’re curious about hunting these yourself, I recommend you obtain the form before hunting as it’ll really speed up your resets. I used Johnstone’s video on the 3DS app Dream Radar, reverted them to their normal form using the Reveal Glass, and then sent them to Black and White. Here’s the video for that here; https://youtu.be/BNbXfuTocvU
Give John a sub while you’re there, please!
They really scaled down the roamer mechanics in Gen V with the community referring to these as pseudo-roamers. Their location is limited based on the time of day and you can see which route yours will be on and when here; https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Roaming_Pok%C3%A9mon#Generation_V
Sadly roamers have all but left the series at this point as they went even further in Gen 6 by near-enough removing them (and they’re locked in Gen 6 so who cares really…)
I hope you found this video interesting!

![[LIVE] Shiny Cramorant after 5,974 encounters in Pokemon Sword (Full odds)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H9NUKe7okM8/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Cramorant after 5,974 encounters in Pokemon Sword (Full odds)
My final team member, shiny Cramorant! I initially started this hunt on Route 9 where its a 40% target with Pincurchin, Octillery & Kingler. I had absolutely no idea you could find it in the same area as Cufant though with Storm Drain to make it 50% in rainy weather. I did 1,800 there and the rest here.
I cant express how much I adore this Pokémon. I know I say this a lot but it might be my favourite of this Gen. Its so difficult to decide on what actually comes out on top so I guess I should reserve judgement until I beat the game.
Sorry for the few cuts in the video btw. I keep getting interrupted because my brother wants to see which shiny Ive found.

I fished up two shiny Magikarp during my Feebas hunt in Ruby and decided to simply put them in the same video. Theyre not the most amazing or interesting shinies in the world obviously but I dont have a live one in 3rd Generation so why not upload them. Plus, the Colosseum showcase!
I found a random Magikarp while looking for my Feebas tile when I was a kid so this hunt and find was quite nostalgic for me honestly. I love how they look in Colosseum too!

![[LIVE] Shiny Zangoose after 2,289 REs in Platinum (Repel trick + Ruby insertion)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Hbxx4jQKYoM/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Zangoose after 2,289 REs in Platinum (Repel trick + Ruby insertion)
Really happy with this one. I had a feeling this would be a decently fast hunt as the previous hunt on this roamer as Roamer Moltres over double odds. This is something Ive been planning to do since the start of the year. I did Seviper in January and has been waiting for a free system to try for Zangoose.
I like the contrast to the normal sprite a lot. The red claws and the blue stripes are so vibrant. I found one when phasing for Inkay a long time back and had been keen on finding an 8192 one as a full odds reclaim.
These dual-slot insertion hunts are always great.

Shiny Raikou without any duplicate Entei. I thought for sure Id get at least one duplicate with my general phase luck but apparently not. Im so, so happy with this. Its one of my all time favourite Pokémon. I love the Saber Tooth tiger design. Its for sure my favourite Legendary Beast.
I was only checking the Raikou when possible so I dont know how many soft resets this took, just the amount of roamers seen.
This is my fourth shiny Roamer now on my Roamer quest. If youd like to follow my journey to get every shiny roamer check out my Google doc spreadsheet here;
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sdLTuljrKCKBkT_C9vmSthkp5KKl3G3BiYFtJELtGK4/edit#gid=0
Ill probably be doing either a Gen 2 Roamer or another Bird roamer in Platinum before going for Cresselia next year. I havent quite decided yet so well see.

![[LIVE] Shiny Cranidos after 12,063 fossils restored + Evolution](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ht-5zSfxwMg/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Shiny Cranidos after 12,063 fossils restored + Evolution
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 Im already hunting. Hopefully that doesnt go over odds.
