one in every 8 192 Pokemon are supposed to be shiny which means that it's possible most people have never even realized how much of a glow up Charizard can have as well as Garchomp who gets a little sunburnt I decided that I wanted a nice relaxing stream and beating Pokemon Soul Silver with only Shiny Pokemon which is essentially asking hey Alfred can you watch paint dry so to not blow all of my brains out we increase the probabilities to one in 2048 since that's just half of the modern shiny odds so now imagine how shockingly lucky would be if I found a Shiny Pokemon on my first try the Garita Totodile Cyndaquil okay so you would see a shiny if it was right there so now you see what we're doing today personally I've never healed of shiny hunting before so you could first Venture in watching grass grow since I knew this was going to take a while we slapped a timer on screen so even you at home could see how much time I wasted but I feel like this is the one I just got that something within me telling me that this is the one but what if it was it's not but what if it was so I am going to be trying very very hard to make this stream sound interesting to you because it was really just a lot of flashing colors that probably required an epilepsy warning combined with the ramblings of a man who has nothing better to do what about that Pokemon thumbnail Jacob yeah I put furry porn in in a Pokemon thumbnail what do you what do you want me to elaborate on that you clicked on it like what are you projecting here but then what made me stop tweeting megalovania was when Toby Fox followed me on twitter.com because then it was like every time I tweet I had to think about what would Toby Fox think I've actually had a couple conversations with Toby Fox and I think my most recent one is my favorite because you know like I use dating start in all of my sponsored videos and whatnot and now a lot of the sponsors are like getting wise that I don't own the rights of the song so I know that you don't normally do this but can I buy a license for dating start so I can use it and then he just just said like sorry we don't normally do stuff like that but I will say the compositions are online and everything I used to make the songs are just public domain you can find them anywhere so if you were to go recreate the song one to one and make it sound the exact same then you can just tell nordvpn that you made it yourself today's video is sponsored by nordvpn look you might not need a VPN today but eventually you will and when you do I hope you check out nordvpn.com Alpha red once I was locked outside of my YouTube channel on vacation and needed to upload so I used nordvpn to make YouTube think I was back home one time I wanted to watch Avatar before it was added to American Netflix so I use nordvpn to make that happen and if I'm ever out in public try and connect to random Wi-Fi servers I always use nordvpn on my phone just so I can protect my privacy anywhere my point is that when this day comes for you you're gonna wish you were protected like me and if you want in on this today my link of nordvpn.com Alfred will get you a discounted rate on a two-year deal so you'll always be covered whenever you'll need it when you least expect it so thanks again to nordvpn for sponsoring this video and thanks to you for supporting them support me they've been a long-term sponsor of the channel and I appreciate they'd appreciate it and they help create the content you like watching so be sure to check out nordvp en.com Alpha red after an hour we switched to Pokemon Heart Gold in hopes of having better luck I know it didn't really change anything but I was hoping for the same energy shift as reading a fortune cookie that's vaguely applicable however this run became a whole lot more bearable when my good friend Jaden stopped by because well she also didn't have anything better to do casual shiny hunting is nice as Captain Kidd uh that's your own opinion this [ __ ] sucks viewers are up it's probably the most active I've been in like talking to chat so I guess that is the appeal I see it I just don't want to do it again he says 90 minutes into a run that to be honest hasn't even started yet you know as a kid when you had to make up your own fun to not go absolutely insane this felt like one of those moments because not even two hours have passed and Jaden and I decided to attempt a rock paper scissors not lock Jade hold up hold up come here okay you can't use paper anymore no you just can't use paper anymore okay [Music] okay so okay paper's gone for both of us all right okay it does you can sell those scissors if I go scissors I lose no matter even if you have scissors so after a controversial detour in three whole hours fate finally smiled upon me uh Chikorita I guess and since the first two gems are essentially chicory to shame Kinks I actually contemplated re-rolling for another shiny but wasn't really willing to risk another three hours for it but hey who knows oh and something I do in all these challenge runs is just name Pokemon after my most recent sub so hey who knows maybe even you could be a shiny chicorito one day like our good friend Silly Willy but after clashing with our Rivals non-shiny Cyndaquil we had to report everything we saw to Professor realm and identify that dirty Thief no what's the antithesis of shinies who hates shinies mud mud he's mud mud you're right that's it's the opposite of shiny his name's mud and just like that our journey has officially begun three hours later so given that I didn't want to throw Chikorita to the Wolves against Faulkner I decided that without over leveling or using any battle items I'd realistically need another Pokemon to withstand the flight of demons but first I had to take a quick bathroom break and handed the control over to Jade and see what kind of Magic the unluckiest person I've ever met could accomplish people are saying hi Jaden animations oh I get it I gotta click my button okay okay I got it I got it hello everyone what do you want to talk about I have no idea how anyone streams because like my mind is like [Music] I'm not touching anything well I did my job so yeah we got him I don't I don't want to talk too loudly because I I want it to be what what are you what the [ __ ] really yeah really needless to say I was a bit surprised as nice as it was to be reunited with Babu two Pokemon who are weak to the Flying gym that really solved our problem so with the team of exclusively grass Pokemon I shiny hunted a little bit more before ultimately getting bored and just decided to stiff arm the first gym until something inevitably worked out oh he saw the kill yeah that's true but if you missed that Gus oh poison damage that poison [Music] wait wait okay me being in Kill range was the correct decision in any other timeline they Roost if they didn't see the kill oh my God I'm a genius actually actually I'm a genius after making it through Union Cave and murdering hiker Anthony in broad daylight we made our way to Azalea town I did my typical ritual of shiny hunting for about 10 minutes all before giving up and decided to try to progress the plot anyways well when it came down to either the bug type gym or a trainer named mud it felt difficult dare I say just not very fun so I swallowed my pride and attempted to hunt one more shiny who could helpfully solve this impossible riddle And So It Begins oh what oh my god look they're matching they're matching another grass Pokemon or our journey so maybe one in two thousand is a bit of a problem yeah we're gonna take this free Zubat sure but I'm Gonna Bump the shiny odds back to a modern one in four thousand ninety six why because I hate myself and since I know people will ask no the Togepi wasn't shiny but with ninpock the Zubat hopefully she could be exactly what I needed to conquer these two trainers who are immune to our green little grass types oh and I know that I told you the shiny odds were modified but I might have forgotten to tell my twitch chat so on the next stream I unfortunately had to break the news to them I I am sorry to admit wait I need Saturn music uh guys I'm I'm sorry [Music] um but something happened yesterday and I know what we were all thinking wow he sure does seem to be catching shinies very quickly well there's a reason for that it's because I cheated I sacrificed the Dignity of this run so it would go a little bit faster but who cares they made better content anyways the second day started out with navigating through the forest before reaching Goldenrod right before struggling on Whitney like all people do no no we hit these we hit these every single time not affected by the allegation [ __ ] thank God this wasn't a Nuzlocke because after six whole attempts our skeleton crew somehow pulled through but the main reason I chose jodo for this run is that they just have so many stationary Pokemon to shiny hunt and even though I thought Sudowoodo would be the next best choice I regrettably learn about a potential shiny Dratini in the Goldenrod game Corner alongside the mystical Madness of a little game called Voltorb flip oh oh okay it's kind of like a Sudoku rule where it um I see oh oh okay so I see the strategy this I promise you this guy does not know what the [ __ ] he's doing okay so this has six points but only one volt port and it's right there okay luckily someone on the internet who's wasted even more time than me put together a Voltorb flip solver yet given the amount of luck required to win this game the solver was far from perfect and ultimately required you to abuse save states oh that's not again oh my [ __ ] god so uh fun fact the hotkey to do that does something else entirely if you're tabbed into Google Chrome not again and if you listen carefully no this is not the first time that's happened look I know but what do you mean Jacob this is my friend just because she has her ass out in a 2B cosplay doesn't mean she's less of my friends luckily she found it funny and it's not like she's gonna be surprised that the internet thinks she has a fat ass that bit took up more time than I expected so I just decided to abuse safe dates even harder and Rob the Goldenrod game corner of everything they had I think that could be a two that was that was close that was dangerous very risky stuff there um uh so given the diagonal rule of Oak it's probably going to be a two here uh-huh of course and then if we snake that to the three and then the two that's good that's good but then we hit the fork in the row which means that there's gonna be a two here and a two here and then if we go down the river through the woods there should be a two here and coming back to the diagonal rule it should be here but of course it's the bridge rule of Terabithia um but if we skip over the forest we get a two and I think that's it oh okay so after saving up enough money for five whole astrotinis the farm has officially begun this whole section was filled with just me talking about life advice for smaller creators and even a deep dive through my earliest documented videos that's right my nuts so at the eight hour mark I felt like I was finally starting to go insane I mean statistically speaking we could be seeing this shiny Dratini any second now statistically speaking of course who knows that's actually going to happen probably not my odd should be better than ever before by collecting Dratini and bunches and if you want to watch the full insanity hey here you go sociopaths and as I'm writing the script and going back through the footage I am witnessing things I genuinely don't remember I was completely sober don't get me wrong but somehow I wasn't I'll do what it takes look I was desperate for the pink worm and was willing to temporarily believe in every form of superstition imaginable alongside my good friend Miku do you think we can find a pink Dratini okay I said do you think we can find a pink Dratini I can't find good help anywhere these days eventually this person on screen who is not me in the slightest decided it would be a good idea to manipulate the colors of the stream it's shiny guys so how about we just fast forward uh where'd my save go and we're back so how about we just fast forward through the next not very good not very good this runs dead run sucks yeah so mentally I could have been doing better so how about we fast forward to the pink worm that pink worm is real [Music] it really wasn't that bad at all now that I think about it since all it took was just the longest four hours of my life and then I got to take out my anger on Sudowoodo which somehow felt appropriate so we took our new Dratini onward to equity but not until we gave him the proper nickname of shmoopy The elusive pink worm with the party of four Pokemon you'd probably think that I could just move on and play the game well I did for a little bit I murdered our rival witnessed a few dogs and acquired a fourth gym badge which unfortunately triggers an event where Bill can give us a free Eevee and I think you see where this is going we don't need this on our team but shiny Umbreon is just really cool these streams are filled with moments where I have to fill space with anything and everything that comes to my head because everything you're looking at isn't very interesting so while talking about my mommy issues and media that can make me cry that's not even the most [ __ ] up episode in Bojack but just for me specifically that [ __ ] me up that was such an ins and that somehow happened in 10 minutes so maybe these two balance each other out for my own mental health that's what I'm gonna go with so with mix Sage blue joining our team all we had to do was max out our friendship through copious amounts of drugs and evolve him into a blue and beloved Umbreon whoa wait wait whoa so I guess we'll just take the crow back for now is it just me or does he look kind of naked and Babu too since we have five unique and shiny Pokemon in our party we only needed one additional hero to round out a full and complete team so I embarked on an impossible quest to shiny hunt one of johto's most impossible captures Red Gyarados chat chat what if magic car oh okay okay Magikarp oh that was so close that could have been a shiny guys guys guys wait I have a good feeling about this one oh guys oh my God [Music] chat shiny Gyarados oh my God and that was my impersonation of literally anybody else on this godforsaken website trying to shiny hunt wow all right first try too okay it's time to send out the payout 87 percent of you thought we were gonna find a shiny Gyarados some of you are right but not all not all of you were right after this Lantern is gross orange Dragonite warned us about the bad guys being bad so we just let them then I evolved Eevee into this beautiful Umbreon and trekked over towards Olivine City so now that we have a full team this shiny only run kind of turns into a perfectly normal playthrough at this point because like we fight Chuck get the medicine fight Jasmine fight Team Rocket fight fries and then fight Team Rocket but again I don't know what you're expecting for the rest of the video but we really do just play Pokemon here yeah we fight Claire in her Blue Worms but then it's like oh somehow we have all eight badges surely this could be the end but given that face on the box what if it was red realize though there is a chance it is just as likely this time as any other time for us to just get shiny Lugia right off the bat that makes sense all right everyone grab a snack grab a drink and strap in because we got we got a whole day ahead of us if you thought Dratini was bad if you thought Chikorita was bad you have not seen anything until I show you the out of context highlights of shiny hunting Lugia I don't think we could ever catch Lugia with a regular Pokeball I mean we can try all right well we got our answer oh my God look at Lugia go holy [ __ ] I'm gonna have a seizure from all these recess look there what else do you want me to do you want me to go at normal speed I don't think so oh guys big reveal yo oh my God thank you for the 10 gifted Subs oh you know what that means anyone feel like trauma dumping and getting banned for it normally I'm like pretty a cab and everything but I was like you know what when it comes down to Waffle House anime stores are probably all fronts for cocaine if you think about it he called me the bleach Bandit by the way which was just really mean I want to keep doing this I want to finish jodo but I don't want to do Lugia I'm [ __ ] this we're done Lugia dies tonight yeah this thing is getting [ __ ] shot between the eyes [Music] foreign [Music] let this be a lesson a negative and pessimistic attitude really goes a long way do I kill it of course now that we have seven Shiny Pokemon it was time to dump our starter as we never really wanted them anyways I kind of forgot going into it but apparently jodo's Victory Road is essentially a glorified walk no trainers no encounters just a lovely stroll before the final rival fight where something that I thought was genuinely impossible happened what [Music] but that's the opposite of mud um I'd like to point out that after that happened much said seems it wasn't just luck that's gotten you this far yes we slightly modified the shiny odds but it should not have affected the trainers right I'll be honest and say that I have no idea what happened here but this dude me was flabbergasted if you you've played Pokemon before you know that the Elite 4 is the finale where runs like this normally end but if you've played Johto before you know that conquering Lance and his disgusting peasant dragons is merely just the beginning you have to watch the credits fight eight new gym leaders all across the Kanto region maybe even sneak into shiny Mewtwo while you're at it and perhaps add an extra mod along the way because you know that this run truly ends only after you make it atop Mount Silver and face off against the strongest trainer in Pokemon history red all right the Pikachu this is wait what Pokemon is this again I have to think for a second volt tackle it might hurt a little bit oh oh wait we we get hit here oh [ __ ] okay we should have just done that yeah light Ball's terrifying what the [ __ ] yeah and we have Thunderbolt and rock climb we do have rock climb okay yeah that's just an okay holy [ __ ] uh I need to hit one of those I should have gone for the toxic all right that's fine this shouldn't kill Snorlax but it might oh it does it's plus two Gyarados what am I talking about I think we kill everything else in Gyarados oh low damage roll oh Gyarados would have destroyed everything else come on Mewtwo hi special attack High special attack okay that's good uh we set to be faster and hit psychic uh stab super high special attack this could Oco this could absolutely OKO oh okay okay Venusaur down and now it's just surf Lugia no no Babu is losing HP on purpose because now it's all going to be recoil oh that's so smart good job Babu look at all that damaged Babu felt no we're good we're golden actually Master tactician of Babu this was all planned all planned because now watch low enough HP for Asian power just kills all thanks to Babu and that's red and just like that 20 hours with copious amounts of speed ups and I conquered a children's game in the slowest way imaginable so would I do it again probably not [Music]
