How to catch Pokémon Shinys in Pokémon Violet and Scarlet?
Pokémon shinys are Pokemon They are extremely rare. They stand out because of their different color from the original and the little stars that appear when you start a battle with them! To catch them, you need to prepare as well as possible and then apply the best techniques. This will make it easier and more reliable to catch them.
With massive appearances on Pokémon purple/scarlet
On your card, you must zoom out to see certain Pokémon on the map or a "?". Large Pokémon displayed in this way have a massive appearance, which means that when you arrive there, you will see that there are more Pokémon (displayed on the map) in that location. The more Pokémon you see displayed at the same time, the easier it will be to find shiny Pokémon, also known as Chromatic Pokémon!
It is important to note that mass appearances only last one day and change the next day, so you can change the time on your Switch to change the mass appearance!
Attention :
Long before catching a Shiny Pokémon, get as close as possible. without triggering a fight so you can go back and catch it if you miss it! And be careful with automatic saves, which can break things.
With the hunting technique, the picnic:
The aim is to launch the picnic. As soon as you launch, you spam the button to quit the picnic. This makes the Pokémon disappear and show new PokémonsThis is currently the fastest method in the game!
It should also be noted that mass appearance and picnicking can occur at the same time.
Other techniques to make shinys appear in Pokémon purple and scarlet
The base rate = 1 in 4,096. Indeed, there is little chance of seeing shiny Pokémon appear. Fortunately, we have compiled some techniques for you to increase the chances of them appearing.
- The Chroma Charm increases your chances by 2 (so 1/1 365.67)
- The sandwich increases the chances by 3 so with the chroma charm (so 1/683.08).
- You'll also need to knock out Pokémon of a similar size to get a bonus for defeating between 30 and 59 Pokémon. You get 1 chance, and if you defeat more than 60 Pokémon? you get 2 chances.
You must send your Pokémon without triggering the battle. This will save you time, and if it happens to be a Shiny Pokémon, it won't kill it.
- This means that with the sandwich + chroma charm + 60 KO Pokémons you get 1 in 512 chance.
However, be aware that the massive appearance will decrease and you will see fewer Pokémons. In this case, the picnic method is preferable.
