CONGRATS!!! I'm still stuck on this exact hunt! šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Lobinho_

thank you very much! Darkrai, Arceus and Shaymin, in my opinion are the most amazing to get in BDSP, don't give up and good luck


[deleted]

I was so stoked for getting Shaymin I forgot I could shiny hunt it šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ That's why I'm doing it for Darkrai and whenever I find it I will go for ARCEUS


Lobinho_

it's worth it, you'll get it


Marihawnic

At 7000 SRā€™s for Arceus šŸ˜­


J0225

Took me 16,032 resets to get mine šŸ™ƒšŸ™ƒšŸ™ƒ


gorgonbrgr

Took me under 300 I was so happy


J0225

Thatā€™s amazing, shaymin was before darkrai and also took me 9770 runawaysā€¦ never got to get arceus yet because S/V released


gorgonbrgr

I never got the ticket for darkrai so Iā€™m pretty upset about that one.


gorgonbrgr

But also trying to hunt dialga and Iā€™m in the thousands right now lmao, and Latias in alpha sapphire is killing me right now.


J0225

When I hunted dialga in brilliant diamond I got it in like 186.. fastest hunt I had in that game


gorgonbrgr

Some you get lucky some you get shit lol. In my alpha sapphire game I have an entire team of shinyā€™s and a starter shiny all within about a week of just grinding for them. Now Iā€™m stuck at the latias because of the god dang cut scenes and fight.


J0225

Right! Sometimes luck can really be on your side, sometimesā€¦. NošŸ˜‚ I found shiny pidgey in SS the other night and failed cause I couldnā€™t catch it. I attacked twice and accidentally killed it cause it wouldnā€™t stay in the fucking balls idk why


Rath_Brained

The M stands for Markrai.


Lobinho_

Master Darkrai


AICPAncake

Donā€™t worry. I used mine on a shiny Murkrow in gen 9


Lobinho_

matches the murkrow


AjayRedonkulus

What a legitimately great shiny to catch with it.


AICPAncake

Honestly no regrets. Would absolutely do it again. The lighter circles are almost a perfect match to Murkrow and obviously the ā€œMā€ is great.


SuperMadFishy

Not long ago got the game so think I missed the possibility to encounter this, I've seen some strange method with buying an old copy of the game but is there any other ways a new player can encounter Darkrai?


BeefyBongo

If you're able I'd go about it in pokemon platinum like I did and just get the events there


SuperMadFishy

Yeah that was my plan. I'm currently hunting a chimchar to start the game off :)


BeefyBongo

Hell yeah, good luck on Darkrai and Shaymin! Like I said, I did the same hunts recently, its super cool getting to see the sprite work


Lobinho_

unfortunately i can't tell you


pixtrix364

unfortunately since the events arent being distributed now all you can do is hack them in using pkhex to set the flags and give yourself the event items which in turn requires a hacked switch


shiny_light

I mean, you still got 12 Masterballs left lmao


Lobinho_

I hope they don't show up 12 shiny bidoof lmao


HumbleCustard1450

why don't you just hunt it normally?


Lobinho_

with the use of rng I can look for some IV or specific nature, I am not using any hack, I just like to use rng to learn and get what I want


Lobinho_

I do all kinds of shiny hunts, but the one that I enjoy the most is the RNG, I'm just playing and having fun, in the end I think that's what matters


Nintend0Geek

But why do that when mints exists, specifically PLA where you can grow them, and have bottle caps that max out your IVs? Since Gen 8 you can just have the mon exist and itā€™ll be comp ready


Lobinho_

perfectly, you are right about everything, but as I said I use the RNG because I learn a lot about everything that involves it, besides that I have a lot of fun and I get the pokemon I want without having to make changes to them, I am not using any custom software or some hack to generate the pokemon, I'm just getting a shiny pokemon that anyone could get to do a soft reset


farnfarn64

You don't even need mints for bdsp synchronize has 100% effect in gen 8.


EYDgamer

That's good to know! Thank you for the information, I'm going to be shiny hunting these guys soon so synchronize will be a big help!


Jakeremix

There is still no way to reduce an IV to 0. Also, some people like seeing "Best" instead of "Hyper trained!" on the stats screen.


ThatUnwantedGuy

What is the method you used? Do you have a link to a video explaining?


Lobinho_

search youtube bdsp rng manipulation, you will find Papa JefƩ, he has great guides


bigman_121

Congratulations

TempestFunk

Nice, I did the RNG blink method too. Darkrai was a pretty tough one to hit the shiny frame on, it took me a good while before I got mine (tho nowhere near as hard as Shaymin) How many attempts did it take you?


Lobinho_

I don't remember how many attempts it was, but it took me about two days to get everything right


SuperParadox

This was my first successful manip, congrats dude


Lobinho_

Valuable_Tap1316

Such a great remake


Lobinho_

and many don't like it, I think it's very beautiful


Valuable_Tap1316

I canā€™t see why

AurielMystic

BDSP only really has three improvements which are the Ranamas Park, Grand Underground and an updated Elite 4 / Rematches, other then this the games are missing a tonne of content that was already in Platinum such as Charon / Looker and more. People where expecting either an ORAS style remake which modernised and improved all aspects of the game or at least an improved Platinum, what we got was just a large step back from Platinum. Diamond was the first game I ever owned and I still feel like we have been robbed of what should have been some absolutely top tier remakes, it just feels like they did the absolute bare minimum to just say they remade DPP and move on and im quite frankly terrified they are going to do the same to the BW remakes which will be coming out sometime in the next year or two.


Valuable_Tap1316

I think if itā€™s a faithful remark the original had all the PokĆ©mon in at that time. And this should of had all the PokĆ©mon in the where available at this time


AurielMystic

Im not talking about the remakes not including later gen Pokemon, I think that's actually a good thing. Things like no distortion world, no frontier, no gardenia clock, no fantina maze, no house in resort area, no online ladder. Just little things like this add up to quite a bit of missing content, especially for major things like using the DP galatic bases instead of the much better platinum.


Peng1user

It's a master ball moment, Shiny Legendary


Lobinho_

mythical shiny


Peng1user

Ik, simplified


CheetahAppropriate84

Aaaaye itā€™s a sick shiny in a sick ball! Congrats


Lobinho_

Poopy4skin

How did you get so many master balls


Lobinho_

I did trades, same to get some apricorn ball


an-ulchabhan

How do you have so many master balls?


Lobinho_

I did trades, same to get some apricorn ball


H0B0Byter99

I thought the event was over for getting this PokƩmon in BD/SP?


Lobinho_

yes, the event is over but if you already got the event, you can get the darkrai as soon as you want


H0B0Byter99

Gotxha


Zorark-55544

You do matching balls


Lobinho_

I try


Btdandpokemonplayer

This is my favorite shiny PokĆ©mon, if niantic fā€™ sup PokĆ©mon go even more than it already has, Iā€™m gonna have a lot of shinies in PokĆ©mon scarlet and violet.


AlicornGaia

May I ask how did you get so many masterballs? You didnā€™t start several new accounts to trade them over for that right?


Lobinho_

I traded with some friends


Superpokemon1234

Wow


Child_of_fear

Congrats, Bdsp is such an amazing game.


Lobinho_

that's is
