About 30 hours ago, I posted about getting a shiny onix, and about 70ish hours ago, about a shiny zubat. The save file was started on 5/5/2026, now at 21h playtime, and3 full odds shiny encounters. So hyped. Only sad part is that its now a dupe shiny😂. But you will not hear me complain, let that be clear.

It can almost be considered a 3rd part to the previous posts i did in the last few days, but once again, just strolling through cerulean cave after I caught mewtwo, when I see a shiny golbat, a split second I think its the golbat in my party, that got out of itd ball, but... well its not.

Wow. So 2 days ago I came across a shiny zubat, previous post on my profile, which I was very hyped about. But only 4h playtime later, while im still in the same playthrough, not hunting at all, suddenly a shiny onix. I am starting to feel like the game might tell me i must finish the playthrough with a green only team?

Title says it all. What makes it even more incredible, isthay this is my 4th pokemon game, in which ive gotten a full odds Shiny during a playthrough:

BDSP:

While searching for a specific pokemon for my national dex, I encountered a full odds Shiny Sneasel

Sword & Shield:

During a playthrough, I came acrossa shiny Shellder during a dynamax Raid, full odds from the den.

Scarlet and Violet:

During my first playthrough, roughly 2 weeks ago, during which I captured every pokemon to fill the regional dex, I suddenly noticed a shiny Rellor, who was happily pushing a gold ball of 💩

Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee:

This beauty of a zubat. I only started my playthrough yesterday, since thats when the game finally arrived. Planning to complete its pokedex (including pokemon home) I casually start my playthrough, and with less then 3 hours of playtime, And while watching tv, I suddenly notice the shiny stars in the corner of my eyes. Well, there he was.

Except for the Shellder, which I took pictures of, the other shiny encounters are all posted on my profile.

Meanwhile in FRLG

Ofwhich ive taken a brake already for a while, im 3.6k SR in trying to get a shiny Charmander starter.

Is this recognizable for people? The hunts you try for (and i know 3.6k isn't deep into it'l) refuse to shine, while you encounter full odds (yes 1/4.096 is different then 1/ 8096) in other games during playthroughs.
