what's going on everyone Austin John plays here and today I'm going to be discussing
fixed Encounters in Pokemon scarlet and violet and how you can shiny hunt them
[Music]
the very first thing that I want to say is there's a big difference between a static encounter and a
fixed encounter a static encounter is like the X Titans and your box legendary Pokemon in Pokemon
they do have to walk up to hit a and interact with those are static encounters pretty much
everything about them is predetermined and they are shiny locked as opposed to fixed encounters
fixed encounters basically means that there is a spawner that can hold one Pokemon that is always
chosen from this one Pokemon at this level and it can be shiny the wild Terror Pokemon that you see
are considered fixed encounters they can be shiny you can shiny hunt them but for reasons I'm going
to be talking about later in this video you probably don't want to out of all the fixed
Encounters in the entire game there is only one Pokemon that is exclusive to fixed encounters
it's not Magneton it's spiritum you'll know that spiritomb is a fixed encounter because it
does not show up on the Pokedex as you can see right here spiritomb habitat unknown but you
know what I know where it is it's oh where'd he go he's back there that's that's where he is Spirit
2 is actually found in several places and every Pokemon that is a fixed encounter does not show
up on the Pokedex under its locations the same way that the wild very strong looking Pokemon in
the wild area in sword and shield didn't show up the same way that the wild Terrors don't show up
here and sometimes they're out of their regular biome and for simplification it just makes it so
it doesn't show up because it's not regularly spawning there using serebii's interactive map
four fixed encounters these are all of the fixed Encounters in the entire game and there are a lot
of them if you look here at glasado Mountain you are going to be able to see several of them you
have to click that and then scroll down so there's a fixed Cub chew there's a fixed bear tick there's
uh here's the sparitum great there's Spirit team other places I'm just going to this one because
it's next to the ruins and I always know exactly where it is here's a fun fact when you started
off off the game most of the Pokemon on the Poco path are fixed encounters meaning that it's always
going to be that one specific Pokemon in that one specific place as opposed to a lot of the regular
spawners that you encounter out in the Overworld now these Pokemon do respawn you can encounter
them multiple times but they respond in a very different way here is the first Spirit tomb that
I encountered here once this Pokemon is drawn into the world it's always gonna be this one Pokemon if
if you wanted to shiny hunt this Spirit tomb you could do that it's really pretty simple all you
need to do is knock out the current Sparrow tomb here or catch it doesn't matter all you need to
do is make sure that you either catch it or knock it out one of the two from here you're going to
right where the spirit tube normally spawns put down a picnic what we're doing now is making sure
that if the game was trying to generate Spirit tune being here now it's not going to be her
now the game has no memory of what's supposed to be here and it's going to actively try to draw it
in I'm then going to save the game turn the game off system settings and I'm going to move one day
forward when you load back into the world all the 15 Pokemon around you are still going to be
the same if you were to not get any of them out Spirit whom wouldn't respawn but if you go away
from that location spiritomb is going to respawn and this is a different Spirit tomb than the one
that you just knocked out now to make your life a little bit easier and faster we're going to
save further away from Spirit tomb where he can possibly spawn but not yet where he does spawn
in so I know that he's gonna spawn in pretty much right here in this circle so all I'm gonna do is
slowly walk away from here and I'm gonna put down saves every few feet until right before
he does spawn in essentially what's happening is there's a radius around the player in which
Pokemon cannot spawn as you probably know from shiny hunting isolated encounters trying to shiny
hunt by walking out of towns there we go there's spiritome we see that it's not shiny now that we
have that save that's only a few steps away from where he spawns in close the game and reopen the
game loading back into the world if you're facing away you may want to face toward and then put down
another save that way your camera is going to load in facing where the Pokemon is going to be and
then just take those few steps look of it shiny reload the game that's it that's all you have
to do you load back into the world a few steps away different Spirit whom I can encounter this
and show it to you I've done it many times before I know for a fact that this is a different Spirit
tomb every time that I encounter it I mean for example that one's a male the first one I caught
was a female so we know for a fact that they're different now you ready for the bombshell you
ready for the information that is new about this that no one has properly covered before
these Pokemon as I discussed are not shiny locked the base rate of shiny Pokemon in the wild in
this game is one out of 4096 the ory tomb shiny rate is one out of 4096. every fixed encounter
and every fixed Terrace spawn is one out of 4096. if you have the shiny charm it is one
out of 4096 if you have sparkling power three it is one out of 4096 nothing that you can do
in this game will affect that Pokemon's shiny weight it is always going to be one out of 4096.
nothing in the game will affect this Pokemon's chance to be shiny you just need to reload the
game walk those few inches and see if it's going to be shiny for one-to-one odds 4096 times it
takes about 50 seconds for you to reload the game and walk those few inches that puts you at
204 800 seconds divided into minutes is going to be 3413 minutes there are 60 minutes in an hour
56.88 hours that you have to do to get one-to-one odds for that Spirit whom to be shiny that means
that without you modifying your game and without you putting in any cheat codes or anything else
like that it will take you 56 hours for one-to-one odds for that Pokemon to be shining if you hunted
this for 56 hours and for it to be shiny that's going to be a huge achievement for you now here's
the thing I don't recommend you do that as I said before Spirit whom is the only Pokemon that you
can only get via a fixed encounter every other fixed encounter you can get via some other way
in the game it's Evolution it's pre-evolution in the wild in raid Den's spiritomb is the only one
that is locked to this specific method do you know what takes less time than 56 hours it takes less
time for you to go work at a job get sixty dollars go buy a copy of Pokemon Legends Arceus be the
entire game collect all 108 wisps encounter Spirit Tomb at its fixed location which then allows you
to hunt it during massive mass outbreaks and then shiny hunt spiritomb that way all of that
takes less time than 56 hours the only reason you should do this Hunt is if you have to have every
shiny Pokemon in this game from this game even if that is the case don't do this hunt now because
in the DLC he might be more readily available he might be in raids he might be in the wild he
might be somewhere else do not do this hunt just some additional information about this Spirit
tomb in addition to it being one-to-one odds I don't know where he went this spiritomb cannot
have a mark it will not be affected by Teensy or humongo power Cubchoo is hanging out if you come
across that one in 56 hour third chance that one of these Terror Pokemon is shiny or one of these
fixed encounters is shiny treasure it cherish it uh hold down the screenshot button which
will record that 30 second video and tweet me that video because you just came across some stuff that
that's for sure well anyways guys I hope you found this information helpful if you did do me
