what's going on everyone Austin John plays here and today I'm going to be going over the most
efficient way for you to hunt shiny Pokemon in mass outbreaks in Pokemon scarlet and violet
[Music]
there are many things that you can do in order to get yourself very good shiny odds during these
mass outbreaks and it works much differently than mass outbreaks did in pla instead it runs on sort
of a new dynamic system that in my opinion is much better if you're going to be doing mass outbreaks
before the post game the best odds that you could possibly have are one out of 1 365.67 if you made
your way to the end game and you have access to Five Star raids and you can do 5 Star raids you
can have as good of odds out of one out of 683.08 but if you've completed the Pokedex receive the
shiny charm and you started doing 5 Star raids the best odds that you can have for this are
one out of 512.44 I'm going to be going over the exact method that you would be doing regardless
of your current progression in Pokemon scarlet and violet now there are going to be some nuances is
here that I'm going to be talking about and when I'm mentioning them they may seem a little weird
but these are going to be the exact best times that you can do very specific things to not waste
time doing mass outbreaks the very first thing is let's get you a mass outbreak and if there's one
already on your map you're at a very very smidge em slight disadvantage here but if you're like you
know what I want to do some Mass outbreak Shawnee hunting today then you're actually in a little bit
of an advantage I'm gonna go ahead and I'm Gonna Save my game I'm now going to close my game I'm
going to go to system settings I'm going to go to dating time and whatever the current time is
I'm actually going to be setting it to 11 59 PM doesn't matter the day the reason I'm doing this
is because I'm going to be starting this Mass outbreak at the first minute of the day so if
you wanted to do part of this Mass outbreak now and then you have to go to work or school and
then you want to come home and do it a little little bit more you can do that setting it to
11 59 let's boot the software back up upon loading the game back up all the Pokemon that were around
us are going to respawn and above me you're gonna be seeing messages that your mass outbreaks aren't
going to be changing there they are now that we're in the minute of the new day we're gonna
go ahead and we're gonna put down a save if one of these Pokemon appeal to you fantastic let's
begin but if they don't appeal to you then all you have to do is hit the menu button go to home
go to date and time change the day exactly one day forward you may also want to reset it back
to being exactly midnight or midnight 01 and when you come back to the game you just leave the menu
and then your outbreaks are going to refresh once again I myself found this little boy over
here what's his name the Vroom something like that great let's head on over there I want to
take a moment and actually look at the environment in which that Pokemon is going to be spawning it
seems like it's right here I don't see any on the map quite yet oh is it on top of this little Hill
oh great it's on top of this little Hill right here and you may be in a situation that you're not
going to have a lot of room before even starting this outbreak I'd recommend opening a picnic and
see if you can actually place down a picnic if you can and the Pokemon are going to be within
that area that they spawn then you're gonna be okay so when I unload the picnic are the Pokemon
going to be there I don't see them okay perhaps I was a little close if I go to this side of this
little Boulder and put down the picnic not enough room over here not enough room it looks like this
is the least amount of width that I can do for a picnic which is gonna be a little bit rough
and because of that while I do want varum this may not be the outbreak for me so I'm just gonna
hit the menu button and I'm gonna go to home and I'm going to system settings and we're gonna move
the day one day forward I may get another of a room I may not get another room I'm also going
to reset it back to 1201 am going back to the game and leaving the menu outbreaks are going
to be changing I still don't see any of it that I want so I'm just going to hit the menu button date
and time change it one day forward and I'm going to continue this process until I find a Pokemon
that I want to do I actually found a floor just Mass outbreak and I just checked in my Pokemon
home I do not have a floor just so let's go see if this is going to be a big enough area for us
to effectively do a mass outbreak and it seems like they're spawning over there and over there
in addition this Pokemon doesn't seem to move a lot unlike the varoons do so let's go ahead
set up a picnic and I want to just make sure that there's going to be some place that I can
set up a picnic and when the picnic is done the Pokemon are going to respawn well it looks like
we do have a place that they are going to be spawning efficiently fantastic now that I have
selected the Pokemon that I want to hunt and the specific location of the outbreak that's
ideal for this method now I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to put down hard save and I would
also recommend turning Auto saves off at this time from here I'm gonna be using the let's go
feature and I'm going to be counting 30 Pokemon that I'm going to be knocking out we're going
for a total of 60 but for some reason counting to 32 times in my head is a lot easier than counting
to 60 once also this Pokemon is only weak to poison so so the Pokemon that I'm using for
let's go I need to make sure that it's going to be poison type and I'm pretty sure this is my 30th
now I'm going to be knocking out 30 more of them you may see a little pop-up like this
that is going to say there's not a lot of Pokemon left don't worry about that with what we're doing
there's gonna be plenty of Pokemon for us if the Pokemon knocks out a different species that's fine
just don't get it confused and don't add those Pokemon to the total you'll have to knock out
60 Pokemon in total of the exact species that we are going to be doing in this Mass outbreak and
this is gonna be my 60th now there's always some room for human error here and there is a chance
that you counted wrong there's a chance that I counted wrong so I'm just gonna go ahead and knock
out like three more and now that I've successfully knocked out 60 Pokemon that number has now gone to
one out of 1 365.67 if you don't have the shiny charm or access to Five Star raids and urban
mystica then the next little bit here is not gonna really apply to you but I do recommend watching
it that way once you are ready for this you are more knowledgeable of what's going on I'm gonna
go to options I'm gonna double check that auto save is off and I'm gonna put down a hard save
the reason I'm doing that is this is now our basis this Mass outbreak has had 60 Pokemon defeated and
that's all it needs this Mass outbreak is going to continue being here until 11 59 PM in game time or
in switch time if I wanted to get distracted and go to the other side of the world and then come
back here I can do that and this will still be at after 60 Pokemon are defeated do a whole bunch of
stuff defeat some Titans beat the game see the credits go shiny hunting in different methods
come back here still within that same 24 hour in switch period and this will still be the same mass
outbreak with the same stats the only things that will get rid of this Mass outbreak are your clock
hits midnight in switch time or you defeat to the remaining floor just here or whatever Pokemon you
have so after I put down this hard save I'm gonna go ahead and we're gonna set up a picnic these
recipes that I've previously discussed are are going to give you encounter power 3 and
they're going to give you sparkling power 3. feel free to screenshot this now if you'd like all of
them require saltier of a mystica many of them require two and infrequently we're going to be
seeing sweet spicy and sour so because we don't need encounter power 3 because we have this Mass
outbreak I would highly recommend that you first choose to use your bitter Urban mystica followed
by your spicy and sour as those are only used in one each followed by sweet and because this
Pokemon is fairy type I need to make it with one tomato now also the neat thing here is if
you wanted to you could leave this area go set up Co-op play with someone go make a sandwich with
them one of you provide one Urban mystica each and boom you're gonna both have a buff for the same
type of Pokemon but it's only going to cost you half as many Urban mystica so if you have someone
that you can do the co-op mode with you can save on ingredients that way one tomato great I have
two bitters I'm gonna use both of those it does not matter the flag pick that you use for these
recipes three tomatoes have been added on you don't even need the top of the bread it doesn't
matter where the pick goes that's a beautiful sandwich that's this exact sandwich that I need
right now this year truly magnificent Austin John original sandwich is going to give me sparkling
power fairy level three also title and item drop but that's not really too important to me remember
that we did put down a hard save before this and we have Auto saves off if you just get bored and
decide to not do this anymore you just reload your save and you're not using this Urban mystica I'm
now going to go ahead and hide my face and I'm just gonna look at the Pokemon here and I met a
little bit of a disadvantage because floor just seems to spawn in a stack like this it's very
purple at the bottom so even if it is stacked up like this I should be able to see it now I'm just
gonna pick a place that I can kind of see both of these spawn places and I'm gonna set up a picnic
by doing this this picnic all of the Pokemon are going to despawn and now I'm going to slowly move
my character until I find the perfect place that I get the ones on the left and that pool of them
that was just there on the right as there might be some behind me yep there is and I don't want
to have to pan my camera around this is it this is the whole strategy unfortunately I
don't think I'm getting at a position that I'm going to not have those spawn and I am going to
have those spawn so every time I do that picnic I'm gonna have to pan the camera around now if
you're not a fan of doing the picnic method you're welcome to just move away from that mass outbreak
and move back toward the mass outbreak this also may be more advantageous if the shiny is
very easy to see and there's a lot of stuff going on or if you didn't follow that earlier
step and now you're at a place that you can't really set up a picnic on the Pokemon or not
respawning efficiently you may be forced to just kind of move around and force them to despawn and
respawn if you did make the sandwich you could hit deright to always see how much time you have
left on your current Buffs and as you're doing this you're gonna move around a little bit and
you kind of want to find like a sweet spot you'll know this sweet spot because you're getting more
and more florges or whatever Pokemon spawning soon as you're done with the picnic so if I
look to where they were and I don't see them I see some over there I definitely need to move back a
little bit more to get them to spawn right in my line of view and I think I found that sweet spot
I could kind of see them all come in one by one that's exactly what I want if you're in an area
that's not a field but more of a cave system or a valley which has a decreased area in which they
can spawn you're gonna find this to be a little bit more effective because they're all going to
spawn in one place instead of having a look around if you have the shiny charm and you are doing this
without a sandwich then you're looking at one out of 819 but if you're doing it with the shiny charm
and with the sandwiches that I told you about you're going to be looking at one out of 512.44
considering that you're going to be despawning about 10 Pokemon at a time and it takes about
30 seconds for us to do this within that half hour you are going to be seeing about 600 Pokemon which
is the one to one odds for you to find a shiny that's the crazy thing about odds you could be
at one to one odds you could be at Double odds you could be at triple odds and you may just
not be lucky enough to see it if your half hour runs out of your sandwich feel free to just turn
the game off and turn it back on you still have your ingredients these Pokemon are still at the
number 60 defeated and there's no loss of progress whatsoever you just get to remake that sandwich
for free and you're good to go I would just like to add a little bit of a blurb here in regard to
accessibility I've been speaking with people who have afflictions of various types of color
blindness and for people who are specifically weak of a certain color there are some tricks that you
can do for one of these hunts in order to see the Pokemon a little bit better granted there are some
Pokemon that you cannot see the difference even if you have regular perfect vision if you're playing
your Nintendo switch in docked mode some advice that I've learned is you can actually change your
TV settings to be able to see specific tints and colors a little bit more effectively you may find
that to be useful if you're in a situation that you're not able to distinguish different colors
of Pokemon at all regardless of your current screen settings then you may wish to just go
over and defeat all of these Pokemon in let's go mode like we did for the first 60. and if you're
not successful in finding one then you just reload your save and you're good to go again if you are
going to be doing that method of using the Auto Battle feature to continuously knock out Pokemon
then you may want to make that sandwich and then after the sandwich is made put down a hard save
while it may be a much faster loss of ingredients you are still going to be having that outbreak
every time you reload the game if you have access to a capture card to be able to play games on the
PC or various platforms you may want to consider throwing on a Luma key or a color key to get rid
of specific colors that you know that the shiny Pokemon is not in this case I've decided to remove
a vast majority of the color green therefore if I were to see a floor just that has the bottom
half fully in picture then there is a chance that that's going to be the shiny Pokemon I have been
doing this this for 27 minutes and despite these Pokemon spawning inside of themselves
I have finally found it as you can see right here there is a floor just that is shiny spawned in the
exact same location as a regular floor just right now I'm gonna put down a hard save because I now
have the shiny Pokemon on screen if I were to enter a battle and something goes awry it uses
self-destruct explosion a recoil move something I'm not prepared for I don't have the right ball
that I want for it problems can happen now if I were to set up a picnic it would despawn and be
gone forever if I were to leave this immediate vicinity it would despawn and be gone forever
if I leave and come back these same Pokemon will not be here I have to be in front of this Pokemon
for it to remain here if I walk inside of it with my camera closed that's how I get the best
best reaction yes thank you there we go that's the shot I wanted thank you now if I did not encounter
this floor just within the half hour which is ending in 20 seconds I would have just Reloaded
The Game and from reloading the game I would have been able to just make the sandwich again
do this all again and now that I've gotten all the b-roll that I need of the wild Shiny Pokemon
now it's time to for to actually catch it I'm just happy that looking at the size of flabebe
I'm not gonna have to shiny hunt this and I got to look at the much larger one so that's a win right
oh first ball I got a crit nice there we go floor just the red flower fairy Pokemon right there
that's gonna be the fastest and most efficient way for you to use mass outbreaks for you to
hunt down a Shiny Pokemon I hope this information was helpful and concise if there's any additional
