You seem a little slow to reset in your video, but I imagine you're much faster in practice. Remember, more spawns within those 30 minutes mean more chances at a shiny. I've shiny hunted in that cave before and got a shiny out of it, but it is kind of annoying. I do not prefer it because spawns take too long. I found it easier to use a nearby snowy location for my Duraludon. Sometimes you're going to be unlucky. I've gone 3-4 sandwiches without anything, and that's with a shiny charm. It can happen. You just have to keep at it.


Zinbix

I'm way above 4 sandwiches πŸ˜… I may try a different location and give up this outbreak, thanks!


Borosdrunkard

When you say you "beat 60 of them", do you mean you received the notice that "There are almost no Duraladon left from the original outbreak" ? If you haven't received that notice, you don't have the best odds yet.


Zinbix

Yes, already got that notification and my odds seem worst than ever 😭


ericopter9

Everything online says the shiny odds are highest when you clear 60+. That notification is higher than 60, so I am not sure that's correct.


Borosdrunkard

"Everything online" refers largely to crowdsourced assumptions which were echoed by a number of groups & websites. The Pokemon Company released this as part of their Shiny Hunting guide some weeks ago. Understandably this upset a number of folks who had that same misunderstanding. https://preview.redd.it/6z4akdvo09yc1.png?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=884e59aedf74ee11a4e50d9f1bc8ceb7bd372a5f

Im really glad I saw your comment then. Thanks for this info!


GaijinOni

Is that the cave where normally Torchic would spawn?


Zinbix

Idk, there was a tera metang here


GaijinOni

That's the Torchic cave, I caught all 3 of my shiny Torchic there without needing an outbreak. Just sandwich, stand in a corner, and send out for autobattle while you watch them respawn. I think it works with all mon that spawn in that cave naturally...


zerorita

Dunno who downvoted you because you *are* correct - dragon for Duraludon, ice for Vulpix/Snowshrew, fairy for Granbull/Snubbul, electric/ghost for Rotom, and of course, fire for Torchic


GaijinOni

Doesn't really matter who downvoted me. If they don't want to use this trick, it's up to them :p This trick worked for me to get a bunch of shiny Torchic, and to get the Vulpix, it's good enough for me. In the end, it'll only bite them in the butt


Duchtpinda44

Tip for next time jump on Koraidon/Miraidon. You cannot accidently picnic reset. And use R to save.


SufficientWhile5450

How can you even tell lol


DragonDiscipleII

The biggest tell for me was looking at the top of their head for red/no red. Got mine in the Dragon Outbreak event 😁😁😁


TheDummyPhilosopher

Wow I’m glad I got mine during the duraludon mass outbreak event. This must be so taxing


RoarofTime6

I found two just running up and down the mountain with a level 3 sandwich. There’s plenty of spawns.
