I will never undestand this shit.
I would get it if this was a server-side game, but god fricking dammit people can literally pkhex any fricking shiny they want.
I love the slowly depleting HP bar when Explosion is used, you can really feel the dread settle in as it depletes and you cannot do anything about it
Had this happen with a shiny Graveller back in DP, I was at the very end of the Riolu cave
Why does every single Shiny hunter go >OH MY FRICKING GOD OMG OMG A SHINY A SHINY OMG!!!!!!
But when I find a shiny I just say "oh cool, a shiny, nice" in my mind?
Being stoic about what?
Shinies are neat but they aren't worth going crazy over
I'd understand a reaction like >OH MY FRICKING GOD OMG OMG HOLY FRICKING SHIT over winning a lottery but not shinies
This, purely for reactions and thumbnails, the majority of these “hunters” have child audiences.
See someone like Gen3Hunter for an example of adults streaming for adult audiences.
Because you're 19 and think being stoic about everything is super cool and more "adult"
Nothing stoic about it
You’re either a pathetic nu-male or you’re normal
They're doing it for views. Also as you get more used to shinies the excitement kinda mellows out. My recent shinies I was just amused to get them compared to the WAOWWWW I used to do when I was a kid
No, you should haven't wasted 36 days of the prime of your life trying to achieve something that'll not make your life any better and no one gives a shit about
Shiny hunting the static legends is zero effort and if it took that long it just means he was only doing it an hour or two a day while watching whatever.
/shw/, but only on weekends and not necessarily every weekend. the threads are kind of slow now but will probably be fast enough to go from shiny hunt weekend to shiny hunt general once SV is out
As much as I like Chugga, I'll never believe this was a legit shiny. None of the wild Pokemon he encountered beforehand are shown, and he cuts away after catching the Koffing, so there could have been some kind of gameshark frickery going on. Plus, his shiny just happens to be the Pokemon he specifically sought out, and he just happens to be ready to read off shiny Pokemon statistics. The whole thing feels rehearsed to me.
>shiny pokemon statistics >the 1/8192 odds everyone fricking knows and that's it
damn you got him, you figured out the code. now you just have to go to your local grocery store and find the secret message left in the barcodes by your gangstalkers
back in like 2016 I used to laugh at onions faces and be bitter towards people, but tbh now I genuinely feel happy for people when theyre excited for stuff
I really dont get the hate, it feels really dumb when you take a step back
I would be happy for the people who do this too, if it were anywhere close to genuine. Fortunately my only encounters with the gape are from my infrequent visits to these boards. Tend to enjoy playing games more than watching others are piss and moan about them on basket weaving forums.

What's it like being moronic? You do realize there's a middle ground between emotionless and putting on a face by acting like a homosexual, right?
You realize people who make these faces do it because they know it'll get views, right? It's part of a Youtube algorithm and is usually not "genuine" at all.
See, you'd have a point if they were actually being genuine and not just playing it up like crazy for the camera because the average moronic normalgay consoomer is a gullible moron.
Speaking of which, My condolences for the IQ points you lost in the past six years that you've since become one of such people.
Perhaps /qa/ really did win the war that faithful night, alas, moderator turned demimoderator "Hiroshima Nishimura" and his janitors used their powers to end the posting on that hallowed board, to update the banlist, a final act of deception to cloud the minds of his realm, to convince this world of it's destruction, and it's end. But perhaps the spirit of a people, the soul of an idea, can never be contained, and shall never be destroyed.
As a girl who only casually beat Pokemon 4 and maybe 3... and dropped the 5th one in the middle, I never understood what the point of this Shiny hype was. Like your pokemon looks a little different so? Aren't those IV fluids and EV things more important anyway? The hidden things no one can see that make your Pokemon superior to the rest of the pokemon from its own race?
Actually, I think the guy I'm talking about is obsessed with gen 2 shiny roamers. He came up with a bunch of new methods to hunt them. I think he's hunting all the roamers. Checking, yeah, his name is hangarofroam
I will never undestand this shit.
I would get it if this was a server-side game, but god fricking dammit people can literally pkhex any fricking shiny they want.
>wh-why play the game when you can just...le cheat!!?!?
frick off moron
How is rerolling for hours and days considered "play".
mandatory
What would his parents think?
SOUL
SOULLESS
The best part of this that I forget every time is the way his screaming peaks the mic so hard that the music keeps fading in and out
Imagine being the parent of a full grown man that screams like this at a videogame made for children.
>17 years later and everyone who plays legends arceus gets a free shiny ponyta
Mental illness worse than troonyism

this thread is going to be kino, i can feel it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjB5USTKu6g

why didn't he just attack it?
he lost his balls the moment he realized he forgot his explosion insurance
Lost my shit when I realized he had Ultra Balls.
How does someone this autistic about mechanics not realize quick ball catch rate is literally 1x after the first turn?
least autistic unova fan

It's fricking hilarious, never fails to crack me up
How can grown men freak like a toddler at this shit
interesting its the same pokemon as in the famous firered shiny hint vid
Ponyta brings out the autism in people
It's almost like he's trying to be a cheap copycat or something.
Oh man, I thought the autistic flapping was funny enough. Never heard it with the fricking chimp noises coming out of him.
Is this why they give you an easy shiny ponyta in legends
THERE IT IS
THERE IT IS
THERE IT IS
Why does every single Shiny hunter go >OH MY FRICKING GOD OMG OMG A SHINY A SHINY OMG!!!!!!
But when I find a shiny I just say "oh cool, a shiny, nice" in my mind?
exaggerated reaction = more views or something

EMPOLEON USE BIDE
>*gasp*
He found another shiny not many days after this one and his reaction was ",Hm, that's another shiny"
>tfw the shiny animation ruins your time
This is a CLASSIC. Been watching this one since I was 18. One of my favorite "feel better about yourself" videos.
>"should've used a master ball"
No, you should haven't wasted 36 days of the prime of your life trying to achieve something that'll not make your life any better and no one gives a shit about
Shiny hunting the static legends is zero effort and if it took that long it just means he was only doing it an hour or two a day while watching whatever.
His mom talking in the background lmfao
Please, make a montage of that guy reacting to his girlfriend onlyfans videos, instead of shiny hunting.
His latest video was posted 12 years, ago. Onlyfans wasn't even a thing, then.
How come /vp/ doesn't have a shiny general?
I would've thought that of all things in the Pokemon community, this board would have a general for shiny hunting.
/shw/ is a fairly regular general here, there's just not one up right now.
/shw/, but only on weekends and not necessarily every weekend. the threads are kind of slow now but will probably be fast enough to go from shiny hunt weekend to shiny hunt general once SV is out
Vp has a lot of generals. They just get archived really fast when troonys and coomers spam the board
>shiny hunting with speedup
what's the appeal
SmallAnt is the only one with a normal reaction, topkek

Are you moronic?
nah, what's the point?
I would be happy for the people who do this too, if it were anywhere close to genuine. Fortunately my only encounters with the gape are from my infrequent visits to these boards. Tend to enjoy playing games more than watching others are piss and moan about them on basket weaving forums.
nobody actually reacts like that to anything unless they're under the age of 10, it's played up for the camera.
Because you grew up. You're not a 19 year old that thinks being emotionless and stoic like your favorite edgy anime character is cool anymore.

>find shiny of mon i dislike
>kill it and post pics in shiny hunting threads
It's over
See, something like Ilex Forest Celebi I could understand shiny hunting for.
>Why yes! I had my 27th dose of the vaccine. How could you tell???
he looks like Joe Biden

>all these over the top reactions
>never once felt my excitement soar like this
I’m almost jealous tbh. Hand flailing and man child screaming aside, it must be nice to feel this level of excitement for something.
Perhaps /qa/ really did win the war that faithful night, alas, moderator turned demimoderator "Hiroshima Nishimura" and his janitors used their powers to end the posting on that hallowed board, to update the banlist, a final act of deception to cloud the minds of his realm, to convince this world of it's destruction, and it's end.

breasts or GTFO
obvious troon, don't be a moron
>asking for breasts on a 95% female board like /vp/
mfw when a poketuber
Only time I ever thought a reaction like this was worth it was when I watched some guy get 2 shiny roamers in 1 stream.
I'd so.y the frick out if I met a gen 2 shiny roamer, not gonna lie
Actually, I think the guy I'm talking about is obsessed with gen 2 shiny roamers. He came up with a bunch of new methods to hunt them. I think he's hunting all the roamers. Checking, yeah, his name is hangarofroam
It's all bullshit for camera. Also I like AbsolBlogs
