heyguys free-market inés here have you
ever clicked on a shiny video only to
end up super confused because they're
just running around no hatching with
Masuda method no SOS chain I don't even
think they're using shiny charm wait a
second this can't be right no they don't
they could it but wait it's not just in
sun and moon they do this in all their
games this isn't right where's your fish
chain ever heard of the pokey radar it
says this guy's been shiny hunting for
five years but he's kind of dumb
someone's got to tell them these guys
are crazy these guys must not know how
to shiny hunt actually they do believe
it or not this by itself is its own type
of shiny hunting called full odds
hunting but because a lot of you guys
started shiny hunting with X&Y Omega
Ruby alpha sapphire and Sun and Moon
probably a lot more sun and moon than
the other two you guys are so used to
seeing all the method hunts that you
might not even know that floats hunting
is a thing but believe me it is this
video was highly requested in my
comments on every single shiny video
that I make because people are just so
baffled at the fact that why would you
go through this why do people put
themselves through all this turmoil when
you can just get the shiny so much
easier using a method like SOS hunting
now before I get into explaining what
full odds hunting is in detail I just
wanted to say just because I full a ton
it doesn't mean that I undermine method
hunting or think that method hunting is
like any less valuable than full odds
hunting a shiny a shiny and I
wholeheartedly believe that it's up to
the person that's hunting it to decide
how much they care about the shinier how
much it's worth like just because one
person uses hunting one way doesn't mean
that another way is wrong are you
getting what I'm saying we're all shiny
hunters
we're playing Pokemon like really it
doesn't matter it doesn't matter it
doesn't now with that out of the way I'm
gonna try and explain full odds hunting
as best I can to try and give you guys a
little grasp on why people do this for
starters full odds means a shiny at the
rarest odds that you can find them so in
any game before 6 Gen 1 in 8,192 are the
chances and from 6 gen on it's 1 in 4096
now when you full odds hunt there are no
training wheels yes I call them training
wheels but mainly because I couldn't
think of a different analogy to use each
training wheels this means that every
single Pokemon you encounter has the
same odds of being shiny as the one
before and the one actor so you could
find a shiny on the first encounter
which is extremely rare or you could not
find one after
which happens kind of a lot and there
are really only two ways to use this
full odds method and it's either random
accounting like I said before which is
running around or soft resetting which
is when you soft reset
turning your game off and on with the LR
start select button nothing affects
these odds and nothing changes though
that's the huge difference between for
hunting and Method hunting because most
the time for you method hunters while
you're progressing through your hunt as
you encounter more pokemon the chances
of finding a shiny are raising as you go
and that's just not the case for us and
yes raising the odds means a better
chance of finding the shiny and lowering
the odds means a worse chance of finding
a shiny just a bit of shiny hunting
trivia I think the biggest confusion
stems from the fact that people don't
understand why anybody would want to
spend more time getting the same thing
that you can get really easily using
something else but what you're missing
is the mindset of a full odds hunter our
main goal yes of course is to get the
shiny in the end but for us it's more of
a journey than a destination we want to
enjoy the hunt and it's really fun you
guys don't understand it's really fun to
not know when it's going to appear if we
knew it was gonna appear within the
first hundred we wouldn't react the way
that we do but because we have no idea
when it's actually going to appear it's
kind of a thrill not kind of it totally
is and again I'm not saying that
reacting to a method shiny is really any
different than reacting to a fois chanee
but for someone who is a seasoned
full-on sumter like so many of us are it
just it's not the same it's not the same
feeling and that doesn't mean it can't
be for you it doesn't mean that you
can't enjoy and love every single shiny
that you hunt using a method but for us
it's really more of a hobby to be able
to sit here and shiny hunt fur we don't
know how long we just don't know and
part of the fun is not knowing it's
really a challenge and yes we do spend a
lot more time than we probably should
doing it but I don't want you to think
that I just sit here mindless there are
so many full let's hunters that are
streaming now and are able to interact
with their viewer base and people that
watch their content because you don't
have to pay too much attention you have
to pay enough attention to not run from
a shiny which some of us are not good at
luckily that's not something I do very
often with method hunting it's very
different you have to pay attention to
what you're doing with chaining poky
radar and all those things you have to
look for shiny patches you have to do
there's really it's kind of a focused
thing whereas with full odds hunting
it's you just don't have to and that's
what's kind of fun about it too because
yes like I said before we have spent a
lot more time than we probably should
doing it but I've made so many friends
best friends just spending hours shiny
hunting and I wouldn't I wouldn't know
these people it wasn't for full-on
hunting another big reason there are so
many pullouts hunters is that yes
shinies have been around since the
second generation but it wasn't until
fourth generation that method hunting
was kind of brought into Pokemon
so before fourth gen so in third gen
LeafGreen fire red ruby sapphire emerald
even golden silver crystal a lot of
people hunted in those games shiny
hunting was a thing it just wasn't as
popular so when these methods are
introduced a lot of people just you know
they tried it but it was like you know
what I had a lot more fun doing it this
way I reacted a lot better and frankly
chaining was not very easy and fortune I
thankfully was pretty good at it I used
to chain a lot but I don't do it anymore
some people just didn't know how to
figure it out they didn't understand it
and yes methods are way easier now
whether you know it or not friend Safari
is so freakin easy it's random
encountering but the odds are 1 in 5 12
which is a dream fish chaining is so
incredibly easy all I have to do is reel
in a fish over and over and over and
that is not hard to do SOS is a little
more tricky because you have to pay
attention to pee-pee and attacking and
knowing what moves they have and if they
can hurt themselves things like that but
it's still a very easy tactic and you
get shinies a lot faster than you do
with any full odds method again of
course no hate but it was just easier to
stick with the random encounter so
that's what people did another big
question that I always get is is sports
hunting a different community than other
shiny hunters no that would mean that
full-on hunters hold themselves up here
where the method hunters are down here
that is complete garbage at least I'm
speaking for myself I can't speak for
everybody but the good majority of
fallouts hunters are very open and
honest and just good people that don't
care how anybody else hunts there's a
bit of a stigma against bullets hunters
because a lot of times at least when X&Y
first came out there was like a war
between the fallouts hunters and the
method hunters because people just
assumed that because our Chinese are a
little bit more rare that we think that
we're better than everybody else and yes
for some people that might be the case
but it's definitely not how I think and
it's not how my friends think I don't
associate people like that because it's
not
because they're full-on hunters that
they're like that it's because they're
bad people
so yes full odds hunters it's a
different type of method but we're all
shiny hunting like I said before we are
all shiny hunters and at the end of the
day none of it matters it is just good
fun with Pokemon so know it is one
community we are all shiny hunters and
you can be friends with a full odds
hunter and you can still method hunt
we're not gonna paint you or anything
like that you can do what you're doing
I'll do what I'm doing and everyone's
just happy just be happy and yes we know
that method hunts really make sure that
you're going to get the target that
you're looking for and I've had plenty
of punts where I had didn't get what I
wanted because I was using full outs
hunting but once again that is part of
the fun not knowing what you're gonna
get or when you're gonna get it is
really a thrill and if you get it early
and it's exactly what you want that's
why we freaked out that's why we love it
so much because that adrenaline rush of
like did that actually just happened did
I really get a full on shiny exactly
what I wanted that quick that feeling is
freaking amazing and you may have felt
it if you've ever had it fully random
shiny but if you've never sat down and
done a full odds hunt even if you're a
method hunter and you don't think that
full odds is for you give it a try you
might actually like it not trying to
convert you I'm just saying it might it
might be something you like you might
like it
I'll try method hunts we'll trade I
don't know if there's really any more I
need to say I feel like I covered
everything I'm trying to think of all
the comments that I get and trying to
cover all my bases I really just kind of
wanted to explain to you guys why I
don't use SOS and why I'm going to
continue full-out something instead of
using method hunts I'm a full that's
hunter by heart I know that it's what I
love to do I know it takes a little
longer and maybe I don't have as much
content because of it but I enjoy it so
that's what this is about right if you
enjoy method hunting then keep doing it
because you have fun doing it I enjoy
full hunting and I enjoy the way that I
hunt so I'm gonna keep doing it that way
but I guess that's gonna do it for this
edition of supreme thoughts if you
enjoyed this video if you liked
informational videos like this where I
kind of just explain things or talk to
you guys a bit give this video a thumbs
up and leave in the comments things that
you want me to talk about in another
video because I'll definitely do it a
Q&A is on its way so leave your comments
below and ask me anything you want with
hash tag boy stinks you can do it on
Twitter in the
snapchat Instagram all of that stuff
just you know ask me whatever you want
I'm available on all of them and I
interact with you guys a lot so if
you're not following me on Twitter
anything like that give it a try I hope
this video shed some light on full odds
hunting I know that it has been kind of
in the dark for a lot of you guys so I
hope that I explained it well wasn't a
scripted video I just kind of spoke from
my heart and said what I thought you
guys should know and if you have any
more questions just about this now you
can leave those in the comments too also
wanted to say thank you guys so much for
75,000 subscribers that number I can't I
can't even look at that number and not
feel like what the heck that is so
insane thank you guys so much
like really 100k is kind of close is it
bad for me to say that I feel like I
shouldn't say that but it's true hundred
that we're only 25,000 away and we've
grown so much this year I just thank you
guys it really is completely insane a
milk bath is coming shiny miltank I will
hunt it and if you want to see me try
SOS something I get so many comments you
guys saying why don't you SOS why won't
you just try it if you want to see me do
a video where I try SOS something it
doesn't mean I'm gonna consistently SOS
on doesn't mean that it's gonna become
my new shiny hunting method but I'm open
to the idea of trying it out on video
and so if enough of you guys comment
