Reddit user Radiant-Pin-89 had spotted a shiny Shinx and was preparing to sneak up on it, but it became aggressive. After feeding it some food, another Pokemon nearby was preparing an attack, so they moved out of the way. When they turned around to see what Pokemon it was, it was another shiny Shinx. After throwing a Poke Ball at the first Shinx and catching it, they turned their attention to the second. Weakening it with a Sticky Glob, they were able to catch the second shiny Shinx as well.
The most incredible part about this clip is that Radiant-Pin-89 found these two shiny Shinx outside of an Outbreak and without the Shiny Charm. Both of those things increase players' chances of finding a shiny Pokemon, and Radiant-Pin-89 also said that they also did not have Shinx’s Pokedex entry 100% completed either. Having a complete Pokedex inPokemon Legends: Arceusalso increases players' odds of finding a shiny Pokemon.
In a certified unicorn moment, Radiant-Pin-89 had the lowest possible odds of finding a single shiny Pokemon, let alone two of them. WhilePokemon Legends: Arceusdoes have one of the highest rates for finding shiny Pokemonif all the shiny multipliers are put together, the fact that a player managed to find two of them at the same time without the multipliers is unfathomable.
Pokemon Legends: Arceuscontinues to keep players occupied with exploration and shiny hunting. There are stillplenty of things that players are discovering through their time withPokemon Legends: Arceus, and it looks like that will continue for quite some time.
Pokemon Legends: Arceusis available now exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
