Outbreak hunting in Scarlet/Violet - The fastest way to get shinies!

If you haven't tried outbreak hunting yet, you're missing out on the most efficient shiny hunting method in the current games.


**Why Outbreaks are Amazing:**

- Base odds in outbreaks: 1/2048

- With Shiny Charm: 1/1365

- After 60 KOs: Up to 1/512.44!

**The Method:**

1. Check your map for mass outbreaks

2. Travel to the outbreak location

3. Start defeating Pokemon (don't catch unless shiny)

4. After 60 KOs, odds are maximized

5. Keep hunting until the outbreak ends

**Sandwich Power:**

Combine with a Sparkling Power sandwich for even better odds! The Level 3 Sparkling Power adds extra shiny rolls.

**My Tips:**

- Save before starting the outbreak

- Use a strong Pokemon with spread moves

- Keep Let's Go mode active

- Don't fast travel (can reset outbreaks)

I've gotten 15 shinies this month using this method. What's your best outbreak find?

For anyone struggling with this, patience is key. Don't give up!

This brings up a good point. What do others think about this?

Has anyone tried this with a different approach? Curious to hear alternatives.

I see where you're coming from, though I have a slightly different take on this.

Quick question - does this method work in the newer games too?

I need to try this ASAP. Saving this thread!

The nostalgia is hitting hard with this post.

This is exactly what I was thinking! Glad someone put it into words.

This reminds me of when I first started playing. Good times!

How long did this take you? I'm considering trying it myself.

This community is amazing. Thanks for being so helpful!

Great discussion topic! There's so much to unpack here.

This made my day. Thanks for posting!

Interesting perspective! I never thought about it that way before.

Finally, someone who gets it!

My journey started similarly. Pokemon really brings back memories.

I've been looking for something like this. Much appreciated!

Any tips for someone who's new to competitive battling?
