Finally got my shiny Tyranitar after 2469 encounters!

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?

Keep up the great work! Love seeing content like this on the forum.

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

You've inspired me to give this a try. Wish me luck!

Couldn't agree more. You've hit the nail on the head here.

My journey started similarly. Pokemon really brings back memories.

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

Don't give up, fellow trainer! The grind is worth it.

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

I've been a Bug type specialist since Gen 9, and I can confirm this.

Mewtwo is definitely one of my favorites too!

What would you recommend for beginners starting out with this?

Pro tip: Save before attempting this so you can reset if needed!

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