Acquiring Pokemon Shiny is an art form and the process is no different in Pokemon Sword and Shield. Although all trainers start with a 4096 in XNUMX chance of encountering one, there are several techniques to increase the chances of them appearing in the game. There is the Masuda method of raising The eggs, or you can chain The Pokémon in the wild, which fight the same species over and over again. There is another technique to chain trainers of Pokémon encountered while fishing.
You have to fish in the wild area.
The concept was first created in Generation 6 for catching Pokémon Shiny. Now you can do that in Pokemon Sword and Shield to locate shiny Pokemon. This technique requires you to continuously fish for The Pokémon in one location. You want to stay in a single area, so fight against The Pokémon of the ideal level range you want to meet.
To chain fish properly, you need to defeat the Pokémon you engage with and successfully start a battle. If you run away, lose, catch the Pokemon, leave the area, or turn off the game you start from scratch, as the streak ends. This shouldn't take too many hooks from you, however. You continue the chain if you have a Pokémon that has passed out in battle or if you are camping.
Here is the total number of times you have to hook a Pokemon to increase the odds.
- 0 to 2: A shiny Pokemon could appear
- 3 to 6: You are 1,3 times more likely to encounter a shiny Pokemon
- 7 a.m. to 14 p.m .: You are 3,3 times more likely to catch a shiny Pokemon
- 15 to 24: You are 6,6 times more likely to win a shiny Pokemon
- 25+: You are 16,6 times more likely to win a Brilliant Pokémon
After you land 25 Hooks and defeat Pokémon, you'll maximize the increased chance of encountering them. This is much faster than the other methods and makes sense given the limited number of Pokémon you encounter while bringing them back and fishing them.
You'll know you've captured a shiny Pokemon by the little golden aura that radiates the splash of water before you fold it up and throw your fishing rod.
