For those who may be confused, he did mis speak at the beginning there. For roaring moon, he meant to say dark and DRAGON, not dark and flying. Roaring moon isn't flying, and from what I can tell he's using dragon, since sneasels aren't popping up everywhere. Just came to the comments to clear that up :))) thanks Austin your videos are unbelievably helpful!

PSA: You can do a similar method when doing mass outbreaks. Sometimes you’ll notice if you drive into the outbreak too fast you will only see a few Pokémon but if you approach slowly or pan your camera slowly a bunch will spawn all around you. 73 shinies and counting, this method is effective.

I love how you can hardcore hunt like this or also have fun just running around and finding random shinys. If this was more optimized and had more anti aliasing this would probably be the best game ever

You can also hunt for Iron Valiant in the other massive cave system where research area 4 is. They only show up if you have a fairy encounter power as well, so I recommend the sparkling fairy level 3 + fairy encounter power level 3. They will legit be EVERYWHERE in the cave, its kind of nuts. I found that way more spawn in this cave system than the one shown in the video where you can actually find them normally

So my brother and I were co op paradox hunting in area zero, so we could get the opposite version paradoxes. We made the sparkling electric burger sandwich and went to the massive slope by the second lab. We each only got 6 or 7 iron thorns/sandy shocks at a time, but auto battling made things so much faster than running back and forth because those two have a very small spawn area. So this method, specifically the auto battle variant, may be very helpful in smaller areas, such as the various cave systems.

People probably already pointed this out, but if you're going for Iron Valliant, you can just head down to the underground cavern, the one that goes down to the lab encased in crystals. As long as you stay out of the very bottom where there's water (where it spawns Glimorra and Golduck I think), you will only and exclusively encounter Iron Valliant. Whether the fact that the area around you is less open than the cave in the video is better or worse is up to debate though

Exit lab 4 and head straight down the path to the cliff. Jump down to flat crystal. The giant rock in front of you will spawn 15 Pokémon. Move away and walk back to easily despawn and respawn.

Always love your content. If I ever wanna learn anything about these games, it’s straight to you! Thank you! On a side note, I think an All Cave Entrance guide would be SO helpful. There are some outbreaks I can’t find and I believe they are in caves, but can’t figure it out!

For Iron Valiant I just go to research station 3 and run into the massive cave leading to the bottom. With Fairy encounter they'll be the only spawn, so running back and forth between the floating platform and the main path keeps spawning a ton of them without having to worry about spawning other pokemon. Also, for roaring moon dark sucks, both zweilous and sableye are single spawns. Also its dragon/dark type not flying. Just use dragon sandwich you only need to "compete" with zweilous.

You know I had this realization while I was hunting Roaring Moon and got to my seventh sandwich, but I never carried that over to any other hunt. Thanks for this. Keep doing what you do best, Austin.

When I was doing my Iron Valiant hunt I thought to myself "well, I need a shiny Greavard/Houndstone anyway so maybe I can multitask this hunt." When my shiny IV finally spawned, there were two buried packs of ghost dogs that spawned next to it and something told me to pop them up just to check and sure enough, one of the Greavard was shiny too. It was my first instance of double shinies, thankfully I had enough common sense to put down a hard save before going after either of them, haha.

Brilliant work as usual, my dude. I'm looking forward to the nest installment of the isolated encounters.

After watching this, I used this method to find a shiny Heracross in 4 minutes. If you keep to the cliff's edge northwest of the groundblight shrine and pace back and forth then it works extremely similarly to Austin's method for Slither Wing except there are no pack spawns to worry about, so you can move fast. Keeping to the cliff's edge makes the camera work simple. I was spawning well over 100 per minute.

I just arrived in Area Zero these days and I've now finished the story (it was a fantastice finale). When I first saw all the Paradox Pokemon, I knew I need the Shinies. Thanks for the helpful tips! By the way, talking about Raichu: I got a full odds Shiny about 10~15 minutes after my first arrival in Area Zero. That was a nice way to welcome me there :)

Thank you Austin with your videos you make shiny hunts much easier

Thank you! I will be trying this myself!

Friendly reminder: Be VERY careful not to run away from pokemon you want to catch while in coop. I ran away from a shiny indeedee cause I forgot to save while in local coop, and she despawned. I don't know if saving before the shiny will keep it there if you reload from a coop game. Coop may be faster numbers, but the likelihood of failing the shiny also increases if you're used to running from them to save.

I ran around in that cave last weekend because a friend tipped me off to the increased Chansey spawns in there and I got two accidental shinies while grinding. And now there's a video about just that area. Neat! Also, as a Violet player, let me just say how much I love Slither Wing's design. They look so much more appealing swarming the area than all the Iron Hands I've been getting. Though Iron Hands has certainly been amazing in raids.

Awesome video it really does work quite well. I was able to reliably get several Roaring Moons to keep spawning instead of occasionally getting some to spawn here and there. I wouldn't have ever thought to do this and probably would still be shiny hunting Roaring Moon currently. I tried two times without this trick with no luck, but I tried it with this trick twice and got it the second time. I also had enough time to shiny hunt the other dragons in the cave and got myself a shiny Zweilous and a shiny Gible. Quite a fruitful harvest from that sparkling dragon sandwich thanks to you.

Great video! Would love to see one on mons like tandemaus and other non-isolated ones that are pretty hard to get shiny fors

Nall nailed it, but just a heads up to anybody just trying this out. You should turn off autosave and manually save before starting the fight. In the event you need to restart, you lose the remainder of what was on your sandwich power, but one sandwich for one shiny is still good.

Tip for anyone going for Iron Valiant: it’s much easier to take a Fairy sandwich and start at the bottom of Base 4 going up until the entrance of the cavern. It has much better spawn rates than the original cave, no other pokes and this exact trick works for Iron Hands using an electric sandwich as well.

I 100% agree with what another commenter said the other day that you are the real-life Pokémon Professor. This video also explains how I got extremely lucky to get my shiny Roaring Moon on my first try. I always do shiny hunting slow-and-steady because I don’t want to accidentally despawn one. But, now I know that going fast is perfect for pack spawns. Thanks!!

This tech can probably work for a lot of the more rare spawns that are usually near a bunch of pack spawns, like how Eevee spawns near a bunch of Meowth/Persian packs

of course i see this literally immediately after getting a back to back shiny iron valiant, the exact same way you found the back to back shiny roaring moon, really useful video for when i play scarlet though! thanks!

This method helps a lot with hunting Shroomish as well. You'll still see Deerlings but Hoppips and Skiplooms only spawn in that area in groups.

I don’t think I’ll use this method during the entire hunt, but I did find a way to do it a little more efficiently if you don’t want to tip-toe around despawn borders like I do (and have OCD about your Pokémon’s levels and don’t want to auto battle) I found that if you do a circle around where the points of the ‘diamond’ in the center of the 4 circles is (with a little variation if one Pokémon is just slightly not on the border yet) you’ll consistently despawn 1-2 Zweilous/Roaring Moon at a time once you’ve isolated them from other spawns. It’s like herding sheep, except stragglers get snapped out of existence lol

Definitely using this for my last 2 shiny paradoxes, but I didn't even bother with that cave for iron valiant since a fairy sandwich makes it a completely isolated spawn throughout the lower levels anyway

The way I got my shiny Iron Valliant was roaming around and going in a out, when the fighting sandwich I had (made by my friend shoutout to him) was running out I want to a research sation, teleported to another and came back and found the shiny in the cave. That took some time and I found the shiny with two mins on the clock left. Now I know this is a thing. Your videos always help out Austin. 👍🏼

Wish I had this video a few days ago when I was hunting. Ended up with 5 zweilous, 3 gible and a sneasel before I found my first shiny roaring moon. Happy there's now a method with less suffering
