Baby blue duh. Though the None story cannon Necrozma Instantly gets Glow as its shiny due to that fact alone

Drifblim can learn Self Destruct, Explosion, Imprison, and Hypnosis. It's also immune to double edge because it's a ghost. Minior always have double edge. Drifblim is the superior catcher for Minior. Good luck fellow trainers.

I used ceruledge to knock out minior. Used golduck with damp and just saved before the shiny just in case. Then caught it in a luxury ball ! :] actually I got two as I ran into another right away so that was crazy! No sandwich just a shiny charm and some resetting outbreaks once they dispersed. Mine is a red core!

I’ve already got 4 of the 7 Minior I need, and I’ve managed to build a Poliwrath with a Low Kick that does enough to damage it and not KO. Too bad the only Damp Pokémon with False Swipe is Paras/Parasect. I’m using outbreaks instead of just looking for Groups, so I can ensure it’s the color I need

Got two Shiny Minior from my first sando! Glad I watched this before going after it though, 'cause I was able to bring a Kingdra with Damp and save both Shinies from literally blowing up in my face lol

Got mine with a crit capture. Didn't realize the could explode until later while farming BBQ

Something I have noticed that never used to happen to me before Indigo Disk, if I enter a battle and run the Pokemon I was in battle with despawns. Not sure if this is because I was in a union circle (was far away from the other player) or not since I never bothered running before I started doing BBQs in union circle, but every Pokemon I ran from last night (wild teras and random mons alike) despawned immediately.

@mockingjay478

7 ай бұрын

Pokemon despawn if you run away while in a Union Circle, even if you're near the other player. It handles you running away differently and despawns every time. It's been the case the whole time, as well. It's just how Scarlet/Violet handles it, but is much more noticeable in the new DLC as more people will be playing in Union Circles and running from Pokemon

Thx brooo❤❤❤

Hopefully I can find a shiny Minior the same why I found my shiny Zorua, by complete random chance!

I had to gush a bit, I went to the cave to do the sandwich for Minior, but when I walkes in three spawned in front of me. I was juat going to picnic and make a sandwich but i thought I should check them out just incase and Bam! There it was, shiny Minior infront of me. I didnt believe it, I think I sent my pokemon out six times to autobattle because i was convinced it was bad terrain stopping the auto battle. So happy! 🎉

Is every shiny minior black with the different color speckles?

What I did was get a Smeargle with Explosion, Double Edge, Imprison and False Swipe. Turn one, imprison, so that Minior can no longer kill itself at all. And then just chip away at its hp until it's in HP range for capture. Getting Explosion on Smeargle was a bit tricky, NGL. I needed something with Damp on the field to do it.

@@roysdenda5930 that works only if *MILD SPOILER ALERT* you've already finished the story mode and have your permanent Tera orb charge. Otherwise, it's a pain to go back to the center every time to recharge it. Anyway, once it can't kill itself, I've no problem chucking balls until it stays, so status isn't that big of a deal to me

I use imprison on a ghost with explosion, then hypnosis and nightshade as other moves since nightshade will be close to false swipe damage

Use Golduck with these moves - Skill Swap - Soak - Yawn/Hypnosis (optional) After you skill swap damp onto the minior you’re free to use whatever you want. Soak changes it to water type just so it doesn’t resist false swipe. I’d switch to a Smeargle with technician that knows these moves - False Swipe - Spore - Imprison - Double Edge Or any tera ghost Breloom/Gallade/Iron Valiant/etc. If you have way too many tera shards then do that, otherwise Smeargle might be easier to train up.

I just brought by quagsire with the ability damp for my shiny... And I hunted mine in the coastal biome on top of the mountain as it's the only rocl type to spawn there.

found this video a few hours after i failed minior at 27 encounters now im on 830

lee what’s ur varoom build pls tell I wanna hunt minior

Ran into random shiny minior, it blew itself up, so then I spent another few hours finding my second one and used masterball😂

four master balls in my inventory sound soooooo tempting with this...

You should stream some minior hunts sometime 😊

I've seen 2 shiny ones 1 on top for the canyon mountain it exploded, the other was down next to the ice (near the center) got that one both without a sandwich

I love the gen 7 mons so much

Damp Golduck is just a great "catcher" pokemon in general. Soak, Skill Swap, ect. all have great catching utility. Especially paired with a Spore/False Swipe Breloom.

@McJohnRiveraJr

you can use synchro to get to the 60 pokemon knockedout mark, but after that don't use it! they'll kill any shiny u find with no hesitation lmao, and also using it you can go somewhere too far from ur trainer, so if u find a shiny and exit synchro it can despawn also

i tried this. im on hour three. distance and new spawns are my enemy.

Messed up the sandwich and only got a boost to rock and no shiny boost, but I stuck it through and I got it! I just wish Minior didn’t spawn on terrain that make your Pokémon not kill it and make me think it’s a shiny 😭

After giving up on obtaining a second herba mystica I unpaused to hear I can only use one and be fine (and I see that gives me level 2 instead of level 3) but holy shit, why can't the food stay on the sandwich and actually give me sparkling power?? 😭

It's hard in sun and moon. But very easy in sv due to save button carrying all hunts.

It took some work, but i found every trainer in the tererium

A useful setup is lvl 100 poliwrath with about 75 hp, and maxed out defenses. Use endeavor, which guarantees putting minior below half health turn 1. If you need to revive him, lower your poliwrath’s health using moves like belly drum or double edge in battles with other pokemon

I bred for mine it was the worse luck I ever had it took me 3 days to finally get a shiny minior. Another thing I found a random shiny minior days later when I was just wondering around.

This is why you use a Pokemon that flies/hovers like Varoom or Vikavolt. Minior also tends to draw close if you get close enough, so you can potentially use that to lure it to somewhere pathing shouldn't be an issue.

We've known about Pokemon that SD for a long time.

honestly shiny hunting minior isnt that bad, took me around 3 hours to get mine. decently fast.
