Greetings Pokefans! Michael here. So I’ve been watching a lot of Pewdiepie
videos lately, and one thing that he does that I’ve noticed makes jokes more funny
is when he ZOOMS IN ON HIS FACE...so yeah I think that’s something I want to start
doing for more fun. So now that Pokémon Sun and Moon have been
out for just over 2 months, the vast majority of you have probably completed the main story,
and a solid chunk of you may have completed the Pokedex as well and received the shiny
charm, like myse
lf. Because of that, you’re probably looking
for things to do in the postgame. Competitive battling is an option, but if
you’re like me and don’t want to do that and the Battle Tree proves too difficult and
frustrating, one thing many have turned to is shiny hunting. Shiny hunting is bigger than it’s ever been
before, with shiny Pokémon regularly appearing on my twitter feed from all sorts of different
people. Now while I’m not much of a shiny hunter
myself, seeing all this has me itching to get
into it and start some hunting of my own. So in this video, I’m going to be counting
down what I believe to be the coolest shiny Pokémon to hunt for in Pokémon Sun and Moon. These Pokémon will be ones currently available
in Sun and Moon and therefore won’t include any Pokémon that you have to transfer in. In addition to that, this video will mostly
feature fully evolved Pokémon that you can’t catch in the wild or hatch so therefore you
can’t actually hunt for that Pokémon specifically. However
since the end goal of hunting for
pre-evolutions is usually a shiny final evolution and most of the time I like the final evolved
shiny better anyways, those will be what I discuss. So be sure to comment below what Pokémon
you think have the coolest shinies, leave a like on the video, and subscribe if you
haven’t, and without further ado, here are the top 10 coolest shiny Pokémon to hunt
for in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Number 10 - Umbreon Umbreon is my favorite eeveelution, but I
also think it has
the coolest shiny form of all of them as well. Changing the yellow rings to a sleek blue
looks awesome, and that combined with the yellow eyes truly makes it seem like a unique
creature of the night. There are two ways to get a shiny Umbreon:
Masuda Method or SOS chaining. Masuda Method for those who don’t know is
where breeding two Pokémon from two different national origins increases the chance of the
hatched Pokémon being shiny. So to get a shiny Umbreon, you could breed
for a shiny Eevee and
evolve it through friendship. SOS chaining, where you keep a battle going
due to one Pokémon calling for help, also works well since the chance for a shiny Pokémon
appearing goes drastically up the more Pokémon arrive in the battle. You can SOS chain for shiny Eevees on Route
4 or 6, but if you chain at night and you’re extremely lucky, the Eevee might even call
a shiny Umbreon. That’s a very small chance so you’re probably
better off catching a shiny Eevee and evolving it, but who knows? Numbe
r 9 - Aegislash Aegislash’s shiny was the best Gen 6 shiny
in my opinion, and I know many people agree with me since I saw shiny Aegislash everywhere...although
with the competitive scene everyone saw Aegislash everywhere but whatever. I think Shiny Aegislash looks a lot more badass
than regular Aegislash, mainly because of the dark grey blade, glowing yellow eye, and
red coloring along the edge of the blade that kinda looks like blood. I personally think this should have been the
regular colori
ng they went with because it looks so awesome. If you want a shiny Aegislash, you have to
either Masuda Method breed for Honedge or soft reset for Honedge with Island Scan. I personally recommend doing the Masuda Method,
since Island Scan would be much harder. First you have to Island Scan for it on Akala
Island on a Wednesday, then once you get to the area where it is, you have to soft reset
for it since Island Scan Pokémon don’t call for help. Now while this is more time consuming, it’s
actual
ly a big challenge since you only have one real-time hour before it disappears and
you have to wait for your scanner to recharge before you can try it again. So yeah, Masuda Method is probably the way
to go. Number 8 - Vikavolt Vikavolt is my favorite Gen 7 Pokémon, and
I am very happy that its shiny form is really cool as well. The sleek silver makes it seem metallic and
fierce, but the green pincer stripes and bright red face add vibrancy to it that makes an
awesome looking contrast, almost li
ke a high tech computer with cool LED lights. If you want a shiny Vikavolt, you can either
Masuda Method breed for Grubbin, SOS chain for Grubbin on Routes 1, 4, 5, or 6, or SOS
for Charjabug at Blush Mountain. I personally recommend SOS chaining for Grubbin,
since it would likely be less time consuming than Masuda Method, and Grubbin is much more
likely to call for help than Charjabug. Number 7 - Braviary I didn’t actually know Braviary had a cool
shiny form until I started making this video, b
ut holy crap it looks awesome. What changes for ‘Murca bird here is that
it switches the red and blue on its back and it shifts its belly plumage to be more brown
than navy, and I think it looks really good. That shade of blue is probably my favorite
color, and keeping the same general theme of colors but switching their locations around
is one of the best ways to make a shiny Pokémon in my opinion. If you want a shiny Braviary, it’ll depend
on which version you’re playing. If you’re in Moon, yo
ur only option is to
Masuda Method breed for Rufflet. However if you’re playing Sun, you of course
still have the Masuda Method option, but you can also SOS chain for Rufflet on Route 3
or Braviary on the Poni Plains. I personally recommend SOS chaining for Rufflet,
since it is substantially more likely to call for help than Braviary is. Number 6 - Decidueye Merry Christmas suckas! Shiny Decidueye is here to bring Christmas
cheer all year round with his arrows of yuletide spirit. Literally every
aspect of Shiny Decidueye
is Christmas-y and I love it. Its wings look like a christmas tree speckled
with snow, its hood is like a wreath, and it even has a red gift bow right under its
face. I love it so much. Delibird may always be the go-to Christmas
Pokémon, but I think Shiny Decidueye is the uncontested runner-up. If you want a shiny Decidueye, you probably
will have to Masuda Method for it. The only way to get a Rowlet in your own game
is to hatch it or start with it, so while you could
soft reset at the beginning of the
game like my friend thesupremerk9s did, I doubt you’re going to want to since you’d
either have to start your game over or buy another one. Also the cutscene is like 3 minutes so you
have to have god-like patience, which Dallas obviously does. Number 5 - Lycanroc I personally think Midday Lycanroc is the
better of the two forms, but this entry is for both of them because I think both shiny
forms look great. Both are blue, which as I said before is my
favorite c
olor, but even if it wasn’t I think the blue coloring fits them really well. Shiny Midday Lycanroc looks like a steely
fierce winter wolf, and shiny Midnight Lycanroc looks like a different breed of werewolf,
which of course still looks really cool. If you want a shiny Lycanroc, you can either
Masuda Method breed for Rockruff, SOS chain for Rockruff in Ten Carat Hill’s Farthest
Hollow, or SOS chain for either form of Lycanroc in Vast Poni Canyon. Assuming you’re playing the version that
will mak
e Rockruff evolve into the form that you want, I recommend SOS chaining for Rockruff,
since it calls for help more than Lycanroc and it will likely be faster than Masuda method. Number 4 - Palossand Lots of people have praised shiny Palossand,
and I agree with them. Alola features 2 black sand beaches, so making
the shiny sand castle Pokémon the color of a different kind of sand is really creative. And in addition to its cool inspiration, it
looks awesome. If you want to find yourself a shiny Pa
lossand,
you can either Masuda method or SOS chain for Sandygast on Hano Beach. I, like the other entries, recommend SOS chaining. Tends to be more successful from what I’ve
seen. Number 3 - Golisopod When I first saw shiny Golisopod, I immediately
wanted one. The white coloring with the blue spots and
red...face stuff...looks really badass. Like a winter trilobyte of death. I want one. Unfortunately, WImpod doesn’t call for help,
so if you want a shiny Golisopod, you’ll either have to masuda me
thod or soft reset
for a wild one on Route 8, the Poni Wilds, or the Poni Breaker Coast. Obviously Masuda Method is better in this
case since the chances are higher. Number 2 - Gigalith Gigalith is my favorite rock type Pokémon,
partially because a four legged stone creature with red spikes coming out of it looks awesome,
but also because its shiny form is one of my favorites of all of them. Changing the red spikes to a bright electric
blue looks epic, and I really want one of my own. If you wan
t a shiny Gigalith, you can Masuda
method breed or SOS chain for Roggenrola in Ten Carat Hill or for Boldore in Vast Poni
Canyon. SOS chaining for Roggenrola will likely lead
to success the quickest, but it might get frustrating due to Sand Attack and Sturdy. Trust me on this one. But one way to get around it is to use a Keen
Eye Toucannon with Bullet Seed. Which I still need to make. I need one of these. Number 1 - Minior I really like Minior a lot. It’s adorable, has an interesting gimmick,
an
d is surprisingly pretty good in competitive. But I also really like how it has a bunch
of different color options, making it so each Minior is differentiated from the others. It seems like this aspect of it would make
its shiny form tricky to design, but I think shiny Minior is perfect. Making it black, the absence of all colors,
with speckles of all of Minior’s other color options looks SO COOL. I NEED IT. If you want a shiny Minior, your only option
outside of random encounters is to Masuda M
ethod breed. It can’t call for help, but even if it could,
it would probably blow itself up with Self Destruct and end the battle anyways. On the bright side, Minior hatches in shields
down form. Could you imagine having to take every baby
Minior into battle and half its health so you can see what’s under its shell? Only masochists would have shiny Miniors if
that were the case. So there we have it! Those are the Top 10 Coolest Shiny Pokémon
to hunt in Pokémon Sun and Moon...in my opinion of cou
rse. But whatever shiny Pokémon you decide to
hunt, I wish you the greatest of successes. What did you think of this video? Do you agree with my list? What Pokémon do you think have the coolest

Currently soft resetting for Type: Null. Only just started and am only on 35. Wish me luck...
I nearly cried when I got my shiny minior, it's the cutest and coolest thing and does rlly well in battles.
I have a terrible luck with shinies. Having played every generation, I have never encountered a single shiny
Okay, funny story. So, I had an hour to kill one day, so I decided to hunt for a Magikarp. I got it in thirty-ish encounters, taking me about half an hour. I then decided to hunt Masuda breed for a shiny Mineor. Ten eggs later and I have that black star staring at me, and the first thing out of my mouth was, "Are you fucking kidding me? A month of off and on hunting, and now I got it in ten eggs? What the hell?"
I got a little experimental with the editing in this video. Let me know what you think! Also, check out my subreddit! I'd love to build the community there. www.reddit.com/r/mandjtv
Shiny Charjabug is the bus from Spongebob Squarepants. 😂
Shiny hunting in these games is so fun! I’ve hunted over 20 in Ultra Moon, currently chaining for a Phantump :)
my friend got a level 100 shiny decidueye from wonder trade
Will you be doing another Strange Pokémon Physics video anytime soon? I'm a big fan of those videos.
I think shiny gigalith's spikes looks like he's a legendary
10:10 you can also use a mega absol. It's ability is magic bounce. This makes it so moves like sand attack are bounced back at the enemy pokemon. Very very useful for shiny hunting. Absol also can learn false swipe, so it helps keep them low
The coolest shiny is Shiny Magikarp
Im going to hunt shiny rockruff now!
I found two random encountered shiny magby while watching this video, so thanks Michael!
The shinies that have been Wonder Traded to me are: An Eevee (which I evolved into an Umbreon), A Metagross, a Rockruff, a driftloon and a mareanie. Shinies I have found in the wild randomly: gurdurr and haunter back to back, a lampent Lastly I Masuda Method bred for a shiny Snorunt female so I could get a Shiny Frosslass. I got a Shiny Female Snorunt after 327 eggs.
my favorite shiny is delelelelelelelelele wooooooooooooop
Yes finaly a New top 10!
Decidueye is the BEST shiny Pokemon in my opinion
