 Hello friends welcome to today's video where we're gonna go through all the details of shiny hunting massive mass outbreaks in Pokemon Legends RCS. So with the news that we got in the Pokemon Presents yesterday alongside Generation 9 getting announced we also got a brand new update to Pokemon Legends RCS in the Daybreak DLC content taking us to update 1.1.0. In this content you're gonna have a brand new side quest that's available as soon as you finish the games and see the end credits, you're gonna be able to take part in this where you get introduced to Mai and she's gonna go through an array of different things about this new mechanic that we've now got available to us. Now massive mass outbreaks are made up of Pokemon that you're gonna see in mass outbreaks as well as Pokemon that you haven't seen previously in mass outbreaks. So they're gonna be different depending on the location that you go to in the Hissui region but you are gonna have access to a bunch of things that we didn't have previously. This includes the starter Pokemon that are now gonna be available to be hunted in the mass mass outbreaks where you can get them as shiny Pokemon. You're gonna have the opportunity to get unknown and spirit tomb as well. So it makes getting these Pokemon in their shiny forms a whole lot easier. Now getting over to the first thing we want to cover is obviously the normal outbreaks that we have in the game. So if you come over to the gate at Jubilee village you're gonna come into the map and you're gonna be now presented with a brand new symbol which is this kind of question mark. This indicates that there will be a massive mass outbreak in an area. You're still gonna have the normal mass outbreaks. So here we see you've got a tediosa and a silcune there. So if we go to the Coronet Highlands here I'm just gonna show you this as an example because the method of shiny chain hunting the mass outbreaks is no longer a thing. So what you'd normally do is come into a mass outbreak. You'd normally drop a save at camp when you're here and then you'd go and check the outbreak. Now if there's no shinies in this outbreak what you'd do is reset your game and you come back to this exact point and from here you would just talk to the professor and you would head back to Jubilee village. In the hopes of the majority of the time you're gonna have the same outbreak appear in the same area. So normally we'd come back to the Jubilee village we'd go back into the map and tediosa would still be in the Coronet Highlands. But fortunately it looks as though from the kind of early data that we've got that this is being patched out now so you're not going to be able to chain pokemon anymore like we had been doing. So you're gonna almost get like a one shot at the mass outbreaks rather than having the opportunity to kind of advance the seed if a shiny pokemon's not in that first batch come back to Jubilee. Check it again go back in save again and then go and check it again to see if the shinies in that second batch if not reset and kind of rinse and repeat that's not a method anymore unfortunately in this newest update. So if you're on the update prior to this 1.1.0 then you're still going to have access to this method but if you have updated your games got access to the new DLC content and massive mass outbreaks you're no longer going to be able to kind of chain farm the the mass outbreaks. As you can see we'll do it one more time just to show you so we would just come back to the village and then normally we'd go back into the map like I say and the teleosa would be there nine times out of ten it would be there but you can see not there again we've just got different we've got a hepinia over here and we've got a massive mass outbreak up in the top so that's what we've got there just to make you aware that the mass outbreaks have changed but getting on to the shiny odds of the mass outbreak and the massive mass outbreak Anubis put this tweet out yesterday in regards to the kind of the data mining that we've got for the massive mass outbreak so you can see here you've got all the details going forward so not really anything has changed you've got the same odds for the mass outbreaks you're going to have the best shiny chances with those you've got the same kind of base rates and kind of boosted chances with the perfect decks level 10 and the shiny charm but now we've got information about the massive mass outbreak so you can see down here a massive mass outbreak opposed to a mass outbreak it only gives you 13 rolls so you don't get that 26 rolls that you would with a mass outbreak the massive mass outbreaks minimum amount of shiny rolls is going to be 13 so the base rate is going to be about 1 in 315 if you kind of combine that with pokedex level 10 entry the massive mass outbreak gets an additional roll so it would give you the odds of 1 in 293 then if you kind of combine that with the perfect x entry you're going to get 16 rolls giving you a 1 in 256 chance and then if you come down to the which is going to be the majority of you with a pokedex entry level of 10 and the shiny charm the massive mass outbreak at that point gives you 17 rolls so you've got about a 1 in 241 chance of any of those pokemon in that massive mass outbreak being a shiny and then top of the tree is going to be the perfect entry the shiny charm and then the massive mass outbreak you're going to get a whopping 19 rolls and your odds the best odds you're going to get in the massive mass outbreak are going to be 1 in 216 so still not bad odds but nothing really in comparison to that mass outbreaks but because of the kind of mechanics now where we can't chain the mass outbreaks the massive mass outbreaks might be the better option for you but don't ignore mass outbreaks it's just you're not going to be able to chain them like we once were or at least we aren't at the moment as of what we know right okay they are the shiny odds just so you know and if we head into game what you want to do when you're in the game to kind of identify whether there is a massive mass outbreak or not is like you do with the mass outbreaks come to the gate at jubilee village and then you're going to be able to have a look at the map and the massive mass outbreaks or the question mark icons and the normal single pokemon or just your mass outbreaks like we discussed just a minute ago with the odds you know what your odds are going to be going into the different ones now at this point what i have been doing because now we know that mass outbreaks can't be chained and certainly massive mass outbreaks can't be chained so once you go into an area and come back out it's always going to despawn what was in that area initially so on that basis what i've been doing and from my testing it seemed to work out is save a jubilee village now because i did an outbreak earlier on and this was a little bit of testing i went to the alabaster ice lands and there was a massive mass outbreak there there was a reolo outbreak in this area and i went to it i caught all of the reolo there there was one lucario in this particular outbreak and it ended then i came back to camp i took a note of all the natures the levels the stats of all of the pokemon i just caught jotted them down and then reset my game came back to juba life and then went back into the alabaster ice lands and went back to the same uh reolo outbreak caught all the pokemon again and then came back and checked all the pokemon off against each other and the outbreaks were identical i exactly the same amount of pokemon exactly the same pokemon everything was exactly the same so this leads me to think and i did this a number of times i did a licky licky outbreak and then went and caught the reolo outbreak again and then checked them again and every time they were exactly the same pokemon so it doesn't look like seeds are being knocked or advanced when you catch another outbreak before a different one it seems like the pokemon are always going to be the same no matter what you do which leads me to think that as soon as you open the map all the pokemon are generated already on that massive mass outbreak meaning that you can then save your game where you are in juba life village go into the massive mass outbreak and then take advantage of it and not have to worry about timing and running out and things like that so what i explained by timing and things like that so if we go into what have we got here okay we got cold crimson mele lands is a good one because we've got the start of pokemon like cyndaquil we've got spirit tomb unknown a lot of pokemon that you weren't able to get from outbreaks available in this area now so as soon as we come in you can open the map and you can see that it's populated with all of these different question marks here now to get rid of the question marks you want to find my she's going to be in every single camp area and you want to just speak to her you want to give the munchlax five aguav berries now once you get the munchlax the aguav berries you're going to notice on your map all the pokemon are now populated so you've got unknown here you've got quillava cyndaquil another cyndaquil so you've got a really nice mix of pokemon here so a pokemon that you wouldn't generally find in this area as well as pokemon you would find in this area the other things to note are the different symbols so you can see here there's a little berry above this unknown any pokemon that have this berry kind of hopping around means any pokemon in that mass outbreak that are caught or defeated will award one aguav berry each time that happens so it's a really good way to just visit that one and get back at least the five aguav berries you've given the munchlax to see these pokemon and it also means that you can kind of stock up on them while you're out doing massive mass outbreaks the other different symbol that you're going to see is as you can see here on the cyndaquil you've got this kind of glowing circle with star next to it now this will indicate that it probably guarantees you once this outbreak here the cyndaquil one is being cleared out you're going to spawn another one straight after it in the same area but it's going to be likely be like alphas or evolutions of cyndaquil or whatever pokemon that this kind of is represented of so in this situation we clear out the cyndaquils here and we likely see typhlosions or quillavas or the b alpha pokemon spawned straight after that now this doesn't mean to say that the other outbreaks here don't have a chance of spawning a second one as well i think this probably would indicate that it guarantees it but i did have a situation in the cobalt coastlands where i did a volpics outbreak and although it's only one situation i would imagine it probably rings true with most of the outbreaks in each of the mass outbreaks where they do have a small chance to spawn a new kind of outbreak once they've happened so that didn't have a star or any glowing circle around it but when i cleared out the volpics it continued on and then spawned a new outbreak with just nine tails so there is a small chance and i don't know because it's such early days with the massive outbreaks what chances they are now there are two ways to approach going about the massive mass outbreaks now there is the quick way where you can just do a flyby of all the pokemon in the area you can literally just go from patchirisu to bonzly to scurupi over to anon and then down to bonzly and then the carnivine etc etc etc just do a flyby check the first four pokemon in each of those outbreaks and see if they're shiny or not and then if they're not just move on to the next one and then kind of continue until you get all the way around the map now this is kind of indicative because from all of the massive mass outbreaks that i've done i kind of figured it worked out the same across the board it appears as though they last for about eight minutes now if you've got your map open or if you are in a battle or if you are talking to an npc or in a battle with an npc like one of the misfortune trio the timer seems to stop when you're doing any of those things and then continue when you come out of it so but roughly speaking every single mass outbreak massive mass outbreak they've done it looks as though they run for about eight minutes so that would give you enough time to do a flyby of the entire area check the pokemon and see if there are any shinies in the first four but there is another thing to mention i think because we are saving a jubilee village and we know that the lucario that spawned from our initial findings were always the same it means that we don't need to worry about the timer we can then come into game and rather than just do the flybys and potentially miss pokemon we can go into say the swineb outbreak here clear it out clear it out don't worry about the timer clear it out if there's no shiny move on patrice you clear it out then do the same with the bondsley and then if you get to scurupy it's probably going to be time for the outbreak to finish now at that point you've missed all of these other pokemon in this massive outbreak but you can just reset your game go back to jubilee village and then come back into this massive mass outbreak and then ignore the pokemon that you've already cleared out knowing that there's no shinies in there and then start with unknown and then move down to connevine move down to gullava and then to the syndical and then kind of just rinse and repeat that until you've done all of the pokemon in the entire area and then you'll be able to know undoubtedly that you've got all of this out checked that you've got you know that there's no shinies there and the other thing is if there's no shinies there then you can just reset go back to juba life and you haven't wasted any resources one of the things about the massive mass outbreaks is they are super resource heavy you're going to use a lot of ultra balls jet balls your sticky globs and so on so it means that your resources are getting really depleted and especially if you're not getting a shiny or anything like that it's not really worth it unless you're after a particular alpha or a different pokemon that has spawned in so there are the different ways to do it like i say you can just take your time with it you can go back and forwards obviously catching the pokemon if you're catching them is four rather than catching them individually or defeating them is four rather than catching them or defeating them individually then it is going to generate different spawns in the different outbreaks like it did with the mass outbreaks so depending on how you approach the outbreaks it will generate different pokemon but if you're going to keep to a concise kind of way about doing it and just catch everything or defeat everything one by one then you know you're going deeper into the each outbreak and you're checking thoroughly that there's either shinies there or there's not shinies there if you get what i mean so that's a way to do it we are going to check our qualavas here because i am definitely after the shinies start as i already got an oshawa when i was in the alabaster ice lands earlier on today doing a bit of testing with this so it was very fortunate flew by and it was in one of the first four pokemon that appeared so i was very lucky to get that and i'm hoping i can get that kind of the set as well so rallet and syndical on next so we'll check the syndical now and then we can check the qualva and i think there's a second syndical but we'll come to this one first because it looks like it's got a chance of going again once we clear this initial one out so if we'll just listen out as we come over oh we got a shiny no way it's actually a shiny okay right okay so what you can do at this point you can save yourself a bit of time and this is what the fly by is a good method but also checking deeper into the dens is good see if we can nab that one and we don't need to worry about the other ones which is pretty exciting so oh we got it okay that is epic that is epic so what you can do now is just leave this one or we could continue on with it and just to show you that it they are the same every time what i'm going to do is just reset my game now because we know there is a shiny there so this is what i mean about checking the dens and clearing them out or just flying by them and if you miss any don't worry just reset your game come back into it because you're going to be able to go back in and the pokemon are always going to be the same every time you go into that set massive mass outbreak so you don't need to worry about it don't need to worry about the time or anything like that now i think we'll still find information out that will probably streamline this whole process there'll probably be information that comes out and different ways to approach a massive mass outbreak but we saw early on at the minute this is the definitely from my findings the best kind of way i've i've had success with the massive mass outbreaks checking everything and then you know not wasting too many resources so we'll come back in again you can see you know if you take a screen cap as well of the map when you first come into it when you've activated the five of gravberries then you don't need to bother doing it the second time when you come in so you could potentially just come over here speak to this to my give the munchlax the five berries and then when you've got the map here just take a screenshot of it like and then just refer back to that rather than doing anything else but you can see we've got exactly the same pokemon again as we did the last time so what we want to do on a map is just mark this syndical and we want to make our way down over to this area okay we're getting very close now and we need to listen out as we'll swoop down in just a second and we should be on top of the outbreak right now oh not quite and there we go there it is it is a shiny still so there you can see it is shiny again it hasn't changed it's exactly the same as it was and kind of proving that I think everything is spawned as you as it is stamped on the map as you open that map in juba life village so there you can see that the we got the shiny again and we don't really necessarily need to worry about clearing it out although we can do and we can just make our way around the rest of them but like I say this is how this this saves you having to rush through and just look at the four four pokemon you can then go deeper and deeper and deeper into the outbreaks to see about making sure that there's no shinies that you're missing by clearing everything out and just resetting your game and kind of coming back to it so um this is one way to do it and I hope this is helpful for you like we're gonna find more information out as we go through um you know doing more of these but actually there was the um the shiny osho what as well that I had but we'll just pop you down for now because you are great my little friend and that is a nice syndical there so I just need the third one now to to kind of get the three but like this area is brilliant so you can get a bunch of different pokemon here you can get the um the syndical obviously we can go back clear that out and then go and work our way around the rest of the area before we finish up with this one and like I say if there was no shiny in this area then what you could do is just finish it up clear it all out know that there's no shiny in any of the outbreaks and then just reset your game you've got all your resources back all your eyeballs all your sticky globs everything like that you've not wasted anything and then you can just reset the massive mass outbreak and find a new one and then save and start again and you know that everything is going to be there and you can take your time with it and you're not going to lose anything so friends I hope you found this useful obviously like I say there'll be more information more data coming out in the weeks to come I'm sure about it and if we do have a more streamlined method then I will update you as soon as I can please let me know because we are at the early stages of these massive mass outbreaks if you've got your own findings it'd be great to hear about them down below in the comment section and it'll help us collate as a community and get the best method out there for you all to kind of start shiny hunting in the best possible way so thank you so much for tuning in to today's episode I hope you're having fun with the new DLC excited about gen 9 and I will see you all for another video on the channel very soon until then friends take care of yourselves and buh-bye
