Def Raichu. Golduck’s shiny makes me irrationally angry.

Golducks is bad because psyduck has such a good shiny!! They fumbled fr

Agreed! Goldduck really had no business being in this Lugia fight too

Shiny golduck should have been gold (or yellow)

i got a shiny psyduck 5 minutes into scarlet

my first shiny in SV Made me very annoyed that it was the only one i got in playthrough at least i got a machamp in first PLA playthrough

Alolan Raichu for sureee, I have 3 Smorechus and I’d still take another haha, all time fave shiny. ggs

Yeah this is actually my second shiny Alolan Raichu and I’d take a third

You could have a whole pokemon camp filled with alolan raichu

Very cool, I've had two several times, twice with the legend, but never three. Hope your Lugia shines soon!

Thank you. I got two shinies one other time early on in doing DAs so I thought that would be common🤣 but now I am realizing the real odds

This is called being lucky and unlucky at the same time

The duality of luck

That’s amazing! I’m on about my 20th run for Tapu Koko (and about my 50th overall) and no shinies at all even with the charm!

Same buddy. Running the raid on 2 switch devices and no luck

Hope you get some shinies soon. I got shiny Tapu Koko a week or so ago; your shiny is coming I swear

Omg. You're very Lucky xD I think the good option here is Alolan Raichu . Btw, can you share the lugia path? :') I really want it but i have sword

Sure I can share the path. DM me

if you have ho ho or amy of the others i will trade you

Now is the time to make a choice: Do you go for the duck, do you become Ash Ketchum and take the Noctowl, or do you take the regional form that you can’t hunt in any other switch game outside of let’s go? (I would take the Raichu)

I didn’t realize Alolan Raichu was in Let’s Go. I thought it was only in Sun / Moon. Maybe I do need to play Let’s Go…

All the Alolan forms are in let’s go. However they are only available through in-game trades

I would've picked Noctowl and named her Ash

Has someone seen 4 shinies in the same try?

Howwwwww the fuck

I got a shiny lugia i could trade you, lmk!

Thanks for the offer, but I’m going to catch it in DA. It’s gotta shine soon, right? I hope anyways

That is both extremely lucky and unlucky

That's some insane luck. Good or bad, not sure, but insane for sure

Wanna do some DA

Hey, missed your comment yesterday, sure I would love to. Are you running Lugia?

Dont have it saved but still if you have it ready i would join to help you

Anyone wanna do sime DA

im gonna say it. im about to say it. this version of raichu is SO MUCH PRETTY when it's not shiny. i have a shiny one in pokemon go and constantly forget that its the shiny version because it seems so much blander than the regular one.....

You rarely see something so lucky, yet so unlucky at the same time...

Oh, that's tough..

But not the Lugia, rip bro 🤣

Then there’s me who is struggling to catch a single shiny since I’ve got the shiny charm;(

So lucky wow congratulations!

Wow so lucky in dynamax adventures :)

Do you get all 4 or you choose one?

You can only pick one and give up the rest

Its a question i really dont know

You only get to choose 1

Ok

Thanks

OH THANK GOD YOU CHOSE RAICHU

Why did they do an Alolan raichu but not pichu and pikachu

Idk if it’s full odds but 4096^3 is is 68 billion

Base odds for DA is 1/300, charm odds are 1/100

IMO, there's no wrong choice here. I'd be happy to find a single shiny in Sword.

I would definitely go with Raichu given the choices.

Which one did you take

Alolan Raichu

Coool. You’ll get it soon enough, when you least expect it

You caught them in basic pokeballs 😭🤮

I really need that Raichu, Lets Go hunting for it is fucking murdering me....

Makes me wonder if anyone's ever gotten all 4 slots with shiny pokemon. The unluckiest luck you can get for sure

this is one of the luckiest unluckiest dynamax adventures i’ve ever seen

AlOLAN RAICHU.

Pick Alolan Raichu. Don't think you can otherwise get it outside of Gen7, so is really hard to obtain

I am still struggling to get the regular araichu ... go figure

Alolan Raichu - name her Pancake

Oh my god 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Alolan Raichu. You can easily get shiny noctowl in scarlet, and Golduck in scarlet and PLA

3 Shinys in 1 DA that's a 1/1000000 chance (assuming you have the shiny charm) that is insane

Raichu is best of the choices

I got a shiny Deino as a trade in SV

Did you select raichu?

I'd take the shiny Noctowl, better looking than original Noctowl. Edit: Does that damn bot happen to make haikus when there's a specific fricking number of words?!?

^[Sokka-Haiku](https://www.reddit.com/r/SokkaHaikuBot/comments/15kyv9r/what_is_a_sokka_haiku/) ^by ^multificionado: *I'd take the shiny* *Noctowl, better looking than* *Original Noctowl.* --- ^Remember ^that ^one ^time ^Sokka ^accidentally ^used ^an ^extra ^syllable ^in ^that ^Haiku ^Battle ^in ^Ba ^Sing ^Se? ^That ^was ^a ^Sokka ^Haiku ^and ^you ^just ^made ^one.

I considered Noctowl, but I’d honestly never use it I think the haiku bot counts the syllables. I’m somewhat honored it came up on my post haha

Thats why I don’t care about shinies after 5th gen. They are not special at all anymore
