Charm’s Guide to Duplicate Shiny Hunting Via Picnic Union Circle Duplication Method
So! You’ve heard of the picnic method of shiny hunting in SV. And I was very inspired by This video by Patthickness who discovered that if you find a shiny while with a friend in the union circle, there is a method so you can both catch it! (usually only one person can catch a pokemon in union circle). Tonight me and my bf combined the two methods and it worked! it was a little confusing to figure out so im making a crappy guide so that others can do it. Below the cut!
So! First I will go over the picnic method!
There are better guides on this so I will give a shortened version. During mass outbreaks, shiny rates will be decreased once you beat 30 pokemon, and then decreased again after you beat 60 pokemon for a 1/1365 shiny rate! What you can do is defeat 60 pokemon, look for any shinies, but if none are shiny, instead of defeating any more, Start up a picnic! This despawns and respawns all the pokemon, basically rerolling and giving you another shot at finding a shiny. you can repeat this as many times as needed until you find the shiny or until the mass outbreak disbands.
NUMBER 2: THE METHOD TO DUPLICATING SHINIES VIA UNION CIRCLE:
MAKE SURE AUTOSAVE IS OFF! It’s important to note that the host of the union circle will have their spawns favored. So, if you and a friend want to do this and are looking at a specific outbreak, the person with the outbreak on their switch needs to host the circle. For this example, I was the host and my switch has a bombirdier outbreak.
I hosted the union circle and let my boyfriend come over to hunt with me! I defeated 60 pokemon, and then we did the picnic method. Since my spawns were favored as the host, I’m sure it was just my picnics that were despawning the pokemon, but my boyfriend joined each picnic just to be sure that everything despawned correctly.
Also please note during union circle things like: Only one person can fight a pokemon, and if they run from it it will despawn for everyone. Also in this game, shinies wont make any noise when they spawn like they did in arceus, so you need to be actively paying attention and watching.
STEP 3: WHEN YOU SEE THE SHINY:
THE HOST needs to save in front of it. Like in Legends arceus, you can save over a shiny pokemon and then restart your game, and it will still be there. SO the HOST needs to save when they see it
Then, The second friend player who is NOT the host needs to encounter the pokemon! they can now catch it!
ONCE THEY CATCH THE POKEMON: They need to leave the union circle. make sure the host DOES NOT SAVE and they reset their game!
When the host reloads the game, if done correctly it should have saved over the shiny, and they should be able to catch it too!
And with that, you should have Two of the shiny! One on the host’s save, and one on the friend’s save!
This is in no way a comprehensive complete guide but I wanted to throw it together just in case someone else was researching it like I was! go have fun and good luck in ur hunts
i never completely lose interest in anything. if i have become fixated on something at one point in time, there will always be the possibility of me becoming obsessed with it again. all it takes is something to trigger my memory and BAM that thing i loved in 6th grade is the only thing i can think about.
all of my interests float around in my head and compete to be in the forefront of my mind. right now i’m thinking about puppet history, spirk, avatar the last airbender, and the country of new zealand. i am a force to be reckoned with.
I was thinking about how much I adore Marnie’s design and remembered Lillie! The Pokémon designs are cool and I made a revelation about the two girls’ designs! Enjoy a quickly made meme
probably why so many teens take to social media where they can enthusiastically share their interests and achievements and get positive feedback that their parents never gave
I remember once, when I was in my early 20s, I was an afternoon supervisor at my job, and I worked with mostly teenagers, and the one day this one kid, who was like 15, was bored so I suggested he could clean out the fridge. He did and when he was done I said he did a good job.
After that, this kid was cleaning out the fridge at least once a week, and I was like, “why are you always cleaning the fridge?” Like, I didn’t mind, but it seemed odd. And he said, “one time I cleaned the fridge and you said I did a good job. I wanted to make you proud of me again.”
Literally, I changed the entire way I interacted with teenagers after that. I actually got a package of glitter stars and I would stick them on their nametags when they did a good job, and they loved it.
My manager had commented on how hard these kids work and I said, “they’re starved for positive feedback. They go to school all day then come to work all evening and no one appreciates it because it’s expected of them, but they’re still kids. They need positive feedback from adults in their lives.”
Like, everyone likes feeling appreciated. Everyone likes being complimented and having their efforts be noticed. Another coworker (who was a mother of teenage children), hated that I did this, and said they were too old to be rewarded with stickers, but like… it wasn’t about the stickers. The stickers were just a symbol that their effort was noticed and appreciated. I was just lucky that I learned this at a time when I was still young enough to remember what it was like to be a teenager. I was only 2 years out of highschool at that point and highschool is fucking hard. People forget this as they get older, but ask anyone and almost no one would ever want to go back and do it again, but they expect kids to suck it up because they’re young so they should be able to do school full time, plus homework, and work, and maintain a healthy social life, and sleep, and spend time with family, and do chores and help out at home, and worry about college and relationships and everything else, and then just get shit on all the time and treated like they’re lazy and entitled. And then they wonder why teenagers are apathetic.
