Avid Gamer Beats the Odds In Pokemon Sword and Shield to Earn Extremely Rare Achievement

The concept of shiny pocket monsters recently took over the Pokemon community. It was first introduced back in 2017 and for 5 years the entire community has been hunting for these gorgeous alternate variants. In the gaming universe of titles like Pokemon Sword and Shield, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond, and Shinning Pearl, Shiny Pokemon carry a unique aesthetic value.

Reddit user, u/nugsymptom1 was also chasing this goal within the Sword and Shield title of the franchise. In this Nintendo Switch title, players have to farm eggs and wait for them to hatch to stand a chance at picking up a Shiny. The Reddit user took this challenge head-on and unleashed the biggest hatching spree that led to something miraculous in the end.

Pokemon Sword and Shield offered mind-boggling odds to Reddit user

Nugsy’s hunt for Shiney Pokemon saw him collecting nearly 200 eggs. And he indeed had to grind a lot for the miracle to occur. The user worked at it for long hours and, with his 177th egg hatched, he managed to dig out a Shiny Turtonator. This should have conduced his hunt, as the odds of finding them were incredibly low. Fortunately, the user didn’t need to wait for more than 10 more eggs to hatch yet another Shiny Turtonator.

Shiny Pokemon are not easy to find, and the odds associated with them make things impossible to obtain. However, this hasn’t stopped gamers from achieving impossible goals as the community continues to find elaborate methods to acquire them.

Not so long ago, Twitch streamer MitchOG also achieved a similar feat during his playthrough of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shinning Pearl. He also managed to run into two Shiny Pokemon in his quest to get them.
