How to Spawn Shiny Pokemon in Cobblemon
Shiny Pokemon are rare and highly sought-after creatures in the Cobblemon universe. However, they can be challenging to find and obtain. Fortunately, there is a method that allows you to increase your chances of spawning a shiny Pokemon.
First, you need to understand the concept of "chain spawning." When you encounter a Pokemon in the wild, there is a small chance that it will be a shiny. If you then defeat or capture that Pokemon, the chance of encountering another shiny Pokemon of the same species increases. This is known as chaining. The more times you chain, the higher the chance of spawning a shiny.
To chain, simply keep encountering and defeating or capturing the same species of Pokemon. The more you chain, the higher the chance of encountering a shiny. However, the chain can be broken if you encounter a different species of Pokemon, or if you flee from the battle. So, it’s important to be patient and persistent when chaining.
Preparation for Shiny Hunting
Identify your Target Pokemon
Before setting out on your shiny hunt, it’s crucial to choose a specific Pokemon you wish to encounter in its lustrous form. Remember, shiny Pokemon are exceptionally rare, so selecting a species within a particular evolution line will increase your success rate.
Study Spawn Locations
Research your target Pokemon’s most common spawning areas. Check online databases and forums to gather information about the specific habitats where they can be found. Once you have identified suitable locations, plan your hunting route accordingly to maximize your chances of encountering a shiny.
Gather Essential Supplies
To enhance your shiny hunting efficiency, it’s recommended to stock up on certain items. Firstly, Poke Balls are indispensable for capturing Pokemon, so ensure you have an ample supply to avoid running out at a crucial moment. Repels can be beneficial for preventing unwanted encounters with non-target Pokemon, allowing you to focus your efforts on searching for your shiny quarry. Honing your patience is also vital, as shiny hunting requires persistence and determination.
Enhance Your Odds
There are several methods to increase your chances of finding a shiny Pokemon. The “Masuda Method” involves breeding Pokemon from different regions of the game world, which significantly boosts the odds of obtaining an egg that hatches into a shiny Pokemon. Alternatively, the “Chain Method” involves encountering a series of the same Pokemon in succession; after a certain number of encounters, the game’s shiny rate increases substantially.
Stay Focused and Persistent
Shiny hunting can be a time-consuming endeavor, requiring countless encounters and often hours of dedicated gameplay. Maintaining your focus and staying persistent is essential for success. Keep your eyes peeled for even the subtlest visual cues that might indicate a shiny Pokemon, and don’t give up hope; eventually, your efforts will be rewarded with the elusive shiny encounter you seek.
Luring Pokémon with Bait
Bait can be used to lure specific Pokémon to your location. To use bait, simply select it from your inventory and either throw it on the ground or use it from your hand. Pokémon that are attracted to the bait will begin appearing within a few seconds. The type of bait you use will determine what Pokémon are attracted to it. For example, Sweet Bait attracts Pokémon that like sweet things, while Sour Bait attracts Pokémon that like sour things.
Bait can be purchased from Poké Marts or found in the wild. You can also get bait as a reward for completing certain quests. Bait can be used multiple times, but it will eventually run out. When bait runs out, you can either discard it or use it to make more bait at a Poké Mart.
The table below shows the different types of bait and the Pokémon that are attracted to them.
| Bait | Pokémon Attracted |
|---|---|
| Sweet Bait | Pikachu, Eevee, Squirtle |
| Sour Bait | Bulbasaur, Charmander, Psyduck |
| Bitter Bait | Gastly, Haunter, Gengar |
