Shiny hunting is a very popular activity in the games of the franchise and Pokémon Legends Arceus is no exception to the rule. Even if the means of obtaining chromatics seem “simpler” than in the previous opuses, in particular thanks to the Massive Appearances and the maximization of the Pokédex Pages, it is nonetheless rare to come across the precious creatures of a different color. .

In full live, when he was just looking to come across a chromatic Spiritomb, he was totally surprised to see the creature not only shiny but also baron !

But that doesn’t change the fact that Spiritomb Baron Shiny is extremely rare since you not only have to collect the 107 strange flames before you can find him for the first time, but also hope to come across him again, in the middle of the night, in Crimson Swamp.
With the Chroma Charm active (and therefore the Spiritomb level 10 page), the streamer had 0.44% chance of falling on a Spiritomb Baron Shiny. In short, a great accomplishment for the shiny hunter who obviously hastened to save when he saw it. And you, what is the shiny that gave you the most emotions in the game?
