After an exhausting three-year journey, a dedicated Pokémon shiny hunter has finally achieved their goal of obtaining a special Feebas. The Youtuber, known as Reversal, embarked on this quest 1,383 days ago and cast their rod nearly 240,000 times before their perseverance paid off. The thrilling moment was captured during a live stream, causing a wave of excitement among viewers who had eagerly awaited this elusive encounter.
Reversal’s determination is evident in the staggering statistics displayed on their stream overlay. Throughout their 472nd stream dedicated to hunting shiny Feebas, they encountered an impressive 135 shiny Magikarps and 82 shiny Chewtles before finally encountering the desired fish.
The culmination of this arduous journey was marked by the evolution of the shiny Feebas into a shiny Milotic. Reversal enlisted the help of a friend, Oliver_MKP, for a touch-trade to trigger the evolution. However, a moment of panic ensued when the trade was interrupted, momentarily suggesting the loss of the precious Pokémon. Fortunately, this turned out to be a false alarm, and Reversal successfully obtained the coveted yellow Milotic.
The timing of this achievement couldn’t have been better, coinciding with the release of The Teal Mask DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. This new DLC would have temporarily halted Reversal’s shiny hunt, making the successful capture of the shiny Feebas even more significant.
Reversal’s dedication and unwavering pursuit of their goal serve as an inspiration to fellow Pokémon trainers and shiny hunters alike. This triumphant moment not only adds a remarkable Pokémon to their collection but also showcases the rewards that come with perseverance and determination in the world of Pokémon.
