CONGRATS!
My roommate has been shiny hunting VC Crystal Celebi off and on for about 3 years. Like 4 ish months ago I made a save on my 3DS and started doing soft resets. My app isn’t letting me upload the picture as proof at this time but we recently found it on my 3DS. We were watching TV and I wondered what it sounded like so I watched a video of someone finding a celebi. About 5 minutes later I actually got it and my roommate looked over like “wait did you watch the video again?” and then realized.
We don’t have official numbers on odds, but our estimate was that they had at least a couple thousand resets. I probably did a thousand or so on my machine. We guess we’re under odds by a good margin. Still insane to me. I sort of had to go sit down. I’d had a few 1/4096 odds in Violet while doing other hunts but never a 1/8192 in an older gen game. Might be the rarest shiny I’ll ever get.
Insane luck!
