IT'S FINALLY TIME! Maybe I should have thrown on my green scarf to color match better 🤔

I am live for as long as I can be playing through Legends Z-A! I completely understand if y'all are avoiding spoilers, but if you'd be willing to open a lurk tab I'd greatly appreciate it!

They may have changed the website at some point since we've gotten new trailers, I'm not sure why I can't find it now, but I do have this screenshot of the official website saying "Alpha Pokémon" from October 2nd!

For anyone interested in making content around this event, you can find a transparent version of the logo here! I wish you all very good luck with your research in Hisui and Kalos, let's find those shiny alphas! drive.google.com/file/d/1IPrO... 🧵 (7/7)

Permutations are a bit complex to explain in a Bluesky thread, so please check out www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzoX... for Sir Toasty Toes’s video guide or tiny.cc/permutationguide for my in depth guide doc! This is the best way to get shalphas of species in Legends Arceus that aren't statics. 🧵 (6/7)
A graphic titled "What Is The 'Permutation' Method?" with the Shiny Alpha Week logo and Miss L's twitch link in the corner. A text box below reads "The Permutation Method is a way of manipulating the spawns of an outbreak to get different checks on all spawns after the first four. This is the most commonly used on MMO outbreaks that have a second wave of entirely alphas, in order to maximize the odds of getting a shiny alpha. While this method is possible for every Pokémon that can spawn in MMOs (and even technically for normal outbreaks), it is recommended to learn the method on an aggressive species of Pokémon at the same time, and for aggressive Pokémon, this is as simple as multi-battling them. For passive Pokémon, however, you need to hit a number of them with berries and warp away while they are scared, which can be difficult." Below the text box are a few extra lines of text reading "Sir ToastyToes has a very well made, concise video guide for permutations at youtube.com/@SirToastyToes; For my incredibly long but in-depth Google Doc guide, visit tiny.cc/PermutationGuide"

If you have unlocked MMOs, then for a select number of static alphas in Legends Arceus, you can actually do soft-resets for them! If you want to focus on one of these mons specifically, this is the fastest way to hunt for them. SBCoop has a great video guide here! youtu.be/uUzLNMORax8?... 🧵 (5/7)
A graphic titled "How Do You Soft Reset For Shiny Alphas?" with the Shiny Alpha Week logo and Miss L's twitch link in the corner. A text box below reads "For any Pokémon spawns that get 'replaced' by a Massive Mass Outbreak, you can actually soft-reset to shiny hunt them! This is most often done on any static alphas that you want to specifically target, and only works for the following alphas. Simply find an MMO with an outbreak over the usual spawn, clear out the outbreak, save, and reset the game until you get your shiny!" Below the text box are five colored boxes labeled for each area with images of the static alphas that can be reset for there. The Obsidian Fieldlands has Luxio, Floatzel, Alakazam, Staravia, and Golbat; the Crimson Mirelands has Raichu, Ursaring, Yanmega, Lickilicky, Sliggoo, Toxicroak, and Skuntank; the Cobalt Coastlands has Chansey, Mothim, Octillery, Machoke, and Drapion; the Coronet Highlands has Electivire, Rhyperior, Gligar, Probopass, Steelix, Golem, Carnivine, Goodra, and Mothim; and the Alabaster Icelands has Gardevoir, Mamoswine, Glalie, and Garchomp

Here are the routes for the other two areas! I plan to spend my time after my playthrough of Z-A researching and documenting all the ways of hunting shiny alphas, so hopefully I can make a similar thread for you all for Z-A before this event starts! 🧵 (4/7)

There are a few ways to hunt for shiny alphas in Legends Arceus, but the simplest is to use the static alphas that spawn in each map. Here are the routes I use for checking them, found at game8.co/games/Pokemo... 🧵 (3/7)
A graphic titled "What are the best ways to hunt for Shiny Alpha Pokémon in Legends Arceus?" with the Shiny Alpha Week logo and Miss L's twitch link in the corner. There are three text boxes below, the first of which reads: "The easiest way to hunt for Shiny Alpha Pokémon is to utilize the static alphas found on each map. Simply go to the map with a static alpha you want, fly over to check it, and if it's not shiny, then reset back to Jubilife! For those who want to check every static alpha, the routes I use are included in this thread." The second says "Unfortunately, resetting to Jubilife does take quite a while each time, and gives a high likelihood of phasing. The other major downside is this method only works for species that have static alphas. There are luckily two other methods of hunting for shiny alphas in Legends Arceus, each of which solves one of these issues: soft resets and the permutation method." The final text box reads: "The most basic soft resets can be done on any Pokémon in a 'sub-area,' like Snowpoint Temple. If you save before entering, you can check the Pokémon, then reset the game." Next to the final text box, there are two images of shiny Crobat and Gallade, which have labels of "Wayward Cave (Coronet Highlands)" and "Snowpoint Temple (Alabaster Icelands)" respectively.

I will be streaming every day during the week, trying to find as many shiny alphas as I can, and I encourage you to join me! If you find a shiny alpha, you can either post it here under #shalphaweek or send it to me on discord! Finds in both Legends Arceus and Z-A are encouraged! 🧵 (2/7)
Graphic reading "What is Shiny Alpha Week?" with the Shiny Alpha Week logo as well as the link to Miss L's twitch account. Underneath are three textboxes, the first reads "As a celebration of the return of alpha Pokémon I am hosting another full week of shiny alpha hunting! Adventure into the wonderous lands of Hisui and Kalos and search for the strongest and largest shinies you can find!" The second says "I will be live on my twitch channel every single day of the week, hunting for shiny alpha Pokémon! This is a community event! If you find a shiny alpha Pokémon, let me know by posting to Bluesky with #ShalphaWeek or ping me on discord with a screenshot showing the met date, and I'll add it to the submissions!" The final text box reads "While shiny alpha hunting in PLA has been pretty thoroughly documented, I am hosting this event a month after Z-A's release so that we can find the best ways to hunt for shiny alphas there first! For more info on PLA shiny alpha hunting, check out the rest of this thread!"

Even though it's looking like I won't be able to finish the video I had planned to release before Z-A drops, I do have something else to announce tomorrow!

Live now with my last PLA stream before Z-A's release! Can we finally get the female shiny alpha Kricketot?

Found a shiny alpha Kricketot during Monday's stream, but unfortunately its collar is a bit too long, matching the one I already have. Could transition save her?

Live now permuting for a female shiny alpha Kricketot! twitch.tv/themissl

On Friday's stream we found a big W, ironic considering I was hoping for the big L for my bingo board, but I'll take it, since I had only 7 possible permutations left I could do!

Now to see if we can get a shiny alpha kricketot from the same MMO. Over double odds and live now! twitch.tv/themissl

This is starting to look like another Cyndaquil situation....

I have 14 permutations left on this Unown outbreak, which will get me to exactly triple odds. Will we find a big blue letter in those 14? Live now! twitch.tv/themissl

We are over odds for big blue letter #4, will the game reward us with the "L" for the bingo board?

I'd recommend checking out this video by SirToastyToes for a general explanation, but I do also have an in-depth written guide on my profile that details passover permutations if you're interested!

Found this the other day on stream when checking out a starred Zorua outbreak for the hell of it, but I think it's deserved when I went 800 permutations for my female shiny alpha Zorua

Hunting for some big Balloons today, thanks to @punkshineuniversty.bsky.social for being the first to redeem the "Choose my Next Shiny Alpha Hunt" channel point redeem, hopefully we can find it today!

I found a big table with a matching scarf after only 9 permutations yesterday!

Unfortunately, it's not a bingo target, so we must press ever onwards. Will we find a new bingo target today? Live now! twitch.tv/themissl
