Apologies, I kept forgetting to update you all on the final count of #shalphaweek! With 810 total finds, 741 of which were from Z-A, we over doubled the number of the last event!

If you notice any missing submissions on the spreadsheet here, make sure to let me know!
docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
Screenshot of a chart from a spreadsheet with two columns, the left has "Total Submissions:", "Legends Arceus Submissions:", and "Legends Z-A Submissions:" in light green, blue, and brown colored cells respectively, and the right shows 810, 69, and 741.

I wrapped up my #shalphaweek with a 10 hour stream, two big pink bunnies and 100 permutations down on the next Eevee outbreak I'll be in jail with for the next few months!

But the event isn't over! I'm accepting overtime submissions until 11:59pm EST on Sunday, so keep hunting & get those finds in!

It's the finale of #shalphaweek y'all! Will I be able to hit 10 today after my 4 finds yesterday? We'll be doing bench resets in Z-A along with some Eevee perms in PLA!

I'll be accepting overtime finds through the weekend, so keep hunting, let's see if we can hit 800!

With my one obligatory PLA find yesterday, we're headed back to Z-A to look for more Shiny alphas! Can I get my numbers up to try to be more than 1% of this #shalphaweel 's submissions?

Live now, with @flittia.bsky.social joining on call later! twitch.tv/themissl

After 256 permutations, I finally found the female shiny alpha Kricketot, my 3rd find of #shalphaweek!

Did this open the floodgates and allow me to find a ton more shalphas today to balance out the awful luck? No! Instead, I found another 15 spawn Eevee MO!

I guess I'll see you all in Eevee jail 🙃

I finally got my second shiny alpha on the board for #shalphaweek yesterday from the broken overload method: a big set of keys! Now back to Hisui we go, back to the torture of Kricketot permutations 🙃

Live now with a completely Z-A spoiler-free stream! twitch.tv/themissl

Since this Kricketot refuses to shine after 248 perms, I'm taking a break, time to try out the ZA overload method for the first time! We've also hit 400 submissions for #shalphaweek, already beating the last one! Thank you all for the support, and congrats on the finds!

The #shalphaweek bingo event had some wild finds today, including this Decidueye from Toast and a clutch Shalpha Ekans by ShinyCatherine in Lysandre Labs that netted our team (pink) the win! I pulled a Luigi by doing absolutely nothing, but it was still loads of fun, thanks to everyone that joined!

The second column, marked with all pink, is the one that won the pink team the game, and the goals in that column are "Fail A Shiny On Purpose," "Fixed Shiny Alpha," "Team-Wide Shiny of Every Type," "Soft-Reset Shiny Alpha," and "Shiny Alpha in a Sub Area"

I'M ON THE BOARD!

It took me 3 days, but I finally found a shalpha in Z-A for my own event! It's not *technically* my target, but idk about yall, I think transition could save her.

While we weren't able to get the double with Kricketot perms in PLA, there's still more time to hunt for #shalphaweek

While y'all are already nearly at 200 submissions for #shalphaweek , I've gone 1k bench resets with absolutely nothin! Am I going to have to go back to PLA today and continue my Kricketot permutations from before Z-A released just to get on the board?

My host luck must have gotten lost in the mail, since we did 600 bench resets for the golden kitty last night with nothing to show for it but a normal shiny Sableye! Can I join the 70 other submissions we've gotten so far by finding a shiny alpha today?

We are live with a new layout for Day 1 of #shalphaweek ! We're already at 24 Shiny Alphas submitted total, how quickly will we beat our last record of 400?

I'm taking it easy on day 1 and just doing some casual bench resets for Meowstic, can we get on the board today?

I wonder what it would look like shiny...

The 2nd #shalphaweek is now live! Make sure to add the met date in your posts for them to be official submissions!

I also forgot to say I'll only be accepting one shalpha Litleo & Fletchling per person, just to nerf the broken Zone 3 stairs method. Sorry!

Took the day off to relax by meeting up with @droomish.standingintheodds.com for a drink before #shalphaweek starts tomorrow!

I'll be live every day for a week starting tomorrow, I hope you all are as excited as I am! I'll be hunting in both Arceus and Z-A, we'll see how many shalphas I can find!

With the 2nd #shalphaweek coming up very soon, I wanted to write up a thread with all the info I currently know about hunting in Z-A! This is a general overview with just the important stuff, but if you're looking for more details, I highly recommend searching for other guides! 🧵 (1/5)
A graphic titled "What are the best ways to hunt for Shiny Alpha Pokémon in Legends: Z-A?" with the Shiny Alpha Week logo and Miss L's twitch link in the corner. There are four text boxes below, the first of which reads: "Just like in Legends: Arceus, the best way to hunt for shiny alphas is to utilize the 'static' or fixed alpha spawns around thge map. Unlike Legends: Arceus, however, most normal spawns have reasonable alpha rates that make hunting for shiny alphas actually feasible! Here's a breakdown of the three different spawn categories:" There are three vertical text boxes underneath, the first of which is titled "Inside The Wild Zones" and reads "While every Wild Zone has at least one fixed alpha, all other spawns can only have alphas once you've done the respective "Surveying Wild Zone" research task, after which all non-fixed spawns have between a 5 and 20% chance to be alpha." The second vertical text box is titled "Outside The Wild Zones" and says "There are many fixed alpha spawns that can be found outside of the Wild Zones, and many other spawns have the 5-20% alpha chance by default, however some spawns cannot be alpha, such as the birds on the light poles and all Eevee spawns outside of Wild Zones. Please check Serebii to see the specifics on any spawns you're interested in!" The final vertical text box is titled "Fossil Revives" and reads "Unfortunately, along with being locked to full-odds, the fossils have only a 1% rate of being alpha when you revive them, making obtaining a shiny alpha fossil incredibly diffiuclt, similar to Legends: Arceus. For those that want to tackle the 1 in 409,600 chance of getting a shiny alpha fossil, I wish you luck!"

So... I may have made a slightly irresponsible financial decision...

Live now hunting for full odds Eevee and Drampa in Z-A! This is potentially my final stream before Shiny Alpha Week 2, since I gotta lock in on video editing, so please come say hi!

We finally found the queen full odds last stream, and, after some off-stream research task grinding, I was able to finally get the Masterball to catch her in!

Join me as we finally catch her, train her up, and test her out online, as well as maybe do some Eevee hunting later! twitch.tv/themissl
