Global PokédeX Plus Forums _ GPXPlus Discussion _ First SWSH and already got my Shiny...now what?

Posted by: Kyrii Nov 15 2022, 02:17 PM

So I recently got back into this game and decided to participate in this Month's SWSH! I picked Purrloin and hatched a shiny after 44 eggs... I was ready for the long hunt but now that I've finished it so fast, I'm not sure what to do.

Can I shiny hunt the other two pokemon for SWSH for prizes? Should I just go back to my personal shiny hunts? What do you more seasoned players suggest?

Getting your first shiny means you're already getting the prize, and you don't get duplicate prizes for getting more shinies. But if you want to hunt more, you can hunt more to help contribute to your affinity's overall total (the leading affinity gets 15 extra prize points when prizes are given out at the end). Or you can go back to your normal day-to-day routine. Whatever works best for your play style and goals.

Oh, okay! Good to know! Do I have to sign up for another shiny hunt in order to help contribute to the affinity thing?

Yes, signing up for the SWSH multiple times will contribute to the affinity thing.

Congratulations on hatching a shiny Purrloin so quickly! As for what to do next, it's entirely up to you and your personal preferences.

You can certainly continue hunting for the other two Pokémon fea[removed]ured in this month's SWSH event to try and win the prizes offered, or you can switch back to your personal shiny hunts if that's what you prefer. Some players like to focus on completing their collection of shiny Pokémon, while others enjoy participating in SWSH events and trying to win prizes.
