Summary

  • A Pokemon Brilliant Diamond player catches a shiny Arceus after a challenging hunt, as shared on Reddit.
  • The player noted that they only endured two days of soft resets while hunting for the shiny Arceus.
  • The next main game in the Pokemon series, Pokemon Legends: Z-A, is not likely for a Switch 2 launch.

A player of the game Pokemon Brilliant Diamond has amazed the community by accomplishing a remarkable task: finding a shimmering Arceus during a testing hunt. This game and its counterpart Shining Pearl were launched together in 2021, serving as remakes of the Nintendo DS titles from 2006. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond was unveiled during the IP’s 25th anniversary event, offering an eighth-generation collection of creatures within the Sinnoh region, modeled after Japan’s Hokkaido island.

After the release of “Scarlet and Violet” in 2022, the next major game in the “Pokemon” video series will be “Pokemon Legends: Z-A”. This is the second game in the “Legends” series, following “Pokemon Legend: Arceus” from 2022. With all the recent excitement around Nintendo, new rumors are circulating that “Pokemon Legends: Z-A” will not be available on the Switch 2, contrary to earlier speculations that it could launch alongside the successor console. Given that “Z-A” is expected to hit shelves in 2025, it seems too early for the Switch 2 to make its debut at the same time.

On Reddit, Financial_Panic_4265 shared two pictures from the game ‘Pokemon’ on the subreddit, displaying a happy trainer surrounded by two Arceus during sunset. One of the Legendary Pokemon was a rare shiny version. While it’s easy for trainers to catch the regular Arceus in ‘Pokemon Brilliant Diamond’ once they have the Azure Flute, finding a shiny variant proved challenging for this player. After considering quitting, they employed the “blinking method,” which involves turning down the screen brightness and using a pattern of blinks to spot shiny Pokemon. Their persistence eventually paid off.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Player Finally Catches Shiny Arceus

In the Reddit community, discussions centered around the potential fate of the Pokemon universe following the simultaneous appearance of two Arceus, as opposed to this, other fans were in awe of the game’s design and artistic aesthetics. Fortunately, one gamer experienced just two days of soft resets during their quest for a shiny Arceus, unlike another Pokemon player who spent a decade trying to catch a shiny Shaymin.

New leaks hint at the upcoming release of the next set of pocket monsters, suggesting that Generation 10 Pokemon could potentially appear on both the Switch 2 and its earlier version. Fortunately, since the Switch 2 is backward compatible, trainers will be able to enjoy playing Switch 1 Pokemon games on the latest hardware. Moreover, fans are encouraged to keep February 27, 2025, noted in their calendars as crucial information about future Pokemon games might be unveiled during the Pokemon Presents event.
