Updated for Pokémon Sword and Shield

User reviews

Very easy and simple to use!

The SOS calling shiny odds needs to be fixed. It says 1/1365 with shiny charm and 1/4096. It should be 1/315 without shiny charm and 1/273 with shiny charm. You might want to double check all your shiny odds.

Poor at doing its actual purpose

I’ve used this app on and off for shiny hunts I’ve done and I’ve had a reoccurring issue of it not saving the progress of my hunts, it seems to be an issue of not properly saving the time and counter of the hunt so it reverts back to the last of the numbers it had saved, the best thing I can say to improve the app is to fix the issue I stated, and also change the sprite used for the pokemon depending on the generation you’re hunting in especially because if you’re expecting to see the shiny in its gen 3 form but you’re constantly looking at its 3d model you may fail it
