Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu, the hunt for the Shiny Magikarp

Aspiring Pokémon Masters new to the saga - or more nostalgic - have been able to venture into a new declination of the Kanto Region thanks to the release of Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon Let's Go, Eevee! by Game Freak.

By creating a remake that shapes the settings of Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue from scratch, the Japanese software house had also introduced some gameplay dynamics characteristic of Pokémon GO. Among the Trainers conquered by the new formula there is certainly an active user on Reddit as "GimmeDatGrimoire". On the pages of the well-known forum, the player has in fact shared the story of his peculiar effort, aimed at virtually avenging all the adventurers mocked in-game for the choice of buying a Magikarp at an exaggerated price from a little honest seller located along the Path 4 of the Kanto Region.



After 3 years of trying, and over 300 hours of gameplay spent on Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! , the persistent user managed to get from the seller a Shiny specimen of the Magikarp cost. Golden in color, the Water Type creature will alternate a Splash with a failed attack until the fateful moment when it evolves into a powerful Gyrados Shiny, with a characteristic red color. To celebrate his success, the Coach immortalized the moment with the short video that you can view directly at the bottom of this news.



For all the latest news on the world of creatures Game Freak, on the pages of Everyeye you will find the preview of Pokémon Shining Diamond and Shining Pearl, and a rich preview of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, a promising twist in the tradition of the saga.
