Hardcore nuzlock ???

I’m very new to the Pokémon scene and would like to try this hardcore nuzlock on let’s go eevee. Can any tell me the exact rules and maybe have some guidance/tips to beating it if it’s possible on this game? I played brilliant diamond as well but those are the only actual Pokémon games I played.

Am i doing something wrong while shiny hunting?

I started let's go evee on a new acc 2 days ago. I instantly knew that i want a shiny Nidoran male/Nidoking. As soon as i got to route 22, i began shiny hunting and catching Nidorans to a catch combo of 31. I didn't even complete the package quest at the beginning [did that after a while tho]. Now i have almost 16 hours of playtime and almost all of it is shiny hunting nidoran. I even entered viridian forest after a while since it's kinda a unlock for different sized pokemon so i thougt, maybe it unlocks other forms [like shinies] too. But yeah, i haven't seen a single shiny in like 15 hours of shiny hunting with a 31+ catch combo. Am i doing something wrong?

So, let's say I decided to add a Rhyhorn to my team WAY after Rock Tunnel...

I just realized this might be the ONE (or two) Pokémon game with Fairy types where they're not really useful, so I decided to swap my Clefable with a Rhydon. Thing is, my team already was around level 35, and Rhyhorn is way below that.

What could be the best method to level her up? Trainers aren't good for grinding in this game, so I guess I'll have to catch Pokémon, but the ones I've seen or heard give good amounts of EXP are a PAIN to catch (Especially because I'm terrible at it and can only do it on handheld mode, meaning I can't use double joycons to increase my chances. Specially as those high-EXP Pokémon like to move a lot, and I can't aim at anything thtat doesn't stay still in the center of the screen)

Shiny Magikarp hunt- need motivation!

Currently on around 1300 magikarp catches and no shiny... really need some motivation to keep going. I'm seriously getting bored but also don't want all those hours to go to waste. What's the longest y'all have spent on a shiny hunt in LG? I'm using a lure but no shiny charm btw, even with those odds I should have encountered a couple by now. The only shiny I've seen in this game so far is a venonat which I caught when my Karp combo was at around 700, I broke the chain then and started again.

Will farming Kangaskan give me tough candy?

I need tough candy for my Alolan Raichu, which is surprisingly growing on me, I didn’t like the design at first

I could use Kangaskan candies, I love Kangaskan. I named mine Kanga after Kanga in Winnie the Pooh 🥰

I plan to save one in Pokemon Home when I do a re-play, so it all works out

What level should I evolve my Eevee in Let’s go Pikachu?

So I’m leveling up an Eevee to evolve into Vaporeon, I decided to have a Vaporeon as my main water type since unfortunately I cannot get a Kingdra in Let’s Go Pikachu 🥲

Oh well. Vaporeon is adorable, & I can use a Zelda reference for her name. So it all works out

Idk when Eevee stops learning moves though 😕

What's the best shiny hunting method

Currently shiny hunting Nidoran male on route 22. I'm on a catch combo of 168 rn with shiny charm. I don't know whether I shld either keep increasing the catch combo, sit around and wait for the shiny to spawn, or to go in and out of the first gate to the pokemon league.

Pokémon Pikachu Filling in the rest of my team

I need suggestions on who to fill the rest of my team with! I have a full team right now but i'm open to switching out three pokemon! I want to KEEP my Pikachu, Clefairy, and Magikarp and evolve them later on but I need suggestions on which pokemon to choose to balance out the rest of the team! The other pokemon on my team right now (that i'm up for replacing with y'all's suggestions) are Sandshrew, Pidgy, and Ivysaur! If y'all could also suggest good movesets for each pokemon (including the ones i'm dead set on keeping on the team) that would be amazing! I've only just defeated Misty so I'm confident I can catch the replacements up in no time! Thank you in advance!

Shiny hunting the legendary birds and Mewtwo

I have a two questions regarding shiny hunting them as it's my first ever time soft reset hunting. Also any tips would be greatly appreciated lol

  1. Is there a way to skip the intro cinematic
  2. Is there a way to get the shiny charm or will I have to do the hunt at full odds?

Any forms to farm money early (As in, around Erika)?

HEY! It's me, the guy who HASN'T caught that darned Shiny Charmander yet (But I have seen shinies of nearly everything else the tunnel has to offer).

So, I'm... out of resources. I spent like >80 Lures and 11 Superlures trying to get a Shiny Charmander, but the thing never appeared. Thing is, buying so many lures left me with very little money, and the only method I can think of is the Slowpoke lady, which is very slow as it is daily.

No way in Heck I'm resetting the game (I saved right before I started hunting) unless the chain flat-out breaks.

I need clarification on the Mystery Gift because I can't get it

I have a poke ball plus that hasn't transferred Mew at all. Though, it's one year old just about. I've looked everywhere and haven't been able to find anything info on my problem anywhere so I'm asking here. Here are the details:
I have a poke ball, it's one year old by now or around it.
No one but me plays Pokémon Lets Go in my house but I've attempted to transfer Mew from my Poke Ball, but it says there's nothing in the mystery gift.
I've played my account and have completed the storyline. But even when I first got the poke ball, there was no sign of a Mew and I'm not getting another one since they're so expensive.
I got this poke ball off of Amazon.

Now here what I need help on, is it too late? I've seen everywhere that "you can't transfer Mew from one account to another" but the thing is, I've checked every other account but there's no Mew. I've also seen on here that someone said something along the lines of "the only ones that have Mew are the one in boxes" and I didn't get this in a box. So, can someone please explain when I cannot retrieve Mew? I just want to know why, like am I supposed to get it the first time I use it or something else?

The game tried to tempt me away.

In the process of hunting this girl, three other shiny Pokémon popped up. I ignored them to focus on the good IV shiny Pidgey. Next one is Belsprout and then ill be done with this area.
