APokemon Let’s Goplayer has met a disastrous fate when an attempt to catch a Shiny Charmander goes awry, leaving the player on a different floor of the mountain. Shiny hunting has been a key aspect of thePokemongames since Gen 2, andPokemon Let’s Gohas made it easier in some ways to acquire shinies, but not for this TikTok user.

TikTok content creator Bewearthisd recently posted a clip of theirPokemon Let’s Goadventures in which they’re wandering around one of the few mountains in the game in search of Shiny Pokemon.Pokemon Let’s Gowas released back in 2018, but with the upcoming release ofPokemon Scarlet and Violet, many players like Bewearthisd are going back to older titles to remain patient. Because of the different battling and catching mechanics ofPokemon Let’s Gocompared toPokemon Legends: Arceus, the mainline titles, or remasters likePokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl,Let’s Gomaintains a dedicated community of players as other fans adopt the latest Generation.

Bewearthisd’s TikTok clip begins with the player riding on the shoulders of a Shiny Machamp between standard versions of Geodude, Graveler, and Golbat as the player dodges a Rhyhorn walking their way. A Charmander’s call is heard as it spawns nearby in the mountain and the player hurries over to it upon noticing that it’s aShiny Pokemon. The player opens their menu screen before approaching the Shiny Charmander and just as the catching sequence should have played out, the player discovered that they made a disastrous error.

Instead of walking into the Shiny Charmander which was very close to a ladder, the Bewearthisd instead found themselves on a higher level of the mountain which will have reset the floor they came from. Because of this mistake, the Shiny Charmander isn’t guaranteed to reappear once the player returns to the lower floor of the mountain which makes the Pokemon gone to the error. According to Bewearthisd, they had spent so much timeShiny Pokemon huntingin the area, and the TikTok content creator expressed their frustration through crying emojis as a result of the devastating moment.

Although severalPokemon Let’s Gofans took to Bewearthisd’s TikTok video to express their entertainment by the movement mistake, others felt the content creator’s pain, having missed out on their own shinies. Though manyPokemon Let’s Goplayers lamented Bewearthisd’s loss of theShiny Charmander, thePokemonfan quickly secured another one and updated the community.
