Yellow, Purple, Pink

Post by CanSteam »

I am aware that certain chao data files never have specific sets of 3 colors and their shiny variants, but I have actually never seen a yellow, pink, or purple egg ONCE on this XBOX 360, even across different gamertags. Also, is it just extremely rare, or impossible to get these colors?

Might be a stupid question, but do you have enough emblems? Because I know that more stock will appear the more emblems you have. Also you could just be extremely unlucky, them never popping up randomly. xD

Well, I've seen those colors on Gamecube. You know what I've never seen in the Black Market? Shiny red and shiny blue.

How many Gamertags have you tried and does it create a new Chao Garden every time? Do you always create the Chao Garden while using Save File 1? Have you tried using Save File 2 or another Save File?

I've tried it with at least 3 before my parents got a new XBOX 360 Hard drive, and twice after.

And what do you mean by save file 1 and 2?

Not getting the result you want after only 5 tries isn't too surprising.

By File 1 and File 2 I mean how when you make a new Save File for the game, it'll be File 01 or File 02 and so on. I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes, but I have noticed that a a specific Save File can result in the same Black Market.

This problem is listed somewhere on CI. Once you load up the game for the first time and make your first CHAO save file the game chooses three eggs that are unobtainable from then on. Save file one and save file two have no difference, as they both use the same Chao save file. I'm unsure on this part so correct me if I'm wrong, but even a new or separate Chao save file does not fix this. On the PC if the game is reinstalled it may change the colors. I don't remember all three sets, but one of the three sets are chosen and then unobtainable. Pink, purple and yellow, then brown, orange and red. I don't know the last one, but it has sky blue in it. A monotone red and shiny red apply as the same thing. Since you play on XBOX, unless you find a cheat for it the colors are unobtainable.

You're referring to the Black Market Guide thread, since I don't remember us adding that to the site yet, but from the original post on this thread, CanSteam was already aware of the Black Market limiting your number of Chao, and was specifically looking for advice on why the Black Market wasn't changing no matter how many times the game was reset.

And the issue comes down to the creation of the Chao Save File, as opposed to the Game Save File, but I have always felt that each Game Save File can only result in one specific result with the Black Market, so creating a new Chao Save File with an existing Game Save File will not result in a new set of eggs available at the Black Market.

It might be possible, that the Xbox version has the same RNG problem as the Steam Version.

In case you don't know about the RNG problem, it affects the Black Market, the Chao you start out with, the Chao you're going to get, the Chao Races, and tripping in the Chao Races. All of this will always be predetermined, and the only way you can alter it slightly is having a different character, or having a certain amount of Run, but it's STILL predetermined.
