"What is the true rarest thing in Pokemon?"

I think I've got it, but I'm not sure. The rarest thing is probably encountering a horde of 5 shiny Spinda with identical spot patterns with perfect IV's, same gender, a hidden ability, the same nature, and all with Pokerus, which is a 1 in 1.166516e+120 chance of happening. To see that as a full number, that's a 1 in 1,166,516,000,000,000,512,216,872,712,104,384,496,808,632,888,240,896,408,176,648,456,104,152,960,072,944,640,808,264,456,544,600,392,064,040,352,200,480,240,248 chance of happening. In words, thats a one in one novemtrigintillion, one hundred and sixty-six octotrigintillion, five hundred and sixteen septentrigintillion, five hundred and twelve tretrigintillion, two hundred and sixteen duotrigintillion, eight hundred and seventy-two untrigintillion, seven hundred and twelve trigintillion, one hundred and four novemvigintillion, three hundred and eighty-four octovigintillion, four hundred and ninety-six septenvigintillion, eight hundred and eight sexvigintillion, six hundred and thirty-two quinvigintillion, eight hundred and eighty-eight quattuorvigintillion, two hundred and forty trevigintillion, eight hundred and ninety-six duovigintillion, four hundred and eight unvigintillion, one hundred and seventy-six vigintillion, six hundred and forty-eight novemdecillion, four hundred and fifty-six octodecillion, one hundred and four septendecillion, one hundred and fifty-two sexdecillion, nine hundred and sixty quindecillion, seventy-two quattuordecillion, nine hundred and forty-four tredecillion, six hundred and forty duodecillion, eight hundred and eight undecillion, two hundred and sixty-four decillion, four hundred and fifty-six nonillion, five hundred and forty-four octillion, six hundred septillion, three hundred and ninety-two sextillion, sixty-four quintillion, forty quadrillion, three hundred and fifty-two trillion, two hundred billion, four hundred and eighty million, two hundred and forty thousand, two hundred and forty-eight chance of happening. You're more likely to win the lottery one milion billion trillion quadrillion quintillion sextillion septillion times. You're also more likely to guess what atom someone has chosen throughout all of the entire universe than this, which is a one in ten sexvigintillion, six hundred and sixty-four octodecillion, three hundred and eighty-four septendecillion, four hundred and ninety-six sexdecillion, one hundred and twelve quindecillion, one hundred and twenty quattuordecillion, nine hundred and twenty-eight tredecillion, two hundred and eighty-eight duodecillion, seven hundred and forty-four undecillion, six hundred and fifty-six decillion, two hundred and sixteen nonillion, five hundred and fifty-two octillion, six hundred and sixty-four septillion, six hundred and sixty-four sextillion, four hundred and ninety-six quintillion, three hundred and thirty-six quadrillion, two hundred and twenty-four trillion, two hundred and sixteen billion, three hundred and ninety-two million, five hundred and four thousand, four hundred and twenty-four chance of happening. In short, the Spinda thing is about 1e+120 chance, while the atom guess is about 1e+82 chance. If you know something even rarer in Pokemon, or even something rarer in real life, share in the comments, or if I made any mistakes in calculation, also say so in the comments. via /r/pokemon http://ift.tt/2j378dB
