The exploit, which is also termed as "Swap Breeding" Method, in "Pokemon Sun and Moon" indicates that Pokemon trainers could breed a Shiny Pokemon using the "Masuda Method". However, they can also reset and swap Pokemon if they have the required amount of eggs. "Swap Breeding" allow the players to breed a Ditto and a Magikarp which will come out as a Shiny Magikarp.

The "Swap Breeding" method requires various things which include Destiny Knot, an Everstone, Magikarp, and a Ditto from another country. If the trainers have the following requirements, the Ditto, and the Magikarp will be placed in the nursery. However, the Destiny Knot should be equipped in the Ditto to produce the desired Shiny Pokemon while the Everstone should be placed to the Pokemon you want to breed.

However, before starting the "Swap Breed Method", the player must not forget to save the game. Though the players could reset the game, it was indicated that removing the Destiny Knot from the Ditto should be avoided since it "will reset the chain".
