No matter how many times I gen and regen, I can never seem to get A Joyous Wilds on an ocean. Ideally, it would have a fair amount of beasts, metals, and some flux, but the important thing is really a Joyous Wilds coast. Thanks in advance.

A few assorted tips:

Raise the 'good square count in large subregions' as high as it will go before rejections. Most large regions are ocean, and vice versa.
Raise the 'good square count' for small and medium subregions too. Was it JW land or JW water you were after?
Gen an island world.
Raise the minimum savagery and weight it towards higher values, again as high as it will go before rejections happen.
Increase the number of civs allowed. It depends on the exact parameters, but I find that worlds geared towards as many shots as possible at that one perfect site get a lot of civ dieout. Alternatively, either cut worldgen off as early as possible or go through Legends to find a cutoff point for the next regen of that seed. I sometimes do this to embark in the year my civ is supposed to die out.

Thanks. Though I ended up not finding a Joyous wilds with both land and ocean Joyous, I was able to find another favorable location

You do realize that in picking a good biome, you are picking a fight with the unicorn, the deadliest creature known to dwarves?

The one instance I embarked in a joyous environment, my hunters bagged unicorns single handedly. They were skilled marksmen though, maybe that's why. Still, from reading the wiki I assumed they were as dangerous as giant cave spiders or something.

There's a big difference between the two. Unicorns are lethal because their horns basically function as spears.

A giant cave spider is scary because they paralyze their prey and then kill them. Take that away and they wouldn't be nearly as bad.
