Hi, I'm Nick. Am new here (on the fourms) and was hoping to join so here's my first post.
in the mainline games the shinies I have are:
Gyarados (in soulsilver from the lake of rage)
And Zubat (also in soulsilver, Caught via random encounters at 374 encounters, the night before my birthday as well making it feel quite special)
Am currently hunting bellsprout in soul silver (random encounters)
Hoot hoot in soul silver (random encounters)
and charmander in leaf green (soft resetting)
I also have 38 shinies in pokemon go but am only gunna update on mainline shinies here.
Welcome to the SHC, Nick! Congrats on the shiny Zubat and good luck on your hunts!
Over my last few hunts only, I started counting my encounters but I have gotten quite a few over the years, I'll try to catalog all of them here though. I am not counting gift Pokemon either.
Sapphire: Marill
In Pokemon Y: Bergmite, Absol, Boldore, Feraligatr, Murkrow.
ORAS: Zubat
In USUM: Buizel, Tyranitar (I didn't play much because Gen 7 was ass)
In Shield (This is where my shinies have popped off, my luck has been nasty): Nidoking (first encounter in Crown Tundra), Stufful. Next section are max raid battles: Lycanroc Midday, Dusclops, Mr. Mime. The rest are from hatching and the first section are approximations within 5 eggs and the second section are exacts eggs. Impidimp-74, Rotom-28, Rookidee-38, Charmander-25 and now the exact counts, Mareanie-13, Hawlucha-64, Honedge-356, Zigzagoon-105.
If I think of any more I will add them too. My current hunt is Magikarp at 360 eggs hatched using Shiny Charm and Masuda method.
Just got a shiny Dratini after 377 eggs, Unfortunately, it is only 4iv with Shed Skin so I have some work to do to make it competitively viable. Super stoked to get it though, was about 3 days of pretty consistent hatching, those pseudos... 🙄
Congrats on all those shinies! Sounds like you're going to have a dope shiny Dragonite for your competitive team, haha!
But GenVII was the best since GenIV! Probs a top-3 gen after only IV and III! :tongue-poke:
Been a while since I posted but recently completed some very fun hunts for the lunar year of the Ox and for Valentine's day.
The Oxen are Roquefort the miltank (Masuda method+ SC, slightly under odds), Colorado the Bouffalant (898 Dexnav, no SC), and Big Bos the Tauros (also Masuda+SC, some 200 eggs)
The Pink crew were caught in the FS with no SC (Rhoda the wobbuffet, Felix the espurr, Sakura the pachirisu), with SOS+SC (Tamarin the aipom, Alexandria the flaaffy, Mimosa the oricorio and Prima Donna the smoochum) and Island scan (Sun Wukong the monferno)
Also shout out to @visionsofmilotic who's been a great trading buddy for friend safari duplicates :)
Happy St Patrick's day
Dexnav and Friend Safari hunts without a shiny charm from the past 3 weeks
Named them (clockwise) Bronze, Cineta, Disco, Florian, Rathaniel, Tawali, Denisova and Mizuna
Congrats on the new shinies!! I'm absolutely loving those themes, hahaha! My fave nickname out of those ones is probs Sun Wukong for Monferno!
I'd been bouncing between a few Shiny hunts, but I decided to focus on Luxio after a thread earlier this month reminded me of just how happy Luxio makes me. Got my full-odds golden boy today (caught as Shinx)! :D
I'm not going to evolve him into Luxray. Nothing against Luxray, Luxio just makes me happier!
Updated Gen. IV team:
Congrats on the Lux! The Shinx line has probably the most striking and distinctive shinies of GenIV!
Hey, I'm back after a pretty long hiatus, and I'm currently doing a shiny-only run of Shield. :) So far I've gotten a Wooloo after roughly 1553 encounters, and now I'm hunting for Chewtle and Blipbug at the same time.
Welcome back, Em!!
Woah, a shiny-only run!? That sounds so cool!! Best of luck and huge congrats on the Wooloo!
Hullo!
It's being a while but still hunting strong, well I started again after a break. Currently hunting in SW&SH for a wooloo.
Will be posting shinies when I get them.
Glad seeing the club is still running smooth & congrats on the club award!!!
@G-Money
Congrats on the 10 years dude, what an acomplishement and look at all those shinies :O
My shinies for the last couple of weeks in SW&SH!
Hunting dewpider & cubchoo atm, wish me luck!!
& SHINY VIBES TO ALL!!!
OMG welcome back, DarkTorchic!! Congrats on 10 years to you, too!
Those are some great shinies you got, and good luck on
Dewpider and Cubchoo! ("lol" you got Dewpider while I was writing my post!! Way to go, hahahahaha! :laugh: )
*amplifies shiny vibes*
Caught a shiny female Pangoro in Shield after joining a random raid.
In Gigantamax form it's hard to tell if it's shiny but I do like the brown fur and red hands the shiny form has. It was caught in a repeat ball.
Congrats on the Gigantamax shiny!!
Today shiny Gothita showed up at 1,445 dexnav encounters. My next hunt is Elgyem. But it can have Teleport and Simple Beam :/
Congrats on the Gothia! I've been carrying around a Pokémon with Damp, one with Arena Trap, and one with Illuminate for my shiny hunts now, haha! The Illuminate lead helps get more encounters quicker, and Damp/Arena Trap are there to prevent any shiny catastrophes, "lol!" Since Elgyem's got Simple Beam, maybe you could try having two Dugtrio and swapping them out if one gets beamed?
