We kind of do. We each hunt for the shinies that we want, but it is a group effort to fill up the dex (youll find it on post 2).

Bumur, it looks like I have shinies that have already been inserted into the ShineyDex.
Well then. I am going to look for Shiny Swablu after i get my hands on that charmander... grrrr. Pesky little lizard.
Shiny Swablu/Altaria should update the ShineyDex; that is, whenever I get them. Boo.

You weant to the Rose Parade? I used to live in pasadena...


Can i join the club but i have a dumb question. How do we capture shinys anyway?

Shinies are just normal pokemon that are off-color. You very rarely see them, but when you do, try your best to capture it. The two worst places to see a shiny are the Battle Tower, and the Safari Zone, because they are hard (or imposible) to catch. You can find a shiny anywhere you can find pokemon.

Shinies appear randomly, the "odds" of it, are rare, numbers do not matter because it is all a matter of luck and chance. The numbers "1/8612" or w/e really say that for every 8612 pokemon, you will find one shiny. Just keep attentive to details. At the beginning of every shiny pokemon battle, including ones against other trainers, a line of stars will appear, do loop a on the pokemon, and fly off the screen in a line. The pokemon will also be slightly discolored, seperating them against other pokemon ,which is the only difference. I will edit my post with pictures of examples for differences in colors between pokemon norms and pokemon shinies. Shinies may appear anywhere that pokemon do. Including legendaries.

Obvious differences:

(Shiny)

(Normal)

(Shiny)

Not so obvious differences:

(Shiny)
sappn175.gif
(Normal)

(Shiny)

(Shiny)

Those are practically the differences of shinies though. You get a different colored pokemon and 'bragging' rights, if you have friends that like pokemon. Welcome to the Shiny Hunters Club. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Remember, there aren't stupid questions, just other people who think they are.

You may see all shiny sprites from http://upc.pkmn.co.uk/pictures/sapphire/sapphire.html . All of my pictures are from there.

Well, I wanna join the Shiny Hunters Club, but I haven't caught any shinies! :(
I am constantly looking and looking and no dice :(

Can I still join, though? Or do you have to catch a shiny to join?

Ryan, I'm questioning them myself, as I did when I posted them. The evolved Parasect for the normal has a darker shell tone while the shiny has a lighter shell tone. I also remember Paras having a darker shell tone, I'll check into it.

Beat Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, 21 hours, 85% items 91% scans, replaying on hard mode, goal: 100% scans, 100% items, under 7 hours of play time.

Edit!:
Source from a different site, here's what a paras looks like, on the site.

Edit!:
I'll post the differences of the Paras and Parasect now, according to the two sites.

There's the pictures, if you need any help on how to post the pictures, feel free to PM me. I've also included some little pictures, be sure to click on Kiro (I'm pretty sure that's his name) as you will get to see a little loop of him munchin out.
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Edit!:
I just felt like I should inform you guys, that I now have over 5 hours of Metroid music. From Metroid to Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, I have most of the songs from the game, I can't think of any I do not have. It seems like no many people post here anymore, besides Ryan, SGM, the occasional new recruits and myself. Can anyone confirm if this is true? Going to bed now, chao.
