Hey, listen to this. I woke up at 5am this morning and decided to look for my secret shiny. I found it, all right, but not in the way I was expecting:

After about 2 hours the fatigue was setting in (I only had about an hour's sleep beforehand) which made me unable to concentrate on chaining. One time in particular, I forgot to use a Repel before starting. Then suddenly, in the normal 1 in 8192 chance, out it popped. I struggled a bit to catch it but I got there in the end. Here are the pics:





Yep, it was Chatot. I went for it as nobody else in the club has done so, and that lil' bird has always made me laugh. Female and Bold nature? Once again, I have found a Female shiny, that Synchronise didn't work on. This is the one chain I actually want to break.

Her IVs aren't great, but at least they're better than Croagunk's. Although I feel good about this. I've now found 2 shinies within 2 weeks in Pearl, without chaining.

I must have missed that, The Ho-Oh won't count as it is traded, but yes, you may join. :]

Congrats on the Chatot Ed, never bothered looking at it's shiny form before, it's nice.

Still training Linoone's, I'm taking comfort in the fact that once they reach Level 100 I'll never have to train them again, though I want at least four D: I may change area soon, I don't think I would be too happy with a shiny from the route I'm in at the moment.

Good luck all.

[Shiny Shuckle]

aye what pokes are atracted to static and magnet pull?

[Lil-Dill]

Congrats on Chatot.

I am now hunting Growlithe again in Emerald and Roselia in Pearl.
I seriuosly need to stock up on Max Repels... in bag: 1....

[jscalalamoboy]

Hey! A shiny hunting club, I want to join. I have a shiny Swellow on my emerald and a bunch of (cheated) shinys on my pearl. Now i have gone legit and i am searching for shiny porygon... Shiny Swellow is my only real (legit) shiny so far. I found it in the place where you get jigglypuff in ruby. (it was a taillow first if that helps...)

[knight stalker]

Static: 150% more chance of find an Electric-type pokémon
Magnet Pull: The same above, but for Steel-type pokémon

[knight stalker]

oh i almost forgot i might start to try to chain pachurisu instead of hatching eggs! =)

[shido]

I do believe I was quoted with a "lol"

so with that being said my goal still stands at being the best ( which I currently am ) and my reply to naysayers is well "lol"

have I caught any new shinnies ? a few I supose I haven't played since the last time I posted but I started again last week I think on and off . So far my hunts have been fruitful , why just yesterday I caught meh a shiny and well another today !! isn't that just amazing !!!

anywho next time I post I may post a list of everything i've gotten so far but who knows when my next post will be . things have gotten so boring and drab in the club (pretty much only on to start up some good ole convos with meh LDD ) .

so till next time addios farewell and may the force be with you .... ACTUALY screw the force spock and tuvok just gang vulcan pinched the hell out of the force while scotty beamed up whats left of it into a garbage can and the borg assimulated the darkside . oh wells , LIVE LONG AND PROSPER


ps CONGRATS LDD I have one too we are shiny twins

[Dragon Tamer Ed]

Well, today I was gonna chain Pinsir but Pidgeys have swarmed in to Route 229 and I haven't seen a Pinsir since. I'm gonna go hunt Bronzor after I get a Magnet Puller, as I'm just trying to get shinies of certain types at the moment.

Oh. Tomorrow I'm heading to Spain and won't be back for a week. Good job I have quite a few targets in mind.

[Razer302]

Congats to all the people that caught shiny's while I've been gone. I will only be on once a week for a while. Should be about 2 weeks till I'm on like i was before.
Only 7 days left till D/P is out in Europe. I can't wait to get it.
Looking around any random place while training my team on Ruby. At the minute I am in the meteor falls. Where the Bagons are. Hoping to get a shiny one.

[It's Just Fufu]

Heh, welcome back, Shido! This club is a bit quiet without you. It's nice to have you back.

Ed, if you plan on hunting for Bronzor through use of Magnet Pull and with the PokeRadar, I'll tell you right now that Magent Pull probably has no effect pass the first chain. I hope you have a nice time in Spain, but why are you going?

As for me, I've decided to narrow my hunts, if only by a little bit. I'm going to concentrate on one shiny per "region" (I suppose). So instead of hunting for both Bulbasaur and Squirtle simultaneously, I'll just stick to Bulbasaur until I'm bored (then I'll hunt for Squirtle a bit). For the Hoenn Region, I'm going for Latias (who else?), and for Sinnoh, I'm going to stick with a starter...the thing is though, I can't really which! Any suggestions? I'm leaning towards Turtwig right now, actually...I'm going to see if I can keep this going for a couple of days.

Well, today I caught my second PokeRadar Shiny: Abra.

While I continued looking for Ralts, I went to a patch of grass that sparkled (to me it looked a regular patch, as I had the sun's bright light hitting my eyes through the window), to start a chain, and boom, an Abra appeared. I immediatly switched to Wobbufet (*Wobbufet is on my team cause a Kirlia once escaped from me while I was looking for Ralts), since I know they know Teleport, so I caught it with my second Repeat Ball. Its cool cause I have a second Radar Shiny, but I am still looking for Ralts... so I broke the chain myself at two. Here are his stats:

Abra (M); Caught at Lv. 4; Met at Route 203; A little quick tempered; Likes bitter food.
Nature: Calm
HP: 16
Attack: 6
Defense: 6
Sp. Atk: 13
Sp. Def: 9
Speed: 13

Oh, and my Budew is now a Roselia!! ^ ^

[Lady Demoonica Darkmoon]

Nothing to update with. Oh Shinx baby, where you at? *looks hopeful* Nada III. *DRAT*

Shido-koi! *GLOMPS*

Hey is your Gastrodon male or female? (Mine's female.)

@ Dragon Tamer Ed AND Kratos_rage AND Shadow Chaos - Congradulations on the new shinys guys!

[Dragon Tamer Ed]

Well last night I was out till after midnight with some friends. When I got back in I just continued my Bronzor hunt. And to all you nay-sayers, I tell you now that Magnet Pull has an effect and a half on chaining. I have had chains in the 30's with very little effort, and none of my chains so far have broken below 10.

[shido]

it's male of course , now if only I could get a blue one shiny

[Dragon Tamer Ed]

Well, everyone this will be my last post here before I head out on my week-long trip to Spain, where I will hopefully get a tan and clear my skin as well as continue with my shiny hunts (which will mostly be late-night). So good luck on your hunts everyone and I'll see you when I return.

[MetalMario]

Good luck, Ed, and welcome back, Shido!

As it stands, I'm alternating my hunts on Diamond between Drifloon, Rotom, and Aerodactyl; Aerodactyl being for the Shiny Circuit at SPPF. (Sorry, Ryan! But it IS a good shiny!)

My counts are currently at 1006 Rotom, 136 Aero, and 1047 Drifloon. I don't usually spread my SRing so thin.

I'm also working on breeding a shiny Chikorita on Emerald, but not very actively at this time due to my attention being drawn to SRing on Diamond. I have yet to breed a Bold female to stick an Everstone on, and I'll need to dig up another male from my Fire Red batch of Chikos who still knows Counter and put it through the Gardevoir base so it doesn't forget it in the daycare. If I get a shiny in the meantime, it'll still be okay, because my current male breeder (QI with flawless Special Defense and near-flawless in three other stats) still knows Leech Seed and I still have a couple of Counter tutors available.

I've never yet reached what I call the "shiny breed hustle" stage for any of my breeding operations thus far, so I wonder how fast it'll go. This hustle is what I call the process of hatching eggs and releasing the hatchlings directly from your party. I can't do it yet because I need to check the stats of the hatchlings before releasing them to continue breeding up my stats to perfection.

My second breeding target, if Chiko ever works, shall be Skorupi. I'd rather find a cheap used Ruby to reset for Beldum on than fight with Emerald, breed, or chain, and I'd be able to chain Zangoose if I got one! :D

Oh, and 1057 Drifloon as of typing this post.

It doesn't take much "effort" to get high chains. You just have to be attentive to your game. As for none of your chains breaking below ten, it could be possible that you're just getting better at chaining.

In a dream I had last night, I realized just how angry I am with one of my cousin's. He took one of the Johto Starters (Totodile, to be exact), went to the Elite 4, and beat it, which saved my game, after I deliberately told him NOT to do even go further than Route 101 or save the game. Because I of that, I can only get one Johto starter through soft resetting, unless I restart one of my Emerald's over and over again. And I've decided that this is what I shall do. So I will no longer hunt for Latias on my Emerald. Instead, I'll focus on getting (SRable) shinies that I will probably have no other oppurtunity to get. This includes is almost exclusively Cyndaquil because every I can soft reset for things like Groudon and Rayquaza when I beat the file again. So, yeah, once I get shiny Cyndaquil, I clone a couple, trade them all over to Emerald1, and reset Emerald2. Then I'll complete the dex, and try to get a shiny Totodile, and finally repeat the process one last time to get Chikorita.

Or I could just breed, but I don't really think any of the Johto starters are worth breeding for.

Good luck, everyone.

I thought the same thing! But in my game even in the area the blue Gastrodon are the most common, I don't see very many. So I'm sticking to Shinx. After I get that I'd like Glameow, Skorupi, and Stunky. (for some reason the skunks have wiggled their way into being one of my favorites of the 4th gen, go figure) Of course when the Absol swarm or Eevee are in the backlot, I head there even during another hunt.

Based on my knowledge of how the Pokéradar works, Fufu is correct. Magnet Pull and related abilities shift the random Pokémon odds, but chained Pokémon are not random. The game randomly generates Linker and Breaker patches, but the contents of Linker patches are not random, so Magnet Pull does not apply.

I haven't encountered one Absol swarm in my game yet. I really want a shiny Absol, too.

1174 Drifloon.

[D'MoneyBoi]

Hey. I've been gone for a while due to school related troubles, but I've been SRing for a shiny Cranidos. Probably 500 SR [started 3 days ago] and no luck. I worked today though so I haven't done today. Good Luck all.

[shinyGeo]
