  • I've encountered a shiny Fomantis, but I accidentally killed it from a critical hit.

    Thats balls :( better luck next time eh!

    I got my first shiny through WT today. It was Pom-Pom Oricorio so that's pretty nifty I guess... seems like it's legit, too.

    I actually caught my 2nd ever (encountered) shiny through the SOS method. It was an Exeggcute and is now an Exeggutor.

    I got a shiny Eevee after about 20 eggs which was really lucky. Then I got a shiny alolan grimer while EV training. I also found a shiny yungoos, but I KO'ed by accident because I wasn't paying attention lol. I don't even have a shiny charm. Finally, I got some shinies from wonder trade, but they are all very obviously hacked.

    I found a shiny Poliwag early on by chance the first time I got into the Malie Gardens, but it turned out to be a female so I traded her away, I got Lunala in exchange which I later on kept trading again for dex filling.

    I also found a shiny magby while looking for a regular one for the dex, it was male and had flame body so I kept him, he is now my official egg hatcher.

  • I've caught three so far, none of them from shiny hunting. My first was Grubbin, also from trying to get a Pichu to spawn. Second was Fearow, which I encountered by chance when trying to get a Ditto to spawn. And my third is Ditto, from trying to get high IVs.

  • I just ran across a wild shiny Cleffa on Mount Hokulani while hunting for ditto. I literally jumped out of my chair when I saw it. It's so beautiful

    If I wasn't so picky with natures I'd have one by now, but they keep using Stun Spore on me which makes my synchronize Kadabra bounce it back. And as I'm sure most of us know, SOS rates are extremely low if the target's inflicted with paralysis. Even with Taunt and etc it still slips through the cracks somehow. The dream...

  • I just decided to use the Masuda Method for the first time on a Sandygast, and I got a shiny on the 23rd egg! I named it Punalu'u off the Hawaiian black sand beach.

  • After repeated chains I haveq finally found a Shiny Fomantis. The yellow and green is instantly noticeable. She has a Hardy Nature and 4 IVs. She is now a Lurantisand will be used as my False Swiper for future chains.

  • I was looking for a Delibird to get a shiny one with the Masuda Method, and I ran into a shiny Spearow! I'm quite happy about this because I just recently lost a shiny Fearow and Machamp when my Pokemon Sapphire save file got corrupted.

  • After a chain of only 53 I caught a Shiny Male Pichu in a Fast Ball. :)

    He is now a Shiny Alolan Raichu. Alolan Raichu's Shiny Form reminds me of chocolate so he has the nickname Chocomouse.

    No shinies but I haven't really been searching for them either.

    I'm going to attempt chaining for a shiny Drampa though so wish me luck. I keep seeing people saying they got a shiny in 30-50 Pokemon so that sounds promising.
