  • I literally JUST caught a shiny Skrelp, I'd say after 26-30 chains or so :D
    Ah god I'm so happy ;u;
    Could have been a Shellder (was hoping it would not) but it ended up being a Skrelp, which made me almost scream of joy in the classroom (yeah, chain fishing in class...) xD

    Caught a Shiny Clauncher today. Im surprised at how varied the chains actually are. So far this is what i've caught and in how many tries.

    Shiny Poliwhirl-31 Chain
    Shiny Relicanth-31 Chain
    Shiny Poliwhirl-252 Chain (yes really)
    Shiny Clawizter-8 Chain (XD)
    Shiny Clauncher- 137 Chain (today)

    Ive been really trying for those shiny Dratini/Dragonair/Horsea/Seadra for currency on the GTS.

  • 2nd Shiny of the day - Shellder, after 25 chains
    3rd Shiny of the day - Skrelp, 20 Chains

    That's 3 Shiny in less than 4hours, knowing that I haven't been playing between 2pm and 5pm, started again to chain-fish at 6pm, and got the Shiny Shellder around 6:36pm, the other Shiny Skrelp around 6:53pm

    I love it~ <3

    I've caught 4 shiny pokemon through chain fishing so far, Magikarp after 47 casts, Skrelp after 21 casts, Horsea after 31 casts and Chinchou after a big 84 casts. It's the easiest way to get a shiny, but unfortunately only with water types. For any other type you might want you're stuck with the Pokeradar and/or Masuda Method to get one.

  • I don't count casts as it depresses me sometimes :) I keep track of the time spent fishing but anyway I've caught:
    Shiny Dragalge - 1 hour
    Relicanth x3 - 2 hours total
    Skrelp - 1 hour
    Luvdisc - 10 minutes (completely accidental as I was merely going for heart scales)

  • This is crazy because I have 3 shinys so far and none from masuda method or chain fishing. I got shiny venipede, tentacool, and gulpin... I've been suction cup chain fishing since almost the second week since xy came out. No luck
