  • above Oreburgh...

    Shiny Machop on chain of 9... then another at 24... :D

    202 is nice too... although I got 40 Zigzagoons, and then used 104 max repels without success. i then ran out and had to leave it.

    Route 202, I found a shiny shinx on a chain of 19.

    I've chained magnemite 41 times outside Fuego IronWorks, no shiny though.

    It depends on what Pokemon I want. =p I started out with shiny Shinx, and I got to 40 once, but then I broke the chain. ;; Later in that week I tried again and got it up to 47, and got five shiny Shinx as a result. Then I wanted a blue Ponyta because I thought the blue flames looked so cool, so I chained them non-stop and eventually got four shinny ones. That was it, though; the others chains didn't work out... ^_^"

    Nowadays I don't chain, though. It takes too long and the natures aren't guaranteed to be great. I hatch shinies with the RNG instead.

    ::EDIT:: Oh, I wasn't being specific, heh-heh. Route 202 for Shinx and the place above Oreburgh for Ponyta.

  • I havent got any shinx yet, and i got 41 magnemites/ 2 shiny at fuego ironworks,

    Bring a static rather than a magnet pull, as theres aron too.

    I might try ponyta, but Rt 114 is a nice place. Massive grass patc, some nice pokemon(houndour and rhyhorn)

    most rewarding place for me is rout 228:

    I got a shiny trapinch on a chain of 3 after ten minutes of work!

    trapinch's lousy 2% appearance rate and the visibility crippling sandstorm makes my success the most insanely lucky thing that has ever happened to me chaining wise!
