    well some previous generation games had ways of finding shinies like chaining.
    Is this game just pure chance finding one? ive not found one thus far.

    is there a particular method for finding them besides running around the grass like a mad man ?

    (sorry if theres a thread for shiny hunting) couldnt see one

    I caught a Shiny Seviper today, with a Sassy Nature (+Sp.Def,-Speed) I think I might EV it into a wall/phazer. Can't let that beauty go to waste.

    Obvious hacker is obvious. I thought you said Servine X_X

    Right now I am playing through Black, hoping for a shiny. When I finish I will start dual SRing for Landorus. I already have 1000 down.

    Why would he be a hacker? If he is a hacker he would've gotten it a Modest nature or something.

    The only shiny that I didn't transfer from gen IV was a shiny Aipom which I recieved in a trade when I used the GTS negotiations for the first time.

    The other two (Budew and Pidgeot) were transferred from Diamond.

  • I'm hunting for my favourite Pokémon in its shiny form, Scraggy. I love its original form but who doesn't want a shiny of their favourite Pokémon :)

    Unova shiny Pokémon I have;
    Audino, Landorus.

    I still haven't found a shiny after training my team against wild Pokemon for long periods of time. I hope I find one soon!

    You got a shiny legendary, and all I find are Shiny Tailow?

    Other than that, I'd kill for a Shiny Haxorus. Thing looks like a freaking XBOX 360 Elite, the most pimpin-est looking gaming console other than the PS3 or N64.

    Noob out.

  • If you have a full team and full boxes in the PC, you can skip straight to the final battle with N without capturing Reshiram/Zekrom (who can't be shiny in N's Castle). In that case, you can get them in the Dragon Spiral Tower after getting the National Dex, and it's possible for them to be shiny that way.

    Yeah, that was proven false by Kaphotics, a RNG programmer from Smogon/Project Pokemon.

    Not really having the thought of finding a shiny anytime soon throughout the game, I was EV training my Larvesta with Litwick for Special Attack EVs, and I ended up running into this little guy.

    Now I can finally raise a shiny Chandelure which I had been planning to for some time now. :D

    Niiiiice! I would love myself a shiny Chandelure. What nature does it have? :o Just curious. :P

    While in the car I came across a shiny Deerling :)

    I'm gonna trade it for a modest Reshiram! It's pretty much my first Unova Shiny.

  • I was training in the grass to the West of Black City last night and ran into a Shiny Pupitar. Was rather pleased about that, even moreso when I found out upon her capture that she was Adamant.

    EDIT: HEre she is. Just started training her.
