[Pokémon] ~>{*Shiny Hunters Club}<~

[Lava Landon]

may I join? I'm searching for a shiny charmender in my 'spare' game currently

i think he means that they're kinda pixilated? is that about right MM? hmm... dithering... desire for trainer sprites... seems like we should all agree on what our identification should look like before we decide that it's official for the club (sorry demoonica). or maybe we should determine if we want to have identification. i think it's a cool idea, but that's just me. maybe if some other people posted ideas we could come up with something that we all agree on. i'm fairly easygoing, but i also like to fiddle around with paint, so i guess i'll submit one as soon as i get my homework done...

Fine by me, I'll still make them for anyone who wants one then. As for the pixilation, there's only so much anyone can do with paint and paint is all I have to work with. There are so many people making cards, maybe I should just forget about it all together... *looks down* Thank you for hooraying me though...

"Dithering" means the little patterns of dots used to 'blend' and make what tries to look like one colour out of two or more. The Pok?mon sprites in rsgh5's card are dithered quite heavily.

They are the same sprites that he was useing before, I guess paint messed with them or the background makes it more noticeable.

can i join? so far i have tons of shinies
:bandit: :bandit: :bandit: :bandit:

 

[ryan]

alright, tell us what you have now, so we can avoid conflict later (you spelled weird incorrectly in your title, just fyi)

 

[HariyamaGuy]

Where can I get a shiny hunters card?

 

[SkinnyGreenMan]

Sorry I haven't been around in a while, I've had lots of computer problems lately. I've just read through the pages that i missed, so welcome all new members. I'll update the dex with our new shinies.

And, uhh, I'm not sure what to do about that list posted by pkmaster, due to the confusion of everyone. Should I remove the shinies already added by her? Should i add all the 180 shinies on the list? Or, should I leave it as it is?

 

[ryan]

don't add her shinies. we'll accept that she's confused or a liar. in either case, the shinies she's captured don't belong on the list, which means that you should also remove any you put on before, like her aerodactyl or feebas.

 

[Lord Jaws]

And then you can hurry the fudge up and get an Aero yourself right? ;)

 

[Shuko]

Oh wow! I had no idea this thread was what it really was! (Did that even make sense? 0_o) Err... anyway, I wanna join! I have a few shinies!

Lessee here... I have... *counts on fingers* three shinies in my possession right now. And I've lost two to game restarts. :( The three I have right now, I call the "Golden Trio," because for some strange reason, they're all yellow (or at least their base evolutions were. One of them is kinda orange and brown now (Exeggcutor), if I remember correctly, lol. He's in my Sapphire cartridge now, and I haven't looked at 'im in a while.). Anyway, sorry to get off track. I have an Altaria, an Exeggcutor, and a Fearow, all shiny. :D I'm so proud of 'em!

Unfortunately, though, I've lost two to game restarts. The first one was a tentacool. And although he was really hard to fight with (I rarely kept him from fainting, lol) I miss him just the same. I restarted the game without thinking.

The second one was the most grievous loss. I let my little cousin play my game without realizing that she might restart it. And lo and behold, that's just what she did. And do you know what shiny she got rid of for me? My favorite... man, it hurts just to say it. My beautiful... blue... Ralts!!! *Wails aloud* Aaargh! I'm still in mourning for him!

*Sniff* Anyway, I'd like a shiny hunter card, Miss LDD, if it's not too much trouble. And I only want my Golden Trio on it. If the Tentacool and the... the... Ralts *Waah* were on there, they'd just remind me of what I'll never have again. ;_;

Congratulations to everyone else who's caught shinies! You guys rock! XD

 

[Lady Demoonica Darkmoon]

I'd like a shiny hunter card, Miss LDD.

Sure, if you would so kindly pick it up on the Shiny Hunter Club Card Requests. Also anyone else who wants one, please use that thread.

EDIT: Oh and rsgh5 I felt bad that the pokemon looked bad on your card so I used different sprites and updated it, not much better, but at least i hope it's a noticeable difference.

EDIT 2: One of my friends caught her first shiny, a Cubone! Thought I'd brag for her because she's not on PC.

I already posted this in the shiny thread in the Ru/Sa forum, but it occurred to me, that the Shiny Hunters could probably be more qualified to answer my question. ^_^; Okay, here's the sitch: I'm restarting my game in Ruby, and I wanna try to get a shiny starter. I'm really determined this time (I only gave up after three hours last time, lol), so I don't wanna hear how ridiculously stupid it is, and how N00b1$h I'm being. :P I just have a question, and it's a doozie. This is for any of you who've had the fortune to get a shiny starter in Ruby or Sapphire:

When you put the cursor on the Pokemon, did it have a different color in the preview pic? Or was it just a preset image, and gave no indication of your pokemon's er... shininess? If any of you have caught a shiny starter, please try to remember... I'm curious to know if I'll be able to tell before I actually engage that stupid Poochyena in battle, lol.

I haven't caught a shiny starter, but I'm pretty sure the preview doesn't show it as shiny, considering its stats are determined only once you commit to it. ("SO-AND-SO received a STARTER!")

Breeding for shinies in G/S/C doesn't involve cheating, so I'd say it's legit.

 

[Forgotten_hope]

Man, that is so lame. :( Dude, you're giving the Shiny Hunters a bad name, you know? I mean, not only is this (grammatically atrocious) post nothing more than a pathetic cry for help, it's all total baloney. Now, I don't go around flaming people, but it really cheeses me when people blatantly lie for attention. I mean, honestly. 400 shinies? Yeah right. The only way you could get that many is if either a) your game was glitchy, or b) you sharked or AR'ed 'em in. And neither one counts, ya know?

And you say you've been searching for shinies for 8 years, huh? Well, I've got news for you, my friend. Pokemon Gold and Silver didn't come out here in the states until March of 2000, and they didn't come out in Japan until November 21, 1999. So there's no way you could have been searching for shinies for 8 years. :( (Shinies first appeared in the gold and silver games)

And that whole garbage about "if you don't believe me, come to my house and see" is ridiculous because of course no one knows where you live, and you'd be a nincompoop to tell anyone. So don't use that as justification either. This whole thing stinks, and if you're mad that they removed your "shiny" pokemon from the list, then you're getting mad for no good reason. Just hunt for shinies in earnest, like the rest of us, and it'll make it all that much more fun when you do actually find one. Do you understand? Having the most shinies isn't what it's all about. It's the thrill and excitement of finding something so rare that makes it all worthwhile. It wouldn't make any difference to me at all if I owned 200 shinies if I didn't catch 'em myself. Where's the fun in it?

Get your act together, okay? We're in this for the fun, not the bragging rights. Geez...
