I, Mence Master, am very proud to announce, that the 12,000 Soft Resets have finally payed off.
ShinyUxie
It finally shone!
A late Christmas gift!
FFFFIINNNAAAALLLLYYY!!!!
So, I gave up on Dialga. Glad I didn't use my Master Ball for a good IVed one.
:D
Congratulations. It's about time. :)
I'd probably go after the birds or Mewtwo first, since they are the absolute best ones for shinies.
Especially Moltres.
I really want G/S/C remakes, for the sake of free shiny Gyarados, shiny dogs, and shiny Lugia/Ho-oh.
I just want to play through Johto again, but the "free shiny Gyarados" is a total turnoff. Probably right when I hatch my epic shiny Magikarp, they'll announce the games..
They could make it to where you can't catch it, like the Marowak ghost... :P
the pokemon G/S/C remakes should come with the 5th generation of games...
and if it comes I'll want one :P
it whould be great to have shiny dogs :P
btw... isn't there a ho-oh in firered???
I guess everyone has forgotten about Pokemon Colosseum and how you can get them there.
Ho-oh is not in FireRed, you can only get it through the Ticket event for the GBA games or Colosseum.
SRing for a shiny dog in FR/LG would be a waste of time because they are coded to have bad stats, and even though I can't verify this, I have heard that they are set when you take your starter Pokemon. So you'd have to clear the E4 and then find the dog just to see if it's shiny, then start a new game.
Then I heard another tale about it activates once you get the National Dex or something, but it's just easier to do it on Colosseum...
It's still time consuming, but still easier, especially the fact once you see it shiny you can kill it and refind it later, as long as you save as soon as possible and not SR over it.
Speaking of SRing, I blew through the game yesterday, I got all 8 badges in 7:25 game time and at least 30 minutes of that is just lag time because during the evening I was talking to my friends and sometimes I'd set the game aside.
So today I finished the E4 in nearly record time lol, and now.... Now I can SR my special target. I hope it shines soon, that'd be great.
I also picked up another Ruby at GameStop today, they were having a sale. So if I wanted to I could SR for Groudon, etc. without cutting into the other game.
(That's not all. I also got a PIRATED copy of Pokemon FireRed. It won't even play/load, so it's going back tomorrow. Which is a shame, I was hoping to actually play a hack or something or a crappy foreign ripoff version, but no, it won't even start.)
Good luck everyone and congratulations
