I'm going shiny hunting. I tried last night and got a chain of 11 starlys. I'm trying again today. :D

Spoiler:
This is how I chain my shinies. It's time-consuming, but it all but guarantees a good patch every time. Find a big patch of grass, go to the second/third-to-last row (BLUE box), and charge the Pokeradar there. Once you set it off, ONLY take the patch if it is in the second-to-last row on the opposite side (RED box). Make sure that you have to take four steps to get to it, otherwise it's no good. It works left-to-right too.
I hope that's not too confusing. xP Also, some people say not to chain with fast-shaking patches, but sometimes I find those easier to see.

I just asked my friend about this after getting at max 10 chained before it breaks. I hope this helps.
Ther'e a square thing in there that shold help you a lot.
Hi,
I recently traded a shiny budew for a shiny bidoof.
The problem is when i go onto the summary of the bidoof, the pokemon number is in red. Everything else looks legit. Anyone now why it's red??
This means it was caught by a female trainer. Male trainers have it in blue.
