  • Nothing new shiny-wise today, but I wanted to get some pics of what a shiny Mega Mawile looks like. Unfortunately the camera on my phone isn't that good. It looks like the colors are reversed, since a regular Mega Mawile has a black head and purple bottom.

    And, just to be different, it ain't evolving!

    I'm trying to find a shiny with every possible way there is, my results so far:

    Random wild encounter - Shiny Jigglypuff
    Friend Safari - Shiny Pancham
    Chain Fishing - 3 shiny Relicanth and a shiny Clawitzer
    Pokeradar - Shiny Trevenant (Took me 4 days to get)
    MM Breeding - Shiny Petilil (Now a lovely Lilligant)
    Horde battle - Shiny Murkrow

    Now Sweet Scenting for a shiny Klefki to fulfill my challenge...

    EDIT: No luck on shiny Klefki, found a Murkrow instead. I now have a shiny obtained in every possible way...

    I finished the game and reset it because I wanted to play using a different team. While resetting for a Careful natured Bulbasaur I ended up finding a shiny Timid one. So now I have a shiny starter on my team. Quite pleased.

    Just caught a shiny gulpin! It's best stats are hp and spdef, he will be quite the tank. His name is the blueblu...blob. Now I am taking a break from pokeradar and trying to get my first hoarde battle shiny, which will hopefully be klefki.

    Okay. Let's start from the scratch.
    Today i've been chaining for almost 4 hours or so. Got lucky two times already, with a shiny Smeargle and a shiny ABRAAAAAAA.(That one was so damn hard to chain. Almost had a heart attack when i throw a ball on it, since it could just teleport away from the battle. Luckily i managed to get it with a quick ball.)

    And i traded a shiny Skiddo for a shiny Pikachu. Good deal i guess?=D

  • in all of my years of playing pokemon, and i've played since blue,
    i have never once encountered a shiny in the wild
    and i have also tried for years with masuda methods and never had any luck
    and i'm /still/ trying masuda method for an espurr in this gen [800 eggs so far, haha... ha...]
    and i have been very patient. u vu

    so i don't know, i was kind of happy that they gave us a way to get some shinies.
    i caught my first ever shiny a few days ago--a shiny gyrados
    and i was so excited!!!

    so yeah while it's a little easier to find them now,
    it's nice for people like me who never got to own one before.
    besides, it's all fish pokemon. :p
    other types are much harder to find.

    that being said i've been in the friend safari for hours now
    no luck for me.

    Share all the feels there, been playing since gen 1, sooo many hours spend on games in all gens and never ecountered a shiny (even using methods). It was only the other week I was bored on my SS that I tried soft resseting a ho-oh, that became my first ever shiny XD
    Then today I was hunting dittos in the friend safari and a shiny kecleon popped up :P

  • I caught a shiny Bearctic the other day through a random encounter. Slightly disappointed at the way it looks though, there aren't many differences from the normal one. I'm currently breeding for a shiny Charmander, hatched around 800 so far.

  • I caught y first shiny ever. It was a gulpin in a hoard battle. I think it was also a critical capture. I looked away from the screen for a few seconds so I can't be sure.

  • Just caught a shiny Relicanth. I'm pretty sure the odds have changed, the amount of people finding a shiny is too high. I'm afraid the special feel about shinies will gradually disappear...

    Found a shiny Charmeleon in my friend's safari! <3 Had a decent nature and good IVs in a few spots so I actually bothered to EV train it and such. I .. never thought I would be so happy having a shiny Charizard (because I would have never gone out of my way to get one) but now that I have one it's pretty exciting.
