Later on I walk into the brass tower expecting to release you-know-who. After thrashing James (Dark Azelf, my rival) with Murkrow Pursuit and Scyther U-turn spam, I start walking around to find those hidden items with that dowsing machine. As I'm happily searching, a battle begins...
Mind you, I'm driving to Barnes and Noble during all of this, in traffic & rain. (don't follow my example, drivers-in-training!) As I look down quickly, I see SHINY KOFFING. wkedjherghtiesrjnr...
Scared to screw this up, I make haste and swirl into the parking lot, and put my full attention on Koffing. A Scyther quick attack and some weak Stantler Astonishes (see, that move DOES have a use!), paired with its hypnosis, I catch shiny Koffing with a great ball. :D Third time I've seen a shiny, and caught it. First being Zubat during my ever-long search for gible in the wrong cave, second being an Illumise during Charizard level boosting. (both happened in Diamond) Amazing how shinies show up during the most unexpected times... I got a thing for in-the-air bug or poison shinies. :D
Cheers!
(I also got a cool book on organization and another on murder, oh no, I'm not planning anything...)
I'm now in Olivine City (which is so gorgeous) after Murkrow and Gyarados thrashed Morty & company, hysterically so. Brilliant gym design, by the way.
