    I've honestly never had a shiny charm and foreign ditto before so shiny breeding is pretty novel for me.
    I don't intend to shiny breed everything. I'm gonna do like my favorite mons and then call it quits =p

    I've never had this many shinies lol
    1 in emerald (the shiny hariyama that consoled me for losing the golduck :U ). I had 3 in HeartGold not counting the fixed Lake of Rage shiny. Shiny Graveler, Magneton and the stingiest of all.... shiny unown.. but not the letter of my name T^T (or any letter in my name for that matter rofl)
    HeartGold was my game with the most shinies till gen 8. I only ever had an occasional shiny in later games (shiny spinarak in one of the gen 7 games shiny foongus in either black or white). And that's it for random wild encounter shinies pre gen 8. And like I already mentioned I did not shiny breed at all pre gen 8.
    Hell I never did any serious breeding before gen 8 whatsoever.
    Gen 8 got me into it because breeding has been made so much easier and quite a lot less tedious.

    Yea after 7PM, around 7:30 PM most likely

    I still want to see it xD Oh and while I'm at it, I should also decide now which Flappletun I want.
    (Edit: Docile Flappletun it is)

    True. But I can make them forget these if it learns any xD (Not gonna do that, lol. This would be a case of "going unneccesarily out of my way")

    That's actually pretty good :O I guess you can say that wishes come true if you believe in them really hard. The max amount I ever bred a pokemon was like...about 120 I think. The only shiny I got lucky with was my Scorbunny...aka. Tinder54 xD (Number implying how many I bred, used to do that with the first mons I bred for competitive use xD) Tho I like the normal one more, I was like "Eh. You are shiny and you obviously want attention...and I guess I could ev train a shiny for the first time, so why not?".

    Yes. Nowadays you can get shinies much easier. As one YTer said: They...kinda lost their value lol.

    Great, sounds good to me :) I assume this means after 7-8 PM, something like that.

    Ye it happened while I was PM'ing someone here... was really annoying xD
    So shall I omit the suspicious one from the lineup or do you still wanna see it?

    I'm actually not sure if it learns any by evolving, but even it does you wont be able to stop it. Level 1 porygon have only 2 moves, so if it were to learn any by evolving it will auto learn them. I'm tempted to say it doesn't learn anything by evolving but I guess we'll see.
    I bred 150 mons a day for 5 days. Didn't have enough time on day 5 to hatch them as well so did that next day, which was when the 1st shiny pory showed up. The next day I was like, I want Both porygon 2 & Z shiny so I'm gonna keep going. Bred 150 eggs again. Got shiny porygon 2 & 3 while emptying those boxes (in the same row of 5 eggs lolz).
    So shiny porygon 1 took 750 to aquire.
    Shiny porygon's 2 & 3 in the next 150. So i bred 900 total. Which for 3 shinies, is pretty good.

    Free replacement shiny skorupi is nice yea =o

    Thursday is fine too sure. We should be able to start after dinner time.

    Weird to see the PC server being too busy...as if everyone tried to do something here at the same time xD was Almost got mad because right after I sent the textlonger, it said that the server was too busy and that I should try later again. Feared that my message was deleted and didn't want to sit another 15 min to type everything in -_-'' Luckily my message was temporarily saved and refreshing the site and clicking "Yes, send again" helped a lot.

    Regarding that possible hacked mon: I'd say it's rather hacked/genned in than legit/legal? (Dunno the term, one is basically hacked but theoretically possible to get in the game, the other is just purely obtained with the game without required modifications). A Pokemon doesn't have to have everything to be considered "likely not legit".

    I ses. I guess we can try the trade mon preview thing out next time.

    Sure, I'd love to help you out with the tradevolutions :) I don't think that Porygon learns any moves via trade, if so - is there anything you want me to teach it or just skip every move? Also gongrats on three shinies xD Never did I hear before that one was trying to shiny breed a Pokemon and ended up with enough shinies for each pokemon in the evolution line xD Crazy luck you got there, so gongratulations :D Also it didn't took you many pokemon if I saw correctly? Like only idk...5-6 boxes? How many did you breed to get all three?

    Regarding Wednesday - could we move it to Thursday? I thought I'd have Wednesday free but nope - Thursday. And I'd rather do everything more or less in peace then do this stuff after 10 PM after work (not sure if I'll be available at 10 PM or have to work extra minutes, like last time).

    Yeah, shinies in Safari Zone suck big time D: If they appear there, then the catch rate should be like...100%. Hmmm...you reminded me of a wholesome thing that happened to me waaay back in like...2008-2011 or so. Found a shiny Skorupi in Great Marsh (in Diamond). Immediately took out my mukty phone camera and recorded my attempt of catching it xD I think I threw one ball, it broke out and fled haha. Uploaded this video on YT (got about 6500 views iirc) and here comes the wholesome part: Someone actually contacted me and send me a shiny Skorupi :D I was nitpicky because it was a female one instead of the male one that fled but looking back at it, this was really nice from the person :) I actually turned on Diamond a few months ago and recorded my boxes (in case my save file dies). Maybe the shiny Skorupi is still there somewhere.

    Actually talked with the uploader about this (via YT comment section) on a video that he uploaded - shiny Graveler (in Diamond, on emulator, in Victory Road) using Explosion :O No matter what, noone ever goes like "Oh, I need (e.g.) a Quagsire with Damp in case I encounter an exploding Shiny, or something that can block a shiny Roar/Whirlwind", which is understandable.

    Funny thing is that I never noticed this until I saw a "Pokemon facts" video months ago, where this thing was mentioned xD And I was like "Wow." (Grew up with "Arktos", "Zapdos" and "Lavados" btw).

    Well this is hilarious... I just hatched 2 more shiny porygon's in a row.
    Now I can have the entire family shiny =D
    Still need to empty out 2,5 box... who knows, I might get another =o
    Once I've hatched those my porygon breeding is done =D

    The even more hilarious part, across the 3 porygons... I got all 3 abilities xD
    The one that hatched yesterday had the HA Analytic... the ones that hatched now have Trace & Download.

    Edit: nope, no 4th one from that 2,5 box lol

    Never noticed it before... and now that I did notice it I was just like, did they seriously put one, two, three in their names but in spanish?!

    Also Wednesday should be fine.
    In gen 3 safari zone (back on Emerald), I bumped into a shiny golduck. Damn thing ran away before I could catch it. I later caught a shiny hariyama though so whatever (not in the safari zone, some random encounter on a route I can't remember).
    Safari Zone shinies are almost the worst. The only worse one I can think off would be Exploding Mons like Electrode. Because unless you counter that specifically you'll usually not have a way to stop them from blowing up with you (on your party). Hasn't happened to me yet, but it could still lol

    No Pokerus on it. OT = vis, ID no. = 034519. Hasty nature, no ribbons. Full Dynamax Level, in a Moon Ball, No HA.
    The judges function says Best on all stats and 'Amazing Stats!' at bottom.

    So it's got good IV's, in a special ball, is shiny and someone just gives it away for helping complete dex. Either the dude was super happy to complete his dex, or this thing is suspicious as all heck lol Without confirmation I tend to hang on to them though.

    When you both have a pokemon up for trade you can click check summary actually. I use it regularly to see if its holding an item (usually when doing trade evos). No idea if you can see all of a mons tabs though, like you can in your own boxes.

    I've hatched my first shiny porygon yesterday. I'd like to trade evolve it with you if you don't mind helping. I already got the item necesary (back from our child-to-main acount mon toss lol). I'm still breeding for a second one (I want to evolve one all the way to porygon-z, the other to porygon 2)

    I've already gone into DA and forced buff mosquito aka Buzzwole (i don't see the proffessor bit lol) and sassy bug aka Pheromosa (I love walking aorund the wild area with pheromosa, the damn thing is so speedy lol). A good flyping type and you wreck these two so easily in the den lol (x 4 weak to it xD)
    So we can do those whenever you want.

    True. Initially, I planned to use these " but then I thought that it is obvious anyway.

    Already have that Shiny Toxtricity Event in Sword, so I think I'll likely pass it up. Gen 1 would've been my other guess. Sounds interesting, can't wait to see these shiny pokemon :)

    You should be able to easily determine if it's legit or not by looking at its nickname, Trainer ID, IVs, EVs, nature and Pokerus y/n aswell. I could help you out with that but I think you'd have to send me the details, because the option "Check summary" isn't available when you see what the other trainer offers for the trade iirc?

    I guess I could do these trades on Wednesday evening, if that is fine with you? By then I should've settled on which Flapple I want to take aswell. "Flashing the shinies", now I came up with a bad joke xD What does flash in front of a Pokemon Trainer before he dies? The shinies he missed :P

    ahhh... sarcasm can be hard to detect in text form lol.

    Ahm.. I just realised I actually got 4 shinies double due to the shiny toxtricity event (feb 19 - march 19). Unless you missed the event I guess you wouldn't be interested in it though. I already had a shiny toxtricity before the event that I now have double and would be willing to spare. I'll send it to shield just in case you missed it I guess.
    The other 3 though... 1 of them is gen 3 yes. No gen 4 or 6's though. The others are gen 1 and gen 8.

    Also the gen 3 one is the only one that has my OT. The other 2 (as well as the spare shiny toxtricity mentioned above) all have other people's OT's. I swapped a bunch of shinies before I started breeding my own lol. One of them as well as the spare shiny toxtricity are from someone who caught them in a shiny den someone else hosted. The other is a level 100 shiny I've always considered sketch since the dude gave it to me for helping him complete his pokedex. I never hack checked it though so who knows, maybe it is legit lol.

    Anyway whenever you have a HA Friend Ball Delibird ready, we can set up a trade for my safari ball HA heracross. If you want another Flapple/Appletun we can do this as well.
    After that I'll flash you the shinies =p

    Yeah, they always seem like they are not sure how to do evolutions. "Follow-Up"/Pre-evolutions in Gen 2, latter one again in Gen 3, then a very big focus on the former one in Gen 4. Skipping these altogether in Gen 5. Introducing Mega-Evolutions that aren't permanent in Gen 6 (some of them I didn't like too - "overdesign syndrome"). Then, introducing these region form evolutions in Gen 7 (= introducing new type combos without having to design a entirely new pokemon from scratch). Then the Gigantamax "Evolutions" in Gen 8, which only last max. 3 turns and getting rid of the Mega Evos (for now).

    Yeah, the good thing is that you can catch Electivire/Magmortar now. Still sucks that you have only one Electrizer/Magmatizer per save file tho. If you want to have a perfectly bred Electivire/Magmortar, then you have to save up that item.

    True xD To me it looks like a weird circus guy kinda thing, but that's all I got for the description xD

    True, this one is probably hacked/genned in too - I was being sarcastic in my last message.
    Sport Ball gives off a similar safari vibe iirc. But as you said, I would only like to have it with a Pokemon that can be caught in the National Park Bug Catching Contest.

    Oh wow, a shiny? Didn't expect that :O Well, it'll be nice to see which ones you have to offer :) Just for fun, I'm gonna name the gens from which the pokemon are and you can only tell me if I'm right or wrong, if you want: Gen 3, Gen 4, Gen 6.

    Yea apparantly now you need to have a new regional variant to get a new evolution (looking at you Sirfetch'd & Cursola).
    Idk, I feel like Electivire/Magmortar/MamoSwine are pretty popular among players. I mean the goofier ones like Probopass (like seriously, why was this thing made ?!? xD) arent very popular. I personally always wanted to use a Electivire & Magmortar, but never could. Simply because GTS is not a place where you can safely deposit a trade evo mon that requires a specific held item. I tried it once, to see if I'd get lucky. Obviously I didn't xD
    Gen 8 for me is the first time that I actually have these 'trade evo with item ' mons available to me.

    Ah the disco ball fireworks thing... its signature move fits it very well. 'mind blown'. My mind got blown in gen 7 when I saw this thing for the first time and was just like... ' ReKoil.exe has stopped working.....' .

    Usually website stuff is hacked or genned in. If its actually legit you got pretty lucky lol.
    Sport ball to me is either bug or fire type mons. Bug because that's what it was originally used for back in Johto's bug catching contest. Fire types because of the ball's look tbh.
    Hence I evolved my own into Flareon.
    As for the mystery mon, I have a few shinies that I have 2 of now. I think I'll show you all 3 in-trade next time we trade, and then you can pick 1 of them. I'll pull em up for trade in the trade window to show you then cancel trade, show next, cancel again etc. When you've seen all 3 you'd just respond here with which one you want (if you want any that is, could be you already have al 3 of them).

    True, but it will still be very funny to me xD All "original" 493 Pokemon + that one from Kalos xD Very interesting tho, how they completely avoided (pre-)evolutions after Gen 4 (still weird why Alolamola isn't an evo of Luvdisk) - I wonder if the Gen 4 evos (Electivire, Magmortar, etc.) were mostly badly recieved ("lazy, could've gotten completely new pokemon with new evos instead of evos from pre-existing mons")?

    Yep, still missing a few. Buff Professor Insect, Elegant Lady Insect, the Ghost/Fire one (can't describe what it is) and Walking Cyber Pyramid.

    No problem. In fact, I'm glad that he got it :) I found out that I recieved a totally legit Shiny Pokerus Lv.100 Master Ball carrying Eevee a long time ago from Eevee.vip. Tbh with you, I was pretty confused as of what I could've evolved this Shiny into anyway xD Already have a non-shiny EV-trained Umbreon and since I lately got some shiny blue Pokemon (Lycanroc Dusk Form, Nidorino) I got kinda a little sick of seeing another one = would've avoided shiny Sylveon. Shiny Glaceon and Leafeon would be interesting for me and would've decided for shiny Leafeon since the ball fits best for it imo.

    Sounds interesting :) I wonder if you recieved one of those Lv. 100 shiny Pokemon via Suprise Trade? xD Guess the only way to find out is in the next trade. Also I have to see what natures those Flapples got (almost typed it without the L, loool).

    Sylveon might make it. There should already be an eevee in the game (gen 4 was where Leafeon/Glaceon got introduced iirc).
    In ORAS you for example had Chimecho and Nosepass from gen 3, but chingling and Probopass were also included (both later gens) due to being related to those mons (baby form and an evolved form respectively).

    Also if there's any other mons you still need (like maybe a missing UB or something), I got them all caught and should be able to force them.

    On a side note, about the giveaway thread I was doing:
    The RNG sites were not in your favor sadly. I used multiple and all picked sniebel as the winner (I posted about it in the giveaway thread too). You can still claim another Flapple/Appletun if you want though. I'm not expecting any more interest in those.
    Also have something else I might give you if wanted, but you'll have to see in-trade what that is :3
