Holiday Shinies:
While I was on a holiday in QLD, I spent the whole day travelling up shiny hunting and this is the outcome.

- Marowak
I was looking in a ground safari where I hadn't found a shiny out of the three available and this was the Pokemon I managed to encounter after 251 encounters.

- Basculin
I decided to get a dratini for the living dex, I actually wanted to get a shiny one after I found one of them as - who couldn't resist a pink Dratini? So I stayed there and fished until I beat my fish chaining record. On a chain of 17 I got the shiny Basculin.

- Basculin
Continuing from the chain on 17, I remained here until 150 where I found another shiny Basculin. I then decided that I will take a break from this hunt as I will just get more fish.

- Whismur
I went back to hording as I actually want a shiny Zubat, most people don't but I got the Axew when I tried for it before and this time I got a Whismur. I just want the bat!!

- Munna
On Pokemon X, I stayed on the friend safari where I obtained this shiny Munna after a whole day of hunting for it previously.

- Wingull
I went to horde for another bird I didn't have, Wingull. This was going to be an entry for the competition but I will find one of each type instead of double ups.

- Fletchling
Speaking of birds I didn't have. This is a bird I have enough of. I was looking to chain a Caterpie as I have been for a year and when I was looking to begin the chain, I get this shiny Fletchling.. I wanted Caterpie...

- Foongus
After finding the shiny Fletchling I realized it reset my odds again so I went to pick them up with hordes again, maybe a shiny Murkrow would be nice? Nope I get Foongus!

Back to Back Shinies (On one game this time)
I went back to searching for the shiny Dratini and after 50 encounters I got a shiny Poliwhirl. I was rendering videos so I didn't record it but when I continued the next fish - right after, It was a shiny Basculin. I didn't get Dratini -.-

I am typing this as I am home from my holiday and I have almost completed the Fall Quest. Just looking for a Ghost type. All have been live encounters so I have proof of each one I obtain. I learn't how to chain out of this competition so I couldn't be more than happy with the progression. Good luck to everyone and I hope you all enjoy your shiny hunts!

I tried Poke Radar today. My longest chain was 23 for a Caterpie.


I did about 5 chains after that but they all lasted about 6. They all broke either by me resetting in an edge grass, running into a Pokémon in edge grass or running into the wrong Pokémon, as well as running into dead grass I didn't see.

There was a couple times where I ran into an edge patch that hadn't been on screen when shaking and had the target Pokémon in them and didn't break the chain. I know there's a 37% chance of an edge grass breaking the chain even if it contains the target Pokémon. Though I didn't know grass can shake off camera, that kind of sucks.


I ended with a 22 chain for Weedle. The Weedle chain actually included fast music at one point, but I didn't know anything about it and I was on a chain of 7 or 8 so I thought fast music only helped if you were on a chain of 40. I instead went into a couple shaking grass that were good but after awhile the music ended. I don't know if I could've just keep resetting the radar no matter what chain I was on.
And a shiny patch might have appeared.

Anyways after the Weedle chain broke I gave up and decided to Dexnav and Friend Safari race for shiny Pikachu, I got it via Dex Nav at 83 encounters. It had a search level of about 160 when I started.

After a somewhat sizable Shiny Drought I have obtained two Shinys in two days:

Shiny Male Wingull - Looking for Shiny Slowpoke, got a Shiny Wingull instead...my 3rd one.

Shiny Mime Jr (Mimey) - Found in Reflection Cave after about an hour and a half of Hoard Hunting. It was at the right end of the Hoard and was caught in a Premier Ball. He has a Calm Nature and the Filter Ability. He also has three Perfect IVs (Atk, SpAtk, SpDef) and is only the second Shiny Baby Pokemon I have caught.

I like the colour scheme here as for some reason it reminds me of fruit flavoured ice cream. Shiny Mr Mime is Green which suits a male and due to his solid stats I will train him up. My newest Shiny is named after Delia's Mr Mime in the Anime.

 

[Maserati777]

Was Dexnaving for Gloom and I usually encounter every Pok?mon that pops up just in case they are shiny.


Another shiny Pikachu popped up. It's about 17 Pikachu encounters from the last one.


I also did about 900 horde encounters for a shiny Nidoran/Stunky/Starly with no luck.

 

[Lrachelr5]

Spent today dex naving for a shiny Skorupi for the fall challenge, got to a search level of 100 and no luck yet. Decided that it is time to do some chain fishing for a shiny Carvanha or Sharpedo.

 

[Maserati777]

I went to the Safari Zone this morning to dexnav Rhyhorn. A Heracross appeared as soon as I got there and it was shiny. Search level was 7.

 

[Cheaseberger]

i own a few shinies
Darkrai, Latios, Flygon, Arceus, umbreon and I'm currently breeding for a shiny goomy

 

[Maserati777]

I just found a shiny Weepinbell in 36 hordes.

 

[LilyGardy]

I have found a couple more Shinys:

Shiny Male Hoppip - Found in a Horde in X. Gentle Nature. This is my third Shiny Hoppip but it is incredibly cute so I will keep it in its unevolved form.

Shiny Male Vulpix - Found on a Mirage Island in Alpha Sapphire. It had a search level of 221 and on a chain of only 20. It has a Calm Nature, Max IVs in Defence and its Hidden Ability Drought. This Shiny is very pleasing as it is the first Shiny I have found in Alpha Sapphire for some time and the Yellow Shiny form of Vulpix surprised me. He took 7 Ultra Balls to catch.

He is now a Shiny Ninetales and I really like the elegance of Ninetales Shiny Colour Scheme. The light blue complements the silvery white well. Ninetales is my favourite Fire Pokemon and I am delighted to obtain a Shiny one. :D

 

[AliceBlaze]

Shiny Male Wingull - Looking for Shiny Slowpoke, got a Shiny Wingull instead...my 3rd one.

That's what happened to me. I offered my 3 spare shiny Wingull for trade and I still don't have any takers.

 

[Maserati777]

I found a shiny Nuzleaf in Friend Safari at 276 encounters.

 

[LilyGardy]

That's what happened to me. I offered my 3 spare shiny Wingull for trade and I still don't have any takers.

Shiny Wingull is the new Lake of Rage Shiny Gyardos. Everyone seems to have one. Pelipper is a nice Shiny admittedly. Mine is called Greenwing.

I put one of my spare Shiny Wingull's on the GTS asking for a Kyogre. Someone sent me an (Almost Certainly Cloned) Shiny Purple Kyogre. :0

 

[GetchaSome]

Not really much of a shiny hunter but I've managed three shinies on my Pokémon X so far.

Got a shiny Ralts in a wonder trade
Caught a shiny Murkrow in a horde while I was EV training
Hatched a shiny Makuhita

Really excited about the shiny Makuhita which is now a Hariyama. One of my favorite shinies. I think my next shiny I'm gonna hatch for will be for Nidoqueen. Another awesome shiny.

 

[LilyGardy]

Shiny Female Clefairy (Kourtney) - I caught this Pokemon in a Fairy Type Friend Safari in my X game. (Stephanie)

My latest Shiny is Level 30, with a Hardy Nature, Hidden Ability Friend Guard and Max IVs in Special Defense and Speed. The Shiny Form of Clefairy has Green ear tips which makes it instantly recognisable from its normal colouration. The lighter pink of the Shiny is also very nice. I plan to use a Moon Stone to evolve her into Clefable. I like the Clefairy line a lot and it is my favourite Fairy type after the Gardevoir line.

I have been Friend Safari Shiny Hunting a lot recently as I find it is the least intensive type of hunting and you can do other things such as watching television. Guess what I was watching when I found Shiny Clefairy. :)

Next Hunt - Chain Fishing in Alpha Sapphire for Shiny Carvanha.

7110 SR's. Never forget.

 

[icycatelf]

No new full-odds Shinies, but I did finally get my Shiny Shuckle! Ended up chaining it instead of MMing. I'll probably start another new file on HeartGold or SoulSilver and trade her over. Maybe we'll have better luck Shiny-hunting than Daniel (my Shiny Yanma) and I did.

Oh noes! D:

 

[Maserati777]

After doing 512 encounters in a grass safari for either Sunkern, Sawsbuck or Quilladin I went into a safari with Tyrogue, Pancham and Meditite.


Unfortunately the shiny was a 3rd Meditite though it was at 25 encounters.


Edit: Found a second shiny Illumise in Friend Safari at 189 encounters, my first was on OR with dexnav.

D:

I'll send a Master Ball your way to prevent this from happening again if you need.
Maybe not the prettiest ball, but at least it could be thrown when you know that it'll probably faint itself on the next turn :p

Thanks so much for this idea, I have traded with my brother to get a master ball so this shouldn't happen again <3 Many thanks!
