I've played in total, over 1000+ hours and have never seen a shiny before. And red Gyarados doesn't count.

this thread is getting a little out of hand

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:03 PM

i don't think so it is just a discussion

brotlov August 12th, 2007 10:04 PM

heated discussion, if you look at all the posts, people are going a bit over the top

Then push the report button instead of SPAMming. SPAMming is out of hand.



Regarding not catching a shiny in 500+ hours, that just means you need to keep trying. If you never catch one, then so be it, you trade for some. That's what I did, and I'm up to 3 boxes full now.

You have to CHAIN! AKA encounter the same pokemon over and over again.

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:09 PM

there is like no way to do that!!...well obviously there is BUT, there are so many pokemon that appear in one place..

Exactly, it's all about patience and execution. You just need to know what you're doing when you chain, and hope for a little good luck too.

For the record, SPAM is defined as:
Stupid
Pointless
Annoying
Message(s)
(i.e what you just did too)

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:12 PM

well yeah, we "spammed" under your opinion of spamming

BOYBOY August 12th, 2007 10:12 PM

tragicnightmare ur too koo i feel exactly how u feel chainin doesnt help cuz i would kill for a shiny rhydon and where u find him only 2 other pokemon are in the area and still nuttin

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:14 PM

i know i can see what they are saying about them being hacked... but what i don't get is all they are is dif. colors. i don't see why people can't think of them as legit when they are the same pokemon just shiny

"Under my opinion"? No, under the forum rules' opinion. First rule on the list. Try reading them.

That just means you need to keep trying. I know where you're talking about, near Stark Mountain, and it's pretty hard to chain there considering how small the grass patches are. Just keep trying, you'll get it eventually.

BOYBOY August 12th, 2007 10:18 PM

exactly i just wouldnt trade one to anyone because there arent "legit" in PBR so they say ive never tried using one on there

It's because you aren't chaining right. A guide on chaining can be found here. Read the guide and practice with the PokeRadar and you should eventually come across a shiny. I've gotten four boxes full of shiny Pokémon and most of them came from chaining.

Secondly, try using Pokeradar, maybe read a guide somewhere. It's not all going to be handed to you, you need to actually put some effort into finding stuff.

Sorry to go so far back in the thread. But one thing about chaining. It can't work as much as people say it does. Most of the Pokemon worth getting shiny, roam where Floatzel are, and Floatzel always break chains. I do not thing hacking shinies with AR is considered bad, I don't think cloning or item hacking is bad either. Hacking an item to get you the god of all pokemon, which you can't even use in the battle tower, or most fights because of people not wanting ubers. I agree with BOYBOY on this whole issue. Shiny pokemon are nothing but misscolored pokemon, and most of the shiny pokemon you find have crappy natures anyway.

HoundoomOfTheDarkness August 12th, 2007 10:21 PM

Do you even need to ask if that is cheating?! Why don't you ask my friend and his 200-odd Action Replay shinies if that's cheating?!

YES IT'S CHEATING!!!

...sorry. I get a little mad when it comes to Action Replay stuff.

Sigh, I give up on this issue. Obviously those of you saying that AR-shiny catching is OK don't have much integrity. Pokemon these days have become something that people can collect, and hacking to get rare collectables is like stealing rare collectables. Obviously Pokemon aren't going to triple in value or something like that, but it's still nice to have teh feeling that you have a collection that wasn't cheated to get. That's where I will leave my opinion on this matter.

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:24 PM

i 100% agree! just like I THINK cloning is CHEATING ALSO because you arent getting it the right way!, since that is basically what you guys are basically saying

BOYBOY August 12th, 2007 10:27 PM

i think that cloning is just retarted i would never do it just cuz i could raise a better poke than just cloning one but i guess if ur into that i dont really think its cheatin either...thanks hauntermaster for agreeing with me

HoundoomOfTheDarkness August 12th, 2007 10:31 PM

If I wanted to clone, I'd have an army of level 100 EV trained Houndooms. Do I have this army? No. Would I like this army? Very much so, but I'm not gonna clone my Houndoom.

However, need I remind everyone that the thread is about Action Replay shinies, not cloning?

BOYBOY August 12th, 2007 10:32 PM

yea i feel u wolfie with the "value feelin" on pokemon but i look them at a battle standpoint they dont alter stats in anyway or learn moves that they shouldnt they just look koo...some of them lol others just look straight carebear lookin haha

:\ I don't think anybody was talking about cloning in this topic.

I didn't put my own opinion in my last post so I'll do it now. Using an AR to change the chances of encountering a Pokemon in the wild or through hatching an egg from 8192 to 1 is cheating. I don't mind if you keep it in your game but once you start trading hacked shiny Pokemon then I will have not problem labeling you a hacker. I view trading hacked shiny Pokemon like selling counterfeit items, pirated movies, etc.

xxTragicNightmare August 12th, 2007 10:32 PM

so, i was just mentioning it no big deal, BOYBOY had no problem with it

BOYBOY August 12th, 2007 10:38 PM

yea i would never trade them that would really be a lack of integrity on my part
