Does chaining work for you?
I've been chaining for shinies since tuesday, and it's quite tough i admit but i've found a shiney sneasel and Shellos
My brother has tried it for the same period and has had no luck, finding only a shiney Starly but being unable to catch it So it's obvious the results vary from person to person. Does chaining work for you? P.s this is not a trade thread, so no discussion of trades please |
Yeh once out of like 20 tries lol, caught myself a shiny Electrike
|
>_> I made a topic sorta like this a while back, but it was called "How does chaining work for you?"
Anyways I just caught a Shiny Zubat this morning (Adamant!) oh and if my signature isn't enough proof that Chaining works well for me, I dunno what is. |

I'm currently trying to get a Bidoof, start small lol |
Shiny Cubone after many tries lol.
|
I've never successfully chained a shiny. I've chained for hours and never found one.
|
I used to chain earlier but I've concluded that chaining is a big waste of time after my 47 chain of Electrike was broken by a stupid Buizel. I never saw a single shiny patch in those two hours that I chained for a shiny Electrike.
|
Yes it does work for me, I found a shiny chansey today but was unable to catch it as I had a level 1 with me and great balls were beating to 3 but anyways, thats my luck.

i have to say it works for me. i got a shiny pichu and shiny sneasel in only 8 chains which i think is crazy. i hear people usually go past 40 or whatever. its all about patience and stuff. im trying to catch a shiny pinsir, and its taking me all week. but, i only stop playing once my chain is broken, so i usually play like 20 or 30 min a day, just chaining until its broken, than i quit.
|
I find it's different with everything, i chained over 40 today to get my Shellos and only around 30 for Sneasel
|
i chained 35 pinsirs but than it got broken by a friggin weepingbell:pirate:
so, i turned it off eventhough i gained 2 lvls with my glaceon. it took me like 1 1/2 hrs. well, theres always tomorrow |
it does not work for me because...
1) i'm too impatient 2) I'm the unluckiest guy on the planet. |
haha i havnt had ANY luck with chianing......they always get broken BEFORE NINE!!!!!!!!now that is freaking annoying.
|
I caught a Shiny Kricketune while chaining to EV train, but when I was chaining for Shiny Ponyta, nothing. And I have two chains of 34 and 23. :/
|
Chaining is simply too easy from me now, lol.
If you ever hear stories about someone getting 36 shiny Ralts from a chain, that's me, btw. |

What Pokeradar technique do you use, ShadowTails? Do shiny patches show up or don't they? Also, is there any "sure-fire" (Pokeradar-esque) way to get shinies from fishing or caves?
|
That was what I was going to ask also, only I was just wondering, assuming that the Pokeradar works on water and in caves and not just grass(never used it before in my life), does that mean that fishing in the spot will generate a Shiny also? I ask this because I'm one of those who'd really like a shiny Gyarados as part of my collection, since I only have 2 legit shinies, though if we're talking non-legit(i.e. hacked) I've got nearly 400.
|
If you would check the FAQ you'd see my write up on chaining.
On another note, Pokeradar only works in the grass. |
does anyone have any tips on trying to chain Trapinch? i tried it for like 1 minute and i quit cause i couldnt see a damn thing
