Oops :nervous: . Your right, its 1/8195. But still, I have one shiny, with 600+ game hours... Iv'e spent a long time searching, and what have I got from it? A shiny Claydol! You can't even tell the differance on the GBA screen unless you compare it with another claydol... I need more shinys!

Stevo-kun October 17th, 2004 4:02 PM

I might be a little lucky cus I have 2 and I aint even played 100 hours XD.

Maybe. My problem is I have realy BAD luck when it comes to shinies... At least I got a shiny before I knew they existed, though.

Zootster October 17th, 2004 4:09 PM

For everyone in this club, ive figured out, on average, how long it takes to find a shiny in the wild. Assuming that it takes 5 seconds to find a Pokemon and 10 seconds to end the battle, it'll take 122,925 seconds. In other words, 34.14583333... hours. This is gonna take FOREVER!

If you assume all 26 of us were searching at the same time, one of us should run into a shiny in 1.31330128 hours.

EDIT: Actualy there are more of us now, but I'm not sure how many more.

AttackRage555 October 17th, 2004 4:29 PM

Pokemon_Veteran
It's just that u have a white background on ur pics, and we have clear ones. If u want clear backgrounds, just get ur spites from some site that's called PokemonElite2000 or somethin. Theres a link to it somewhere in this thread (I think towards the end).

Stevo-kun October 17th, 2004 4:59 PM

I did get them from pokemonelite2000.com

Pokemon_Veteran

Zootster October 17th, 2004 5:04 PM

Huh? I dunno then. Maybe u should just try again and see if it works. They could've changed their sprites or somthin.

Stevo-kun October 17th, 2004 5:07 PM

Could someone get them for me please, I would really appreciate it.

Pokemon_Veteran

Koga_LUVer October 17th, 2004 5:27 PM

Well I havent had time to search for shinys.Have I missed much here?

Maroslash October 17th, 2004 5:58 PM

dude dont upload them to photo bucket just right click on the shiny u want (on poke2000) go to properties then copy that link there ya done :)

ryan October 17th, 2004 6:47 PM

ya, that'll do. i have so much going on that i probably won't get to shiny hunting until tuesday.
o, i have a friend looking for a shiny mr. mime. so if you want to not go after him, that would be advisable.

PazzKat October 17th, 2004 8:34 PM

Sorry I have not posted much, please give me a few days, I'll get back on schedule.

Zootster October 18th, 2004 11:08 AM

I've been searching FOREVER and still, no shiny Unown!!! I've caught 4 "!"'s and STILL no shiny!!

SkinnyGreenMan October 18th, 2004 11:17 AM

Well, still no luck on clefairy...

I just started searching for shinys in the Pokemon Mansion, while I'm EV training my Onix.

I passed the pokerus over to my shiny Claydol, so now I have a shiny pokemon with the pokerus :) .

Koga_LUVer October 18th, 2004 7:07 PM

Still no shines.I think they don't like me.Maybe they're avoiding me.

ryan October 18th, 2004 8:54 PM

i'm here! i've been way busy with school stuff lately. and i'm sorta sick... but today we went on a field trip, and the whole train/bus/boat ride i shiny hunted, (and pummeled my friend ben 2 times in battle with my shiny gengar) tomorrow my homework cloud shall lift, and i can dedicate more time

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 6:42 AM

Thats cool XD and has anyone caught a shiny Pidgeot and if you have I am sooooo jealous because it is the shiny I want the most XD. Because it is one of my ultimate faves alongside Blaziken ofcourse.

Pokemon_Veteran

FireEmporer October 19th, 2004 8:33 AM

Whhaaaaa My Gameboys Battery is dead And I'm Sick! When I find My Gba:SP Charger I'm Gonna Hunt For Shinys!

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 8:50 AM

Oh man I hate it when that happens XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 9:36 AM

Well, I have had no luck on my current shinys. I think I'll look for Larvitar train my Onix...

Good luck, everyone.

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 2:03 PM

Good luck on finding Larvitar XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

ryan October 19th, 2004 2:32 PM

T.K. October 19th, 2004 2:59 PM

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 3:24 PM

Welcome to the Shiny Hunters Club! When Aaryn gets on, he will give you a formal OK.

So, what shinys do you have T.K.? The first two posts have club information that is constantly updated, so you might want to look there.


UPDATE: No luck yet... Oh well, I guess I'll just keep searching, it's great just to be in the club, even if I can't catch more than one shiny.

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 5:11 PM

XD. I havent had any luck in my LG yet but I am still searching XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 5:34 PM

*Searches for shinys*

Same here, how many shinys do you have?

*keeps on searching for shinys*

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 5:54 PM

Well I have none on LG but I have 2 on Sapphire and they r in my sig XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 5:56 PM

lol, I didn't see that. I caught a claydol in Sa, and traded it to Lg. It now has pokerus too.

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 5:59 PM

Kool XD, you r so lucky lol.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 6:06 PM

I would perfer two shinys over one shiny with the pokerus... besides, I got the pokerus from my friend's horsea.

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 6:16 PM

Oh ok XD. But my ultimate goal is to get a shiny Pidgeot. If I got only that one shiny on LG I would be a very happy bunny lol

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 6:28 PM

My fav shinies are Umbreon & ghastly. I don't realy care wich one I get now, just so long as it isn't purple as a shiny...

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 6:30 PM

XD. The reason I want Pidgeot is because it is one of my Ultimate faves XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 6:37 PM

Ah, okay... I realy don't care what shiny I get. I'm lookin for Larvitar right now (need to update sig).

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 6:52 PM

Stevo-kun October 19th, 2004 6:54 PM

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 6:56 PM

yay i get to join i'm gonna start lookin for a shiny right now

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 6:59 PM

You can look at our Shiny Dex. It keeps track of the shinys we have caught between members (it's on the second post).

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 7:00 PM

thats cool but i know what i'm lookin for i'm lookin for a shiny psyduck there so cool and blue

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 7:01 PM

Yeah, shiny psyduck are cool. You can put that in your sig, if you want.

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 7:02 PM

i will once i catch one if i find one

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 7:06 PM

I'm lookin for shiny larvitar right now...

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 7:07 PM

can u even find psyduck in leafgreen?

SkinnyGreenMan October 19th, 2004 7:16 PM

No, not in LG... You can get it in Ru/Sa/Fr. You get Slowpoke in Lg insted of Psyduck.

Goatman56 October 19th, 2004 7:49 PM

well i decided to look for a shiny krabby

Koga_LUVer October 19th, 2004 8:17 PM

I am never going to find a shiny.I'm cursed to not ever have one!

IceKitten October 20th, 2004 5:40 AM

I am currently trying to get the 3 birds shiny in my LG (wish me luck everyone)

So far here are the standings of number of tries XD
Zapdos - 200 tries
Moltres - 136 tries
Articuno - 100 tries

I switch birds every 100 tries so I don't get bored, kinda O_o

THIRTY-SIX October 20th, 2004 7:40 AM

i dont want to join but i was wondering how do you catch shiney rare pokemon like zapdos or mewtwo ?
do you resart the game until hes a shiney?

Yes you do >.>

Stevo-kun October 20th, 2004 9:43 AM

Well the truth is that I caught my shinies as Zigzagoon and Gulpin and evolved them XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

SkinnyGreenMan October 20th, 2004 10:30 AM

I caught my claydol as a claydol...

UPDATE: Nothing. Still no Clefairy/Larvitar... Maybe I should train my steelix elsewhere, Larvitar is too rare.


...*keeps looking for larvitar at the moment*...

Man, you are lucky.

Aaryn October 20th, 2004 11:50 AM

well 10,152 steps exactly while other eggs normally take 4,000~5,000

for example, torchic eggs open in 4,500 aprox steps. dont remember the exact number.

ANd it took me somethin like 160 eggs, i hadd to free a lot of chanseys!!

lol.


And mewtwo took me 234 tries. I accumulated a total of 300 hours of shiny hunting!!

and only shiny hunting excluding the 18:45:00 that took me to finish the game.

THIRTY-SIX October 20th, 2004 11:58 AM

aaryn did u breed to get shiny char and venu and blazikin and da rest? cept for mewtwo obviously

ill start shiny collecting when i get fr at chrismas time
only the rare ones that can be only caught once maybe ditto so offspring can be shiny

my ruby cant catch any more rare pokemon so oh well

Aaryn October 20th, 2004 12:01 PM

not for char, nor for venusaur but i did for blaziken

THIRTY-SIX October 20th, 2004 12:06 PM

aaryn try catch a shiny chimeno in mt. pyre id really rate u for that (make rep go up if u tell me how), seeing as i had to trade with my cuzes gamesharked game.

mustve been starting the game again and again for charmander and bulbasaur

try for a ditto then u can get parctically all breedable pokemon in shiny

how far does the union room stretch cos i would mind trading with u lol :laugh:

Goatman56 October 20th, 2004 12:12 PM

come on u supid shiny krabby y won't u appear

Zootster October 20th, 2004 12:15 PM

Quote:

try for a ditto then u can get parctically all breedable pokemon in shiny
even if he did get a shiny ditto, breeding a shiny doesn't give u any better chance of hatching a shiny (the chance is still 1/8192). It would wake sense if it did, but it doesn't.

Aaryn October 20th, 2004 12:27 PM

pacience my padawans, lol.

no offence, well ill accept the dare for that shiny chimecho! ill start this night! ill spend all night searching, have fun! ill inform u

THIRTY-SIX October 20th, 2004 12:30 PM

ill make ur rep go up if catch 1 and if u tell me how 2 make it go up

how long have u been shiny hunting? ur only one year oolder than me :\ :cross-eye

ryan October 20th, 2004 1:08 PM

hey, i'm taking a break from shiny hunting in history, and going onto pokecommunity in history. cool trade huh? still no luck on my shiny aerodactyl... stupid peice of crap. i hate ben.

If you look on someones profile, you should see three icons at the end. One is a green, or black light (if the person is currently active it's green), two is a scale. Click the scale, and select "I approve", then type your comment for the person to see, and click "Add to Reptutation".

ryan October 20th, 2004 1:57 PM

ya, and giving cofounders of cool clubs is a good way to earn instant respect *cough cough*

Stevo-kun October 20th, 2004 2:55 PM

No luck on my Shiny Pidgeot yet XD.

Pokemon_Veteran

Zootster October 20th, 2004 2:59 PM

AAARRRGGHH!!! The shiny shellder just DOESNT want to be found!!!!

ryan October 20th, 2004 3:47 PM

don't get too angry, otherwise you'll kill it when you do find it. you'll just be like:
"graaa! you've been evading me for so long!!! i'll teach you a lesson!!!!"
and then you'll blow it out of the water (well, maybe not, you seem to have some self control)

Yami's Girl October 20th, 2004 4:10 PM

Well I'm getting a little agrivated. No stantler or Growlithe! It annoys me....

Stevo-kun October 20th, 2004 4:20 PM

Well shiny hunting is soo hard XD but thats why I like it and why I get so happy when i find one lol

Pokemon_Veteran

T.K. October 20th, 2004 5:49 PM

I don't have any shinies yet but I've been searching for a while now.

SkinnyGreenMan October 20th, 2004 5:54 PM

i got sandshrew but someones probably alredy got that

SkinnyGreenMan October 21st, 2004 11:40 AM

Yeah, someone did. But that's okay, you still got a shiny to add to your personal collectoin!

Hey, does anyone want to look for Catterpie? That is the only one we need of the 1st 22 pokemon.

THIRTY-SIX October 21st, 2004 11:41 AM

so som1 found metapod then evolved it?

skinny do u moderate this tread wen aaryns not ere?

SkinnyGreenMan October 21st, 2004 11:44 AM

Well, the way this works (at least the way I think it works?), is when you catch a pokemon, all the pokemon in it's evolutionairy set are added to the dex... Exept for those like Eevee and Tyrouge, where you only get one of it's evolutons per shiny.

I think that's how Aaryn wanted me to do it, if you want me to do the dex another way, Aaryn, go ahed and tell me.

THIRTY-SIX October 21st, 2004 11:48 AM

is this tread all bout the real games and not the roms

SkinnyGreenMan October 21st, 2004 11:51 AM

You can find a lot of information about the club on the first two posts.

Kiri October 21st, 2004 11:57 AM

I've been looking for shinies all my life, but I've never seen one. I'll join!
