You might want to use a spoiler tag or more to condense the list. :P

Lol, didn't think of that haha. Done :)

G-Money October 25th, 2015 3:34 PM

1100 Route 116 encounters
3100 Mélancolie Path encounters
Some Frillish

I've continued my Mélancolie Path Halloween Hunt in X, searching the fields for a shiny Pumpkaboo! Shiny hunting there really makes me appreciate the cool weather variety and fall atmosphere of the route that I'd never notice if I didn't spend hours hunting in the same place, haha.

If I don't get Frillish by the end of October, I'll probably move on to hunting Sableye in Black 2. Frillish is a really great summer hunt, so I'll probably continue in 2016 (or 2017 or 2018, since Sableye will be a really tough hunt, haha)!

Haha, thanks! I hope you get yours soon too!

Congrats on those shinies! Swablu's a really cool looking shiny that I'd like to get sometime. I might head over to that route on my Hoenn tour if I ever manage to challenge Boss Nincada, "lol"!

Hope you find Staryu soon!

Welcome back, Paulthagerous!! We're really glad to have the 2015 shiny leader return..."lol", you totally clinched the most shinies for the entire year back in May, haha. After you get your Feebas, you could see how far you get in the Yearly Challenge if you want! I'd be interested to see how much of that you could do after you were able to do that amazing May, haha.

Good luck with your hunt!

Yeah, as long as I exclude the ones I grabbed of the GTS (cos they don't really count) but include hordes then I am in OK shape. Question though - can we double count one? As in, if it fits tier 2 and tier 4 and tier 6 can it count for 3, or would I need 3 of the same (1 for each tier)?

Tarro57 October 25th, 2015 4:50 PM

Hey there! I'm new to the PokeCommunity, and thought I might stop by here :) I've recently started a badge quest on my Soul Silver and I'm still SRing for a starter. I'm debating whether I should start the 2015 challenge or just wait for 2016. My big goal is to compete the shiny dex, one still got a long way to go, but I'm working on it. I look forward to posting my finds here! :D

Runasutaru October 25th, 2015 4:55 PM

Welcome to the thread and to PokéCommunity, Tarro! You'll need an owner or co-owner's approval to become an official member, but I see no reason you'd be declined. I hope you will be posting many finds in the future!

I've never tried a badge quest because I nitpick about Shiny IVs now that Gen VI lets me breed for good ones. However, those quests do sound like a way to have a change of pace. Are you going for any specific starter or just picking the one that flashes its Shiny sprite first?

G-Money October 25th, 2015 6:38 PM

3333 Mélancolie Path encounters

Pumpkaboo definitely glow in the dark. :pink_laugh:

Sorry, you can't double count for the Yearly Quest between tiers. What you can do, however, is double count between the Yearly Quest and the Monthly Quest! And if one Pokemon counts for multiple tiers, you can pick which one you want it to count for!

Welcome to the SHC, Tarro! Good luck on your BadgeQuest!! Do you have any shinies from other games, or is this going to be the beginning of your many shinies?

"lol" it looks like the Curse has afflicted all of the others, and I'm the only one left! *hides behind Ghost shinies in hopes that the Curse will be afraid and not come after me*

shiny_torchic October 26th, 2015 2:07 AM

Hey there, my name is Katie and i resently became a shiny hunter

I have a shiny sceptile

I am hunting for a shiny torchic in pokemon alpha sapphire

EDIT: Forgot to mention that i resently began a badge quest on Pokemon AS, which is why I am hunting for a shiny torchic

Tarro57 October 26th, 2015 2:25 AM

Oops, I forgot to mention my other shinies, sorry! I have caught some before, my first being a Kricketune in my Platinum. Since then, I have gone on to catch many shiny Pokemon, notably each of the three swordsman in my black version, being my own shiny legends I've caught. Recently, I've gotten into horde and dexnav in my OR, in which I've caught about 18 within the past month. One story is of one night I was doing horde battles and encountered 3 shiny Wingulls within 10 minutes of each other. My last shiny was aTyrogue, and I'm currently hunting the first quarter that appears in my Soul Silver.

You know, hiding behind Ghosts is not a good plan, seeing as Ghost-type Curse is the only one that can actually deal damage to you and does so directly, eternally, and over time. Better find a Normal-type!

Nice Shiny collection! As for the musketeers, do you have a favourite Shiny in that group?

Haha, wow! I recently got two Shiny Zigzagoon within 10 DexNav encounters, so I know that sensation. What do you do with Shiny duplicates?

---

Nothing new in terms of Shiny Hunting on my part. I'm currently filling up my ORAS Pokédex after sending over the fully-evolved Pokémon from my Y's completed National Pokédex - building it to be a Living one, this time. Maybe some sparkles will show themselves in the process.

Good luck on your hunts, everyone!

Lrachelr5 October 26th, 2015 12:04 PM

So I just hatched a shiny Oshawott on the first attempt! How did this happen?! I am literally in shock.

Runasutaru October 26th, 2015 12:42 PM

@Lrachelr5: Congratulations on the Shiny Oshawott! Random number rolls will always be random, so that can happen. Were you only aiming for Shiny or were you looking for a specific nature/IVs/egg moves?

G-Money October 26th, 2015 12:54 PM

Welcome to the SHC! Congrats on the Sceptile and good luck getting shiny Torchic - I hope your Badge Quest is really fun!

Congrats on all those shinies! I don't know if I've ever heard of anyone getting all three swordsmen before; that's really cool! Especially since the B/W SRs take so long, haha.

Gah, good point! "lol" no wonder the Curse managed to take down all of the others; we've been using a terrible defensive strategy!! *hides behind shiny Taillow and hopes the Curse won't see*

Woah, that's awesome!!! On the very first egg?!!?! That's amazing, haha! Way to go!!

Lrachelr5 October 26th, 2015 1:21 PM

Yes the very first egg and the only shiny I have ever gotten that wasn't traded to me

No I wasn't, I was just re-breeding my Samurott because I wanted to start X again with the favourite members of the team I just used.

Runasutaru October 26th, 2015 1:56 PM

Quite the unexpected surprise, then! I hope your Shiny Oshawott makes the run a little brighter for you!

Lrachelr5 October 26th, 2015 2:16 PM

He already is! He is so cute and seeing him sparkle every time I send him out makes me smile all the time and he's adorable in Amie

Runasutaru October 26th, 2015 4:15 PM

Yep! Playing with a newly-obtained Shiny on Pokémon Amie is quite fun for me, too.

Side-note: You can fix the broken tag in your signature by simplifying it to the following: [center ][/center ]
Just remove the spaces.

Still in the process of turning my Y's full Pokédex into an actual Living Dex on AS (mostly breeding down from full-stage evolutions). Up to Johto; got a few holes in Kanto that I should be able to fix by checking Y again or grabbing some spares from the GTS.

Poké Bean October 26th, 2015 8:46 PM

Hello, Shiny Hunters! I would very much like to join your ranks!
I've only ever encountered and caught two Shiny Pokemon in the wild so far - a female and male Heracross! I have other Shinies but they're either from events, built in-game or by trade. (Rayquaza, Charizard, Metagross, Giratina, Dialga, Palkia, Dragonite, Haxorus, Gible, Gyarados, Pichu, Furfrou and Genesect) My current goals are to breed Shiny Water Starters and find a Shiny by chain fishing. I've never really fished much so this will give me an incentive! Hope to also catch some for the club quests!

Dragonite711 October 28th, 2015 6:32 AM

Hi my name is Joe and I have recently joined PC (yesterday) and I have just started hunting for my first shiny. I am very excited to dive into the world of shiny hunting!! If you have any tips all help is very much appreciated :)

LilyGardy October 28th, 2015 8:58 AM

Still no Shiny Staryu but the Water Gods have rewarded me with more Water Shinys.

Shiny Female Horsea (Clair) on X - Really like the teal colour here. Might leave it as a Horsea for a while as I already have a Shiny Kingdra.

Shiny Male Carvanha on Alpha Sapphire - Chain Fished for half an hour for this guy. Not sure if I like the Pea Green and Sky Blue colouring of the Shiny. Now a Shiny Sharpedo (I surprisingly quite like the Purple) and great fun to Surf on. Shiny Mega Sharpedo should really be Black though.

Fair enough, thought that might be the case! Currently done 2/7 tiers, others are close, the legends will be the toughest but I ave a plan! PS - I know there is a tier 8, but as there is no tier 5 it is 7 total tiers :)

1F)
1W)
2) Regigigas


Tier II:

3) Find a shiny Normal-type with one evolution. It must be able to learn an HM move!
4) Find a shiny Water-type!

3) Zigzagoon
4)

Tier III: The Forest!

5) Find a shiny Bug-type with three evolutionary stages!
6) Find another shiny Bug-type! This one can have as many or as few evolutions as you'd like.
7) Find a shiny Grass-type!

5) Wurmple
6)
7) Shroomish


Tier IV: The River!

8) Find a shiny Water-type!
9) Find a shiny Grass-type!
10) Find a shiny Ground-type!

8)
9)
10) Sandshrew



Tier VI Challenge: Find 5 shinies of the same type!

Poison -
1) NidoranM
2) NidoranM
3) Zubat
4) Golbat
5) NidoranF


Tier VII Challenge:

1) Find a shiny with a Mega Evolution!
2) Find a shiny that can evolve via Leaf, Water, or Fire Stone!
3) Find a shiny that can evolve via Sun, Dawn, or Dusk Stone!

1) Shuppet
2) Oddish 1
3) Oddish 2



Tier VIII Challenge:

1) Create a shiny legendary trio of three legendaries of different types or three legendaries of the same type!
2) Create a legendary duo of two legendary Dragon- or Flying-type shinies!


1)
2)

Tarro57 October 28th, 2015 1:26 PM

Decided to go back to Platinum and chain. Opened the file to see I was at Fuego Ironworks with a fainted Magnet Pull lead, so I went for the Magnemite. About 2 hours later, I broke my chain on a Magmar after catching 3 shiny Magnemites :) Might chain some Bidoof next. Can't wait to transfer them up :D


Edit: Decided to chain for a Budew for the Tier 1 challenge, ended up getting a patch at a chain of 8!!! It broke later due to aWurmple, but hey, I got one :)

Paulthagerous October 28th, 2015 1:35 PM

Just got an Aggron off GTS, and remembered I had a second event Beldum :)
