An average 10 hours for a Shiny Legendary is not bad considering how long it can take. I am not big on Legendary Pokémon in general but do have a Shiny Kyogre that I obtained in a trade. :)

My Shiny Progress - My X game has gone Shiny Crazy:
[/spoiler]

Wow, that is a lot of new shinies! I got a few from the GTS a couple weeks back. Some really good deals out there :)

Poké Bean November 20th, 2015 7:53 PM

Wow, some nice Shinies you've been catching guys!

That's good to know about the SR, thanks for reassuring me, I may just give it a go now!

Edit: You know the Yearly Quest on the first page, can they be caught by any method?

Leòmhann teine November 21st, 2015 12:59 AM

I haven't updated my sig yet for the new shiny Weedle I found in fire red (no I was not cheating it was literaly a random encounter and I wasn't even huntinf for one I was grinding my pokemon to fight brock). Rapidash(first shiny and best imo), Bibarel (ironically I found it breaking a chain in platinum lol), Linoone (random in emerald), Spinda (same as Linoone I must have really good luck in earlier gens), and then that Weedle which I can post a pic of if you want. I am currently hunting a shiny Arbok for a solo challenge in x but I don't have the means to do mesuada method any chance I can borrow foreign arboks with a nature that lowers hp and raises atk (don't have them memorized) in order to breed a shiny ekans for the challenge?

Yeah, AFAIK SRing is pretty safe. If your DS dies it is mor likely to have just gotten worn out than be because of the SRing itself!

Chaining and Friend Safari aren't allowed AFAIK

Nice shiny list! I have a foreign Ekans, but wrong nature. You might want to mention if you want a male/female/don't care

LilyGardy November 21st, 2015 1:45 PM

More Shiny finds


X Profile - Stephanie
Spoiler:

Shiny Female Pichu - Found on the GTS. I like the colouring here and will leave her as a Pichu. I now have Shiny Forms of the entire Pikachu line.

Shiny Female Oddish - Found on the GTS for a mere Cascoon. Now a Violet Bellossom. One of my favourite Pokemon.

Shiny Male Turtwig - GTS for a Moltres. A nice Shiny and another Starter. :)

Shiny Female Corsola (Bluegrass) - A beautiful Shiny. I really like the blue. Found just outside Shalour City.

Shiny Female Qwilfish (Valeria) - Took a long chain to get on Kalos Route 8. The Magenta is a big contrast for Qwilfish.

Also caught whilst chain fishing -

Shiny Male Gyarados (Leviathan) - Might EV train this one. He has a Lonely Nature.

Shiny Female Clawitzer (Joanne) - Caught on Kalos Route 8 on a Chain of just 6. My third Shiny Clawitzer.


Alpha Sapphire - Helena
Spoiler:


Shiny Male Wailmer (Winston) - Caught in Lilycove City after about 20 casts. The Magenta doesn't really work for me but I plan to evolve him into Wailord.

Shiny Male Sharpedo (Archer) - On the Route where Feebas can be found on only 7 casts. Has an Adamant nature and a great catch.

Shiny Female Feebas (Phoebe) - Having pulled two Shiny Male Feebas I finally found a female one. She is now a Milotic and will be used in Contests and I may EV train her. Milotic is my favourite Water Shiny and I am very pleased to finally have a female Shiny Milotic. :)


Next Hunt - Dexnav Misdreavus in Alpha Sapphire

Thanks! I just need one of them with adamant nature and unless ditto can be used for mesuada then I need 1 male and 1 female. If I could borrow it to breed a shiny that would be nice I'll return it I promise.

I can do it right now but it'll have to be quick.

Paulthagerous November 21st, 2015 3:57 PM

I can in 15 mins or so. Hope that will work :)

Kitrigar November 21st, 2015 7:22 PM

Wow! Back from a long hiatus.
Haven't updated my findings here in awhile so I'll start now~

I bought yet another copy of Pokemon X because I didn't feel like restarting my other ORAS/XY files for soft resetting starters/legendaries/etc.

ANYWHO. I managed to soft reset myself a Shiny Fennekin!


It only took a few hours total, but it was totally worth it.

Nice shiny Fenic is awesome in that blue! So far no luck with my shiny Ekans but I have only hatched like the first 5 eggs. They all have intimidate and adamant though so to WT I go!

So last night my drought has finally ended. I have hatched a shiny beldum, 4iv.

Nice! And they have a high step count so must have been slow going!


Anyway, managed to snag my 5th legendary for the month:


LilyGardy November 22nd, 2015 5:08 PM

Some nice Shinys everyone has been finding. :)

My new Shinys

Alpha Sapphire - Helena

Shiny Male Barboach (Moby) - Found by Chain Fishing in Mt Meteor. Now a Shiny Whiscash. Not a great Shiny in truth but one for the Dex.

X - Stephanie

Two Male Remoraid - Found whilst looking for Clamperl near Shalour City.

Shiny Male Gulpin (Jacques) - Found by DexNaving Skiddo. I ran into the wrong part of Grass breaking my chain but the little blue blob was waiting there. Caught with a Great Ball and now a Swalot. I really like the colouring here. Great Shiny. :)

Poké Bean November 24th, 2015 9:44 AM

Yay!

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll11/Spoony6205/image.jpg1_zpsjqwygbj9.jpg

Also caught another Wailmer which I'm going to evolve into Wailord and a Carvanah. I wanted a shiny Sharpedo because they look really cool but was actually shocked when shiny Carvanah appeared, must not have seen one before because wasn't expecting those colours!

Nice! I never seem to have any luck with finding shinies in hordes. I seem to have more luck with SR's and breeding. xD

I reaally like the blue on Swalot for some reason. :o

Thanks! I've always wanted to be able to get a shiny starter in X/Y since I've never actually tried.
And also congrats on your Heatran!

Congratulations on your first horde Shiny. Spinda is a very unique Shiny to have due to the numerous Spot variations.

Pokémon with Gender differences (Such as Milotic and Cacturne) are also good for that reason but not as unique as Spinda.

Carvanha is indeed a much different Shiny to his original colour scheme. His evolved form Sharpedo (I have 2 Shiny Males) is one of the few Pokemon that can pull off Magenta. :)

Congratulations on your Shiny Starter. I have a Shiny Fennekin but mine was from a trade.

My reaction to Shiny Gulpin was unusual...

Ah, It's Gulpin...wait it's blue. Yay!

Shiny Swalot is indeed a nice Shiny it reminds me of the blue Ghost from Pac-Man.

Nice, I really like my spinda :)

So I went back through my Y and realised that I could use 2 Wingulls and a Weepinbell I got from hordes earlier this year towards the yearly quest. Not sure why I thought they were last year, but that's OK.

That leaves me 2 more required for the yearly quest - another bug and a 3 stage water. So I was rushing through the Delta Episode and surfing to Rayquaza and BOOM - shiny tentacool! Pretty happy, though a 3 stager would have been even better :)

So now, going to try and Masuda the last 2 I need - a Caterpie and a Maril are what I am going for!


LilyGardy November 29th, 2015 12:47 PM

I tried DexNaving for a Shiny Petilil on one of the Mirage Islands.

I had two lengthy streaks of about 70 and one of about 140. No Shiny. I took a break...

Then went back looking for a Petilil with Egg Move Healing Wish. 2 Dexnav Encounters in and a search level of 216:
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/8/88/Spr_6x_548_s.png

I named her Jessica (After my Unova Grass Monotype Petilil). She has a Jolly Nature. I have evolved her into a Lilligant, maxed her Affection Stat and have won all the Hoenn Contests with her.

I now have my favourite Grass-type in Shiny Form. :)

Next Hunt - Cottonee in Alpha Sapphire

Wow, shiny Tentacool looks really good! White's pretty rare isn't it?

LilyGardy November 30th, 2015 1:26 PM

http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/d/de/Spr_5b_546_s.png
Yes! Yes! Yes!

It took 426 encounters to get this one and a current streak of around 130.

She is Level 12 with a Naive nature and Prankster ability. I have named her Belle as the Evolved form Whimsicott reminds me of a Southern Belle. :)

I really like the way this Shiny looks the orange and green go together really well. I plan to evolve it into Whimsicott once it has learnt the required moves and I find a Sun Stone.

I plan to use her in Contests.

Next Hunt - Misdreavus on Route 114.

To me it looks more lilac, but an uncommon color regardless. Not sure if I want to evolve it or not....

With my 2 Masuda hunts, I was a little surprised that Maril popped up on egg #91 (though I did a LOT of Maril eggs back in May, so if you count those it took a little longer :



And while I was continuing on OR with the Caterpie hunt, on AS I was wondertrading off my marils and someone sent me this (presumably hacked) shiny with an interesting name...

Big question is: if you do get a shiny one, which eevelution do you go for? Or leave it as is?

It depends on the nature of it so we shall see ;)

LilyGardy November 30th, 2015 11:35 PM

http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/9/9d/Spr_6x_200_s.png
Got it! :)

Got her on a Dexnav encounter level of 176 with a streak of about 50. Caught her in a Critical Capture Quick Ball.

I have named her Esmeralda. She has a Hardy Nature and Curse.

During the chain I was encountering far more male Misdreavus than female. I am very pleased to get a female as for me Misdreavus is a feminine looking Pokemon.

I love the Green and Orange on this Shiny. I am not sure of the Green Shade on Mismagius' shiny. I may leave Esmeralda as a Misdreavus.

I now have my favourite Ghost Type in Shiny Form.

Next Hunt - Buneary in The Safari Zone.
