Ooh, a shiny Zorua would be very cool indeed, hope you catch one soon!
I'm currently SRing for a shiny Mudkip in Omega Ruby, it's the first time I've had the patience to try this method! Hope it pays off! |

What other shinies do you have? Quote:

Well my Pokébank is full of them from trades, but I haven't really caught many for myself, only around 10 of them >_>

You can do it, Obsideon!! *sends luck, channeling all of the vibes from DarkTorchic, including the ones stolen to finish the Nincada hunt*

I have a ☆Xerneas and a ☆ Ho-oh and a ☆ Linnone. I am looking for a foreign (non english) Female Kirlia. I can provide any of my Poke'mon with a masterball. A ☆Lilligant is also on my hands

Hi everyone and Happy New Year
Hope you all had lots of fun with family and friends also congrats on all shinies Quote:
The challenges are awesome, I'm going to start with team flying one for now. Congrats on tailow and King nincada Cya around everyone and happy hunting. |
So I was doing the new years challenge and was playing soul silver. I caught the shiny Gyarados and wondered if it counted at all? It wasn't easy to catch it fainted half my team before I caught it but the catch doesn't matter the finding part is what counts and finding it was to easy so I can't really tell if it should count and add it to my sigs list of shinies. Should I? P.S. Who else thinks red Gyarados looks freaking awesome?

Given it is the single easiest shiny to get, I doubt it would count. I think that if chain/friend safari Pokemon are banned then Red Gyarados being banned is kind of implied. I'm sure G-Money will let you know if I am wrong though! @G-Money One question I do have - can we use double ups? For a full grass team, could we use 6 Bellsprouts, or 3 (as Bell, Weep and Vict), or just 1 from the family? |
So since I was playing soul silver for a challenge I thought I might as well try and snag a shiny lugia and I have found out that sring is way faster on an emulator that has the speed up function! I am now at around 70 something srs in around half an hour!
|
Finally caught my first shiny of the year! A Zubat via Horde Encounter in AS. Was trying for Aron but I'll happily take it!
Over 30 hours of SRing for shiny Mudkip in OR but no luck yet. Hope I've been doing it right! I saved in front of the bag after he asks for help, is that ok? I was thinking about Ducklett/Swanna and how their shiny colour should really be black, are there any Pokemon that you think should be a different colour or wish that it was? |
Congrats on the Shiny Zubat! - I still need to try Horde hunting! I've heard it has a high success rate.
I have always thought that Pikachu should of been a much different colour shiny, I sorta wish it looked abit like this: Spoiler:

Congrats on zubat and yes, you are doing ok with mudkip, i got mine that way too last year. Also, I once thought that pikachu was White when i was in my early days of shiny hunting. Quote:
nice image, did you make it? From my side I'm trying to find a shiny zigzagoon with pick up for my OR. |
Nah I didn't - I wish I was talented enough to produce art like that ^_^

@G-Money
Congrats on the Boss nincada, finally the hunt is over. Must feel weird not hunting for it anymore right? :) Congrats on the other bodyguards you caught along the way. ^^ --- Welcome to the new members & everyone else on their shinies! WOOOO!!! *sending shiny vibes* ----- I myself am halfway done on one of my 2016 quest teams whoop whoop ^^ 3 shinies 2 days... the reveal which shinies I got will come tomorrow :P UPDATE Wait did I say halfway through, I meant I got 4/6 on my first 2016 quest team Whooooopppp ^^ ^^ That sparkle high |
1000 Route 110 encounters
I'm hunting on the Gulpin route beneath Cycling Road in Emerald now, just looking for some fun shinies before my game turns off. I don't have any of the shinies from this route, so I'd be thrilled to get any of them! The first time I saw a Plusle, I thought it was a shiny Minun, "lol." I'd also like to officially retire Latios Master, placing his name triumphantly on the SHC facade with the other all-time greats. One of the greatest shiny hunters of all time, Latios Master had posts spanning 11 years (!!!!!!!!!!!) in this club, having a post on the very first page back in 2004 and still being an awesome shiny hunter in 2015! May he one day find that shiny Litwick!! *puts statue of a giant shiny Latios in SHC courtyard* Spoiler:
|
Ok I don't really want to count the red Gyarados seeing as it is a free shiny and mostly I wasn't talking about the yearly quest never thought it would count I was mostly talking about adding it to my signature list of shiny Pokemon. And crap I really liked doing the speed SRs but I really want a shiny Lugia, for yearly so I will stop. Will it count if I stop or will it not cause I speed SRed the first 200+? Yeah I hit that last night.
|
Phew! Good to know I've not been wasting my time! I'll keep at it! Got Aron today too, those eyes are so cool!
I agree about shinies that are strikingly different being the best, Pikachu is so disappointing! Congrats everyone on your hunts! ^^ |
I have Zigzagoon and Poochyena yeah, that's cool --'
|
Around 40 hours of SRing and...
Spoiler:
I am a very happy Spoony indeed! ^^ |
Congrats on your pink Mudkip! ^_^

2016 Route 110 encounters
777 Fiery Path/Route 112 encounters I hunted for a shiny Numel for a little bit on Route 112, but then I switched over to Fiery Path, as it has a better array of Axiom 22 targets. Torkoal is totally awesome, and I actually wouldn't mind a shiny Koffing either. I've always thought that Koffing was a pretty lame Pokemon, but its Emerald sprite is terrific and it looks really cool when I'm battling it, haha. The shiny colors are awesome too, so I'd be really happy getting any of Numel, Torkoal, or Koffing, "lol." I totally didn't notice that I had a Static Manectric at the front of my party this whole time, which I had been using in case one of the Route 116 Pokemon physically attacked. I had been thinking of using it to induce paralysis when I'm trying to catch a shiny, but I totally forgot about its out-of-battle effect! So despite having done 2016 encounters on Route 110, I have no idea what Pokemon are common there and whatnot, since I'd been pretty much seeing only Electrike and Minun, haha. I don't know whether I'm going to keep Static going when I get back there, since Electrike is one of the coolest shinies from that route anyway. I've also taken the Path of the Dragon status out of my signature. I'm not abandoning it!!! I'm just focusing on my Ghost Quest right now (well, kind of, "lol") and I'll probs do the Starter Quest after that, so I won't be getting to Rayquaza anytime soon. Besides, I might do a Badge Quest on HG, so my 2/7 would be misleading - I'd need more than twice that many shinies! Spoiler:
And where did the underlines under our names go!? :pink_confused: |
Well crap I can only hunt for shiny pokemon on X, Black, Platinum, and Emerald then cause those are the only games I have in a cartridge at the moment. (If I could download a rom of say ss/hg, bw2 or any of the gba games in to a cartridge for 3ds and ds lite would that not count either?) Guess I will have to go without a shiny lugia for quest unless I can find my missing soul silver game.
|
@G-Money - I figured double ups would be OK. Not aiming for a million Zubat/Golbats but given some of my targets I am sure I will get some doubles....
First hunt for the year: Hoen Route 113 - Skarmory 300 Hordes/1500 Pokemon seen: 0 shinies PS - I am using Pokemon with Magnet Pull in the lead slot, so reasonable odds of a Skarmory. Bet I get a few Spindas first though.. Edit - just noticed you mentioned that Latios Master is no longer here. Sad day indeed! |
What does Static and Magnet Pull do?
I'm definitely gonna use Mudkip on my OR Shiny Badge Quest but he's so cute I'm not sure if I can bring myself to evolve him! Good luck for everyone's current hunts! |
