It finally happened! I captured my target of a shiny mincinno after hunting on and off in a friend's normal type safari since October. I ran into more than half a dozen shiny lillipup in this safari before meeting this little one. I captured her in a heal ball, which suits her pastel rose color scheme nicely I think. I named this new pokemon Pink Mink, the name of a beauty store in my area.
https://i.postimg.cc/pLtnYHq4/IMG-20210116-074244883.jpg I'll keep some of the shiny lillipup even though it wasn't what I was looking for, a shiny is still a shiny. However, I have so many that I can spare some shiny lillipup if anyone wants one. I caught enough to have myself a shiny from each stage of the lillipup evolutionary line, and still have 3 or 4 leftover to give away. If anyone has the capacity for a 3ds trade and is interested let me know. They are mostly adamant nature because I was synchronizing at the time. Incidentally, I wasn't using synchronize when I caught Mincinnio at long last. On that occasion I had a male jigglypuff with cute charm leading the party. It may have been a fluke. While I know the overworld effect of cute charm makes pokemon 2-3 times more likely to be the opposite gender of the user, I am not sure exactly how this ability works on Pokemon like mincinnio that already have higher odds of being one gender-- I.e 75% are female. It couldn't have hurt though. |
10 years!!!!!!!!!!
It's been 10 years since I joined the SHC, and I couldn't be happier!! Joining PC's coolest club was definitely the best decision of my life, and I've had an absolute blast so far - here's to 10 more fantastically spectacular years of shiny hunting!!! :boogie: In my very first post back on January 26th, 2011, I included the following list: Quote:
Spoiler:
Wait, what's that last one? I don't remember a shiny Smoochum in there... OMG Shiny SMOOCHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another swarm shiny!! I found Smooch at 11:50 AM on August 29th, 2020. I would've never known that it was shiny, but when I looked down to check my DS, I saw the last corner of sparkles dissipating! "lol" I was so shocked to see those stars, since I couldn't tell that the Smoochum was different from all the others I'd encountered, haha. I got so lucky that I looked down in time to see the stars!!! The thing was a toughie to capture, taking 15 Heal Balls! I only had 17 on me, so it was quite serendipitous that Smooch relented when it did, haha! It shone on encounter #6612 of my Pearl swarm hunt! I named her Brrigette, a combination of "Brrr!" and frigid, since, y'know, it's an Ice-type Pokémon... *hears nickname masters icycatelf and the Alolan naturalist groaning from across oceans and continents* Spoiler:
"lol" so I caught shiny Smooch back in August and saved the above couple of paragraphs as a draft, but I forgot to post it!! :laugh: This latest capture brings my grand total to... *drumroll* 91 shinies!!! We know what the next goal is: onward to 100!! :pink_boogie: Congrats to everyone on your recent shinies, welcome to all the new members, and may we all continue stupendous shiny adventures over the next decade!! |
Hi, I'm Nick. Am new here (on the fourms) and was hoping to join so here's my first post.
in the mainline games the shinies I have are: Gyarados (in soulsilver from the lake of rage) And Zubat (also in soulsilver, Caught via random encounters at 374 encounters, the night before my birthday as well making it feel quite special) Am currently hunting bellsprout in soul silver (random encounters) Hoot hoot in soul silver (random encounters) and charmander in leaf green (soft resetting) I also have 38 shinies in pokemon go but am only gunna update on mainline shinies here. |
Over my last few hunts only, I started counting my encounters but I have gotten quite a few over the years, I'll try to catalog all of them here though. I am not counting gift Pokemon either.
Sapphire: Marill In Pokemon Y: Bergmite, Absol, Boldore, Feraligatr, Murkrow. ORAS: Zubat In USUM: Buizel, Tyranitar (I didn't play much because Gen 7 was ass) In Shield (This is where my shinies have popped off, my luck has been nasty): Nidoking (first encounter in Crown Tundra), Stufful. Next section are max raid battles: Lycanroc Midday, Dusclops, Mr. Mime. The rest are from hatching and the first section are approximations within 5 eggs and the second section are exacts eggs. Impidimp-74, Rotom-28, Rookidee-38, Charmander-25 and now the exact counts, Mareanie-13, Hawlucha-64, Honedge-356, Zigzagoon-105. If I think of any more I will add them too. My current hunt is Magikarp at 360 eggs hatched using Shiny Charm and Masuda method. |

Been a while since I posted but recently completed some very fun hunts for the lunar year of the Ox and for Valentine's day.
The Oxen are Roquefort the miltank (Masuda method+ SC, slightly under odds), Colorado the Bouffalant (898 Dexnav, no SC), and Big Bos the Tauros (also Masuda+SC, some 200 eggs) The Pink crew were caught in the FS with no SC (Rhoda the wobbuffet, Felix the espurr, Sakura the pachirisu), with SOS+SC (Tamarin the aipom, Alexandria the flaaffy, Mimosa the oricorio and Prima Donna the smoochum) and Island scan (Sun Wukong the monferno) Also shout out to @visionsofmilotic who's been a great trading buddy for friend safari duplicates :) |
Just got a shiny Dratini after 377 eggs, Unfortunately, it is only 4iv with Shed Skin so I have some work to do to make it competitively viable. Super stoked to get it though, was about 3 days of pretty consistent hatching, those pseudos... 🙄

I'd been bouncing between a few Shiny hunts, but I decided to focus on Luxio after a thread earlier this month reminded me of just how happy Luxio makes me. Got my full-odds golden boy today (caught as Shinx)! :D
https://i.imgur.com/nqZHUv9.jpg I'm not going to evolve him into Luxray. Nothing against Luxray, Luxio just makes me happier! Updated Gen. IV team: https://i.imgur.com/lpibZR7.jpg |

I love how hgss goes the extra mile and the overworld sprites of the Pokemon following you stay true to their shiny form. You all look marvellous posing for your picture! |
Hey, I'm back after a pretty long hiatus, and I'm currently doing a shiny-only run of Shield. :) So far I've gotten a Wooloo after roughly 1553 encounters, and now I'm hunting for Chewtle and Blipbug at the same time.

Happy St Patrick's day
Dexnav and Friend Safari hunts without a shiny charm from the past 3 weeks Named them (clockwise) Bronze, Cineta, Disco, Florian, Rathaniel, Tawali, Denisova and Mizuna |
Hullo!
It's being a while but still hunting strong, well I started again after a break. Currently hunting in SW&SH for a wooloo. Will be posting shinies when I get them. Glad seeing the club is still running smooth & congrats on the club award!!! @G-Money Congrats on the 10 years dude, what an acomplishement and look at all those shinies :O |
Does anyone know shinyrates for dexnaving without shiny charm?
Originally I thought dexnaving was 1/512 regardless of chain and search level. But I’ve heard that shinyrate increases once you have a search level of 999. I like to use the search level as a counter so when a hunt goes over 999 I save it at 989, then reset game when I do 10 encounters. It saves repels as well. But I’m starting to think my odds are currently 1/4096 lol. Partly because the search level is under 999 and also because of the resetting the game. |

Consider using your Repels as counters? Or just try to keep track in your head. I personally tend to keep count by playing Saria's Song (Zelda OOT) in my head. (One-one-one One-one-one One-one-one, Two-two-two Two-two-two Three-three-three, and so on.) |
My shinies for the last couple of weeks in SW&SH!
Hunting dewpider & cubchoo atm, wish me luck!! & SHINY VIBES TO ALL!!! https://i.imgur.com/iAm0nPx.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4JPVviP.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4jUyTj8.jpg https://i.imgur.com/WXWMQLm.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wlk1dmE.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZTpcEB3.jpg |
Hit kind of a dry spell here. Still grinding tho.
Sending shiny vibes to all!! 😄 |
Caught a shiny female Pangoro in Shield after joining a random raid.
In Gigantamax form it's hard to tell if it's shiny but I do like the brown fur and red hands the shiny form has. It was caught in a repeat ball. |
Today shiny Gothita showed up at 1,445 dexnav encounters. My next hunt is Elgyem. But it can have Teleport and Simple Beam :/
|
Got them shinies today ^^
Dewpider finally shined & drifloon showed up around 30ish encounters. The bewear is from a while ago, but I didn't show it off yet ^^ congrats on them shinies guys and *shiny vibes* to all!!!!!!!! https://i.imgur.com/BFMDiK0.jpg https://i.imgur.com/UbxvD0s.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Gzi5Y8I.jpg |
SHINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUBONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Shiny Cubone!!! What a cool shiny for a Ghost hunter, hahahaha! :laugh-squinted: I've been hunting the daily Swarm Pokémon in Pearl, and last Saturday's was Cubone on Route 203! At around 9:47 PM on May 8th, 2021, I looked down at my DS and saw the swirling stars!! I'm glad I caught them, since I probably wouldn't have noticed otherwise! Cubone's purplish shade is a pretty subtle change from regular Cubone, so the stars really saved me, haha! It looked absolutely dope in the dark of night! (btw the time-of-day differences in GenIV are absolutely dope...it's like a totally different region at the different times of day! And they're all amazingly cool!!!) Cubone shone on encounter #8675 of my Swarm hunt, and I caught him on the first Dusk Ball attempt! I named him Fysdimor, a stylized spelling of the phonetically identical Fils de Mort, which is French for "Son of Death." :pink_laugh: Spoiler:

I’m not 100% certain but it seems that Simple Beam is always in the first slot and thus Teleport, the egg move, also takes the first slot overriding the learned attack. Phew so it can’t have both attacks at the same time from my understanding. Unlike Ralts which can have Momento and Teleport 🤣
With that one I actually bred Kirlia with Muk so I could have one with Momento and Imprison. Switched Muk with Misdreavus to get a Misdreavus with Perish Song and Imprison before hunting Lapras in friend safari. |

First post here. Just wrapped up my shiny Love Ball Jangmo-o breeding. 1800 eggs for 3 of them so I that I could have all stages shiny ^.^ Sheesh Dragon eggs take so long to hatch T^T
My 3rd one to hatch: Spoiler:
Also, yesterday, I accidentally bumped into a random stufful while hatching eggs and got this: Spoiler:
A Pokemon Camp image with all 3 Jangmo-o stages: Spoiler:
2 Pokemon Camp images with the Shiny stufful, as well as feebas & Milotic (my previous shiny breed before jangmo-o was a love ball & level ball Feebas): Spoiler:
I haven't yet compiled a list of shinies I own. I'll include that in my next post if that's not a problem. Edit: put a link in my signature to what shinies I have. The bred page images seem to bug out and require you to click a diff page after clicking on it, and then going back to it to properly align. |
Hello! Wanted to ask a question of experienced shiny hunters - where there is a choice, for Legendary Pokemon would you recommend soft resetting Ultra Wormholes in USUM, or repeating Dynamax Adventures? I'm wondering if the 1/100 chance is really less time consuming when you have to go through the entire thing beforehand, as opposed to just resetting over and over with significantly higher odds. Would be interested to hear some thoughts :3
