I'll ignore the character bypass this once, but don't do it again as that's against the rules. =p

Anyways, I suggest seeing if you gt any more shiny Pokemon from your walker then and posting if you do get any more - it would be interesting if that coding can be confirmed or not after all. After all, a 1 in 32 chance for shiny Pokemon from the walker is something you should try to take advantage of. ;p

Character bypass? What is it?

I was playing my DS on the train. Randomly walking through some grass, as you do, and then one of these guys appears:

BOOM!

I wanted to yell it out, but I was on public transport so... >w< It's got a spot on my team for the time being, I called yer MapleFace xD

Shiny Gardevoir November 19th, 2010 2:35 PM

Nohr November 19th, 2010 2:59 PM

Not my first, but some of my favourites are...

Charizard, Umbreon, and Shuckle, haha :D

Natester November 19th, 2010 3:12 PM

I just got my first real shiny in my heart gold version. While I was ev-training my Eruption heatran on the lake on route 35, I encountered a shiny psyduck. I caught it with a quick ball.

thedestinedblade November 19th, 2010 8:38 PM

Just caught a shiny Oddish not too far into my new file in SS. Was looking for a Paras in the Ilex forest actually. Not sure if I wanna evolve into a Bellossom or Vileplume. :D

eevee203 November 21st, 2010 4:27 PM

How many shinies have you caught/seen so far? I've seen 1 in my Japanese HeartGold, it was a Zubat. Evolved it to Golbat, then to Crobat and it is now lvl. 72. http://pokemondb.net/static/sprites/heartgold-soulsilver/shiny/zubat-m.png >http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/75/Spr_4h_042_m_s.png >http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/3/37/Spr_4d_169_s.png

Well, we already have an active Shiny Pokmon discussion thread, so I've merged your thread with that one.

And hurrah for Pink crobat. =D

Nudge November 23rd, 2010 4:07 PM

I decided to play my sisters SS this morning (first time I've played Pokemon in a month or 2) because I was bored haha but anyways, I caught a Shiny Teddiursa inside Mt. Silver within like 2 mins of entering :D

Double BOOM! :D

I was looking for a Mantine, but found something even more precious >:D I won't be using him in the team though ^^' He's a collectable.

chiperoo December 1st, 2010 9:31 PM

I was trying to hatch a female Snorunt for someone & since I had a Froslass in the day care center I figured out of 2 eggs one was bound to be female, so I got my 2 eggs and went to go hatch them. Low and behold the 2nd egg is female AND SHINY! I CANT BELIEVE I HATCHED A SHINY ON MY 2ND EGG. I have been trying forever to hatch a shiny Vulpix. I've gone through idk how many eggs and I get a diff shiny when I dont even try -_- I'm still excited. This is the first shiny I've ever hatched!

slyViper December 8th, 2010 10:26 AM

ARGH!
 
Ok, I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but I have been quite frustrated as far as shinys are concerned. I have logged well 600+ hrs in my pokemon hg and I have yet to EVER see one. The only way I have ever obtained one was people making them for me. I want to make sure I'm not completely insane about this, but is it normal that I haven't seen a shiny yet? Also, I've tried to do the breed method. I've been breeding pokemon an easy 500+hrs of the 600+ with a Japanese Ditto and my pokes and have yet to ever seen one that way either. Am I just unlucky? Or just impatient, because my patience about it is wearing thin T_T

your unlucky and impatient...a combo.....they seem to wanna appear when you least expect it! ....so keep tryin your day will come to have an original shiny!

...but then again i caught three shinies in less than 4oo hours of gameplay so maybe i shouldn't be talkin...im pretty lucky

Zapdogre December 8th, 2010 12:28 PM

caught the red Gyarados, obviously, and I kept resetting my game so I could have a shiny Lugia, it worked! I also got a shiny Ratatta, which I raised to level 100 and EV trained XD

Tumalaz December 8th, 2010 12:58 PM

I have two on my HeartGold, a Shiny Manectric and a Shiny Crobat, but both are traded in from a friend of mine who quit playing his Platinum.

Gonna soft reset for a shiny Kyogre though

dragoniteuser December 8th, 2010 1:03 PM

So far, i've caught a Shiny Sentret, Headbutted shiny Pineco, and found a Shiny tentacruel aswell!
i'd say i'm pretty lucky!

Same story here...given how many of those hours were spent running around in the grass EV training various pokemon, I'm actually surprised I haven't found any shinies at all.

Given my luck, I'll end up running into a shiny Graveller who will promptly Selfdestruct before I can throw a ball at it. D:

slyViper December 8th, 2010 2:22 PM

Can you guys rub your luck off on me, it's been very sad for me TuT I got my GF and I got HG and SS as a birthday present for her and me and she found a shiny weedle 16 minutes into game play ^^;; so yeah I'm being incredibly patient, I'm just trying to figure out why variables aren't working in my favor. As much as I want to blame my game =P I know I can't, it really all comes down to luck. All I have to say is whenever that little sucker shows up, I have my master ball I've been saving the whole game, for the one moment that shiny pokes its head out to catch and raise it all the way to the top!
