I found a shiny Lugia, Ho-Oh, Mew, Garadyos, and I forget the others.

Fithboy December 30th, 2010 8:36 AM

You used the soft reset technique, I presume?

RAWR ^_^ December 30th, 2010 9:40 AM

This is probably off topic, but I really hate how hard they made it to obtain Shiny Pokémon on HG/SS :| I mean really, without the Pokétch it's so much harder. I found out about the Masuda Method though and have just obtained a Japanese Ditto with damn good IVs so that is at least a comfort!

That and I just found out about the RNG abuse thing. Where's the fun in that!? That pretty much guarantees a shiny as when you want, at least with the masuda method the chance is only reduced and it's still down to luck.

Well I guess I can just chain on Platinum and trade them over.

Also, to make this OT...

I have a shiny Gyrados and a shiny Ekans.

Just encountered a shiny Golbat in SS in Victory Road. I was able to catch it in in one Fast ball. It was my first Shiny in the 2nd generation remakes :)

Is there any kind of technique to get a shiny in SS/HG? Ive never seen/caught one before and i want to try and i need some advice on how to go about it. Thanks.

Shiny Pidgey!

Oh how I am envious of you.

My first shiny was a shiny Floatzel in the safari zone, I was able to throw eight safai ball before it fled. That was my first ever ingame shiny besides Gyarados.

Try the foreign ditto masuda method technique. Increases chance of shiny quite a lot.

I got a shiny Bellsprout right before I entered the town for the first gym badge.

Were you SRing for it or was it random? How many Sr's if you were hunting it? Congrats BTW. I was trying for one, but gave up and got a shiny Moltres instead.

Found a shiny Rattata the other day.

pumpkinziggy January 9th, 2011 7:25 PM

In the middle of another shiny hunt on another game, I took a break to play HeartGold, and found a shiny Caterpie the day before my birthday. I had mixed feelings, though, because I really wanted that other shiny on that other game; when I first got the shiny Caterpie, I was angry at it, then I was happy about it about ten minutes later... and it kept switching like that. Coincidentally, just a moment before, I had been thinking about finding a shiny... That's the second time that that's happened to me.

I want to find a shiny on HG/SS that's better than just a Caterpie... xD
I should probably go evolve it now... Depends on whether I want to keep its name GoldnTime(Heart) or rename it Mizuki...

Hawkfire-the-cat January 20th, 2011 10:46 PM

Well, I just started a new game on HG recently, and I wanted to get an eevee of a specific nature/gender (female, sassy btw). Because I spent so long SR for it, I hoped it could be shiny, it wasn't though, so I left and started to grind.

While grinding, I thought it would be funny to bump into a random shiny after all that SRing and not getting one. I then bumped into a shiny pidgey! And it evolves into one of the most epic shinies ever...

Just snagged myself a shiny Yanma from Route 35. I was on my way to re-battle Arnie when I ran into it. It's my 4th total shiny in Soul Silver, the other 3 are Gyarados, Flygon, and Aggron

Steven January 31st, 2011 1:21 PM

After I got my Shiny Snivy on Saturday, I started to hunt in my Soul Silver.

I am breeding a secret Pokemon in Soul Silver through the Masuda Method. I hatched 210 eggs yesterday, I want to hatch 90 today.

I'm planning a shiny Dratini hunt, but atm I have a shiny Flygon, Alakazam, Shinx, Lucario, Phanpy, and Squirtle.

Zelda February 2nd, 2011 4:14 AM

I ran into a shiny Rattata the other day buut, here's the catch. I was pretty much multi-tasking with a chat on hand, eating a small snack and watching TV, while playing HG. XD; Not knowing one of the wild Rattata's I encountered was a shiny I killed it with one move and well, my reaction is self-explainable. I only found out it was shiny after I used the move too, so I guess I'll have to pay attention more for those random shinies. :(

Going through Ilex forest, a shiny oddish appears! Thankfully, I had a low level poke to lower it's hp. Too bad it was lonely in nature. :/

MysticFlygon February 3rd, 2011 1:48 PM

After doing 314 soft resets over the past week I got myself a shiny Squirtle from Prof. Oak.
