I've just encountered a Shiny Audino :D it's my first shiney ever , plus , it looks insanely nice :)

Boarbeque May 21st, 2011 1:20 PM

Emboar's shiny is my favorite. Gotta love a blue beard of fire.

Druddigon's shiny is my least favorite. It just looks horrible in my honest opinion.

Just noticed Victini - I hope you know that you can't actually obtain a shiny Victini in the games and that the only way is through ARing, right?

インフェルノの津波 May 22nd, 2011 5:41 AM

I know that, c'mon.

It's just that I like how it looks!

boktor666 June 8th, 2011 6:42 AM

Sweet appearance
 
So today, I was looking around for a pokemon to add to my dex and team for online. Was looking around for 30 minutes or so, and then it happend.. Solosis popped out, the one i was looking for! BUT it was even better! it was a shiny! this made my day so much.

Caught it with luxury ball

But not only is that the only awesome shizzle, its got magic guard as ability! Although im doubting about its nature, Naive, it is like awesome sauce.

But i would like your thoughts on the nature?

Oh and what was your first shiny ever?

Firstly, congrats on finding it! Buuuttt... this doesn't need its own thread, so I merged this with shiny discussion. Plus, your first shiny ever would belong in Pokemon Gaming Central, but this already seems to be covered by the following thread [ here. ]

Hehe, i know, i missed the topic, i found it right after posting it -_- sorry

Flashmeteor June 8th, 2011 1:03 PM

I'm currenting hunting a shiny Munna to evolve into a Shiny Musharna..

OH HOW BAD I WANT ONE! O:<

Molts June 8th, 2011 1:20 PM

Few days ago I saw a shiny litwik, the first ever shiny I've ever seen in the decade of playing these games. And I killed it on accident... there was much sadness that day...

:'( That's so sad... I think you need a taco.

I happen to currently be breeding for a shiny Litwick... or, at least I was. I'm taking an extended break so that I may play through SS. Before my break though, I had no luck...

I own three shinies... two were from trades and one was because I got really lucky in Emerald... I hope I find some good shinies soon... (like Solosis :3)

Rooke June 8th, 2011 1:27 PM

Good luck with your Litwick breeding, Nakuzami. A few weeks ago I hatched the shiny Litwick I was breeding for, so I know how annoying it is. Stick with it, and I'm sure it'll happen quickly. ^^;

Hooh June 8th, 2011 8:18 PM

Welp, SR'ing Cobalion, and RE'ing for Tranquill and Mandibuzz on black, I plan to Masuda Archen after these hunts are done. That also really sucks, Molts. Shiny Chandelure is awesome, maybe you should (if you have enough time) go hunting for a shiny Litwick?

PiemasterUK June 8th, 2011 10:27 PM

When you encounter a shiny is it pretty obvious, or are they easily missed for the untrained eye? I don't *think* I've seen any yet, but I can't be sure...

Shinies for MOST pokemon are very obvious, some are a slightly less. ALL shinies play a sound effect, and show pretty sparkle shiny effect when the battle starts as well.

Nakuzami, thanks for the kindness, I wish you luck in your breeding, I own 2 shinies, both from trades. Though one of my shinies is was traded... rather oddly.

I was perusing the GTS, and I found a lvl 100 mantine shiny, and the person wanted a lvl 9 or lower espeon. I was freaking out, so I spent all day finding an eevee in my older games, trading it over, breeding it to get a freshly hatched eevee, then grinding the battle subway for like 3 hours. I don't have a very good team in my white game at the time (still don't actually) so getting enough BP to buy enough vitamins to max happiness without leveling up the eevee was hard. XD I successfully did it, finally getting a lvl 4 espeon, and trading for the lvl 100 mantine, maxed EV's possibly IV's, shiny over the GTS.

Thats why you should always check out the GTS once a while. XD


Hooh54, how does one go "shiny hunting"? I've been playing for close to 12 years, and that litwik was the first ever shiny I've seen in my life. The odds are against me for finding another. >.<

Cerious June 9th, 2011 11:18 AM

I've found two so far, a shellder and a tympole. Traded both, accidentally underestimated the value of the tympole-- live and learn...

Azumi June 9th, 2011 3:40 PM

I'm thinking of evolving my shiny Larvesta, because I just found out that Volcarona also has Flame Body, which helps with my breeding. I'm not a good judge of appearance, so do you think I should evolve it, or just leave it as a Larvesta?

Katja June 9th, 2011 3:43 PM

I've never found a shiny in game yet. T_T Out of all the Pokemon games since...There were shinies.

Nakuzami June 9th, 2011 4:01 PM

@Molts & Katja - Really (what about Red Gyarados?)? I've seen plenty of shinies, but luck is always against me. A few were in Silver, where, not only could I not save, there was no way to transfer them over. Another was my Mightyena, which I found as a level 13 Poochyena, and I saw a shiny Lickitung once, but it was in the Safari Zone, so you can guess what happened... :'(

I haven't seen any shinies yet in BW... hopefully I will soon ^.^

@Tachibana Azumi - Well, it is your decision, but perhaps you should evolve it? If you don't plan to really use it in competetive battles, the only good reason to evolve it would be to up its value a little... I guess.

Lee Know June 9th, 2011 8:10 PM

lol, so I was like out training my shiny Arceus named Llama- he flies, by the way -and I was training it in the speed stat around the Pinwheel Forest.

And what do you know, I happen upon an adorable shiny Purrloin with Limber. Prettiest little thing, I was so proud to have found one- I threw a damn Great Ball out of sheer excitement. xD

Hehe, he doesn't count that's a required story encounter. I've caught him and used him in all of my gold and HG play throughs. XD

Other than him, litwik was my first ever shiny honest to goodness. My friend years ago once found a shiny gastly on his silver, we didn't know what it was at the time. So we never paid any attention to it, little did I know back then how rare it was.

DarkAlucard June 9th, 2011 11:53 PM

I still haven't found any shiny pokemon in Black, though it's not really something that make me lose sleep.

CLU June 10th, 2011 1:27 PM

I have gotten one shiny in my Black version, a Stunfisk.
Didn't really hope for one, but I love him a lot. <3

Right now I'm working on shiny Vanillite with Masuda Method (since March, ouch).
Hope I get one soon! Hatched over 1,000 by now.
