Trying My Hand At Chaining, Any Requests?
Hello all!
I have been working on chaining shinies since last night and I've gotten a chain of 30 on a murkrow. Im so excited that I'm getting so close! I am out of school for the next two weeks and I would like to know if anyone wants me to chain them certain shinies in particular. In return I am looking for shiny legendaries/legendaries,event pokemon, japanese ditto (for starters) shiny butterfree (because I don't have fire red at the moment) and any shiny 5th gen pokemon. I have BW as well as DPtHGSS. Also I have ruby, sapphire, emerald, leaf green (and I have fire red but my brother took it to Missouri with him so I won't have access to it for another two weeks) so you can have any chained pokemon that I can get access to through GBA insertion. I only believe in respectable pokemon playing. Therefore, all pokemon I trade to you are legit, so I expect the same in return. Please no hacked pokemon, thank you! You may post here or PM me for a faster reply. My diamond FC (which I will be using to chain my shinies) is 3095 3869 2816 and my name is Paige ;D |
Hey there, could you chain me an abra? (I have WAAAAYYY to small of an attention span to chain) :D I'm using pearl btw :D
|
sure I'll try to chain you an abra! Theyre quite difficult to chain due to teleport however I'll do my best!

Wow... If you could chain me a Shiny Mareep (Available at Valley Windworks) I would be forever grateful! x33
I can offer any two Pokemon from here; http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=6566887#post6566887 |
I can chain you a shiny mareep! Of course:) I will send you a PM when I have him/her. I would like the shaymin and latios. If that is okay with you :O otherwise just the shaymin.
|
I would LOVE a shiny eevee! (preferably female if possible)
|
I was actually about to start chaining eevees! I'll get you one:) No promises about female but I can promise that I'll try!
|
awesome, thanks :D
I just LOVE shiny umbreon, the blue bands are so magical XD on generation V by the way! :S on generation V by the way! :S |
I've been looking for a chainer for a while now! If you think you could get one, I'd love a shiny Poochyena or Aron. I even have a Japanese ditto I can give you in return. Oh- I'd like to nickname the whichever pokemon you're able to obtain also, if that's alright.

Out of curiousity, how do you breed pokemon to make them shiny?
|
@Beanzy100000
I can transfer a shiny eevee to my black when I chain it on diamond. Also, when you breed a pokemon, the egg has a 1 in 8191 odds of being a shiny. Also, just like battles, it ALWAYS has the odds of 1:8191. Doesn't mean after 8191 eggs you're going to get a shiny. The odds are always 1:8191. However, if you breed a pokemon from, say America, with a foreign pokemon of the same breeding group it cuts it down to about 1:2048. Which is a heck of a lot higher than 1:8191. Which is why japanese dittos are so important and you see a lot of requests for them (or at least I have) because they can breed with anything excluding legendaries. Hope this helped:) @Larq I can get you a shiny aron :D I don't chain all day everyday though and I'm doing people who asked first, first. So it might take awhile! However, my first shiny took me around an hour so it shouldn't be TOO long ;D Also, Larq, you can nickname it! Just let me know what you wanna nickname it and I will. Also, Larq, you can nickname it! Just let me know what you wanna nickname it and I will. |
So shinies dont breed to make shinies?
|
No the chances would be exactly the same.
|
:D You're awesome! Thank you so, so much.
And congrats on getting your first shiny via chaining! I tried doing it so many times, and always ended up messing it up. It takes a lot of patience to do that. |

urgh... it just gets harder and harder.
what's chaining then? |
@Beanzy100000
Chaining is where you use the pokeradar (DPt) to chain pokemon and have a higher chance of getting shinies. It is very complicated and took me awhile to understand :P You can find a lot of information on it including how-to tutorials by using serebii, bulbapedia, smogon, youtube (for how-to videos. There are a lot), wiki.answers, ehow, and a lot of other sites. Just search "How to Chain for Shinies" on google. It will come up with videos and websites. Ignore if they say "How to chain for Shinies on Platinum/Diamond/Pearl" because they are all the same method. If you have any further questions regarding shiny pokemon feel free to PM me about it:) |
chaining is easy, the fact people want IVs with shinies now kinda made chaining pointless

@DemureGirl: That being said, I'd love it if you could chain me a shiny Ditto. I could RNG breed a Shiny Caterpie for you in return. I've never had the patience for chaining :P. |
If you can RNG for SHinies why dont you RNG for IVs?
|
i cant even chain :/
I got a chain of 11 bidoof, 7 roselia and 5 starly's but that's it :/ |
