That's because HG is the best Pokemon game ever. You should have played it a year ago when I told you to.
|
I did play it a year ago! I caught my beautiful shiny Articuno in a Moon Ball last year!! :D But now with Apricorn Balls passing on in XY I have an actual reason to play it besides just RNGing. Also, got my Action Replay working on HG, turns out it was my lite that wasn't working on it, which isn't a problem anymore since that lite is broken now... Phats are really phat and awkward and so tiny after playing on a 3DS for months. D:

Trying my luck with 10 boxes of Safari Ball Surskits. If I don't hatch a shiny I'm just going to move on to Sport Ball Kricketots regardless.
|
Good luck and hopefully you'll get a shiny! :D

Do you consider legitimate offspring from hacked Pokemon hacked? (i.e. Love Ball Eevee with Kalos mark)

I'm asking this because someone offered me a shiny Moon Ball Yamask with Kalos mark (and obviously Yamask cannot be caught in Moon Ball), but I don't know if I should ever trade it here, let alone take the offer. |

Legality is the most important thing. It's impossible to know what's legit without having caught something yourself.

I thought about putting my Pokédex in special Gen 4 Balls but I prefer them to be uniform. Almost everything is available in Premier if I put the work in except Male Only/Genderless. I would expect them to be easier to find than they are though. DW Pokémon in Premier that is. My search continues!!
What is the method you guys gather eggs? You say you gather a bunch then hatch them but how do you go about gathering then hatching? |
I gather 5 by biking back and forth in front of daycare then I fly to the tower, stick a card under control stick, and then hit B every time an egg hatches, then after all 5 hatch fly to IV checker and WT all nonperfects. :D
|
No black Surskit for me, unfortunately. I'm going to move on to Kricketot next week. (if I have time)
|
Aww that sucks :( I'm thinking of Masuading for Love Ball Cherubi again because I really love the pink color of it especially in sunny form. But then I really want a shiny Eevee D:
|
Shiny Eevee...
Ugh, I still have no freaking luck on getting a shiny. >.> Already WT 4 boxes since I started. =/ |
Don't give up! It takes a ton of time to get a shiny. I'm on 50+ boxes now on Eevees alone. D: I think over 2,500 eggs total not sure, but definitely over 2,000. I have a box full of hex flawless alone to show just how long I've been at this. >.<

I'm letting my shop die again. There's so many shops now and gosh, I want to do my own projects too! Luckily there's other people doing IV breeding requests now. (I AM NO LONGER ALONE)
Yeah, my current project is also getting stuff in gen 2 apricorn balls. I'm nowhere near as close as most other people are since I'm doing it on a challenge cart. Meaning once I actually beat this game, I'll have to reset it in order to start a new run. Derp derp derp And as far as I'm concerned, you kids can take your shiny charms and shove it. I'm encountering more shinies without than you are with it. Nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh! Want this Lapras? YOU CAN'T HAVE IT! :B |

I'm not looking to try too hard to MM anything though, as I never had luck with Shinys to begin with.... I just wanted to acctually complete my national dex. My new project is to finally RNG all my Pokemon stuck in the Entree Forrest in all my Gen V games. I have around 100 waiting on B2/W2 each... and probably 50 or so on my B/W games. It should acctually go pretty quick as I won't be aiming for specific natures, only specific spreads (In part for those that are unfamiliar with Entralink abuse, the other Pokemon in the forest cause the nature to shift like walking NPC's). |

I HAVE tried with no luck to chain fish, and chain radar.... but both get boring(for me) quickly. I play these games to breed, and collect. The meathods to search for that one shiny you want do not hold my attention span. The one time I DO finally encounter a shiny of my own I will be overjoyed to say the very least. But for not, it's a brief break from this Gen. Once I have all my Dream World Pokemon transfered over so I can breed dream balls I'll start back in on breeding in this Gen. |
I tried and tried to rng last gen, but with no one in real life to teach me, it was to overwhelming. Being older and from a hick town that didn't really have computer classes until I was ready to graduate hurt me on the computer knowledge front, XD.
I've also tried to chain fish and chain radar but to no avail as well. I agree those methods are boring and so is the masuda method. But, after mm-ing for so long, I find it hard to actually go out and battle hoping for shinies:/.The whole thing that got me started mm-ing this generation though(something I hadn't attempted previously) was an accidental hatch of the shiny treecko that is making its rounds in several shops. All I was doing there was shooting for an adamant one for a breeding request. At the time, I didn't have anyway to guarantee an adamant hatch so I was just popping them out like crazy and hoping for the best. On my seventh or eighth egg, a shiny hatched and I've been hooked since. I finally collected all the shinies I wanted to do another play through with, so now I'm going to go a little slower waiting on a shiny high iv inkay to hatch. Then I'm going to either go back to trying for espurr( I had to quit the first attempt because I was getting tired of all the pink. Plus I was promised a shiny espurr and never received it. XD) or continue the hunt for the new shiny fairies. I have about 125-150 slots of older shiny pokemon I need to fill but for right now, I'm still too excited over the new pokemon. |
I never got my own Shiny until this Gen. With this Gen I've gotten a stupid amount of them. The bad thing is all the Shinies I've gotten have been stuff I wasn't trying for, except Tyrunt but that was before it's Egg Move list was on any websites and before I could breed good IV as I was starting with two 0IV parents.
Anything I try to breed Shiny doesn't happen. It's always the stuff I'm breeding for somebody else. Before I have a good IV mother, Ditto is the father 95% of the time due to the ball passing and higher Ability chance. If you ask me to breed you certain Egg Moves and what not I'll probably hatch a Shiny. If I want a Shiny, no such luck. |
