decided to shiny hunt charmeleon in friend safari after months of not playing got one within 30min of turning on my ds. I think the game is reeling me back in xD
|
Got a Shiny Horsea after 5 minutes of chain fishing (first time i tried it). Hopefully get this lucky again as looking for a Shiny Dratini (Like the look of the shiny Dragonair) :)
|
Hahah, maybe it is. cx So, I'm thinking of doing a Shiny Emporium for trading, I have a reliable method of cloning. What do you guys think?

How Do You Get Shinies!?
Hi Trainers, I see people boasting about there "Limited Edition Max IV Shiny Mew" and I wonder how do they do it. All the experienced Shiny Hunters out there, could you give me some tips? People will say "It's just Luck" but you see people with about 200 shinies so there has to be something to it! So if you have any tips (good places to luck etc.) I'd be grateful!

I personally have been finding a shiny pokemon approximately 1 every 100 hours of gameplay, but I have gotten lucky such as breeding both a shiny Fennekin and a shiny Chespin within an hour of each other, and a few days ago finding a shiny Hoppip in a horde and then a little while later that same session finding a shiny Skiddo. My luck though has been due to grinding. I level up all my pokemon from level 1 through battling. And not 1 pokemon battling with the Exp Share turned on either, but rather each and every single pokemon fights in battles itself to level itself up (I do use the Lucky Egg though) and because of the sheer number of battles I'm fighting all the time I am running into shinies every once in a while. There's things you can do to increase the odds (as I had previously mentioned, such as the shiny charm and breeding pokemon from different regions) but no matter what you do, it's not going to be a quick thing. It's going to take a lot of time so you're better off doing other things (such as levelling up, battling for money, etc, etc) and while you're not thinking about it, you'll eventually run into a shiny once in a while. |

Hey guys!
I've had luck recently in the Friend Safari again, after a long hiatus of not hunting. So I was wandering around in an Electric-type safari, with Emolga, Pikachu, and my favorite electric type, Manectric. I was on Skype with my boyfriend, and all the sudden I see sparkles. I look over, and it was a shiny Manectric! I was speechless, since I had never had particularly good luck in that safari, I'd gone in there a lot in the past, couldn't find anything. So, in honor of the shiny Manectric, I decided to clone it while it was holding a Master Ball. I'm giving them away, first come, first serve! Let me know if you'd like one. <3 (I only have six of them.) |
My Very first shiny after playing every generation was about a week ago. i caught a shiny azuril! cutest freaking pokemon ever! i then evolved him into a azumaril and quickly lost interest. traded him on gts for a yveltal for my dex. then yesterday as i was breeding for a naughty trubbish, i was wonder trading a few of my non naughtys lol and got a shiny frillish! traded that to. i really want a shiny aegislash!

So I decided to do some testing in the Friend Safari after reading some data on Smogon about the shiny rates in there. So, it's approximated that the shiny rate is 1/512. The shiny charm has no effect. To test this, I did a tally chart in a notebook during my hunt in a Fire-type safari. After around 90 encounters, I found a shiny Charmeleon.

I had roughly 50 encounters logged before going to lay down in bed, and it seems that tipping has no effect either. If demand is great, I may put the link to the data here.
I haven't checked it yet, I will soon though! |

even thought is not very different from the regular version (is like a tanned meowth) it is still a shinny so many emotions with my first shinny of all times *--------* would love to trade for a legendary though, i only have pokemon y so i have only pokemon y legendaries (Yvetal, Zygarde, Mewtwo, Diancie, Darkrai, Celebi) |

My very first was a Rapidash it was so freaking cool then I lost the game it was on. I had never heard of a shiny Pokemon before when I caught it and freaked out thinking I caught some event Pokemon thing lol! Congrats on yours and may there be many many more to come its awesome when you catch your first shiny!
|
