Your Shiny Pokemon in ORAS
 
So as far as I know there isn't already a thread for this (excuse me if I missed it), but basically I'd like to know what Shiny Pokemon you guys have obtained in ORAS so far. :) Either by Chain Fishing, DexNav, Masuda Method or Random Encounters etc.

Yesterday I first leaped into Route 119 and chained a Shiny Feebas (why not) ^_^ Pretty pleased (chain 17). I will try the nifty chaining with the DexNav and Masuda Method after I beat the Elite Four.

Good luck everyone playing the game(s) and happy hunting! ;)

Gengar's Shadow December 6th, 2014 8:33 AM

I found a shiny Magikarp surfing in Sootopolis City...

Pendraflare December 6th, 2014 8:47 AM

So far, I have not found any shiny Pokémon in Omega Ruby yet. But i'm sure I will in given time, especially once I have the Shiny Charm for completing the Pokédex.

icycatelf December 6th, 2014 9:04 AM

I was trying to find a Slugma for my Pokédex when a Shiny Diglett appeared. :3

I was really tempted not to evolve it, but I finally gave in around Lv94 just in case it eventually gets an evo or Mega that I like.

Quillifer December 6th, 2014 10:00 AM

I have finished the game, just finished first post game quest, decided to fart around right outside Littleroot - and got a shiny Zigzagoon almost right off. Which is fantastic, as I love the things when they have the pick up ability, and I already had my MM shiny Linoone from X in my team even. I was thrilled. My male Linoone is Butterscotch, so I named my new sweet little female Caramel 8D

Mind you, I already finished my dex and obtained shiny charm. I still consider it luck, however, as I really don't go out of my way to find shinies.

I totally break for shiny zigzagoons or linoones any day.

Spinosaurus December 6th, 2014 11:10 AM

You can guess what I did.

DarkPoke001 December 6th, 2014 11:52 AM

None as per yet, played around just under 20 hours but only just got to Mauville

I reckon i got quite a lot in Y, but never got any in the original R/S/E, planning to get some this time around though :)

Flushed December 6th, 2014 11:54 AM

Ran into a shiny Sableye on chain 1 with the DexNav, really excited because the MegaEvo looks pretty cool shiny.

And I actually sat down and chained for a while for Skitty, and got a shiny on I think chain 47. I had multiple 40 chains prior, I guess my hopes were too high from the Sableye haha.

CuteLittleBlack December 6th, 2014 12:00 PM

No shinies so far.. Will start chain fishing after I beat the Elite 4 (I'm nearly at the end of Victory Road now). Just a quick question, when you use the Dexnav, does it show when there's a shiny or can you only see when you battle it?

She_Delphox December 6th, 2014 12:47 PM

So far, congratulations everyone! Amazing to Read about all your encounters! To everyone else, the best of luck! ;)

As far as Im concerned, You can only see it shiny when You encounter the pokemon. However keep your eyes on the counter how many times You have encountered a certain pokemon; the higher This number, the higher the shiny chance Will be! Good luck! ;)

La Espada December 6th, 2014 1:20 PM

Only two so far, both of which I got while breeding.

Judge Mandolore Shepard December 6th, 2014 6:50 PM

Other than the shiny Beldum from the event, I have not gotten any in Alpha Sapphire.

~RNC~ December 6th, 2014 8:27 PM

I was on Rt.124 (I think) looking for a relicanth for the regi trio when I ran into a chinchou, now since I was under water wasn't sure but caught it any ways thn got the relicanth, went to the PC box right after an sure enough it was a shiny chinchou.

Wick December 6th, 2014 8:41 PM

Other than the few I've gotten via trades, and the Beldum, I have not found any naturally.

Death December 6th, 2014 9:03 PM

I hatched a shiny vullaby while trying to complete my living Pokedex.

Candy December 7th, 2014 1:47 AM

Haven't found one yet, but I'm planning on hunting rather soon. But first, I need to complete the holes on my living dex once again and get my Shiny Charm.

epicbiscuit23 December 7th, 2014 2:21 AM

I found a shiny poochyena by running around in the grass

(I have a shiny metagross but that doesn't count)

Nakala Pri December 7th, 2014 5:29 AM

I caught a shiny Gulpin yesterday!! :D It was the first shiny I ever caught.

I was considering using it but Swalot isn't that great. xD

Gardevoir the Dragon Slayer December 7th, 2014 6:16 AM

So far just a Goldeen(now sea king) and metagross but I intend to shiny chain fish most of the water Pokemon needed for the dex.

EDIT: now have two shiny Magicarps and Tenticool after an afternoons fishing!!!

destinedjagold December 7th, 2014 5:37 PM

My first shiny encounter was a shiny Surskit on that route west of Mauville. It appeared on my dex nav, but since I already caught one, I ignored it, but then decided to battle it for the heck of it. Lo and behold, it was a shiny! xD

The second shiny I got was also thanks to the dex nav. I was on the bus heading home, and catching 'mons on the Mirage Spots I got online. And then, the first Darmanitan I ever encountered through the dex nav was a shiny. x3

The third shiny 'mon I caught was once again thanks to the dex nav. I was on my way to the Sky Pillar during Episode Delta, and on the ocean, this Finneon popped up. I haven't caught one yet, so I sneaked up to it, and bam! It was shiny! xD

Xadvid December 7th, 2014 7:13 PM

Managed to get my first Shiny (Swablu) from MM after 219 eggs! So happy ;- ;

captainfez3 December 7th, 2014 8:59 PM

Found a shiny machop (who is now a Machamp) outside of Mauville. It is always gratifying when you get a shiny that you will actually want AND he has the nature/ability you want as well. :)

PokeChris123 December 8th, 2014 12:43 PM

My first shiny was Shiny Beldum from the event. But besides that, while playing through the Delta Episode and after battling Zinnia for the first time, I went to go exit Granite Cave but before I got out, I encountered a shiny Makuhita. I didn't even use the DexNav.

Chrayus December 8th, 2014 1:06 PM

I have not naturally caught any shinies, and I have over 70 hours of gameplay. I tried dexnav chaining and got nothing after what I believe was a 60-70 pokemon chain. What is the secret to gettting all these shinies?

Try Chain fishing 100% chance of getting a shiny but limited only to pokemon caught with a rod.

DarkPoke001 December 8th, 2014 2:08 PM

I must have the worst Shiny luck on Omega Ruby, hunting for a DexNav Shiny Numel, on a current chain of around 60, a search level of 135, and nothing yet :(

hope it shines soon :)

Psywing December 8th, 2014 6:12 PM

I SR'd for a shiny Treecko. Got him around 3000 resets.
When I got the old rod, I thought I would chain up a shiny Tentacool to play through with. I got three shiny Magikarps before I got my shiny Tentacool.

s0nido December 9th, 2014 3:54 AM

I believe my first shiny was a shiny Samurott that I picked up from a bout of Wonder Trade. I also picked up a shiny Shuckle the same day. Those shinies don't feel that special because I'm 90% sure that whoever traded them to me just genned them to be shiny anyway.

Valkyrie Heart December 9th, 2014 7:05 AM

My shiny pokemon on AS are due to the fact that I traded them from X. I have not found any in AS, yet. ;-;

Virizion
Volcarona
Venusaur
Claydol

GhostTrainer December 9th, 2014 7:48 AM

I have my Shiny Gyrados that I transferred from my SS game, my Corsela from X/Y, and my shiny Metagross

Z25 December 9th, 2014 8:05 AM

Only one so far, ho oh after like 400 srs. Working on re obtaining the shiny charm though.

EagleVision1999 December 9th, 2014 1:15 PM

I'm trying fot shinies by chaining with the DexNav, I'm not totally convinced this method works...
I did, however, get a shiny Bulbasaur through wondertrade. Barely registered the shinyness at first, but it looked off so I looked at its stats and saw the little red star :)
I have no idea wether it's legit, but there's nothing obviously wrong with it, so I'm keeping it.

Gardevoir the Dragon Slayer December 9th, 2014 3:55 PM

A productive day finding Shinies today. Shiny Feebas (that was a great surprise), Shiny carvanha and Shiny Wailmer. Yes I love chain fishing!!!

ben96atkinson December 10th, 2014 9:21 AM

First Omega Ruby shiny experience! What's yours?
 
So I was working, then on the mid-lunch break I thought, I'll have a quick session on Omega Ruby, so as I was up the top of Sky Pillar (just explorin') I decided to see if I could use the Eon Flute without Latios in my party, and to my surprise, you can! So I backed up a bit and saw a little island which I luckily decided to land on, and searching around I found a hovering ring, like the one I found my [spoiler] Ho-oh [spoiler]in, so I saved before entering and had no clue what Pokémon I would approach, with a good idea it'd be a legendary I went on to see who it was, and I saw a Cobalion, not just a normal Cobalion, but a SHINY COBALION! Without a single reset! I went on to catch it in a Pokéball, it's got a bold nature, any recommendations for which stat I should super train? And any other training tips/move sets/other tips for it?

:)

So have you got/seen any shiny Pokémon on your game yet?

Metalvayne December 10th, 2014 10:18 AM

Very lucky! I got a shiny Electrike through chaining, but unfortunately, no random encounters yet. I REALLY want a shiny Koffing but it's near impossible to chain... :(

Edit: Shiny Feebas as well. I joined the crowd.

Edit 2: I have over a box full now, not counting the ones I've been given/traded.

Hey, maybe we'll finally get to see what it looks like underground then! ;)

Or, just a few more heads... lol.

WishCookie December 10th, 2014 10:40 AM

I found a shiny Vulpix! Omg haha, I was so happy! :D A shiny Ninetales is just stunningly beautiful!

Rylee Xylph December 10th, 2014 11:04 AM

Found a shiny Tropius while looking for one with Leech Seed and Harvest. It would've have been quicker just to breed Leech Seed onto one by this point, but I was having too much fun sneaking about.

I missed the sparklies because I was looking away from the screen when the battle started, luckily I was paying enough attention to notice the colours were a little off

Aeroblast December 10th, 2014 11:10 AM

Hatched this beauty after 2 boxes.

http://i58.*.com/2jbkz2f.jpg

NeonMewtwo December 10th, 2014 2:15 PM

I haven't found any shiny Pokemon in the wild yet. I've received a shiny Oshawott and Sableye in Wonder Trade.

With the shiny Sableye, that caught me completely by surprise!

Shiningsuicune December 10th, 2014 6:09 PM

I spent all day chaining and finally got me a shiny Poochyena :D Right now I'm doing the masuda method for a Fennekin, after that, I don't know what shiny to do, too many good ones!

LividZephyr December 10th, 2014 10:53 PM

My first AreaNav chain was Sableye... and I got a shiny pretty quickly. This is how I realized that there might be something shiny-related with it.

Too bad its ability is Stall, but a shiny's a shiny.

Wow congratulations! :) I remember the same thing when encountering my Shiny Virizion in White2 (Loved it, she is the feminine one imo and she looks pink! :D)

Concerning your Bold Cobalion, since it lowers its attack (-Att +Def) I would super train it in Def and Sp.Def :) Usually a +Att Cobalion would be the best, but meh who cares yours is shiny :D Regarding the moveset I would go with either something like Iron Defense (with BP), Magnet Rise (with BP, maybe, I think this gives you immunity to ground types for 5 turns, since he is part Steel), Toxic to slowly KO your opponent and Stealth Rock. Since yours has higher Def (and Sp.Def) it can serve as a wall. ;) Cobalion is after all, a "Physical Att Pokemon", so it kinda only learns physical moves. Because it's Bold, you should go with building a "wall moveset" so something like this :) Hope I helped and good luck! ;)

PS: I myself already caught 2 shiny Feebas, one of which without chaining :) I'm still into the main story (I like to enjoy this game and take everything as slowly as possible lol), but after the E4 I will chain with the DexNav some more probably and obtaining the Shiny Charm once again :)

Keiran December 11th, 2014 12:04 AM

I fished up a shiny Tentacool while looking for a surfer after I had beaten Norman. I didn't even know fish chaining was in ORAS as well but it was less than 5 casts anyway. :C

I named him Metroid! :3

Wick December 11th, 2014 12:54 AM

After about 150+ hours logged I managed to finally get my first ORAS shiny. a Shiny Growlithe that I managed to hatch after about a box and a half. Too bad it's stats and nature aren't exactly what I'd like, but I guess it's something.

Quillifer December 11th, 2014 5:40 PM

Chaining out of boredom. First shiny Magikarp (bleh), then shiny Carvanha. Productive afternoon.

nightmare314 December 12th, 2014 1:07 PM

So far, I've gotten 4 shiny Wailmers, three of them by accident cause I was trying to get a Staryu for my Pokedex, a shiny Magikarp cause what the hey, why not, a shiny Corphish and a shiny Barboach. All by chain fishing, obviously. With the dex nav I have only got a shiny Ralts but it was male so now I have a shiny Mega Gallade. I now that male Ralts can be Gardevoir but now with Gallade, who can only be male, it doesn't feel right to make a male Ralts a Gardevoir. I don't care how long it takes me, I don't care if I end up getting 40 shiny male Ralts, I will keep doing it until I've gotten a female shiny Ralts haha

SparklingMistral December 12th, 2014 5:44 PM

Besides the event Beldum, which I don't really count since it was kinda handed to me, I have none yet. I've got awful luck with shinies, so yeah. :c

TwilightBlade December 13th, 2014 9:05 AM

http://i.imgur.com/sUP5hUT.jpg?1

I got this beauty after 206 SRs. I SR'd for an hour on December 10 and SR'd for about 35 minutes on December 11 when it appeared. I wasn't expecting to get Zekrom this early at all even with the Shiny Charm. It took me at least 30 turns to catch it in a Luxury ball, but totally worth it. :3 It's Adamant with approximate IVs of 31 | 31 | 20 | 10 | 31 | 7. I took a video of the moment of capture.

Also, I had a spasm in the #tradecorner.

And kinda nice hearing what you sound like :P

I have to say, your voice sounds really beautiful. But aside from that, congrats on that Zekrom! Has a really great nature and everything, especially those solid perfect IVs in HP, Attack and Sp. Defense.

Also, I really love the 6th Gen version of Reshiram & Zekrom's encounter theme

Sadly I haven't played yet so no OR/AS shinies, but who knows maybe I might eventually find one when I'm playing?

Esoj December 13th, 2014 9:31 AM

My first shiny was a male Purugly, it appeared randomly while I was exploring the Mirage Forest. I caught it with the Premier Ball. :)

Silhouette December 13th, 2014 10:02 AM

Conveniently just came across this thread after chain fishing for Feebas. I caught two shiny ones before my chain broke, which are my only ORAS shinies aside from Metagross, which is an event.

Gardevoir the Dragon Slayer December 13th, 2014 10:41 AM

A Shiny Barboach which has evolved to a Whiscash added to the collection now.

Nusdogg December 13th, 2014 6:42 PM

Still hunting for my shiny Latios from Southern Island. So far 535 run away encounters, and nothing yet. Hopefully soon.

Z25 December 13th, 2014 8:21 PM

Got a shiny seedot with bullet seed, pickpocket, and 3ivs through dex nav chaining last night. It came after like 220 encounters with the shiny charm, not sure this works and almost gave up but glad i didn't.

Nusdogg December 16th, 2014 5:13 PM

Just caught my shiny Wailmer on route 126 using fishing chain method. Took me only 20 tries, but there it is. Just a couple mins ago, I also caught a shiny Magikarp, and that took me 57 tries. It usually don't go past 25 tries.

Disolia December 16th, 2014 5:27 PM

Kirlia:
Randomly attempted them when hunting for a Ralts with modest nature; got them with a brave nature.
I didn't mind that it's nature was bad though, they're adorable and now a part of my main team, and I don't plan to evolve them to a Gardevoir.

Nincada:
Obtained attempting the navdex method; I just wanted to see if it worked.
Gave it away by accident in a wonder trade for a Zigzagoon; don't regret it.

All I have is the shiny Beldum from mystery gift that is now a Metang.

DarkPoke001 December 17th, 2014 3:15 PM

YEEEEESSSSSH

after an unusually long Shiny drought,

I finally CAUGHT my first Omega Ruby Shiny!

it may only be a Tentacool, but it's the start of a glorious Hoenn Shiny Hunting Adventure! :)

mikey December 18th, 2014 3:44 PM

I'm in the process of trying to get a shiny Feebas, since they made it easier to catch him in these games and he's able to be chained via fishing. No luck so far, but I know it works. I was successful with chaining by fishing in XY.

Other than that, no shines in Hoenn for me yet :l

Karajan December 18th, 2014 11:47 PM

I randomly caught a shiny Scraggy and didn't even know it was shiny till I looked in my pokedex xD Only shiny I've caught so far.

Death December 19th, 2014 12:37 AM

I am currently MM breeding eevee. I hatched one from my first batch of 30 eggs. Sadly, not one with its HA so I have to keep trying

MrRaptorTurtle December 19th, 2014 3:23 AM

Got myself a nice shiny Ralts yesterday throught the DexNav chaining method, I tried the day before and got up to 100 chains before my tailow decided to evolve on me and break my chain. So I tried again yesterday and got it on the 14th chain :D

Z25 December 19th, 2014 10:13 AM

Got a shiny reshiriam yesterday, took almost a full week of resets though. I have seen people getting legends shiny non stop though in mirage spots so maybe there are increased odd as suggested before.

Twilight-kun December 19th, 2014 11:23 AM

The only Shiny Pokemon I have EVER encountered in over 10 years of Pokemon is the Red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage


Meanwhile there's people raking in the Shinies left and right and I'm just sitting here wondering: "Does my game somehow know who's playing it and decides to laugh at me and give me nothing but bad natures and characteristics?"

Shiningsuicune December 21st, 2014 2:37 PM

I caught a shiny Zorua! I chained for a few hours (I keep breaking my chain) and I finally got it at a pretty low chain and a search level of 404 (It's supposed to be a NOT found error though!). I caught it in a premier ball at level 16, it's a Zoroark now with its nature being docile and having 2 ivs. One is speed and one in sp. atk. Not bad!

And, now, I have obtained the Eevee I've been MM breeding for. He is now a lovely Sylveon and I'm just so surprised that I got this IV spread since most of the Eevees I checked didn't have this IV spread.

I'm probably going to try for a Phantump next.

Meanwhile there's people raking in the Shinies left and right and I'm just sitting here wondering: "Does my game somehow know who's playing it and decides to laugh at me and give me nothing but bad natures and characteristics?"

this was literally me until like ten minutes ago

i was hunting for a horsea with a dragon scale and at the same time watching anime, so i wasn't really paying attention, and one second i looked down at my 3ds and bam shiny seadra! which is esp. crazy bc it was only the first seadra i had encountered in like two hours, bc its rate at regular alone is 5% in the route

im in tears right now

After going through the vast majority of the game, I'm proud to announce that my first shiny in OR/AS is a Numel encountered through DexNav. I didn't even try for it; I was looking for a good-IVed Numel as a breeding partner for the Numel I brought over from X/Y.

chuuwi December 24th, 2014 6:16 AM

I was just walking casually on fiery path then suddenly a shiny grimer appeared and caught it!

This is still me, except I have the event Metagross.

clbgolden December 24th, 2014 10:45 AM

My first shiny that I caught myself was a Skorupi. False Swiped it then used an Ultra Ball on it.

Zeffy December 24th, 2014 10:54 AM

Sadly my only shiny is the the Beldum event :( I do plan on doing all of those magical techniques of getting lots and lots of shinies once I finish the main storyline though. So far I'm still literally checking every nook and cranny of Hoenn to see if I can find something interesting, haha.

Aeroblast December 24th, 2014 11:26 AM

Just hatched a shiny Chansey, hoping it's perfect.

Dunnydude December 25th, 2014 11:07 AM

I got a shiny Feebas in only 5 chains, really surprised.

Evolved it into a Milotic, found out it had a decent nature for competitive, and I Horde trained it. Practically my first actual competitive-ready Pokemon :D

And Oshawott itself, even through Pokeball inheritence, is only available in a standard Pokeball.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

And to keep on topic of this thread. I have caught a shiny Sandshrew in a horde on Route 111.
I also MM'd a Shiny Feebas which I bred specifically for a Milotic Solo Run.
I'm currently trying find a shiny Shuppet through hordes in Mt. Pyre's Interior, should get one soon enough because only Shuppet hordes appear on the inside.
Oh, and of course the Event Beldum.

Sheep December 25th, 2014 12:50 PM

Just got a bold shiny Spheal! Only took about two hours of horde hunting. I love him. <3

Aeroblast December 25th, 2014 8:21 PM

My third shiny of ORAS, not soon after I hatched shiny Chansey yesterday. Reshiram after about 2 hours of soft resetting.



IVs are actually pretty good. 24-25/28-29/28-29/31/31/31. Used a synchronizer.

AmadeusB December 27th, 2014 3:44 AM

Chain fishing is actually such an easy way to get shinies, it's just time consuming. I used it 2 times to get myself a shiny magikarp and a shiny wailmer. I traded my magikarp for a zoroark tho :P

luo xiang December 27th, 2014 6:10 AM

Bred a shiny poliwag and didnt know it was shiny till it evolved into politoed xD nice surprise! Ex share so I never used it in battle to see the Bling lol

Z25 December 27th, 2014 10:42 AM

On Christmas the other day, i got a shiny cresselia through soft reseting after starting that day. There was 15 minutes left of Christmas when it shone, it was a late Christmas miracle xD. I named it sailor moon.

TheSyren December 27th, 2014 1:26 PM

^ nice, sailor moon.

i've caught a shiny loudred, but traded it for a shiny vulpix. all of my shinies are usually traded for shiny vulpix or ninetails, since i collect them. heh heh, and once i have a box full, i will be unstoppable.

DarkPoke001 December 27th, 2014 1:51 PM

caught i Shiny Magikarp whilst chaining for a Shiny Carvanha

it's nice and all, but i already have a Shiny Gyarados on Y and really want that Carvanha

pyrexpyramids December 27th, 2014 3:22 PM

Yesterday I caught a shiny Cobalion after 7 soft resets (I have the shiny charm). Currently soft resetting for shiny Cresselia.........not nearly as lucky. I'm in the hundreds now with SR'ing for it and still no luck.

W-Man64 December 28th, 2014 1:37 AM

I literally about 10 minutes ago, caught my SECOND shiny and that being Whismur. I caught in a Horde. My first shiny I caught was in Platinum and was a Starly. I had just reset my game and had done all the Start-Game stuff and I said to myself "I should catch a Starly because I didn't use a Starly in my last play-through of it." So I went on Route 202 and the first Pokemon I saw was guess what. A SHINY STARLY!!!!

rperlish December 28th, 2014 5:16 AM

I randomly encountered a shiny Golbat in sea floor cavern.

DarkPoke001 December 29th, 2014 5:58 AM

Finally encountered a Shiny Carvanha last night, have been cahining for one for absolutely ages, even accidentally finding a Shiny Magikarp ib the process, but at least now, Typhoon the Shiny Carvanha is mine! :3

Can't wait to surf on Shiny Sharpedo ^_^

Z25 December 29th, 2014 9:23 AM

Got a shiny mespirit last night! Named it wisdom after the triforce.

antemortem December 29th, 2014 9:57 AM

Caught myself a Shiny Suicune with no soft resetting effort, though it did take every single ball I had, including the inevitable use of my Master Ball. :(

Altairis December 29th, 2014 11:28 AM

I still haven't caught any shinies but my brother caught a shiny FEEBAS I can't believe it he's already found more shinies than me ;_;

skyluigi2 December 29th, 2014 1:01 PM

Found my first shiny since Crystal in ORAS! One of my favourite Pokémon too, a Tropius!

Jakeings December 29th, 2014 1:37 PM

Got a shiny Latias through wonder trade!

CrystalXShine December 29th, 2014 2:12 PM

I think my game is thowing shinies at me like a homicidal maniac. ;~; I can't get this lucky, because I'm pretty sure something bad will happen next in retribution...

In the span of 2 weeks, I caught a shiny Zigzagoon, Numel, Cresselia, and Zekrom.

Zigzagoon was found in a horde encounter when I was EV training. Like, I heard the sparkles, and then I looked up and I wasn't sure if I should have been laughing, facepalming, or celebrating. XD Numel was found as a random encounter. Like, I saw the blue on its back, and I was like: Isn't that a little blue...? And then the sparkles came out and I was like: SQUEEE

I SRed for Cresselia and Zekrom. Both were evil. ;~; Cresselia, I managed to catch it in a heal ball with no problems, except...I looked at its summary. I used synchronize, but it failed! And it was adamant. D: Zekrom, though...

>The wild Zekrom used Slash!
>Parasect's Effect Spore! The wild Zekrom was poisoned!
Me: NOARCEUSNOOOOooo! D:
I ended up having to throw a Master Ball at it. *puts head in hands* It was the first time I've been forced to use a Master Ball in 4 years. :( But it came out Jolly, so it wasn't all that bad~

Oh, yeah! I also got a shiny Delibird via wonder trade on X-Mas holding a Master Ball. I promptly sent it off to someone else. ^^

987Theawesome December 30th, 2014 8:15 AM

As of now I haven't encountered any shiny pokemon in OR/AS but I have transferred all my legit full odd shinies from older games, I'm currently hunting for a shiny Reshiram though.

Megan December 30th, 2014 9:57 AM

Just found a shiny Tentacool while backtracking to Seafloor Cavern. So I suppose that marks my first shiny in ORAS. xD

Canis December 30th, 2014 11:46 AM

I have the shiny metagross and I am MM for treecko no luck 250 eggs :(

Z25 December 31st, 2014 2:44 PM

Got a shiny kyreum today after 5 days of soft resetting! Now onto latias and dialgla!

Fourth The Tyrant December 31st, 2014 4:27 PM

I've found a lot of nothing so far. :(
My mom was playing with me yesterday and watching me WT some of my extra catches, so she stopped looking for an abra just long enough to WT one cascoon. What did she get?
Shiny ditto.
I stared for a long, long time while she laughed at me. >>

ShiningKami December 31st, 2014 4:45 PM

I managed to chain a shiny male Feebas the other day. I think he'll be one of my contest Pokémon, since he doesn't have brilliant stats (and I already have two water-types on my permanent team).
