I just caught a shiny Zorua after a dex nav chain of only 15!! This never happened to me before!
|
Tryaitair
Volcanino That's about it |
just caught a shiny tynamo after 3 encounters. i was kind of confused but i was like, "i'll take it"
|
I caught a shiny Cofagrigus a little while ago. It's actually the second shiny I've ever caught, so I was definitely excited.
|
Just caught a shiny Medicham on Victory Road just yesterday \o/
Spoiler:

I have the Shiny Charm now (whoo!), and the Ditto I use to breed is foreign, so I get shinies occasionally when doing Pokemon breeding projects. The latest shiny I got via breeding was Gliscor, and it was a pleasant surprise, because its IV spread turned out to be the correct one as well :-D
But despite my luck with breeding, I haven't encountered any shinies in the wild yet, even with the Shiny Charm's help :-/ |
Chain fished for a Shiny Feebas and got one of the purple and silver finned fish after less than 30 casts.
I decided to evolve it the old-fashioned way by feeding it a stack of blue Pokeblocks and after Leveling up, Shiny Male Milotic. I plan to use him for Contests. :) |
I've gotten 2 so far. Both from Masuda Method with a 6 iV ditto. A shiny Weedle which is now a Shiny Beedril (Mega) and a shiny Slugma that I evolved into a Shiny Magcargo. Finally got a competitively viable shiny Magcargo. Only had to hatch about 1200 eggs for her.
|
i have a shiny tentacool that i have'nt evolved yet, a shiny minun which broke my chain on y for a shiny skiddo, 2 poliwags i plan on evolving into politoed and poliwrath, and a carvanha that i evolved into sharpedo.
|
Ran into a Swablu whilst on Route 114...it was Shiny. I missed the sparkles so was very surprised to see he was Gold. It is a Shiny I have wanted for a while. Caught him in a Premier Ball too. :)

From the wondertrade, I got a shiny cofagrigus and riolu, both seem to be totally legit. I got a shiny luvdisc and a shiny wailmer(named Wailward Son) from chain fishing. I got a shiny oddish after only two random hoardes one day, and a shiny wingull while trying to hoarde for an electrike. Also got a shiny swablue while searching for secret bases to steal flags from. I'd have a shuppet too, but I accidentally KO'd it. -__- Best of all though, I Masuda'ed and got a 5IV shiny buneary! :D I'm super happy about that! Now I just need to Masuda for more pokemon, haha. |

How often do you do Wondertrade? I'd imagine you'd have to do it a lot in order to have had that much luck getting shinies out of it~ |
Quote:
The most pokemon I wondertrade at one time is a full box, give or take a few retrades in the same sitting. Overall I'd estimate it takes about 30-50 mons to have decent chances of receiving a shiny off the wondertrade.(Well, that and luck and a really generous stranger, haha.) |
The first shiny I got in AS was a Cofagrigus from a WT. Followed by a Chesnaught, Hawlucha and Luvdisc. I've since traded away the Luvdisc, and I got a shiny Darkrai in return. (Before I started Dexnav-chaining I tried the Masuda method instead with no luck, so I had ~5 boxes full of Eevees I ended up WT'ing away >->')
I've also done some Dexnav chaining and caught three Eevees (evolved one into Umbreon and another into Jolteon. Planning on evolving the third one into Flareon) and one Zorua that way. I also managed to catch a shiny Magikarp, but I traded that one away earlier today and got a shiny Arceus in return. (It's a pretty funny thought that I traded away the canonically weakest and most useless pokémon ever and got a literal god-creature in return for it xD) So, my list is currently like this: - Eevee - Umbreon - Jolteon - Cofagrigus - Arceus - Hawlucha - Chesnaught - Zorua |
Shiny Elgyem GET!
Spoiler:
I'm amazed at how many I'm finding in this game. I've never had this kind of luck obtaining shinies :o |
only recently (before I returned) I got a shiny Shuppet, 3 shiny Zubats and a shiny Gastly. The Gastly is my first ever hatched shiny.
|
2 Eevee's (i accidentally killed the 1st one because i didn't saw it lol), Ralts and Zorua
|
I've caught a total of 5 shinies so far in OR/AS, all of them I caught by using DexNav. My first OR/AS shiny is a shiny Zorua, now a shiny Zoroark, caught it after a total of 325 encounters. The second was a shiny Zangoose which I caught after somewhere between 140-169 encounters, followed by a shiny Tyrogue now Hitmonlee after 129 encounters, a shiny Ralts after 4 encounters (10 if I can't previous encounters before I even started hunting for it), and my most recent being a shiny Machop and I don't even remember how many encounters I had to go through to catch it.
I'm currently hunting for a shiny Marill and its so far taking the longest to find. I've stopped hunting for it for right now, but I will continue my hunt for it hopefully sometime soon. |
Got a Dexnav chain of around 140 in Mirage Forest DexNaving for a Shiny Petilil...Nothing.
Take a short break and on a Dexnav chain of 2...Shiny Petilil. My reaction was similar to one of those overjoyed reactions on a Shiny Reaction video. One of my favourite Pokemon. I plan to use her in Contests. :) My first Dexnav Shiny. |
2 shiny's today so far! Cherrim and Klefki, currently going for Cottonee and Phantump :D
|
The only shinies I have are ones that were released as events. Shinies are meaningless nowadays, what with hackers oversaturating the GTS with them and all. There isn't really a single special quality about them except for a palette swap. That's why I haven't put a whole lot of effort into shiny hunting.
|
I've only been shiny hunting for a few weeks, and i already have quite a few number of shinies! Most are from dexnav and hoards, I've only gotten one through Masuda...
Azumarill- Took about 30ish encounters dexnaving on water! Audino-Three dexnav encounters, and I LOVE the mega! Swablu/Altaria- about 15 dexnav encounters. Wailmer,Aron,Poochyena(Took me over 900 ecounters), Sewaddle,Deino, Skorupi, Gulpin, Seedot, Machoke(JOHNCENA), and so many more... |
So after a painful 474 DexNav encounter, I finally came across the shiny Marill that I've been hunting for. Here's a pic of it.
Spoiler:
|
I have encountered no shiny Pokemon so far. And trust me, I have played a lot. I have the most terrible luck with shinies. Been playing since Crystal and have actually never encountered one. :O
Perhaps I should get into breeding... |
Just a Clauncher I bred for and since it's perfect in every way I plan on EV training it with the most optimal moveset, but I also finally transferred over the five shinies I got in Sapphire way back when. Linoone, Ninjask, Shedinja, Ninetales, and Sceptile came full-circle by being in my Alpha Sapphire. I have hundreds of shinies due to formerly having a trade thread back in 4th gen, but those and the Floatzel I caught in Pearl are unique in that I got them without any fancy tricks like pokeradar, dexnav, or RNG or anything, I just got lucky.
