Any shinies yet?
 
On my quest to catch a pichu in the beginning of the game that first pichu was so rare that I actually found a shiny pikipek before I found one pichu lol. Anyone else find a shiny yet.

DigiornosPizza November 18th, 2016 8:06 PM

im trying to get myself a shiny rowlet.
currently on hour 3 of soft resetting...

Oh, man. Good luck. Soft resetting for the starters take a while for this game.

Cozzie November 18th, 2016 8:52 PM

haven't really gone for shinies yet but probs after i finish the game i will haha

shinyexploud November 19th, 2016 6:02 AM

just received my first wonder trade shiny (mimikyuu lvl 42). Does anyone know how I can check if it's hacked or legit?

Rain November 19th, 2016 7:15 AM

I received a hacked shiny litten over wonder trade. I've kept it for breeding later on.

Altaria November 19th, 2016 3:48 PM

I MM'd for a shiny Bounsweet and just got mine on my 7th egg hatch! I named her La'hiku, short for "Lucky Seven" in Hawaiian. (✿◠‿◠)

Neo Blackheart November 19th, 2016 3:51 PM

I know someone who has 7 Shinies from Sun and moon.
He has a 151 hour stream going right now but here is a guide he has up for it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HcQ9F2zPQI&t=3s

I saw him grab 4 of those shinies yesterday within like 50 encounters.

Hikamaru November 21st, 2016 3:41 AM

Still haven't gotten a shiny here yet. May post later if I do find one.

Florges November 21st, 2016 4:28 AM

No shinies here yet. I don't give it a lot of attention during the actual game. Now that I'm in post game I may try.

WildJimmyHasAppeared November 21st, 2016 5:33 AM

I found a shiny Diglett and ran without thinking about it. I wish i would have caught it. At least it wasnt a shiny that i really liked. xD

Hikamaru November 21st, 2016 7:14 AM

As of posting this, I just got my first ever 7th Gen shiny. It was a Yungoos on Route 2!

blue November 21st, 2016 7:22 AM

None as of yet. I have a feeling it will be a good while before I encounter my first legit shiny. I know the rate is something like 1 in 4,000 but eh, I'm not really seeking them out just yet anyways.

I personally haven't had any yet but my brother found a shiny Trumbeak before I had even opened the game...

One of my friends has also bred like 5 shinies already. Sandygast, all 3 starters, Dhelmise, etc. It seems to be higher this generation?

Meganium November 21st, 2016 9:17 AM

A good friend of mine caught a Shiny Cutiefly under 100 times. Shiny chaining is a lot easier this generation compared to the previous.

I think I heard the shiny rate in this game was lowered to like, 1 in 4000. I've only had my copy of Moon for four days now and I now have my first shiny, which was my aforementioned Yungoos (now a Gumshoos).

Somewhere_ November 21st, 2016 4:37 PM

I would really love a shiny Rockruff. It sounds like shinies are somewhat common?

I believe it's been 1 in 4,096 since X/Y, which is half of what it was before then (1 in 8,192). Speaking of "1 in 4,000" though, there's an NPC in Sun/Moon that literally says the odds of finding a shiny are about 1 in 4,000.

I haven't encountered any shiny Pokemon yet, though.

WHHHHHHYYYYY?!?!?!?!? Alolan Diglett is GAWD! ; ~ ;

peteed November 22nd, 2016 8:08 AM

Trying to get a Bagon/Salamence on route 3 I got a Shiny Sassy Cutiefly just now :D

Ho-Oh November 22nd, 2016 9:47 PM

The other day I was looking for Mimikyu. Found a shiny Golbat before I found a Mimikyu. Still, random encounter is nice.

Also I swear if I get a shiny Fearow I will be annoyed.

TheLegendaryGuy November 22nd, 2016 10:10 PM

I just caught a shiny Alolan Meowth. It sure looks dark!

walnut3072 November 22nd, 2016 11:09 PM

I've just caught a shiny Araquanid right in the middle of having a doubt on choosing Pkm for my team. Since her base Speed is 42 and having the Sassy nature, I'm gonna have Trick Room team, I guess.

You know something is messed up when a regular fish is rarer than a shiny. @[email protected]

Did you focusing on the bubbling spots? The chance of encountering Feebas are much higher there. I caught one with this way.

CidHazard November 23rd, 2016 2:42 AM

I feel encountering shinies is way to easy in this gen...

I hunted and already found 3 (Being rockruff, formantis, and a freakin male soladin DAMNIT!) in under 24 hours (No shiny charm)... I also feel that SOS chaining is way to easy to execute unlike chain fishing or pokeradar chaining which needed your full attention.

Also found a random shiny goldeen while fishing for a Wishywashy

Eastonn8 November 23rd, 2016 5:18 AM

I got a shiny Growlithe! Too bad it has justified :/

DigiornosPizza November 23rd, 2016 3:02 PM

Day six of SRing for that rowlet. it would be dumb to give up now so...

Akuryou Inushii November 24th, 2016 8:21 PM

Pretty sure I ran into a shiny Mimikyu during the ghost trial, because it looked more grey than usual.. except I didn't see the sparkles and I couldn't catch it anyways.. RIP Mimikyu.

Burizado November 25th, 2016 12:05 AM

Shiny Rockruff(Lycanroc Midnight now) after like 70 call, my only one so far! Starting a hunt for eevee right now. :>

ShyRayq November 25th, 2016 12:14 AM

Got a random Shiny Golduck at Poni Gauntlet. Pretty surprising, and scared as I didn't have my catching team on hand. Luckily only 1 Ultra Ball was needed.

If it was indeed a Shiny it's Shiny form will be viewable in your Pokedex. Uncatchable Shinys are annoying however.

I'm going to try for a Shiny Rockruff (I want a Shiny Midday Lycanroc) later today.

Kimochiru November 25th, 2016 2:21 AM

I was just looking for the fire Oricorio, when, suddenly, a shiny Petilil appeared!
How classic! The randomly encountered shiny.

I threw a Pokeball at it, and what do you know? It was the single-shake capture. That was some great luck!

James169 November 25th, 2016 2:45 AM

First time I used a fishing rod I found a shiny magikarp.

same here on 2 different games lol, no luck

Anastasia.R November 25th, 2016 10:11 PM

Second day of release I caught a shiny Makuhita (called it Lil' Maku and it evolved to Hariyama) and two days later, I got a shiny Bounsweet (nicknamed Jolyne)! It's beautiful fully evolved now :
http://www.serebii.net/Shiny/SM/763.png
Hoping to hunt for more shinies later! òuó9


jangocatt November 26th, 2016 8:06 PM

Just found a shiny Fomantis after 15:55 of play time. Was just grind training for the next trial and almost missed seeing it.

jdprager November 27th, 2016 2:58 PM

I was walking into the Abandoned Supermarket after the trial to see if I could find a mimikyu. I got 3 steps in the door, and a shiny Haunter appeared. I'm wildly excited for the pure white Mega Gengar.

Freshoutl00k November 27th, 2016 3:21 PM

Currently searching for shiny mimikyu...

It's been 5 days of chaining so far. The one time I stopped to continue the story I find a shiny Murkrow. I felt pretty good, but like... I want a mimikyu...

SketchWorld November 27th, 2016 3:24 PM

got a shiny rowlet the second try (my console shut down before saving so i had to start all over again)

i felt like the luckiest person in the world

Florges November 27th, 2016 3:45 PM

128 eggs in doing the Mastuda Method... still no shiny Rowlet. :c

RickGrimes November 27th, 2016 11:32 PM

I found a shiny Gastly in the cemetery towards the beginning. Honestly wasn't expecting to encounter a shiny this fast.

https://scontent-ort2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15171334_10154135986751446_1615539064326679005_n.jpg?oh=66a42a687638403d24c584b65131cfdd&oe=58C6BACF

LilyGardy November 28th, 2016 12:38 AM

It seems my Gen 6 luck has deserted me. Not one Shiny yet in about 30 hours playtime.

I think I will go for the Shiny Charm before I start call chaining. I am doing a GTS trading spree to get tricky entries like Electivire.

I really want a Shiny Bounsweet though and may try for one once I finish the game.

Edit - Tried for a Shiny Bounsweet and caught it after a call chain. She is now a Shiny Tsareena.v:)

LilyGardy November 30th, 2016 10:53 AM

Whilst looking for a Black Sludge for my Alolan Muk I found a Shiny Alolan Grimer in the first town by SOS chaining.

Shiny Alolan Grimer is purple...just like regular Kanto Grimer. :0

I must admit however Alolan Muk looks better in purple than green and onto my team it goes. :)

Random note - If you change a Pokemon's pokedex image to its shiny form if you've seen caught it it's profile image changes too to match it's shiny colours. A nice touch. :)

KattsTheName November 30th, 2016 11:33 AM

I haven't run into a shiny myself, but I did get two from Wonder Trade. A (most likely) hacked Litten since it's level 5, Adamant and has all 31 IVs. I also got an Oricorio and I just LOVE it's shiny, so I'm super happy! I was hunting for a shiny Pikipek in my Moon save for a while with no luck.. So I gave up and reseted my game.

Azelf Ibrahim November 30th, 2016 9:23 PM

I caught a shiny Fomantis trying to chain for a Castform in Lush Jungle.

Frozocrone November 30th, 2016 11:21 PM

Just hatched a 4 IV Shiny Love Ball Vulpix with Egg Moves and Snow Warning. Disappointment doesn't even begin to describe it...if it was five IV's I'd be buzzing and would use it over my Moon Ball variant...

At least it's GTS able?

Might as well get the shiny charm and try again lol

It's a very subtle change and I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't paid attention to the red star.

This will improve my resolve. I will get another Shiny Vulpix and it will be 5IV's.

MightyBewear December 1st, 2016 9:07 PM

Shiny Pelliper and granbull are the shiny I got and probrably will never used both since I don't like granbull and pelliper to begin with..oh well! haha

Fourth The Tyrant December 1st, 2016 10:11 PM

I spent a few days s.o.s'ing and have so far found 2 shiny rockruff and a cubone. I'm thinking of trying for a turtonater next. And this is without the shiny charm, I hope my luck keeps up when I get it.

Devil in the Mirror December 2nd, 2016 1:03 AM

I have never once in my life gone shiny hunting in a Pokemon game. Which is probably why my first ever legit, nonscripted shiny was a Zubat I caught on Sun. She's now a Crobat named Batgirl and will never leave my party because Crobat is beast.

User19sq December 2nd, 2016 1:08 AM

Warning: Amounted insanity present in the following story:

So, on a fluke, I ended up chaining a shiny Crabrawler and catching it. While I was happy to get it, I was saddened by the fact that it's a female (I'm very picky with my Pokémon's genders). So last night, at 11:30 PM, my Mimikyu and I went hunting for berries, and I encountered a Crabrawler SOS battle in the Secluded Shore.

Fourteen agonizing, non-stop hours later into the same battle, I find another shiny Crabrawler.... female.

My Mimikyu's attack EVs were completely filled. And every single one of those Crabrawler knew Bubble Beam; they were like angry Vegetas shooting out tons of projectiles at my Mimikyu until she was developed in an explosion of dust and light. And when those Vegeta crabs finally gave up... Mimikyu jumped out in a surprise and OHKOed every single one of them. She was maxed out in Bulk Ups. And she knows Leech Life. I nearly ran out of Leppa Berries. I had five other weak Pokémon in my party for the purpose of completing the dex... and every single one of them evolved once the battle was over!

So now I have two female Crabrawler shinies in my box, one with it's Hidden Ability. I missed so many Kyurem battles in Shuffle. It was 1:30-ish PM when it ended. I fell asleep... hard.

Altaria December 3rd, 2016 1:50 PM

Update: I now have my MM Shiny Tsareena, along with two completely random encounters; Skarmory and Bagon.

LilyGardy December 4th, 2016 12:03 AM

I now have my 3rd Gen 7 Shiny - A Rockruff. She appeared in about 180 SOS calls. She has her hidden ability Steadfast.

She has four perfect IVS and is now a shiny Blue Lycanroc. :)

MightyBewear December 4th, 2016 2:50 PM

Got two new shiny today, a caterpie ( with the S.O.S method, even though i was just training hp EV for my pikipek) and an alola Raticate, which was random appear when I wanted to level up some pokemon! :)

bobandbill December 4th, 2016 6:35 PM

During my playthrough of the story, I found two shiny Pokemon, both in one day and both from dumb luck! One was a shiny Magnemite which was neat but I already have some of those (back from 4th gen Pokeradar), and one a shiny Alolan Meowth, which joined my extended team. :B

The Evil Mewtwo December 4th, 2016 10:07 PM

I don't have any shiny Pokemons yet but I'm not disappointed yet. I'm used to normal coloured Pokemons.

Paleoctopus December 5th, 2016 12:09 AM

Caught a shiny mudbray while looking for an island scan rhyhorn..decided to break out the beast balls for the rare occasion ;)

Jeanster4 December 5th, 2016 2:19 AM

Caught a shiny sandile on my first visit to the desert. Caught a shiny Smeargle while i was trying to evolve my eevee into a Sylveon. And as well i caught a shiny Bewear while i was trying to chain for Unnerve Bewear.

Meithiri December 5th, 2016 2:41 PM

My first encounter in diglett cave just as i entered was a shiny zubat.
Just farmed a shiny cutiefly aswell.

Thunderflare December 5th, 2016 9:09 PM

I got a shiny Vikivolt through Wonder Trade.

LilyGardy December 7th, 2016 12:34 AM

I now have 5 Gen 7 Shines after chaining for a Shiny Pikipek after about 110 encounters. It is now a Shiny Toucannon. I really like the pink beak.

My latest shiny is a Shiny Orange Cottonee. It took about 180 SOS calls. I plan to use it for a Grass Monotype that I will do once I get Moon.

Death December 7th, 2016 1:55 AM

I hatched a shiny feebas a few days ago. I didn't expect it at all since I was only gathering a few for trade fodder.

Jeanster4 December 7th, 2016 3:47 AM

Just last night i hatched a shiny wimpod and shiny cubone. Both were just me trying to hatch for the right ivs and nature. Both i have to bottlecap the last stat they are missing but they are pretty :)

Hands December 7th, 2016 4:04 AM

I've only ever found a handful of shinys and most of those were in Gen2, but i'm holding out hope for a cute little shiny Alolan Geodude in Sun :)

Sektor December 7th, 2016 12:33 PM

Unfortunately, not yet. I know I will eventually, but my tradition of running into Shiny Zubats will most likely persist in this generation as well.

Khoshi December 7th, 2016 8:05 PM

Second ever wild Pokemon as soon as I started Moon was a shiny Caterpie...yeah, I don't know how, either.

Death December 8th, 2016 5:34 AM

I got a shiny poliwag while trying to SOS chain for a politoed.

VitalEcho December 8th, 2016 5:46 AM

Currently chaining for a Mimikyu. No clue how long but time-wise I spent about 2 hours last night on one battle, which is currently still going until I can pick it up again.

xerxes615 December 8th, 2016 6:00 AM

Just chained a shiny caterpie last night. I named it Bullion.

Sabrewulf238 December 8th, 2016 9:48 AM

I heard it's possible for shinies to show up on Isle Abeens at Poke Pelago....and there's nothing you can do to make them more likely to stay.

That would be painful....

LilyGardy December 8th, 2016 11:00 AM

I have found no sure Shinys in the wild but yesterday I was wondertraded a Shiny Zubat.

Today I obtained a Shiny Male Primarina on the GTS for a spare Legendary I had lying around. It's a beautiful Shiny but it's stats aren't great. I may yet try to hatch a Shiny Popplio once I get the Shiny Charm.

Thunderflare December 8th, 2016 9:08 PM

I got a shiny Vikivolt through Wonder Trade.

Kameken December 9th, 2016 10:12 PM

I managed to chain a shiny bounsweet into existence, evolved it into steenee, and won't be evolving it again.

I'm trying for a salandit right now, and you can be sure it'll be a good long while before I get one that's both female and shiny.

Amaris December 10th, 2016 6:06 AM

Yes. I've managed to catch my first shiny just a few hours ago, actually! A shiny Ditto that had shown up during my (SOS) chaining! :)

Nusdogg December 10th, 2016 9:09 AM

I have a shiny Pikachu. :D

MightyBewear December 10th, 2016 10:26 AM

Just get a Shiny Gumshoos while training my Sylveon so I it can help me find HA with skill swap! :)

Kameken December 10th, 2016 8:36 PM

Turns out I was wrong, the first shiny salandit I found was female.

That was pretty cool. Think I'll go for an eevee next, then hold off for a while on the next one so they don't stop being special to me.

Mawa December 10th, 2016 9:15 PM

Tonight I got a shiny Lillipup, my first ever wild shiny !! :) Bad nature and not the best Pokemon, but hey... shiny.

I am glad we have an animation telling us that we got a shiny, and that I didn't miss it (I was watching a movie in the same time). The shiny and non shiny forms of Lillipup are so alike! I would have knocked it out.

LilyGardy December 11th, 2016 5:30 AM

I tried to chain for a Shiny Vulpix today and got it in 50 SOS calls.

She has a Brave Nature which isn't ideal and 4 IVs (HP, SpA, Def, Spd). It's not the most noticeable Shiny as it's eyes only turn slightly purple. She is now a Shiny Alolan Ninetales which is a nice feminine pink hue. :)

I plan to get the Shiny Charm before going for my next Shiny.

Z25 December 12th, 2016 11:18 AM

I have several. A cubone, a Rockruff, a Eggexcute that I found while trying to complete the dex, not shiny hunt, a shiny salandit femal (first shiny one), and I got a shiny Hakomo last night in a beast ball!

SOS chaining can be pretty good.

aliland198 December 12th, 2016 6:42 PM

Well, I was searching for a Magnemite that was holding a Metal Coat, and I ran into a shiny one! I named it Rhodium and as I was training it in Melemele Sea, I came across a shiny Luvdisc, which I named Yellow Tang!

Wow what luck!

I just chained my first shiny. Little Pikipek, chain of 94 on route 1. I love shiny Toucannon. My Smeargle was only level 31 so I didn't have too many options in regards to Pokemon, but I think I might try for Eevee next.

DyingWillFlareon December 13th, 2016 6:36 PM

I actually chained a shiny Caterpie, Im so happy. :'D

stzy December 14th, 2016 1:42 AM

Got the shiny Eevee, chain was at 114 I think. Chaining in this generation is stupidly easy. If you're careful and pay attention to what you're doing, there's literally no way to break it. Players hunting for shinies in the PokeRadar days will understand my amazement.

EDIT: Just got a shiny Fomantis. I love this!

I just started the game and Iam also trying to find to find a Pichu.Its super rare :( XD

Also I will start chaining shinies after completing the main game.

JesuDesu22 December 14th, 2016 7:41 PM

I've caught/bred 11 shiny Pokemon in Moon so far. c:

1. Popplio (Bred on accident while actually trying to breed a shiny Eevee)
2. Eevee (Bred on purpose after 1600 ish eggs)
3. Pikipek (Was testing out SOS chaining for shiny Pokemon)
4. Mudbray (Random encounter)
5. Petilil (More SOS chaining)
6. Bounsweet (Even more SOS chaining)
7. Ditto (SOS chaining, was getting one with 4 IV's for my boyfriend's breeding, since we play different language games)
8. Rowlet (Bred it on purpose after 1300 ish eggs)
9. Zubat (Even MORE SOS chaining)
10. Goomy (Bred it on purpose after 150 ish eggs)
11. Grubbin (OMG SOS CHAINZ)

I got the shiny charm in like the first week of the game's release so I've had lots of time to get these. XD

Kameken December 14th, 2016 8:36 PM

Got the eevee, named it Josuke and ended up evolving it into a vaporeon.

Like I said, I'm holding off on shiny hunting for a while now, at least until I get a few more post game things done. Definitely need to find those last 3 zygarde cells. I'll probably go for a sneasel when the time comes, though.

morrison December 15th, 2016 4:04 AM

I have caught a shiny cottonee.

Adam0n December 15th, 2016 11:02 AM

No luck with shinies in Alola for me yet. The only one I have is a Conkeldurr from Y

Disolia December 15th, 2016 1:33 PM

It's been three generations since my last random encounter shiny, but I have finally got another one! This time in the form of a shiny Fomantis, I got at the start of my adventure! He's the main pokemon on my team, I spoil him way too much, but that's because I love him. <3

AleXShi1 December 15th, 2016 1:42 PM

Got a shiny sandygast, rockruff and grubbin all by SOS battling and a Masuda Method Rowlet
Lookin great

Oblivion Wing December 15th, 2016 2:49 PM

I consider myself very lucky, I was hatching Laprases, and out of nowhere (not even a Masuda method) I got a shiny one.... I beat the biggest odds in hatching it since both parents were from the same region (my game) :)

Calypsio December 16th, 2016 4:12 AM

I caught a shiny araquanid a few days ago. It was just a random encounter.

User19sq December 16th, 2016 2:35 PM

According to a grunt squatting outside Game Freak's headquarters, the shiny rate is now 4,000 to 1. So you pretty much have to pull all stops to breed for a shiny (charm, Mesuda, etc.)...

stzy December 16th, 2016 3:02 PM

That's crazy. Can I ask why you're breeding and not just using SOS? Honest question.

Iron Tiff December 16th, 2016 4:13 PM

No wild shinies yet, but in the process of breeding for my Nanu team, I've hatched a shiny Meowth and Sandile. Must be a sign! XD

PlatinumDude December 16th, 2016 5:15 PM

Since getting the Dewpider, I got a shiny Lillipup by walking around randomly, followed by Pikipek via SOS chaining after 3 summons. During the Pikipek encounter, the shiny Pikipek summoned another shiny Pikipek after 3 more summons and I had to KO one of them. The shiny Pikipek kept calling for help and I had to keep on defeating its reinforcements at around a dozen times before it failed. That nearly drove me to insanity because I was afraid that the second Pikipek would KO itself with Struggle after 75 turns. When I did catch it though, it came with its Hidden Ability.

The Evil Mewtwo December 16th, 2016 5:29 PM

I have 2 bonusweet and one of them has sweet veil.

I've caught a shiny Caterpie & Gumshoos by SOS chaining. Even though, I was merely EV training.

Is it me or is it the easiest way to find shinies?
