Got a Shiny Male Machop by chaining today. It has 4 perfect IVs and disappointedly a Timid Nature. He also has the Guts Ability which gives welcome attack boost shenanigans.
I plan to EV train it, evolve him and take him to the Battle Tree. |
Haven't started hunting yet, but I really want Sandygast! That shiny is my favorite in gen 7 I think.
|
I randomly found a shiny Haunter while looking for Mimikyu and got a shiny Fomantis via SOS. Now that I have the shiny charm, I'm going to SOS for a shiny Grubin
|
Found a shiny cutiefly randomly at the beginning of my playthrough, and then I sos chained for a shiny rockruff a few weeks ago. I'm now trying to breed a shiny rockruff since the shiny I initially found was calm nature, and had only some decent IV's... I still love it though <3

Attachment 81068 after a very long grueling chaining session I got this fella
|
So I've got a fun story:3 I caught my first shiny completely by accident and I almost critical killed it in my first attack:D A shiny Klefki:) I lov'm so much! I named him Kingdom Key:P
|
I haven't actually searched for shinies yet but when I do I think I'm gonna go for a Mimikyu, that would be really cool.
|
Spoiler:
Finally, some shinies for me! 8D Mudbray was found at 36 encounters, while Fomantis was found at 84 encounters. |
Shiny 4 perfect IV Staryu, who I've named Azura. No hidden ability, but hey, I'm not complaining. I've named it Azura. Going to go for another one so I can have a Starmie as well.
|
I have found 2 Bonusweet, one with Oblivous and the other one with sweet veil.
|
I been pretty lucky this new gen 2 random shinies Tauros and Trumbeak and 2 SOS shinies Mimikuy and Beldum by the way does any know a trustworthy trader I'm thinking about breeding a shiny Scyther and since it only evolves when traded I worried about not getting it back like my shiny Machoke in platinum.
|
I've watched myself a shiny Mareanie just all of the sudden while trying to get one with a good nature By now it has evolved into a Toxapex and made a dangerous addition to my team Here's a picture
Spoiler:

After sos chaining multiple times up to or past 70 WITH a shiny charm, I've had no such luck :(
|
I've gotten two so far.
One was a shiny Metapod that I found randomly trying to find a Pichu for my team. The other was a Pikipek while I was trying to SOS chain for HA... so I could hatch a shiny one in a Moon Ball. Project has been put aside as I breed a million other things instead. I probably won't get into proper MM until I can import a 6IV Japanese Ditto via Bank. Pictures below. :) Spoiler:
|
I have just caught my second shiny of this generation - a Roggenrola at Ten Carat Hill.
I was actually trying to look for the Island Scan Deino when I found it. Sadly couldn't find the poor thing. |
Ah yes, I've caught plenty of Shiny Pokemon, all SOS method. I've caught Magikarp, Pikipek (which I gave the fully evolved form to my boyfriend as a thank you gift for helping me complete my PokeDex to get the Shiny Charm), Alola Rattata, Rockruff, Caterpie, Sandygast, Cutiefly, Smeargle, Delibird, Eevee, and Cubone. All of them are already fully evolved, and a few of them I'm using for Battle Tree such as the Sandygast (now a Palossand), the Eevee (now an Umbreon), and the Caterpie (now a Butterfree). My current hunt is for a Shiny Yungoos, SOS method.
|
Got a Shiny Rufflet at around 250 SOS calls. He has a Careful Nature and 4 IVs. He is now a Shiny Blue backed Braviary and had the right nature and IVs to help me breed a high IV Mandibuzz. :)

this is funny because I just chained: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C1xyl8qWEAEjifX.jpg |
Back when I needed wimpod in the dex, I went to encounter one. First ever wild wimpod encounter got me my shiny wimpod.
Also got a shiny golbat in Resolution Cave or whatever the place was called. Was going there for unrelated reasons and just randomly encountered it. These were only like a day apart haha. |
My luck with shinies has been very positive so far. While I was trying to fill my entire Alola Pokédex (capturing all the 301 available so far), I found two shinies, a shiny Cubone while looking for a Kangaskhan through SOS, and somehow got a shiny Jangmo-o without any SOS or chaining whatsoever. Considering that you need large SOS chains to increase the shiny encounter rate, I'd say that even considering the 1/4096 rate set in Gen VI, I got seriously lucky. I've since completed the 301 goal a few months ago, and now that I got the Shiny Charm, I can basically get shiny Pokémon ridiculously easily now, especially if I'm doing Masuda method or any other dirty trick. I do have also a Shiny Lv. 100 Alakazam I got from a friend, but it was obviously too good to be legit. 103 hours of in-game time is an impressive record (from the 96 hours in HeartGold).

Spoiler:
Congratulations. Shiny Mandibuzz looks very nice and Vullaby looks pretty good too. I am trying to get a Shiny Vullaby through Masuda Method (I have Sun) with no luck so far. (About 100 eggs). |
Someone wonder traded me a shiny level 100 Salazzle nicknamed "Christmas". Still no shinies of my own though.
|
After 7 Gens I finally have my first ever hatched Shiny:
It's a Vullaby named Amanda that came after 83 eggs. (Thought it was a bit more) Her parents are my Shiny Braviary and a Japanese Mandibuzz. She has a Careful Nature and whilst only 2IV I plan to use the Gold Bottle I got from Poke Pelego today. :) Mandibuzz is one of my favourite Pokemon and I am delighted to finally hatch a Shiny. :) |
I didn't encounter a single shiny during regular gameplay. (Altough, I got a shiny Yungoos via Wonder Trade... named Trump.) When I started completing Pokédex I got a shiny Goomy and a shiny Bewear! 8)
|
I got a shiny Pikipek in the beginning of the game, before I'd even seen 50 Pokemon! Yeah, that was pretty lucky.
It's a Trumbeak now, and it's called Shinyyyyyyytyyy or something (that T is there because I can't be asked to go to the Name Rater) |
