Then why did they make shiny forms for the tapus and the UB's? What's the point o.0

Candra Software January 22nd, 2017 5:41 AM

So the game doesn't glitch or freeze if one hacks their shiny forms into the game? Or in case they decide to make shiny events for them?

After three frustrating failed over two hour chains looking for a Shiny Sandile I found a Shiny Drifloon after 19 SOS calls.

The Yellow and Sky Blue is a very nice Shiny. She is now a Shiny Yellow Drifblim.

AliceBlaze January 22nd, 2017 7:51 AM

The only two shinies I caught in Moon so far is a Caterpie that I randomly found before I got the shiny charm and a Kangaskhan from an SOS chain shortly after I got the shiny charm.

at least I've been lucky on the GTS with Type: Nulls

Shiny Type: Null? If you have any extras, I'd love one!

It's nice that Type: Null isn't shiny locked like the Tapus and the legends.

Although shiny Solgaleo looks kind of strange.. o.o

AliceBlaze January 22nd, 2017 9:31 AM

When the game first came out, I'm pretty sure Serebii said that Type:Null was shiny locked (although it wasn't on the list last time I looked). If I knew sooner that shiny Type:Null can be obtained, I would've tried to get it.

Akuryou Inushii January 22nd, 2017 2:32 PM

There's some proof on YouTube. But the cutscene before you get T:N is ridiculously long. Not as long as the starter cutscene takes though.

SOS chaining can be either really fast or really long. I hate the longer chains, honestly.. I'm on a drought.

Dragon January 24th, 2017 6:15 AM

I have about 21 shinies, though the majority of them are shiny Eevee in hopes of completing a shiny Eevee set, oho.

I'm hoping to maybe chain for a Shiny Bagon soon and hopefully have images once I get a better camera. >>

LilyGardy January 24th, 2017 6:23 AM

Yesterday I got my first Beast Ball Shiny. A Male Sandile in Haina Desert. He appeared after a two hour chain. (5th Attempt for Shiny Sandile)

I put him to sleep with my Lilligant before throwing a critical capture Beast Ball that worked. He has a Mild Nature and four perfect IVs in the right stats.

I named him Sidney and he is now a Shiny Krookodile (Which is an eye-catching Shiny) with the Battle Royal Ribbon. :)

LilyGardy January 24th, 2017 10:31 AM

Found a Shiny Male Riolu today by SOS chaining in a two hour chain. I False Swiped it, it broke out of an Ultra Ball, kept calling reinforcements and I couldn't put it to sleep due to Final Gambit.

It broke out of a Timer Ball then it SOSed a few more times until it called ANOTHER SHINY MALE RIOLU.

I could not catch both so I had little choice but to KO the original shiny and toss Timer Balls at the new Shiny until one worked.

He has a Naive Nature with 4 IVs (Atk, SpDef, Spd) and a low IV in Def that can be bottle capped.

My latest Shiny is heading to the Battle Tree. RIP original Shiny Riolu.

Akuryou Inushii January 24th, 2017 3:57 PM

Today was probably one of the strangest experiences I've ever had with Wonder trade. So I'm trading away some Alolan Sandshrew (they're shiny). And I got a shiny Dialga..
I get the feeling it's not legit. Level 100, Trainer is named AuS YoshiOG2 (with an TID of 12345) caught in a Dusk Ball, Pokerus, Modest nature, caught in Hoenn.

Can anyone verify if this is a legit 'mon, or hacked?

Candra Software January 24th, 2017 4:02 PM

Not sure if there's such a location in ORAS where you can get Dialga, and judging by that trainer ID it's most likely edited.

User19sq January 24th, 2017 4:22 PM

I've obtained shinies for trading purposes, so far. Now it's time I get one for myself. Here's to finding a shiny, female Popplio! Has better chances than chaining, but can still take a long time. XD;;;;;

In my experience, I use Thunder Wave instead. Works far better than inducing sleep. And in case you weren't aware: Synchronizers can help with natures, although if you were doing that, then sorry to hear that you were gifted with the other 50% chance of it.

Normally I use Sleep but as the Poni Grove Riolu know Final Gambit (Which doesn't affect Ghosts) I had to leave Alolan Marowak in.

Naive isn't a terrible nature for Lucario (I already have a Timid Special Aura Pokemon in Gen 6). And with the real lack of synchronisers pre-bank (Abra, Espeon and Umbreon I think) I leave natures to chance as breeding Abra which can only be evolved to Kadabra is no fun.

All Synchronizers are either Psychic-type, or Umbreon. I actually use Umbreon due to its wickedly-good defensive traits (by comparison), and its uses of either physical or special attacks, and Moonlight. Level it up o a high-enough level, and you're set (with all missing is Leppa Berries and a False Swiper).

There's a glitch in the games where the Synchronizer will use the nature of the lead Pokemon for this mechanic. For example: my lead Pokemon is a false-swiping Kommo-o, Jolly, then I send out my Adamant Umbreon. It'll use Jolly for its 50% chance. So even if you like Naive on Riolu, it's good to know this info for the case you might wanna reroll for another one. -w-

Nick January 26th, 2017 1:46 PM

I have yet to find a shiny, but I did get Pokérus!!!!!

tect0nic January 26th, 2017 10:39 PM

I randomly encountered a shiny Tentacool when I was progressing with my game. Now, I have a shiny Magikarp from the Chinese New Year special.

Final Gambit being on all Riolu means that in terms of Nature I am going to have to leave it to chance as Final Gambit causes Riolu to be KOed.

With Bank now released I can breed a load of Ralts with various nature's evolve them to Gardevoir to try and get ideal natures on Pokemon. Like a Jolly one for Rockruff. And keep Alolan Marowak for False Swiping.

Akuryou Inushii January 27th, 2017 3:57 PM

Last night was very eventful for me in terms of shinies! I got my first full odds random shiny, Wingull, a shiny Pikipek in 13 SOS calls, and a shiny Togedemaru after 41 SOS calls.

Also, if anyone is wonder trading, look out for a shiny level 30 Latios, OT Cain! I cloned my legitimate one from the Eon Ticket event in ORAS. ;) After 3,000 run away encounters, this baby shone for me!

I think you can get Dialga from flying in the sky with your respective Latias/Latios, but I doubt that TID is legitimate.. what are the odds that those numbers generate in that exact order?

LilyGardy January 30th, 2017 10:51 AM

Got my second Beast Ball Shiny this Gen. A Shiny Riolu after 37 SOS calls.

He is Male with the Inner Focus Ability. He also has an Adamant Nature. I was not Synchronising so am pleasantly surprised to get an Adamant Nature. Riolu is a nice Shiny. :)

I already have two Shiny Lucarios. A Timid one caught in Gen 6 and a Naive one.

The Beast Ball really fits the Shiny Riolu line. :)

Lunar January 30th, 2017 11:35 AM

None yet, though tbh I haven't really searched much, might have a day where I just grind for a shiny soon :3

tenchi February 1st, 2017 9:14 PM

No shinnies found somehow...or hatched....somehow.

I did get a shiny porygonz and a shiny porygon2 in trades however. I guess someone traded P2 because it had timid nature, which isnt amazing on a porygon2, but both porygons have perfect ivs, so theyre still boss.

icycatelf February 2nd, 2017 2:51 PM

It wasn't until the post-game that I found my first Shiny. I had been breeding for a Shiny Alolan Sandshrew and running around Mt. Lanakila for months, but just when I decided to take a break to run around the region in hope of finding any random Shiny, a full-odds Shiny Alolan Sandshrew pops up!

http://i.imgur.com/kF9kuWC.jpg

Awful nature, but she's going on my main team anyway. Also, this was my first time catching a Shiny with my favorite Poké Ball: the Friend Ball. :D

Here are a few more full-odds Shinies I've found since:

I'm currently trying to breed a Shiny male Burmy in a Moon Ball without using the Masuda Method or the Shiny Charm. @[email protected]
