First Shiny Ever - Golbat
 
Hey guys - I was leveling up my pokes on victory road and i came across my first shiny ever - Golbat. I was lucky because i didn't even realize it was shiny till i hit it once as i was button mashing and watching the tv. Lucky because it was my dusclops siesmic tossing and not salamence or starmie who would have nuked it. It's like greenish/brown with pink wings. I've never used any of the bats before so any movesets/strategy would be useful.

Golbat Lv.40
Hasty (+ Spd / - Def)
'Inner Focus'
HP 119 / Att 81 / Def 61 / Satt 65 / Sdef 69 / Spd 95
IV's : Hp 24 / Att 30 / Def 19 / Satt 21 / Sdef 11 / Spd 26

The IV's are from Legendary Pokemon - IV Calculator and have a % so those are the medium or median not good with math so those are the middle #'s of the possible IV's.

His moves as are <Bite / Wing Attack / Confuse Ray / Air Cutter> - Its pretty cool the No042 at the top of his info screen is like yellow or gold or something.

<Edit> I just went onto smogon and saw that if i level him up to crobat he turns PINK - WTF i finally find a shiny when i wasn't even looking hence golbat instead of something good like a purple swampert and he even has pretty good iv's and nat for a choicebander and he's gonna turn pink. I might just keep him as a golbat and make him hate me by shoving bitters down his throat.

My first shiny was a Golbat too. Way to go White Lotus!

Good Attack EVs and not such a bad nature at all.

Strap a CB on and give it Sludge Bomb, Aeriel Ace, Shadow Ball, and Steel Wing or something like that I guess. :\

Please stay on topic. There is another forum for you guys to discuss shinies. Also, don't give Steel Wing to Crobat.

- Sludge Bomb

Dang Shanecdavis - you read me perfectly. I was gonna do that exactly but give it frustration instead of return because i'm gonna shove bitters down its throat so it never turns into a pink bat<not that there's anything wrong with that> The EV's are gonna be basic choicebander +ATT +SPD.

Seriously though, I was so excited to get a shiny and i was totally digging its mossy green color, like he was camoflaged and then the cold water he's gonna turn pink. I mean what are the chances that the 1 shiny i'm gonna get this side of another 8000 pokes and i perfer its regular purple color. The different color is all that makes a shiny so cool other then the bragging rights. I was just about to export all my important pokes and start a new emerald for swampert and the 1 shiny poke i'd really kill for is purple swampert and now i only have to hatch 8000 MFing eggs to get there.

<STUPID PINK BAT>

Yomama that samurai cat is crakking me up.<Don't do drugs kids>
