Another shiny question
I just want to be shure. If I start a new game in Fire Red and go to get my starter, and it isn't shiny, could I restart agin untill I get a shiny??? I know it will take a long time, but what other way can you get shiny charizard in GBA, right!?!?!?
Please help. |
This is the only way to get shiny starters in the game.
Have fun, as this may take a long time. There's a 1 in 8192 chance of a Pokemon being shiny at any time. |
and if you give up choice number 2 is to cheat, basically your wasting your time when you do this

Yeah, it's really headachingly annoying. The 1/8192 chance is constant, by the way, so 8191 battles won't do good. That's also the same chance you get for hatching Shiny Pokemon - Shinings are not guaranteed to reproduce Shining babies. I'm currently trying to get a Shiny Rayquaza in my Emerald by soft reseting if it's not shiny. :p
|
I thought about making eggs with a ditto, then having magcargo and 5 eggs and hatch them until I get a shiny, but theres two problems:
1) I want to get it in a GBA game, so I can clone. 2) I don't want 8191 charmanders! |

Yeah, I think the only methods of obtaining a shiny starter Pokémon are soft-reseting, breeding, and the alterative... cheating! :O
Both the soft-reseting and breeding methods take quite a bit of time (unless you're luky)... :( and I don't even know if you CAN get a shiny Pokémon through cheating. I can't say I've ever had a shiny starter Pokémon before, but I have been pretty lucky on my emerald version. About 30 minutes into gameplay I ran into a shiny Poochyena, and at the Sky Tower I ran into a shiny Rayquaza first time. :) Now I have a LV. 53 shiny Mightyena and LV. 78 shiny Rayquaza. |

I think it will take way to long to make eggs, hatch them, and make some more. There's gonna be a lot of lose charmanders when I release them all, thats for shure! PS. If I cheat on a shiny charmander, and clone it, but only use the cloned one, is that still cheating? |

I didn't think cloning would be a cheat? Then how do people get all those leftovers? Anyway, I don't have an AR, so I couldn't cheat if I wanted too.
|
some people get alot of leftovers by trading 2 snorlax's from FR/LG and if you have both than thats 4. Other people pick up Leftovers and some get them from the BF
