Shiney Appearance rate
Does anyone know the exacte info on the Shiney appearance rate? It has to be exactly right please, i want to try and edit it and it htought it would be better to ask here
|
It was about (1)7685 or something.I'm not sure.
|
I think it's 1 out of 8625.
|
I think it's 1 outta 8624
|
no its like 65378......................................
|
That high? Guess I've been pretty lucky. I've caught a shiny numel, pelipper, and a swablu(modest personality) in the past few days. I've been ev training my pokemon in same areas. I've been wanting a shiny absol but I haven't been lucky on that one yet. :(
|
I wish I could find at least one shiny Pokemon
|
You should know that starters and legendaries have a far higher chance of being shiney. I believe it's around 1 in 356.
|
In RuSa its random. Therefore no formula has been calculated thus far.
For starters legnedarys, according to my latest sorces its 1/256. But yours may be more accurate. |
i'm gonna start my firered over until i get a female shiny charmander
|
the reason why shiny is easier to get for those legendaries/starters it's because the fact that it's harder to get a female AND a good personality makes up for all the decrease in difficulty for shiny...
|
how did you get a firered they havent been released yet?Also I think in g/s/c it's 1 to 6795 it said so in the guide book I baught so I'm 99% sure.

He went to some other country and he saw a '100% English' version on it a while ago and he bought it. I remember him talking about it in the FRLG forums.

I'm pretty sure in rusa it's random so you could take hours and never get a shiny legendary.
|
It has to be based on some sort of chance. Like if you wanted to catch a Surskit (without the TV outbreak event), it would be extremely rare to run into one and you would need to know the chances of finding one.
|
On average, to get a shiny of a "once only" Pokemon such as starters, Kyogre/Groudon or Metagross, it takes 83 hours of non stop trying on average. So perhaps that's a better way to look at it compare to percentages. ^_^;

As far as I've figured out from hacking around in the SRAM/RAM....for a Pokemon to be shiny in R/S/LG/FR, the game draws 2 random numbers (words [or 1 dword...not sure], each can be 0 to 65,535 err...the low byte of the first word is used for the gender I think) and then if the first word equals your secret Trainer ID and the second word equals your Trainer ID then, the Pokemon is shiny. So if I'm right...the chances of a shiny Pokemon are 1 in 4,294,967,296 O.O and a player that catches for example, a shiny male Rattata, can never catch a shiny female Rattata. Unless there's something I didn't figure out >.< that kind of number seems a little too large though...
Anyone out there know more about the byte structure of a Pokemon, I know most the stuff related (like changing the gene, effort points, contest stats,experience,item held,markings, Pokemon ID, Pokemon Name etc...), but currently there's a few words in it that I don't quite know the most about (like the gender part and it's relation to shiny Pokemon and changing the grouping of the encrypted dwords)? Any info is greatly appreciated ^-^ |
I’m pretty sure it was lowered to 1/8172, give or take twenty or so. It was 1/32767 I believe in GSC.
|
That sounds about right.(message in parren. is so I can post a big enough message)
|
The rareness of a shiny is really low ( you'd have to be lucky) but getting a female starter is hard too so if u get one of them then you should be proud in my opinion.
|
Can we just all agree that getting shinys are hard and getting shiny starters are even harder?...etc?
|
I suppose I mean the chances of a starter seems just like the encountar of one so I guess I agree with you. ^_^

Note: if you keep restarting your game the chances are re rolled (restarting not saving and trning of GBA) Note: Its just like rolling a dice you can keep rolling it but never land on a six, |
My cousin, and I am serious, has a shiney torchic he didnt use cheats or not. 'Casue I was right there with hi mwhen he started to help him out. And when he chsoe his pokemon it sparkled and he was like "what does that mean?" and I looekd at him and was like "Dude...you got a shiney starter." and I told hi mhow rare that was.. so yea. I am jealous.
|
no, you guys are all wrong..stop guessing.
i really forgot, but i tried atleast. 65** somewhere around that. its the number in your game, when two numbers match you get a shiny. |
it happens when your secret ID and the pokemon's secret ID match.
|
Wow u people r genius (compliment) I never thought it waz that way! So it is sorta like the highest id is 99999 (maybe to many #) so the chance is 1 outa 9999? *confused*
|
That sounds about right as supposed to what Jirachi3 said
|
Wow I guess people r born lucky $ (I feel smart for once) J/k but then again I heard 2 #'s r drawn or something lik that and if the pokemon's matches your number u drew then it's shiny. But which one is correct???
