tyranisneasel: (This is hypothetical.) Since computers are deterministic machines, it's impossible for them to generate truly random numbers. I'm hoping that the game generates certain PVs (Personality Value, a hidden value responsible for things including natures, genders, and shininess) more often than others. Since shininess is determined by a hidden value similar to your trainer ID, if this is the case, games with certain such IDs will tend to generate shinies more often than others. By resetting my game totally on occasion, I don't raise the odds of seeing a shiny Treecko, but I raise the odds that, once I do, I will see shinies more frequently later on. (This is hypothetical.)

King Kobra: "Miss Cake" is the name of my Scizor. (female) I got the idea from Runa's Scyther who battled the L140 Kabuto. :P As for the D/P sprites, if you were to check my sig on SPPF, you would find that I had reparied the sprites from the official D/P screenshots. After that, recolouring them is trivial. :P (The album of repaired sprites (which can be expected to grow as more screenshots are released) can be found here.)

Exokriz: I'm sorry to hear that about the Weedle and Onix. On the bright side, if the theory I described above is true, you're bound to run into some more shinies! ^o^ Raise a False Swiper ASAP.

~2986 Treeckos. You'd know if I found a shiny, even if it's a Zigzagoon. >,>

MM, when u post and you put ~*insert number of SRs here* for Treecko, those are the soft resets u got by adding 21.3333 everytime u saw a female one with 20 HP right? Would the same thing work for a Totodile? I plan to SR for one, once I get this shiny Treecko on Emerald(I am SRing for both Treecko and Eevee). I have been SRing for Eevee what feels like all day, so now I am off to Treecko, wish me luck!

It is possible to trade between R/S/E/FR/LG to D/P... I am not sure about XD/Colos though.

There are better ways to count Totodiles, since there's no waste of time in checking its stat screen, since you need to check it, anyway. Try counting females with a specific nature--the odds are 1 in 200 (so 200 per). You should get used to coming up with these things by yourself.

I am not sure i understand, but I think I get the idea... say, I am looking for a shiny Totodile, and everytime I see a female with a Jolly nature, I add 200 soft resets to the total I've done, correct?

Meh, I am temporarily giving up for Eevee. So I can resume my hunt for Treecko. I figured Treecko is higher on my priority list becuz the ID I have on FR is already gonna be the one I am keeping, and that ID got me a shiny charmander in 5 days, so maybe it is lucky. So, it would be logical to hunt for a Treecko, so I can hopefully get a lucky ID on there too... I am gonna get a new ID on Em every week. Today is the 22nd, right?

I guess I'll just start over in how many I counted, since I lost the sheet i was keeping track of them on, but I am gonna use MM's method of counting again.

BTW, do u guys think I should just focus on Treecko till I get it, or should I alternate between Eevee and Treecko?

i really wish u would find a connection to idss mm but i just find it too hard to belive u can no off the variables are jus too much for my mind to grasp u pulling out specific ids that can get shinnies more then others , i mean one question when u take all this into question is did u figure in how often one plays? i mean obviously makes lil diffrence but if sr 3k times in one day and get a shiny doesnt mean my id has better luck becuz u only reset 100 or so a day and didnt get one for weeks or months again i claim to know nothing im jus a rambling paranoid person so plz try not to make me sound too dumb when u explain it all to me XD
