Does anyone know shinyrates for dexnaving without shiny charm?
Originally I thought dexnaving was 1/512 regardless of chain and search level. But I've heard that shinyrate increases once you have a search level of 999.
I like to use the search level as a counter so when a hunt goes over 999 I save it at 989, then reset game when I do 10 encounters. It saves repels as well.
But I'm starting to think my odds are currently 1/4096 lol. Partly because the search level is under 999 and also because of the resetting the game.

Search Level does affect Shiny rates, 999 giving you the best odds. At 999 and without the Shiny Charm or keeping a chain, your Shiny odds would be 1/626, with a 4% chance of each encounter being 1/126 instead. This guy goes over the math: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XH36JMQdKzc
Consider using your Repels as counters? Or just try to keep track in your head. I personally tend to keep count by playing Saria's Song (Zelda OOT) in my head. (One-one-one One-one-one One-one-one, Two-two-two Two-two-two Three-three-three, and so on.)

Caught a shiny female Pangoro in Shield after joining a random raid.
In Gigantamax form it's hard to tell if it's shiny but I do like the brown fur and red hands the shiny form has. It was caught in a repeat ball.

SHINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUBONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Shiny Cubone!!! What a cool shiny for a Ghost hunter, hahahaha! :laugh-squinted:
I've been hunting the daily Swarm Pokémon in Pearl, and last Saturday's was Cubone on Route 203! At around 9:47 PM on May 8th, 2021, I looked down at my DS and saw the swirling stars!! I'm glad I caught them, since I probably wouldn't have noticed otherwise! Cubone's purplish shade is a pretty subtle change from regular Cubone, so the stars really saved me, haha! It looked absolutely dope in the dark of night! (btw the time-of-day differences in GenIV are absolutely dope...it's like a totally different region at the different times of day! And they're all amazingly cool!!!)
Cubone shone on encounter #8675 of my Swarm hunt, and I caught him on the first Dusk Ball attempt! I named him Fysdimor, a stylized spelling of the phonetically identical Fils de Mort, which is French for "Son of Death." :pink_laugh:

I'm not 100% certain but it seems that Simple Beam is always in the first slot and thus Teleport, the egg move, also takes the first slot overriding the learned attack. Phew so it can't have both attacks at the same time from my understanding. Unlike Ralts which can have Momento and Teleport 🤣
With that one I actually bred Kirlia with Muk so I could have one with Momento and Imprison. Switched Muk with Misdreavus to get a Misdreavus with Perish Song and Imprison before hunting Lapras in friend safari.

First post here. Just wrapped up my shiny Love Ball Jangmo-o breeding. 1800 eggs for 3 of them so I that I could have all stages shiny ^.^ Sheesh Dragon eggs take so long to hatch T^T
My 3rd one to hatch:
Also, yesterday, I accidentally bumped into a random stufful while hatching eggs and got this:
A Pokemon Camp image with all 3 Jangmo-o stages:
2 Pokemon Camp images with the Shiny stufful, as well as feebas & Milotic (my previous shiny breed before jangmo-o was a love ball & level ball Feebas):
I haven't yet compiled a list of shinies I own. I'll include that in my next post if that's not a problem.
Edit: put a link in my signature to what shinies I have. The bred page images seem to bug out and require you to click a diff page after clicking on it, and then going back to it to properly align.

Hello! Wanted to ask a question of experienced shiny hunters - where there is a choice, for Legendary Pokemon would you recommend soft resetting Ultra Wormholes in USUM, or repeating Dynamax Adventures? I'm wondering if the 1/100 chance is really less time consuming when you have to go through the entire thing beforehand, as opposed to just resetting over and over with significantly higher odds. Would be interested to hear some thoughts :3

I think you should choose the method you think, you can keep doing the longest and is most enjoyable for you. ^^
Also another round of shinies :D

Caught these in Wild Overworld Encounters:
Shiny bred and evolved these:
Also, I've put a shiny sheet in my signature. Original Post of this thread said to list all shinies I have.
The bred page is bugged for some reason (probably too many images). The pics will be displaced. To Fix: Click on a diff tab, then go back to the Bred page.
Also my next shiny breed will probably be a Dream Ball Espeon. Gonna go play New Pokemon Snap first now though =)

I got shiny Elgyem today in about 750 dexnavs.
It had Teleport so switched to Dugtrio with Arena Trap and fortunately caught it full health awake in an ultra ball. It was level 49.
I now am thiefing some Charcoal off Vulpix to get my money back up.

OMG shiny Anorith!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did it!! Anorith shone on SR #16356, at 7:19 AM on June 3rd!! I woke up like 40 minutes before my alarm was set to go off on Thursday morning, and after a few minutes of trying to fall back asleep, I figured that I wouldn't have much more time to sleep once I managed to fall back asleep anyway, so I might as well get some shiny hunting in, "lol!"!! I fired up Pearl and checked the daily Swarm, and as always on days that the Swarm ends up being some lame Pokémon, I headed over to SR for my favorite fossil!
And Anorith shone!! I'd never seen what shiny Anorith looked like before, and it looks pretty cool! It's like a shinier and slicker-looking Anorith, hahaha! It really does shine and look super rare! :laugh-squinted:
I named him Trylo, since he kind of reminds me of a trilobite. Gosh, I haven't seen one of those guys for a long time... :pink_confused:
And a huge thanks to VIsionofMilotic for naming us Club of the Month!!! :boogie: :pink_boogie: :boogie: :pink_boogie:

SHINY SEVIPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG I got one the coolest shinies ever!!!! The truly polychromatic iridescent beauty, Seviper!!!
I was hunting the daily Swarm in Pearl, and last Saturday, June 19th, the Swarm was Dunsparce on Route 208. Route 208 has Seviper show up too if you put Sapphire into the DS's GBA slot, so of course I did that for a chance at another super-cool shiny, and it worked!! Axiom 22 ftw!!!! :laugh-squinted: :pink_boogie: :laugh-squinted:
I knew it was shiny before it was even all the way across the screen, haha, hahaha! Shiny Seviper looks amazing!!!!!!! :laugh:
When Seviper appeared, I swapped out my Illuminate Volbeat for my Kricketune with Sing, and it let off a melody to echo through the night. The Sing worked, and shiny Seviper fell asleep! But I forgot one thing...
...Seviper has Shed Skin, which brushes off the status change! The wild Seviper woke up!
"lol!" I totally was caught off guard by that, but I tossed Luxury Balls at the beauteous serpent, and the second Luxury Ball caught it! Woo-hoo! :pink_boogie:
I found Seviper at 6:30 PM on June 19th, 2021, and he shone on encounter #7016 of my Pearl Swarm hunt. I named him Severus - the name that sounds most like Seviper - which also makes him...
*lowers sunglasses*
...Severus Snake! :laugh:
Congrats on the fourth shiny Vulpix - that's a really cool shiny! And hunting Charcoal is a really cool and unique way of raising money, haha! I've never heard of anyone doing that before, but it's a terrific idea!
