Well, I've posted this at Serebii, but last night at around 11:30 PM, I ran into a shiny Zigzagoon while hunting for a shiny Torchic. Yeah, I was pissed when I found it, but I'm trying to look on the positive side. I found it pretty quickly on this ID No., so maybe it's lucky!

Everyone break a leg shiny hunting.

What is SH, Kratos_rage?

Uh... were you hatching or something? Because I don't see how you could "run into" a shiny Zigzagoon while hunting for a shiny Torchic... and quite frankly, I myself wouldn't be angry. As I said with my Voltorb, even if a Magnemite had appeared, it wouldn't have been shiny because the codes are different. (Unless, of course, you meant Poochyena or whatever. Or I'm forgetting something)
So take what you can when you can. This also backs up the "people who sometimes get 2 shinies in a row", and why I'm hunting on Emerald for Magnemite although I've already gotten 2 shinies from it: It simply doesn't matter. Maybe some IDs are better than others, sure, but that's now my least concern.

My SR Pokemon require more than a few taps of the A button... With Scyther I have to use the control pad, and if I do Charmander at the same time (which I have been), it's hard because I have to stop doing one handheld in order to SR another. So I try to time it exactly so I can stop during a pause where I can't do anything (such as "Bandit recieved the CHARMANDER from PROF. OAK!"). And I encounter too many Pokemon at once in Emerald to try and do it and a SR Pokemon at the same time. I could somehow go 5 for 5, seeing as I have 5 GBA game players (GBA, GBA SP, DS, DSLite, GBA Player), but it's too confusing and it will hurt my hands.


I'm not feeling so great. I'm sick to my stomach, and it's not because my grade tests are this week.
No shinies for me, either. But I'ma think I'm getting close. :) But I'm running out of time. Not for the contest, but for the month. I want to try and get 2 shinies this month, but I'm not sure if I will or not. I've tried all my targets today and decent amount. Even if I didn't get one, I inch closer and closer to it though.

Sorry for double posting, but me and Shido are neck-and-neck now, and it's going to come down to the wire.

Just take a look for yourself

One of my latter targets has been obtained, and I am now tied for the lead in this little contest, and I just might win it, because the future looks a tad bit brighter now.

Um, I was soft resetting on Emerald. You can encounter a shiny Zigzagoon at the beginning of the game like that.

I'm not the one that used SH, I coined "SRing". Congrats on your shiny Scyther, now I want one! I'm going to stick to Moltres for a little bit though.

And here I thought I could come in second. This kind of stuff always happens to me.

Congrats on the Scyther, DDD. As for me, I'm still hunting the same targets. I also just found out about Clefairy's "Magic Guard" ability in Gen. 4, so if I don't find one before I get Pearl, I'm definitely hunting it there.

(BTW for anyone who doesn't know, "Magic Guard" protects you from all attacks that don't do damage such as Toxic, Sand Attack, and ThunderWave. I reckon this will pull Clefable up from UU into OU :).)

No, it will not move up from UU to OU, it is WAY too easily outclassed and utterly destroyed there. It'll be BL at best.

Edit: OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS, I JUST RAN INTO ANOTHER SHINY ZIGZAGOON!!!!!!

Gawd! What in the world did I do to deserve this! This is the second shiny Zigzagoon in like 2 days with this ID! Seriously, what the ****...I was soft resetting for Torchic.

Sorry for not providing pictures, but you all have just got to believe me...

Edit: Another shiny Zigzagoon. Yes, this confirms it, my Emerald is frickin' lucky.
Excuse my language.

That's 3 in just a matter of days. (And I understand now; yeah, I forgot it was switched in Emerald. I've only played through Emerald once)

If you could've been able to catch them.... Yeah you'd be on fire, but seriously, even if you aren't, that's definately one feat and a half! :) While sucking all the way. >_<


Targets:

FR1: Undecided
LG: Charmander
FR2: Charmander
Sapphire: On Hold

Ruby: Here's where my trouble starts. I want to look sorta for a Shiny Duskull, but I don't want to trade and reset afterwards to set myself up for shiny starters again... so I'm not sure. I'm just going to focus on my remaining 2 targets for now.

Emerald: Magnemite/Magneton, whichever comes first.

I ran into another one at about 30 minutes after I posted that message, so it's actually four. It still stinks.

9:30 PM (EST, approximately 18 minutes after I posted this): Another shiny Zigzagoon run into. That makes five.

****.

Yeah we noticed but yeah has shiny hunter said we can't do anything about you until the co-owners come. Anyways i still haven't played my pokemon games so that means i haven't played them in about two weeks and a couple of days, but when i do start playing them again I hope I get a shiny.

I do apologise FuFu, but i'm loling all the way to the bank on this one, that is without a doubt the worst luck i've ever seen anyone have, you know what they say though? the only bad luck is no luck, i just hope i never have luck like that.

I'm sure you'll get torchic soon, just hang in there.

Someone should come along soon and admit you fredlocks, it took about two days for me to be admitted.

Well anywho, im back and still hunting for that special shiny Smeargle, Congratulations to everybody that got a shiny pokemon in the past 100ish pages but unfortunatley I don't have time to read them :(

Yours faithfully,

A bit of patience wouldn't go a miss ;) I seem to be the only active Co-Owner at the moment and I can't check the thread every second of the day XD

But yes, you seem fine, you may join.

I am somewhat uncertain of the quantity of your shinys, to have gotten them all legitimately would have taken months upon months of constant searching. Bearing in mind we do not count shiny's from G/S/C and definitely frown upon hacked shinys are you still adamant that you have that many? Aaryn has over 30 and i even doubt him.

If so what you have and how you got them would be a nice start. I'll make my decision based on your answer.

As for me, I've been hunting quite a lot recently which is weird, Sabeleye is level 55 at the moment and if i haven't found a shiny by the time he reaches 100, I'll move on from Mt.Prye.

Okay, well, earlier this morning, I found shiny Torchic! VenomX already knows this, but last night, 8 minutes after I posted my previous post, I ran into another shiny Zigzagoon. So that made six in one day, and seven altogether before I finally got Torchic. My shiny Torchic has a Gentle nature.

HP: 20
ATK: 12
DEF: 8
SATK: 12
SDEF: 10 or 11
SPEED: 10 or 11

This is all from memory. I remember all but the last two perfectly though. I'm really sorry that I can't get pictures, I don't know where the family digital camera is, and I don't have a cell phone.
