Well, I've been soft resetting for Chimchar since I got back. Reading the Guide Book, too. The Guide Book is pretty lame, but I do like how everything looks. Good luck to everyone shiny hunting.

So, shido, you can get non-Sinnoh Dex Pokemon (i.e., National Dex Pokemon) through GTS before actually getting the National Dex? Awesome! Now I can have a Tangrowth on my team.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!

Shido: How are you getting all this post-ND stuff? Do you have the friend code of some Japanese player who's had the game for a while or something? Oh, and I'd love a Ditto if you have an extra. I can trade you starters. ;) BTW, no thanks on that Burmy. I shouldn't have that much trouble catching one once I make it back to the western part of Sinnoh. I caught a female Combee pretty easily.

In other news...

I caught a shiny Geodude!! ^o^





(other pictures can be found in my Shiny Album)

I was paranoid it'd Selfdestruct, so I just threw a Repeat Ball and had it. I'm NOT going to go through another shiny Lairon incident. What a turn-off that'd be to me for the fourth-generation. Thankfully, it stayed in.

I recorded a video of its capture, but the sound crapped out and didn't record for some reason. I'm still going to post the video on Youtube later this evening, probably with some music thrown over top, if I can find something appropriate.

Lol! I just noticed the "personality flavour" for my shiny Geodude--"somewhat vain." "Hey everyone, look at me! I'm GOLD!! Neeners!" xP

The more I hear people declaring that they're going to reset for shiny Drifloon, the less I want to. He's really becoming too overrated. Not unlike Porygon. When I got one, nobody else had one. Now everyone does. I remember that bubble burst when Missingno Master went after one. =/

I'll EV shiny Geodude once I get the Macho Brace and, preferably, Fly. Do Pal Parked Pokémon keep their Pokérus? I may hold off on the EV training if I can import Pokérus from there.

Hey, everyone. Sychronize SRing has been confirmed to work. I'm sure you all have probably already thought about it, but Sychronize SRing is taking advantage of the Synchronize trait in Emearld and utilizing it to maximize the odds of you finding a shiny with a specific nature. This worked with wild Pokemon (and I believe Pokemon given to you) in Emerald, but not for SRing. It now works for SRing on Diamond. Can anyone say Timid shiny Azelf? Adamant shiny Dialga?

Congrats on the shiny Geodude, MM. Funny how the people who AREN'T hunting are getting shinies. Heh, maybe I should trick my game into thinking I'm hunting for a female Chimchar with a good nature. ;)

*says he is hunting for female Chimchar with a good nature aloud*

I was eating dinner, and I couldn't really soft reset, so I decided to "play through" a bit. To be honest, I'm not missing out on that much. I know the game is gonna be great when I get on, but beating those Lvl 2 Starly and Bidoof just wouldn't be as fun as it would be if I had a shiny Chimchar.

Oh, yeah, MM, I decided on hunting for a shiny Drifloon as soon as the shiny sprites for D/P were released. In fact, I've decided on most, if not, ALL of my future targets.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!

Well guys I was thinking about how much a shiny was actually worth to me and I found it out it wasn't too much. If I had to choose between like 5 dollars or twenty shiny pokemon I would take the five bucks. Anyways what are your opinions about how much there worth to you? and congrats on the geodude metal mario.

Five bucks? I'd definitely take the shiny! I can easily get twenty bucks in two weeks, if I just did my chores.

Anything over $50, I'd probably just take the money.

To stay on-topic, I'm shiny hunting for Chimchar. I may hunt for Latias over the weekend, but it doesn't seem likely because I have another basketball tournament.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!

Whaddya mean, yours? You never had a shiny Geodude, did you? I wouldn't really call it all that an exciting target, either. If you really want one, they're all over Sinnoh, so you shouldn't have any problems finding one.

Oh, yeah, MM, I decided on hunting for a shiny Drifloon as soon as the shiny sprites for D/P were released. In fact, I've decided on most, if not, ALL of my future targets.
So did I. Right back when Bulbagarden extracted all the sprites, I went through and found all the shinies I really liked.

When you save in front of Drifloon and the day rolls over, does it stay until you leave the route? It'd be quite annoying to only have a few hours each week to reset for it, and I'm not keen on "time travelling." I wouldn't call it cheating, ban it from the club, or anything, but it's still not quite right.

Uh, great minds think alike?

Yes, it will stay there. As long as you don't leave the route, Drifloon will be there forever.

Congrats MM, I look forward to the video, but for the love of all that is good, no My Chemical Romance XD

Our phone line is down for some odd reason so i can only get online for a couple of minutes without it messing up which is rather annoying, so I'm playing Emerald/Twilight Princess quite a bit. I really want a new shiny, its been ages since Raticate D:

Today I'll hunt in Victory Road in my Emerald to compensate for that Hariyama I accidentally ran from. And I have transferred my Master Ball from my Sapphire file over. So this time, no shinies will escape. MWAHAHAHA!

Oh and congrats on Geo, MM. And a naughty nature too? Lucky thing...

Hey, don't diss the Geodude. I think MM could use this thing on his Wifi battle team with a bit of careful timing. Can anyone say "Rock-Polishing Golem?" wink, wink.

Anyway when I get Pearl my first shiny target will probably be Shieldon, but there may be others depending on how things go.

No offense meant, but that wouldn't work too well. You'd have to invest way too many EVs to speed in order to outrun anything that's fast, and the fact that MM's shiny Geodude probably doesn't have flawless Speed in the first place makes it worse. Even if you got the Speed boost, you wouldn't be OHKOing things that counter you (like Quagsire, at least in UU) because 110 Base Attack isn't really enough to sweep with right off the bat. You need to boost it somehow. If I wanted my Golem to "sweep" I'd just use a CBer. I'm not saying it's a bad strategy though.

but even with MMs geodude the invisable race to get a 4th gen shiny is still on so gl to you all (for since im not actively hunting prolly wont be me who gets it >.>)
Knowing how lucky you are, you're probably going to get a wild shiny without even trying! Either that, or no one will get another shiny until you start hunting, and shortly after you start hunting, you'll get the shiny you want.

Please direct your attention at my sig. :( :( :(


http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n67/Fufu3000/StarlyShiny.jpg

NOOOO. I knew it was shiny as it scrolled across the screen. GAHAHAKHGDKLHDFS:LKGHDSG:SLDKHGS why me? All I wanted was a shiny Chimchar! :( This is my "first" D/P shiny, too, I'm now mentally scarred.

I would've posted this long ago, but I couldn't get on; there was some sort of Database Error. This place is starting to go down as much as Serebii.

*sighs*
I'm going to use this is as a form of motivation. Wish me luck with Chimchar.

Oh, and I WOULD take pics of shiny Scyther, Dratini, Torchic, and Registeel, but it takes really long to take the pics, download, upload, etc., so I won't do it right now. And I want to soft reset more. Furthermore, I took this pic on my camera phone (I got my phone about a week ago) while the pics that I've already taken of the aformentioned shinies (excluding Starly) are on the digital camera.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!
