Wow, congrats, Fufu! I don't know how you got it so quickly, each try takes so long... And you'd best forget about EVs and use the berries later on, anyway--it's your starter! You need it to play through the game; at least early on.

I've seen a few dozen Drifloons. I have no good means of counting them yet. From my experience, just tossing a Quick Ball seems to always catch the Drifloon. I might multihunt again with Emerald on my SP.

Thanks, MM. I hunted for Chimchar pretty much any chance I got! Yeah, I realized about 30 minutes ago that EV training is nearly impossible for a mixed sweeper like what my future shiny Infernape will be. If it were to be a physical attacker, EV training would be somewhat easier to do...I do want to have SOME control over EVs though.

So, can you confirm that you need three badges to see Drifloon?

You probably know this already, but this is a very good trick for shiny pokemon in G/S/C:

Catch Red Gyarados at Lake of Rage.
Trade Red Gyarados to Red or Blue version.
Teach Gyarados Mimic.
Trade Red Gyarados back to G/S/C.
Use Move Deleter to get rid of everything except Mimic.
Trade to R/B.
Fight a wild Ditto.
Have Gyarados use Mimic after Ditto uses Transform.
Transform into Ditto.
After Ditto transforms into the transformed Gyarados (which is itself) catch Ditto.
Trade Ditto to G/S/C. Ditto will be shiny.

By using this trick, then breeding Ditto with Jolteon, I got a shiny Eevee. I then used the Cloning glitch, and I have a team of shiny Eevee evolutions.

Here's another weird trick: Start a new game on Red version with the name !?xWD?y (case sensitive). Do the Missigno. trick, but before going into the water, look at Ditto in the pokédex. You'll run into either glitchy missingno., ghost missingno., Aerodactyl skeleton missingno., or level 150 mewtwo! Against the ghost or skeleton missingno., use the ditto trick. You'll have shiny missigno., which, when traded to G/S/C, is shiny Lugia or Tyrannitar!!

These tricks seem outlandish, but I've confirmed they work myself. If you want, I can post how they work.

^ That's part of the reason why we don't count Metal-generation shinies here: there were many ways, both legit and illegit, to enhance your odds of finding shinies.

Are you asking to join? Because this is a club you're at.

Well done fufu. Seeing 2 shinies in the game only a few days after you got it is something else, even if you only caught one.

Anyway no new shinies but I have just hatched an Adamant Synchronising Ralts on Emerald to better my chances of finding a physical sweeping shiny. Actually I may now use Emerald to hunt my Sapphire target soon.

I've been gone literally all day...we left home at 7AM, and we just got back 5 minutes ago. I was able to play my game to-and-from games, and in between them, but I didn't get far. I'm going very slowly through the game. I'm training Disco to learn Nasty Plot (it's at level 19, but I'm only in Floaroma Town), and now I'm trying to catch female Bold or Modest Shellos to breed with.

Just so you know, Sychronize SRing does not work in Emerald, at least not for stuff you save in front of with overworld sprites. I'm not sure if it works for Pokemon that you receive as "gifts" (Beldum, Anorith, etc.), though.

Sychronize SRing does work for Pokemon with overworld sprites. In fact, I will be breeding a Modest or Timid Abra with Sychronize so that I can maximize my chances of seeing a Modest or Timid shiny Drifloon when I see it next week. I'm also doing the same for Dialga, Azelf, and maybe Cranidos (except the Abra will be Adamant in Dialga and Cranidos' case).

Well, since I can't hunt for Drifloon until next Friday, I think I'll look for the Skull Fossil, and soft reset for a shiny Cranidos for a bit. Well, at least once I get my Explorer Kit (currently at Valley Windworks). Good luck, everyone.

Edit: Does it take long to soft reset for Drifloon? Or is there some unnecessarily long amount of text I need to go through before I can soft reset?

I'm looking forward to soft resetting for Cranidos. It's a funny feeling I have.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!

I remember when he only had Pelipper. o__o I had 14 of my currently 16 shinies at the time. o__0 He's gaining fast!

You were removed from the dex due to the 30 post rule: you only qualify for the Shiny Dex once you've hit 30 posts in the club. It was instated when Aaryn returned for the first time. It's there to prevent the very thing you were expecting--the Dex to become unrealistically inflated from members (like yourself) who just show up, make some claims, and never participate actively in the club.

*edit* also, you're not the real metal mario!!! :(
Humour me. Come up with one piece of evidence supporting this.

I've stopped with Drifloon until next week. I'm currently trying to evolve a Skorupi for my team. I just checked the Dex at SPP only to find it evolves at L40! o__0 Maybe I'll just do the sixth gym first. =/

Hey gang - My DS just died so now I have nothing to do but study for an exam. Ergo, I decided to post on a message board instead.
I just got my 6th badge and am heading to lake Valor (I think that's what it's called).
Anyway, I'm disappointed that I haven't seen any shinies yet - but I'm not surprised.
I could totally go for a shiny in the Shinx evo-line. But for some reason, all of a sudden I really want a shiny Girafarig - no idea why. Anyway, I'm not hunting yet - but I'm definitely keeping an eye out.
Happy hunting (or more likely happy D/Ping).

Well, I finally got Disco to level 23 for Nasty Plot, and I evolved it into a Monferno. Here are some pics for you viewing pleasure.


This wasn't too hard to take actually. I just had to hold my camera phone will I walked around in the grass.



Yeah, normal pic. I caught a female Bold Shellos earlier today, and I'm only facing Bidoof, Geodude, and Abra. I'm not looking for a specific EV spread, but meh. I don't know why I'm bothering though, I'm just going to breed it with a Wooper to get a Bold Shellos with Yawn anyways.

Edit: I can't believe I forgot to mention this, but I will be soft resetting for Cyndaquil on my Emerald games. You see, I have three out of the four fire starters shiny, and I want to complete SOME sort of set before shido or Missingno. Master does, so yeah. I probably won't be SRing for them too much though, seeing as how I'll be busy hunting on Diamond. I guess I can always soft reset WHILE I play Diamond...

Died as in batteries or broken? I hope it's just the former. Is it the snowy area you're at? Because it's wicked! I just got there. I don't want to spoil by going into details, so I'll just leave it at that. I could sure go for a shiny Sneasel or Snover. ;)

Hmm, I never really thought of collecting a shiny "set" of anything... I could go for Grass starters, but then I'd have three tedious breeding jobs on my case. I could attempt to collect a set of Top Tier Non Legends, of which I already have Dragonite, but Garchomp wins the record for Worst Shiny Ever, because it isn't any different.

Edit: *sees new post* Congrats Shido on the Murkrow! And it's lucky it has a fourth-gen evolution. ;)

Congrats, shido! Murkrow is a shiny I plan on breeding for eventually. Oh, yes, I updated my Profile so it includes my Friend Code, so if you guys want to add me, please PM me.

Okay, I've gotten the Explorer Kit, but finding fossils is taking way longer than I though. If you've gotten a fossil before, where did you find yours?

I'm EV training Monferno in SAtk at the Old Chateau...maybe I'll find a shiny Gastly? I don't really want to, meh.
I LOVE SHINY POKEMON!
