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

Shiny bred and evolved these:

Buneary, hatched 23 May (150 eggs bred total):

Eevee, hatched 24 May (3oo eggs bred total):


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 =)

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:

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:
Spoiler:


Also, yesterday, I accidentally bumped into a random stufful while hatching eggs and got this:
Spoiler:


A Pokemon Camp image with all 3 Jangmo-o stages:
Spoiler:


the previous 2 shiny bred jangmo-o hatched on the 17th and 12th of this month.


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):
Spoiler:




The Feebas and milotic were hatched on the 11th and 9th of this month.


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.

Welcome to the SHC, ReKoil!! I absolutely love the Pokémon Camp photos, haha - it's so cool to see your shinies just walking around and hanging out! :laugh:

I don't think I've ever seen a spreadsheet of shinies before; that's a really good idea! Congrats on all those shinies, but especially on the Heatmor! That's def the most underrated shiny of all time. I have him in my top 10, but I don't ever see him in the discussion for greatest shiny of all time, when he totally should be there, hahaha! Getting a shiny Heatmor is like finding a hidden treasure, haha!

I think you should choose the method you think, you can keep doing the longest and is most enjoyable for you. ^^

Congrats on those shinies, DarkTorchic! Sandygast is probably my favorite GenVII shiny of all!

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.
Way to go, Maserati! Congrats on getting that Elgyem and nice shiny save with the Arena Trap! :pink_laugh:


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:

Spoiler:


I’ve been dexnaving both Elgyem and Vulpix for Charcoal and today my 4th shiny Vulpix appeared.
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! :smile:

And the game decided to randomly give me a second shiny Dream ball eevee while I cleaned out my boxes, which I have left un-evolved for the time being:


Shiny bred for a Fast Ball Eevee after this, to get a shiny Fast Ball Jolteon:

I am planning a shiny hunting spree in October to celebrate my favorite month and holiday. I think I am going to hunt for 4-5 total mons. I am going to hunt for: Pumkaboo, Trevenant, Absol, and Golurk. I figured Dark and Ghost types would be a fun theme for October and since I have a shiny charm and use the Masuda Method, 4-5 is pretty doable.

11865 Pearl Swarm encounters
8192 Route 203/Route 204 encounters
1876 Shieldon

I've continued to hunt for the daily Swarm in Pearl when it's something cool (and most days, it is - the Swarmers are awesome!!!), and on days that it's not, I go for Lotad or Shieldon! I was initially hunting Lotad with Sapphire inserted on Route 203, but I've since moved over to Route 204, since it basically swaps out Abra for Budew as an Axiom 22 possibility, and I'd much rather get a shiny Budew along the way than another shiny Abra, haha!

And I have five Shieldon fossils instead of just one, so those SRs go much, much faster than the Anorith ones did! :pink_boogie:

Spoiler:
My second shiny Elgyem showed up today in 465 Dexnav encounters.
Got shiny Tympole in 308 dexnavs.
Hatched a shiny Kangaskhan yesterday in 960 eggs. Been hatching on and off since Jul 2020.
Today I found shiny Shellos in 250 dexnav encounters.
Major congrats on those shinies!!! I haven't heard of too many people getting shiny Kangaskhan - that one sounds especially rare! :boogie:

Congrats on those shinies! That's some crazy luck with Solosis, haha! :pink_laugh:

Good luck on your Marill hunt! Marill's one of the only shinies where it has a really different shiny scheme than its evolution, but both are amazingly cool! Like, I don't know if I'd be able to pick between having an astoundingly cool shiny Marilll, or an astoundingly cool shiny Azumarill!! :deepthink:

I figured Dark and Ghost types would be a fun theme for October and since I have a shiny charm and use the Masuda Method, 4-5 is pretty doable.
Woot, that sounds awesome!! Dark- and Ghost-types are the coolest, but I've never seen anyone put Absol in there for a Halloween hunt! That's a splendidly magnificent idea, haha!!! Absol's one of the coolest Pokémon of all time (and Mega Absol is probs even top 10!), but I've never thought of it as being a cool Halloween Pokémon. But you're right!! It totally should be, and it totally fits that vibe, hahaha! Best of luck on your October spree!!

Sweet, congrats on the those cool-Balled shinies!!! I'm on #TeamUmbreon myself, but Espeon is, like, the absolutely perfect Dream Ball Pokémon!! You got a sweet shiny in the rarest Ball!!! And Fast Ball fits Jolteon sooooooooo well too, haha! :laugh:

Hey, I'm desperately looking for some answers. I've been on a shiny hunt for chewtle, for 70 hours i stopped counting my encounters after 10k encounters. I also haven't gotten a gym badge yet. Is there something I need to do to before shinys will even spawn or am I just the unluckily player in all of sword and sheild

Nope, there's nothing you need to do to unlock the ability to find Pokemon except get past choosing your starter. Sorry that it's taken such a long time for you hope you get it soon. :)

Oof. Finally wrapped up my Spheal shiny breed. 2550 eggs for all 3 of them.
The egg count combined with a busy work schedule, made this shiny breed take roughly a month xD

Images:
Spoiler:






Couple Pokemon Camp images:




While I was breeding I bumped into a random Cubchoo that turned out to be shiny (before I even hatched a single shiny Spheal xD):
Spoiler:


Also took this shiny badboy home from a Dynamax Adventure:
Spoiler:


Next on my list is shiny breeding Alolan Sandshrew and Alolan Sandslash.

Daaang I don't have the patience to complete full shiny lines. The fact that I can sit down and complete any hunt is honestly suprising for me. Congrats on all of those!

Today I booted up the game for the first time in roughly 4 months and did two dynamax adventures, both of which resulted in shinies. Normally I wouldn't count these or really care do the the significantly higher rates but given the circumstances (and the fact that Zygarde is near impossible to beat..), I think I will. :D

Dang... shiny Zygarde.... I considered hunting it, but it took me like 10-12 tries with randos to even beat it once (NPC's are useless in that fight) xD
That is a great one to get 👍

Good luck on the Marill! I plan to go and hunt all the baby Pokemon through MM starting with Azurill, the most useless but also the best baby Pokemon.

This week I've found a few more shinies. I found a Shiny Galarian Slowpoke after about 38 encounters kinda - I previously hunted this when IoA came out and got one after 511. Went back a few days ago to get another for Slowking.

Spoiler:


Also got a two shinies from one Dynamax Adventure, which I'm happy with given the options. RIP to the Nidoqueen (who I despise) to get one of my favorites - Bisharp! I also have no idea why embedding it destroyed the GIF quality..

Spoiler:


I also was extremely bored today and made an entire google sheet to chronicle all my shiny Pokemon. Currently hunting Purrloin in Shield - at roughly 2000 encounters at the current time.

Edit: Got Purrloin :P
