    The other day I was looking for Mimikyu. Found a shiny Golbat before I found a Mimikyu. Still, random encounter is nice.

    Also I swear if I get a shiny Fearow I will be annoyed.

  • I've just caught a shiny Araquanid right in the middle of having a doubt on choosing Pkm for my team. Since her base Speed is 42 and having the Sassy nature, I'm gonna have Trick Room team, I guess.

    I caught a shiny Goldeen while searching for Feebas.
    You know something is messed up when a regular fish is rarer than a shiny. @___@
    Did you focusing on the bubbling spots? The chance of encountering Feebas are much higher there. I caught one with this way.

  • I feel encountering shinies is way to easy in this gen...

    I hunted and already found 3 (Being rockruff, formantis, and a freakin male soladin DAMNIT!) in under 24 hours (No shiny charm)... I also feel that SOS chaining is way to easy to execute unlike chain fishing or pokeradar chaining which needed your full attention.

    Also found a random shiny goldeen while fishing for a Wishywashy

  • Pretty sure I ran into a shiny Mimikyu during the ghost trial, because it looked more grey than usual.. except I didn't see the sparkles and I couldn't catch it anyways.. RIP Mimikyu.

    Got a random Shiny Golduck at Poni Gauntlet. Pretty surprising, and scared as I didn't have my catching team on hand. Luckily only 1 Ultra Ball was needed.

    If it was indeed a Shiny it's Shiny form will be viewable in your Pokedex. Uncatchable Shinys are annoying however.

    I'm going to try for a Shiny Rockruff (I want a Shiny Midday Lycanroc) later today.

    I was just looking for the fire Oricorio, when, suddenly, a shiny Petilil appeared!
    How classic! The randomly encountered shiny.

    I threw a Pokeball at it, and what do you know? It was the single-shake capture. That was some great luck!

  • Second day of release I caught a shiny Makuhita (called it Lil' Maku and it evolved to Hariyama) and two days later, I got a shiny Bounsweet (nicknamed Jolyne)! It's beautiful fully evolved now :

    Hoping to hunt for more shinies later! òuó9​

    Just found a shiny Fomantis after 15:55 of play time. Was just grind training for the next trial and almost missed seeing it.

  • I was walking into the Abandoned Supermarket after the trial to see if I could find a mimikyu. I got 3 steps in the door, and a shiny Haunter appeared. I'm wildly excited for the pure white Mega Gengar.

  • Currently searching for shiny mimikyu...

    It's been 5 days of chaining so far. The one time I stopped to continue the story I find a shiny Murkrow. I felt pretty good, but like... I want a mimikyu...
