Mesuda method is probably the best way. It cuts the shiny encounter rate in half. Also it helps if you have the shiny charm. Since I was able to get 3 shinies within 24 eggs in X after receiving the charm. And having the oval charm also really helps.
As for the shiny values, you got me.

Ok plus I don't understand shiny values :'(
 
When you begin a Pokemon game, you are assigned a hidden number called your SID (Secret ID). When you receive an egg, a number is generated for that egg. If the SID number for your egg number matches your trainer SID, then the Pokemon within the egg will be shiny, hence the term Shiny Value. There is no way to determine what your SID is without using a hacking device or by uploading your Pokemon onto Pokecheck.org (which has been under maintenance since Gen VI began.)
 
So I'm thinking of doing something a little different. How would you guys like to do a Question of the Week? type of thing??

Sounds good to me.

Still trying to breed my shiny Charmander, taking ages this time.

Answer the current topic: For Spring, I'll be breeding Oddish (for Bellosom) and Cherubi in hopes for a shiny to match the Spring weather.

Sounds good to me. I'm full of random trivia, Pokemon or otherwise. To my friends, I'm the go to guy for Pokemon information whether it's breeding, movesets, battle strategies, you name it.
 
Okay guys, there is going to be a new segment of this thread called Question of the Week. Pretty much it's any one person can post a question for the week, any and all members can answer the question at anytime. If there is two (2) questions asked within the first 5 days, it will be used for the following weeks QOTW.

Welcome to the club! Glad to see a new face around here.

I'll start. The QOTW is:
What is your preferred method of hatching eggs? (i.e. With flame body, lumiose circle, going around region, ect.)
 
My preferred method of hatching eggs is with flame body, hatching o-power and around the battle resort in oras.

In other news, I traded for a shiny 6IV japanese ditto today!
 
Thank you!

My preferred method in XY is using Flame Body, with Hatching O-Power S (also with the 4000 3DS steps trick), and riding back and forth the path at the daycare on a bike.

I usually get eggs within 30 seconds - 1 minute of cycling back and forth.
 
Volcarona, Hatching O-power and riding round the beach in battle resort. I did originally setup my secret base in the tree near the mauville daycare but with needing the IV checker the battle resort is much handier.

Whats the 4000 3DS steps trick?
 
As for me in X I use both lumiose center and the route the daycare is on with talonflame; for AS I use the battle resort as well as the bike area/travel around with the hatching power 3 and magcargo.

Current Topic: What is your favorite method of breeding: Mine is pretty standard, Everstone Ditto with the pokemon I am breeding for the nature, then I get the egg and use Flame Body Talonflame with Hatching O-Power 3 to speed up the process.

I also have a question. If someone wouldn't mind trying to help me get up to speed a bit with this?
 
I guess I should ask what usually goes on here.

People talk about their breeding projects, sometimes there's group projects and now we have questions too.
