6th Gen Has anybody gotten a Masuda Method Shiny yet?

Where do you get Hatching O-Power? I looked around and visited all the hotels on my travels but I never got that one and I sure could use it!
 
I've got 155 Dratini's in my box. No shiny yet.
 
I'm at about 1200-1300 pinsirs, I've taken my foot off the peddle as I was really going for it last week, I know it will happen eventually...

Serebii has it all in its O Powers page. Just rememberBefore unlocking the pink man giving out the hatching power you will need to have unlocked all the others
 
Stay strong and keep pushing forward fellow hunters! You will get your shiny!

Here are the results from my hunts to provide more perspective for those that are feeling uneasy about their MM setup:
I hunted for a shiny Furfrou and Beldum so far, and was successful.

For Furfrou I had:
Parent A: Ditto (JPN)
-Nature: Mild
-Held Item: None
Parent B: Furfrou (ENG) [Female]
-Nature: Impish
-Held Item: Everstone
~ After a painful 1150 eggs later ~
Shiny Child: Furfrou (ENG) [Male]
-Nature: Impish


For Beldum I had:
Parent A: Ditto (JPN)
-Nature: Mild
-Held Item: Destiny Knot
Parent B: Beldum (ENG)
-Nature: Jolly
-Held Item: Everstone
~ After 632 eggs later ~
Shiny Child: Beldum (ENG)
-Nature: Jolly

So fear not! As you can see from my Beldum results, the Destiny Knot and Everstone will not skew your chances (well at least not skew it too ridiculously imo, if at all).

Good luck everyone. Your shiny will hatch[FONT=&quot]–[/FONT][FONT=&quot]–[/FONT]you just have to keep hatching!

You will also need high/max style points in lumiose city before he will show up. Getting style points Is not hard but it can take a while, just make sure to do everything in lumiose city and if you still don't have max style points go to the pokeball store and keep buying quick balls one at a time as that will slowly raise your style points up.

So...

Greninja (F) with Protean and Adamant nature
Held Item: Everstone

+

Japanese Ditto with a Bashful nature

... many Eggs later.

=

Shiny Froakie with Protean OR Shiny Froakie with Torrent.​


Is that pretty much the formula?

Or can it be male? I'm new to breeding so excuse my noobness :)

Yep, you got it.
Both Froakies are also guaranteed to be Adamant with the Everstone placement you have. Unfortunately (or fortunately), the gender will still be affected by the species gender ratio no matter what item your parents are holding that I know of.

Also, I believe I heard the possibility for a female to pass down her HA to the child is at/around 80%. Though I'm not sure of the pairings (Female & Male of the species, and/or Female & Ditto) to achieve this probability. Regardless, the females should have a higher chance than the males do for passing on the HA.

Good Luck with your hunt!
 
1,700 eggs and haven't gotten the shiny Electrike. Not gonna lie I am dissapointed that I haven't gotten the shiny yet, but that's how luck is sometimes so I just hope I get it soon.
 
SOOOOOOOOO, after just a few eggs (around 1400ish) I finally got a SHINY PINSIR,
Adamant, 4 max IVS HP/ATT/SpD/SPE
Unfortunately it ended up with 'Hyper Cutter' and not 'Moxie' that I had my fingers crossed for, however its still a great outcome!

Thank you everyone for your support...I got there in the end.

Below is just a sneak peak of the new bug:

Going for a shiny Ralts now. Hope I get one which isn't male.
 
Did my first Masuda Method earlier today and got a shiny Deino on my 25th egg :)

Congrats :) Glad you got there in the end. It looks awesome, I think I may have to try for one of those after my shiny gastly.
 
I'm at 335 for my quest of the shiny eevee, and its getting harder for me to keep going. Exspecially when I have a team of shinies to get trained up.
 
I got a shiny Adamant moxie pinsir in about 600 eggs....
I was kinda sad it was a female but when i checked... it had 5 perfect ivs!
 
400 Ralts, still no shiny. I really hope I don't get a male one.
