    • That's for just a shiny of one specific Pokémon though. What if I'm looking for four and don't care if shiny or not?

    Assuming it's the April Fool's prank it will last to tomorrow night at midnight or to early morning or afternoon on the 2nd.


    OMG I have no idea whose who on here. This is so confusing.

    • That's plenty of time for me to get something from the Bulbasaur line. And maybe some other Pokemon from my list of favorites.

    EDIT
    Just got a Cubone, so that's one less Pokemon from the list I want to get.

    • I'm aiming for a Squirtle one myself. I'll have my screencap button ready.

    Also Pokémon number zero is apparently a Caterpie. Shiny, too.

    • But I think we're so programmed to think they're rare and cool that they keep on being rare and cool even with 1/3 chance. :D

    Wouldn't it just be more logical to have it always be something like a 1/3 chance? There's high color variation in some of the most common animals (domesticated and wild) that we sometimes give them different species between color/pattern. Idk maybe it's just me who thinks this~

    • No that does make sense and it would be cooler if that were the case but didn't people complain about there being a higher chance of shinies in BW or something? idk if it has started out that way, maybe, but to increase it now would ruin it.

    Oh, well I guess that's true. Shinies are there as an extreme novelty/trophy, I guess. So it would kill the purpose.

    EDIT: that was @ cilan ~
