5th Gen Official Shiny Discussion [ Black and White only ]

[PlatinumDude]

I already mentioned this in the recent captures thread, but I caught a shiny Gothita a few nights back. The nature (Naive) isn't suited for it, but I kept it anyway, making it my first Unova shiny. To be honest, there isn't much of a difference between the original Gothita and its shiny form.

I really hate that, when a Pokemon shiny form doesn't have a huge difference in color. I felt this way when I got a Reshiram off of Wifi today and when I looked in my PC, I didn't realize that it was shiny. i was so shocked when I found that out

The first shiny I met was gurdurr but......... he died.

I haven't ran into any shinies unfortunately, and already beaten the game. one of my friends just got the game a couple of days ago and ran into a shiny foongus and purloin. -.-

Hoping I can obtain a shiny axew, shelmet, solosis, and klink, those are the only 4 I truly like shiny.

Caught him on Victory Road with a quick ball.

If you got a shiny Reshiram off wifi, it's hacked. You can't get a shiny Reshiram or Zekrom. :( Though there's the full box when you go to the tower rumour about them being shiny, but I doubt that really being true.

Either way, if a shiny Reshiram is possible I'd want one...only issue is that I've never found a shiny yet, so. XD

I finally managed to breed a Shiny Heatmor using the Masuda Method! Yey! It was my third try at it and the black and orange Heatmor came on 166th egg.
It happened yesterday night when I was watching TV, I looked down at the hatched-egg screen to see the Heatmor. I was gobsmacked as I tried this twice before and gave up when I got past 200 eggs.
I'm so happy and now I have restored faith in the Masuda method; might even try to breed some other shinies... :)

 

[DemonBlood93]

I have a Shiny Pikachu & A Shiny Rufflet :D

 

[Hypno]

Hatched not so long ago a Shiny Porygon.
He is now on my team.

I loathe anyone who finds a shiny on B/W

I really hope I find a shiny on B/W soon because I just want that achievement of finding a shiny, not just on B/W but on any other game, but I mainly play B/W soooo...

 

[Sheriff Woody]

I have been playing pokemon ever since gold came out. I have played every game that has come out and played through them many times. I have never once encountered a shiny pokemon. Maybe white version will be different.

this generation, I've been really lucky with shinies. so far, during the game, I found a shiny darumaka in the game and caught it. after I completed the pokemon league, I also found a shiny staryu (now a starmie) whilst surfing and caught that. the other shiny I've accquired is a shiny growlithe (now an arcanine) after using the method of breeding with a japanese pokemon. it took a hell of a few days to do, but it was so worth it. it's sooo cute! <3

 

[Kirozane]

So last night a friend was trying to hunt down a shiny Litwick. I felt like trying to breed one so I turned on my japanese black and began breeding my level 100 japanese Chandelure with an english ditto I had transferred over. I didn't expect anything other than what happened in my other breeding attempts... I'd hatch a hundred or so eggs and give up because I was tired of it. That's what I expected...

25 eggs later (I hatch all 5 eggs without looking THEN look at them) the last egg in my batch hatched (26-30) And the first one in the batch was a shiny. She's Jolly|Good Perseverance. I'm honestly debating on evolving her.

Spoiler:

Wow my phone takes poor quality pictures....

 

[Adam.]

Well, with my new gained faith with the Masuda method (when I got my shiny Heatmor), I'm now going to try and hatch a Shiny Trubbish. It definetly looks a lot better shiny as the trash within it's arms (and it's Garbodor's stomach) look like precious metals. :D

 

[y stri]

I caught a shiny Audino when I was training my Serperior. It was 10:00 and I almost fell off the bed. XD

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

I'm going to try the matsuda method and hope to get a shiny seed baby...
so far I've seen a shiny each gen so hopefully I'll find a wild shiny in BW too...
One of my favorite shines is Rashiram...too bad it's impossible to get one without hacking...

 

[StarlightSerenity]

I wouldnt know a shiny if it slapped me in the face >.< Is there a way to tell, other than the colours, if a pokemon is a shiny?

At the very start of the battle watch it closely and it will sparkle for a small bit of time Unlike those stupid Twilight vampires, thats how you tell. If your unsure look up on the internet Shiny * Insert Pokemon Here * and check the colours :D

 

[Zelda]

Not really having the thought of finding a shiny anytime soon throughout the game, I was EV training my Larvesta with Litwick for Special Attack EVs, and I ended up running into this little guy.

Now I can finally raise a shiny Chandelure which I had been planning to for some time now. :D

 

[Giraffe]

I caught a Shiny Minccino in the grass east of Nimbasa City; I was looking for an Audino, accidently ran into some grass, and.... out jumped a Shiny Minccino. I've nicknamed her Narcissa.

I love the way they have a pink-ish tint & little green fluff inside their ears. x33
