4th Gen Soft resetting and breeding for shiny Pokemon.

[umbros]

I like the resetting method better, personally, because you can have a Synchronize pokemon out front to attempt to control the nature, but if you're breeding with everstone, I guess you have a similar chance. Since my game got erased a while back, I have to get all my old shinies back. I just haven't tried that much this time around.

Oh, and I remember the first time I tried to get one via breeding, I didn't know that an egg was set as soon as you got it to be how it would be when it hatched, so I saved my game with one step left to hatch it and hatched it like twenty times before I realized that it wasn't going to change.

Hey man thanks for the shiny resetting information alot...XD.

No problem mate ;)

I've been trying to get a shiny rayquaza, not on DP obviously but in emerald its been over 500 attempts and I still dont have it. I will get it one day!

Over 500 attempts and still no luck :'( I am sure one will have to show up soon if you have tried 500 times already.

Cool, I did not think about using Syncronise. I might give it a go later. Thanks :cheeky:
