    For shiny poke's?
    Or anything for that matter.

    For me.
    It's either.

    When I'm high in a chain and look away quickly to see something and miss the shakes and stumble upon the wrong patch of grass and get my chain broken.

    Or when there a patch right in front of me that shakes but I don't notice.

    How about you?


    I hope this doesn't get locked ._.
     
    I hate it when you forget about the max repels or run out etc
     
    Oh oh.
    I hate it when I am using a pokemon that runs out of PP for a move >.>
    It's annoying.
    This happened to me with raichu because I forgot to buy Elixirs and such.
    And I needed to keep him in my 1 slot of my part to make my chance of a shinx encounter high.
     
    ha ha you wanted a shiny shinx :D
     
    I hate chaining for hours and catching multiple shinies when none of them have good natures/IVs. '^'

    This hasn't happened to me, but if 2 shiny patches appeared or if the shiny patch appeared where a NPC stood, I would shoot myself.

    I hate Bidoof for obvious reasons. xD
     
    When you work so hard and for so long, and it's up to chance to ruin your chain.
    QFT. Random breaks on perfect grass patterns are the worst part.

    The devaluing of shinies comes in second. They ought to have designed the Radar to reset the chain counter (as used in the shiny patch calculation, not what's in the Poketch) once a shiny patch has been entered. That way, you'd need to chain to 80, save for early shiny patches, to get your second shiny! >=]

    Wait, what? Having certain pokemon in your party increases chances of finding certain pokemon?

    sorry for derail. and if my question was common knowledge of pokemon then i've been missed out of the loop
     
    I hate whenever you spend countless hours in one area before realizing that you just wasted your time.
    If I found the pokemon I was looking for then I'm happy and all but if it hasn't made an appearance yet then I get frustrated.

    I also hate it whenever the chain breaks, especially when I've been chaining for awhile.
     
    i hate when u do everything right u step in to the furthest away patch but yet the chain still stuffs up i hate when that happens
     
    I hate Starly and Bibarel showing up for no apparent reason with their crappy, moronic cries.
     
    I hate when i blink or a bidoof breaks the chain.

    I blinked in the second chain and walked into a random patch and got a shiny machop rofl. All i had was... a magikarp i was EV training in attack. i was like OMFG WTF
     
    I don't hate anything about chaining. :D

    I just hate chaining >:o.

    Let's just say I never made it past a 20. I am too unlucky on this.
     
    I hate when it breaks but Its hard to do it the way I do. I chain til I find the shiny pokemon with a good nature.
