Soft reseting success stories

>>25879893

dude it will take you ages

Got Latias in 1 week
Got Mewtwo in 2 weeks
Got Darkrai in 2 days
Got Shaymin in >6 months
Got luck anon, soft reseting is boring as fuck but when you see the sparkles is awesome

why not just hack it in?

>>25879893
It's doable. Definitely. Got me a shiny Rayquaza back in SS by SRing. Took maybe 4-6 days, not too bad.

You'll go through phases. Some times youll be wondering if you saw it and didnt realize it due to the monotony.. trust me, you didn't. Also just remember not to give up, otherwise literally everything youve done up tot his point would've been a complete waste of time.

Helps do multitask so you dont go insane.. chat with friends, watch Youtube, do whatever.

Anon, you're missing the point. He wants to actually find it himself. It's about the effort and the payoff for that effort for him, not just a green mewtwo.

I know and it's pretty ridiculous how I started doing this. I was trying to catch Mewtwo with a PokeBall (since Gen 4 I've been kind of obsessed with catching Pokemon only with PokeBalls), but I wasted like 60 on him, finally started to struggle until he KOed himself.

In that moment I thought "Well, I'll use my Master Ball, but I'll make it worth".

And that brought me to this current moment, this is my 2nd day.

That wouldn't be satisfying

Thank you bros!

I'm doing some reaaaally tedious work, so I went to Southern Island looking for Latias (in Emerald, I got the e-reader card), but I don't know how RNG... Long story short, Crobat used Thief, Latias used Mist Ball, Crobat is down and now I have like 20 Soul Dew

Just SR for a mewtwo in XY or ORAS.

Anon, I...

Not soft-resetting but also tedious work.

I'm looking for my first-ever Feebas in Emerald. 46 tiles checked out so far, 5 battles per tile. Time for a break.

>>25881512
You idiot...

>>25881571
>five battles per tile
I'm pretty sure the rate at a Feebas tile is 50%. I always try twice then move on.

I've never had to try more than four tiles.

>>25879893
i'm soft resetting for shiny dogs in oras, so it shouldn't be long. i'm 2 weeks busy on raikou, the other two didn't even take 2 days.

>>25879893
Keep at it. I've SR for Mesprit, Uxie and Regirock the past few weeks. Currently doing so for Lugia. Accidentally reset on a shiny one last night when tired. Just got to see the pink belly as I hit the buttons. Been trying all day to get another.
