/shw/- Shiny Hunt Weekend

Hatched a Kangeskhan while breeding some for giveaways. May breed for a shiny Beldum later.

>>26114961
havn't been able to hunt for a while, but a few months back soft-resetted for a shiny regice, shit was worth it.

I just got a female Dratini in a Dream Ball from Wonder Trade.
If it had been HA, I would have jizzed in my pants, but alas.

>>26114961
Got two shiny Charmanders this week, and right now I'm breeding for a second shiny Ralts to get a Gardevoir since I turned my first one into a Gallade. Aftwards, I'm thinking of breeding for a shiny Protean Froakie next.

Going to be breeding for a shiny Zangoose. Been trying all week but no luck. Been doing a few hordes on Y while breeding and got a few shiny Pokes. Probably get a few more.

>>26114986
Last one I soft reset for. Needed to pay attention as I could not tell if shiny if I missed the start pf the battle.

>>26115132
I worried about the same thing, luckily i restarted the battle so many times that by the time there was the slightest change to the battle animation i immediately noticed it,

Got my Contrary Snivy after, which is now a Serperior. Then got a random Shiny Tepig (terrible stats, wrong nature) when I just started breeding for a competitive Tepig. What should I go for next?

>>26115188
I wouldn't have had a clue besides the sparkle at the start of battle. I was doing it while watching tv and looking at stuff online. I'd turn to the screen, see a hunk of ice and have no idea if it was different. Not a fan of shinys like that.

>>26115220
It is kind of hard to tell apart, but regice's shiny is just different enough for me to like more than the original.

Reset my Emerald a while ago. Thinking about finishing it off and soft resetting for groudon+kyogre. Someone convince me not to

>>26116546
Reset for Rayquaza too.

I got a shiny Pyroar and Wooper yesterday while FS hunting. I'd MM, but I don't have anywhere near the patience i had back a couple years ago for it anymore. How do I get back into doing it? My last MM was a Chespin, which was a painless 28 eggs.

>>26116546
You can't SR them. The most you can do is encounter, run away, leave the room, and come back and re-encounter them.

One day...

Got a Shiny Zigazagoon not too long ago, going for Growlithe next.

>>26117380
Oh yes, and I did the Horde method (not sure what it's called) for Zigzagoon, DexNav chaining Growlithe

>>26117356
Good fucking luck

>>26117356
It'll be a male.

From the other day

>>26118410

How did you manage 5 IV's? Luck? I had a few 5IV's coming out but but enough for one to land shiny. Both parents were 5

>>26118419
Yeah luck. I've hatched a few other shinies but this is the first one I've gotten with perfect stats. I got a 6iv foreign ditto from someone on /vp/ a long time ago.

So I guess it's not completely legit. Just hatched a few to get one with 5iv and paired it with the ditto. You don't always get a shiny with the stats you want but that's pretty much the highest chance you have.

Hey Shiny hunt weekdays
I spent about 10 whole minutes, It took so long, But eventually i got my shiny perfect ev trained mons.
Shiny hunting is so much fun.
:)

Still working on a shiny Scolipede with Speed Boost. I have hatched two shinies so far, both without it. Hatched 55 eggs this morning, but so far no luck. I hope I can get another shiny this weekend.

Good times. God tier shiny too.

You know of the pain of Combee Fag, right?

500+ boxes

6 males and 1 female, meaning he still had a better ratio than the actual ratio

Godspeed to anyone who follows that mad path.

I caught a shiny Ralts after an hour of dexnav chaining. What should I go for next?

>>26114961
Hatching shiny Chespin with at least decent stats and a HA with Masuda's Method.

got a shiny driftloon this morning through pure luck. got it int a premierball. Hooray!

got a shiny absol as my main/fav pokemon back when black came out, more than that i rarely have luck...

>>26118698
That's not madness, that's the NEET life.

Day 3 for trying for that shiny clauncher. Give me the Masuda power

Last weekend I got a shiny pumpkaboo oshawott and deino. Now I'm hunting for my contrary sniny. Didn't have much time lately.
>>26118698
I got my shiny female fennekin in 3.5k eggs. I consider myself really lucky.

I've got 30 boxes of Ralts, any easy way to get rid of them or am I stuck releasing them 1 at a time?

>>26119687
Do you have the charm

>>26119711
Yes in both OR and Y
Pumpkaboo took 1.5 k eggs
Oshawott 600 eggs
Deino 1.1k eggs

>>26119695
Nah sadly you can't release boxes only one by one. Usuallt when I collect boxes of eggs I release them as I go

>>26119653
GL with your clauncher. I remember mine took a while and it has like 1 spdef IVs sadly. Hopefully you'll be luckier thqn me in that department.

Finally hatched a shiny Shellder a couple hours ago after 429 eggs hatched. Was hoping for a competitive Cloyster; doesn't have perfect stats, but still pretty good. 28-30/31/31/31/31/31 Jolly nature. Female. And two egg moves, Rock Blast & Rapid Spin.

Holy shit, man. How many would you do a day? Over the course of how long did it take you to find it eventually?

If anyone has a foreign (foreign to the u.s.) swirlix, phantump or sentret, let a brotha know

>>26120953
i still got one from the gamestop trade thing, dont use legendarys at all though

>>26121057
>sentret
i could catch you one, from grmany then

>>26121159
meant phantump

>>26121159
Ok please do, what would you like in return?

>>26121180
trying to complete my pokedex right now, leeme take a look...anything specific you want to have at the phantump? gender?

>>26121194
Female phantump please, ok my pokedex is complete so chances are ill have whatever you need

>>26121216
i could need a caterpie/safcon/Butterfree, all those who are at the GTS are against legendarys or impossible pokemons...

caterpie would be best though

>>26121897
Soft resetting.

>>26122013
aH okay, still not so familiar with all the english terms, only played all games on german and never before went int threads...
i rarely use it, since i never have luck on shinys...my gf is trying to get a shiny suicune on soulsilver though, poor thing.

Anyone free shinys? k ty. i accept 5iv shiny ralts.

>>26122083
what are IV´s again?

I now possess exactly six completely legit shinies: should I build a team? After super training and fully evolving, that is.

>Gallade (friend safari)
>Tangela (wild)
>Machamp (wild)
>Riolu (wild)
>Krookodile (wild)
>Beldum (bred)

From my perspective, i'm going to have trouble dealing with fire (except Krook) and ground (except tangela)

>>26122120
shinys okay and stuff, but a team based on that?

>>26122169
Just asking if it's feasible. Lucario's mega is banned tier, Metagross is a beast, Tangrowth is supposedly a good wall... I know Crookodile is god-tier as a revenge killer with Foul Play. Could I take that group of 'Mon on wifi and battle, or would I just get stomped by talonflames and injects?

Wondertrading off the legion of Dream Ball Male Eevees I've bred, I just got a shiny Braixen, and I see no reason why it can't be legit, other than it being in a Master Ball, which fits with baltisim, but would be rather difficult to get without cheating.
This thing

>>26122282
Rather, this thing looks a lot better than any pictures I've seen of it's shiny line.
All the pictures make the purple look gray and dull, but this is really nice.
I'm going to have to breed two more after I get a Shiny Shuckle.

>>26118613
While it's a nice shiny, these things are entirely useless. Like, absolutely nothing going for it. Not worth it.

I have spent 4. 4 god damned hours dexnav chaining for a Zoroua, not breaks, one single chain. No shiny. I would be furious if I wasn't so drained.

Right nature, right gender, in a love ball with two egg moves from different parents

I named him Playboy.

>>26123403
>him

There's your problem anon.

>>26121579
Took me around 300+ SR
After that I started SRing for a shiny Uxie and got it in 38SR
God it was a good day

I feel like SRing in AS, what should I go for? The only other time i've done it was with the event Latios, and i've caught none of the other legendaries.

5 hours. Still no Zorua. It's very cold.

>>26123535
Zekrom.

>>26123696
What are the requirements for getting it to appear? I'm using a Damp Parasect to catch, level 100. What else should I be doing? Best synch?

>>26123719
I think you have to have Reshram in your party.
That or it's a Lv 100 pokemon in your party.
It'll be on the outcrop of land between Mauvile and the Berry Master's house.
And if you have both dragons in your party, you can get Kyurem, and the DNA Splicer will be in the cave.

>>26123862
Well i dont have a use for a shiny kyurem, i already have one. Parasect's level 100, that should do it hopefully. What level is Zekrom?

>>26123874
50, like the rest.

>>26123887
easy enough, what are Zekrom's moves and PP for said moves? I'm not using a Master Ball unless it's an absolute last resort.

Thinking Luxury Ball for balltism

>>26123894
I don't know, I have OR.

>>26123932
Shouldn't be hard to just check for myself i guess. How about nature?

>>26123943
http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/legendary.shtml

Natures are random unless you have a lead Pokemon with Synchronize, in which case 50% chance Zekrom will have same nature as lead Pokemon.

>>26123943
for fuck's sake lad just look it up

>>26123953
>>26123961
Adamant seems good enough, wish me luck.

>>26121579
Holy fuck that's exactly what I'm SR'ing for right now. Good luck!

I'm stumped on what to MM for, feel like I have everything I want. Ideas? Bonus points if they can be competitive.

Update on clauncher. Been Masuda method all day since was off of school
Tomorrow will make day 4. Did about 600 or so eggs today

How many SR do people usually do a day? Just curious.

>>26125866
School on a saturday?
And thats alot of eggs for one day, i can usually only manage 300 before i have to do something else, also are you going for good stats? Cuz you could just chain fish it

Can something actually have all it's contest stats maxed out?

Yes. You can max contest stats out easy.

I've hatched 5 so far. I have a feeling this is going to be my longest shiny hunt.

>>26127163
Does that matter at all if you don't intend to use Hidden Power?

>>26127236
When you're done, can I have one of the female HA rejects?

>>26127242
No. But HP Fire's good on a lot of grass-type Pokemon, just like HP Ice is good on a lot of Electric-types, so a good amount of people are autistic enough to breed for it.

>>26127269
I'm still not getting how it's good.

>>26127261
I can give you one right now. I'm taking a short break, and I have boxes full of HA females at this point.

>>26127289
Enjoy the Eevee, and god help you if you want more females like that.

>>26127288
Say you're using your Serperior and someone sends out something grass, bug, ice, or steel-type. You're going to want HP fire to deal with them.

>>26127328
I just realized that the HP means Hidden Power here, not Hit Points.

200 deep on Zekrom, gonna keep going until I'm tired. if anyone's curious for some reason i've gotten to mt ordeals in ff4 while doing both at the same time.

My boy. What are you breeding?

>>26129171
Well, I'm wanting to IV breed and shiny hatch a mon but thing is I don't really know where to begin. I have a couple of dittos, one has decent IVs, but a guide I read said it'd be better to have 2/3 with really good IVs.

Which Pokemon are you breeding? I might be able to give you a 6IV Japanese male in the same egg group

>>26129225
Before I got my perfect ditto. I bred a foreign one and an American one with the destiny knot until the American one had the iv spread I wanted. Then stick the destiny knot in that one and you can get yourself a good shiny. It is however difficult to control the iv of a foreign pokemon

>>26129287
Gastly, I intend to use pokemon I like instead of being a full on smogon fag on wifi battles. Also Gengar is my favorite mon next to Crobat.

Damn, sorry. I had a spare penta gastly, but I just gave it away yesterday. I'd breed you something real quick, but I'm in the middle of a hunt, so I'd have to use my american cart.

I have a female ghastly in a moonball and another in a love ball that I could breed you one if you want a nice ball for it?

But she just wants a Hoopa. anyone got one he doesnt need?

SRig for a Regi chocolatebro, havent SR for a while and i forgot just how much i hate it, might have to put on a movie or two to make time pass

After having spent 3+ months getting a Shiny Lugia in AS, and then getting a shiny Lunatone not even 2 hours later, I haven't felt the motivation to shiny hunt anymore.

What are the dexnav odds without the shiny charm?

>>26135088
Dexnav is a flat 1/512 just like the friend safari. Chain length and times encountered have no effect of the shiny ratio.

>>26128081
About to start the SRing up again. 302 deep and i just got the Airship. Wish me luck.

Also SRing's more tolerable with something else to do. Watching videos, playing something else, it doesn't take much attention, especially when playing another rpg

>>26135134
>Chain length and times encountered have no effect of the shiny ratio.
Then why do people bother fainting the pokemon instead of running away as if they were chaining?

>>26135134
>Dexnav is a flat 1/512 just like the friend safari.

Source? Not that I don't believe you, but I've always favored hunting in Y over AS because of the ease of the FS. If I decide to dexnav hunt, what should I know?

>>26135679
Maybe they have Pickup mons with them and want heart scales?

>>26127114
Lol "playing with fire" means he is doing something risky, and it could backfire on them in the end.

>>26135679
The chain only increases the likelihood that they'll have perfect ivs, eggs moves, and hidden abilities.

>>26135762
This is the best source I could find on it.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e4y6TW21TcUSG_Qe2sKzXoMgkwttLlclzV94_DBpUgU/edit
It's not 100% proven that it's a 1/512 chance like we know for a fact the friend safari is, but that ratio would make the most sense.

>>26135840
Maybe i'll give Dexnav more of a shot. The main thing that keeps me from doing it is the fact that I don't know the proper way of doing it. I hit Search and most of the time it just says a pokemon wasn't found.

I've gotten a wingull before, it's fairly easy to see once you know it's there (contrasts with the others decently), but if you're paranoid and have your sound down, looking at them as the camera changes places can be annoying.

They work, and you're just unlucky.

ONE of the pokemon has to have a different language tag. For example, if i'm on an English copy, i need one of those and one foreign. Two foreign won't work.

I don't understand, I just don't fucking understand. Been hatching eggs ALL DAY, not even for a shiny (yet) just to get the IV's right before I do solely go for shiny. I've been breeding with two 4IV parents, then two 5IV parents with destiny knot all day, yet constantly only got 1-4 IV babies.

My current parents are a x/31/31/31/31/31 foreign gibble and a 31/31/x/31/31/31 dratini, yet most I hatch are 4IV.

Then this nigger comes along with x/x/31/31/31/x, one of the shittiest IV ones i've bred (but it has marvel scale).

Please help. I have like 6 boxes of dratini's now and they all have barely 5 IV's.

Should I even keep going? Why do I have such shit luck with IV's?

>>26139833

Just calculated and his IV's are

6-7/6-9/31/31/31/25

>>26139833
Would you like me to fix the IVs on it?

>>26139833
Is there any way you can get ahold of another Destiny Knot, and then just hatch some more until you get the nature you want instead of using an Everstone? And once you have consistently perfect IVs, try to get a shiny from that?

>>26139909

I already have another destiny knot, but i've never heard of two destiny knots at once working.

>>26139930
I'll freely admit I still need to learn more about breeding, but the way the item description reads to me, it's worth a shot.
Can't hurt to try.

>Should I put myself through the pain of filling the Dex for charm in Y as well?
If you have it in one game, it shouldn't be at all difficult if you have PokéBank and a Living Dex.
Bank is just too useful to not have, and a Living Dex is a time saver.

>>26140750
No worries. I'm sure you two were busy. ;) But yeah, friend safari's nice, I wasn't even trying to get anything. That said, if you weren't diversifying your friend safari in the heat of the releases, it might be difficult to do it now.
Also, if you're going to use the game for shiny hunting, I'd definitely get the charm.

>>26141055
Don't worry about it. When will you be back? Tell me what you want and we can trade then.

Of all the time I've spent grinding in the Audino safari I've found 4 Lillipups, 4 Audinos and just 1 Eevee. Typical the interesting one never shows up.

>>26141062
I'd love the gen 1 starters. I'll be switching hotels this weekend, and if it still doesn't work I'll be back home Thursday after this weekend. Apologize about that man didn't even realize, and especially sucks because it seems that old 3DS can connect to phone hotspot but new 3DS can't. Weak

I'm good at multitasking, and ff4 isn't the sort of game that needs two hands. I just hit A on my 3ds a bunch, make sure to be looking for the encounter, and if it's not shiny, reset, usually mid-fight on whatever game i'm playing at the same time

Remember than Ho-oh only has 20 PP. Bring a Slowbro with Recycle, Heal Pulse, Fling and Slack Off holding a Leppa Berry but use Heal Pulse on Ho-oh first before using Fling since it'll do 10 BP damage (if you False Swipe/Hold Back'd on it to 1 HP), but will replenish one of Ho-oh's moves. Then Recycle to gain back the berry, Slack Off to heal yourself, etc.

>>26143114
Forgot to mention, I got it in a Luxury Ball too.

Snivy hunt update

Sadly only one hss contrary but does not have HP fire.
I will resume the hunt tomorrow. Good luck to you all.

After Zekrom, I've decided to go for Regirock. Impish seems like it's a good nature for it.

116 eggs in and I have my Shiny Shuckle!
Now to see if there's anything in the leftover 101 eggs

>>26143380
Yeah, I knew about the 20 PP thing, but I lost track initially (plus had no way of saving it, lest hoping for a crit). Tried switching to Ultra from Luxury as a last ditch effort, but to no avail.

Didn't think about Recycle though. Is there a benefit to using that, over using Leppa berries or Ethers from the bag? Aside from the obvious 'doesn't consume the item' part. Either way, gonna keep that moveset in mind for the future, but I think I'm just going to bring in my highest level heal pulser and waste items, rather than do all the breeding shenanigans and then return to the hunt.

>>26144745
>he collects a bunch of eggs and then hatches it

>>26145155
I collect eggs while I'm hatching them.
Volcarona in front, four eggs, and use the last slot to pick up an egg as I pass by the day care and deposit them.

And I've had luck like this before, when I went for a Mareep, I ended up with three.

>>26145208
Seems everyone goes for a Mareep. i feel like i started that

Personally I just get 5, hatch 5, and repeat. I stick to Y for that because of personal preference.

>>26145239
Does XY function differently in some way from ORAS? Isn't it supposed to have some easy way to tell IVs?

>>26145337
ORAS has the loop/daycare/iv checker in one spot, XY doesn't.

The difference is there are no sand pits in XY, and I don't have Pellipers screeching every 15 seconds. That and you have to readjust every hatch, i think. I've never hatched at the Resort for any long stretch of time.

>>26145367
>hating Pelliper cries

It's, like, the only environmental thing ORAS has going for it. If you're breeding long enough, you're going to be shutting off the volume anyway.

Also, the sand pits seem worse than Hitler if you're watching the screen intently, but if you're doing it passively they no different than if the island was a few squares larger.

Yeah, I already have my bro Jolteon from B2 which is very similar to Manectric, so Im gonna go the Magby route.
>>26146119
Abra is cool but I already raised a lot of non-shiny psychic types.

>>26146186
Good on you.

IT SNOT THE WEEKEND

>>26146458
Not anymore it isn't. Thread's about to hit bump limit anyways.

saging because it's not the weekend

>>26146492
bump because fuck you

mark my words, i'll have a shiny regirock come next weekend

Bump from Page 10.

For the shiny knights in black 2 would I have to catch them the first time around for cobalion and the gang or can I beat them and get em shiny at 65?

Depends what your intentions are. What format would you be playing? OU? VGC? Battlespot? That team isn't going to get you far in any competitive format, but it's decent enough to fuck around with near the bottom of whatever ladder you're playing, or with your friends.

I don't spend all my time hunting shinies. I'd rather be not expecting to find them. Ok, halfway expecting, but i like the shock of finding one.

>>26149905
Except for the ones that you'd kinda have to search for, like the ones that live under rocks.

>>26149905
Its still very exciting to find one unexpectedly though, even if you hunt them. I absolutely shit myself when I found my shiny Hawlucha in my Y playthrough.

Just started MM'ing khangaskan, hopefully should get high iv's, wish me luck bois

Collected another batch of ten boxes of snivy. Gotta hatch them now hopefully I finally get that fucker

You're not doing bad with the number of shinies hatched. How'd this one go?

HOLY FUCKING SHIT! This is why you never give up! Hp fire shiny contrary snivy!

>>26153638
Idk I really got lucky with this hunt. I got 6 shinies in 1k eggs. Well I'm just happy with the result!

>>26153639
Oh right forgot to mention his stats! 31/18/31/30/31/30. He is perfect I'm so happy right now and still can't get over the insane number of shinies I got and how lucky I was with the stats rng. Sometimes it takes 2k eggs for one shiny.
