Has shiny hunting ruined shiny pokemon for anyone else? I remember

No? It sounds silly but I enjoy going on the hunt for the shiny recolors.

Nah - though finding a random shiny is a billion times better than grinding for one.

Grinding for them has it's charm though - but I have to be doing something else (roadtrip, watching a film) or I'd go into a coma

There is nothing in the world more rewarding than getting a Dream Ball HA Shiny Female 5IV Combee

is that a n3ds? XL? Looks somehow really good...

Not really. I mean the thrill of it is nice, but that's not why I want the shinies to begin with.

I just want them cause they look cool. I simply choose between what color scheme I like better for the pokemon, that's it. It being rare means little to me.. besides, finding a random shiny is kind of ruined by the fact that its unlikely that they're competitive.

shinies scream HACKS to me at this point so i just try to stick to normal pokemon myself

I always thought shinies looked tacky.

Shinies are pretty cool but I've never had the desire to grind for any. Got maybe half a dozen that I really should move up to my AS

>autisticly hunting for something thats meant to be a rare random surprise has ruined the random surprise


no fucking shit, gen 6 making them a dime a dozen didn't help either, i got more shiny mons in XY without even trying than i have in the entire rest of the series

>3 shiny magikarp
Random or not? I've got 2 shiny oddish

>>26540501
This.
Only a handful of them look halfway decent.
A lot of the time they're ruined by clashing colors.

The gyarados was random, the first magikarp was hunted but was before i knew about chaining so i kept switching spots but still got it in minutes of searching, the third i got while WT some shit and the last one is an event magikarp i traded for.

>A lot of the time they're ruined by clashing colors.

Agreed. It's easy to see which shinies GF actually put a little thought into and which ones they just didn't give a damn about.

>Someone literally just WTed me a shiny pelipper
Not sure if I want to keep it or not

i clicked on /vp/ accidentally

does this board comprise of 25+ year old men playing pokemon? if so, that is pretty pathetic, just barely above weeb shit and MLP in that order

I mean when it was introduced, it was really more of a gimmick to celebrate GBC hardware. The colors were just negatives.

Shinies since then are actually intentionally colored one way or the other.

heres your (you)

>>26540143

>>26541247
look at the OT, if it looks like a youtube or twitch username like auslove.tv then its injected

>>26541263
It's actually underaged teenagers.

Back into the wondertrade it goes

>>26540143
i switched to injecting before letting shiny hunting waste my time

>>26541353
personally i would keep it for trade fodder, look for a shiny for shiny trade in your passerbys.

>>26540437
How about a Dream Ball HA Shiny Female 6IV Combee and 5$.

>hobbies make people degenerates.
It's called keeping it in check.
Also something like 70% are underaged here.
