Alright /vp/ help me get through this. I'm trying to find a shiny Nidoran through random encounters in Heartgold. I might be at 1000, but i'm not even sure.
I'm trying to breed a shiny Mawile in Pokkèmon Sapphire. I know the struggles you go through, good luck on your hunt

3rd gen or 6th gen? Because if it's 3rd gen, then you are in for the ride of your lifetime.
I have one from Horde Encounters in Y, much easier than past games.
Good luck.

I've been horde farming for hours and I've had no luck. I don't have the shiny charm in Y, but god dammit, I'll get my shiny Nidoran if it kills me.

3d... I'm very aware of that, but I don't own any later game and I really fucking want it
>>26592866
Took me about a day without shiny charm, probably got lucky.
FUCK

That's probably about average and my luck has just been terrible. I've only ever horde farmed in ORAS where I do have the charm and I've had pretty good luck, so this has been especially torturous.
Good luck to all of you, I hope you succeed. Also, what makes you pick a special Pokemon for shiny hunting? Why do you want the one you want?

Thanks, anon, good luck to you too.
I usually try to hunt my favourites first. Sometimes I just go for ones I like the look of that are also relatively easy to get (appear in hordes, can be DexNav'd, etc.)

just rng one op
>>26593147
Way too fucking complicated for me. I don't even think i'm at the point of which I can even begin to RNG.
>>26593164
actually, once you caught and used the red gyarados in battle its too late.
if you want to start rng'ing easy mode, try with gen v.
