/shw/ SHINY HUNT WEEKEND

>>28385338
>>What are you hunting?
-Fucking Shiny Evee in 4G to have a Curser Sucker Punch Umbreon. It's a pain in the ass

>>How?
-Traditional Way... Rip GTS...

>>Get anything recently?
-Shiny memeninja in safari parc, Shiny Gogoat. That's all for this week

>>Got the shiny charm?

>Implying i didn't catch'em all.
Is this a MODS bait?

>Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?

Kalos, it's comfy as fuck, i love traveling in this region, i love getting lost in Luminose City, Traveling in every city... Fuck Hoenn for me.

>>28385338
>>What are you hunting?
Ralts/Gardevoir for the 4th or 5th day now.

>>How?
MM. Breeder Ralts has gone from lv 1 to 62 at this point.

>>Get anything recently?
Haven't gotten a single shiny in ORAS so far, 90ish hours, majority of it breeding.

>>Got the shiny charm?
Nope. Can't be bothered this late (only recently picked up ORAS to prepare for SM).

>Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Hoenn. The resort circle and having IV checker right there is just way too convenient.

>>28385338
>Dratini once I decide if I should keep breeding for a 6iv or give up and keep the 5iv parents
>MM
>I wish
>Yeah
Kalos, I like the long road by the day care

>>28385338
>What are you hunting?
Gyarados
>How
Chain fishing
>Get anything recently?
A shiny Seaking instead of my giant fish, after a chain of 80+
>Got the shiny charm?
Almost. I started a new game without making a living dex first, so I lost my charm
>side topic
Kalos, riding around the Luminose tower is cash

>What are you hunting?
Random shinies, took a break from playing anything on the 3DS starting Sunday. I got tired of my on and off boredom.
>How?
Friend Safari.
>Get anything recently?
Shiny Whimsicott via Wonder Trade and a shiny Igglybuff via Masuda Method.
>Got the shiny charm?
Of course I do.

As for hatching spots, I'm split on that one. Kalos has the better spots(Lumiose tower area in particular), but Hoenn has access to Move Tutors(makes getting egg moves easier for some of the breeding projects).

I'm gonna try breeding for a shiny togepi even though it looks like shit.

Hatched this little bastard last weekend. Hes got a bold nature and 5 perfect ivs.

Not sure if I want to keep him or not since I have a whimsicott already, but if I could find something like a diancie with a good competitive nature it might be worth it

Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Hoenn
Battle resort has everything in one place and alternate music.

>>28387103
What kind of pokeball is it in? Please say it's not a pleb ball.

I mean, imagine this. Shiny heart ball lugia. SHINY HEART BALL LUGIA. That would be the ultimate goddamn lugia.

>>28385338
>Hunting
Breloom for my sand offense team through Masuda's Wild Ride.
>Recent?
Excadrill the other day for said team, dragonite a few days before, and a gardevoir a week before that.
>Shiny Charm?
What kind of casual do you take me for?

>>28387129
Just a regular ass pokeball. I'm not one that particularly likes most of the Pokeball designs.

Basic pokeball is classic, but luxury, premiere, and cherish are also classy

>>What are you hunting?
Any of the 3 Shiny Starters in HG.

>>How?
Soft Resetting.

>>Get anything recently?
Nope, but I'm only at 323 SRs.

>>Got the Shiny Charm?
Doesn't exist in the game I'm hunting on, but I have it in AS.

Planning on doing an HG playthrough in which I only use shiny Pokemon. It'll be tough, but wish me luck.

>What are you hunting?
Eevee and Bulbasaur right now

>How?
Masuda, though I've got tonnes of leftovers which I'm gonna wonder trade off for more shinies (it's sorta okay because they have nice IVs)

>Get anything recently?
Got two shiny cyndaquils yesterday. First after 16 eggs and then 6 eggs later I got another. I was mainly searching for Eevee though, so it's kinda annoying.

>Got the shiny charm?
Of course.

>Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Kalos. I've always loved how the region looked. Hoenn has the circle which is nice and all but changing direction every half a minute is a little more interesting than constantly holding upwards.

Speaking of the devil. Timer ball?

>>28385338
Hey, I made this image. Good times.

>>28387533
I'd honestly prefer great ball or dive ball but it's your call.

>>28387582
Yeah I'm conflicted. Timer fits the theme but looks meh.

>>28387604
I caught it in a quick ball once. Dialga's got a really high catch rate (not sure if he has in ORAS though) so it was easy

>>28385338
>What are you hunting?
Nothing, working on X to get access to the Friend Safari

>How?
Stomping the game with Char X

>Get anything recently?
Riolu -> Lucario on AS, MM 220 eggs. Who thought it was a good idea to turn Yellow Lucario into Green Mega Lucario

>Got the shiny charm?
In AS, yes.

>Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Press up to hatch resort

>>28387604
I miss the custom balls from DPPt.

>>28387533
Used nest ball myself.

>>28387533
Welp, it's timid, but I really want a modest one. Retry or keep? Also timer ball, after 268 SR.

>>28387762
IVs?
Timid isn't bad for a SpAttacker.

>>28387762
Timid is decent enough check the ivs, I'd keep it if it has them on the right places and/or got a cheeky 4th iv.

>>28387428
The problem is that its regular sprite was the wrong color before. Can't blame this one on Gen 6.

>>28387807
IV's wouldn't even matter to me anymore for the legendaries because of Hyper training, but it not being modest trigger my autism. Guess I'm going to try again, it were only 268 SR for it so far anyway, and I still have some time til Uni starts. Not like that would take away time anyways. (Also: Syncronize now only worked in 1 out of 4 cases. Fuck me.)

>>28387850
Now I don't disagree with you but how does a shiny manage to be wrong for about say....3 gens?

I need a shiny to hunt, /shw/. Help me out

Too bad it's timid since I didn't really gave a shit about it's nature because it was dex filler.
Is there some kind of meme special attacker raticate?

I feel like shit for getting shinies on GTS since they're obviously hacked.

I got a shiny metang the other day and as much as I want a shiny metagross I just had to release it, it would trigger me too much.
And yes I know they gave them out on ORAS but I got cucked out of it by not buying oras and just dropping the games for a while.

>>28389057
That actually sounds pretty good, thanks anon.

>>28389198

Caught this beauty in the sky pillar. I caught shiny swablu and global last week, so with this one I finished horde hunting in sky pillar. Who should I hunt next? Kind of been eyeing a shiny Luxray

>>28389268
I know it ruins a lot of people day to know their traded mon is hacked, besides it means I'm basically putting it back into the wild and just passing on the problem and doing what the previous guy did.

>>28389198
I got cucked by the oras is bad meme too

Metagross is not something I want to MM for.

>>28389337
It's ok I played the games later.

And boy I was glad I didn't spent money on it, I'm afraid that meme was real.

I just want you all to know I found my first ever shiny today.

It was a Foongus

Fucking kill me

>>28389378
Amoongus is really great in doubles or for stall teams, don't hate.

Hacked item, right?

>>28389537
There was an event distribution to celebrate the ORAS launch that gave people shiny beldums.

>>28389537
Nope. Though I think you can SR for it

There was a Beldum event when ORAS released.

I'm kinda mad I missed out on it and that I missed out on a chance to organically have a Metagross pre-E4 too.

Why do you hunt a shiny that looks almost identical to the regular version?

No but a Hidden Grotto spit one Pachirisu at me yesterday, I can cook you up one squirrel, so you can have a World Champion level Pokemon

>>28389945
Who cares. A shiny is a shiny...plus he probably got the other 2.

Oh, that's a sweet looking shiny. Cave dexnav fucking sucks, and you can't do that 50-100 chain with the way it moves around, but i'll still get a better shiny rate.

Cave and water dexnav hunting would be so much better if they stayed in the same spot for double the amount of time...or at least don't go whack a diglett after 4 chains.

How the fuck am I supposed to chain, every time it breaks on the 7ish one be it because I either end up on the edge of a patch grass following almost guaranteed chains and end up with like 1-2 patches that barely move or it decides to break right there.

>>28390172
Easy. Don't use the radar in XY.

But seriously not sure what to say. There's not enough grass in kalos.

>>28390172
reset the radar until it's a flawless shaking grass. this is literally the only way. be strict about what grass you walk in.

I'm hoping for just anything that isn't Dark or Poison. I got too many of those on my team already.

>>28390606
I ended up not getting lucky in it's nature, so it's Jolly. From the stats screen I can see it has a 31 in it's DEF IV, and I basically EV trained it above Couriway City, where you get a bunch of Def EV's. So it's been pretty bulky. It's my first time using one, and Water Pulse has been destroying everything so far.

>>28390649
Just save it for sun and moon dude

>>28390666
When you get to Dendemille for the first time, three heart scales get you Dragon Pulse/Dark Pulse/Aura Sphere

It's not crazy coverage but it slays everything ingame.

>>28390672
I want to trade it to SM

>>28390723
So just breed it on xy with the IVs you get and then trade it to sun and moon and get the missing IVs on the training there.
It's 2 months away, no need to possibly trash it for one iv.

>>28387503
aaaaaand I just something shiny off wonder trade. And what was it? A shiny typhlosion. Of course. This game fucking hates me

>>28390714
Oh I knew that already. It's just been boxed for a long time since I wasn't too Jolly with it's nature. So I took it out yesterday and trained it from 25 to 58 so far. And despite the _Sp. Atk nature it's been putting in work.

The Skuntank I got from a horde, and it's Atk IV's is at 30. So I ended up Super Training it, at least for Atk. I'm just not happy with it's movepool.

What's your MM process? Do yall do a bunch of eggs and then hatch em or do it all simultaneously?

>>28391253

That still takes much longer than those minor sand pits.

Having everything, absolutely everything readily available in the battle resort beats 10 slow tiles.

>>28391438
Holding Left is more comfortable than holding Up for me. Besides, again, fuck hearing Pelliper every 10 seconds and fuck realigning.

I also don't think going to the PC to box every egg is quick. If i get the shiny early i'd rather not have to hatch 5 boxes. Also, no space for anything in AS's pc

Yes (except in Y since it's the beginning).

>Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Hoenn. Everything is right there and you can change the music; however, if it's a Kalos mon, I must hatch it in Kalos.

I don't particularly care about the shiny version over the regular version, I just think it'd be neat to own a shiny of my favorite poke.

Anyone got any shiny hunt memes? I need my fix

>>28395579
You get a shiny charm by completing the national pokedex and talking to the professor. It doubles your chance of finding a shiny from encounters or breeding. You can also get an oval charm from completing your regional dex, which makes eggs appear more often in the day care.

I hatched this earlier this week after 23 boxes though I'm not exactly sure why, a lot of people probably don't even remember that this pokémon exists

I hate to admit it but it's actually the second one I hatched too, the first one had gluttony and worse IVs, if anyone wants it

I'm working on larvesta now, 10 boxes in

Yesterday I got a poliwag, foongus and spinda
No I'm just super lucky. Of course I have it, though once moon comes out I'm not going to try get it back for a while at least.
I prefer kalos but that's because I don't have the shiny charm on omega ruby. Hoenn is more fun to adventure around but the battle resort is to awkward to hatch eggs in for me and with the changes to mauville it's the only place to hatch eggs easily compared to lumiose and route 7 in kalos.

Hey shiny hunters,
I'm looking for some advice.

Which shinies do you guys consider to have the most trade value?

I'm looking for a Meloetta to finish my living dex and the best i can probably offer is some shiny of sone sort, so i'm wondering, what shinies do you think would be able to net me a Meloetta?

>>28403494
Hit up the wi-fi general. Finished the last 30 mons in my dex in like 45 minutes there. Pretty obvious every single one was cloned/fake but whatever, they're just legendaries so who even gives a shit? You can do it, anon. Never give up!

>Pretty obvious every single one was cloned/fake

b-but anon! they swear their pokemon are all legit and that they NEVER cheat!

I guess I could, but then its just a slippery slope to having everything for the living dex just injected.

Its just the principle of it I guess.

How does the dexnav chaining actually work? Isn't it supposed to break?

But I can literally run to the town nearby, heal up and even mess up some hidden pokemon in the bush by running near it to make it flee and my search level keeps increasing still without breaking

zigzagoon are quite easy to find because they have hordes everywhere. i've gotten a few of them from hunting other horde pokemon, you'll come across another one easily if you keep encountering.
i had a geodude get murdered recently which i'm not too upset about but i accidentally ran from a stunky that i didn't see until i had hit run, that one will always upset me.

>>28405194
Yeah I'm not super sad about it, it's just... I wasn't even chaining or anything. It was just a random shiny in the wild without anything increasing the odds. Don't see too many of those myself.

I got both of these last Wednesday, I've been trying to get a Heatran and Reshiram lately.

trying to figure out if it's better to go for Shiny Charm or just start MMing for my Gastly.

I'm at 458 on my Omega Ruby dex. I got a lot of the harder-to-get stuff out of the way like pseudos and starters but it's just irritating at this point because leveling in ORAS is harder (yeah you have secret bases but grinding up Blisseys is like half an hour per battle just because of watching the level up bar crawl, and it fucks stuff up for 3 stage mons.

>>28400460
I love Heatmor and his shiny. I want to radar chain for the guy, but he's a 5%er and it's hard and I am stupid. Nice tho.

I decided to go shiny hunting on Black. I had not played it in a few months, but when I played it my entire team had Pokerus for some reason.
Leave a cartridge alone for half a year and get the Pokerus. Go figure.
Also: STILL NOT EVEN ONE SHINY

>>28407018

>>28406976

Top that

>>28407018
You'll literally never get two, let alone five.

>>28406912
True, but that's still slower than Audino, which I fucking never see on islands these days

>>28407125
I can't top that, which is so fucking frustrating! Pokerus, which is supposed to be rarer than finding a shiny, randomly manifests itself out of fucking NOWHERE, yet still no shiny.
At least I stocked a few Pokerus mon in my box.

I've easily put 60+ hours into SRing for this fucking stupid fucking Lugia

Only a coincidental Shiny Weepinbell while hunting for Gligar hordes.

Senpai...why you no taunt?

Sucks man. Though it could have been prevented. Plan a little better next time.

Doesn't work with Hidden Abilities.

287 Eggs and still no Shiny Growlithe.

Got it on this week:
Carvanha and Wailmer, both by fish chain. Carvanha after 76 and Wailmer after 30

Next Goals
> Fucking Amazing Shiny Whimsicott
> Blue Mew-failed clone Ditto
> Golden Shinx

Chain fished me a shiny Feebas.

Overall 40 encounters, but I accidentally my chain, so the lucky chain was 14 long.

Jolly with Swift Swim, that turns into Marvel Scale.

Coil set?

>SR'tting before even knowing how the shiny looks like

Haven't got the shiny charm. Using Horde Encounters to increase my chances.

Possibilities: Nidoran, Stunky or Starly.

You're about 6 posts too early

>>28407018
Have you calculated the chances? I'm not good at probability.

>>28385338
>>How?
Breeding
>>Get anything recently?
Wurmple that evolved into a god damnned beutifly instead of dustox.
>>Got the shiny charm?
Ye
>Side Topic: Kalos or Hoenn, which do you prefer when it comes to hatching? Why?
Kalos, I find it comfier to just ride back and forth in front of the daycare and farm berries, I have about a billion of each berry.

>>28412274
Shit forgot to mention I'm hunting piplup and cloyster. I have to switch it up so I don't end up hating whatever I'm going towards, I get sick of breeding for cloyster, I throw piplup in, etc.
