Got up to 720 eggs for Zigzagoon currently and no shiny yet.

I know I can just horde hunt it, but I'm afraid of being unlucky enough to get 2 shinies in the horde.

Actually thought of hunting for Eevee on GoD too (because I had an urge to play again but I wanted something different in my playthrough) but not too sure about it.

>>32850553
Thanks. Good luck to you too

I've been hunting for shiny male litleo and if anyone doesn't know there's only a 12 percent chance of litleo being male. I've gotten 2 shiny females and have gone through about 20 boxes. Wish me luck lads.

>>32851569
Damn, didn't know that

But it seems like I always get shinies from the FS

>>32850483
Finallt I got myself to hunt again. I on Shiny Mareep now and just barely started. Now I just wait for 6IV one.

>>32851602
Good luck mate. I wanted one Female Eevee. I hatched 3 males instead.

I was hunting for Cutiefly and got to 1050 RE's but my 3ds died so I'm waiting for it to get fixed.

I was thinking in huning for Piplup in Platinum in the mean time.

>>32851565
Shit, that must be irritating

Are you gonna do alternate colors/forms eventually? Like Florges and Unown, I mean.

You didn't actually need this last sentence. The rest of your post makes it plenty obvious.

I inject for competitive and still breed for shinies, and I know plenty of others who do the same. I don't think you're as autistic as you think you are.

Well, that may explain why I didn't get my Shiny Glameow after 62 boxes, even if I changed parnets 3 times. Players may not like Gen 6 overall, but it had best RNG in years.

If you want a Shiny Glameow so badly I don't see why you couldn't just use the Cute Charm glitch in Pearl to get one, as well as many other shinies?

Gen 7 RNG in a nutshell.

>>32852826
Well, the worst was when I got a shiny Grubbin at 1600 eggs, and just after that, two Mareanie at 80 and 50 respectively.
The RNG of this game is just ridiculous.

>>32851899
That will probably come after I finish the living dex. The Vivillon forms will definitely be a bitch.

How can I get Elegant/Thundra/Marine patterns on Vivillon?

People who MM in SuMo, what is your routine ?
Getting 5 eggs then hatching them all or boxing them as soon as they hatch ?

>>32853224
get 5 eggs, replace the most recently hatched one every time an egg is available. ez pz

>>32853224
I get 5 Eggs, take another 5 to hatch later and release them as soon as they hatch. Only 5~ Eggs to hatch after Shiny and anything to release later.

>>32850483
>>What are you hunting?
Cutiefly
>>How?
The worst way possible. Fuck egg hatching
>>How far in are you?

Evice's Tyranitar was nowhere near as bad as this is.

>>32850661
>Actually thought of hunting for Eevee on GoD too
Do it.

>>32851602
Funfact, that 12.5% chance is actually lower than that because GF fucked up years ago.

>>32851946
Why even use a shiny if you're just going to cheat?

>>32853224
I collect 10 boxes then I hatch them. That's how I role.

>>32853622
This is fucking retarded, I wonder if they will fix that in USUM. (Probably not because "who the fuck cares about mistyped code")

Masuda method is actually painful in Sun/Moon. Why didn't they put a big road in front of day care just like in XY ?

Is chaining any better ? I've never liked it in the previous games (except ORAS) but it seems less clunky in this version.

>>32853704
>been around since gen 4

Yeah right.

>>32853756
There is a big road. Too bad it has like 2 load screens in it. As for SOS, hope you like waiting ages for pokemon to call for help, fail, and then get your shiny rates reset at 256 encounters. Honestly, just hunt in gen 6 instead, unless you're like me and going for a gen 7 mon

It's been wrong since gen 4, but got even more wrong in gen 6.

>>32851602
Good luck, anon. It took me 18 females before I got a male. May you have better luck than I did.

REs are fast but sometimes I don't get one even after over 10.000 REs so for me this was really fast.

>>32854819
Congrats. I can't shiny hunt like that because I'm always afraid that the partener pokémon kill the shiny.

Moon too, since I bought Moon and well, I fell in love in Lunala's design since the first time I saw it. Kinda sad that it has such obvious Shiny.

>>32855219

>>32853224
I collect 5 eggs, then collect more eggs while hatching my current batch. Once all the eggs in my party have hatched, I go to the PC and swap out my hatched mons for eggs. I then repeat the process until I stop for the day.

I've been gone for a minute

Is shiny swapping still alive and well since the last update?

What's stopping me from killing myself?

>>32856789
That's how it is with Safari Zone. You have to do it knowing what will happen.

Any tips for shiny hunting in HGSS?

>>32856807
A lot of patience.

>>32856807
Unless you're comfortable with rng abuse, all you have is RE's and SR's. Ho-oh has like no PP, by the way

>What are you hunting?
Magikarp. If it's a female, I'll swap into a Togepi and hope I get lucky with the gender roll. If it shows up as male, I'll swap in for a Gible instead

If the Magikarp shows up as Male, I'll prolly settle for Grimer or something. I've got too many backups to swap in case I don't get the roll I want

>How?
Masuda Method + shiny swapping. Hopefully, swapping is still a thing. I know they removed the date switcharoos with Poké Pelago. I'd hate to find a shiny Magikarp right about now and find out I can't swap anymore

>How far in are you?
400 or so eggs over the span of 4+ months. Stopped playing regularly back in March

>Last shiny?
Ferroseed. Forgot how many eggs it took since it was ages ago

>>32856807
Yes
To make more progress, make a daily minimum of SRs/REs/Eggs or whatever it is, so that you won't get demotivated.

>>32850483

>What are you hunting?
4 shiny female Oricorio
>How?
Masuda Method
>How far in are you?
I currently have 2 shiny female Oricorio. This technically hasn't been taking all that long so far, I haven't been playing the game as much lately due to other more urgent things going on in my life.
>Last shiny?
Shiny Oricorio number 2 unless I count the shiny Magikarp from a little while back.

I bought Moon during release but didn't finish it until recently because of work and other stuff happening.

How's MMing on Sun/Moon? Is it easier that XY?

I plan on getting Pokebank to transfer Dittos and stuff with egg moves. Are there any cool new Bankball/HA combos you can now do?

>>32857072
Be ready to open thousand of eggs because the RNG is fucked up lol

How does the cute charm glitch work in HGSS?
Also somehow the game crashed and the 3ds went black for about 5 minutes before i even could turn it off. I had to remove the game and wait... weird, is my game spook'd?

>>32857072
Stick to gen 6. Hunting in gen 7 is fucking terrible. I'd rather full odds SR.

Why is egg hatching so boring in SM?

>>32864236
It's always been boring, it's only worse in SM because it's slower to one hand it, meaning you can't go and shitpost while hatching as easily. That and the fucked RNG

>>32864255
>the fucked RNG
What's wrong with it?

>>32864400
tldr it's set far in advance so the optimal way is to throw a magikarp in, hatch a box, and reset and hatch the box again if you find a shiny in it. It's more monotonous than normal because you constantly have to count how many karps you have and shit. I've never had a good hunt in SM.

>shiny hunting in SM
>had to repair TWICE the circle pad
Is the circle pad pro worth?

>>32864495
Oh that thing I only did it once and got a shiny trapinch out of it with good ivs and a bad nature. SOS chaining has always yielded good results for me

>>32864679
Too bad i can't do that instead because there's S T I L L no move tutor that teaches Egg Moves. GF preaches about how mass breeding is soulless, but between egg moves/natures/ivs/balls/shininess they heavily encourage hatching by the hundreds. Every one of the things I just mentioned, barring shininess, should be changeable. It's "Gotta catch em all" not "Gotta hatch em all"

>>32864712
Most egg moves suck though

>>32864784
The point is some of them don't and are basically VITAL to have. How in the fuck is anybody supposed to know what moves are egg moves without a guide?

>>32864807
Its not like you can't just look them up online you fucking sperg or just inject if you care so much.

>>32864909
I shouldn't have to fucking read a wiki nonstop about this shit. I hate everything about breeding. Fuck the daycare and fuck GF for forcing people to sit outside it

I just fell in love with shiny minun and plusle. I need them asap. Might be my next hunt.

If it were up to me, yes. Yes you could have it.
If you're swap breeding just make sure you're not switching to a fixed/no gender pokemon. I haven't messed with it myself, but it apparently throws the rng off, and I'd hate to see ya waste 2 months.

>>32866405
it's a 50/50 pokemon, and the 54 boxes i've done is made worse because i hate MMing more than any other way of hunting. Before you say that's not a lot, like 35 of those have been in the past 2-3 weeks.

I dunno if you'd care enough, but I actually hatch jolly karps with 6 iv parents. So as a side thing I keep some of the karps that come out with 6 ivs or 5 ivs in the right places, then put them in the pelago for ev training, and send them off over wonder trade. It is a nice little side distraction that has the benefit of helping someone that pays attention and wants a top quality gyarados. I'm sure some people just immediately release them or send them off to the next person without checking... But I like to think there are loads of fantastic mega gyarados out there stomping stuff with my OT on them.

>>32854717
Sorry I wasn't here earlier but I can trade now if you are available.

Na, whatever floats your boat. I wish I enjoyed some other method of shiny hunting besides MM so I can take breaks, but I expect a quality out of my shinys I'm not guaranteed any other way.

>>32869316
I was doing a marienie MM hunt but shiny hunting in sm means i will have to repair my n3ds eventually bc the circlepad is made of wet cardboard

It's been a week. Still no shiny

>>32869355
I've been spinning that circle pad for about 400 hours now on SM alone. I wonder when mine will go? Seems to be perfectly fine for now. I'd like to upgrade to a New 3DS, but my gay X/Y special edition 3DSxl keeps me locked down and happy for now.

(I just noticed how you worded that, is the New 3DS circle pad inferior to the one on my 3DSxl?)

>>32859181

Relative novice here; how do you get a shiny with ivs that good? Did you actually get a 6iv foreign tentacool lr something in its egg group to breed with?

>>32850483
>Hunting
Actually need motivation, I'm newish at shiny hunting (As in, have done little but have hunted properly since forever)
>How?

>How far are you
In the picking stage ;-;
>Last shiny?
Just got my Shiny Sandlash after my obligatory Eevee

>>32869423
Most are using an injected japanese ditto with 6ivs, but I wouldn't wanna come out and say he is without knowing, cause I could just be shitting on many hours of work.

>>32869423
Usually I don't use ditto when I can since I have a ton of other 5ivs foreign mons from wonder trade in all kinds of egg groups.

>>32869388
I had a normal 3ds but i broke the circle pad with OR's pokeradar, the n3ds circle pad seems fine, but i already noticed a loose movement when i spin, also SM controls force the circle pad to be totally pushed to one side or another or you won't move.
(The calibration tool in settings is a placebo btw)

>>32869435
It depends, do you want hexaperfect matching abilities/natures shinies or just shinies for the sake of being shinies?

>>32869763
I tend to go for the perfect version of whatever I'm hunting, but Sandslash was just because I really like the shiny.

I know you lot probably don't care, I just want to be happy with this likely shit shiny I just got. First one in 2 years or so and during a nuzlocke no less during my platinum run.

Just need a name for it

Weird Q, have any of you actually found a shiny in the wild without the charm or intent?
I'm 99% sure I saw a Shiny Aron when I was a kid on emerald because I remember being utterly baffled that it had blue eyes instead of red.

>>32869844
For reference I missed Gen 2 so I had no idea what a shiny was for a long time.

>>32869844
Just above ya, but it isn't my first random one, found a zigzagoon as a kid and thought something was wrong with it due to being told so by my older sibling and killed it and later on I found a random oddish on heart gold and a random fletchling about two years or so ago.

>>32869774
Pajeet

>>32869844
Been playing pkmn since Gen 1, got my first non-hunt shiny at random while compleding my pokedex in Moon. Shiny Psyduck, no chain.

Got a shiny slowpoke, still compleding my dex, still no chain, the day after.

Also called it on being shite as all random shinys have to be

Sassy nature with the following apparent ivs

HP - 15-21

Played every generation at release except 3rd. I've found 4 shinys under your conditions.
First wild shiny was a Snover in Diamond.
Second was a Pelipper in Moon.
Third was a Golbat in Moon.
Fourth was an Absol in White 2.

>>32869929

>>32869844
Quite a few actually. Those that come to mind are a shiny durant and floette during Y and a shiny ditto in moon. I had the charm for that last one tho.

Anyone here doing Safari Week?

I'm hunting on the safari zone and I just got this! 2228 REs and it's my first shiny from Safari Zone. I was so nervous that it might flee but after 3-4 broke outs, I caught it!

Now will see if I get another one.

>>32870253
Damn, I'm seeing a lot of shiny Rhyhorns for this hunt, as in most SW hunters have gotten them. What's your target for your next phase?

>>32870267
I'm hunting for whatever that shine but I would really like a Nidoran male. I really like that blue on him.

>>32870250
that seems kinda autistic to be honest but i'm not judging

>>32870275
Good luck. Many years ago, I lost a shiny Nidorino in FireRed's Safari.

>>32870281
It's been a thing for quite some year now with the same rules. I guess the reduced odds kills the true fulfillment of the hunt.

>>32869844
>shiny Boldore in Sun
>shiny Fletchinder in Sun
>shiny Poochyena in Emerald

all of these are random encounter without a shiny charm. i also had a shiny Mankey in FireRed, but i accidentally turned the game off so it doesnt exist.

>>32869844
In FRLG (all lost): Pidgey, Mankey, and Zubat.

None in HGSS.

>>32869844
I found a shiny Ledyba before I was given Poké Balls in Crystal back in the day
Found a Smeargle on the first playthrough of Moon after release

>>32869844
I've been a proficient Shiny hunter long before there was a Shiny Charm in the series to make it easier.
Having hunted in many of the older games, I've encountered way too many to list them all.
Would like to add that it's really nice that Gamefreak has introduced Hyper Training so that many of my older Shinies (mostly caught in Pearl) can be made good enough for battling instead of just sitting around in the PC.

I am thinking about going for a payday skitty but am unsure if that is possible

>>32870404
Forgot to mention that these are all without a charm and random encounters, and an Unown A was also found in FireRed, but I've since lost that cartridge.

Except shiny Aron is the one with the red eyes.

>>32870427
That's why I said intent, I mean through sheer 1/stupid chance rather than trying, but I do agree on the Hyper Training point
>>32870617
Yea I mean when I got older and saw Aron I said "What the fuck I thought Aron had red eyes, I remember seeing one for the first time in that cave but I couldn't catch it!"
I wonder when the realization hit me

>>32870787
This happen to me once on 2nd gen. I remember seeing a green zubat but run from it because I didn't know about shinies lol

I'll have to fix its stats with bottle caps and change its Ability with an Ability Capsule, but other than that it has the Nature I wanted so it'll be perfectly usable.

Sun and Moon hunter newfag here. Should I get the shiny sharm before I shiny hunt?

>SRing in SS for Articuno
1 hour and not a single jingle

>>32881069
Yeah. The way the rng works almost makes it seem questionable, but it seems silly to not get it. Maybe if you're just trying for one, and don't plan on going for multiple shinys. Then I would agree with not getting it first.

>>32881168
Aw fuck. I hate completing the dex for the shiny charm. I guess it's easier since it's not the national one, but I'll do it. Thanks anon.

Glad the thread is still up. So if i finally get my sandle ill able to tell my shiny hunting friends. Because i domt have any friends that play irl . there all some Xboxfags

Question, does SR affect SOS shiny hunting? Just got to 255 with no shiny and used a bit of items but don't want to reset if it still keeps the odds the same anyways

after 1st box
>Last shiny?
Pidgey, random encounter in Leaf Green (on an emulator unfortunately) during grinding in my nuzlocke, funny thing is that little guy appeared few seconds after I realized I had never found shiny in the III gen game

>>32885044
Thanks! Yes he will be my Mega in competitive. I know he's not that great but I really like him so I'll probably end up using him most of the time anyway

Bulbasaur, then other grass starters

Masuda
>How far in are you?
I've bred at least 10 boxes full, haven't kept exact count.
>Last shiny?
Tangela, evolved into Tangrowth. Took about 50 dexnav encounters.

Is Salazzle or Vespiqueen the most sought after non legendary shiny?

>It's actually 80% since it's a female
Hey, thanks! You just taught me something that may be useful in the future. Appreciate it.

>>32885765
Congrats man, must feel pretty good! What will you do with the bad one from before?

Months ago I put the game down while hunting shiny gligar. Picked it up the other day to get the mega stone mystery gift and decided to hatch the 5 eggs that I had left on me. 3rd one was a shiny immunity moon ball gligar.

I'm sick of hatching fossils since it takes so long but I guess I'll go for Arnaldo regardless since it won't give me any headaches in terms of ability.
>>32885799
No prob
>>32885801
Yea it feels great. I don't know I'll keep it stored in the bank for now I guess who knows maybe in the future it will be fixable

>>32869435
Congrats on the sand slash anon. Is it ground or ice?

Excuse me

>>32885831
Congrats past me some of your luck

Can someone tell me how I'm suppose to do this?
DexNav is weird, haven't played since Platinum / HeartGold.
Chains don't matter anymore?

>>32886867
What game are you playing?

NEVER GIVE UP!

>>32886867
Chains don't matter, just number of encounters.

Shiny rate will top at 999 encounters, chain number irrelevant, except for the 50th and 100th encounters.

Another shiny in the same game where that shiny abra fled... And this time, it fled again after the first ball, it didn't even shake... Now I know the despair of hunting in this place.

>>32888667
Brutal, dude.

Another evolutionary line complete, as well as all the ORAS legends' shiny forms acquired. Now I can finally go on to hunting for shiny Chikorita in AS #2 and something else in the FS, or resume breeding for Patrat #2 or DexNav for Unown. Until next time, /shw/.

>>32888994
Congrats my friend. Where could i learn to dexnav?

>>32887431
Omega Ruby

So, OR here.
Just go to the route, repel, DexNav search for the pokemon I want and keep killing them until I find a shiny?

The move set from a distance looks like the bagon's that I just hatched about 5 minutes ago. I wasn't hunting for a shiny, was just trying to get an adamant sheer force Mence. About 1 box into my search I got a shiny on accident :D

>>32889907
That look so great! I'm into box 7 for this little guy and hope it shine soon!

Congrats!

>>32869844
I found a shiny hitmontop in Colosseum. It was pink and at the time I wasn't sure why. I caught it and went to the box to go check it out and it was back to is original colors. Always just thought the game was messed up.
