Congrats on your shiny conquest, anon. How many SRs?

>>32924686

I don't know, I'm not one to count them.
I'll leave it to your judgement though, it was around 5 months and 10 days worth of SRs.

>>32923437
Not any more.
I´ve caught so many shinys in older games and have resetted shiny Eevee and shiny Lapras in Leaf green.

Maybe, if I´m going to restart one of B/W/B2/W2 I would try it in an older gen, but at the moment just in gen 6 and 7.

Anyone got any tips for Chaining on Pearl? I seem to suck at it. Any good areas in particular? Any general tips?

Male shiny pentaperfect Furfrou. Minus SpAtk. Feels good. Named him "Prince" might change it though.

more than 200 eggs in, still no yellow croc.

was this a mistake? only time will tell.

Is there any way to get a Leaf Stone in Silver before you get to Kanto?

I don't wanna have to wait until I'm already done with the Elite Four to use my shiny Vileplume

>>32923432
I hunt on Pearl and Moon

I'm spending more time trading for breeding rejects than actually hatching eggs. This gen is fucked up.

What are you guys doing while hunting? Any reqs on something to watch?

250 eggs, still no sparkles.

Things are going less than ideally.

Took a break to play some Dynasty Warriors 5.
Whenever you guys are SOS chaining, do you continue the hunt after 255 or reset your game? Currently on the 2nd chain now for Hakamo-o and I just got up to 70.

>>32927716
I continue to hunt

>>32927841
How long have you gone until you got your shiny?

So, who wants a shiny Frogadier?

>>32922419
I have a shiny Ribombee with hidden power ice.
Oh well, I still love it.

>>32928265
Will I be greedy if I say yes please?
I'm having so much fun with Floette!

>What are you hunting?
Prolly gonna go for A-Grimer next. If it ends up being female, I'll swap into Togepi and hope the gender roll still sticks as Female, finally
>How?
MM + Magikarping
>Favorite gen 7 mon?
Vikavolt, prolly. Or Mimikyu
>Last shiny?
Chatot

>>32928289
I'm not sure if you saw my update yesterday but she's now got several medals, I'm just trying to get her the battle maison one, then she's being moved up to Omega Ruby to get all the medals there.

If it's cool I'd love to do the same with Frog-boy there.

>>32928289
>>32928301
Got'cha f.am. What ball? Also, the thread died before I could see everything due to the spam so I missed it for sure.

>>32928324
Any ball you want my dude, I don't mind. I just appreciate you being so kind!

Ah that sucks, well, I just worked on getting her all the training medals, and the friendship ones. She's beaten the elite four as well. I'll snap a pic later! I'm going to do the same with this dude.

If I can be really cheeky, would you mind calling him Largo? It's what my original froakie was called back in 2013.

>>32928345
Caught him in a Luxury Ball.
>Torrent and Lonely
I'm so sorry, but I'm sure you'll take care of him better than I will (he'd just end up in Bank until I decided to renew). Lemme know when you're ready.

>>32928380
Lovely, thank you.
Honestly I'm not much for competitive anyway, I just like collecting ribbons and having adventures with them! I'll be sure to take good care of him, I'll find a moveset that works.

Ready now! Just shoot me a trade when you're ready, you're Psy right?

Thank you again by the way. I've got terrible luck hunting for my own shinies, so this means a lot to me. I love these guys!

>>32928398
Yep. Getting on now. I do have a Pastebin of some of the various dupes I have so if you want any, lemme know. Now I just have to remember my password...

>>32928398
There we go.
https://pastebin.com/GR73S1kP

>>32928418
Thank you so much again. It's near 3am and I have work tomorrow, so no ribbon hunting for this little dude just yet, but tomorrow I'll start making him a champion.

Oh wow! That would be very kind of you, maybe throw a link to the pastebin at me if you remember your password and I'll have a look tomorrow. I don't want to be greedy, and I want to keep my team small! I plan to use these guys all the way up to Sun/Moon so they can have a full and ribbon filled adventure.

Anyway, it's late, thanks again and g'night for now, dude!

>>32928434
Again, I gotta sleep, but if you don't mind tomorrow I'd be super interested in a Clauncher and Dedenne. I think they'd be good on my team! I'll hit you up for them later if that's okay.

it doesn't specify whether to take both of them out or not, though
>take a parent out to halt egg spawning
>hatch eggs
>if no shiny, go back to step 1
>step 2 is to place BOTH parents in

>>32929700
>>32929902
Just Magikarp. Ditto never moves

Unless you're resetting the chain
