>tfw over 9,000 SR's.
How much longer boys..
>>24843847
>mfw put at least 300 hours on each gen since III and never got a shiny until I recently played crystal
>>24843847
You can do it!
>>24843847
But, there's no point to this at all, anymore. You just breed a shiny that has 5-6IV and egg moves and the right nature....
>>24843853
What? I got like five shinies within the first couple months of XY coming out.
>>24843862
That's because you're lucky.
>>24843862
>>24843866
Nah, XY made it extremely easy to end up with shinies.
>SR-ing starters from a decade old gen
>putting yourself through hell over something that doesn't even have a chance at getting HA
>>24843868
then why do I have 400 hours on Y, and never encountered a single shiny? I've done plenty of breeding etc, obviously
>>24843951
You haven't done chain fishing?
>>24843951
Either you're using repels when you go anywhere that you can find wild pokemon or you haven't tried
>chain fishing
>Masuda Method breeding
>friend safari
>dexnav
>shiny charm
>>24843847
i've been SR'ing for a shiny spiritomb in platnium for a few days
no luck yet ;-;
wishing you luck, OP
>>24843857
He's right OP. Why SR when you could get a penta perfect HA shiny with egg moves.
Breeding is easier than ever. You love the struggle bro, more power to you
>>24843962
I have over 300 hours in my Y have caught 5 shinies and bred . I have tried chaining and it never works for me.
>>24845592
*bred 2
just :^)
Before ORAS came out I was hatching Beldums for a shiny...
I was 3000 eggs in when they fucking announced the shiny Beldum giveaway. I haven't played Pokemon since because fuck everything.
>>24845622
that's it anon fight the power. Fucking GF and Nintendicks and their dickery I hate them too
JUST INJECT
JUST XDDDD
LE INJECT IT O.O
EBIN
>>24843847
I'm soft resetting Black at the moment. Just think it would be fun to go through a game with my shiny Smugleaf bro, already have a pentaperfect version on ORAS.
>>24843924
>DP is a decade old
>>24846395
If it's not Contrary HP fire your hunt isn't over
>>24843857
>>24843924
>>24844809
OP here, I breed for shiny pokemon with perfect IV stats often. I just like SR because of the challenge. Besides, I've never done it before. It's a breath of fresh air especially when waiting on the next game.
>NEVER EVER
>>24843855
>>24844683
Thanks anon's good luck with your hunts!
>>24843847
Just injekt it :^)
Isn't it easier to simply use the pokéradar, OP? Not for the starters, of course.
A-U-T-I-S-M
got a shiny whismur and was stoked because great IVs, wasnt even mming and its 1st stage shiny looks great
When its fully evolved its literally wow its fucking nothing
>not just injecting
Shinyslaves everyone.
I also agree that you should just inject it.
>>24843847
If you're going to inject why even bother playing on the console? Just fucking go to Pokemon Showdown at that point.>Injectionfags BTFO
>>24845622
same, 3700+ when i found out
1689 eggs.10 attack.
>>24843847
sent :^)
>>24850470
FEAR it
gonna go for a shiny scolipede myself
gotta few shiny tympole so yeah
>>24844055
>people always suggesting shiny charm
>people suggesting that you complete the ENTIRE pokedex, complete with all event pokemon
>>24844055
>breeding pawniards with matsuda method because can't chain or safari
>700 eggs in
>still no shiny
>>24850948
>tfw have all gen games with event mons
Shiny Charm was never easier.
Fuck getting Meloetta and Shiny Genesect though.
>>24848875
>the challenge
nothing to see here, autism apparent
move along
>>24850948
IIRC you don't need the special pokemon to get the shiny charm
>>24851080
You don't. None of the Pokemon that you can only get through distribution count towards completing the dex.
>grinding at Victory Road in HG just a few minutes ago
>find a shiny Donphan
Sure its nature and IVs aren't any good, but it's still pretty fucking cool.
Why not go semi legit if moralfag?
>Get AR to save backupping
>Emulate and play game at like x10 speed
>save when you get you're shiny
>send the save to your cart
>>24843847
At 9000 SRs, you have about 2 in 3 chance to see at least one G4 Shiny this way.though considering it's probably 9000*2, the chance was higher.
>Trying to find female hidden ability Mareep
>find a shiny beforehand
Goddamn it
>>24845622
>i am a retard so it's their fault
Good IV and nature Beldum with possible exclusive moves from old gens > shitty event Beldum
>>24843847
>SR'ing on DP and Platinum at the same time, when the former is 1m40 long and the latter is 1m05
>being this poor guy who can't buy two of the same versionI know that feel. I'm soft reseting for Piplup on Platinum only, despite the fact that I have Pearl and Diamond cart, I can't double hunt something with a time gap that huge. I'm at ~7500 SR's for Pilup. Good luck bro
>>24846395
>>24848504
The hunt continues. Probably about 1000 deep now.
>>24852336
>tfw trying to get Dream Ball 5IV female
>Get Shiny first
It doesn't even have its Hidden Ability and its HP is shit
>>24852873
Quick Ball is clearly preferred for choice Ampharos bro
I was playing a nuzlocke on a Ruby rom and encountered both a shiny Swablu and a shiny Whismur. How do I get these beauties from the rom to a real cartridge? Thanks!
I've been bitching last couple of threads about breeding for HA shinies. Went through 2 Snivy before it came out with Contrary, last week it was 4 Treeko until Unburden.
My current hell is a Cleffa with Friend Guard. 4 shinies in, 2 of which hatched within 30 minutes of each other, and still not the right ability. One of them even has all 6 perfect IVs, it irks me. I need to take a screencap from the movie Tombstone to use in these threads, the one with Doc Holliday on his deathbed weakly saying "I don't want to play anymore". Fits my mood perfectly.God help me I'm actually thinking of soft resetting for a shiny Mewtwo in my SS version. Going to hoard up some apricorn balls and then kiss my sanity goodbye.
>have two weeks off from work
>have the itch to MM
>no idea what mon I want to go for
>preferably something with a mega
Y'all have any suggestion? Already have an Altaria and a Swampert.
>mfw KeySav and egg deletion code
truly the masterrace of shiny breeding
>>24858102
Slowbro or bust
>>24858457
Aye aye captain, time to get them 5 IV females.
how's everyone's shinydex coming?
