Shiny Hunts you've done that have either been sucsessful or that you've given up on. Im shiny hoarde hunting on Route 14. It's taken the better part of a day to to and im still on it.
>>
Finally got the Shiny Charm in Alpha Sapphire and I'm going to try hunt shiny Legendaries. The problem is I need a perfect for catching them. I'm trying to get a high level Smeargle with Spore, False Swipe, Belly Drum and Soak.
>>
>>25570392
I don't know why you need a smeargle with those moves to catch legendaries but i can think of a few alternatives to help catch legendaries.
A Bibarel with Yawn, Amnesia and Super Fang will help a lot.

Or a Uxie with those first two moves will help.
As for false swipe I say get a Sizor with Technician and give it False Swipe
>>
>>25570205 the most recent one has been a swablu doing hordes in like 10 minutes and a shiny tepig in 40 eggs. The luck was true
>>
>>25570392
I used the Pokemon Bank Celebi as my catcher.
Recover
Hold Back
Thunder Wave
Double Team
All Evs into Def and SP Def
I just deal some heavy damage via other monsters and get the remainder with this and spam Pokeballs.

I'm just breeding my 6IV Lunatone and Solrock with my "totaly legit" 6IV Jap Ditto and hoping for the best. Also hoping that they get something in Sun/Moon.
>>
>>25570205
Tried doing the Mesuda method to get a Ralts, but gave up after 8 or so batches.

Also did chain fishing but got bored after a few hours.
>>
>>25570205

I actually hatched a shiny Flabebe yesterday while breeding for a competitive Florges. It was pentaperfect too though the attack iv is fairly high but I can live with that. The last hunt I did was for a shiny Pumpkaboo, it took 14 boxes but love my shiny Gourgeist.
>>
>>25571077
wouldnt EVs would be better distributed with 252 into HP and the rest split? (also nice assortment of weaknesses)
>>
>>25571154
Probably, I just threw it together and dumped Rare Candies onto it because I got a shit Nature and IVs. It's level 100 so it survives legendaies pretty easily. And Deoxys/Rayquaza/Mewtwo are pretty tame on catch rate.
>>
>>25571092
I've tried countless times trying to hatch shiny Klefki, Froakie, and a bunch of others. After im done with my current hunt I'm gonna try and hatch shiny Fennikin. I can never do chain fishing. After 10 minutes or so I start questioning weather it's working or not and it's just a mental thing for me. Weird Huh.
>>
My trick room team is 2 away from being full MM'd now, working on snover, then dragalge. Dragalge has HP ground though so it makes me incredibly nervous

Woops, forgot pic. Got this Thursday, 4 IV but the missing IV is speed, so not 0 but it's not a huge deal
>>
>>25571632
Why didn't you just inject it if you used a hacked ditto to make it? You're making needless work for yourself.
>>
>>25571669
Because shiny hunting is fun

>>25571092
Don't give up buddy, it took me 420 eggs to get one without the Shiny Charm. It's just a matter of patience.
>>
Recently got the shiny charm so I'm trying to sr for Raikou, anyone here soft reseted for a shiny legend in oras? How long did it take?
>>
>>25571922
As of this morning im SRing for shiny reshiram. ive heard it can take upwards of a week.
>>
I'd rather not create a whole new thread for this, but would anyone happen to have an HA Treecko breedject they could give me? I have tons of breedjects of my own to share, so just ask if you're interested.
>>
Best Ball for catching shiny terrakion? im Thinking in luxury ball
>>
>>25573249
I'm very plain when it comes to catching things. I catch everything in Pokeballs but shinys, where I get them in Premier Balls. Cherish Balls are more common than Great/Ultra/Dusk/Luxury/Timer in my collection.
>>
are there any recorded and verified cases of someone with an entire dex of shinys, done without hacks?
>>
I have played every single version of every single Pokemon game ever released and I have never run into a wild shiny besides the Red Gyarados
>>
>>25570965
I use Funbro but with Yawn instead of Block to catch my legendaries. That way I can use as many balls as necessary to catch them without ever worrying about them struggling to their death.
>>
>>25573362

Just start using dexnav in ORAS, I've managed to get shinies in under 40 encounters

Going to try for a shiny flabebe and furfrou.
How much time did it take for you guys to get one of these?
>>
>>25573643
Via breeding?
>>
Taking injection requests :3
>>
>>25573878
How would you go about that?
>>
>>25573878
Can you make a sniper spearow?
>>
>>25573878
I'd love an Adamant Heracross with Knock Off
>>
>>25570392
I've been on the same hunt for a while now. You don't need a "perfect", just a team of Pokemon that can get the job done. My team is made up of Pokemon I used during playthroughs. An Aegislash for False Swipe, a Slaking for Yawn, and a level 100 for nest balls/tanking damage
>>
Hey, what happened to /shw/?

I disappeared from /vp/ for a bit and when I came back it seemed to be gone as well as the Cytube stream that we made.
>>
>>25573878
Good Guy Shiny Dick :^)

My first successful full-odds hunt. Somehow I managed to keep this hunt going for a couple days without giving up. So worth it!

I want to start hunting for shiny starters in Pokemon Heartgold, but I have no idea where my 3DS went so...

Also, the Heartgold game I got came with a shiny Butterfree on it so I can't just restart it...

Is the shiny charm worth all the time it would take to trade everything over into one game?
The thing holding me back is all my pokemon are split among 5+ games and that I'll have to do it for every single game afterward.

>>25575220
Was it good?
>>
>>25575284
As in IVs? I have no idea. Im not too concerned with that.
>>
>>25574714
Do you want to get into collecting shinies heavly? Otherwise no. Mesuda Method alone works well enough for plenty of others.
>>
>>25570205
I decided to restart Y with a shiny. I'm on day 5 of SRing for a shiny Fennekin starter.

I'm starting to waver a bit and to my shame even thought about asking for injector help.

I just want a shiny Fennekin so bad
>>
>>25575848
And then I see this >>25573878

Fuck
>>
>>25573878
How would you go about that? Can you go into further detail?
>>
>>25575922
Are you asking how to do injections?
>>
>>25573152
If legitimacy is irrelevant to you, I can hook you up.
>>
>>25575999
Actually, I'm good.
>>
>>25575989
Well i've never heard of this before so I was wondering how it's done. And if I were to request one how that would go down. Im completely clueless so I was just asking.
>>
>>25576303
I second this.

I mainly want to know if injected Pokemon can be sent to Pokemon Bank
>>
>>25570392
I have a Gallade with False Swipe and Hypnosis that I use, and it works pretty well. Ironically enough, said Gallade is shiny, from breeding. No Shiny Charm or Masuda Method, just pure luck. Feels good man.

On the thread topic, last week I got a shiny Shuppet while horde training my Machop completely by accident haha. It was a nice surprise. And my brother caught 4 shiny Feebas trying to get a female one (3 shiny males in a row, not in the same chain though.) But he was fishing. After the game mechanics got switched up on us for shiny fishing, I really don't even count water type shinies anymore if I know you can fish for them.
>>
Shinies will just get easier to obtain in S&M, just wait until then.
>>
>>25577249
I fuckin hope so. Maybe 1/2051 chance?
>>
Just got shiny Foongas after an hour or so. Was hoping for treevant but Im fine with Foongas. I also caught a Mime Jr a few months back using the same method.
