It's that time of the week again, when we search for palate swapped monsters like a junkie for his roommate's stash.

I'm (very roughly) in the 3.5k range with one catch with shItty stats and nature, so I reset that one.
This weekend has been too kind to me...Dexnav number 5!
>>26509656
What if this one also ends up the same?
>>26509659
One of the absolute best shinies of all time. Congrats!
>>26509691
Then i break out the noose. Kidding, last time I thought my Gallade had synchronize, and I got 0 def and att IVs.it can't possibly be worse than last time.
If anyone wants a 5IV Slakoth with Pursuit, Night Slash, Body Slam and Curse in a luxury ball i have some

How many hours of my life have I wasted resetting this fucking piece of shit goddamn legendary? Just so I can get shones and feel good about myself. It's a fucking joke.
That's the only reason people shiny hunt, really - so they can like get a short high. No one who shiny hunts is a fuckin' pokemon master. Y'know, beating the league and doing actually important things in game. Everyone who shiny hunts is an autist, and getting shones is the only way they can feel good about themselves. And like how many fuckin' hours of my life have I wasted doing that bullshit? It's so stupid. It's fucking shit. All I fuckin' do is waste my time away trying to get 5iv shones for a temporary goddamn high which will last, fuckin...y'know, an hour. Until it goes away, and /shw/ exposes me for the shiny hunting SHITTER I am. Fucking hell dude. It's a complete joke.
Shiny hunting is the most autistic act man has ever come up with. Well, it's fucking true. It's fucking true. The only reason we shiny hunt is 'cause we have nothing else to do. So we fuckin' shiny hunt, 'cause it gives us this temporary feeling of like "THERE IT IS, I did it, I'm the luckiest in the world at this thing...that like nobody with any sense does." That's all it is. Really. We're all fuckups.
We masquerade around /vp/ like "haha, we're so cool running around the Friend Safari getting shones, aren't we fuckin' special!" Nah, we're just a fuckin pile of goddamn idiots. That's all we are. It's ridiculous. People thinking shiny hunting is fun is the biggest goddamn meme on the board. I'm telling the truth, let's be real. Everyone knows it. People are just too afraid to say it.
It's the absolute truth. It really is. And we can pretend "we're big shots on /vp/, we make kids happy with our 0iv shinies, we have fun" ...At the end of the day it's the truth. You know. I just exposed all of shiny hunting. It's a thing we do to waste time to feel good about the game. That's it.

I can't. My 3ds is my only camera that i can get pics off of onto the computer. The only way i'd be able to show it is in a trade.
>>26510463
I just like some colors of Pokemon and have too much free time. Hasn't really taken me all that long to get the ones I wanted either.
>>26510719
It's a self hating post.20 mins after i posted that edited copypasta i got it
>>26510730
Congratz dude. But even if it is a pasta, I could still see some people feeling like that. It's important to take a break and do other things every once in awhile so you don't go mad.
>>26510764
I was SRing while playing other things, and i was getting so sick of being in that cave, and i just wanted to hunt something else.
Now that i'm out i can try out dexnav. How's this work? How come most of the time i get "It couldn't be found!"

Found this while EV training shiny yveltal a few days ago. Running out of shinies I want.
Which ones look good but aren't super common?

>>26512571
Shiny Frosslass
Shiny Gallade

>>26510206
Certain Pokemon just can't be traded over the GTS. I know the sacred ball and some ribbons prevent it, but I don't know if they're actually just blocked species wide too (which makes being able to ask for them even stupider).
There's no restrictions on person to person trades, though, even online. As long as you're directly trading with them, everything goes through.
>>26509397

Y-Yeah
On a fucked sleep schedule, but I'm up now. How's everyone doing?
>>26513070
Disappointed I don't have a fifth male Combee yet.
>>26513070
i got the registeel but i dont know what to hunt now or how dexnav works.
So /shw/, preferred shiny hunt method? I like the Friend Safari, low effort, good odds, don't need too much focus on what you're doing.
Trying to get a 4th shiny eevee. Got 3 in 3 days, 2 pentapetfect future umbreons (one for me, one for my gf),then got another shiny future Espeon, but it lacked IVs in sp. Attack, so I decided to breed one more.
That was a month ago.
>>26509397
>What are you hunting for?
Masuda/Pn breeding for a shiny female Lapras as gift for my girlfriend. She loves lapras
>How are you doing it?
riding round round at battle resort, masuda method and shiny charm of course
>What have you gotten recently?
shiny xatu via WT. My gf got a shiny lapras called "KeepBreeding" via WT, you can imagine herself loosing it.
Oh, and a shiny Yveltal in a dreamball named "f*ck you" that i put into GTS and got a shaymin for.
>Do you have the Shiny Charm?
sure, do i look like a fking casual?
>>26513303
Oh, and while I've only ever found 2 Random shinies (drillbur and roselia) i managed to find 2 in 5 minutes while playing a randomized platinum rom the other day. A Roserade and a spheal.
>>26513303
ah, another volcarona user :) always happy too see someone else usng this fluffy guy.
>>26513325
Hell yeah, I love fluffy pokémon
Does someone have the delays for RNG Emerald?
decided that today i'm going to go for krabby.
should i dexnav him where he moves about a lot or shall i just breed one while not even paying attention /vp/?
>>26513303
Fucking fuck yes
900 eggs into MMing for Vulpix. Is there an end to this Hell?
>>26513456
Pentapetfect, but lacked HA.
Guess I'll use the other one, with 4 IVS (lacking hp, not special attack, and actually has ha)
>>26513496
Just got done with box 34 (that's 1020 eggs) with Charmander. By far the longest MM I've done since Gen IV when there was no Shiny Charm.
>>26513496
No, because you know that when you get it you'll just move onto the next pokemon
Short story I think you guys will enjoy from earlier in the week.

>>26513526
I hate how right you are. Gonna try for male Nidoran with HA next, which will be infinitely more frustrating, I'm sure.
For the Combee people, would you be willing to trade any of your reject males??
>>26512571
>heracross
>weavile
>Quagsire
>Murkrow
>>26513496
End? The hatching does not end. Masuda method is just another path, one we must all take. The bike wheels in this world roll on, and boxes fill with pokémon. And then you see it. White Ninetales. And beyond, a green Flygon under a swift sunrise.
>>26513580
Yeah, but probably not until getting a shiny queen bee.
>>26513580
Or did you mean any male for breeding bugs with?
>>26513496
Just unlucky man. I grabbed mine in the first 50, but don't feel bad because everything since then has taken extremely long. Mine did come out 4IV with HA though which was exciting. Keep it up pham
>>26513647
>naughty
Literally why.
>>26513647
Yeah, why's it naughty?is it a fetish thing?
>>26513651
Because...Devilish
>>26510463
Dunno man, semester starts in 5 months, so I have a bit of free time to do autistic things I like
>What are you hunting for?
Any shiny Pokemon in Petalburg woods for my Gen3 Sapphire badge quest
>How are you doing it?

>What have you gotten recently?
I haven't shiny hunted since 2014, got a shiny friend safari Masquerain (sp)
>Do you have the Shiny Charm?
we /gen3/
>>26513651
>>26513660
The same reason it was in a dive ball, ya boy was an inexperienced breeder. Natures were like literally the last thing I learned about, plus the shiny came way too early in the process. I should scratch that out when posting that pic lmao

>What are you hunting for?

Yes
>>26513681
That'll probably be a while then. I can hold onto one for you if you want though.
>>26513677
Funny, natures was the first thing I figured out. >>26513681
>>26513561
>Hours later
>No Bold Ralts with Synchronize
It's always that last fucking one. I remember the hell of trying to get a Syncho Ralts for every nature that actually does something. Once you get down to the last few, 1/25 chance starts becoming hell.
Did you check around your boxes to see if there was Bold anything that could breed the nature down? Though I suppose you ended up getting a Shiny out of the endeavor.
>>26513700
Didn't mean to reply to that second post.
>>26513647
I'm hoping my suffering will have pleased the RNG Gods enough that my next shiny won't take as long.
The worst part isI already have a shiny Ninetales, I just want a Vulpix as well.
>>26510463
you are right,i definely don't want to waste my time by catching different colored pokemon,only autistic people would lose time doing such a thing,instead,i can use my time to get a job and get money
>>26513704
>Did you check around your boxes to see if there was Bold anything that could breed the nature down? Though I suppose you ended up getting a Shiny out of the endeavor.
Yeah, bold, Amorphous Egg group, right?
Regardless, I got the bold, syncho ralts afterwards, but jeeze, I always ran into shinies in the wild by sheer accident, not while looking for something that is statistically much more common.
>>26513761
Knowing what I do now, I probably would've searched around for a bit to see if there was any short chain through the egg groups that would do it. Hunting down one specific nature is fucking chore and the way Everstone works now makes it much quicker to just breed it to the right mon if necessary, even if it takes a few steps of a chain.
As for random shinies, Horde training has resulted in a number of shinies too. Spinda, two Murkrows, and so on. Same while farming items in Friend Safaris. Not quite the same, but it's been interesting to notice the overall boosted shiny rates nowadays, especially with all the bonuses that stack up. Haven't used the dex nav enough to get anything from there yet, but I'll probably try it out after I finish my current MM hunt. Think I started to run into them in the wild in BW2 after the charm as well. Before that, I'd never run into one naturally since Gen II.
>>26513761
Why wouldn't you just breed for the bold syncho Ralts?
>What are you hunting for?
i was hunting for a shiny cobalion,but then i got tired of keeping soft resetting and i just gave up
>How are you doing it?
soft resetting
>What have you gotten recently?
a shiny terrakion,the only shiny i managed to get
>Do you have the Shiny Charm?
no
>What's your excuse?
too hard to catch'em all
>>26513798
I believe anon is saying that yes, they knew what would be needed to breed a Bold Ralts (that is, a Bold pokemon in the Amorphous group or, they don't mention, a Bold Ditto). Since the question was asking if they checked that first and they're saying they knew what they would've needed, the implication is that they didn't have any Bold Amorphous mons lying around.
I have a shitton of random mons lying around these days. I probably would searched more to see if there were any bold ones I could some how chain the nature down to, rather than rolling the dice a bunch of times and praying. But at least anon got a shiny out of it.
What's the best way to shiny hunt in xy? Just hordes and breeding?
>>26513854
or the pokeradar if you´re good at it.

>>26513864
>implying I wouldn't prefer him
>>26513862
Oh nice, I didn't know about that. Thanks!
>>26513815
What I meant was, get a syncho, breed Random raltses till you get a bold, breed a bold syncho. Would take way less time
>>26513918
not necessarily, in the time it takes to hatch 5 eggs, anon can easily catch 10 ralts with preconfirmed synchronize using dexnav, while just killing anything that was telepathy/trace
>>26513918
Oh, right.
Yeah, that's what I did when I was getting my Synchro's set up. I think I agree with >>26513928 though. Technically, dex nav should make it quicker because you can spawn a new Ralts right away. Whereas with with breeding there's always a bit of a delay between hatchings, even if you're doing it the most efficient way possible. I got all my Synchro's set up back in XY though, so it wasn't really possible then.
>>26509397
this trip thing is goddamned bugged
>>26513697
Yes please. That's be great. Anything you want for it?
>>26513988Memes:^)
>>26513084
The struggle. I'm thinking of joining the combee hunt after this giratina. I hate hatching eggs though so I might SR something that doesn't have the fucking eon flute animation.
>>26513089
>dexnav
I don't know how that shit works either, but I feel like if you get the hang of it it's an easy or at least reliable way to get a shiny. I'm intrigued. Is there any good guides anyone knows of or used personally to get into dexnaving?

I've been hunting for Aron using MM since February. It's the longest hunt by far and I'm around 2500 eggs. I still haven't lost hope..
I just got into chain fishing yesterday and I caught relicanth, alomomola, poliwhirl, whiscash, corsola, and gyarados already, with a basculin killing itself. It's too fun.

>>26514816
Yeah, we got this! Unlucky anons, it's only a matter of time before our luck changes!
Oh man first time I stop by in months and you guys are still using that image. Just finally picked up alpha sapphireI'm a massive poor faggonna try get me some new eevees.
Just yesterday, I hatched over 50 eggs for a Shiny perfect Froakie. I failed. I did happen to hatch a 5iv pentaperfect one with its HA. Anyone got an idea for a Shiny using MM? Im running out of ideas!

Hello dexnav shiny number 6
>>26515465
On average how long does it take you to get a dexnav shiny? I haven't tried it before but i'd like to
>>26515475
30 minutes to an hour+ usually. Sandile took about 2 on and off.
>>26515465
Goddamn, do you have the charm? Is it that easy? I'm about 200 off beating the OR dex and it's all stuff I can breed and evolve from X so I'm contemplating if it's worth it.
>>26515489
Yep
Yep. Nice change of pace from biking around the battle resort for days.
Not sure if the shiny charm affects dexnav but I pretend it does with the luck i've been having.
>>26515489
do a living dex. gather every pokemon in your boxes (24 boxes intotal, with vocalnio being in 25) its fun, and you´ll have all of them thanks to pokeBank in -Sun/Moon
>>26515532
I really wish I did when getting the charm on X. It won't be too much trouble outside of a few legendary Pokemon, just a bit time consuming.
>>26515588
the 14 event pokemon dont count for the shiny charm. so you need only the 706/707 pokemon you can obtain regularily.
and you got a few months until sun/moon
all i can do is hunt for shinys, wait for keldeo/genesect/victini/arceus download and play something else until sun/moon
>>26515616
I have all the events, just exclusives like Yveltal and stuff. I can probably touch trade them with friends so it's no issue.Not doing a damn thing until I hatch this Goddamn shiny Zangoose though.
>tfw Flash Fire
Still, I finally did it, /vp/. Entirely too many eggs. Pentaperfect in everything but Attack. Keep trying, unlucky bros.
And onto the next one, because the ride never ends.
>>26515869
Don't worry gen 7 will introduce the hidden ability capsule for 600 bp
>>26515875
I wish, I've got a few shinies that suffer from a lack of Hidden Ability.
That price, tho.
>>26513988
Sorry, anon. I had to sleep.
Anything would be fine although I'd like a female HA dream ball Dwebble if you happen to have that.
>>26509397
After getting a shiny Squirtle on accident Friday. I have renewed hope that I will hatch my shiny koffing sometime today.
>>26516129
Hey mate could I have one of those breedjects? I'm thinking about jumping on the female combee ride with you
>>26516247
Sure, but wouldn't a perfect female be better for working with?
>>26516320
If you have one of course! Thanks heaps
>>26516339
Do you want the regular ability or hidden ability?
>>26516354
I don't battle too much I haven't really even looked into it. What do you recommend? Honestly i'll take whatever you reckon
>>26516379
I wouldn't say either is particularly useful at the moment given Vespiquen's problems. I'll send a HA one so either option is open.
>>26516444
Thanks heaps for this man, Don't know what i'm going myself into
>>26516515
A high chance of looking for something to read or watch. Good luck!
>>26510463
Post the speedrunner video too while you're at it.
>>26513561
Not lying I've gotten 2 shiny ralts the same way
So now there's potentially three people MM'ing for a shiny Combee? Aw snap I gotta get back to work hatching mine!
>>26516129
Anon here. I can try to g et the dwebble if you want, may take some time
>>26509397
Every legendary in AS
Re-beating alpha, transferring over my living dex for shiny charm, then SR because legends.
I will.
In between I'm still hatching shiny mudkip and dexnaving for randoms
Weooo! Just hatched a shiny Combee. Too bad it's a male! ;)
>>26517331
Watcha gonna do with it???
>>26516901
That'd be great!
It'd be very helpful for what I want to do after Combee.
>>26517388
I intend on keeping it as a reminder of how long it's going to take to get a female. I'm expecting to get like three more males before I finally land a shiny female.
>>26517331
I specialize in Pokemon sex changes if you're interested?
>>26517629
kill yourself
>>26516515
And it has begun.
Feels good that there are a few anons going for it too
>>26517637

>>26517667
I'd rather take my chances in a friend safari with cute charm
>>26517693
Then do it.
>>26517693
Cute Charm?
>>26517741
>From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with Cute Charm is first in the party, even if it has fainted, the chance of encountering a Pokémon of the opposite gender is 66.7%, regardless of gender ratios.
>>26517760
Thanks senpai.
>>26517769
Assuming you'd just want the shiny vespiquen as a trophy, this is the way to go. No doubt it's faster than biking and hatching 534 boxes.fucker didn't even wait for Bank so he had no shiny charm
>>26517693
>>26517792
I know it's autistic but as far as shiny hunting goes, I feel like breeding a shiny vespiqueen is the ultimate trophy.
>>26517819
that's a level of autism even i wouldn't approach, but you can do it.
I would probably give that a go, but none of my friends have a Bug safari with Combee in it.
Has anyone got a shiny Mawile? Trying to hatch one on my sapphire
>>26515875
I'd be fine with that price since I have a bunch of unused points from Pokebank.
>>26515938
>>26518288
Literally any price, even double that, is infinitely better than the current situation. A stupidly high price can eventually be reached, and at a certainty too. Right now, it's basically a dice roll. Even when not being ridiculous and shooting for a shiny HA, it can be a chore to get everything else set up, and still have to hatch a bunch of eggs to get one where the HA lines up with everything else.
Gentlemen.... behold! SUCCESS!
Gunnin' for Eevee next.
What do I name my Registeel and Latios? Both are shiny, of course.
>>26518425

I absolutely agree with you, but that's not going to stop me from whining. The last two shinies I spent ages breeding were born without their HA, I'd happily empty my savings over wasting another week of my time breeding for what isn't even a guaranteed HA shiny.
Any (read: most) Pokemon with a total of three abilities are a nightmare to breed for.
>>26518425
Nice, are you going to groom it?
>>26518454
Kabuki all day. I took on a drawfriend request involving one and realized just how much I like furfrou, so I went for it.
Getting her only took 12-13 eggs.I full understand I REALLY lucked out.
>>26518539
Good on you, excellent taste to go with an excellent shiny.

>get a porygon in return

Currently trying to chain-fish for my first shiny on ORAS... I've been doing this for about half an hour... It's a bit painful, but whatever...
Just to be 300% sure I'm not doing it wrong, you can run away from a fishing encounter and still have it count towards your chain, right?
>>26518652
>can you run?
yes
>>26518582
>tfw there are actually based trainers out there
>>26518671
Thanks, m80
Hunting for a shiny dunsparce in the friend safari. Here's to hoping that I don't get a shiny Chancey or Loudred instead.
>>26518894
Why not all three?
about how long does the average shiny hunt in a friend safari take? not looking for 15 minute or 8 hour outliers.
CHECK OUT MY SHINY LUGIA
CAUGHT IT ONLY A COUPLE MINUTES AGO
date is blacked out because I've messed with the time and date on my DS
>>26518425
Change it to Noire, it's the feminine version of noir and yours is female
>What are you hunting for?
Everything
>How are you doing it?
Hacking them in
What have you gotten recently?
About 100 so far
>Do you have the Shiny Charm?
Like 50
>>26519009
Show us the date anyway, it can't be that bad
>>26519009
Nice
>>26509397
Side question: I don't necessarily want a shiny Palkia, and while hunting I came across this normal one
HP: 21 IV
Attack: 25 IV
Defense: 31 IV
Sp. Attack: 31 IV
Sp. Defense: 29 IV
Speed: 31 IV
Sounds good, but it's Naive. Still keep it?
>>26519037
oh its just September 19th, 2016
no big deal- I've just messed with my DS alot
>>26519059

I'm struggling to get parents good enough to start hunting a Shiny Snivy with Hidden Power Fire...
>>26519073
I could give you a 31/30/31/30/31/30 japanese male if you'd like.
>>26519002
Usually about an hour and a half for me, sometimes less than that.
>>26519061
>here's your stupid date
okay, so it was September 17th
(not the 19th)
but who the fuck cares; its legit and I'm holding the DS in my hand right now
>>26519116
that's about what i expected. thanks. only done chain fishing so far but i've been successful so i'm looking to branch out.
>>26519099
I would love! Is there anything you want? Here is my Friend Code: 1118-0483-5926
>>26519137
Man, you sure are defensive.
>>26519152
well you are demanding
so I guess we're even
>>26519137
Not them, but you can't blame them for being spectical. The emphasis on "A COUPLE OF MINUTES AGO" paried with the blacked out date is due to cause suspicion. For all we knew, you were lying about when you caught it and could have caught it like 3 years ago or some shit.
>>26519159
I'm not even that guy, just had to point it out.
>>26519151
Anything you don't need is fine. Can you put something on GTS for it instead? My friends list is full.
>>26519169
>>26519170
Yeah I know... but that's the reason I didn't want to show the date in the first place 'cause I'm sure that someone would have tried to say that it wasn't legit because my DS is a few months ahead
I'm sorry for being so rude...
>>26519196
You should be sorry.
>>26519172
I'll put a level 1 Male Espurr on GTS then!
>>26519204
...and now I'm not sorry
>>26519216
>waaah people aren't praising my forgery
>>26519172
It has /VP/ in the description.
>>26519208
Sent!
>>26519231
ITS NOT FORGED HOLY SHITE
>but I guess I have no way to prove it since I've given you all the proof that I can give
>shouldn't have expected anything less from the shitstain of the internet
>>26519237
Thank you!!!!!!
>>26519247
>this mad about 4chan
How old are you
>>26519247
It so is forged.
Also, you have no idea what greentexting is for, do you?
Why are you even here if you hate 4chan so much?
Good hack, faggot.
>>26519252
22
but I honestly don't see what's the big deal; I caught a shiny Lugia and was proud of myself
I thought I'd show it off; I didn't expect to be treated like I was lying
>>26519266
Because you are lying, that's why
Talk shit get hit
>>26519261
Believe what you want
I have no more to say
>>26519266
You shouldn't have acted like you were lying and gotten so defensive when asked why you were being a shady little cunt.
Enjoy your hack, though.
>>26519278
Hey, I don't need to believe anything when you've proven that it's hacked.
how does dexnav hunting work and how come i can never get a straight answer?
>>26519250
No problem! Good luck!
>>26519302

>>26519322
this doesnt tell me how to not get "it couldn't be found!" 95% of the time
>>26519302
It's a straight increase to shiny odd shown here >>26519322
You don't have to keep a chain going, but fainting the wild Pokemon helps you get one to show up on the next search.
Caves and water suck for it, though.
>>26519337
I can only really get it by spamming Search while running around.
>>26519362
I don't get what you're asking for then.
Defeat the Pokemon for a better chance at having another one show up, that's all I got.
>>26519373
I've just gotten a lot of conflicting information about it. One side says you have to chain, the other just says it's a flat increase. Should I be using Repels? I'm just running around some mirage island for Larvesta
>>26519390
I would suggest using repels so as to avoid wild encounters.
If nothing keeps showing up, either run around for one to pop up of its own accord or run into a wild.
You don't HAVE to chain, but it helps.
>>26519411
>You don't HAVE to chain, but it helps
Alright, thanks. At least knowing that is good. Caves suck but i usually stick to grass.
>>26519390
I use repels and you just need to use it. Chaining only effects HA's IV's Items and egg moves. Even if the dexnav says it can't be found as long as you wait and don't get into another battle the chain will continue.
>>26519427
>Chaining only effects HA's IV's Items and egg moves.
I thought search level affected that?
>>26519445
Both, if the bulbapedia article is to believed. Search level increases the chances for them at each of the chained levels, which also increases the chances. Getting both higher gives the best results.
I'm not currently hunting for shinies since I'm enjoying the fuck out of Alpha Sapphire after getting back into it.
>BUT
I bumped into a shiny Duskull the moment I walked into Mt Pyre.
They muted the red so now it looks like a tired Angry Bird.
>>26519472
Oh thanks for the idea, I should grab a shiny Chimecho sometime
Late for the party but hunting for my shiny mascot mon.
>What are you hunting for?
Ledyba
>How are you doing it?
Random encounter. No matter how I breed it, it will never be usable, so.
>What have you gotten recently?
Nothing, first time playing in months.
>Do you have the Shiny Charm? What's your excuse?
Yes, but I don't truly believe it helps much.
>>26519030
Thanks, Anon. Had a feeling it didn't fit well, but, stranger to French here.
>>26513070I thought making this thread would improve your odds but it's making you suffer more
I just ran into this while grinding - the first random encounter shiny I've had in ten years. It's got Calm nature, which is a bit disappointing, but it's IVs are pretty good. I think I'll keep the little pineapple looking fucker.
>>26519748
Lucky, you got one of the best shinies.
Clair got one near the end of the Black and White anime.
>>26519748
nice anon. random shinies are the best, i like them more than grinded ones, regardless of the mon.
>>26519793
I feel you.
Random shinies are like special Pokemon that really wanted to be your friend, so they jumped out to battle you.
>>26519748
>dat nickname
>>26519611
I'd say I'm not but I just remember that from being forced to do it for a year in high schooland from the FE13 character
>>26519814
>setting Roselia on fire for EVs in Pearl
>shiny Roselia appears
I guess it hated all those other Roselia.
>>26520062
I started breeding two days ago and got a Ducking yesterday and a Snubull today. I'm aiming for a Oddish now and about two boxes in so far. Feels a lot better than getting one on wondertrade
>>26519814
>bike back and forth for shinies in emerald in the location i found a shiny in 4 years ago
>shiny golbat
i dont really like golbat but at least crobat's cool
>>26520255
There's a reason people call it Brobat.
>170 larvestas from dexnav
>no shiny
>>26520274
at least it looks real cool in the Colo games, which i traded it to.traded it to both, thank you Battle Tower glitch
>Spent close to 3 hours biking around in the friend safari
>Still nothing
>25 boxes of Zangoose with nothing to show for it
Surely the next one right?
After months of on&off breeding for me, my sister hatched this glorious creature.
Now I just need Tundra, River, and Archipelago.
I can't change my DS to any of these locations either...
If you have any Shiny Vivillon I'd love to trade!
Lucky number 7! (Dexnav)
...tempted to go for 8 before the weekend is over.
>>26519689
LOL you made the thread? Idc, I love you for this post.
>>26520489
>Horde farming for hours
>Still nothing
Life is suffering
>>26520748
Forget hoarding. Dexnav is love. Dexnav is life.
Just got home from work, time to stare at sloths with a mild sense of anticipation and hope for hours on end
>>26520779
I'm trying for male Nidoran, can't DexNav in XY and I'm pretty shit at chaining.
I didn't realise how much DexNav increased shiny chances, though. Once I go back to ORAS, I'll definitely use it to try for a female Snorunt.
>>26520648
I really, REALLY hope you'll get it soon. No one should have to suffer for this long. Not eventhe ones MM'ing for a female Combee
Finally got Porygon...
On to Tyrantrum
>>26520843
Me too, friend. Maybe by next week. See you then, anon.
Around one month later, Articuno is MIA.
I hate your happiness. You don't know true pain unless you try to do this and find shit like this on the way.
After a solid week on the bike, finally, with minutes left in the weekend, he shines.
With his HA.
I couldn't have lasted without all of you shiny hunting friends. Thank you.
