Posted November 18, 2013 I've caught four shinies through fish chaining, and I'd estimate that it took an average of about 40 encounters to get them. The fastest was after about 15, and the longest took probably 70. But I have gotten impatient several times and quit after who knows how many encounters. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 2x Combo |D That just says: "Yah, i'm pink and look like a girl, you got a problem with that?" Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 That one IS a girl The other one is the male |D She is clearly the cooler of the two though c': Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) I got bored of friend safari hunting. But I did somehow amazingly manage to get my first shiny. It was a 5iv Timid shiny female Eevee (IVs: 31\31\31\31\21\31) I don't even do IV breeding, hmm. http://i1050.photobucket.com/albums/s405/D...dy/IMG_8324.jpg Brb going to explode.

Posted November 18, 2013 Ok, now that I beat the Elite Four (which was easy to be honest), I'm off to start IV breeding even though I don't know much about it! I want to try out that Battle Maison thing before going online. That way I can get the hang of EV training in this game. Anyway, I'm kind of lacking in Friend Safaris AND I don't know what type is mine. So... Who's up for helping me and adding some variety to my Friend Safari list? My Friend Code is: 5429-6806-4995 PM me or post your FC so I can add you back! Mine is 0645 5891 0597. *off to add you* ~~~ I have a gallade I made specifically for catching pokemon. He knows false swipe, thunder wave, and hypnosis. He's certainly handy! Share this post Link to post

Wow, congratulations o: I never get that lucky with IVs |D I think I'm going to run Thief and Fling on one of my shiny Weaviles (Magrathea, who also has Pickpocket, which is even better) I don't know it just seems like it'd be fun to play with c': Edited November 18, 2013 by Pika_Oi Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 Maybe we can ask seven deadly sins to turn this into a chart and post it on the first post so other players will easily see it? I don't think I would. As interesting as a topic it is, the real answer is just that it could take you one egg, and it could never happen no matter how many eggs you hatch. There is a point where it's statistically more likely to have happened than not, but it's just chance. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 Some guy showed me his shiny Clawitzer. It was mostly red with some blue/cyan. Thought it was pretty neat lookin'. Share this post Link to post

Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) Did some chain fishing and racked up a streak of 135, breaking my last record of 45. Still no freaking shiny Magikarp. I have the worst luck when it comes to video games... And there's always the chance when I do get one it'll be female, not male... Edit fer typo.

Posted November 18, 2013 Serebii has confirmed the shiny encounter ratio and breeding ratio has increased (er, decreased I guess? Just conformation that it is in fact way easier to find shinies now) details- http://serebii.net/games/shiny.shtml Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 lol I just found the iv calculator on serebii and my char trolls it. For some reason he seems to fast to be legible for a calculation. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 I I think my favorite thing about Pokemon-Amie is how if you touch near the Pokemon for a second and then drag the hand around the mon stands there with its mouth agape and tracks the hand with its eyes xP Or in the case of some mons it stands there with its mouth agape for a few seconds then swipes at the hand in an attempt to high-five you but that isn't as funny :V lol I just found the iv calculator on serebii and my char trolls it. For some reason he seems to fast to be legible for a calculation. Does he have EVs in Speed? That's usually what does it. xP Share this post Link to post
Posted November 18, 2013 Whoa. I offered some random Gengar on the GTS and got a level 1 Japanese Kangaskhan with perfect IVs in HP, Attack, Defense and Speed. It's Adamant with Scrappy. I'm pleased. Anyway, I'm trying to build a nice team for Battle Maison just to rack up a bunch of BP, get the good items (e.g. Life Orb) and get the hang of EV training (Hordes make it very quick, except when it's raining). Then I can worry about my real online team. (Also, thanks to everyone who added me!) Share this post Link to post

Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Finally found a ponyta! When you touch the fire on its mane, your hand burns . It probably won't burn once I've built up a high enough affection level. I really hope to find a shiny ponyta one day, they look amazing. Also, can someone tell me what all 3 of the pokemon in my friend safari are? I only know two of them. My friend code is 0645 5891 0597. Edited November 20, 2013 by Syaoransbear Share this post Link to post
