Post em if you got em, Talk about your current hunts and recent captures or failures.Previous: >>56030977
>>56069173Whenever you're around to trade just drop a code here.
>>56071226it's fairly easy and fast to catch a shiny in SV, but why do i have to play through those stupid fucking raids to get the herba mystica? like half those raids are people not paying attention to the tera type
>>56071226I just did the Sparkling Humungo outbreak for Shiny Chespin yesterday and got a size L and XL out of it. Is it worth trying for a bigger size or should I just stick with the XL? I don't know how hard it actually is for that sandwich to deliver desired results but I know it lacks the encounter boost. Part of me wants to hunt it more but part of me just wants to move on, dreading how long it might take to get a Shiny bigger than XL. (I don't have the Shiny Charm fwiw)
>>56071314Your own problem for not building solo raidmons and targeting Herba raids yourself.Grand, since they started adding Herbas to 7* raids, I've only missed the Herba once. But I already had 4 sandwiches' worth of them as I'd been hunting herba raids (ended up getting a 4-drop from one even).
>>56071314Your own fault for not having a CFW Switch and just injecting all the shinys you want.
Don't bite the bait, it's the same as always you know the drill by now.
>>56071391You don't understand what the word bait means, and conflate it with "saying [thing] i don't like".
>>56068934I don't know if you hold any attachment to that Rillaboom but I'll take it if you don't want it.
>>56071426It's not shiny, and that was my starter. It just happen to be in the same box. My bad for not moving it before taking the screen shot.
having the first mon i find in safari week flee first turn is a little disheartening (mainly because it's at its best when you get a streak of watching carefully and tension flares) but it's fine, don't really have many "safe" mons aside from the nidorans, zubat at night and carvanha and whiscash, but i'm not sure if platinum fixed its 0 flee rate or not
>>56071429I'll take the solgaleo and the latios, if I can get two. What are you after?
>>56071530I'm not after anything. You can trade whatever. Out at the store right now. I'll be back in like 30 minutes.
>>56071429No problem anon and I'm happy to see that you care for it, In that case can I get a Lunala instead please?.
>>56071226i can't say for sure if this is a success or failure, but i've been going at trying to get a shiny bisharp since the last thread and i've been resetting every time the nature wasn't quite what i likedjust now realizing that i could've just kept them and just did raids again because i was too stingy on my herbas>>56071429not sure if you're still giving the eternatus to that one guy last thread, but i'll take it if it's available
>>56071557I have 16 shiny fire ponytas, not counting whatever else I caught in Legends since I last emptied those boxes, I'll give you a couple of them.Whenever you're ready.
>>56071530>>56071642Okay, I'm around.Drop a trade code whenever.
>>560716955607-1604, I'll use my last post number.
>>56071731Derp, not my last post number (1642 was me), but I used 1604, so roll with that.
>>56071733Searching.
>>56071753I'm functionally retarded, it seems. Just went online there, sorry.
>>56071604>eternatusIt's the event one. I actually have two, from my Sword and shield games. I don't mind parting with one.
>>56071753Thank you very much.
>>56071569Whenever you're around, you can have that Lunala.>>56071781No problem.
>>56071789>Whenever you're around, you can have that Lunala.I can't find my copy of sword anywhere and I don't want to place a reserve on it. This is such a pain this is what I get for being so cheap, I'm afraid that I will have to decline it for now but thank you for offer anyway. Next time I get a chance I'll get it digital instead.
>>56071835Do you have SV?
>>56071844>Do you have SV?Yes I do have that digital at least.
>>56071848Okay, I moved that Lunala over to SV with Home.Post a trade code whenever.
>>56071780sure, i can trade you the deerling from the OP image (since i provided it last thread) and a few others i got myself from other games if you'd likeis this through home or online?
>>56071862>>56071862>Okay, I moved that Lunala over to SV with Home.Thank you for going through so much effort anon. Your post number shall be the code.
>>56071866You can give me whatever, I have every shiny I want.And I've been doing the trades in-game.
>>56071862Thank you so much anon I really appreciate it. Lunala has always been one of those pokemon who's shiny I've wanted but never had luck getting. I hope you have a wonderful day/night anon.
>>56071903No problem.Glad you got what you wanted.
>>56071875gotcha, we can use your post i'm replying to keep it simple since everyone else has been going off of that too
>>56071922Searching.
>>56071922You there?
>>56071959sorry, yes i'm on sv using >>56071875 as the code
>>56071972My dude, I've clearly been doing all these trades on SwSh. Except for the one where I specifically said I used Home to move over the Lunala.
>>56071972Oh, you're the shamelessly greedy tool who wanted every single shiny.
>>56071980i had no idea you were doing these exclusively on sw/sh, my bad>>56071980not sure where that's coming from but that's not me, but i gave you that impression i'll step out of this
Still a bit salty they put en expy date on the shiny eternatus codes
>>56071265im online now if you're ready
>>56072207I'm around. Using 5607 2207 for the trade code.
>>56072234On Sword.
>>56072207Okay, later than I guess.
>>56072234my bad bro i'm getting on anytime today is fine
>>56072327Same code if you want it.
>>56072343cool headed to the pc now
>>56072343>>56072348>>56072327s e a r c h i n g
HELL YA thank you anoncool ball, cool shiny, cool OTi will keep it forever thanks again!
>>56072388>cool OTI am super unoriginal. I always just pick whatever the canon name of the player trainer for that generation is.>thanks againYou're welcome.
>>56072406>I am super unoriginal. I always just pick whatever the canon name of the player trainer for that generation is.NTA and I know others do it as well but you wouldn't have done one last wonder trade for gen 6 before the servers went down. Like did you trade away a male ralts?
>>56072415>did you trade away a male raltsI would never catch a male ralts.No cross dressing dudes allowed in my games.
>>56072415>>56072430>MALE RALTSISHYGDFDTS
>>56072430>I would never catch a male ralts.Just checking because the OT was named May and it was from AS. Also it was level 1 when I got it so it must have been a breed reject. I'm only asking because I thought it must have been a small world. Besides the poor fella has been met date of 2015 so he must have been in the box for years.
>>56072463>MayWould have been Haruka if it was me.
>>56072463>May>ASLiterally the version I played and the name I chose, I'm so original
>>56072463>he must have been in the box for yearsPokemon in your box are just hanging out and playing with the other pokemon in your boxes.
>>56072483>using the English localization nameShameful display.
>>56072485not sure if this is canonbut i guess that would explain the 30 mon per box ruleas there wouldn't be enough physical space for all the shitmonwhat if there were 30 wailords?the anime briefly shows what its like inside the balltheir spirit\consciousness is transported to a calm\comfy place that suits them - they have leisure\restbut their physical bodies turn into pc data (laser optic beams bouncing off mirrors inside the ball)swirling in place until called upon N was rightif monsters resist capturethey deserve to be left alonethey are not tools of war \ power they are sentient and require humans absence not our helpthe outlier\exceptions are those that choose to use trainers to become stronger (many have this goal)
>>56072494Sue me, I also watched the anime up to BW dubbed as a kid (after which I dropped it), so it felt weird to go with anything but the localization, just saying
>>56072514>dubbedGross.
>>56072517Hey, I go with subs now for everything else, I didn't know better
>>56072494ok guysso i had some weird ESP as a kidi predicted many things in the pokemon universe>4th grade, larping pokemon battles with friends at recess >my "snowy" vulpix is ice type>they say that its not canon and would never happen>i forward the GF announcement screenshot from sun\moon when it dropped to my friend from that era over instagram>he immediately gets freaked out and blocks me on all platforms next:>buy leaf green version in highschool>was hesitant but i eventually snagged it>name my female protag dawn>buy pokemon black 2 at launch>cool symbols on the keyboard this time around>name myself the sun emoji and get repeating digits for trainer IDi thought it was just a coincidence but after the 3rd time def feels strange
>>56072541pics or it didn't happen
>>56072478Ok fair enough thank you for humoring me anon.>>56072478I Can't blame you because when I played the originals I always used ruby or my real name.>>56072485That is genuinely good to know because I always found it sad that pokemon were just 'stuck' in the pc box until you called for them.>>56072514>Sue me, I also watched the anime up to BW dubbedSame but I still like to go back every so often and watch a few episodes from the past seasons.>>56072508Though I do understand a lot of N's talking points I do have to remind you that according to the Unova lore. Pokemon appear to humans because they want to help them and fighting or befriending trainers is how they keep that promise.
>>56072544
>>56072566>that titleNow I feel terrible asking for proof, but may she rest easy
>>56072566for gen 3 it only shows transfer date sadly
>>56072582my shining vape i bred in xy era is named after my childhood dalmation that loved the water & his kiddypool all my dogs were good dogsi was really luckyi hope they dont mind being pokemon kek
>make shiny lvl3 sandwich>accidentally talk to a trainer in the way bc she was next to an item on the ground>click run>give 13K to the "winner">see thisFUCK THE POKEMON COMPANY
>>56072743Wait... Can you forfeit trainer battles now?
>>56072743Just think of it as a donation anon they must have needed the money and shiny more than you. But really though that's just devilish and now I fear the same thing happening to me.
>>56072743why didnt you win?
>>56072858>>56072743better yet, why didn't you beat this trainer before?
>>56072861>>56072858i havent fought a single trainer this gen that wasn't forced>>56072798>>56072758i wasn't that close to her either is what really got me fuckin salty afthe game would be an unplayable mess if the "!" icon appeared the second they lock eyes like the old games
>>56072866>he didn't get the rewards from the pokemon league representatives at the pokecenters for battling trainers in an areangmi
>>56072866shoulda just beat her skill issue dog
i dont have the switch games, can i just trade from the home app? i also got some shiny male ralts (spA up) to trade haha...
>>56072557>that according to the Unova loreHisuian/Sinnohian lore too, an old folk tale passed down in Sinnoh is similar to writings found buried in Hisui, inferred to have been written by Cogita.
it only took 4 balls, but now I have both regis. I am so happy /shg/ bros, I will buy the plushies to celebrate this.Btw how do you avoid the rng seed issue in emerald's safari zone? should i avoid SR's and just save after running out of time?
>>56073126Congrats, anon. Off topic, but do we have the same monitor? I saw the buttons on yours and they're like almost identical to mine.
>>56073146It could be, this is a thinkvision monitor. Also guess who showed up? A SHINY TEDDIURSA! this is my first shiny in gen III
What is the easiest possible shiny hunt in all games? I want to do one but im a casual.
>>56073159Is there water all over your screen?>>56073126Thats cool. Post a pic of the plushie you are getting. I wish they made his shiny cooler/more different.
>>56073169*In any gameTaking time into account as well.
>>56073169SV or PLA anything, seriously, these games throw shinies at you like crazyFunny story: back when SV launched by the time I reach the school my shiny counter had a pretty number 8 but I never saw them fucking anywhere. Yes, even before finishing the damn tutorial I already could had 8 shinies
>>56073159Interesting, I have a Lenovo T-something but probably just rehashed. Mine's just a 1080p monitor, but it gets the job done when I need to multitask.>>56073169Depends on HOW you want to hunt. ORAS? Horde hunting or Devnav literally anything to get the number up. Masuda Method (breeding pokemon from two different language OTs) takes longer but in my opinion is more satisfying.>>56073179I thought that includes the ones you already have in your possession, but if it's like what I was told in /wfg/, that's really cruel for them to make a statistic.
>>56073194the game keeps track of any shiny:>you encountered>hatched>got via trade>got via HOME>got via Mystery GiftAND>spawned near you on the wild
And keep in mind shinies CAN AND WILL spawn out of bounds
>>56073171it's likely mold, but I am looking for someone who can clean it. Also these are the plushies, I will pay the bills tomorrow and order them right away
>>56073179>shiny counterI didnt realize this was a thing. Where do I check it? I dont have any saves for the 3DS games so any other than them work. I see that there is an easy way to get a shiny Flutter Mane in S/V that is SUPER easy and I have area zero unlocked already.
>>56073201Honestly, yeah that fucking sucks
>>56073220The regieleki one is really good and I kind of want it. I usually get the sitting cuties plushies. One or two every few months when ones come back in stock. Have you thought about doing a screen replacement mode? They are easy these days.
>>56073223It's just in the profile section of SV. As far as shiny hunting in non-3DS games, it's a lot easier in the Switch games as opposed to the DS games, considering that you would need the full national dex as opposed to a fraction of that in the Switch games (not to mention online services). Well, and aside from the fact that legit copies of the DS games are stupidly expensive these days, you could just stay shiny hunting on SV.And just as a personal anecdote, I did somehow get two shiny Cyndaquils on Pokemon Go yesterday like in the same general area, so maybe you could look around on Go if you want to get one. But I guess keep in mind that shinies come more by chance in that game than by specifically hunting for one
>>56073245A friend suggested that, but the thing is I don't know of anyone who can do it (and will not screw it up). Maintenance for these old machines is not common around here.
>>56073220>>56073245I have a Regieleki plushie. It doesn't actually sit due to how Regieleki is designed, but god DAMN it's so cute! I don't know how they made one of the ancient golems so cute, but they succeeded
>>56073263Forgot to mention the Cyndaquils I got during Cyndaquil Community Day, and same thing happened with Noibat Community Day where I got one>inb4 "gO"A shiny is a shiny, though I'll obviously consider hacked 6IV ones less valuable than a full-odds one that you stumble on by accident
>>56073263I have copies of all the gb/gba/ds games (or at least one of the version or each) so I can hunt on them but I dont have the full dex on probably any of them so yeah I think I'll start with S/V and Legends for now. I was trying to shiny hunt sudowoodo in crystal but I wanted to keep actually playing so gave up after like 200 resets.>>56073278I have this sitting cuties plush of my fav pokemon and want to get a shroomish one too. I should take a pic of them all together sometime.
>>56072998iirc you can use HOME mobile app without a Nintendo Account but if you do have a Switch you can download HOME there and link your Nintendo Account (linking can be done through mobile app too)>Can I use HOME without buying the Switch Pokemon games? YesYou can transfer from Bank to HOME and you'd be able to use HOME's free services. However, you do need to have a paid HOME sub to grab your Bank transfers.You can transfer Pokemon from GO to HOME and you'd be able to use HOME's free services. It requires to have a linked Nintendo Account but no need for paid HOME sub. You are limited to HOME's first box unless you pay your sub.
>>56073284>>56073263>>56073296Im not really a huge fan of GO but I do have some old pokemon I should transfer from back close to the launch for fun.
>>56073296Full Dex? Just remember only from Gen 5 and upwards have Shiny Charm
>>56073340How do you do it in gen 4? Do you not need the full dex to chain or whatever its called.
>>56073278>>56073296I have a massive plushie collection, half of my bed belongs to them. Are you getting anything from Kalos sitting cuties? I want delphox and espurr.
>>56073352You just need to unlock Nat Dex in older gens to increase some spawn pools but that's it. The rest is either sheer autism SRing or following the procedure (chaining)
>>56073400>Are you getting anything from Kalos sitting cuties?Wasn't really planning on it, but I might pick up one of Trevenant since it's one of my favorite Pokemon, but I dunno
got em
Second shiny for Safari Week, little fella was encounter 1030. Crit captured too
>>56074088what is safari week
>>56074232Online shiny hunting event where people hunt in the Safari Zone. It adds an element of danger and uniqueness as there's the chance for the Pokemon to run but also you get them in a relatively rare Pokeball too
>>56074088>>56074248isnt that painful in bdsp since the shiny charm doesnt work?
>>56074390I've been pretty lucky with two in just over a thousand encounters but ultimately yeah it's full odds hunting
>>56074411Might as well join you to see if i get lucky too.
>>56074456Wishing you luck! There's a fun element of hunting for just any old shiny instead of going for a specific target. Hoping to get a bunch more encounters in myself today after I finish work.
Here's what I have left of shiny Dynamax Adventure pokemon. Any anyone wants any of these, just ask.
>>56074865Im at the point that shinies from others do nothing for me and shinies i get become irrelevant and boring 5 minutes after i get them. What do
>>56074888Depends on why you want to hunt. If you want the sentimental value then you need to create a story around it and that might mean trying a different style of hunt.Take >>56074248 for example. Or perhaps try a shiny badge quest. Ultimately shinies are as valuable as you feel they are so if you want that sentimental value you should create it yourself.
>>56074924>>56074888For me, I enjoy getting shinies of my favorites, might help if you're unsure how you want to shiny hunt. Like, I'm not gonna shiny hunt Avaluggs since I just don't really care nor do I want to spend the time. But I will hunt, for example, something like Arcanine (which I have done in SM) because I like using that Pokemon and it's shiny color scheme. And it's hard to stay motivated when it's like the one thing you're doing, so I'll say take your time. If you don't want to shiny hunt, then don't until you feel like it.
>>56074888Sounds like a porn addict brain, and you have massively burnt out dopamine receptors.
>>56075036Too real, too real.
>>56074865>shinx linelol feels like everyone who wants one has like 3, me included
>>56075239>everywhere in PLA>eerywhere in SVwhat were they thinking
>>56075036Literally me.The porn addict AND the shiny hunter.
>>56075036Porn is the one thing I don’t have an addiction to
>>56074888Not even breeding for a shiny? Sure you can SR for a shiny legendary, but taking away all that time from being a coomer and finally getting a shiny, there's nothing like it
>>56075331Yeah but like, after you get it you just go straight to the next one.
Someone tole me the giagton ball is better in battles than the ultra ball, and damn, this thing is broken. Only had it fail once.
>>56071226i want a shiny furret and hydrapple
>>56074390NTA but despite using two gen 4 games so i get 1/8192 odds encounters are generally faster just due to the fact you don't have to send out a pokemon. HGSS (and gen 3 but i don't have any of those games) in particular you can probably sprint through 4-5 encounters a minute if you turn off battle animations in the former.
>>56074865Is there a limit to how many? I need Articuno Raikou and Thundurus.
>>56075656You can have whatever. Just drop a trade code here whenever you're around.
>>56075357>go straight to the next oneI mean, if you have an idea of what you want to get, sure. I went on a shiny hunt speedrun back when ORAS came out, then I lost the motivation then resumed like a few years later. So that's what I thought too, but I'd not hunt unless you REALLY want to. Though the new shiny hunting methods these days mean the wait isn't as long as it used to be, so don't take my word for it.
>>56075936I'll have Articuno Raikou and Thundurus then please.On Shield with the code 2023 2023. Hope I'm doing this right. I haven't done much trading before.
>>56075992Thanks a lot Anon. I've nearly finished all my legends now.
>>56076029You're welcome.
>>56072541I booted up my old copy of Platinum and I'd nicknamed my Girafarig Fairgiraf, although that was me being too lazy to think of a real name.
>>56074865what do you want for eternatus?the rest of them i caught in pogo :3i still have one more masterball if you needif you can trade in scarlet\violet i have more tho
>>56072406>I always just pick whatever the canon name of the player trainer for that generation is.Funny stuff, I also do this or just use the name of the game as my OT. But now I have deep regrets about this and have to get every single shiny from USUM, SwSH and Scarlet again. At least I already got my 3rd type null and 3rd poipole with my real name now. But so many legendaries to get again in ultra wormholes. So many SOS hunts to do again. I feel like such an idiot.
>>56076552>But now I have deep regrets about this and have to get every single shiny from USUM, SwSH and Scarlet againWhy?
>>56076662I want my real name as the OT, I might even hunt Celebi again because my name was in all caps instead of just the first letter.
>>56076368>what do you want for eternatus?Bidoof.Just post a link code whenever you're around.
>>56076697There are easily millions of people who have your name. How can you be sure they won't pretend to be you and claim credit for all your shinys?
>>56076697Kinda feel this. I carried over my shinies from ORAS and honestly having the default (localized) name felt like it wasn't really mine, you know? So I think you have a point. I even named my default SM character "Sun" since no default name was available, and the first thing I did when I transferred some to SV was trade away all of them aside from a shiny Arcanine I have in a Beast Ball.
>>56076750*available at the time, since I got it at release (jokes on me, I kinda wished I got USUM when that came out but oh well)
>>56076750>>56076697Just checking. But you do know you are not a video game character, right?
>>56076777Second guy you replied to isn't me, I just didn't like to self-insert by naming a character myself.
>>56076820Just checking, but you aren't not retarded and understand that "you" can be plural pronoun, right?
>>56076850No sorry, I'm retarded and didn't know "you" could be a plural pronoun. But you knew that already, right?
>>56076745we'll have to reschedule for tomorrow I had something come up I had to leave town :c
I'm fucking seething some nigger in an online Dynamax Adventure had a butterfree and used rage powder twice fighting Lunas, killed both times ofc. We were one hit away from catching, but instead we got KEKED
I keep getting faggot male ralts. Cringe.
take care take care take care
I remember seeing some video of a black lesbian shiny hunting for Arceus who was successful, and I thought if this clam digger gets to have one, then so do I. He's my favorite legendary. I put on my Brilliant Diamond and some Huggbees to listen to for fun, went to the top of the mountain, and saved right before the encounter. I reset just a few times, and then doubted if I was doing it right, so I looked up a video just to make sure the shininess wasn't predetermined at a different point or something strange like that. Before the guy found his shiny, I found my shiny just after about 14 resets, and I laughed and I laughed.Thank you Huggbees.
>>56078733im targeting this soon,it really is a good shiny anonbut holy fuck BD is such a shit game kek
Someone give me a random shiny (not a legendary) to hunt or breed for
>>56079018>Someone give me a random shiny (not a legendary) to hunt or breed forcrogunk I like his shiny colors.
>>56079020You know what? I think Toxicroak is pretty cool so I'll go with it. I got other things going on, so I'll probably have it by the weekend at latest
>25000 Regieleki encounters >5 star shinies fled >Only a ~30% to have encountered the square shiny by this pointWhy did I start this
>farming heart scales>shiny luvdisct-thanks....
>>56079360wait are square shinies rare for the regis?
>>56079608They are: 1/65536 for Squares, and 1/4096 for the Star shinies. No shiny charm effect either
>>56079716damn I am really lucky, both regidrago and regieleki are square shinies
>>56079751Nice. I got Regice as Square which was cool, but I've had to hunt these two, got Drago a few weeks ago
bump
Shiny azelf and Kyogre today very nice. It would be better if this Snivy shined but whatever
Can't you see it's all your futurefeelings have to be pushed awaycan't you see it's just a feelingShine, shine on me
>>56074088very nice anon, the great marsh does not get enough love>>56074390least ADHD nu-gen hunteranon if you dont like the odds of hunting, why hunt?
>>56080994>why hunt?I dont.
>>56080999lmao, based
What if I bought BDSP only to get shiny Shaymin? What then? ;)
>>56081383>What if I bought BDSP only to get shiny Shaymin? What then? ;)Anon, I...
>>56081383People will laugh at you for having the ghetto nigger shiny Shaymin, and not the true shiny Shaymin that you get from Pokemon platinum.
>>56081462Nah, you'll get ostracised for hacking your game to get a shiny, as odds are you weren't around to be one the 760,000 who completed the game, much less then also got the event item. You justifying cheating in a kid's game for sparkles /= people accepting your shit. Should have just injected for all the good it was and time wasted.
nice, pretty close to when the game registers nighttime so the nidos become their evolutions so it's good to at least find the base form of one.>>56080994safari hunting has been the most tense i've been about shinies in years, it's really fun.
>>56081568 and i'm 0/2 on these things, amazing
>>56081576Are you a gambling addict outside of shinies?
>>56081521got his injecting ass, he couldn't respond
>>56081778i don't gamble and even if i did knowing my luck i'd probably never win.
>>56081521>the 760,000 who completed the gameThere's no way this few people actually completed platinum.
>>56081828thats too many actually
>>56081832I can't find any sort of citation that backs up your claim after my roughly 3 minutes of google searching.
>>56081521Injected pokemon are more real than legit pokemon.TPC's hack checks are known for giving false positives, and as a true shiny hunter, I can make sure the coding of my pokemon won't trigger any hack check flags.
>>56081828Industry average - 90% of copies sold will not be completed. 10% of 7.6m is 760,000.
>>56082027Why exactly should anyone care what some random nobody says on CNN?Also, you clearly didn't even read what you posted.
Holy fishpaste, Miss Puff, it’s a rabid sea bear!
What video compressors do you guys use? I just had a random shiny encounter from a few minutes ago that I wanted to show, but the lowest I can get is like 4.4 MB
>>56082343Webm for lazyshttps://argorar.github.io/WebMConverter/
>>56081576My first wild shiny was a Safari Zone Nidarino in Fire Red. It ran. I know the pain.
>>56082364Thanks, I'll take a look at it tomorrow
>>56082534well there is around 5 more days of safari week so there's still a chance i can reclaim it or nidorino unless i get a massive drought. or just catch fucking anything
>>56079435soulful af shiny though
>>56082343Alright, hopefully this works. I found a shiny Fletchling unintentionally while just roaming around this part near Los Platos. Coincidentally, this is right below the cliff where I got my first full-odds shiny in the game, a Fletchlinder. I already have a regular Talonflame from my original team, but I'll hold onto these for now.>>56082364Gave a look at this, turned out I can't use it since I'm an itoddler. Thanks though.
>>56082068Whatever hacknig, get onto Tony Stark, maybe he can loan you a time-space GPS, you can go get the event ticket legit this time.
>>56082343Video converter on 123apps suite.
>>56083320What's the deal with you being a deranged freak who thinks everyone who replies to you is the same person?Also, "hacking" isn't a name or noun.
10142 checks later and it finally fucking shined
>>56083725Nice. I dropped both regi hunts but might go back for them. Have to start new saves for them doe
>>56071414It's been like that for a while now.
Finally hatched this little bastard after 5 months, my bestest buddy!
>>56084369Good job anon and I didn't realize until now but porygon really matches with a beast ball.
i only have xy, do the other games have the increase hatching boost like o-power?
>>56084369Good stuff, anon!I've been meaning to catch a shiny Porygon in a Beast Ball for a while now, I might do that once I'm finished with my Beast Ball Living Dex
>>56084413Gen 7 has Roto Hatch power plus you can run around with TaurosGen 8 and upwards had egg cycles/steps reduced so it basically feels like you have those hatch boosts turned on permanently
>>56085293I think BDSP actually raised them lmao
>>56085346>BDSPAnyway
Aside from possibly shiny Phione, is there any particularly "annoying" or otherwise time-consuming shinies to breed for?
>>56085474Arentthey all the same?
>>56085474I'd say Wynaut. All the other babies have several options along the generations in case you don't want to breed for one and the more recent the generation the better odds (except Gen 2's Odd Egg where applicable).Meanwhile Wynaut's "extra choices" are locked to Mirage Island and BW swarms which means breeding is your best bet
>>56085499Some eggs take longer to hatch, if you wanna count that
>>56085654Oh and I would add Relicanth I guess. 40 egg cycles, not many other methods to find one and most of them involve fishing so it is up to you: >>56085474
>>56085826You know what? Scratch Relicanth, I just remembered it is available on DAs so you could find a path with one and keep resetting after capturing it with DA odds
Guys I don't know where else to ask. I have a cute shiny Onix in LeafGreen and now I'm playing SoulSilver. How do I trade it over if I don't have a DS Lite? I'm playing on a hacked DSi LL and have access to the save files. I thought I could use some emulator that emulates a DS Lite but I can't figure it out. I tried Desmume which loads LG into cartridge slot 2 but when I fire SS up and my SS save it's not giving me an option to trade.
>>56085877cant you load the LG save into pkhex, save the onix data then copy it over into your SS save?
>>56085936Can I? That's cheating though. That's not a trade.
>>56085973if you're not going to buy a ds lite then you have no place to get sanctimonious bitch
>>56085984So you're not smart enough and a big knower of Pokemon to give me proper advice? Thanks for replying at least.
>>56085993are you retarded? pkhex *is* your advice AND your only option if you're not gonna do it legit.
>>56085996Thank you for trying. I'll just wait for someone smarter.
>asks a question that will obviously lead to an answer he doesn't like.>gets proper advice and insults the person trying to help them.>continues to act like you really are looking for a answer when you know it's not possible.Honestly that's good bait I give it 8/10.
>>56084413like someone else said gen 7 (specifically the ultra games) has the roto loto, but unlike o-powers he gives them out randomly and in my experience is one of the rarer drops (whenever i feel like hatching eggs which is really rare) so it's probably better to just use the abilities that passively boost it like flame body.
>>56083361>Also, "hacking" isn't a name or nounWelcome to the evolution of languages, driven by humans.And yeah, yis all may well be, given you all have a justification why you need to cheat in a kid's game and why your hacking is justifiable. Not how it works, accept your nature or fuck off, no inbetween or plaudits for something just as easily got as setting the pokégen/hex file to "Shiny", given you needed to fuck with setting in some fashion to get an expired event item. I usually stay shtum on these matters, but bare basic facts are if you didn't get the item legit during, it's just a hack and all kids showing them off here do is display the depths of their autism by hacking, then showing off how not cheaters they are by SR's till sparkles.
>>56085877Emulators are already cheating so be a good boy and get a new DS
>>56085871Is it worth getting SwSh? I visited my sister who has it and I was fiddling around with the game and saw the graphics (specifically the NPC trainers not looking totally braindead like the ones from SV). But that's about all I know, and the reason I didn't get it before was that some of my favorites weren't in the game.
>>56086049Additionally:In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, using a Secret Pal's "Take care of an Egg" skill decrease an Egg's current Egg cycle count by half of its base Egg cycle count, rounded up.In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, if the player leaves an Egg at Poké Pelago's Isle Avue, its remaining Egg cycles are decreased over time.
>>56085877You don't *trade* pokémon from Gen 3 to Gen 4, you need to plug the carts in the slots and go to Pal Park to transfer them. They also need to be legitimate carts or the data WILL get wiped (lost 3 shinies that way) so you're going to either have to buy a DS/DS Lite (haa, good luck getting one that's not about to fail horribly, given it's now 20 years since its launch) or hack, no other options.
>>56086151If there's a gamestop/CEX/cash converters, try and get it at less than full price. I'm not going to stop playing just because of the complaints of people who misunderstand Game Freak's intent with their series, but at the same point, I legitimately haven't played a GF Pokémon game I disliked. Have they been paragons of coding? No. Have they been pinnacle examples of marrying child and adult audience experiences? No. Has that ever stopped me buying the new game? No, because the core loop is fun and I'm the type of nerd who collects shit anyway. From football stickers, to pop culture figurines (not funkos, think more die-cast metal statuettes and action figures) and even football shirts. Collecting pokémon is a fundamentally cheaper way of scratching my collectorfag itch, by not actually having to spend many monies collecting several things.
>>56086188Definitely have seen them at Gamestop last time I checked, will take a look when I get the chance
>>56086151It's a kinda shit game, but if you want certain shiny legendaries, or are happy to exploit RNG/date skipping for shiny everything else, then it's a goldmine. You can find copies bundled with the DLC on Marketplace for dirt cheap
>>56086205>Marketplace for dirt cheapNTA but where would one look for deals like these?
>>56086151Just imo, it's one of the worst "Pokemon" games in that you're incentivized to constantly replace your existing team with the same pokemon but better stats as you get further in the game and unlock high star raids and other things or just are able to catch higher level spawns, but it's probably one of the better rpgs in the pokemon series. Megas are still cooler than dynamax, at least for me.
>>56086205I already do this in SV, as in date skipping for the mass outbreaks I want. Guess it's already decided for me, but I still need to finish PLA so maybe another time. Didn't really like that legendaries were shinylocked in the SV DLC, but that's not a major selling point. It's just that some Pokemon don't transfer to SV or PLA, but they do for SwSh, and I don't really want them to rot in HOME either. >>56086220Agreed, each gen has their own gimmicks obviously and Z moves were the most forgettable IMO, but Megas were alright to me
>>56086214You'd have to waddle through Facebook's Marketplace and look for people posting videogame sales or yard sales (hopefully near your area) and target those if cheap enough. Just calculate if adding gas/transport to that place would be worth than say a Gamestop or from a Walmart or the eShop
>>56086118>Welcome to the evolution of languages, driven by humans.This is the cope that retards come up with to deal with the fact they are always wrong about everything and people mock them.
3 Ralts later and we finally get a female Kirlia.
>>56086242>Z moves were the most forgettable IMO, but Megas were alright to meI don't like the tone of Z-moves, but remove the dances and I have no objections since I never did comp. SM/USUM including megas was very cool to me, though. Even if they were just postgame
Question.What do you think is more "special".A shiny pokemon with your own OT that you caught/hatched and trained all on your own.Or a shiny pokemon from a limited time event that is very hard to get legit?Excluding specific overlaps. Like Emerald shiny Mew which fits both situation. Or cherish ball Goomy.
>>56086456if it doesnt have my OT its worthless to me
>>56086456Depends which one I have more memories/attachment to. I'm more attached to some of the DNS shinies I have from a JP Black 2 because of how much of a hassle it was to get everything working where as I do not care at all about Bronzong #5 from PLA.
>>56086552How do you feel about the fact many people out in the world have the same OT as you?
>>56086552>>56086572i carry this sentimenti built my own living-form dexi have a common name, but i enjoy seeing my signature on each shiny\moni of course make exceptions for cherish events etc>>56086456its all relative,'special' is subjective to the ownerat the end of the day none of it is 'special'as its just digital data that will be destroyed when we dienothing is permanent just try to have funi have sentimental attachment to event monsters because i remember where i was in life at the timeand how hard things used to be +still went out of my way to drive to gamestop etc
>>56086572Jokes on them, my autism encompasses my OT AND the number of my Trainer ID
>>56086701unfathomably based
>>56086701By sheer statistics, there is likely to be someone who has your OT and your TID.
If you had a full living shiny dex, what would be the best way to showcase it?
>>56086701keki thought i was the only one that would reset if"i didn't liek the digits">>56086805pokemon home
>>56086823>pokemon homeOn the switch or mobile?
>>56086848You mean to have others view? Switch looks much better
>>56086890Really? I think mobile looks better. Because it allows you to see 3d models.
what a pain in my assdo i go for a second one to have both tande and maushold?
>>56087118Family of 3
>>56087118The more I see of this "pokemon" the more I dislike it. Why is it not permanently joined together?
I am okay with getting traded shinies, thats how the game is supposed to be played :^)
>>56087205samebut i check the stats like an autist and release\retrade anything that looks even remotely suspicious >>56087204like a conjoined twin? horrifying kek>>56087145i got one of those from a raidits not shiny but im not gonna hunt for thatleave those types of hunts for attention-seekers like shiny catherine or tamashii or whatever
>>56087228>like a conjoined twin? horrifying kekyes, exactly like that. Like Dugtrio.
>surprise trade>random avalugg from japanese player>it's shiny>nothing suspicious about itt-t-thanks, at least it wasn't pokevend or monforge shit
>>56071226>Shiny breeding for a Rotom in SwSh>Get it on the third hatchYou bet your ass I chased that high, tried for a shiny zigzagoon, and got fucking nothing for a week straight.
>using old 3ds XL to double hunt>battery is completely shot so if it doesn't have the cord in it at all times it dies in a minute>whoops didn't notice i accidentally slipped the cord out>have like a second of it blinking red before it shuts offit shouldn't bother me considering shinies are luck based anyway but fuck if it isn't annoying
>>56087204Stop fucking your relatives
wait, did they ever patched the shiny ghost during day glitch?Been trying to hunt ghastly from an outbreak near some ruins and everything else is still spawning as usual minus the little balls of gas
>>56087824as usual bitching magic did its thing.Ended up getting two, a male and a female
>>56087788anon your battery is at risk of exploding, I had that same problem for years until I finally got to replacing it.
Now I got this little gal from an outbreak. this is the first time since the games launched that I've seen a shiny from ots evo line, and looks kinda neat
>>56087824the encounter table for Gastlys is night yeah
Whoever posted a screenshot of this site before to taunt me has done irreparable damage to my psyche
>>560877883ds batteries are like $30, available on Amazon and super duper easy to replace anon
>"full odds">has 10+ instances up:/ come on now
>>56088777>Soft resets once>"""Full odds""""
>>56088817>encounters more than 1 pokemon>""""full odds""""
>>56088817>>56088867how many instances do you have up?
>>56088919I throw away my Switch and game if the first encounter isnt a shiny.
>>56088929This + release everything on Pokemon home. I’m going to build a full odds complete shiny dex
>start oras to try dexnav and chain fishing>random full odds wurmple while running to pokemoncentreok man
>>56089518Tell us which it turns into
>>56089557cute
found kartana, so guzzlord is nextI will have to play through UM again for pheromosa and celesteela, as well as most legendaries.
Found a shiny Spiritomb clearing outbreaks to get an Onix. Cool, wasn’t expecting that
>>56089816>I will have to play through UM again fUghh I plan to do the same and I'm already dreading it...
>>56074865there are so many i like here, but if you're still giving these out, could i have the latias, ho-oh, xerneas, & yveltal?
I'm hunting the ultra wormhole mons in US/UM right now for shiny Audino : )I already failed a shiny Swanna because I was convinced she wouldn't use brave bird...
>>56090272aren't you excited about you next alola guided tour anon?
>>56090428Don't be greedy, anon
>>56090438You can save after you enter the wormhole and it will always be shiny because its generated right there if you want to be extra careful.
>>56089601never evolve from casits so cool
>>56079020>>56079112Crap, I don't think I'll be able to do it soon, but I will come through. Long story short, lot of things going on but not enough to stop me from checking in every now and then. The desire to shiny hunt there, but the time isn't, unfortunately. But I will definitely post it here when I do get that Croagunk for sure.
>>56090757And I mean in whatever /shg/ thread is up at the time, not this one obviously as it's close to bump limit.
>>56090757No problem anon, take care of whatever you need to. Different colored pixels will always be here but life is more important.
Question: If I have 2 of the same Pokemon and I'm trying to figure out which is the bigger one, what's the best way I can do that in a way that I can identify them? Like if I do the picnic I can see which is slightly bigger but I can't tell who is whom.
>>56091291theres a NPC in the mesagoza who examines the size of pokemon
>>56091325They're in the same size group so I'm kind of stuck with eyeballing it I think. I just can't figure out how to tell which is which.
>>56091342i think each group is just one size, so they'll be exactly the same if they're in the same group
>>56091357It's a range.>XXL: 231-254If it comes down to it I'll just pick a random one but I figured I'd ask in case anyone knew something.
>>56091325will she examine the size of my ballsack?
Friendly reminder that for all of you who may want a shiny meltan/melmetal.In a few hours starts GO's 8th annyv and Meltan will have the chance to be shiny, last time it happened was early Sword Shield's cycle so get it now or wait another few years until TPC decide to release it again or GO does another fest
>>56091680go app will be fuckin dead before these worthless pos come back to the game
>>56091680Ugh I've never played pokemon go before. How much effort is it for me to get meltan before the anniversary is up?
>>56092068You can start a new file, play some 15 minutes to get through tutorials and connect a Nintendo Account to your HOME account (this last step is what grants you the Meltan Box). Once you send your first GO mon to HOME then your Box activates. No other limitations to check Meltans other than your own luck in those 60 minutes the box is active. If possible I'd recommend playing near several Pokestops to restock your Pokeballs like near a Starbucks or McD or public parks registered as Pokestops
>>56087948>>56088673yeah i'll definitely replace it soon, it's usually good in sleep mode but it ran through it's battery during that as well (though i didn't put the cable in when the 2ds battery was fully charged for a while because i was busy so that one's on me). i'll still try to get something from great marsh super rod since if i stop at the last 3 days of safari week it'll just be the whole gambler's fallacy thing, gotta go until the end.
>>56092121I've heard I get another box if I link either of the let's go games right? how does that work?
>>56092154You used to only get that same box if you linked GO with LGPE but that was changed. The only other "box" you can get is if you link with SV and you get a chest that spawns Roaming Form Gimmighouls for 30 minutes; to activate the chest you need to send a postcard from GO to SV
>>56092228So In total I just have 1 hour/day to hunt for shiny Meltan this fest and Let's Go PikaEevee arent needed at all right?
>>56091680>Already had 2 in GO from previous events but don't like transfering shinies into Home unless I've got dupes>Gear myself up for a long week of Mystery Box opening>Get both shinies in the first 10 minutes of the first boxDid they buff the odds or something? Shiny Roaming Gimmighoul when?
>>56092299No LGPE, yes to 60 minutes for checks (you can check and run away if it doesn't sparkle, more efficient this way) and no, the box can't be opened daily; it has a 72 hour cooldown but during this festival it is reduced to 48 hours. I'd recommend if you have another phone available to create an alternate account and do the same so you can spread them and have a "daily" shot. If you do find a shiny Meltan in your "alt" you can trade it (Meltan is the only mythic that can be traded between GO players) to your "main" and then send it to HOME. Just a heads up, trades require to be friends (piss easy), being level 10 (easy too) and Stardust (a resource in GO acquired mostly by catching mons). Stardust costs increase drastically if both players don't have the same Pokemon species registered but it should be okay, you will catch Meltans nonetheless
>>56092328You don't even need to trade it, you can hook up to 6 (I think) GO accounts to one HOME accountAlso if you want to avoid the G stamp in HOME then you have to transfer to LGPE first
>>56092338it retains the stamp
>>56092363No it doesn't. The Origin Mark will be GO but the GO stamp in the box will be absent. LGPE also allows you to recapture in a Premier Ball, only way possible as Meltan/metal don't appear in raids
My pain is growing stronger everyday when i dont get this Nihilego to shine. It's a psyop by KGB and Mossad agents.
How's my team looking.
>>56071226Shiny hunt in Gen 9 was a fucking cancer
>>56092906Cute and fuckable.
>>56092957Please stop being mentally ill.
>>56092981
>>56093021No furry or fetish shit is one of the rules. Fuck off.
>>56093043Play Platinum and read the library books.
>>56093080You mean the books that say these were pre-evolved humans that looked the same as pokemon? Also, again, fuck off.
>>56093119Mad cuz wrong.
>>56093127>anyone who says anything i no liek is mad!!!Ask me how I know you were bullied in school.Because only pathetic losers have coping devices like this. Also, nothing I said is wrong.
Just looked at a summary of the GO event, every starter except Popplio is shiny. Lmao
Todays hunt finally got me meltan to my shiny livingdex with my own OTs, and got a second copy for melmetal too.also a random Venipede decided to say hiI know I know>GOToo bad theyre stuck forever in Ultra Balls instead of Luxury but oh well, sometimes you just have to admit defeat
>>56093149How likely is meltan to be shiny?
>>56092932>Removing the horrible grind but still leaving it somewhat of a choreNot much more they could do to improve it?
>before mark charm>dozens of cool personality marks on my shinies>after mark charm>0 marks on my shiniesnice
>>56093167Got the first one as literally my first spawn, the other one was nearly half an hour later, seems to have a relatively low ratio on top of how the Meltan Box works that is:>1 Box lasts for an hour>1 Meltan spawns every 9 seconds>Only can open a bex every 7 days (or 3 for the duration of the anniversary)Keep in mind Meltan is shiny locked regularly and this is like its second shiny run since it was launched all these years ago
>>56093167https://p337.info/pokemongo/pages/shiny-chance-calculator/Assume it's from crowd-sourced numbers, but this site says 1/60
>>56093198Nice
FINE I'll play your stupid game GO but don't expect me to enjoy or to play it after the event is over
>>56091680ok you got me, but i work from home and hate going outside. Can i still get my shiny cum?
>>56093327You dont need to walk at all for it.
>>56093327Actually you can, the Meltan Box will keep spawning them in your location for 60 minutes without moving from place to place
Is OP going to ask for an image for the next thread?
>>56093508no, we going text only in 2024
>>56093340>>56093335so just open the box until I find a shiny then? Very well
>>56093570Yeah, almost took me the entire timer but I got one right now. So I can confirm all you need to do is open the box
Well, just got my second shiny meltan. Anyone know the odds for the starters that are boosted during the event?
>>56093717Forgot pic
For those that don't know or are too new in this thread Please post or link to a picture of a shiny you recently caught or obtained so that I may use it as the OP for the New thread. As Always first come first served and I will try not to do repeats.>>56093508I am, Do you have one in mind anon?
>>56093739Nope, I was the one that gave you that last image, so someone else should do it this time
>>56093739Use this >>56071357
>>56093739Well I guess I'll pick the shiny for the OP then. New thread coming up.
>>56093739Hold your horses, just got this fucker
>>56093043Yeah, no posting furry porn or fetish porn images. doesn't say anything about no talking about having sexual relations with Pokémon. Fuck off to discord with the rest your kind, you're not fit to handle this place.
>>56093119>>56093134But you are mad, the fact NoA utterly gutted the folk tale just proves THEY understood what Game Freak meant to boot (hence the hamfisted bowdlerisation to cover it).
>>56094107And I caught it. Thank fuck for that, if I'd have failed that after 30k+ resets I'd have been out the window
>>56094171whats next for the square man?
>>56094107Great give me a second boss.
>>56094155>>56094165It's genuinely funny how legit mentally ill subhumans like you are, and how you go totally ape shit when people go against your safe space.It's also hilarious how you didn't even read what you posted, and you're so desperate for any validation for your mental illness that you will say and do anything.>reee!!! ur mad!!Hey, !Akemi.
