Only shinies in the first 4 generations count. Gamefreak trivialize it so much now
>>
>>56169959
>Only RNG-able shinies count
>Only shinies from games with full ACE count
>Only 1/64 breeding odds count
The only non-trivialised shinies are Regidrago and Regieleki, with their 1/4096 odds and no workarounds. Otherwise most things are cheese-able. Eventually you'll realise the only thing that matters is the hunts you want to do

I just got a level 50 shiny Articuno from the GTS but it says it's from Johto in the good old days. Is this possible? I thought you could only catch the legendary birds from Kanto in RBY VC versions.
>>
>>56171896
It's a 7 star raid and if I remember correctly you have to beat the game to have access to them or someone will have to invite you to them. Though I could be wrong check out the official event guide for more details.

Thanks man. When someone beats the game and gains access to these raids, do they just plain appear? Or is there anything in particular for this one?

no

just like the alphas in legends they will never return or be relevant in later games
>>
>>56172583
You dub fucking child, they've returned from SS already and given they all but culled ribbon hunting AND they proivide a title like Ribbons, it's safe to say they're the ribbon replacement going forward. The fact they spent the game's lifespan to-date shilling shit with the things in raids SHOULD have alerted you they're going nowhere. So is your petty childish anger actually down to the fact no-one'll have to waste their time, like you wasted hours as a retard autistic kid for alt palettes? I've never seen an 8,000/1 shot come in winner, but I HAVE seen a 5,000/1 shot finish Champions. I only started hunting when they were better odds than a middling team that escaped relegation the year prior got for winning the PL, the year they ended up winning the PL. Because shiny hunting's akin to slots or other spot gambling and playing longer odds is fucking stupid in the long run, house always comes out on top.

I'd understand if there was some fundamental shift in the core, but we both know it's been the same shit state today as back then, it's just easier to get them legit these days. I also feel he missed the bit about the shillmon-centric raids having boosted shiny, to ensure everyone who plays gets a chance to GET a shiny shillmon-centric thingy (because the Eevee raids were standard chance).

Ehh, I wouldn't say that. Ribbons do serve a slightly different purpose from Marks in that they're often used as rewards for great milestones, whereas Marks are mostly random and, barring a few exceptions, can't be manually bestowed upon all Pokemon like ribbons can

>>56173508
I beat it just battling everything in sight, but started playing around with the tools it gives you after while farming MMO's for shinies and there's a lot of items you can throw to attract pokemon to line them for easy backshots, smokes to hide you, etc. Clearing MMO's is my favorite way to shiny hunt, fighting 4 level 87 alpha pokemon at the same time without fainting can be tricky sometimes
>>
>>56170773
yeah, you can still transfer them up gen to gen on emulators. you could get them on an r4 cart or something and trade them to a legit copy of the game, and up the gens from there.

Is it worth it to unlock 6star for HM farming or just get them from 5 star?
>>
>>56176273
Follow up: I read you can just buy a Shiny Power 1 sandwich in the DLC, should I just use that instead?
>>
>>56176290
Depends for what. Outbreaks dont really need anything but the sandwiches give boost to a certain type to spawn which you cant do with the shiny meal.
>>
>>56176273
Depends on your patience, 6 stars are once per day (you can skip ahead your clock to spawn another) and a little harder to cleat than 5 stars but 5 stars are spread out everywhere in the map. If anything your raid target is way more important, for example herba piñatas (Blissey, Cetitan and others) are better targets than say a Dragonite raid and have better drop % in their 6 stars version than their 5 stars versions (just a bit, 3.03% vs 2.54%). Regarding the sandwich, well, I'd say it depends in your target too. If you were looking for a shiny Voltorb in an outbrean then you won't have trouble spotting one while rolling dice with Sparking Power 1's lower odds but say a Charcadet is more annoying so you'd want to boost your chances to the limit in order to not tire yourself while searching.

Lastly, you could just unlock your 5 and 6 raids and join some bot raids with 10 guaranteed Herba drops; not honorable but you can stock Herba batches while they provide this service, at least until Nintendo pulls Switch's online plug in the near future
>>
>>56176398
>>56176303
I see. Sounds like most of the stuff I'm looking for would be ok with only level 1 and outbreaks at least for now

I was bored and your situation immediately made me think of this.

My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 10 years old. I live in the northeast section of Lumiose City, right on Hibernal Avenue, and I am looking for a thicc autistic hex maniac girl friend. I work part time as an employee for the Restaurant Le Wow, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't chain fish, but I occasionally radar hunt. I frequent /shg/, and make sure I get eight shinies a day before bed, no matter what. After having a plate of chicken tendies and doing about twenty minutes of fapping to pokegirls before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a Hoenn baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was given a 7/10 during my last check-up for having too much blood in my urine. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to make a full shiny living form dex. I take care not to trouble myself with competitive battling, like Smogon or VGC, that would cause me to lose shiny hunting time. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to multi in /wfg/, I wouldn't lose to anyone.
