Somebody will be really seething when it's Darkrai Rotation in two weeks...
>>
>>56556984
Doesn’t everyone who wants one here pretty much already have a Darkrai? The dogs are unique since this is the only time you could ever get them with your own OT. Darkrai is available shiny in like 5 games (D, P, Pt, BD, SP), no?
Now once I get the shiny galar birds, it’s over for you niggas.
>>
>>56557052
>Darkrai is available shiny in like 5 games
Sure it is, if you were there for the fomo events or cheat
>>
>>56557075
Oh noo not the heckin activating an event with DNS cheat, really the worst and most insidious of them all. Why won’t someone report these devious villains to /r/pokemon. We need Kamala to clean up these phony pokemon!
>>
>>56557052
DP has the Member Card event built in, but a Darkrai caught this way wouldn't be legal as it was only ever distributed to Platinum. (same goes for Oak's Letter and Shaymin)
>>
Playing SM right now, thinking of SOS chaining for a shiny. If I put a dead synchronize mon on the front does that still count for SOS chaining? Basically not sure if it counts it at battle start, or when the pokemon shows up via the SOS signal for the nature.

I don't give a fuck what anyone says, GO mons are infinitely less soulless than event distributions.
>>
>>56557104
it does for the first RE but every SOS call after needs that pokemon in the active spot. Might as well use the synchronize mon
>>
>>56557236
I see, guess I'll have to level it up a bit then
>>
>>56556770

>unobtainable outside of past event or Go

Speaking of, I'm debating about shiny Galar birds. I have two of the Articuno from the distribution but missed the other two. Go is the only method to get them now, but just a low chance lotto. Should I just try to bargain with people for the other two and hope I don't get obvious genned shit?
>>
>>56557257
>obvious genned
Event pokemon are very hard to NOT gen correctly. Seeing as how they have a static encounter, level, OT, ID, etc.

Just go to one of the many discord servers that have sysbots set up to auto trade people, and give them whatever they ask for.
>>
>>56557257
I've been running 5 accounts in boosted weather for the past 8 days.
I have encountered three Zaps and one Articuno.
I honestly believe your chances in GO are better than finding a legit trade.
>>
>>56557277

Imagine trying to quote Seinfeld while being the actual retard yourself.
You were told it's impossible to screw up event pokemon. You named a non-event pokemon.
>>
>>56558081
Terapagos has set IVs, nature, and location. Please stop being a retard and pretending you’re at all above room temp IQ

You know what it doesn't have? A set TID and OT.

>>56557923

>>56557873
Venusaur, Sceptile, Tsareena, Breloom are the ones that immediately come to mind

Wow, so it should be even easier to gen since any TID/SID will do instead of a set one. Crazy.

>>56559057
Found you. In game name is Pat. Thank you so much. When this is done I'd like to give you something in return for your help.
>>
>>56559064
No problem sure
>>
>>56557102
Doesn't it pass check if it's levelled to 50 and traded to Platinum or something?
>>
>>56559075
Thank you again Julius. I really appreciate this. If you are still on SWSH. Join the trade link code 6509 4321. This is the least I can do for your help.
>>
>>56559076
Not sure if it does or doesn't pass any of GF's transfer checks, but a Pokémon's data does store the exact game version it originates from and it would be easy to filter it out that way.
>>
>>56559087
Thanks and no problem again. Happy hunting.

Got a list of shit from US/UM I need, namely:
>Ultra Beasts
>Gen 5 legendaries
>Gen 6 legendaries
>Poipole x2
>Type: Null X2
Any suggestions on where to start? I don't have the Shiny Charm, but to get that I'd need the gift mons, so I guess one of those?
>>
>>56559198
For some reason I thought the gifts weren’t affected by the charm.
>>
>>56559198
Definitely get the charm for wormholes if possible. And yeah gifts are always full odds.
>>
theres so many pokemon made up of two or more creatures, yet none that can only be “half” shiny

Sword badge quest still going, still on Yamask and just hit 1000 encounters

Today I learned the Pokedex encounter count in SwSh stops at 999. That's really annoying as I wasn't keeping manual track of it.

Good luck. I'm on phase 4 for swablu in Ruby for a loooong time, already got two zangooses and a seedot.

You ARE hunting exclusively BA spawns at this stage, right?
>>
>>56559059
No, retard. Letting it have it's own OT and TID means it's easy for bot traders to advertise with whatever the OT name is. Like what happened with the Terapagos you're talking about.
>>

>>56561931
No, since ultimately I figured that checking all spawns would just be more chances. While that's still true, no auto-counter is really lame so I might switch it up and start only encountering BA Yamasks, and instead racking up encounters for the rest of the things in the route instead.

I am aware that no matter what, non-BA aura mons are still full odds.
>>
>>56563377
You need to KO spawns to get new BA ones. I’m pretty sure the increased BA odds are only on ones spawning after a KO. So it’s best (imo) to enter the area, KO every Yamask in the bottom two gass patches, then bike towards the bridge until they refresh and you can chain again. Running away does not get the higher odds, is my understanding.
>>
Please Dog shine!
>>
>>56560275
I haven't seen a single bird since barely trying so I still don't think that they exist. But good job anon.
>>
If I have a shiny pokemon, would I have higher rates of an offspring being shiny when bred?
Does Scarlet / violet have a wonder trade?
>>
>>56569804
in gen 2 yes, every other game no
SV has wonder trade
>>
Shinies from Arceus and SV just feel way too easy which makes shinies feel unexciting, but since I'm also trying to get new-gen shinies, imposing special rules for what shinies "count" based on generation seems autistic. Wish GF didn't pull this welfare shiny shit, it sucks.
>>
>>56570079
You complain but at least when people see someone with a shiny I don't assume it's hacked anymore.
I've got boxes of shinies I got from the GTS in gen 4 that could be mostly legit but I wouldn't know beside obvious shit from impossible locations.
I go for shinies without a safety net usually so I lost an ultra beast but that keeps the thrill alive when I find them.
>>
Got a couple hunts going currently that I return to off and on when the mood strikes since I usually don't have the patience to continuously hunt for too long at a time.
>SS Suicune - currently at 3305 SRs
>SP Shaymin (no Shiny Charm) - currently at 2440 RAs

Personally, I think some current methods/games boost odds a bit too much, so I try to go full odds when I can, but when I think about stuff like Arceus and the million cutscenes, I can't blame people too much.
>>
>>56570079
the only good shinies from PLA are Alphas.
it sucks legendaries/mythicals arent alphas, not even fucking Arceus THE motherfucking Alpha pokemon
>>
