Gible editionprevious >>58608671
Hippowdon genocide
What the FUCK, my Shiny Skarmory just despawned. I went to get the ball that I wanted for it and when I came back it was no longer shiny.
>>58627707change the day or something
>>58627707It won’t despawn. Only Pokémon that can flee or fly away do that
>>58627707They dont spawn in the rain or (i think) when it's foggy. Same thing happened to me, and it reappeared when the sun was out.
>>58627688>PicI like the view, although I'm not referring to the Gible.
>>58627688>doing bench resetting for 4 hours>one male eevee and one female eevee>female ralts after zone 20 cucked me with male gardevoirGreat day. Now going after gible. Surely it will be quicker than chespin hunting?
Okay finally something that isn’t a gay hippo
>>58627773congrats on your gay piss furry
8 charmanders in.No big un' yet.
>>58627790Fuck off, boy hugger. Shiny Lucario kicks ass.
>>58627800literally the 2nd most forced shillmon next to fucking charizard and it's easily the ugliest shiny in the game, cope seethe and mald
>>58627792How may hippos, dragledgewhatever and malamars have you found
>says the child seething and malding lucario exists and is more popular with kids than (Her) favourite>>58627773I also got a shiny doggo dude. Gonna use it for the DLC with its new mega evo.
>says the child that thinks lucario's shiny is good and it isn't a forced shillmoncope
Tried out that faux-wonder-trade code for shiny exchanging and pleasantly surprised with the resultsNothing I really "wanted" but also I was just looking to get rid of bulk anyway. If someone getting a shiny Noivern for a Fletching or whatever makes them happy so be it
Okay
Finally on the last box for Battle Tower ribbons but now I have like 4 more XXL shinies to do from the Go event loool
>>58627821What’s the code?
>>586278120
>>58627804Nothing wrong with being a shillmon. They have to exist just like some people will always be more handsome and richer than others.
I wish the park ball continued being a thing. There's a lot of yellow mons and yellow shinies that would look good paired with it
>>58627903Level is my pick for yellow buddies
>>586278761201 1968Masuda's birthday
>>58627903Uh??? Pokemon caught with that ball never keep it
>>58627912I usually do level ball too or luxury if there's enough black on the mon>>58627915That's why I'm saying I wish it stayed being a thing. Like an actual ball that can be used/bought
>>58627919>That's why I'm saying I wish it stayed being a thing. Like an actual ball that can be used/boughtIt would be difficult to justify its existence without the parkpal.
What’s the optimal team to run through infinite league? I need over 800 battles apparently to get the shiny charm
>>58627931Dragonite with good moves (extremespeed, earthquake, fire punch, and dragon rush is what I used) is kind of the meta, but really whatever you like using. It's going to be a slog regardless, especially if you go full autism and get like sixty fights a night.Just get a team you use and knuckle down.
Day 6 of reclaiming Giratina: made it to 6000 SRs and still no luck...I swear Giratina is punishing me for killing it...at least I got my Dreepy today so it's something
>>58627998Dreepy gaaang
>did the extra spawns for zone 20>got shiny hippowdon in less than 2 minutesI guess I deserve it
>>58627893They really didn't need to. It didn't need a second mega just like charizard doesn't need a 2nd or third.
>>58628075I like the phy/spec megas.At some point we must cope with the fact that Charmanders are prolific breeders and invasive species in a great many regions.
>>58627773
>>58628070You can optimize the hunt so you never see the wrong shiny and get 1000+ Charmander encounters per hour.
>>58628075I mean I agree. I dont think anyone would disagree but Im very neutral towards everything. I have favorite mons that are giga shillmons and I have favs that are unpopular. Favoritism exists everywhere and seething about it isnt going to change anything. In the end, im glad more mons besides zard and mewtwo are getting megas. At least it doesnt make those two stand out as much and Im kinda curious if the new mega will keep the x/y design split of the gen 6 ones or if they will be some new weird thing
>>58628124desu as much as i hate the charizard shilling, I'm pretty disappointed we didn't get Zard Z or Mewtwo Z.
>>58628263What would Zard Z even be? A Mewtwo Z would be some toxic shit like Psychic and Fairy.
>>58627804Eh. Regular Shiny Lucario definitely looks like it was designed with Cynthia in mind. It's Mega on the other hand is definitely hideous as fuck. The snot green needs to stop.
Trying for Furfrou and Inkay in W11 is hell.
>trying to give away my shinies to randoms online so I can free up box space>keep getting pokemon i don't want to deleteExpand the boxes already.
>>58628439>Expand the boxes already.lolthe best you'll get is home compatibility
>>58628444Subscriptions were a mistake. Give me Pokemon Box again.
How far do you need to walk away to respawn/respawn for shiny/alpha hunting?
>>58628475like 70 m

What's a solid moveset for Pikachu to cheese the fuck out of shit in Ranked?
Do Alphas have a greater spawn distance than normal Pokemon? I can't see a pokemon spawning sometimes, but when it's Alpha I can see it spawning.
Are you guys "cheesing" your hunts, or doing them the Old Fashioned Way?I've always felt the grind is more satisfying doing it by hand, but seeing people with boxes upon boxes of cheesed shinies / shalphas is a little deflating lol
>>58628761cheesed? Man, every hunt method is different. Did you consider the pokeradar as cheese? Sandwiches?
>>58628761There's layers to what you're saying. Even hunting in this game where you can see more than one pokemon at once could be cheesing. Having the shiny charm is cheesing. Hunting after gen 5 is cheesing. Placing worth on anyone else's shiny pokemon is dumb.
>>58628547Lightball item, volt tackle, thunderbolt, discharge, charge.
>caught shiny rioluwhat do?
>>58628902evolve
>>58628902Depends on if you like it or Lucario more. If you like it better as Riolu give it an eviolite.
Got Bois his GF lfgggg
>>58628916Bois and Gurls
>>58628902don't evolve it. lucario is way more common and you might find one anyway
>Use Spawn overload trick in Zone 8 and fine alpha shiny Gible in 5 minutes>Use Spawn overload trick in zone 20 snd find shiny Charmander in 2 minutes>repeat overload trick to find shiny Lucario>4 hours later>Shiny Hoopowdon>Shiny Alpha Raichu (from center)>Shiny Tepig>2 more shiny charmanders>random shalpha ScraftyIs Lucario shiny locked or something? Wtf is going on? Anyone have any tips? I wanted to use a shiny one for the DLC.
>>58627720>>58627712>>58627722It's actually fucking gone. I tried all sorts of weather and daytime combinations to make sure that GF's brilliant coding doesn't spawn in different ones depending on the day/weather but nope, I'm only getting non-shiny. I didn't fight it or anything, I just left to do some online stuff and came back. I even took a screenshot so I know it was there.I'd be really mad if I had been hunting it but what the fuck.
>>58629185qrd on the gible
>>58629208>qrdYea man, i dont know what that means
>>58629230quick run down
>>58629236>quick run downUmm...its male, Shiny, big, 3IV's. Someone literally used the pic i posted if it ad the OP for this general.
Caught everyone in Wild Zone 19. Trying to find a Shiny Alpha Eevee. Any tips? Don't see any benches so I'm expecting a 50-70
>>58629253holy autism
Got a Love Ball for my 69th Reward Match victory.
>>58629361Fast Travel reset. It spawns close to the gate.
>>58629368Holy vagueness
I got a alpha skarmory in a pokeball and a shiny lion trying to get a shiny bird.I'm not into this
>>58629888sucks for youuuu lolololololololololololol
what am I supposed to use 150 rare candy on?
>>58630024level evolution pokemon that you dont care about
>>58630024Magikarp
>>58630024Whoops wrong thread hehe
If you're ever benching in zone 18 for Fennekin, you can look at the Eevee first since a shiny Fennekin has a longer draw distance. You can see it on your way back to the bench and you don't need to up to the barrier to see.
>>58630080the fuck are you talking about?you can't see eevee from the bench where you reset fennekin. You have to go up the ladder to see it
>10 Shiny Pumpkaboos>All mediumIt's never going to end innit?
>>58630114just call her pretty
>>58630111Yeah. When you go up and check, the shiny Fennekin will also be visible from up the ladder.
So it's shiny hunting recommended after finishing the game?I wanted to hunt a shiny riolu and I'm at the part just before the first three rouge mega evolutions
I already regret starting the Chespin hunt.
>>58630424hate this rabbit, Wish Azumarill, Cinderace and Wigglytuff got in the game, I can't believe none of them got a mega
do I have to wait til 50 for the shiny charm to start this?
>>58629208You can use the spawn overload glitch with alpha Drilbur and force up to 3 Gible holes
>>586304247th, first alpha.
>>58630520If you're fine with higher odds (1/4096) instead of roughly (1/1024) you can shiny hunt whenever. Just pull up a bench, fast travel to a zone or run within 50m of a spawn then run 70m away, kill a pokemon save right before it respawns and reset or even revive a bunch of fossils and reset your game if they don't sparkle.
>>58630555>right before it respawnshow do you know that
>>58630766>how do you know thatnta but if you kill a pokemon, it usually respawn in 1 or 2 minutes so you kill, use a cronometer and save like 5 secs before it respawn or less and then you close the game and open it again
It's exciting to leave a turbo controller on overnight or while at work.
>>58629194if you're talking about online stuff in game, it's not the first time I read about someone having a shiny disappear after going for a quick couple of online battles, might want to make sure you save before going online, or catching before
>>58631206no it isn't but you do you
does anyone know if the alpha pokemon spawns from mabel's request before xerneas are shiny locked? i want to try and hunt the alpha steelix there in area 3 if i can
>>58631280Ok, so it is exciting, got it.
>>58631301I've heard they are.
Do you actually have to walk into 17 for the game to reroll the holes, or is just warping to it good enough?
>>58631544if they are within 50m of the fly point then you don't need to go inside
Took 10 rabbits but finally found this little gremlin.
>>58631301They are confirmed shiny locked. People have rerolled steelix for days with no shiny reports.
>>58631569Did a victory lap in 8 and this fella popped up.
Is it true that benching doesn't work for pokemon 10m above the bench? I spent 11 hours resetting for a mawile in zone 17 and ended up with nothing to show for it beside some pyroars and 2 gastly.
>>58631671Yes and Zone 17 doesn't have any bench on roof either.
>>58631671If you don't mind it not being an alpha, zone 10 is much better for Mawile.
>>58631712fug>>58631724I was debating zone 9 but tried 17 because I did want an alpha but I supose i'll have to pray for luck in zone 9
What's the strat for hunting a shiny skarmory? I want one because I find gold to be a rather hideous color and it's mega in shiny are just it's regular colors. These fucking lions seem like they may be a hindrance, perhaps now this is a good time to train up Zygarde to one tap these fuckers every time they respawn
Is there any moment in the game where there is some kind of shiny lock for every Pokémon? I have to go back to the hotel to fight the electric type idol girl but first I wanted to do some shiny hunt. 20 hours passed and no Staryu or Slowpoke, no Drilbur, nothing!!! I had a good run, 26 shinys (with some harder shinys like Ralts and Gible) but now I just can't get any. Do the game Shiny locks entirely at this point or something?
>>58631883I only know about the mareeps in zone 1 and the alpha pokemon from the xerneas mission are shiny locked
>>58629185I've gotten 5 Lucario and one of everything else from that area
>>58631872im hunting one right now using the battle zone warp. if you keep reseting the night you will eventually get one that is right at the far gate by the pyroar and skarmory
>>58631942once you get that gate do you just keep going back and forth til the skarmory shines ? What happens if you're fighting it and the night runs out before you capture it?
>>58631712>>58631724well, got a shinny, but it wasn't alpha
>>58631946Shiny doesn't despawn with day/night cycle unless it's time or weather specific pokemon. It's why bench resetting is a thing.Just save your game before you fight/catch the shiny in case you mess up and lost the shiny.
>>58631975noted, I'll probably use regular pokeballs, ballism is fucking bullshit in this game it was more fair in paldea where I could gamble on the machine for more of them
>>58628766>>58628789That's all fair. I mostly mean using macros on modded controllers, or hooking your controller up to your rosetoy so it moves the joystick for benching
How was everyone's weekend? Im pretty satisfied with my haul. Especially a Shalpha Starmie I plan on using once Champions get dropped.
>>586323658 dinos in, still no alpha. Looking to get more fossils to decrease the amount of resets. Between this and getting my shiny alpha Beldum in a Heavy Ball, I've really chosen the worst things to get first.
>>58632407How many are you doing at a time? Are you at least idling?
>>58632409180 and yes. I bought as many as I could doing the infinite royale 20 times and getting to rank A in both seasons.
I almost going insane trying to hatch a shiny Ralts in EmeraldI have been trying almost an entire year. I haven't even played other gba games because I feel like I am missing an opportunity to get it
>>58632613that's a really hard hunthow many eggs do you open per day? are you skipping frames?
>>58632618No hacks or the like Only the gba, the cartridge and two gardervoirs at the daycare and a slugma on the bike
>>58632622>No hacks or the likeyou don't need to hack to skip framesyou can use the battle recorder ingame to skip frames since when you watch a video, the game skip to the frame when the video got recorded
>decide to start hunting shinies>pokemon youtubersAbsolutely exhausting. My ten year old brain doesn't want to listen to "SO NOW YOU'RE GONNA WANNA GO AHEAD AND JUST SIMPLY LITERALLY DO THIS" on every single step.
>>58632626I am at the beginning (arrived at the daycare) so I can't. Like an autist I want to raise a shiny from the beginning and do the story with them
>>58632641oh okay, that makes senseyou say you've been trying for a whole year but do you perhaps know how many eggs have you open?I've seen other shiny hunters get shiny from eggs in emerald and somehow they don't spend this much time on it
>>58630111This is what I mean btw.
>>58632833well, if someone is going for fennekin, wouldn't it be quicker if they just check the fennekin from outside the wall of the zone instead of climbing the ladder?
>>58632842Yeah. I haven't bothered to catch the most other shinies in the area anymore, but Eevees are rarer so I check them first.
How the fuck do you keep these bastards interested in you. Taunt doesn't fucking work they all run away and reset back to their spawn location.
>>58632613>I have been trying almost an entire year.No way are you this unlucky lol
Fucking finally, after 15 days and 29 alpha shinies I finally managed to get a fucking turtle. I got 3 totodiles, 2 chikoritas (1 alpha) and 2 bulbasaurs just to get ONE fucking turtle.And 2 box load of squids, algae, roses, birds and onaholes.
>>58633147>3 totodiles
>>58633147You want a mawile for a bulbasaur?
Forgot how expensive EV training is award
>doing soft reset method for fenniken on the roof>all working fine>one random soft reset I respawn outside the gate of area 18 instead of my saved spot>definitely didn't autosave, even if it did I should be literally anywhere that isn't the gatefront>It's not the fast travel entrance so I didn't mindlessly fast travel there or somethingAnyone know what might have happened?
>>58633253you get showered in money if you get at least 2nd in online ranked
>>58628858What would be a good EV spread? And no Dig or Iron Tail?
>>58633344Not that anon, discharge isn't good on pikachu. Just go full physical with dig/iron tail/volt tackle and maybe charge. I don't think pika gets boosting moves but charge will make volt tackle hit harder.
Random question but does anyone know what causes the Pokedex to revert from using the shiny icon for Pokemon?I open it and set some Pokemon to show the shiny, then after a while I open it again and some, but not all, have reverted to using the regular icon instead.For example here I had Gengar and Altaria to use the shiny icon, but for some reason they randomly reverted to the non-shiny one.
>>58627688Screw it that Shiny hunting, wasting several hours just to catch a Pokemon with different color.Just call Berichan and ask for some most perfect Shiny Pokémon.
https://youtu.be/75r0nQu-hMs?si=XJ1gexZht0Wu9RKp summoning shiny totodile
>>58633796ESLs aren't welcome
>>58633831
>>58633292Wrong game. Just spent all my dynite ore to get armor ore to get watts to get random shit to sell :|
I am literally cursed with female shinies lol, my violet game was a legit 80-20 balance of female to male shines and now my first ZA shiny is a female tyrunt idk what my energy field does to pokemon games but it manipulates the rng to shower me with women pokemon
>>58633465I think it shows the look of the most recently caught Pokemon. I might be wrong.
took 3400 resets but i finally have every shiny mega available in Z-A
>>58634025Nice now you can finally start playing the game
>>58633796There are like 4 different discord servers with bots that can make custom Pokemon for ZA and it automatically gives it your trainer's PID, SID, and name. It's literally as if you caught the fucker in your own game personally. Fuck Berichan
First shiny while EV training and hoping for a sunny mark. Maractus with nothing.
I ran into the fucking chinese cheaterBut he wasn't cheating nowHe had the consumate gamer title, which requires you to win 50 matches (for the gold title) without any of your pokemon fainting the entire matchSo the dude cheated to get the title, basically
>>58634821Unironically the most chinese thing to cheat for lol
people hunting for fennekin be like
>>58635049Where’s Kakuna, Trubbish, and Eevee?
>>58635049lol. Artist?>>58635057Don't forget Pidgey, Mawile and Gastly.
>shiny hunting goomy>get a shiny alert>pidgey on a railingVery epic. I did need a third shiny pidgey.
For BW2, what's a good shiny hunt for someone who hasn't hunted in gen 5 to get started?I'm a couple of dex slots away from the charm, so I'm looking for something to do to capitalize on thatI really hope the answer isn't just audino
>just want shiny alpha weepinbell>every fucking vivlion is shiny at this point
>>58635213I dont understand. It’s all grass/water/cave/fishing encounters unless you’re doing a static, just pick something you like? The only thing that can be different is the double encounters in the tall grass.
>>58635244I guess radar chaining has rotted my brain
I'm convinced at this point that pichu can't spawn shiny from lab warpingI've been at this shit nearly all day and only have a bunch of mareep to show for it
Got two shiny female haunter if anyone got a good trade for em. One in a moon ball one in a dusk ball
>>58635218Just bench reset dude. I've got a whole squad of them while hunting Scyther. There's a battlefield south of area 13. There are a few benches by it that will put you just shy of 50 meters away from the spawn. Just do that idle for a few hours.
Anyone have a shiny alpha Glaceon for trade? I've been trying to get one for a fucking while now.
Finally got my cool bug girl, done with zone 11-13, time to play more of the game!
Any of you familiar with fishing in swsh? I'm wondering if its actually okay to run from the things I fished up. The chain only breaks if I fail to hook something right?
>>58636175no
>>58636175I don't think there's chaining in shswonly that thing that you need to keep killing the same pokemon over and over again
>>58636254 there is but its works in the most retarded way possible
>>58632365I'm not hunting a lot, but got a shiny Beedrill and Spinarak.
>>58631992Remember the gacha ball game came with the second dlc on Paldea, we might get something similar with the dlc on this one too
>>58636259the brilliant aura thing, right?
>>58633147I still dont know how people do this one and get some results. I've been at it for some days now, and I got only one shiny Dragalge and no alphas at all.
>>58636266Yeah, chain fishing 20 in a row will max out your odds of encountering a brilliant pokemon, which has higher odds of a shiny. It's not crazy like actual chain fishing in gen 6 but its still a higher chance of finding a shiny
I wish Leafon's shiny was more distinctcool full odds
>>58636281Leafeon’s head always looked fucked. Like some pixar baby head
Found a random full odds pink bunny girl… anyone want it? I already have one
Second shiny from the Dry Mark/EV maxing quest. This one’s got the Uncommon mark, so the sunny grind continues.
looking for one more pansear and I'm up to 7 pansage and 3 panpour in the meantime, distribution is some bs
>>58636456Desire sensor hates you.
Is shiny hunting in za actually faster than some of the other methods in recent games or are people just autistic about it in za because it's new?
>>58636551Yes (highest base odds with the charm, lower than stuff like radar or sandwich/outbreak boosts) but also it can be done afk, saves the shiny so you can’t miss it, and plays the noise so it’s harder to miss in the first place.
>>58636551It's slower than SV for sure, but you don't have to pay attention and can reset endlessly and check 30mins later and see if you hit anything instead of hunting for 30mins with a sandwich and playing spot the different colored pixels.
Currently on three shiny mawiles, no alpha shiny so far.I've given up on automation and i'm using a hairband to auto run, and manually turning and dodge rolling to maintain the run speed>as i'm, tying this, a 4th shiny appears>its not alphaAny good Pokémon centric documentaries/lore theory videos anyone recommend watching while continue the marathon run? I wanna stay in the mood.
>>58636665I couldn’t recommend any off hand but youtube keeps shilling me a million. I prefer the retarded challenge videos. There was a good ‘fewest steps to beat emerald’ one and I enjoyed the smant run and bun series
>>58636669kek, i'm the opposite and hate challenge "can I beat gaem, but hard?!?!" videos. oh well.I'll just watch vtubers reacting to memes, good luck on your hunts.
>>58636665watch heatah fajita on archives
>>58636665https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx9U_pL0YU4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvyXNsCpPjkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss78YGPaShE
>>58636691The ‘this epicly hard nuzlocke is sooo tough’ ones are mostly bad. I enjoy them if there’s some sort of arc or something to get invested in, or at least the player has some personality beyond just doing retarded calcs. I guess that’s why I prefer Jrose videos to most other solo challenge guys. 8 more guys left to EV train and the friendship grind begins, no dry boys in sight. Good luck with your big Mawile.
>>58636701ty>>58636700i'll give these a watch, thanks.
>>58636665What sizes are the mawile
>>58636724All medium. If I got a shiny small or XS, I'd give up on the alpha because it's peak cute.
This is probably a retarded question but breeding as a concept just doesn't exist in ZA right?
>>58636754Nope.
>>58636754nope, there's no breeding in AZ
>>58636754The legends games in general seem like they're going to forego breeding.Not sure why, it's not like it would be hard to add or be detrimental to the games or anything, but they're two for two without breeding.
>>58627764Finally got a male gible via fast travel spamming. After over two boxes worth of other shinies. I got a shiny XL drilbur that isn't alpha, alpha numel and alpha krokorok.
>>58636728I already got an alpha shiny but yea I like normal mawile colors enough to get a XS but caught with a bad ball and now I used up a apriball trying to find another that turned out to be S sized. No clue why they didn’t have the easy identification like SV added in its dlc.
>>58636790I love my XS flareon>another shiny mawile>not alpha>I can see a shiny kakuna across the road I can't be bothered with
Alright, got my second shiny Gible, this time through the 6 holes exploit. I'll leave my shit running for a bit tonight see if I can land an Alpha Shiny.
My wife
>>58636665There's a guaranteed alpha near a bench in the shitty pyroar area isn't there?I'm trying to get a shiny mawile that isn't medium myself
Welp, I've gotten every Shiny I wanted to, what now?I wonder if they'll let us shiny hunt for Gimmighoul in the DLC.
Why couldn't Shiny Garchomp just have the same colors as shiny Gibble...
>>58637082Benches don't work for vertical distances over 10 I think
>>58636382congrats!
>>58637247I honestly think Shiny Garchomp looks cool with the right lighting.I noticed when it gets dark in game Garchomp almost appears Dark Grey with an Orange under side, if it appeared like that in all lighting then it would be great.
>>58637247Maybe shiny mega garchomp Z will look cool
>>58637255It's just waaaay too similar. Which is a shame for a mon with do much color. Adding insult to injury is that the shiny looks more desaturated than normal.Just using the gibble colors would have been great. And I also like that one rendition you find when you Google "shiny Garchomp" that's red and cyan. Tho maybe hot pink and white would have been even better.
>>58637244>MPMega Pokedex? Handful of out-of-placers if so
>>58637372iM PortantI've been doing that since the GBA games
Which ball for a shiny alpha Sableye anons?
>>58637528Nest or Dusk
>>58637273I've got an unevolved shiny gible just waiting for this. Whoever made the regular shiny mega garchomp pink and designed it is probably the same person who design mega sharpedo too. Awful
>>58637546got it with nest, thanks!
>>58637250No!!
>>58627688Gible is so adorable !! He could bite me, and I wouldn't mind
The bench method is kinda absurd when you get the shiny charm, and it's nice that it doesn't kill your buttons if you have turbo on the controller.
I wish Sword and Shield had a ghost increase ability/item, like Storm Drain or Harvest
Got a shiny Chespin in like 10 mins after setting up the spawns. The only one left now for the 3 Kalos starters is the female Fennekin, which will probably take a long time.
Another uncommon, this time Maractus.
>>58637990Good luck friend
>>58638016thank you!

I'VE SEEN 4 FUCKING MALE SHINY FENNEKINJUST GIVE ME A FUCKING FEMALE
So I was looking into friendship in Sword and Shield, and it seems like everything besides berries disappears after 180 except cooking and camping. Well I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise after I didn’t get anyone to best friends after riding around and doing everything else. Kind of an insane decision, though. I don’t think that’s true in any other game, or maybe it is and I’ve been living a lie and being carried by other friendship mechanics like picnics giving me more friendship than I had thought they would.
Size comp for Mawile for those that need it.
>>58638919imagine
>>58638919>XS is BARELY smaller than S did you eyeball this? Or did you catch all the Mawile until you got one?
>>58638974nta but I did the same thing with mawile and just eyed it
>>58638974Eyeball’d the smallest one in the group in wild zone 9
>>58637082yep, spent 11 hours there benching only to find out >>58637248currently at 7 shinies on zone 9 roof, no shalpha
I named my shiny diglett “Bludolph”
This fucking Tepig just ain’t appearing
>>58637508Ahh, I see. Figured it meant Mega Pokedex, on account of the boxes being almost entirely filled by the current and upcoming Mega dex lmao
>>58638912I went through 15 shiny male popplio before finding a single female in ID's terrarium. Posting 'Phox to drum you up some luck.
I guess I'll have two or three full teams of Salamance/Bagon when I finish this. 7 hours and only one male Fennekin...
Taking offers for shit on this list.Anything with the red pokeball icon I'll trade another shiny for it.If there's a trade OR bottle cap I'll do either.The Eevee was caught in a Fast Ball so if you have Balltism for some reason, you can have that and turn it into a Flareon.Otherwise just take a stab and ask, this is more like a loose list.
Anyone here up to help me evolve my Shiny Onix? If you've got a trade evo, now would be a good time.
>>58639440I'll help you anon. I'll throw something your way. Use this post number for room.
>>58639443Thanks mate. Always there to help, huh?
>>58639448There you go. Ben dover and take the Steelix. :)And I try to be, yeah.
>>58639450>Ben doverYou cheeky bastard...
>>58639430Trading these for the next 30 minutes then it's bed time.
>>58639430XS sized shiny Starmie or an alpha shiny female Meowstic for Pikachu?
>>58639488I'll take the Starmie. Use this post number for trade
>>58639488Thanks anon,.
>>586394305 minutes. I'll come back around with this later tomorrow.
>>58639402I wish delphox was this cute.
Shalpha Pika will be mine. Whatever it takes.
>having trouble finding shiny eevees last week>found 3 off them in less than 12 hours
still quietly hunting friend safari for that azumaril....
You can hunt Litwick in the sewer before you find Gwynn right?
>>58640167yeah
My ribbon quest continues. With the discovery I can’t increase happiness beyond 160 from running around, I’ve shifted to hunting the curry mark while I raise happiness. After moving everyone that can go into SV where it’s faster and easier to raise happiness for the same ribbon, I’m left with just under two boxes to camp with. I think the curry mark is 100% on anything that shows up, so that’s at least nice. Will probably have less encounters than the other two mark hunts though it’s full odds and related to the sociability so very unlikely anything will show up let alone shine.
>got my turbo and macro controller today in the mail>was just trying to figure out how to connect it to the switch and get the hang of it>random shiny Bunnelby that i didnt hear because i had the sound down but noticed the sparkles and looked offWell, alrighty then. Im getting my 1000 wins tonight for that charm.

>>58640778Heart cause it fights with kindness :)
>>58642945meant for >>58642606
I got a shiny Snom after 1005 encounters in Shield. I was just about to stop playing too!now I only need one more shiny and I can finally finish the game lol
After 3,383 resets, I finally nabbed Shiny Arceus. Started this hunt around the time Z-A released, just casually resetting on my OLED switch. Easy breezy, but that doesn't diminish how excited I am to finally get this shiny. Playing on the latest firmware, and I didn't have any issues with BDSP crashing, but I was anxious the whole time. I'll never trust that mess of a game. It wasn't over until I saved twice and evacuated it to Home.
>>58643334wtf is that thing in the back?congrats btwsuch a nice gesture for GF to not shiny lock it
>>58643334Almighty Sinnoh, I welcome you to the somewhat-mighty Paldea. You're a spaniard now.
>>58643290You want one of my male maracti? lol
>>58643343Be sure to take him to Hisui to get the olden times title! then make him a special attacker to get easy wins on the VGC ladder
>>58643340The rack equipment? Bottom is a pattern generator for NTSC broadcast test patterns, like the colour bars. Bottom is a AVG/VWG generator, for adding time codes to analog video
>>58643347nah, that's fine anonI'm one of those guys that only uses shinies that I hunted myself
>>58643367oh so it's video equipment? I thought it was for audio/music
>>58642606I caught mine in a Luxury Ball, but Premier and Heavy are also great choices
Bruh
>>58643470Oh, you're so fucked
>>58643368Based
>>58643470do what I did and leave it there until you get what you wantunless you want to get multiple of those things
>>58643474i really am
>>58643470I stopped catching them because I couldn't get rid of them fast enough.
>>58643470So no Fennekin today ?
>>58643546No :(
>>58643516thought I could be cool guy and give my extras ways. everyone and their grandma is having the same problem. eventually everyone will have enough of the extras.
I think my game is bugged, because I cannot spawn a shiny manectric or electrike I've reset in the lab tons of times, and done the bench reset in area 9 for so many hours. I've got like 300 hours in this game, and this line is always adjacent to the thing I'm hunting, and yet they just never shine. I spawned the noivern in the lab as shiny like six times at this point, and I've got three shinies of the metagross line in various balls now, and houndoom/houndor, but not the electric doggo. Feels wrong.
>>58643629the game is sensing you want a shiny electrike so it doesn't wanna give you one
>>58643629don't give up hope. beat the desire sensors.BUTive had a few spawn on me while searching for the frog. you want one or two? this is easy way for you. hard way is more rewarding tho
>>58643352Thanks for the heads up. He's officially a golden oldie
>>58643653They're prob not in the correct ball anyways but thank you >>58643648I'm saying when I wasn't even hunting it there should've been one to spawn, I've spent a lot of time directly next to spawns for it.
>>58643669yeah they are in a fast ball. level ball or fast ball be better for it. good luck tho.
>>58643678maybe the normal colors but I'd prefer luxury to match the black.Can't stand quick ball even if matches all the electric types.
>>58643680meant to say quickball in my post but you knew.well if I run into another one i'll think about ya
why is everything shiny locked in SV?what can you even hunt in those games?god I fucking hate GF so much...
>>58643730Every static encounter is locked. That includes story legendaries, the Snacksworth legends, and Gimmighoul
>>58639430I'm back here for trades if anyone is interested.
>>58643730shiny locks are one of the worst additions to this series
>>58639430what kind of tism is this
>>58643730You can hunt sooo much in that, just not legendaries
>>58643730You can hunt everything but legendaries, just like in pretty much every game. Since Gen five. Though you can shiny hunt a handful of legendaries in Gen 8, if you paid for the dlc and want to spend 15 minutes a run in the caves.
>>58643884The tism with too much time on my hands. Such is a shiny hunter/.
>>58643894gen 5 only had the story dragons shiny locked and victiniafter gen 5, GF just went full FUCK YOU to shiny hunters for some reason
>>58643894>handful
>>58643902That is a good point, that it was mostly just the box legendaries in Gen five, but it started in Gen five.
>>58643911iirc gen 6 was when the cancer really started but alola v2 did pretty well
>>58643902Shiny lock started with Gen 5 because that's. when "Shiny" became an official term, and TPC started leveraging shiny Pokemon for promotions and merchandise. It started right before BW with the Zoroark movie event. Shiny locks started when "Shiny" became a canonized proper noun and a marketing slogan. Interestingly, all languages except for English are standardized, they all translate to "alternate colour", and that term is distinct from how they translated the neo-era TCG "Shiny". English is the only language to break from the trend and hold onto this vestigial WotC translation.
>>58644021Shiny started in gen 4 with Milotic, but yeah
>6 Shiny Gibles so far>none are Alpha>all are neutral naturesHmm
>>58644080I'm in the same boat, 12 shiny mawile, one even is XL. But no shiny Alpha
>trying to get shiny froakie>an hour later, have a shiny alpha Amphy and shiny regular Flaffy next to each otherFuck. Atleast if i keep them there, Froakie has a better chance of being shiny with less things that need to respawn.
>shiny alpha beldum spawns before manectric or elecktrike man
>>58644631If you're looking for alpha Manectric, why not just bench the static alpha Manectric on the roof of zone 9?This asshole is constantly harassing me
>>58643343curious how you got it, I assume bdsp with arceus clear save? how bad was the catch or was it just a masterball on sight?
>>58644953>curious how you got itnta but yeah that's the only legitimately way to get shiny arceus
Can you reset for rooftop shinies by walking by on the road nearby/ground floor?or does it have the same elevation problem that benches do?
>>58644953Yeah, I beat PLA when it came out but never bothered to finish BD. Only finished it recently to hunt for shiny Arceus. Caught it in a Luxury while asleep, took about 30 balls before it stuck.
I fucking won so hard. This is my dream Shiny Alpha.
