just got this after 2532 REs while hunting for ToxelI didn't want to phase for it... I'm using a static mon too to get more Toxels...
>>58665603That's a nice shiny.
>>58665617yeah, it has a nice color but I don't really like Liepard
>>58665603Going by that name, I think hes gonna die
>>58665619It's really cool in gen 5 when its invincible
Trying to finish the home dex for SwSh to get the shiny Keldeo only through GTS is pure suffering. I guess I'll wait until I buy the game to do it...

>>58665756Baby’s first pokemon experience
is there any place I can bench a dratini/dragonair?I don't want an alpha, so zone 20 is out.
>>58665787https://youtu.be/MjEOzlOXA9Q?si=mCnwLP-j1FYxRWiT&t=375
>>58665787I should mention, I've been running back and forth to respawn it on one of the back buildings behind cafe soleil
>>58665790oh shit, thanks.
Find Groudon
>>58665756retard
>started hunting starters on zone 20 some days ago>first day chikorita appeared>no more shinies until today>it's a fucking chikoritaMy luck stinks.
>benching WZ20 with 5 alpha spawners under the tower>leave it the whole night>only 1 shiny carbink>check the whole zone just in case>random shiny pidgey outsidegetting 20 shiny furfrous is going to take a reallly long tine right?
Can you bench hunt skarmory? I've heard the shiny despawns in rain, but would it if you're quick to reset/not spawn in rainy weather?
>>58665897Bench will only spawn 3 alphas at a time
>>58665859You don't know the half of it brother.I have 8 (Eight) boxes of shinies, not one of them a starter. I am cursed to never get one, and I would trade so many of my shinies for some nice starters, but here we are.
>>58665986you just didn't try hard enoughI mean, if you benched on zone 18, you will eventually get a shiny fennekin
>>58665756 but the originals were non-static, full odds, mon pre-post game mon.
Wasn't looking for this but I guess there are worse Pokemon I could've got for my first shiny alpha.
>>58665910Do you mean 3 Alpha Shiny? Have 6 in the middle of Zone 20. 2 are shiny. Does that mean only 1 more can become Shiny? Was going to let it keep going until all 6 are Shiny.>>58665986What is the purpose of a starter in ZA? Other than for Dex entry, they are constantly recommended against for end-game and ranked.
3rd day bench resetting the square of swirlix and have yet to find a choco doggie
>turbo in and out of abandoned building for staryu>come how and somehow find myself resetting on a benchuh okay
>>58666061Day/night change you turned around.
>>58666052>maleeww
>>58666082I'm confident I'll never get a shiny that has a gender that looks "correct" for it. I got a shiny male Heracross too. Nice and pink. I hate it.
>>58666179there's nothing wrong with a pink male heracross tho
Fuck yes! I got shiny alpha swirlix! Finally! Anyone need to trade evolve? I wanna get this puppy evolved.
>>58665841fuck where is he
>>58666259you need to look at it from above
>>58665756>uses brainless retard exploit to exploit shinies>regrets itTale as old as time, kek. You know you need to release them all and start hunting old skool now, yeah? You'll clearly value your shones more if you work for them.
>>58665904It hides in the rain, it returns after it ends. It's the reverse of Goomy (if you find a shiny Goomy but it stops raining, it'll return when it starts raining again).
any good place to grind for a shiny ralts anons? I kinda want a XS or S gardevoir
>>58666185Do you still need it anon? I kinda need to evolve my Scyther so you could help me as well.
>>58666334Yes I’m still here
>>58666349use this post number then
>>58665756ZA is the first game I shiny hunted more than one pokemon. I've caught like 15 shiny Gastlys near Zone 18 and didn't care for them after the 5th one, but I found my 16th randomly at Zone 3 and I trained it up to use online. It's all in how you look at it.
>>58666361Thanks anon nice shiny scizor and ball
Thanks anon! The shiny Slurpuff looks nice
>>58666329>>58665790
every single japanese fag has Xerneas, Garchomp and Metagross on their team
>>58666546meant to post on the wifi thread... my bad
>>58666557lol what a boob
Having a dry spell since I got my 16th shiny Tyrunt. >>58665841 Oh there it is. Give it back.
>>58666987are you the guy resetting for an alpha shiny tyrunt?
>>58667000Yes, because I hate my life.
>>58667024we all do, bro (still trying to get my shiny giratina back after killing so I hate my life even more)but I wish you good luck on your hunt
>>58666546I had a few matches without the deer last night. It was pretty fun. The stupid pride parade deer really ruins every format it's in.
>>58667035>but I wish you good luck on your huntSame to you, at least I can AFK this. Maybe they'll make fossil Pokemon wild spawns in Mega Dimension, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
>>58667062>Maybe they'll make fossil Pokemon wild spawns in Mega Dimensionseems like they will
is there an optimized method to get shiny charmander? Any videos for that?
>>5866715Papa Jefe has two videos, one where he walks through the overload and an update video that shows which stairs to run back and forth on once you get a decent set of spawns from the overloaded spawners. Both are quite waffley so won't link them directly as someone may have done a better tutorial by now
>>58666082It was born female
>>58667150>>58667176Somehow fucked my quote, my b
Sucks that you can't use the battle zone method for Skarmory until postgame.I'm tired of running back and forth over this bridge.
>>58667062bro, I don't know if your good luck worked but I just got it back!!!!after 8181 SRs and a total of 9494 SRs, Giratina is finally mine!!!I was so fucking nervous during the fight and worried I would fuck it up again somehow...but it's finally over...
>>58667258>an additional two weeks of hunting just to catch it in a dusk ballbro......
>>58667262what, it looks cool in a dusk ball with the effect in gen 4what ball would you have caught it?
>>58667258God it's crazy how much better shiny Giratina looked as a sprite.
>>58667264idk. sorry.
>>58666053The benches will only ever spawn the front row, so 3 alphas at a time. You can manually spawn all 6, no problem, but if you’re just benching and doing nothing else, you will only ever hit the 3 in a row closest to you.
>>58667258Congrats bro, you’re free
Anyone uses shinydex here to track all of their mons? or do you use excel or Home?
>>58667258Congrats man.
>>58667287I have almost all my shinies tracked on excel (and some in a .txt file too) and I've been trying to put them all on shinydex but I've been lazy in doing it
>>58667287Ms paint but that got too big so instead I’ve been using a list I typed on my Ms Paint doc to keep track of what I’m missing instead of what I have and a notepad on my phone to have a copy thats easier to edit
>>58667287I started a new excel sheet for ZA.
>>58667287Always got a Google Sheets file open for my Shiny Living Form Dex. Need that 99% completion marker to push through all the nasty shit just in front of the finish line, like own OT shiny Manaphy and square shiny UBs and Type: Null line
>>58667287>>58667302Shinydex sounds cool>you have to sign up with an approved account from a different site instead of an emailnever mind
>>58667317Does ranger manaphy have your OT or is it something memey like RANGER, ID 002008?
>>58667324It's an egg, believe it's treated as such. Though I'd be so happy to be proven wrong, been putting that off for years
>>58667320what, you don't have a gmail account? I'm just using mine
>>58667324>>58667331it gets your OTI took this pic from a guy who hunted it
>>58667351>>58667331sick. i always assumed it was given a promo one because it feels like a lot of things are. sucks i got rid of all my ds stuff but i guess it's a long term goal until bank dies.
>>58666061You think that's weird?I bench reset on a bench.Came back 6 hours later and found myself at Nurse Joy and all my money was spent on fucking Ultra Balls.
Thoughts on rng maniped shinies?I feel like they're ok because the process itself is pretty interesting to do and the game sees it as legit.
>>58667391I have no problem with them but they aren't in the spirit of the thread imo. Do whatever you want.
>>58667391I think they're cool, USUM basically gives you free eggs with the right calculator, no timing involved. A lot of people here aren't usually fans, but maybe ZA's blatant macro surge will have changed that
I'm fatigued and I don't know what to hunt for next season :skull:
>>58667391I've tried once in gen 4 just out of curiosity and never got it working... I was only successful in emerald because of the broken rngso I'd rather hunt the old and honest way
>>58667404Shiny Crobat
>>58667408I found gen 4 really basic. 5 can be tricky to get the right settings since it seems to flip flop. My only advice would be to not fall for the Blisey meme of only going after perfect stuff. Pick something easy to get to, not 100000 flips away. Gen 7 is probably the coolest, imo. 8 is a bit interesting because you can see how things in the game operate that you normally wouldn't think work that way, but too simple to be fun.>>58667402Honestly, eggs in Ultra don't even feel like rng. It's just a broken system and you're saving the time of hatching a ton for no reason.
>>58667258Tyrunt anon here, goddamn. Congrats to you. Hopefully my luck turns here soon, but a 1/409600 is a lot worse than a 1/8192. It does at least look like there's an alternative with what >>58667146 posted, but I'll keep doing what I have been until then.
>>58667404You ARE going to hunt a XS Female Eevee to snipe Zygarde and Chomp.
>>58667258noice, shiny tina is so cool
>>58667443yeah, yours will be rarer if you do get itagain, I wish good luck bro!
>>58667258good job goonitina anon
>>58665790>swirlix spot>no spritzee spotdamn. I know there is some roof that has like three but its not benchable
>>58667479Spritzee spot would be the bench by the alpha spritzee above the court by 13.
>>58667479There's an alpha spritzee thats benchable with 2 on the other side
>>58667486>>58667488Any options for non alpha? They're just too big for online ranked.
>>58667493anywhere that also has swirlix aside from the spot with 6 swirlix
>>58667493There's two across the gap on the other side from the alpha. Same bench.
>>58667503>>58667513thanks fellas
anyone have a size comp chart for anything in the fennekin line?
>>58667258The absolute madman.
>>58667503>>58667513well damn.
>>58667664I guess I can't be too upset.
>>58667697Shieeet, I was hunting at this exact spot, just move up little bit to hunt the monkeys and Larvitar.Got my S2 today, the loading time is insane compared to S1.
I did it!
>>58667906Grats, I lucked out 2 Shalpha from Z20 so wont be bother with that pack of lions.
Did you know: gen 8 overworld encounters are fully generated when they appear, not when the battle begins. Fun fact.
>>58667917I'm on a masochistic can't progress until caught all pokemon from wild zone when they open so I can't do 20 or the battle zone method for Skarmory. Was a lot of walking back and forth.
>>58667919Yes, I RNG'd all the SOJs and a 3 segment-able shiny Dunsparce. Manip uses 128 in-menu attack animations, it's a fun one
>>58667930It’s all about trying to read tiny loading clocks on a 3DS or bust
>Shalpha Froslass in Zone 20>So used to it autosaving that when I fail to catch it in my desired ball I reset>I forgot I couldn't save as I'd pulled aggroREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>58668015Always save before ball deep anon.
Had a save in front of a Dartrix outbreak with second stage being alphas for like 3 months and its just such a hassle to corral them enough to fight multiple at once
>>58665756>>Leave the game running overnight in a Wild Zonehow exactly does that work? you just stand there and don't close it? wouldnt that leave you vulnerable to pokemon attacks?also your shinies have meaning because you give them meaning not how easy or not easy it is to get them
>>58668058Probably macro a bench but you can also leave your character standing in a corner where no one attacks you.
>>58668069is there a safe place for that where Skarmory is? I kinda wanna try and catch a shiny one in a friend ball
>>58668073https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pe_-Uuqy1U
>absol shiny ALPHA>hawlucha shiny ALPHAwinning the lottery this week
>>58665579What's with pre-evo shinies looking so much better than there evolved form.
>>58668076Thanks, probably gonna try the spawn method because holy shit those lions were immediately on his ass
why the fuck is shiny Bellsprout so fucking rareI am sick and tired of fucking shiny pidgeys and venipedes
>>58668180Huh????
>>58668180Tell that to my full box of Bellsprout.
>>58668180Rare? i have a shiny alpha one that I caught just while in the middle of something and it ran at me in a rage
>>58667391A step above injection.. In fact, I respect injected shinies as a concept more than RNG maniped, because at least the child outright cheating them in ACCEPTS he's cheating them in RNGcheats can't accept they're cheating, get autistically defensive for sitting rain manning the game, just for an alt colour palette.
>>58668209Ehh, to be fair, RNG can be a different bitch for different anons. I'm pulling teeth here trying to find a shiny bunnelby, there's anons been putting a fleet of wabbits up for shiny trade because they want rid of theirs.
After a few hours got a shiny Ralts>M size>MaleNever had a shiny Gallade so it's fine I guess...
>>58668459I have a ton of female Gardevoir if you want one.
>>58668525thanks anon, but I'm trying to get a XS or S one in a Dream Ball.
>>58668551I have only gotten one XS shiny (Pichu), this size is rarer than any Shalpha. Good luck.
>>58667551I can try. Where and how can I take a picture like it has exact comparisons like that? All I know is hold - but Fennekin is cropped out.
>>58668561Yeah this is why I'm fine with S size as well. Got a female one right now but it was an alpha and I already have a Gardevoir I got from zone 20. I guess I'll make a team with Alpha Ralts, Alpha Killia and alpha Gardevoir if I get another one.If I get more I'll just give them to people here I guess.
>>58668611I just checked my box, got one female S ralts in Lux ball if u are desperate for one.Just got this btw.
What do you guys watch/listen to while shiny hunting?
>>58668670whatever I find interesting
>>58668670Metallica
>>58668670MLB mostly.
>>58668661Thanks anon, I'm not in a rush but if I don't get it in the next few days I might want it. I don't mind the grind rn because I'm also going for the Eevee that spawns from the same bench
>>58668724I know exactly where you are benching, I got most of my Ralts from there too but only one Eevee.Yeah, I will be around.
>People with Shiny Diancie How?
>>58668780hacks
>>58668780Hacked or emulated switch. Shes supposed to be shiny locked.
>>58668780>>58668781>>58668785While these ones are most likely hacked, it WAS actually distributed as shiny in the past, but very rarely.
>>58668913perhapsbut there's no HOME support yet so there's no way to transfer that shiny diancie to ZA
>>58668920Did LA have home support on release?
>>58668941No
>>58668941pretty sure GF always does this, release new games with no HOME support so people play with the pokemon ingame rather than transfer a bunch of lvl100 pokemon from previous game
>>58668913>it WAS actually distributed as shiny in the pasDesu come on, you know he means Legends ZA
>>58668913fucking hate these locked distributions
>>58669196LOL
>>58669196Not my OT, not my problem
>>58669196>>58669199I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. GF invented shiny locks to say FUCK YOU to shiny hunters
>>58669196Don't worry, you'll be able to pay $20 for one in Pokemon Go!
>>58667906neat. i got a shalpha one this morning from Wild Zone 20. Still no Totodiles though.
2 female alpha Ralts and 2 M female ones (which I lost figuring out how the backup save thing works) and 1 male so far. I hope it doesn't take more than a few days because I still want to get a female Fennekin.
>got my 17th Tyrunt>not alphaI'm just glad I got something.
fishing in platinum fucking sucks, especially with the old rodand suction cups is fucking bugged toogetting a shiny feebas will be a fucking hell...
>>58668261Where are you searching? I kept phasing on them in Wild Zone 5 while fast travel spamming there for Shiny Froakies, there's three spawns in range there and it's super easy to do with just a standard turbo controller by having Autofire A on and pressing start after you enter Wild Zone 5. Like so.>>58669196Probably a controversial opinion, but I'm actually cool with shiny locks on STORY Legendaries because they're clearly there to prevent you from wasting hundreds of hours soft resetting and not progressing the game or more realistically so the Pokemon wasn't shiny in battle despite not being shiny in the preceeding cutscene. It's when its non-story legendaries that it pisses me off, like every single returning legendary in SV's DLC being shiny locked.
>>58669657They unironically just leaked it LMAO
>>58670082>t's when its non-story legendaries that it pisses me off, like every single returning legendary in SV's DLC being shiny locked.Even funnier when they weren't locked in DA. Someone once said there was an issue with having them not look shiny until you encountered them or something and they didn't want that, but I'm gonna assume that was a fan theory (but seems legit because Sw/Sh did that for all encounters)
>>58670082>because they're clearly there to prevent you from wasting hundreds of hours soft resetting and not progressing the gameand why does GF need to care about that? it's my time, it's my game, I play it and do whatever the fuck I want
>>58670119I think that's just speculation, but probably not far off the mark. Based on how they did it in SwSh's DLC, where all 6 Regis, including the two new ones, weren't shiny locked (because they don't appear in the overworld) but Kubfu, the Galarian Birds, and Calyrex and his Horses were (because they DO appear in the overworld), they probably don't want mons to appear normal in the overworld but shiny once the battle starts. And since in their infinite stupidity the postgame SV legendary encounters spawn in the overworld and it only generates the actual Pokemon (and rolls for it to be shiny) once you interact with them, then that means they're gonna shiny lock them.The only counter to this is that Virizion/Cobalion/Terrakion weren't shiny locked and they also appear in the overworld, so really who fucking knows.
>>58670131>I play it and do whatever the fuck I wantIncorrect. You do what Game Freak ALLOWS you to do, which is why you're complaining.
>>58670159bro, you think them locking the starters stopped me?the first thing I did in shsw was to hunt for a shiny rookidie and then when I unlocked the day care, I got an english sobble from the GTS and started hatching eggs the old school way, no masuda methodIt took me like 3 months to get a shiny sobble and to progress the game and GF couldn't stop me from getting my shiny fucking starter
>>58670169damn, retarded AND autism
>>58670177where the fuck do you think you are?this is the autism threadmight as well be called like that
>trying to dupe spawns in the Water areas of Wild Zone 20 to get shiny Totodile>get a shiny Gardevoir in the Grass/Water crossover area before I even finish duping the water spawnsgod damn it
I'm benching for chespin. Will the sparkles be visible before it jumps out off the hole?
>>58670282yes
>>58665579>Got the charm last night>spent 1 hour running back and foward for Froakie or Falinks>0 shinies.
>>58670299why are running? just fly to zone 5 if you want froakie
>>58670305I'm hunting for Froakie or Falinks that's why I'm running.
>>58670306then fly to zone 16 and roll to the gate and repeat
>>58670306I'm pretty sure flying to 5 also gets you both.

Rev up those PoGo dollars
>>58670338nope
>>58670342Rev up those 3DS hacked in distributions
>>58670338Miserable dogshit if they use ZA's pokedex completion for a distributed Diancie and not Hoopa/Volcanion.
>>58670343nope either
I'm gonna try to AFK for those bunnary in area 6
>>58670338The only thing I'm reaving up is the twitchbot that clones this and distributes it
>>58670353Just get the 3DS one, not dafartknocka69's shiny diancie.
>>58670299>spent 1 hour running back and fowardWow Anon, a whole fucking hour?
>>58670338Hahahahahahahahahaha fuck me
>>58670338Don't forget, this isn't paying for the shiny, this is paying to do miserable busywork to get the shiny.
>>58670380I enjoy the busywork
>>58670385To each their own, my flavor of tedium is in soft resetting and egg hatching, catching 100's of pokemon and doing things routinely day after day is too much for me.
>>58670314Flying to 5 only gets you two of the Falinks spawns.>>58670346I don't think it'd be Diancie unless they're doing one for base game and one for DLC. All the previous ones aside from Meltan were shiny locked worldwide, so I think it's more likely its going to be Volcanion or Hoopa. Probably Hoopa. I swear to fucking god if they ignore all the patterns and do zeraora
>>58670417they should do jirachi or mew
I have uhhhh extra small shiny talonflameIs it optimal
>>58670411>doing things routinely day after day is too much for meFocusing on this part, I dislike the Do a thing 10 days in a row part, but stuff like get 300 excellent throws or find 20 Kecleon is fun. Makes me play the game in a new way with an actual goal. Also fuck the stuff that is just a tedious time gate like having 10 best buddies or 20 ultra friends.
>>58670422They shouldn't because I already have both.
>>58670338I've never installed this game. All my non-pokemon playing friends did though.
>>58670435well, I don'tespecially Jirachi. I can always get a japanese emerald and inject the event to get mew but I have no way to get the jirachi from the colloseum disc or whatever it's called
>>58670422Mew is technically not shiny locked because Japanese Old Sea Map can be shiny, and Jirachi has had shiny distributions in the past.>>58670433Yeah that's cool and all but I'm racist against Pokemon with the GO regulation mark. They're not even real Pokemon.
>>58670440There was a XY event for Jirachi in Japan so it should be easier to get this one.
>>58670501yes, everything is given in japan while the west gets cuckedI pretty much got all the XY events I could and I still haven't recieved them from the lady in the pokemon center until this day. Same for ORAS, SM and USUM events
1.03 out, seems overloading still works. Do your own research before you update.
I just finished the game with 92 hours played. I wanted to take my sweet time since I've been waiting for Pokémon Z since the release of XY. I remember being in the midnight release haha.I basically did a PoC without intending to do it; I just couldn't get the Alpha Chespin line, the Alpha fossils and the exclusives to zone 20, but I did get every screw and get to A rank in both seasons. I mainly finished it today because of the release of Zygarde in ranked battles.I finished with 540-ish battles, level 48 in the Mable's research and 215 Pokémon catched. It was fun; I avoided using online guides and Serebii. For online, I even avoided Smogon and just went with Glaceon and freeze dry strat, Mega Gyarados and Soft Sand Garchomp: i got into the meta without knowing hahaHowever, since the game leaked, I knew that I was going to hunt the Shiny Alpha Fossils eventually, and I'm making arrangements for that: would buying 960 fossils and a turbo controller work fine for hunting? Or would you guys go with macro stuff? I've used automation programs in gen 8 and 9, so that wouldn't be an issueIf the info that twitter threw at me randomly, it is a 1/100 for the fossils and a regular shiny chance, not affected by the charm, right? So about 1/400k, right? Do you guys have any info regarding resets per hour?I'm kinda of an OCD maniac and I was already 80% into a shiny living home dex and every full generation living dex, so a shiny alpha living dex fits right into the OCD and my autismThanks in advance =D
>>58670707I suppose if you're going to empty all Pokemon in your boxes you could fill absolutely everything and leave it running. It's about 6-7 minutes per box so all boxes would take around 4 hours. Hypothetically speaking of course, someone fact check me on that.God speed though you crazy madman.
>>58670714Thanks for the good luck! =DYes, I intended to backup every box with Pkhex and go into resetting with every box space available, however, I intend to purchase every fossil with hard-earned moneyI guess i'm a bit insane; I even started learning french when the first trailer for legends za released: if the hunt gets boring after a while, maybe I'll start a new file in french....Maybe I should just get a job instead, or be an alcoholic; just anything would be healthier than the shit i'm doing with shinies and dexes hahaha
>>58670746>Maybe I should just get a job instead, or be an alcoholic; just anything would be healthier than the shit i'm doing with shinies and dexes hahahanot the anon above but I've seen some really crazy and even more difficult hunts than the one you're trying to do from people that have a job and a life so I would say you're not that far goneif you enjoy hunting shinies and have a good time, who cares? people waste time doing useless thing all the time anyway
>>58670440There was just a Jirachi event in go :^)
>>58671219>in goto the trash it goes
>>58671221Your loss ;)
>>58671229you can't lose something that doesn't exist
>ranked opens soon>still haven't found a shiny chespinIt's ogrepon.
>>58670714>>58670707Can you even get a shiny alpha Aerodactyl? I remember reading that particular fossil was impossible to get alpha
>>58668580do in front of the hotel z the moment you get out, send out the pokemon in the exact position you are in(do not move), make sure you use the details of the background to make sure each pic is almost exact.
>>58671492Got it. Unfortunately I never got a non-Alpha XL, but I'll remake this if I ever do.
>>58671515Thank you anon!
Oh, huh, shiny Bunnelby seems to be a slightly different color than in other games, I think. It’s not even remotely dark anymore. The portrait looks darker than the actual model.
>>58670707>catched
>>58671515Are there size variances between categories in this game? i.e. Will the game show different-sized M-categorized Pokémon?I have been trying to figure this out for PLA and SV as well, noone seems to have knowledge or evidence
When you guys say AFK hunting do you mean just standing somewhere within the zone and leaving the console on for a couple of hours or do you mean something else? because I did that last night standing on the bridge where you can see Buneary trio and came back this morning to see 2 alphas there
>>58671744It means afk benching or running with a macro controller.
>>58671746Oh, so I basically wasted a night. I'm embarrassed
>>58671712the visuals aren't as easy to go bylarge pokemon sometimes have a lower pitched cry
>>58671744I like that you committed at least 8 hours of electricity to an idea you read about wth 0 research
>>58671754Leave me alone!
>>58671744To be fair that's also a legitimate way of shiny hunting. Go for broke anon. Shiny hunt in real time.
>>58667447Fine jackassLet’s see how far my autism can go with this.
Bro I'm just EV training wtf
>>58672261He's even Adamant
>>58665579>Just got my shiny charm in ZA last nightI have no idea what to hunt now. I took forever because of the stupid battle grind.Any suggestions?
>>58672422whatever you want the most
>>58672422Zone 20 static alpha hunting is fun cause you're basically double gambling since the pool is like 60+ mons
>>58672458I was thinking of shiny larvitar since I like the whole line's shiny design honestly.I also want to build a new team that isn't mons I used in base game for the DLC. So far I've got a shiny roserade and a shiny Sharpedo I happened across during the end-game stuff so they'll each take a slot I think.
>>58672510Love me pokemon slots
got my shiny Toxel today, after 648 REs for Phase 2 and a total of 3180 REsIt has a modest nature too so that's actually greatWith this shiny, I finally completed my DTQ that I started when the game came out and now I can go and challenge the pokemon leaguetook me more than 6 years to finish one game lmao
>>586729456 years to finish a shiny only game or 6 hours take your pick
>>58665579>Load up Z-A>A new update is available for this titleOH NONONO BROS IS IT SAFE?
>>58673062from what I read on twitter, yes it is safe, nothing related to shiny hunting was patched
>>58673062The only thing that got patched was a bug with online not giving mega stones when it should. Everything else is untouched.
>>58673064>>58673075>When the bug fix update is actually just bug fixesLooking good, thanks m8s.
>>58667551>>58671515Can you do this but with Scolipede please?
am I going crazy or does the rooftop section of zone 15 only spawn 2 larvitar now? it used to spawn 3 but I keep resetting and only 2 show up
save scumming when you find a shiny + the loud ass audio cue ruined shiny hunting
>>58673221the only thing that ruined shiny hunting were shiny locks
>>58673221Save scumming has worked since the switch came out.
>>58673221Go back to reset hunting legendaries in Gen four then.
>>58672521>larvitarThis hunt is the worst. Get 3 and never look back.
Anyone have a shiny male hawlucha they’d be willing to trade? Idc about nature or stats. Willing to trade two of pic related for it, or 5 all holding apricorn balls if it’s a shalpha
>>58673876Not sure why this is fucking horizontal, my bad
I wanted Barney the greenasaur
>>58673883I have a regular shiny male, can we do Pumpkaboo and Onix, do you mind put Metal Coat on him?
>>58673916Yes, code will be 2456 7999 ign chris
Can anyone help me evolve my Scyther? If you've got something to evolve or need to complete Mable's missions, this would be a nice opportunity.
>>58673921Thanks.>>58673928Sure, post your code, I need to evolve one of my shiny.
>>58673933All right! We will use this posts number.
>shiny pidgey>shiny trubbish again >shiny alpha salamence>shiny weedle>shiny alpha kakunaI just wanted the eevee dawg not this shiny phasing Reddit shit
>>58673891Do you need Shalpha? Otherwise I have some spare green frogs.
>>58673950Is this Fennekin spot? I just kill all the weedle and trubbish around before benching.
>>58673966It’s close to it because I’m compelled to make a meta glaceon and I don’t need alpha
>>58673950You might as well bench at the fennekin since there's a wide range of stuff to get. It'll probably take days anyway.
Trying for an XS shiny is fucking miserable. I think I'm stopping for now in hope the donuts in the DLC are like SV sandwiches and there's one with a Teensy effect.
>need some ev berreis to retrain my flareon>accidental gibleneat
>>58674552yea, but I only need to retrain a few EVs, not all of them
>>58674305it is absolutely aids if the mon doesn't spawn en masse. t. over 30 for XS Staryu
4 medium sized male fennekins fuck RNG.
Everyone, say hello to Christopher P. Bacon. 212/227 of my Living Dex.
Would it be dumb to ask for pogo stamped shiny legendaries for a pogo stamped XL shiny female torchic? I’m new to pogo stamp trading stuff and just want a legitimate shiny shaymin
>>58674837Well Shaymin is a mythical with the only way to get it in Go to be having bought it like a year and a half ago, so I don't think anyone would trade theirs. You could probably find someone who would sell one on Ebay but lolMight as well get your own in Platinum, that's what I did.
>>58674770I mean, XL/XS is 0.8% and S/L are 6%
>>58674776Hello Christopher
>>58674865Would a shiny groudon be more reasonable?
>XS Delibirdthank fuck it's...useless...
>>58674914While I can't really speak on the trading value of things, Groudon is available in a ton of games with the ability to be shiny and has regular raids in Go. Try to think of something as rare as Shaymin (and probably having the mark too).
>>58674922Oh I mean for the torchic lol
>>58674926oh, then i guess the torchic would be more valuable depending on the legendary.
>>58674946wait, actually, do you mean ZA XL or normal XL? because those are very different. normal XL isn't that rare but ZA XL is actually XXL and pretty rare
>>58674955It’s a shiny, female, XL torchic I caught in GO. I want to know what it would be worth trading for.
>>58674966XL in Go just means big, so its just a kinda large female starter shiny. Still cool, and depending which legendary you want, it's probably a fair trade.
>>58669214>15 years later and shiny Victini is still unobtainable
>>58674868>Check my shiny box for XS>Pichu and GibllePut Eviolite on them right away.
Tiny XS Shiny Scolipede that reminds me of Corbeau being a tiny manlet.
>>58674770got 10 ralts on the last two days, 4 alphas and 6 M ones...
>>5867604711th one, L size this time. I think S and XS mons just don't exist.
Hehe
>>58676463Greem
>>58676463Reminder that for a complete collection you need 3 more of these and one needs to be the 1/8 female
>>58676476I only care about Alphas for fully evolved monsAnd the only 2 eeveelutions that aren't in the zone 20 alpha slot machine are umbreon and espeon
>>58676472Why is your name [vga port]?
>>58676556Why isn't yours?
>>58676472good name
Wfg is dead right now so I'll ask hereAnyone willing to trade me a friend ball for a love or heavy ball?
>>58676589yeah i'll tale a love ball, 8888 8250
Hawlucha won’t shine for me
>>58676665Sorry bout the errors my internet hates pokemonThanks for the ball anon
>>58676672Manifesting shalpha Hawlucha for u
>>58676679Thank you anon I appreciate it. Are you hunting for anything atm? If so I hope you get them sooner than later.
>>58676695Nothing in particularI just kinda work on a static alpha until I phase on something than move to another oneHelps keep the sanity intactJust got a shalpha lucario from the z20 slot machine so I'm thinking I'll move to trevenant/scyther since it's night
>>58676703>Just got a shalpha lucario from the z20 slot machineNot him but hell yeah, that's been my top priority for a while.Might've gotten him more quickly if I knew about The Exploit, but eh. My guy was was either the 3rd, 4th or 5th post-charm tower shalpha though (somewhere between delibird and hawlucha) so I certainly won't complain.
Also, yes.
I just want to see another shiny fennekin, I don't even care if it's male...
>>58677143I can trade you a shiny female fennekin for a dream ball.
>>58677174My switch is probably gonna die if I keep this up so this would help a lot anon
>>586771907788. Pokeball or Love ball?
>>58677190Love Ball if it's alright for you. Do you want anything other than the dream ball? I have a million of female Ralts.
>>58677208meant to quote >>58677200
>>58677208That's okay. I don't need a shiny Ralts. I have the Kirlia and Gardes I need. If you don't have any attachment to dream balls, I'll take two.
>>58677220That's the only one I have left... I have a bunch of the other ones but Fast Ball though. Do you want any?
>>58677229Then no worries. Enjoy Fennekin.
>>58677125This was actually my second shalpha lucario so now I can have one specced physical and one special
>>58677229>had*
>>58677232Thank you anon! Kinda curious now about which mon do you want to get with the Dream Ball
>>58677229Oh I didn't even notice it was Alpha. Thanks.
Give me a reason to continue my Type0 resets
>>58677250Gotta style on Gladion
>>58677250It wants to be your friend
>>58677242I'm hunting more female Fennekins and maybe a DLC pokemon. What I'm really hoping for is that they add these Sports and Dream and Safari balls to the ranked pool or the DLC shop so they aren't so rare. Grinding the Apriballs before season 2 was absolutely hopeless.
>>58677260>I'm hunting more female FennekinsGood luck with that. I was benching for like 8 hours today, and about the same time yesterday and all I got was a male one in the first hour.Same about the season pokeballs. But knowing game freak it's more likely that they will circle between them, which I hope they don't do.Also enjoy the Ralts!
Time for Drampa and Cleffa/Clefairy.If I didn't hate myself already I'm going to hate myself now.
>>58677399easy hunt, just gotta be time conscious
