God edition
>>59025615Just inject bro
>>59025630I like wasting my time tho
Going to start hunting Lugia and Deoxys in FRLG. Should I just master ball it? Shit is so nerve wracking that I might kill them.
>>59025809you can preparethere's multiple strategies to make the battle last a lot. Also, research the moves they have
I'm free. >5.5x over odds, a nearly month long hunt
>>59026387There were several other mons too, some I just didn't take while resetting a consistent den and others that I moved to home or gave away.
>get hit with the full odds bug after getting my Charmander>want a full team of shinies to run the came with>Realize just how long that full odds hunts can be>lose all motivation to even play.
>>59026387>>59026389Nice man.
>>59026387Was it worth it, anon? Was it?
>>59025809Have a practice battle with them to see how much Struggle recoil does, that way you can gauge if you should Master Ball or not.
>>59026422If you only have one pokemon on your team, you already have a full shiny team
>>59026645no desuThere's not really even a reg F niche I can think of using it for so it's just part of the collection.
>>59026422Yeah, I'm at over 9K for Magikarp at Mt. Moon after getting a quick CharmanderI have 110 hours logged in Fire Red and all I have to show for it is Charmander, a badge and 17 Pokemon in my Dex.
still looking for two shiny female duduos
1000 resets in Lugia, I am gonna be here a while i guess
damn new games really have made anons soft
>>59027054this, 3200 and barely even started
>>59026885That Pokemon is shiny locked
>>59027293Shiny locks weren't a thing until gen 5
>>59027319You are wrong and the video you posted is that fag that shiny hunts shit that has the lock removed. I remember watching his oras latios video
I caught 4 shinies while EV training. Please don't kill me.
>>59028008What were they?
>>59028008
>>59028784Seriously, how much more betrayal can Paulie take?
Finally got SS Anne Tentacool. Gen 3 shinies are so exciting
May I ask someone to help me trade evolve a Feebas in ZA? It’s the last Pokemon I need to 100% the Pokedex.
>>59030137Still here?
>>59029438Wait what is the SS Anne Tentacool?
>>59030408traded cut so I can get to the truck. Surfing always is tentacool wanted to get a shiny there since it's pretty unique spot.
>>59030349Ah, I am now if you are. Post a trade code if you want, please.
>>59030510This posts number
>>59030514Gotcha, searching now
Do you want your Meditite back?
>>59030531It's whatever.
>>59030538Thank you dude, I appreciate it!
>>59030541Happy to help.
bump
Took 3,198 resets, but finally got my first actual Shiny.
>>59028781>>59028784KricketuneGreat TuskEspathraChansey
>>59031151wow good shit. what'd you catch it in?
I'm on reset 5283 on charmander.. Going over odds sucks..
>>59032050blud
>>59031552Just a great ball. Never did a proper hunt before and didn't have a team for it, so I mainly used my Pidgeotto and Dugtrio to help capture.
>>59032050>Going over odds sucks..that's not over odds tho
>spend about a week resetting Celebi>get very lucky at 1/4 odds>remember after catching/transfer that my 3DS interal date is set to some month in 2050 for some reasonDo capture dates bother you anons?
Move over shiny Manaphy, the shiny Emerald Pokedex Spinda is the new rarest shiny Pokemon:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uaqsBIAAGw
>>59033135Maybe in cases like that, but generally I only care about OT name and that's about it.
>>59026885Save yourself the insanity and at the very least go and get yourself an Old Rod and fish up Magikarp yourself because if you do that at least you can also farm Meowth Pickup items so the time isn't that much of a waste.I probably have enough berries at this point to max out my Powder Jar.
>>59033193I may just rng manip one after fixing the date.It's not in the spirit, but I'm not thrilled at the prospect of doing another one.
>>59033135Celebi is a funny pokemon to have a stupid future capture date for
>>59033135That's pretty funny and fits Celebi. It was destined to be that way.
I was trying to get a Growlithe with Intimidate and Adamant nature but this guy decided to show up before that. It has Intimidate and Careful nature isn't a disaster. I'll add it to my team.
>>59033135Nigga forgot he was RNG’ing his ID in plat sob sob sob
>>59034331I don't own nor have I played platinum.DP was suffering enough.
Ever busted a nut to lugia? I’m not posting the guy pissing himself finding Go Lugia, you can find that yourself
>>59034698Shudo's ghost would be proud
What is the ideal shiny rate in your opinion? Do you like the current 1/4096 odds?
>>59034980Depends on the mon. Long reset times means I want better odds.
>>59034698>Ever busted a nut to lugia?not to lugia but I was jerking off while reseting for a shiny giratina and I got it but then I went full retard and killed it with a fucking quick attack...took me like another 7000+ resets to reclaim itthat's why you should never fap while shiny hunting, bros..
ENOUGH WITH THE TWITTER HUMBLEBRAGS
>>59035052>Quick Attack>On a Ghost type
>>59031477>SV shiniesWho gives a damn? Unless they are destiny marked Jumbo/Mini or Rare marked those shinies aren't worth shit.
Hoping Cetitan is in Gen 10 so I can get a shiny one
>>59036070What's stopping you from getting one now?
>>59036018yep, that's fucking rightI used odor sleuth on giratina so I could false swipe it with my smeargle
>>59036120Not buying SV
>>59036130Why?
>>59036142nta but he probably hates how SV's graphics and performance
>>59036142Simply no interest like most of the Switch games. Getting the last Switch 2 at my local store as a ZA bundle is the only reason I have it.
>>59036145Don’t blame him, I collected an entire living Dex of every SV mon by trading on the GTS alone. I’ve never owned or played SV and most likely never will.
>>59036312at the end of the day, each to their own but the game isn't that bad, especially if you play on a switch 2
>>59036312Based
>>59036029So which games are where shinies worth something?
>>59036416pokemon go
>>59036416Ranger
>>59036416Pokopia
nice little way to end my night, wanted to hit 2700 before bed and now i don't have to :) got em in 2668
>>59036559Nice man.
>>59036559Grats dude. Makes me wish I did the starter shiny hunt in FR, might have to when I clear up all the end of game bits.
>>59036559congrants, pink monkey!
So lads, what are we thinking the prizes for Z-A & MD living dexes are gonna be?If it's not Hoopa for Mega Dimensions at least, Game Freak is retarded Do we expect one for FRLG?
>>59038131I'd guess Mew
>>59038281Mew for FRLG? That'd save a lot of people the Faraway Island hunt, at least
>>59038296That's why I think it won't be Mew, because I think they want to give more of an incentive for people to pick up the other GBA Pokemon games when they release eventually. Cutting Mew out of it will at least curb some from picking it up.
>>59038131FRLG is a bit more complex. Home only lets you withdraw from the game, so they'd need to make a special exception. Mew will be catchable in Emerald, so we won't need it here.I'd say FRLG is Celebi and RSE is Jirachi, maybe not even shiny. They need a way to make them available in the new Gen 3 ecosystem. Other solutions are to either make new mystery events (too much work, unlikely) or unceremoniously drop them in your boxes at a certain point.
>>59038311Ooh I like this LogicTheories on Z-A/MD?
>>59038358Hoopa's the DLC mascot and the shiny wasn't released yet. Makes perfect sense to me.I think there's also a case for Marshadow. Zeraora is debuting in GO this summer, so it might be too soon to release the shiny for Alola Tour in February. The only other Alola mythical they could use is Marshadow, who still needs a mainline debut.Thought this was worth mentioning after how Meloetta was handled. Shortly after we got the Home reward, it was announced for Unova Tour.
>>59038573Thankfully my autism forced me to complete as much of the Dex as possible as I progressed through the game and have it 100% complete now. I always wanted a Shiny Hoopa!
