• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

Join My Shiny Hunting Club!

fun fact: Shiny Charm has no effect on breeding. Wild Pokemon only. So, that was an insanely lucky hatch you got there.
I was told it does. It says "in the wild" in the english description but not in the Japanese one so it could be the translation.
 
Does anyone think it's worth it to make a shiny 5IV? I've been going for a shiny Froakie/Chespin/Fennekin(rotate, trying to get all shiny starters), and since I only have regular, no IV Japenese pokemon of these, then it's hard to chain my own perfect IV Froakie/Fennekin/Chespin with it since the chances are slim. Is it worth it?
 
Don't have access to the friend safari right now. Just reset my game so I could play through again(of course, I backed up all my pokemon in the pokebank first)

Ah. What starter did you go with this time? Good that you did that :).

I think it would be better to try and find a Ditto and breed with that. I think all Dittos are 3IV or higher. (I'm not entirely sure on this.) Bu might as well try and get better IVs. They don't have to be perfect. (My Shiny Ampharos is 1IV and it's in Attack. -_-)
 
I have a shiny 6IV Ditto. BUT IT'S NOT FROM A DOGGONE OTHER REGION UGHHHH

Ditto's don't all have 3IV's. Once caught in the wild rarely have one and one's in safari usually have two. Three IV's are uncommon ONLY in friend safari. Basically undreamable in wild.

I've got a bunch of shiny 5IV pokemon with perfect IV rolls on them. Such as my Honedge with 31/31/31/31/31/0. He couldn't be any more perfect than that(though I do wish he'd stop trying to steal my soul when I'm sleeping, I'm kind of using that still).

Nice ;). Looking forward to using a shiny Torchic I got off of the GTS in the newer games this year. It'll be really nice to train up and use against enemies.
 
I quit hatching for a shiny Chespin.

I was training up my Fearow in friend safari. Fearow is my false-swiper-team-cleaner pokemon. I was practicing in a grass type safari. I gave it a Lucky Egg and used PP Up on Aerial Ace till it was at the max. After only half of my PP had been used, what do I find? A shiny Quilladin! I caught it of course, and I gotta say, Chesnaught looks amazing shiny.

It's IV's are pretty good and in the right stats. It only has the bear two, though.
The nature is Hardy, so I don't lose anything important.

Since then, I've tried hundreds of battles in the friend safari to no avail. Maybe I'll have that luck again and get a shiny frogadier/braxien?

I'm so happy! It's my first friend safari pokemon

Lucky you! My first friend safari shiny was a Lillipup. XD
 
Lucky you two! I have spent between 4-6 hours at least in the friend safari to no avail. :( I have more luck finding Shinies when I'm not looking for them haha. XD I have had a shiny Furfrou, Magby, Taillow, Bunnelby, and Geodude all randomly pop out when I wasn't looking for a shiny! XD Only Shinies I have found on purpose has been when chain fishing and I once MM'd for an Espurr.
 
Is shiny Lillipup cute?
Yea I named it after my dog Bella. It's a stoutland though so now it's as fat as my dog loool

Oh yea I also hatched a shiny Zorua during winter :33333
