>>50848989>What are you currently hunting?any Safari Zone Shinies in SS/Em; preferably Gligar/Mareep/Spinarak in the latter, and Beldum/Torkoal/Shroomish in the former. I plan on making dream teams for each pokeathlon event out of the SS ones, and contest stars out of the Em/spare SS ones.
>How are you hunting it?through masochism and insanity- full odds in both games, without exploits, using Illuminate mon to boost encounters and Repel tricks in SS to keep away repeats like Gastly or Bellsprout
>Previous successes?pic related took 9 days and 14,516 encounters. Came a day or two after safari week, during which I got absolutely nada lol. Got super into hunting during it after a long hiatus though and now I do not intend on stopping. Caught her first ball and named her Persimmon, but I’ll probably just trade her to Plat/Pearl for contests since her athlon stats are real bad (nature is the worst possible for the activity, rip). At least she looks pretty
>have you hunted in the safari zone/great marsh?This was my first time; didn’t touch the great marsh. Might switch over there if I somehow exhaust my Johto encounter table, but seeing as there are 20+ shinies in my max-level zones that I would kill years of time to earn I doubt that’ll happen any time soon haha
Wish me luck bros, I’m not stopping til I’ve mastered every contest in both gens and taken the gold in every athlon activity possible. All with shinies. Planning on hunting a Munchlax in Pearl to go along with all the Safari Zone buggers, just for fun, since I’ve already tracked down at least 2 of my trees on there by total accident.
If I somehow catch a fucking beldum I’m taking that crown jewel into the Frontier, but I’m sure as hell not counting on that :P
Anyways, full odds all the way baby. Already 5k+ into the next Safari Zone Shiny, wonder who it’ll be
