>>54030696Soft resetting sucks. Assuming you're playing Gen 2-5 where full odds are 1/8192, 5000 soft resets would give you only a 45.7% change of encountering a shiny. If you want a 99.9% chance of encountering a shiny you'd need to soft reset 56585 times. Assuming you can do 3 soft resets in a minute that's around 314 hrs or 13 days of shiny hunting, not factoring in sleeping, bathing, eating, etc.
