That was bullshit so I just
Got a few shinies from instacheck at the start of gen 6 but the only usable one of them was Bravest Bird. Mostly they had some suboptimal IVs or abilities but one of them was a physical riolu that didn't have Crunch or Bullet Punch. He bred Endure, HJK, Blaze Kick and Quick Attack instead, which is fucking stupid.
Bred a Shiny Froakie with Torrent, which was extremely disheartening. After that i bred a Shiny Scyther, but Shiny Scizor looks like ass and Scyther is an underwhelming mon so i never used it. I also have Balltism and it was in a Sport Ball iirc. I did MM a Shiny Electrike recently, though.
