Alrighty guys, I know it's a little early, but I'm bored, and 90% of this board right now is a clusterfuck of people posting their shinies anyway.

For people still asking, YES, It's been made pretty damn clear that shinies are more common in X & Y. This makes hunting for them a less painful experience, and most non-hunters have a chance of finding them in random encounters. Because of this, many people have shown interest in trading their unwanted shinies for something else. If you want to trade your shiny for another one in this thread (or simply give it to a loving home) this would probably be the best thread to ask around in.

You know the drill by now:
>Post shiny stories
>Tell us what you're hunting
>Trade shinies
>Chill out and have fun!
