OLD THREAD:
>>14815532 With X & Y out, and most of you guys finishing the game, why not join us in hunting for shinies? Chill out, post your shiny stories, your finds, and have fun.
Trading unwanted shinies is also welcome in this thread!
Oh, and for the last time, take off the Roller Skates when Chaining, and stick to using the D-Pad, or it will mess up the chain.

>>14822532 Actually, that's EXACTLY what's going to happen. Eggs are determined as soon as you receive them.
Worst thing is, he cant release eggs, so any eggs he has waiting to be hatched will have to be traded, or hatched & released, or else they will just take up box space.
A lot of time wasted.

i am an avid shinyhunter in Platinum and am disappointed upon trying the new radar this gen,.. i can hardly find any grass areas big enough and most of the time i can't see enough around me- more than 4 spaces in each direction. but i guess that doesn't matter much now with the "rustles intensity" being a key factor rather than the amount of spaces away when determining a successful chain?
also, no poketch type app that counts your chain? i gotta rely on watching my poke's PP to figure how many i'm on. kinda lackluster. no shinies yet this gen.
sorta related note: when is the pokebank gonna be up? i'm eager to get my pokes from black2 into X and the shinies i have from platinum..

>>14822690 No, I was suggesting that he may be stacking eggs in his boxes. Some people do it this way.

To whoever loses hope about hatching shinys I have hope. Even if it doesn't come soon it'll come, I got this little cutie after 13 boxes of goomy. I'll use an ability capsule sooner or later for gooey ability but for now he's on my team. I almost gave up for the night last night and had 5 eggs left and figured I'd hatch them and start fresh today and the second one was shiny.

So who should I MM?
