Read this OP as well. Don't complain that you haven't got a shiny yet after a chain of 40, it took myself and others even 100-250+ before seeing our first shiny. You DON'T have to have Surf capabilities if you have a Suction Cup/Sticky Hold/etc type Pokemon. Rock method is for those who don't have either of the previously mentioned or just anyone superstitious. Suction Cup ensures you'll always get an encounter with the rod meaning your chain will never break, therefore meaning the rock method isn't essential.>Run

Start cashing in your fishable shinies in the GTS before it's too late. The GTS is starting to get flooded with them.

Let's go with the assumption that shiny encounter caps at the same amount Pokeradar did: 1:200
This is a 0.5% chance. You can still go for a thousand battles without a shiny. Just remember that this is miles better than the regular rate that's around 0.0125%.

If anyone's got a shiny Horsea with Swift Swim and a neutral or +Sp Attack (As long as it's not -Speed) nature that they'd be willing to trade, I'm willing to trade a shiny Skrelp with Poison Touch and a neutral nature (Quirky) for it I'll just be watching showderps and fishing for a couple hours

Little hint for you folks fishing. Un-register everything except the rod you want to you. It makes it so you can't misclick and it will only take one button push instead of two.

Does accidentally 'walking' break the chain? I hit the D-Pad by accident but the water stopped me from moving so I didn't actually take a step.
