FREQUENT Q&A:

>How do you get a shiny pokemon?
There are a lot of ways to get them, but you need patience. Masuda method, chaining, fish chaining, wonder trade, friend safari, gts, etc.

>How do you make eggs hatch faster?
Get a Pokemon with the Flame Body ability. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Flame_Body_(Ability)

>Where is the best place to hatch your eggs?
Right in front of the daycare center. Go all the way to the left, position yourself under the sign beside the cave and you can go all the way to the right and back without interruption. Alternatively, you can fly to Lumiose, and just hold a direction in the middle, going in circles around the Prism Tower

>What is the most efficient way to do the Masuda Method?
This is debatable. It's more about personal preference. You can either A) Fill your party with five eggs, hatch them all, then box them. B) Box the pokemon as soon as they hatch and just continue getting eggs. C) Get eggs, box them (however many you want), then just do A or B.

***WARNING: FISH CHAINING HAS BECOME EXTREMELY POPULAR AMONG USERS OF /vp/ AND THUS SHINIES (Gyarados, Skrelp, Clauncher, Staryu, Dratini, etc.) HAVE BECOME ALMOST WORTHLESS IN TERMS OF TRADING. BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU'RE TRADING!***
