I've just cracked 800 Eggs trying to MM a Shiny Charmander. I'm quickly losing my will to keep going with every egg hatched and not seeing a shiny. how the fuck do you guys do this?? I've been at this fucker all week when I have spare time and I just feel like I'm suckered in on some stupid joke, never going to see this damn payoff.

I gave up on Froakies after 15 boxes, and then hatched a honedge on the 7th egg Keep in mind that even with MM you have less than a 0.001% chance of getting a shiny every egg

Breed for stats and you'll get shinies by accident. Even if you don't get shinies, you'll end up with 5 IV guys that you can trade.

Hi, OP. Don't give up - after all, your efforts would have been in vain if you stop. Here are some tips: Watch/listen to stuff while you hatch. Netflix, anime, Youtube, Let's Plays, podcasts... There's all kinds of stuff to entertain you as you ride your bike back and forth. Hatch until you fall asleep at night. To increase egg productivity, I highly recommend breeding your charmander with a foreign charmander of the opposite sex, instead of a ditto. It's worth the extra time to find one via GTS, and I wish I did this long ago. You'll hatch at a much faster rate since your egg inventory will always be full. Do everything in the game that you want to accomplish BEFORE hatching like completing the Pokedex, beating Battle Maison, EVing Pokemon etc. Just don't sit and expect a shiny charmander to hatch. It's most likely going to be normal, and that's okay. It's going to happen for a random amount of time. But I promise it's worth it when you hatch one, look down and see that it's different. That HOLY SHITBALLS moment of wonder is an amazing feeling.
