I remember a few months back when this started it. Back then it actually meant something but now it seems like the board is in permanent shiny hunt mode everyday.

MMing sounds like the most boring way to get shinys.
I know you can use them competitive in most cases, but I rather breed a good non-shiny one,, thats a lot quicker so I get to battle more often.
Personally I'm chaining with the radar, its not to boring and you a shiny pretty fast, if you know what youre doing.

And the rumor spread around, resulting in everybody running around in their Friend Safaris and of course there will be more shinys if many people try it out.
It can also be true, but I really doubt that the shiny rate is any higher than the normal.
Id guess like 1/7000 or something like that.
Seems like we have to wait for someone to hack the games and get the real numbers

>>16022693 We're hunting for our own shinies. People hunted when PokeGen was on option, and they'll keep hunting despite Instacheck. It's a personal thing, so It's hard to explain, but in short, shinies are only as valuable as their owner sees them to be. Instacheck (and I guess possibly Bank too) wont stop people hunting shinies. It may kill the Shiny Trade threads, as people will be less likely to want to trade when shinies can be easily obtainable, or hacked in, but Hunt threads should be fine.
You follow me?

Now I typically don't mind things that make it a bit easier to get shinies, but as far as methods go for just such things, that still sounds like an extremely shitty method.
