In theory, soft resetting for shinies should take an average of 8192 resets, if I'm correct.

Anyone know or have a link/list regarding which legendaries/stationary Pokemon are shiny-locked?

Wait, this mans hands can materialize a girl friend for me? I'm ok with him slapping her once if thats the price I pay to get a woman who will put up with me.
Truly this man is a saint.

Oh, and gift Pokemon. Anything basically that can't be caught/hatched under normal circumstances.

Because the shiny ratio isn't "one out of every 8192 Pokemon is shiny"
The shiny ratio is "the RNG that determines the Pokemon you encounter has a 1 in 8192 chance of making the next Pokemon you meet shiny"
The 1 in 8192 chance is the same for EACH POKEMON you encounter.

That's why I said the AVERAGE of resets. Not the absolute number.

that's still wrong, though.

If you did it 8192 times, you'd still only have about a 63% chance of getting a shiny.

My shiny Azelf took about 3 months. I think I soft-reset on a shiny once during that time, which is why it took so long. My Darkai took about 3-5 days.

Luck of the draw, really.

Celebi, Arceus, Spiky-eared Pichu, Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, Keldeo, Meloetta, Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde.
The shiny Jirachi from Colosseum is also non-transferable via Bank.

Thank you Anon. Was thinking about soft reseting for shiny Zygarde so glad I won't waste my time now.

I wonder if this means that there will be a shiny event for those three at some point?
