[26 / 4 / ?]
Okay, so I need to get a genesect for a friend of mine, and a shiny ditto so I can breed a shiny rotom. I am willing to trade anything that I have, including my keldeo, shiny thundurus, tornadus, landorus, latios and latias, celebi, shiny bidoof, kyurem, zekrom, and/or reshiram.

>>18378725 one more thing. if anyone has ditto in their friend safari, that would be good as well. and for anyone who wants me to F-off and use the gts, you can't trade event pokemon through the gts.

>>18378725 You do know that the Ditto doesn't have to be shiny to breed a shiny, just foreign?
Right?

>>18378761 I already have a foreign rotom, but a shiny ditto will increase the chances even further.

>>18378769 No it won't. That isn't how the Masuda Method works.
You breed one Pokémon with a certain language tag with another one with a different language tag. The language tag is all that affects the shiny rate for eggs hatched.

>>18378773 actually, being shiny does add to the chances, if you look it up, you will find that out.

>>18378777 Trips confirms it, also shinyness of parents doesn't effect the child, only a shiny charm and foreign parent can.

>>18378784 >if you look it up, you will find that out Maybe you should take your own advice there, champ. Shiny parents only had a higher chance of breeding a shiny in gen II when shininess was based on IVs.

now that I think about it,
>>18378806 and
>>18378797 have a point. I guess I may be wrong in this case, but I know I remember hearing that it increased the chances somewhere. It must have been referring gen 2... Anonymous
>>18378784 Mate, I've got quite a bit of experience with breeding shinies (I've bred about 8 or 9 of them now), and the shininess of the parent has no affect whatsoever. It did in Gen 2, but that was because a Pokémon's shininess depended on their IVs which got passed down through breeding. All you need is 1 foreign parent and the Shiny Charm.
Good luck!

>>18378814 no, for starters, this thread was meant to get me a genesect. It doesn't need to be shiny. the ditto was intended to breed a shiny, but now that it's been sorted out, no need to be jerks.
>>18378822 finally a somewhat nice person here. thanks for giving me that advice. I need to get the shiny charm, but meh.

>>18378836 while I'm at it, however, does a shiny ditto transform into the shiny of whatever it's copying?

>>18378836 In regards to acquiring the Shiny Charm I'd recommend either touch trading with someone with a LiveDex or mass breeding starters and asking for what you're missing on the GTS. Remember that event legendaries don't count towards getting the Shiny Charm off Professor Sycamore.

>>18378848 no, what ditto transforms into depends on what it is facing. a normal ditto can transform into a shiny greninja if that's what it uses transform against.

>>18378866 I know. So much unnecessary and unfitting pink and green shinies. Though some of them do look a bit better in Gen 6, like Espeon.

>>18378851 okay, good plan. i'll give it a try.
>>18378859 thanks for that. a friend wanted to know.
>>18378866 So true. in any case, time to breed a team of shiny magikarp.
