Just filled my second box on Honedges doing the MM thing. This is going to take awhile isn't it?

How long did it take for you guys?

Oh forgot to add the last time I bred for a shiny it was in Leafgreen I was retarded and my first couple of tries I got a shiny houndour.

I thought it was supposed to be that easy, man I was wrong.

Depends. My shortest project was 10 boxes before getting Phanpy (that was with the Shiny Charm), and my longest was 100 boxes before getting Froakie (that was without the charm).

I'm currently on box 31 of Lileep, nothing yet. Do you have the charm?

When you fill 20+ boxes then you can start complaining.

No I don't I wasn't sure if the shiny charm affected breeding, I'll keep that in mind.

>>18462813
From all the MM threads I've seen I figured as much.

It took 15 boxes before I got my Torchic, and only half of a box for my Mawile. It's really just luck and chance.

It's not 100% Serebii confirmed, but some people on Smogon have been keeping track of their MM projects, and their data seems to show that the charm does in fact affect breeding. Either way, a lot of people tend to get their shiny after 30+ boxes without the charm, whilst those with the charm might get one between box 21 and 27. It all boils down to how lucky you are, but expect to hatch an ungodly amount of eggs before the red sword shows up.

I'm not even counting the boxes because that would make the process even slower than it is. I'm releasing them as i get them.

It's been already 32 hours (game hours) of constant peddaling. Both parents are in the level 90+. Venipedes, whose hatching time is low.

I'm even using the charm.

5 real days in and still no shiny.

Suffering throught the whole process. Purple´s already my most hated color.

And I'm swearing to god... if this shit comes with Swarm or Poison Point. If it's missing Attack or Speed.
I'm going to meet Masuda personally.

Technically, only 705 Pokémon count towards the Shiny Charm, so event legendaries like Deoxys, Shaymin and Mew aren't necessary. Otherwise, yes, all Pokémon must be obtained.

I did 3 shinies since I've gotten my Shiny Charm, and got them in 3, 8 and 3 boxes.
Also managed to get an accidental Shiny Torchic (before the charm), but I didn't keep track of that one.

Not him, but tsv/esv method is knowing your secret shiny value, the shiny value of you egg and then trading that egg to someone with a matching shiny value. Then they hatch you egg, and give you back the shiny.

Aka instacheck method

yes, but i think if you have a digital copy of the game, there are others ways to find it.
Google show some places where someone says it can find your value, but i dont know if that works.

Sometimes takes me a few days. Other times it hatches in a few hours. My average is probably about 8 boxes in X.
One time hatched a shiny on the first egg and it ended up having pretty good stats.

I bred 4 shiny honedges that all had shit IVs. Then I hatched a normal one that had 31/31/31/31/31/0 quiet and got someone to make it shiny.

If I were to attempt to breed another competitive shiny it'd probably be smogonkeys or something that only needs 4 IVs to be good (and not reliant on any HA).
