>>21149251I managed to get a shiny Starly in platinum through Pokeradar chaining. Never again. Chaining is fucking stressful, you have to get 40 CONSECUTIVE chains before you get the highest rate of seeing a shiny, which is still something like 1 in 500. It's in-fucking-sane, and really easy to mess up because a chain can literally break at any time for no reason at all.
>mfw a chain breaking at 35 and it took me 2 days to even get that high again MM'ing is the best and most efficient way of shiny hunting. That way, you have a great deal of control over your shiny, it's just tedious as hell.
