Hunting Tornadus in OR. I was hunting Regigigas, but after I changed my clock for Daylight Savings, it never showed up again, so I guess he'll wait for when I reset the game before transferring everything to the Bank. Once a mon's been in S&M, it can't go back, right?

>>30702157 Personally, I like to hatch six at a time and box/release, but with the ability to now immediately box any eggs you receive and hatch them passively in Pelago, I've started to accumulate extras to hatch while I'm away.
Once the hot springs are full, though, I go back to the six-at-a-time formula so I don't have boxes and boxes of unhatched eggs.

Chain length of 10 to 19: 5% chance of Hidden Ability

Chain length of 30 to 255*: 15% chance of Hidden Ability
Shiny Chance
Chain length of 0 to 69: ???**
Chain length of 70 to 255*: Three extra rolls for a shiny spawn.
After a chain of 70 the game rolls the shiny chance an extra three times, meaning the normal chance of 1/4096 gets increased to 4/4096, effectively giving a chance of 1/1024.

Basically bring a lot of leppa berries + a high level pokemon with keen eye (unless you enjoy missing every shot) and another pokemon with a move that won't 1 shot it.
Sandygast is a very very hard pokemon to chain for because even if you do what I suggest it can still use mega drain to reduce the chance of it calling for help

What's the best way to SOS chain something like Phantump? I'm using a Smeargle with Dragon Rage, and the fuckers keep restoring their HP with Ingrain, and possibly Leech Seed if I'm extra lucky. That makes them stop giving a fuck about the adrenaline ball I tossed at them. I spent about two and half hours just looking for the HA and it was just horrible.

I might not have it ready by the end of this thread, but next week I will be posting a full Guide on S/M Shiny Hunting, and a Full Guide on Hunting Legendaries across every Gen. If there is is enough demand, I'll also update the Gen 1-6 Shiny Hunting Guide that I last updated like 3 years ago

Is there a way to self-inflict Paralysis on your own Pokemon? I'm trying to hunt for a Shiny Salandit, female. I am using Sylveon right now, but he keeps getting poisoned by the Salandit's Smog attack. I have Misty Terrain but it only works for 50 turns (10pp, 5 turns each).

>>30713685 Yeah, I hate that there's not better leveling post elite four. Grinding for the full pokedex was a bitch and a half, especially on some of the weaker stage two dragons.
But I was thinking of Bold (just swapped in a better stat one with Bold/everstone) to up that SpD anyway? So then we're thinking egg moves of Amnesia, Stockpile, possibly Earth Power or Shadow Ball? I'll go grab something with Amnesia to breed them down, and I'll report back on how this goes.
