I'm so lucky I was looking for these things. Got a Golduck with Damp to play it safe. I wasn't even fully aware it was shiny since the fuckers look the same with their shields on. I caught a glimpse of the final spark. Bastard tried to self-destruct twice if it weren't for Damp. I didn't even bother to lower its health to check if it was shiny.

Now I truely have all the Minior variants.

Its easy once you catch everything else, just snipe on the GTS and you can normally grab one of them for someone asking for a dragonite or something. Then you can just trade a Magmortar for an Electrivire for next awkward trade evo.

The pokedex grind is real.

GTS would be pretty handy if 99% of the asshats didn't ask for legendaries or level 90+ Pokemon for the most mundane of shit. Anytime I happen to come across a reasonable trade it always gets taken before I can initiate it. Fucking annoying.

About 60% complete and it feels like it doesn't end.

I bred a shiny Meowth with it recently, after trying over 1500 eggs normally without any success.
Got a shiny Magikarp within 150 eggs, but wasn't too thrilled at first with the IV spread.
Did a bit further research and found out that skipping eggs can result in shinies with other stats because of the egg generation this gen.
Managed to get exactly the Meowth I wanted because of that.

P.S. Swapping the Destiny Knot and the Everstone between the Ditto and the parent doesn't seem to mess up the egg generation. At least, not in my case, where both parents were 6IV.

I'm going for a shiny Mareanie right now, but I have a question regarding swap breeding.

I think if the shiny turns out to not have Regenerator, I'll reset to before I received the egg (assuming the last point I saved wasn't too far back) and switch out the Mareanie with another Pokemon with the same gender ratio, but probably a different nature. This will work, right?

Can you expand upon what you mean by "skipping eggs" to alter the stats?

Also, does anyone know If I wanted a mon with a specific nature, would I need to give my gyarados an everstone as well? I know putting in a mon with no gender/specific gender will fuck up the process so I was wondering if it would cause a similar messup. Basically would it make a difference if I did no everstone gdos -> shiny magikarp -> reset -> everstone on the desired mon, as opposed to everstone gdos -> shiny karp -> reset -> everstone on desired mon? It isn't too big a deal in the end, I'd just have to keep the stone on my gyarados.

>>31059803
An egg is made up of something like 30 random rolls, most of which are IVs. Rejecting an egg counts as one roll, and offsets the next egg and all after it by one. That's means the IVs will be rerolled. But it also means gender and ability are rerolled, as well. The reason shininess can be maintained is that with Masuda method and shiny charm you have 8(?) rolls, so there's a big buffer. If the original egg turned shiny on the fourth roll, rejecting (skipping) an egg will offset it so the shiny is rolled on the third opportunity and the other aspects of the pokemon are changed.

There's a chance your buffer won't allow this, but you can always undo it if so

Quoted By: >>31060142

>>31059676
The normal shiny swapping method uses the eggs being generated in advance. However, in between these eggs that you normally take, there's more data for eggs being generated. You can access this data by rejecting eggs. Usually there's between 12-14 "hidden" eggs that can be accessed by constanly rejecting eggs, hatching and retrying.
Likewise, there's usually hidden shiny data generated around the one shiny egg that you hatch. This data comes in the form of "patches" of shiny data. So, by rejecting the shiny egg that you would normally get, you can get access to shinies with stats that you normally wouldn't get.
Pic related is the findings I got when looking for my Meowth.

There's a pretty nifty guide on Reddit you could also check out.

Cutiefly, I tried SOS chaining twice with 100+ encounters and no luck, so I moved onto Masuda since I want to have one with nice IVs for Battle Tree anyway.
>last found
Abra
>how long
Around 2 boxes, didn't really expect it because I was just going for nice IVs with its HA. Unfortunately it had garbage IVs so I chucked it in with the rest of my shinies.
>method
Masuda, SOS Abra is annoying.
>charm?
Yes. I don't understand why people try to chain without it.

Dude some bro on /VP/ gave me the secret - using Relicanth on the GTS can get you literally anything including the UBs and the trade evos

Relicanth fishes at 1% in Poni, but just save in front of a bubbling spot where it's 10% chance. Reset if no oldfish and eventually you'll get it. Then clone via ditto and flog those babies on the GTS

I know dhelmise was a good alternative too a week or so ago but the 'economy' or whatever on GTS might shift, castform is also a good bet if you can get one. I had better luck with relicanth than those others but results may vary.

I got my shiny charm tonight, feels good man

It will help someone though, you're dumb if you think it helps nobody.

Saving that Masterball could help a ton in the future, when you find a good suicidal shiny you aren't ready for. Riolu for example.
Having the Masterball for Balltism in the future when you inevitably get it is great.

What the fuck got up your ass that made you want to white-knight this bad?

I'm not stupid, I know a Master Ball can be better spent. But I've saved my MBs in every game since Platinum specifically for peace of mind if a chance shiny appears, and this is the first time I've found one since then.

Maybe you have a "logical best practice" for catching shinies, but I always intended keeping my MB for just this specific occasion.

Now that I have a shiny I can relax and use regular balls if one appears again. My last shiny was a Bibarel in the Safari Zone, now that's pressure!

Also, the MB works well colour-wise with a shiny Meowth.

How do people keep track of the number of eggs they have hatched?

Do people actually keep more than a box of what they are hatching just to keep count? I would find the management of releasing or wonder trading a ton of boxes away when done a nightmare.

Yea I figured this was the case that people counted on number of boxes.

I am just suprised that many people let the boxes fill up that much without releasing on the spot as they go to avoid the logistical nightmare of cleaning up all the boxes at the end.

Guess I will never know how many eggs my Roggenrola took when/if I ever get one.

Is that the secret? I had a good run with apricorn ball Turtonators, maybe version exclusives are pretty reliable.
I'd breed Oranguru, but I'm too proud to do it before I get Psychic Terrain off Lele and onto a Smeargle for the egg move.

Yeah apricorn balls are a good bet on mildly desirable ones, but some balls (Moon and love in particular) are better, plus Beast balls.

Oranguru it doesn't really matter for, most people just want the dex entry.

Anon, you have to put it on a decently popular pokemon, like vulpix.
Celesteela and Lunala are the current most popular unbreedable since they're the best competitive pokemon this gen.

Honestly you could do better with Pikachu, either of the monkeys, Comfey, rare fishing Pokemon like Relicanth and Bruxish, etc.

Didn't know it was that popular. But mine is just in a Heal Ball.

Why Pikachu? I have a Fast Ball one, but that would ultimately be a drain on my friendship berries if I had to evolve each one before posting it on GTS, and it only learns Nasty Plot as Pichu and I don't want to enable people to be stupid enough to evolve it early.

Comfey is rare (5%) and only appears in the Lush Jungle, an area people almost never revisit. Doesn't matter what ball, netted me a couple UBs. Vulpix is very popular, slap a love ball on that little shit and watch the profits roll, although Pikachu is better.

As for why Pikachu is better? I can't really say why definitively, but I can copy my post from the GTS thread.

You'll catch quite a few Pichu if you look for some good sync abras outside the Hau-Oli Pokemon center, or if you use static. Do be aware that Vulpix has had a slight drop because of it's prevalence in WT, much like Mareanie.

I use only one box, and name it "0". Every time I get to the end of it, I add a number to the box's name. So when you finally get that glorious shiny, you can look at your box named "23", multiply by 30, see that there are 14 Pokemon in the current box, and then surmise that you got your shiny in 704 eggs.

I just gave this a try (just for a shiny Growlithe, don't care about IVs) first time I've seen it. This is what I did

- saved, throw a Japanese Ditto and a random Magikarp in
- ran in circles, picking up eggs as I go
- I tend to hatch 5 eggs then go into the PC and replace the hatched Magikarps with 5 new eggs, basically just cycling them in and out
- I filled a box and didn't get a shiny, so I took the Magikarp out, cleared my box, then saved and threw it back in
- in this batch my 18th egg was a shiny Magikarp, so I reset and instead of throwing Magikarp in I threw in Growlithe with Everstone
- 18th egg was shiny Growlithe

It definitely works and I would say it's worth doing. I never realized how long Growlithe takes to hatch after doing a batch of Magikarp eggs. I probably filled a box in 15 minutes

>Non-shiny

I WAS trying to get a parent for MMing. Was setting up the IVs and everything. It just happened that the shiny appeared right when it did. Which wasn't a moment too soon, I might add, since I had just put in a good 5V parentpod.

You can if you want to heal up or take a break. Otherwise it rolls over and starts at 1 after the 255th encounter.

SOS chaining for a Zubat is a pain in the ass, constantly being confused

How long should I be chaining to kind of expect a shiny to pop? 30? 70?

Great idea, will have to try that on the next shiny I try to hatch as I am easily over 200 eggs in already without having done that.

It's so annoying to hunt Pokémon with low calling rate like Oricorio, more than half of the times it doesn't even call anyone, and when it does, probably no one would come.

Fuck, I found a shiny ditto while SOS chaining, but I haven't reached the 30-mark. Should I go for it?

Wasn't trying, but I hatched a shiny Komala in a nest ball.
It's kind of disappointing for a shiny though since it's just a different colored log while the actual pokemon is the same.

Finally got the shiny charm.

Now I don't know what to MM for. Maybe Alolan Vulpix. Or Umbreon.
