SRing for a Shiny Tyrunt from a revived fossil in Sun.
>What was the last shiny you caught?
A Shiny Tranquill a few hours ago. Didn't have a Synchronizer at the time so it came out Sassy.

Neither. Bake a pie instead.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
Nope. I don't think I ever would.

I don't think I have one. Let's say Groudon. Yes, I own it already. Caught it years ago in Ruby.

10 out 10. As always, black Shinies look cool.

>What are you currently hunting and how are you hunting it?
SRing for shiny Stakataka in UM. I know you can do the runaway method for it too but it takes like 7 seconds longer for each encounter
>What was the last shiny you caught?
I found a random shiny Inkay a few days ago in UM, kinda disappointed desu. Lonely nature and I was never a fan of it to begin with
>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
Idk what tres leches is but go with that one
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
Not intending to but I have probably around 60 or 70 shinies total by now
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Deoxys. I caught it in Leafgreen on my bday, fully legit using a copy of the Aurora Ticket distribution cart
>How would you rate the previous posters' favorite shiny legends out of 10?
Hoenh legends are the best, 10/10

Any starter on Heartgold, first playthrough ever.

Treecko on Rubi/Sapphire, over 16k srs.

No idea what are those but I'll go with the first one because tres leches sounds funny.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
Don't care about a full dex.
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Ho-oh, gonna hunt it on this save.

Not a fan of Deoxys but its shiny is ok 7/10

>What are you currently hunting and how are you hunting it?
It's on-and-off, but Archen in Ultra Sun and Cranidos in Ultra Moon via fossil resets. Also Tepig in Ultra Moon via MM.
>What was the last shiny you caught?
I think Cranidos back on July 1st using the same method.
>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
I'd go with custard, but maybe you should go according to your mom's tastes. If she likes both, then bake the less-complicated cake.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
I am, and I'm still 22 entries away. Work and life shit have really deterred me from hunting, so it's like whenever I feel like it, I'll do it.
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Probably Giratina, and yep, I caught it in ORAS a few years ago.
>How would you rate the previous posters' favorite shiny legends out of 10?
I do like the representation of gold and silver on Ho-oh, so 8/10.

>What are you currently hunting and how are you hunting it?
Shiny Alolan Graveler in US, on and off, SOS chaining. At over 500 encounters.
>What was the last shiny you caught?
Shiny Pawniard. Had to trick a bisharp to take a leppa berry, skill swap it for harvest, and hope it stayed alive.
>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
I like custard, but you can never go wrong with ice cream cake.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
Lol i wouldn't do that if I got paid to. But im oinly at about 16 shinies :/
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Shiny Wowdon. Love that brass lizard boi
>How would you rate the previous posters' favorite shiny legends out of 10?
Giratina's a good pick, 9/10 anon.

Spinarak via SOS in Ultra Moon.
>What was the last shiny you caught?
An accidental Ultra Wormhole Audino.
>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
I know nothing about baking, sorry anon.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
It might be a long term goal, but right now I'm nowhere near. Currently I'm trying to go island-by-island in Alola.
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Cresselia, I got one on an emulator, and I'm currently taking a break from wormhole/synchro hunting it.
>How would you rate the previous poster's favorite shiny legends out of 10?
I'd say 8/10, I like the way it portrays the Earth aspect of Groudon which is kind of absent in the natural red.

Personally, no. I did find this on gts in Platinum. Used the free trial of Pokebank to bring it to X.
I think it's interesting. People say MYSTRY Mew is the most hacked event but I've never seen another shiny untouched one

>What are you currently hunting and how are you hunting it?
Any shiny in HG for badge Quest via REs, and SRing for shiny Xurkitree in UM. Should have brought more mons (was just taking a break from egg hatching) so the Xurkitree I DID find swept my Synch mon and my Talonflame. Beast Balls didn't even shake both times. Oh well.
>What was the last shiny you caught?
Shiny Bellsprout in the HG. Hoping I get a Leaf Stone to evolve it into a Victreebel.
>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
Custard sounds pretty good.
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
I don't have the patience to do so, so no.
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Really love Manaphy's shiny, wish it was easier to get.
>How would you rate the previous posters' favorite shiny legends out of 10?
Shiny Mew a cute/10 If Manaphy wasn't my favorite color Mew would be my favorite shiny legend.

Would've been happy with this lucky catch, but this is probably the 6th Shiny Cottonee I've caught in this game.

>Should I bake a tres leches cake or a custard cake for my mom's birthday?
Whatever your mom enjoys the most I guess
>Are you doing a shiny living dex? If so, how far along are you?
Kinda, I'm not going for legendaries because I don't like most of them and I don't like SRs. I'm at 106 currently.
>Which shiny legendary Pokemon is your favorite? Have you caught it yet?
Shiny Kyogre is pretty rad looking. I obviously do not have it.
>How would you rate the previous posters' favorite shiny legends out of 10?
Shiny Regigigas looks fine, I guess, 6/10. Shiny Magearna's Pokeball form is 5/10, and the regular form literally does not change color as a shiny so 0/10.
