Everyone who wants this stupid thing uses it for Masuda breeding anyway, at least now I can complete the Pokedex and not feel like I'm getting punished for finishing the game before shiny hunting.

Mass breeding's still a thing, and that was always the way people got most of their Shiny rolls anyways outside the "basically gives you free Shiny" stuff like Adventures, Dexnav, etc where the Charm is nearly superfluous. Granted, it's fucking stupid that the Charm works the way it does currently, but it has its purpose still and you'd barely notice its absent influence on other Shiny rolling anyways.

Dogshit take, the fact that you cant randomly run into at least 4 shiny mons per run is already lame af, they don't add anything there is no reason for them to be so hard to get

You act as if shiny Pokemon are anything but pellet swaps. If they had better stats or something I would agree with your argument.

If shinies are made more difficult to obtain then people would just shiny hunt in the games where it's easiest like Gen 7 (Ultra Wormholes, SOS battles) and Gen 6 (chain fishing) instead.

They're not coping they're asking a legitimate question. Lots of retards attribute legitimate coding errors as intentional design and vice versa. Case in point the fishing mechanic changes aren't the result of a bug like they were in the originals.

I also want to know this too. I'm honestly leaning towards it being an intentional design choice to mimic the lack of a charm in the original while not completely getting rid of it to satisfy method hunters. I have no idea if any of the data miners weighed in on this, but that's just my own theory.

The whole idea of shiny hunting is just perverse to me. Encountering a shiny should be a happy bit of luck while playing the game. It goes against the spirit of its implementation to hunt for shinies.

I understand. I've got plenty of shinies from hunting, and it's a mild satisfaction.

Last month I was dicking around and randomly encountered a shiny quagsire at full odds. I was actually pretty excited in a way I haven't been for one since I was a boy. I'm now no hunt because it feels so much better getting that once in a while but of luck.

Wish SWSH didn't make it piss easy to avoid wild Pokemon though. I probably encountered less than fifty my whole playthrough.

Yeah but people only do full odds hunts for gatekeeping faggotry anyway. If they implemented halved odds from the original probability in the next game they'd hunt there just to post on reddit about how much of their life they wasted.

Unironically just inject. You can alter the stats and catch info to be exactly identical to reality, there's no point in doing it genuinely. It's like still hunting for rare Pokemon cards when there's a $20 machine on Amazon that can print replicas to perfection.
