the real ones are already pregaming

What games will you be hunting in this year, /vp/? Any particular targets? Repel tricks? Gotten any early ones already?

>what is safari week?
Annual shiny hunting event, just hunt for shinies in the safari zone (ORAS/friend safaris don't count, obviously). Started by PikachuParadise like ages ago, run by AbsolBlogsPokemon today. Here's this year's announcement: https://youtu.be/K0VUJurn-nk

>what are bait strats and how do they work?
In FRLG only, due to a programming error, there is an optimal pattern of throwing bait and balls that can significantly improve your overall chances of catching certain pokemon compared to just using balls (Chansey benefits the most: 19.08% vs 10.28%).

>why in god's name would you want to shiny hunt in the safari zone of all places?
because it's fun. catching it is just an added bonus
