>>55565868>Any good areas for those?Copying from a reddit post since I think it is very good and I hunted in all these locations before and they are good.
Route 7: To the left of the daycare below the Cave entrance
Route 5: In the middle, there is a big, nearly square patch of flowers.
Azure Bay: Around the area where TM 81 X-Scissor is found.
Pokemon Village: Reached from Snowbelle City.
Route 14/Swamp beginning is a bit tricky location.
Route 16 - Yellow flowers by the fishing shack. .
Santalune Forest - T-shaped grass after Youngster Joey.
Route 10/Menhir Trail - Tricky location due to presence of stones
>And how does it compare to DPPt?On diamond, pearl and platinum I think if you find a shiny patch you don't break your chain, while on X&Y I am pretty sure your chain breaks if you go to a shiny patch.
I particularly find X&Y pokeradar very easy and very fun, got like 50 shinies this way. The elemental monkeys,I had to use friend safari to get them, since there was no good spot to use pokeradar on them
