Gimme Season Pass !!!!!

[Kabuto]

I'd buy a scyther if I were you. I wouldn't even want to see a shiny in the safari because even if it was a nidoran, it'd be way too nervewracking.

[BlackDragonEX]

[BlackDragonEX]

g2g guys bye

[El Caos]

I've been trying to breed for a shiny Duskull on and off with no luck in sight. I'm pretty sure that I will soon go insane soon from all the attempts.

Quick question: is their any way to speed the egg hatching process?

[kill and run]

g2g guys bye

stop spamming it is not ontopic if you dont stop then i will tell cc to tell you to leave


edit no shiny regirock the non tallying thing really works

well i am out

and yes there is a way to get eggs to hatch faster first off is to have mach bike goes faster also to have a slugma in party with magma armor lessens the number of steps and ride the mach bike from vendeturf through mauvile till u cant keep going and vice versa and pick up eggs on the way hope this helps so good luck with your egg hunt for a shiny

[Dark_Steelix]

Good luck on your shiny regirock hunt, kill and run. I don't like the safari zone, lol I'm very afraid to go there and see a shiny pop up and not be able to catch it.

[Moeteimasu Umi]

Edit:Oh yeah i need a onix from FR or LG with metal coat so ill get 20 bucks buy FR get onix trade it to sapphire(after sevii island task) trade it to emerald then breed breed breed but i wont get far with this damn poison ivy all ovewr my face and my medication(its a cream) thatr burns like hell....well gonna go to doctors now for a check up on my poon ivy bye also i will SR for a shin onix by going into the cave getting into 100 battles and SRing ^_^

Did you find voltorb in the powerplant

Now i am training some pokemon in my boxes and then i will hatch some of the letover eggs i have in the pc. I hope i find a shiney

Yes, I found it at Powerplant when I was giving EVs.

I forgot to tell that I saw a shiny Golem at Battle Tower too.

Someone could tell me what's better to rise the chance of get a shiny? Like a high ou low ID number, or explain how works that XOR operation? Thanks.

[Tochukaso]

There isn't a way to rase the shiny probability, it is all just luck.

[zaidbenh]

[random guy]

i was wondering, i saw a shiny seaking in battle tower and if i were in the wild and ran into the grass and encountered a pokemon would it have been a shiny i could have caught if i didnt go to battle tower

[Dragonking]

Shiny update, I now Have 11 shinies.

New Addition Shiny Golbat.
Something tells me I'm going to get a lot of these in the future.

[Roselia---Rozureido]

Good luck on your shiny regirock hunt, kill and run. I don't like the safari zone, lol I'm very afraid to go there and see a shiny pop up and not be able to catch it.

I can see why. Once, in my Emerald Version, (tell me if I've already shared this story and I'll delete my post) I was looking for a Pikachu holding a Light Ball so that I could get a Volt-Tackle-knowing Pichu, and a shiny Girafarig appeared. Of course, it fled. Also, I have a new GameBoy because I spilled water on my old one and it kept turning off. Anyway, I was playing LeafGreen with my faulty GameBoy, and I was training my Pikachu. Then, all of a sudden, a shiny Jigglypuff popped up! I took great care insuring that I would catch it, and I did. Then, when I was saving, MY GAME TURNED OFF!!!!

[Tochukaso]

Currently after a shiny Diglett, I just love the blue nose!

[Lightreaper2000]

I have no shiny after around 10 playthroughs of the 3rd gen but I am now soft resetting for a shiny Treeko so hopefully I will get one soon.

[Alzi]
