[sidrick]

Whoo! Yeah, a race would be awesome, let's do it! I have to warn you though, I have never won a race, so let's go! Are you going to be breeding any egg moves onto it, or just a plain 'ol little Spheal? :P

[Crimson_Blazer]

Finished up today by doing 500 encounters. Bringin my total to 10,500 l, here's hoping for better luck tomorrow

[Dylz]

I gave up on the softreseting, I'm currently just doing random encounters in the giant chasm cave. Just hoping for a shiny.

[syrrume]

?? Wtf is that? Post above dylz ??

And dylz man, just remember that adrenaline rush when a shiny pops up ! I have every faith in you!! Good luck!

[dan2point5]

Had a few days off from hunting but I'll pick it up again today at some point.

Huge congrats on all the shinies the last 3 days, there's been so many!

[StingrayKurt]

Hey Gustavo lets have a race for our shiny to appear in the cave! Last time I said this you got ur shortly after, I hope it happens again for at least one of us!

Post above me is advertising, and I haven't had alot of adrenaline rush, only if I find a shiny that I don't have. I'm currently hoping for Sneasel, Vanillish, Delibird, Solrock, Lunatone or Excadrill. (I get alot of Dawn & Moon stones there.)

I'm currently on 2,742 random encounter, witch makes my 2nd longest hunt.

[Dylz]

Dark, are you going to hunt for a shiny in every route? If so I'll might be doing that soon too. That's gunna be awesome.

[darkdrapion]

Yeah, I'm gonna finish getting the shiny charm though, then I'll probably be doing that @Dylz

[Dylz]

That's a very nice goal, I might do the same after I finished the community hunt in December.

[Ambri]

Happy birthday for next week, Kitty and Master! Hope you get nice birthday shinies as a surprise . And congrats on the Shiny Watchog and Chikorita!

That banner's great, Callie ^_^ would we be allowed to use it too?

Got to 4500 SRs for Groudon now. I better hatch a last box of Snivy on White and then get a catching team ready for Kyurem. I have a Modest Synchronize Munna ready, but I might teach Daisuke False Swipe to help with getting his health down. Better do some practice capture runs today too! XD

Good luck everyone~

[City Of Delusion]

Ahh, its the last day of November... Cmon Mandibuzz shine!! Lol, but It would be awesome if I actually got it today but idk.. this hunt is getting closer and closer to becoming my longest hunt ever. My longest atm is Diglett which took 23 days of REing is Diglett's Cave. But as of now it looks like I'll be getting a late start on the Community Hunt. I'm thinking about MMing a ice type since its been awhile since I've done a MM hunt and I kinda miss it. Anyways, good luck everyone and I don't think anyone noticed but gratz on the Watchog, darkdrapion!

[syrrume]

Sorry to subtract from the subject! But;

this whole EV this thing? You know the thing where you kill enemies and gain an extra stat at lvl 100,

Can it be done at lvl 100? Or do you have to do it when the poke is leveliing ?

I know how to do it, but just so im clear?

[AquaRegisteel]

I know how you feel Delusion! Last day and Lugia refuses to shine! I am at 3,700 SRs now, but I am now swapping hunts so I will now dual-hunt in Undella Bay for Spheal and Route 203.

I'm at 15 REs and 1,991 REs respectively. Good luck and congratulations on Watchog!

in gen 5 you can train at level 100. if you have more questions on EVs or IVs, ask them here: http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthr...ning%29-Thread

[Luneth777]

6250 and still no sign of this whale shining. This is going to be a longer hunt me thinks ._. Hopefully it's a lucky friday, since a lot of people are having bad luck too...

[gamer_legend]

Have tough Luneth you're trio of shiny weather legendaries will soon come to be. I just today discovered that after 2 years of thinking my ruby was broken it turns out it wasn't. Which means I'm going to see if I can mystery gift me a shiny Jirachi.

[Callie-Rose]

I'm glad you like it, Ambri! Sure you can use it!

No luck for me this month, not a single shiny since October >_> 900 Bulbas, about 4k Guratina resets, not much, but ehh. Hopefully some more luck in Devember! GL to everyone next month ~

Unlucky Callie-Rose but here's wishing you some christmas luck for next month and hoping that the beautiful diamond dust snow of Mt Silver reflects in whichever shiny you catch. =D

[PaddysTurtwigFanClub]

And so it goes on... 1170 eggs no shiny shroomish!!! Some motivation please! Any way i'll hit at least 1200 tonight. This is super fun! Gl to all like my self that are experiencing long hunts, and i suppose the short ones too. This is getting fun... to say the least.

[Roseheart95]

Guys, does Rotom count for the community hunt, since it is ice-type in one of its forms, or not?

Also, would a Pokemon like Shellder, that isn't ice-type but evolves into one, count if I evolve it afterwards?

[StingrayKurt]

I think dangertrout said that it would be ok to do pokemon that turned into ice types but I know that this is a great opportunity to stock up on some official ice type shinies, I can't wait to hatch my new ice shiny!

[YNCRN]

I'll be joining in on this Community Hunt soon!

Callie-Rose is doing me a HUGE favor and helping me complete my Unova Dex so eggs can appear quicker.

I'd love nothing more than to hatch a shiny Spiritomb during December. There's been tons of recent shinies and I've been unable to hatch simply because I've been so focused on getting the Round Charm.

Good luck to everyone - excited to be joining in again soon. And thanks again to Callie-Rose!
