Shiny Hunters

Question about Breeding.

for Ru/Sa, lets say you breed two pokemon. as soon as you recieve the egg, is it automatically determined to be shiny or not, or is it determined the moment it hatches? (like would I be able to keep resetting and hatching the same egg in hopes of getting a shiny)


And as for G/S/C, I was told that if you breed 2 shiny pokemon in that set of games, you can get a shiny baby. Is that true?

what does shining beldum look like,and I'm geussing it evolves into shiny metacross

 

[Spectreon]

Shiney Beldum is Silver ,It ends up being mostly Silver with a gold X on it. Basically everything that is Blue is Silver, everything that is silver is Gold, on all 3 evolutions.

As far as breeding goes, In RuSa I assume it is all predetermined from when you pick up the egg. Everthing else is, Stats, Nature, IV's, so I assume shineyness is too

In GSC, if you mate 2 Shiney Pokemon together from the same egg group, you will ALWAYS get the brimming with energy message. 2 Shineys will NOT mate. But if you mate 1 shiney with a non shiney, the odds of a shiney egg are like 1:64. Thats how I got most of my GSC Shineys. I have about 160 different shiney Pokemon in GSC, mostly through Ditto trick and breeding. I did run into and catch a Ledyba and a Drowzee though.

spectreon, while that is right, there is more then one variation of each shiny, just like shining gyra can be red, gold, or white.

 

[Groudon-Land]

Look for a shiny Ralts, I've already seen it but I didn't catch it

 

[Spectreon]

I still specifically want the Silver/gold Beldum line....

Hey did they do that with multiple color variations in the GSC generation? I coulda sworn somebody showed me a Red (No not Pink) shiney Ditto. But it was so long ago I coulda just been mistaken. Was I?

 

[Kyfogre22]

u have many odd coloured dittos... i have a black one thats pretty cool.

 

[Kyfogre22]

Hunt complete. finally secured me that gold karp, and evolved it to a gyrados.

 

[Spectreon]

Hey Kyfogre22, exactly how is it you manage to find shineys? How long do you usually search, what method do you use ect..... I have been fortunate to run across 2 shineys in RuSa, but never while actually searching for one.....

 

[Kyfogre22]

Hunting for a shiney starts with some research. Usually, i look for the following criteria.
1) does it swarm? What are the chances of finding it if it doesn't?
2) is it common?
From that criteria, i narrow it down to one area, then i find out this.
1) are there other common pokémon in the area?
2) is it rare or uncommon in this area?
3) is this area higher then level 40?
I try to aim for an area that is all level 40+, where the pokemon is common, and where there are no other common pokemon in that area. Well, in the case of karpy, i just used my old rod

 

[Spectreon]

how long does it take for you to come accross a shiney

do you stand in one place and do the Up, Down, Left, Right thing

Hop on the Mach bike

or run around in the grass/in caves/ on water ect...

 

[Kyfogre22]

no, no and no.

walking left and right is more efficent.
Bikes make things complicated.
No running!!!

It takes anywhere from 20 minutes to two hours to find a common shiney (karp) and two+ hours to find a rare one (spoink, chimecho).

1.My shiny tentacool has finnaly evolved from blue spots to forest green spots.
2. you spelled metagross wrong mitsirugi!!








:unknown-a :unknown-l :unknown-e :unknown-x

The unown obey me over anybody(even kyfogre22)

 

[Spectreon]

ok, I will try it.......


how easy is it on resets. I want to reset over and over to get the once per game Pokemon, and want to know if it is worth the effort... I especially want Mudkip, and Metagross like I stated before

 

[Kyfogre22]

well, if you are trying to get the shiny versions of the starters and the OPG pokémon, the best way is to save in front of it and then reload until you get it. Chances are it WILL take you awhile, but its worth it, if only for the purpose of collecting it.

Well, to start the next hunt...
Linoone anybody?

 

[Tonu]

i havent been here awhile...
theres only 2 different color of each pokemon...
....original color and 1 shiny color...
....theres no lime green Dusclops...its red...
...and shiny gyarados is always red...

no ways to get shiny pokemons in eggs (r/s)


thats it

 

[Kyfogre22]

hmm tonu... you should really do your research. want a screenie? Well, by ur logic, there are no shiny babies (except wynaut), and i can prove you wrong there. Tonu, seriously. Know what you say.

 

[Sea Crobat]

Caught Shiny Linoone, it had orange stripes instead of Dark Brown

 

[Tonu]

Caught Shiny Linoone, it had orange stripes instead of Dark Brown

cause there arent dark brown shiny ones. i have pokemon game hacker and i can see all pics of the game.
i know what i say.

 

[Spectreon]

you can breed an egg in RuSa, I know that for a fact, a friend did it.... odds are no greater or worse than runing into a wild one, as far as colors go, I have no clue... the sight I have seen shineys on, every shiney I have seen or heard of matched that sight. I wont agree or disagree as far as multi coloring, beyond reg, and 1 shiney.... I dont have proof either way....
