    Shiny Pokémon with the Pokéradar

    I came SOOO close to getting a shiny Baltoy yesterday! I was being SO careful and got the chain up to almost 40. I was primarily just resetting at that point but thought I saw a good one and got tripped up. Note: if the patches you see fit all the rules listed, but two or more seem like they...

    I hate the Gravelers with their wee BEADY eyes! And that smug look on their faces, "Oh, you're gonna catch a shiny pokemon, are ya? Ohhhhhh!" lol If you know what movie I got based that on, you're too cool. :D

    Shiny Pokémon with the Pokéradar

    The events are often done in tours at local malls. I got a Celebi along with other rare pokemon at one a year or two ago. Sometimes the events are "give-aways" through Toys R Us.

Got 4 patches, two were shiny but didn't look glowy like in the youtube video so I ignored them. One of the plain patches was too close. The other was...

    Shiny Pokémon with the Pokéradar

    Actually, Shinx is the only electric type to appear normally on Routes 202, 203 & 204. Got a couple new personal records yesterday in chain lengths (yet still no shinies): 19 Delibird and 12 Pichu. Getting better, I guess.... I'm constantly thwarted by patches which should contain my target...

    Shiny Pokémon with the Pokéradar

    One really nice thing about chaining: it seriously helps you to gather hard-to-get items held by wild pokemon. :) Having put a high-level Yanma with Thief as the lead, I managed to store up several Lucky Eggs within minutes. Later, putting a pokemon with the static ability in the lead helped...
