After an enormous break from chaining, I gave it another try, and after only three in the chain, I was going for my fourth, and I found a shiny Dusclops! The patch wasn't shiny though....
Non-Shiny-Disease.. lol.. it's ok Fox.. Just try harder.. How bout chaining shinxs or starly first.. they're kinda easy.. especially shinx when u put a static pokemon in front of ur party.. if u're still confused on how to chain properly, just read the earlier post by Shuko.. it'll help a lot, trust me..
thats what i did with pacherisu..
got to 33 then i quite after ending it on that same no. 5 times *mad*
ive given up on the purple squirrel...
Bleh, I forgot the forum name so I couldn't get back here, I found it finally though. Lol. I havent chained in a while, but i'm trying again =]
What's the point of going through all that trouble to get a "shiny"?

Because chaining is not about power, which is all you seem to care about. And no one here cares if your Aggron or Salamence or whatever has been in the Hall of Fame 10000 times.
Power does not mean everything, aesthetics are important as well.
Yikes, attack the guy for only caring about power...
weird.
And it's definitely been said in this thread before that spending hours upon hours or literally DAYS upon days to get a Pokemon of a different color that you can't prove you didn't hack or whatever is really wasteful of time. Just do what you want, though.
He's not a troll, he's just honest...and the hundreds of people who come in this thread with s/n's of "Shiny hunter 440" or "SHINYFTWILUVSHINIEZ!" and leave after a day of failing at chaining reinforce how frivolous this entire method really is.
There isn't really a difference other than the one we give the shiny Pokemon in terms of the actual game, so just be happy with your twenty hours necessary to get a purple squirrel picture that does nothing except ...exist as a purple squirrel picture... and ignore the people who are justified in thinking that chaining may be a little bit of a waste of time.
I dont like to argue much, but every since I came here I was addicted to shinies. It isnt a waste of time, it just takes persaverance(sp?). If you think its a just a waste of time, then dont chain. We arent making you.
For everyone new or having problems chaining, take it from me. I have been chaining for who knows how long and I just got my first shiny.
