Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

My chain of Tauros broke at 35, 39 and 37. Frustrated, I went to the route above Sandgem and chained Sentret. Got to 40 on my first try, resetted a few times, encountered 1 shiny, caught it and flew away. :p

Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

Hi everyone, long time no see. Not sure if anyone will remember me or not as I haven't been on since last July. I went to Toys-R-Us to pick up a Shaymin and it kinda got me interested in Pokemon again.

Tried chaining some Farfetch'd today but... its been a while. Chain was decent, just didn't catch anything.

Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

Try chaining today's swarm first. Generally you are going to have the best luck with that. (Unless its something in a snowstorm or sandstorm)

Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

Any tips for chaining I have just began and wanted to know if there were any tips other than to use repels, and going to the space of grass furthest away.

It will take some practice but you will get better at it. Still, some of it is just pure luck at times.

Eevee, welcome to chaining for shinies. I would suggest you read posts #1501 and #3261. Practice, practice, practice. And above all exercise patience.

And let me add, your first capture of a shiny that you deliberately chained for will be one of your most satisfying experiences in gaming -- hands down.

Good luck!

You want challenging? Do Beldums. If you can pull those off then I'd say you're good for most things.

Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

Finally a shiny I caught by myself! Shiny Ponyta on a chain of 2! After a very unfortunate 36 chain with nothing.

Eevee B - Congrats! Pretty cool, huh? You might try Shinx as an easy follow-up.

Re: Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar

Go for it Eevee B. Shiny Roserade is awesome. I have a few of them, and they rocks. Just dont forget to bring your Modest/Timid Synchronizer.
