    The Shiny Encounters Thread

    I had a very long shiny hunt that spanned over two generations - from Black 2 to Y version. The first shiny pokemon I ever attempted to hatch using the Masuda Method, shiny Cranidos. I had another very long shiny hunt to get a shiny Beldum. It was before ORAS came out, and I wanted to start the...

    Oh my god, this took a long time. This is a post I made in the Wonder Trade thread, dated April 30th. Ever since then, I've been trying to Masuda Method for a shiny Pichu. AND FINALLY. I hatched a shiny Pichu today!! I named her Honey Butter because of the pancake theme Alolan Raichu has...

    I was wondertrading the Pichu leftovers (STILL no shiny) and I wasn't looking at the screen. When I later checked the box to sort what I got, I saw that I receieved a shiny Entei. Its name was Papa. Molly Hale would have loved to get this pokemon.

    Pichu might be setting my new record for the longest shiny hunt ;_; SM shinies must hate me.

    On Wonder Trade, I got a shiny Jirachi. At first, I was excited because the OT was Tanabata, and when I googled the Tanabata events, there had been a 2014 shiny Jirachi distribution, so I was certain I got an official one. Until I discovered it was not holding a ribbon like it should... Ah well...

    I got a shiny Snover in a master ball through the GTS (someone just gave it to me for some reason) The profile says it is from Unova. Well, obviously hacked. Stats are mediocre. AND IT IS LEVEL 100. Whoever you are, thanks for the shiny... but why did it have to be level 100 :/

    At least Bottle Caps are a thing now Currently trying the friend safari for shiny Corsola because I'm on a different egg project in Moon + SOS'ing for a Corsola is a nightmare.

    I tested it myself unintentionally, and it works. I placed a ralts and a ditto in the daycare, saved, and got eggs. When I hatched the 4th egg, I got a shiny ralts. I was a bit upset because I had been shiny hunting for another pokemon for months. But I rememebered reading about the Magikarp...

    I got a shiny Murkrow from Wonder Trade :D I don't know if it was sent by mistake or a deliberate generous distribution, but I'm really excited to get my first shiny. I didn't have a Murkrow at all, so it was really cool to see that moment when the shiny form got recorded as the initial form in...

    Have you met a shiny in Sun and Moon? Was it a random encounter? Soft-resetted starters/legendaries/gift pokemon? Hatched? SOS-chained? Of course, (spoilers for who haven't cleared the game yet) I haven't tried SOS-chaining yet, but since it's gotten a lot easier to hatch eggs, I'm currently...

    I got a shiny Ralts on WT. It is Adamant, has perfect IVs in everything except Special attack, and it knows Shadow Sneak. The little hatchling is all ready to be a Gallade!! It is a she.

    I was EV training with Hordes in Y version, and I met a shiny Whismur in a horde. It's the second shiny Whismur. I'm thinking of evolving this buddy in ORAS for the Pokedex Pages. I already have a shiny Whismur from a previous encounter anyways.

    I had a few unhatched eggs in my PC so I decided to hatch them today. I got a shiny Hawlucha from one of the eggs. I did not expect that, but cool :) Too bad the IVs are horrible...

    I went around the friend safari and found a shiny Corsola! So cute! Corsola kept using Iron Defense, so I thought it would be okay to bring its HP down by using Payback, a relatively weak physical attack. But... Umbreon decided it would be a good idea to Crit Hit the shiny Corsola and kill it...

    I left a level 1 female Aron with a bunch of Egg moves and bred numerous eggs. Even when she reached level 40 or so (with all the moves logically replaced of course), all the Aron kids hatched with the mother's egg moves she initially had. So even if you leave a parent at the Day-Care for a...

    Someone offered me a shiny Cottonee in exchange of my level 1 Spiritomb. I gave the evil pokemon away since I still have the 'mother' Spiritomb with me. Then, I was offered a shiny Blitzle in exchange of my Roserade. After thinking a bit, I traded. I have another Shiny Stone anyways.
