Just got my second Friend Safari shiny in as many days - Vullaby!

Definitely safe to say the chance of shinies is vastly increased. This was after only half an hour's worth of battles on my lunch break!

Saw the sparkles and the slightly pinker than usual head and thought "aw yiss...".
 
90 hours on the clock now and not a single shiny. Just adding it to the hundred hours from past gens that have also not ever given me a shiny.

Why, Masuda? WHY!?
 
You guys are crazy. I managed to breed pursuit onto sneasel with 31 in attack and speed, and I'm happy enough with that. :P

I feel you bro

My last shiny must have been in Sapphire, a green Whismur in the victory road I believe.

Scumbag games haven't rewarded me ever since :'(
 
The shiny rate is significantly higher in the Friend Safari (seems to be about one in a couple of hundred rather than 1/8192). I think the rest of the game is normal.

Anyway, I walked out of the Frozen Cave last night, and had to take this photo:

The shooting star took me ages to get into frame :)
 
I would like to announce that after 15 years of playing pokemon games, I am joining the shiny club.

woot!

This is worthy of a congrats, unlike these assholes whining about 90 hours and no shinies :P.

I need to try and remember to get my only shiny out of Sapphire somehow... I need something to hold at night.

No, you guys are the assholes bragging about finding shinies every two hours. :@
 
Bred a Froakie with perfect HP, Attack, Sp Attack and Speed and I'm pretty ok with it. I would have preferred the two defenses over HP and Attack but they're spread across the parents and everything else is clearly higher priority.

Is there a way to check how good the IVs the guy doesn't mention are?

I've got a few 2-3 stat Timid Froakie if anyone is interested
 
I just checked out the stats for Mega Mawile and its crazy with its insane ability. I am going very likely to use Mega Mawile for tournaments. All of the others have negatives with their benefits.
 
I've gotten some surprisingly cool stuff from Wonder Trade. Various starters, Eevee, Dusclops, Riolu. I've done my best to pass it along, but at the same time I also throw a fair amount of crap up there. For every Eevee I've given away, I've sent out 3 water monkeys.
 
Doing the same thing right now. :P

Out of 7 trades so far, of note I've gotten a Japanese Froakie and Japanese Ghastly.

Wish I had your luck, all I get from Wondertrade is Route 2 crap - boxes and boxes full of Scatterbug, all of which evolve into modern pattern Vivillon.

Yeah, it's usually really bad for me. I've managed two starter Pokemon through Wondertrade so far though.

I guess I should go and hunt for shinies now or something.
 
Anyone wants to know their Friend Safari data? I'm looking forward catching more Pokemons. Post your FC here (Mine's 2509-2219-9190)
 
I feel like buying Black 2 just because I have never played it and X/Y is disappointing for now in end game content, am I crazy?
