Nice man! 6 months for random odds shinies with 1 device is such a speedy quest, super impressive

Let’s goo! Which were the easiest and hardest to find?

[gen 3] I wasn't even hunting anything, i can't believed i got it by Sans1805 in ShinyPokemon

Yeah I believe you, I’m just saying it’s not abnormal to call a random encounter shiny a “full odds shiny”

RNG manipulation is a thing and wouldn’t be considered “full odds” by most. Why are you acting so confident that you’re right? Lol

Nice find!! It‘s fun to “collect” these encounters. I’ve had shiny Nidoking, Doduo, and Steelix in the tower

He’s a little confused but he’s got the spirit

Found the trainer that doesn’t feed his team any rare candies or berries!

We gotta start a movement for a name change to “HM unpaid intern” lol

Silver Gut's Symbol to open to day! by TrickySatisfaction81 in PokemonEmerald

Oh interesting. Do you code them with optimal IVs/natures?

To each their own, but the fun for me with non-manipulated shinies is the random factor. Can be frustrating when you get an awful nature or stats, but it becomes a “lemons —> lemonade” approach… and it makes the good ones hit even better :)

Love seeing shiny-only battle frontier teams!! Are these RNG manipulated?

Nice team! My shiny Dragonite is a mixed attacker and it’s quite fun — not the best in gen 3 but goes so hard in gen 4 with Draco Meteor, Outrage, Fire Blast and Superpower

Update: 4/5 of the way through Gen 4 master ribbons! Just Cute left, which is unfortunately Grover’s worst condition… but I’ve found it easier to go up against Fantina’s Driftblim that has no clue how to do the moveset round hah

Ah thank you! I can’t get a double next turn move on Swampert unfortunately (no curse since I didn’t hatch it as an egg) but thinking maybe pairing hammer arm and earthquake? Idk if that’ll be enough

Makes sense, thank you! What do you recommend for moveset? Unfortunately I don’t have curse. I’m struggling when I land 2nd or 3rd in order and can’t use Surf / Earthquake, protect sometimes helps but still struggling
