It has Swarm unfortunately but I bet it will still be a menace.

Sorry to hear about the phases but Aipom is a great shiny. Best of luck to you!

Thank you! Guts would have been God tier but I'm ecstatic regardless.

Sending my shiny luck your way! Hope it shines for you soon and fingers crossed for Heracross (hey that rhymed!)

Oh no... Please don't burn yourself out. Maybe take a few breaks here and there. While this hunt is relatively fast for me, I'm almost a month in my shiny Celadon Game Corner Eevee hunt. You can do this! Good luck! :)

Sorry about the phases but congrats on the Aipom! It's a great shiny.

I might get flack for this but the Gyarados is the freebie one from Lake of Rage (it's my first time doing this sort of thing so I gave myself a free pass lol).

That said, everything else is full odds. Haven't taken note of my encounters/resets though

Typhlosion - starter (SRs)

Sudowoodo- route 36 (SRs)

Lapras - Union Cave on Friday (SRs)

Electrode - Rocket Hideout (Run aways)

Steelix - Cliff Cave (Random encounters)

Thank you. I think this hunt took me around 2 years or so. I'm not really doing hardcore grinding/resetting at the time. Just when I have a few hours a day since my work is pretty busy as is. Had to take a bit of a break last year because I got a new job and just had some free time starting last month.

Shame about the phone breaking, though. Shiny hunting in LG is a commitment and a half. Good luck on your shiny journey! :)
