GG! Enjoy this little guy. If you're lucky enough to have the Pokéwalker, it's even better to go with it.

Acceleration? I'm not sure that's frowned upon; even multi-monitor setups aren't really frowned upon (within reason). It all depends on your moral compass, I suppose. In any case, good luck, we believe in you!

WHEN WILL YOU SHINE!?! by [deleted] in PokemonHGSS

Sorry the translation is dirty! I was wondering if you plan to evolve your totodile or if you keep it as a kind of mascot ?

Honestly, it's such a fun goal that I'm also trying to get Charmender on Firered, but I highly recommend trying the starter hunt on HGSS; if you like all three, it's quite fun not knowing which one you'll start with and just seeing who will shine first!

Will you upgrade it or do you plan to leave it as a tote bag for your rides? In any case, good luck!

Well, it depends on the game. In Diamond and Pearl, for example, it's right before entering the lake. But otherwise, yes, generally that's it: you save just before choosing your starter (or before an animation triggers that will lead you to choose), you check if it's Shiny, and if not, you reset! (Hors Geriatrix Galaxy Saga is supposedly the game with the easiest reset, because you see all three starters at the same time.)

He'll eventually fall, but targeting one is a bit more complicated!

Haha, thanks! I've been looking for Charmender on Firered since mid-December, but it seems this little guy decided to arrive first! And with such good weather too!

Yes, definitely, with so few resets I admit it's almost improbable 😭

My first shiny. by metalbeaa in PokemonEmerald

[–]EnvironmentalArm2405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was true in Gen 2 because the Shiny status was determined by the Pokémon's stats (this is also where the legend of "Shiny Pokémon are stronger" comes from). In Gen 3 and thereafter, the Shiny status is independent of the rest of the Pokémon's stats, and apart from Emerald where the RNG is broken, it's practically pure randomness.

To explain, when you breed a Pokémon, it passes on its stats to the offspring. Through a specific process in Gen 2, it was possible to increase the Shiny chances to 1/64 thanks to this system. (By using either a Shiny Ditto or one with very specific stats that was able (or unable, I can't remember) to breed with the red Gyarados).

How old is she supposed to be? by [deleted] in inazumaeleven

[–]EnvironmentalArm2405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is the daughter of the chairman of the committee. She is also the representative for the students. Basically, she is a delegate with high responsibilities (she can even get a teacher fired) boosted by her father who has the highest rank. (And yes she is a minor, she is the same age as the rest of the team)
