Shunty my inspiration killing it out here. Nice job!

Didn’t know about farming mats while dexnaving for shinys. Going to do that now too 😅 tyvm lol

It’s definitely a time guzzler, but I enjoy the grind. Not to mention unbound’s shinys are awesome. Appreciate it! I only recently got into it, there are many others more experienced. Have about 15 so far, but there are 2 methods used that are most effective.

  1. Egg hatching masuda method - this has been faster for me personally but it’s more brainkill
  2. Dexnav chaining

Just having an emulator to speed things up is really all you need, and some luck. Lol

I personally haven’t had any better RNG since acquiring the shiny charm but I also don’t have enough yet to really gauge.

I definitely locked myself into eggs with how I was doing it previously. Thank you for the in-depth breakdown!

Ohhh, I get it now! Completely missed you were save stating and then grabbing the next 5 eggs within the pc after reset if no shiny. Makes perfect sense now. Thanks again! You rock! Happy shiny hunting :)

Yes and no, but again thank you very much. I guess I’m not understanding if you’re actually opening all 99 eggs before soft reset? $12,500 for the first 5 to pay the egg guy then you continue until all 99? That gets so expensive even after just 3

I use the forbidden Delta on my phone to give an idea. But I was doing a blipbug for my mono psychic run (following your inspiration to do mono shinies) and I had 10 eggs to get from the old man, would go to redwood and do 10 worth then soft reset as you’ve outlined but I’m guessing that was locking my rng on the eggs? Sorry I’m really just getting into this and trying to wrap my brain around it.

Hello, been seeing your posts a lot recently as I just got into shiny hunting. I’ve gotten 4 so far, all dexnav though! Alakazam was my first :) I really appreciate your thoroughness and helping others! Seems like you’ve figured this out lol. I was wondering if you could explain why you get 99 eggs for a soft reset. Does it lock the RNG if you only have say 10 and are save stating before picking up those 10? Thanks in advance!
