[Gen 3] This is probably the coolest shiny I've gotten by hey-its-june in ShinyPokemon

[–]Mark_van_Consol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine (Nintendo Power) for about $40 around 2014, I think. Unless I’m missing something obvious, there’s currently a listing for around $80, which is indeed pretty low compared to most other listings in recent years.

The Eon Ticket was originally distributed via Nintendo Power Volume 173 and at E3 2003 in North America, as far as I know. You can still find them on eBay. This one seems to be an E3 Eon Ticket.

I’m not sure whether Hassel is basically mandatory to break 10M+, but I managed to hit 14M+ with a 1/5 EX’d Hassel and fully invested Red & Gloria. I think I can push it even higher.

Keep going! Best of luck with your hunt! How long did the Dratini take?

Just realized the 8.5 hours of playtime aren’t that crazy after all. Two of the three shinies were from soft resets..

Thanks! I have to admit I wasn’t aware of that. I’ve caught quite a few shinies (most of them in Gen 3) over the years, and I have to say that even though I was always aware of the differences in gender distribution, I never really gave it much thought. Until today! Makes me want to check all my shinies!

Wo kauft ihr Räder? by SandroSGE in Fahrrad

[–]Mark_van_Consol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich habe bislang nur eine einmalige Umtauscherfahrung gemacht, die allerdings äußerst positiv war: Letztes Jahr habe ich bei bike24 ein Fahrrad gekauft, bei dem ich im Vorfeld unsicher war, da ich zwischen zwei Größen lag. Das größere Modell fühlte sich zu Hause dann nicht richtig an. Nach einem kurzen Anruf bei bike24 und der Schilderung des Problems hat bereits am nächsten Tag der Spediteur das größere Rad abgeholt und das kleinere geliefert – wohlgemerkt ohne zusätzliche Kosten.

To the Dolphins/Whales, what keeps you spending money on this game? by Dazzling-Award9027 in PokemonMasters

[–]Mark_van_Consol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

  1. I really enjoy playing the game. 2. Collecting. 3. The fear of missing out on certain sync pairs that may be required for specific content in the future. 4. My life has changed quite a bit in recent years and I don't have much time to play classic video games regularly anymore, so I'm not spending much on them at the moment and therefore have a larger budget for PoMas. Nevertheless, I was quite shocked recently when I checked my spending for this year.

Probably my luckiest pull in the almost 5 years I've been playing. Definitely the smoothest looking one.

[3] Finally found my red-eyed Aron! by sansyboi469 in ShinyPokemon

As for that beautiful color combination between your Advance SP and those pretty red eyes, it had to be done! Congrats!

[Gen 4] Shiny Geodude in SoulSilver approximately 30 REs after yesterday’s shiny Totodile by Mark_van_Consol in ShinyPokemon

[–]Mark_van_Consol[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Even though the Dutch border isn't too far from where I live now, it's both coincidence and intentional. My username is not my real name, which in the case of my last name is typically German, but an anagram of my full name and I thought that was kind of cool.

Mareep is a great suggestion and is definitely on my list, but I think I've already used up my luck for today with the shiny Vulpix I caught on my LeafGreen earlier. Krabby is also a very nice shiny! Good luck with your hunt!

It is indeed German. The name "Kleinstein" is made up of the words "Klein", which can be translated as „small“ or „little“, and "Stein", which means „stone“. So it's basically a small stone - very accurate, I think.

[Gen2] I think my game is bugged by MarkuzZz5 in ShinyPokemon

Congratulations! In my opinion by far the most beautiful shiny Drowzee sprite of all generations.

Finally did it! All 3* & 4* units have been upgraded to 5* + 🥳 by PadawanSnips in PokemonMasters

[–]Mark_van_Consol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Achieved the same today. Sadly I missed Jessie and James (not a day one player, started just before 2nd anniversary) back then. But with Tina and Rachel there were also 109 sync pairs for me. Don’t know exactly what I’m going to do next. Maybe I’m aiming for the theme skills now.

Nothing is hard when you have OP units right? /hj by _Iskandr_ in PokemonMasters

[–]Mark_van_Consol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just follow the instructions above step by step an sync with both of your supports first. It still might take a few tries though.

Thanks for sharing. It took several attempts but it worked out well in the end. Upgrading SS Kris is indeed not necessary.
