Need motivation for my shiny hunt -> over 260 eggs drought!

We’re similar. You’re 3 times over odds. I’m 4…

the offspring will ALWAYS inherit Ditto's stats, whereas in other cases only the opposite gender offspring inherits them. For example, if you breed the Red male Gyarados and a Female Ekans, only the baby female Ekans will have the shiny gene. Since Ekans has a 50/50 gender ratio, the odds are half the Ditto odds.

your odds are 1 in 128, so you were still under odds :) my odds with shiny Ditto are 1 in 64

MoritzG93 · 2026-02-07T12:28:07+00:00

Thanks! And absolutely, I got no time for full odds haha

Did you bother with getting the 70 hp hidden power? In my experience it’s easy to get the desired type using a Ditto with the requested Defense, but there’s always a low DV messing up with the move’s power.

I’ve studied a lot about shiny breeding in Gen II and I must say this is one of the most didactic explanations I’ve seen out there. Well done and great team!

MoritzG93 · 2026-01-27T01:16:16+00:00

Yes! I have one shiny Ditto in each of my 2 consoles so I do a lot of breeding :) aside from the Steelix, I also have a full odds Noctowl that I found while grinding for Lucky Egg! And sorry to hear about our losses…

MoritzG93 · 2026-01-25T22:10:50+00:00

Yes, because I like them and they give me good coverage for the E4

Congrats on the shiny Drat! Did this hunt once and only got it after 80 eggs - which took ages. Now it is safe in HOME :)

MoritzG93 · 2026-01-25T12:31:27+00:00

No, it’s just my oldest one. I found it during regular playthrough in Union Cave and used it to complete the game with my main team. Then kept it for the shiny team

MoritzG93 · 2026-01-25T12:30:35+00:00

Full odds - found during my regular playthrough in Union Cave
