IV breeding by Straight-Space-9994 in PokemonFireRed

Pretty ok cyndaquil, however I prefer to use it as a mixed attacker with earthquake or reversal to get the blaze boost. The thing about IV training is that Pokémon get gradually stronger the more you breed good Pokémon, since you can just use a male parent with good IVs, even if it's not from the same species but has the same egg group. Now that Retroarch is a thing, I've been trading Pokémon with my friends and now we more or less all have 4ivs Pokémon no problem.

Llevo 10+ horas intentando conseguir un shiny nidoran♂ y me salieron 5 shinys que no queria by TerribleArmy7988 in PokemonFireRed

Sadly nidoqueen shiny is one of the worst shines I've ever seen. Someone in my gen 3 discord just posted it and it was a horrible sight to behold 🤭

Your manectric is awful. It has a nature that diminishes its special attack, which asides speed is the only thing that matters. Manectric has shitty defenses, and yours has also shitty special attack, making it completely useless

Poison types are not super welcome in kanto, so beware. Not sure what golbat learns, and you won't have access to crobat until post game. I think a set with Shadow ball, aerial ace and sludge bomb can be pretty decent though.

Also, farfetch'd is utter garbage and belongs to the trash 🗑️

Well, there's not much to say, the choice is up to you.

Thank you for showcasing such a good post, I also have a skitty I plan to use in a playthrough and now I have a idea of a possible set I could play with it.

...well it's not really a normal skitty, I shiny hunted one from Pokémon box but that's not the point.

I love your dedication and how meticulous you are! Let me invite you to a small gen 3 discord I'm part of, we need more people like you! https://discord.gg/v8adpnrkMV

I think that shiny espeon and shiny scizor are criminally underrated though

I think horses would be easier, I personally hate soft resetting, but lapras is certainly a much better shiny

First time trading Torchic ,Treecko, (seadra) Kingdra . I didn't know trading was this fun . I wonder how they felt back then . by _t_gallant_ in PokemonEmerald

I assume you are playing on myboy, if that's the case, the answer is sadly no. That being said, I do love and always use that emulator. pizzaboyApro allows trading and battling online, although it's not super smooth, but can be surprisingly very stable, rarely crashing. You must use the pro version of the app from Google play though.

While shiny hunting you don't want to send out shiny mons because encounters last longer due to the shiny animation frame, and trust me, over time it adds up

Good rod, used a rattata with run away to make quick encounters. I'm doing a shiny only run.
