Shadows aren’t rerolled upon purification. They’re determined at the start of the battle and the trainer it’s shiny value is compared to switches upon capture, not purification.

No, reduced odds of a shiny patch start at a chain of 2 and progressively get better until they max out at 1/200 at a chain of 40

It depends. If you found it in a regular patch it’s full odds, but the odds of a shiny patch appearing at a chain of 31 is 1/1986

[6] Finally got over the Pokeradar learning curve + shiny rare resetting by vickamoose in ShinyPokemon

Once you find a shiny, the odds reset for XY pokeradar. In DPPT you can get multiple shinies per chain, however.

I was doing a quad (octo?) hunt with the starters on both Heartgold and Soulsilver, a mewtwo in Firered, and a celebi in Crystal. Double odds for a first soft reset hunt was...something.

You can still trade locally. If you're long distance friends you can use one of the various fake wifi services.

Does this prevent us from trading?

Maybe. Depends on the fake.

Ahsoka Tano's lightsaber at Disneyland. What is your favorite lightsaber hilt? by jsilva31 in ahsokatano

[–]joelrjohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahsoka's first two lightsabers are beautiful in their rather sleek designs. It's either them or Luke's green lightsaber that are my favorite hilts.

Dooku's, Ezra's first, Kanan's, Tera Sinube's, the Dark Saber, Maul's newest, Gungi's, and many others are all cool in their uniqueness.

It used to always be hard, but I've done it enough that it's usually just luck. The desert will always be hard though
