>get 3 shinies in one Platinum playthrough
>now just wanna see my first Gen 3 random encounter shiny in like 15 years
Any tips?

>>59167561

Ho-oh shiny: Looks better, worse or about the same than the original?

>>59167696
I prefer it.
If this Lugia ever decides to shine I'm going for it next.

>>59167696
Million times better

Should i go for shiny Lapras next

>>59167696
my favorite shiny. I own two.

RNG is a gateway hack of the worst kind. It's a cheap cheat, a clusterfuck of numbers and letters that aren't very well organized by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive numbers faggotry and LEGAL POKEMON. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that RNG itself, regardless of their opinion, is cheating.

However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its numerical core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of cheating faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered IVs and EVs all trying their hardest to look legal, the manipulations, peculiar, colorful "terms", the whole "it's legal" faggotry and everything about the RNG world fuels their hacking fantasies, while the pity-party in game players, backgrounds, emphasis on arguing, and overall preachiness of the pretentious make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average hacker and his sense of unwarranted abuse mechanic. Exactly the kind of shit that makes abusers and underageb& retards eat this shit right the fuck up.

RNG is basically THE hack to attract the most hated cheaters fanbase known to /vp/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this hack and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no RNG threads ever encourage the newfriends to show their faces here.

>>59169329
Good luck anon but make sure you take use rare candies to sus out each IV for its PID
>>59169331
Rng is cool but it's a little tricky in bw2. Maybe run the lottery tonight with that kind of luck lol

>>59169341
Yep I never use my candies so I managed to get its IVs for sure, Articuno and Eevee being shiny as well confirmed it was the correct one

>>59169338
I used to use pRNG method breeding back in Platinum back when that was the latest game of the series, bred myself a few dozen shinys that ended up getting left on my copy of Black because I misplaced it for a few years around the time of 6th gen, so they kinda just got left there forever. Haven't used it since, haven't wanted to, made them feel pointless.

>>59169377
It's a palette swap anon, and GF made them worthless in the switch era with how easy it is to get any shiny with minimal effort. At least with RNG manips you can ensure its stats aren't absolute dogshit (which is gonna be worthless in a gen or 2 because champions removed IVs anyways)

Anybody got a spare Dreepy lying around? I'll trade ya a Shiny Gabite or Sh-Alpha Treecko
I've also got a spare Deino and various extra starters

>>59169346
Poggies. I gotta go back and try my hand at frlg rng, looking back I think I was doing super poorly because I didn't realize you have to hard reset each attempt. Any plans for that Eevee?

>>59169682
I don't really like the purple Vaporeon or the Green Jolteon... I think I'll go with the golden Flareon. Either that or I'll wait until they add RSE and evolve it into Umbreon.

Currently hunting a Shiny Ralts on PLA. Already perfected its pokedex page so I guess it's just a matter of repeating Jubilife > Mirelands > Shrouded Ruins until I hit the jackpot.

Can someone explain me the Outbreak Method please?
Apparently if you save in Jubilife, go to the outbreak and clear the first wave of 4 there's a chance of a shiny appearing or is every wave after that also set in stone?

All right, so we're concluding my friend who, when I told him I'm SRing for shiny Ho-oh, replied "thats crazy because ho oh shiny just looks worse", objectively has shit taste then.

>>59169702
What you're asking about is permutation hunting and is usually only done with massive mass outbreaks that have a guaranteed second wave
You can do it with regular outbreaks buts not anywhere near as effective
Either way, the following is a good tool to track permutations and also tells you what to do for each step pf the outbreak.
All you do is save beforehand and follow instructions

Ignore him. It's just one autist trying to convince himself his shinies have value because he autistically searched with full odds.
His waste of time is better than other's waste of time.

When you need outside tools to "hunt", it's not using what the game gives you. Which means it's not hunts and may as well save yourself the wasted time and inject, like every other cheatnig just saves their time and effort to click the "make shiny button" in pokéhex.
>>59169988
Nice projection, but ultimately doesn't describe me. I didn't waste my life chasing shones in autistic shitbag-only odds games (still ended up with more natural shines through normal gameplay in Gens 2-5 than most shitbags here ever saw as kids growing through same eras) and known from the start the only worth a shiny has is what value the individual places on it themselves (don't trade for shinies, odds are they're cheated and I'd rather know where it came from). But I also know you may as well just cheat it in and say you found it legit, as admitting you wasted your time and effort trying to cheat it is worse than just saying "I clicked pokéhex". At least cheatnigs are honest with theirselves and their cheating, you cunts need to pretend it's all legit and above board, despite being a step away from pokéhex.

Bred a Shiny Aerodactyl in Ultra Sun surprisingly quickly. I wasn't keeping track of the numbers, but it was less than a box.

>breed around 18-20 of them
>wait I'm not using the mon for Masuda method
>switch the male mon out
>5 eggs later, out pops a shiny

Although I did have 6-7 boxes of breedjects from a previous different shiny hunt that I dropped, so maybe I was just picking up right before the motherlode.

I've never played past gen 7 for the same reason.

Does that mean in a normal Mass Outbreak, any subsequent spawns after the first four are also fixed and I'm just wasting my time reloading this save?

Yes you're wasting your time reloading the save, unless you clear the mons in specific ways and keep track as detailed in the linked webtool

This Lugia is ~3 times over odds now
I'm almost fucking convinced using ACE to respawn it has somehow shiny locked it, but I respawned Articuno and managed to hunt it successfully.

I've caught a few while mashing hard to try and be as quick as possible and they don't seem to be producing the same PID. All different natures.

I've been looking at shinyrating site and I gotta ask, is it worth getting shiny froslass? Was going to get an alpha version to match my Glalie but I'm not feeling it. My Shiny Glalie at least LOOKS cool with the red eyes.

>>59173684
>looking at shinyrating site
who the fuck does that shit?
just hunt the pokemon you want and be done with it
they're worthless, all of them. Only you can assign some kind of value to them and that is only for yourself

>>59173686
>who the fuck does that shit?
YEEESH
I just found out about it like two days ago. I was really just looking at the comments, with people bitching at each other. But you're right about the Value part. Can't argue with that. Might as well continue

>>59173663
Correct

Is it difficult to hunt for a single shiny alpha in Arceus before beating it and unlocking the MMOs anons? I wanted a shiny alpha Rhyperior for my playthrough
>>59173684
It doesn't look much different but I kinda like the XS mega.

>>59173717
>It doesn't look much different
Yeah, Shiny Snorunt looks great, it's evos not so much.

Reminder if you get a shiny Froslass its a legal requirement to do contests on BDSP so she can be a Former Idol/Vintage Beauty

>>59173717
Not really even with the slowest method, getting lvl10/perfect dex and just flying back to the city to reset it

>>59174228
Thanks! Found a good spot but I always forget that alphas are too high level at the start, so I guess I should progress until they are easier to catch.

I've gotten 4 Shiny Ralts in PLA. 3 females 1 male. Been trying to find a alpha male and no luck. Perfected the research but don't have the shiny charm (fuck that).

It's rough

Day 5 of jumping between Jubilife <> Alabaster Icelands trying to trigger Ralts outbreaks, I think I've gotten 6 but no shiny on sight.

Too bad permutations don't really work with them since they run as they can and can't really battle 4 in one go either so I just have this method and wish for the best.

Wish me luck anons, I need that blue waifu.

How do you guys have the patience to shiny hunt?
Ive only ever encoutnered one shiny pokemon in my life a shiny Electrode in ruby and i have 40 hours in the game
I was expecting to see a lot more in a full playthrough but this is the only one i have ever found in all pokemon games
I must have around 200 hours in FireRed and never saw a shiny there once

>>59182643
You just get used to it. I mostly do it when I have nothing better to do or if I don't have any other game I want to play

>>59182643
>>59182777
What he said but also I'll usually shiny hunt while watching a movie or youtube

>>59182643
I don't, I play SV and ZA where they're free or egg manip in USUM which is so brain-dead that anyone can do it. Don't punish yourself if it isn't for you

>>59182643
The secret is to not shiny hunt, instead you watch YT or whatever that doesn't take your hands or 100% of your attention span and then you dedicate a small part of your attention to mindlessly grinding for a shiny while you're doing the other thing.
Think of it as an autistic fidget spinner.
