My first shiny Pokemon !! ...

[Kamu]

...killed itself. Shiny Pineco, why!?!

There's a 1/100% chance to be shiny, opposed to the 1/8100 (or so) chance of being shiny in the normal games. So there's a high chance that you'd find another shiny sooner rather than later

Yeah I read somewhere before starting the game that it's around 1.07% chance so I was expecting a shiny at least before my third badge. It was more like "..wow." because I was getting ready to capture it and it just went poof right before my eyes.

Yeah, it's the same if you find something like a shiny Baltoy or a shiny Electrode/Voltorb

Thanks for the heads up. I'll just try to catch them right off the bat then

[Etesian]

Don't worry 'bout it, there will be plenty more...and Pineco sucks anyways lol

I'd try to get a shiny event pokemon. Much more easier and feasible since you can keep resetting

God.

i know!! i even have double shiny woobat from encounters underneath the bridge

you could try soft resetting some of those?? they usually dont take too long

[Hiroki Tatsumi]

Arent shiny more 1/700 chance? I saw that somewhere

[BlueMoonIceCream]

No, they are definitely closer to a 1% chance. 1/100 is what I know and even more with the

Shiny Charm

That's something I've been meaning to ask. How much does that increase the shiny chance?

You probably just mixed things up. Usually, the shiny chance is 8:65535, but Reborn's is 700:65535. So that's the rate, which is approx. 1.07%.

And to those of you that want to trade, either wait for E16 (or probably 17) or check the trading service topic in the Team Showcase section.

[AuthorReborn]

According to Serbii, it actually triples the shiny rate, making about 3/100 or 1/33. Then again, Pokémon luck is wacky, so take that with a grain of salt.

[Darvan Korematsu]

Yeah don't try going to catch the Exploder shinies. They tend to work against you/

[Katia]

I'll always try to catch the exploder shinies. I mean yes, they are likely to blow up, but I would rather try and fail then not try at all.

[Vinny]

And that's why you should always carry a pokémon with Damp around~

If you're looking for shinies... or in case of random Julia.

To think I changed my Mudkip's ability from Damp to Torret lol

[Honchy]

If you want to hunt for a shiny you really want, look in the battlers folder. +Almost all shinies are brand spanking new.

Wow, thanks. Whoever has Shiny Venusaur must be really luck it's beautiful lol

Sandslash looks just like Sonic wow. Thanks man this gives me an incentive to shiny hunt

Also whoever made Shiny Rapidash you did such a great job. Its firey mane's colours change into one another so perfectly, it's beautiful.

Getting Shinies with the Shiny Charm is crazy. I swear, it feels like every 10 encounters I'll get a shiny. When getting Beldum, I was able to catch it shiny, with quite a few resets. The suicidal jerk :/

On the topic of Shiny Pokemon, I'm correct in thinking that the Shiny Charm is not in the game yet? The item guide that I looked at seems to say it isn't in yet, but getting some community feedback would be the best answer for me.

Shiny Charm is available, if you answer "No" to all of Blake's questions and visit Eclipse's dad's house after beating Blake. He would let you into Eclipse's room, where the Charm is, according to the Item Guide v2.

Thanks! I probably messed that dialog tree up, but it's still good to note. It's been a while since I beat Episode 15, so I'll just make a mental note for my next play through.

(Yup, just checked, definitely messed up that side quest. Oh well.)
