Chain Egg Breeding for Shineys

[Shadolance]

I know in ordinary Pokemon games if you chain 40 of the same Pokemon the 40th one is guaranteed to be shiny if you haven't already encountered one, does that hold true in this game? If so, what about chaining egg hatching? Since the shiny rate is up, is it even a chain of 40, or is it smaller?

Thanks guys

Ehm where did you hear that thing about 40? As far as i know that's not true

It was later discovered that as long as you encounter the same pokemon that number of times, it would still be shiny. The Pokeradar just made it easier.

I don't think that's in reborn. I could be wrong, but I've never seen mention of it anywhere.

With Shiny Charm, you have like 1/33 chance to get a shiny. So if you are patient enough, you still can breed yourself a shiny easily.

Never even heard if this, but the first comment on that topic says that this is well-known stuff, so whaddaya know. No clue if this is actually in reborn, but either way, in reborn, everything has a 1.07% chance to be shiny (triple that with the Shiny Charm) and unlike the main games, you can use cheat engine to hatch an egg in like 3 steps (check the Team Showcase section's pinned breeding guide to see how), so I think you're good to go regardless.

Where do I get the shiny charm? I didn't think it was in the game yet!

In a house in NW Calcenon, I think you can only get in if you don't give the Ruby Ring to Blake.

[Shadolance]

Dumb question, how do I get to Calcenon? I definitely didn't give the ring to Blake either.

probably not there in the story yet then its a city on top of the mountain after you face the pulse in amrterine mountain you will find a blue haired guy there named blake in his apartment he willl ask you for ruby ring say so keep saying no this will activate the event for the shiny charm

[Shadolance]

No Ive already gotten all the way through Ch15 a long time ago, I just forgot how to get to the city since it's been like 6 months since I've even done anything XD

Edit: Nevermind I found Calcenon, is it in the house where the girl's father doesn't believe she is dead? He won't let me into her room :/

That is the right house, but the charm will only be given to you if you gave blake the ring during the storyline. If you didn't get it when you went into that house, you can't get it right now.

[Shadolance]

Is there going to be a fix for it? Or will I have to use the walk through walls cheat for it?

[bepe]

I'd bet that it will be available through the storyline soon. The event is triggered by a team meteor member entering the house, so we may be able to get it after our next meteor encounter.

[Shadolance]

I ended up just modifying some game values to get it. But yeah damn I hope we can get it legit soon.

[bepe]

I'm sure we will, I doubt it will be given out exclusively based on that one decision with blake.
