Ieatdedbabies Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I got shiny starter, then I go to fight the guy on the right of the main hall and walk into grass where I see shiny spinarak. Then I go to save zigzagoon from the thug bullying him and he is shiny. WTF its the only 3 pokemon I got since the beginning of the game and they are all shiny. Has it ever happen to someone else?

Dypatome Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) Chances are, this hasn't happened to anyone else, or, if it has, only to a few other people. Now for how it's possible: Realize that everything has a chance. When you're flipping a coin, it's a 1/2 chance for it to land heads. Now, if you want it to land heads 3 times in a row, that's 1/2 times 1/2 times 1/2, or a 1/8 chance. So, it's entirely possible for this to happen to anyone here, as there is always a chance for a shiny. It'd just be much less likely because the odds of a shiny are obviously much lower than 1/2. Edit: the shiny chance in Reborn is somewhere around 700/6500, so the chance of this happening is 700/6500 times itself times itself, or .00124ish. Therefore, the chances of this happening to you are in the ballpark of 0.12%. Edited March 6, 2017 by Dypatome Yes you didn't ask for the chance, but math is fun.

Maelstrom Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Lol. Super lucky, even if it is a lot easier to be lucky in Reborn (as far as shinies go) than in the main games. Enjoy your pretties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Blackworth Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 You're extremely lucky considering that the chance is 0.12%. That's like a really low percentage yet you managed to have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
