I have been quite lucky in the past with random shinys! My first shiny was a pelipper, and when I saw it, I almost had a heart attack! I hardly knew anything about shinys, and all I knew was that it was a green pelipper, and had to be rare!

i didnt say MMing was BAD or anything. i just said, REing be better than MMing in some cases, such as litwick, (floor 2 celestial tower- 100% litwick) but in some cases its worse, if ur going for shiny axew. both are fine methods, and if ur getting a shiny NOT to be used for competitive purposes, just a trophy of sorts (like my lonely sh!\wick) i'd use REing. For competitive battles, MM ftw. :p

lol my heart skipped a beat when i randomly saw shiny timburr.

Then again, how much more exciting can REing be?

shiny hunting's extremely boring, but i watch a movie while doing it XP.

PinkPalkia where did you find the moving shiny palkia sprite? I've been looking for moving sprites for my shinies but I have been unable to find them.

You could always put a Pokemon with the Flame Body ability in the front of your party. Examples would be Magcargo and Volcarona. The ability, as long as the Pokemon is in the front of the party, will reduce egg hatching time by a good margin.

I have a chandalure, but what I mean is how long the egg hatching animation takes.

My mistake i meant when using it as a synch for Virizion ^^;

I say either use an Adamant sync, or Naive sync. Since Virizion is a fighting type as well as grass.

Nature for Virizion or Munna? Virizion should be impish or jolly, depending on whether you want it more based on Sp. Def or speed. Calm/bold or modest for Munna.
