I'm still MMing deinos, this one just hates me (taking about twice as long as beldum took, i've only done 2 successful mms so far and that was the longest).

Anyway, I have a question: You can get monkeys in pinwheel forest?!

Grrr I'm really mad right now. I found a shiny Sewaddle after 1,026 REs and after I ran to get my camera, on my way back I was so clumsy I tripped with the DS and it ejected the game out and my shiny was lost...

Ugh the hunt is back on with 1,030 REs so far and no other shinies.

lol You could of just put the DS down then grabbed the camera, you know.

One in the hand equals two in the rustling bush. :)

I know how you feel.
Deino's taking ages for me too. Longest MM ever. And I've done Mudkip, Treeko, Skarmory, Chikorita and Gabite in Diamond beforehand. Thing is, we're supposed to be luckier in this gen. ^^; Bad luck I guess!

Since hatching eggs is really boring me, I might also go ahead and SR in Silent Chasm once in a while for Kyurem, for a change. *>.<

Still hatching for now though.

If someone gets a shiny petil or cottonee, I wonder if they trade it to that npc if the npc battles with it as a shiny.

Just out of curiosity...

Where are you all doing your encounters in PW forest?

I'm doing mine by that little pond near where you get the Grass knot TM.

Caught my first Venipede there, so..Hoping for one of those XD

lol i hate scolipede swadloon and petilil,tranquill so many encounters

Let's go to the beach, each.
Behind for what encounter/SR per minute or what?

I'm behind in terms of the number of encounters/soft resets. I usually do about 150 soft resets for Shiny Kyurem per day. I try and stick really closely to that number, but I've recently began to slow down and I haven't been able to reach my daily quota. I'm also behind on my Shiny Frillish hunt since I haven't done as many encounters as I usually do when I'm hunting for random encounter Shinies. I need to dedicate more time to both hunts or else I'll be way behind. I guess I just like being on task.
