Heliotrope

it shone! ^_^
Thanks for the wishes of good luck. Chimchar still refuses to shine though. I'm now at 10,550 soft resets. I saw someone on youtube whose shiny Chimchar took them just over 13,900 soft resets. I hope mine doesn't take longer than that...

I found a female Snorunt in the Dream World today; so I may try breeding for a shiny one with its DW ability at some point.

Today I am continuing my MMing hunt for trubbish. I currently have less than 30 eggs/hatched and so I really need to step up my game or have a quick hunt :/

Do you want to race? Your Chimchar in D/P/Pt and my Bulbasaur in LG since we are around the same amount of SR's. You are ahead by 50.
 
Ha ha very funny. But seriously it wasn't MMed.
You just posted 6 posts about he same Shiny in 2 pages. Do you just ignore that the title says: 'Post once per page only!'?


Anyways, after a total of 2.5 hours of running in Dark grass with Illuminate in Giant Chasm on Pokémon White, i still don't got a Shiny

To be completely honest, that rule is largely ignored nowadays.

Just caught shiny sandile of all shiny pokemon sadness descends upon me. Any other shiny would have been better. I am going on a Shiny Sandshrew hunt!
Grats! Shiny Sandile is awesome in my opinion... just don't evolve it.

2.5 hours is nothing compared to what a lot of people have been though :p

Speaking of SRing, I should get back to my SS BQ Hunt. I dunno when it will end, well over 2,100 SRs.

How do you guys stock up eggs when MMing? Do you take the first egg the daycare man gives you and put it in a box, or do you wait until you have all five and then put them in a box?

i dont store them I start biking with the eggs as soon as I receive them and once 2-3 of them hatch i deposit them. The daycare man is never waiting on me to give me more eggs that way and I dont waste any time getting more eggs while hatching the ones I already received.
