I'd been chaining Miltank for the last week, with no progress. Yesterday, I figured i'd try once more. Got my chain to 40, reset for about 15 minutes and...
Congratulations, I love shiny Ninjask... I hope you get the Jolly one you're pulling for.

My best chain: 14 Roselias in Trophy Garden, then a staravia came along and broke it. I shall try again, and maybe just find an eevee in trophy garden. I can't find one ;-;. Well, I hope I can find a shiny.
I managed to snag two shiny Starly yesterday. I seem to have the best of luck in that route 201 area.
I've had a lot of embaressing breaks though.
This one time, I was chaining larvitar at night alone in my room, and Azlef was still roaming, and all of a sudden when I'm at 20 something, my chain snaps before I even walk to the next patch and I hear the dramatic Sinnoh legenary music.
Oh geez, I totally freaked out,
I knew what it was, of course, but it was still startled me. x.x
I was chaining for the first time in around six months today, i got up to 29 Doduo and i got distracted by the tv and walked into a patch that i didn't see shake and i got frustrated.

I don't think Azelf roams. Azelf is the one at lake Valor. It's (last time I heard) Mesprit which is the pink one ;481;, and Crescelia ;488; who roam.No luck still, the Roselia chain is still my longest one of 14.
My chain records are 75 Magnemite, 123 Gastrodon, and 92 Voltorb. Advice, go chain at Route 222. There aren't any good pokemon there, but the grass is HUGE so it's really good practice. I watched videos when I started chaining, and they were useful, but you really have learn for yourself. You can go to patches more than 7 steps away and stuff.
haha route 222 was the place I practiced too! Its the best spot imo. I got electabuzz skitty and magneton there on my first day
Anyways, Ive had my chain broken by Mesprit (or whichever one roams)... Kinda stinks because I usually soft reset when my chains break (whats the point if you haven't gotten any shinies yet )
anyhow, today I was chaining beldum and found a shiny at the 3rd chain lol... Managed to false swipe it before remembering that it only knows take down and is the hardest stinking wild pokemon to catch that isn't a one time encounter >:O I'd bring many masterballs to chain a beldum if you want a good natured and IV one...
I was once chaining at Route 205. I wanted a shiny Chimecho, so I was planning on chaining Chingling. I used the Radar, and went into a patch of grass. It was a normal patch, no sparkles at all, and it was a shiny chingling. At chain 0. My first chained shiny was a Pikachu at like 18 at the Trophy Garden. I love getting shinies this fast, but it does make it kind of easy, you know?

I know, I paralyzed a nonshiny beldum and got it to like 1 health and barely caught it before it used take down. I want a shiny Metagross badly but it's so hard to chain in the sandstorm. I got to 30 something and broke it and I was like noooo.

I got the chain to 40 first try... And I seem to do that alot
anyways, got 3 beldum with 2 masterballs... and I'm not chaining anymore xD all of them have either a horrible Nature or Ivs
Anyhow, I just found out that in the trophy garden, other pokes can appear even if its not their day.... like Igglybuff for example when it said Ditto is appearing that day. Does anyone know if the chance to find the old daily pokemon is worse that what it was on its original day, or if the daily pokemon for today's date has an added bonus for finding it?
