Ive caught two shiny ponyta!:D

found the first one after 15 MRs and the second after another two

They are both female

Which is better

A docile ponyta that is proud of its power and has flash fire

or a bashful, somewhat stubborn ponyta with run away


EDIT: I have a voltorb swarm today, shiny voltorb look great I'll try chaining them

Well congrats on the shinies. I just caught 2 shiny Nincada, and the synchronizer finally worked:D! They're both females:)!! The chain broke though because I ran out of range.
EDIT: IV's:
12/14/14/24/4/24

I'll see what the metalkid calculator puts out.

I dont see it. Why people want females? ;o I've heard people want female shinys so they can breed, but than the procent to get a breeded shiny is still minimal?

EDIT: Nice catch Inifity. 8) Shinx look so happy. ^^ I mean, with the thought that it will be trapped forever in a PokéBall and than sended out to fight for you, it seems kind off calm ;)

Can anyone give a link to Metalkid's IV Calc?

Many people say it is better than Serebiis

Congrats on the shiny nincada Pimplup.

After not chaining for a whole morning, I decided to get back to my route 228 chaining expedition. Right now I'm chaining diglett. The chain is at 11, wow :p

That blessed diglett chain managed to get to 38, after resetting for almost an hour at 37. Soon after that I saw a 100% safe patch, to my horror.
I went to it and, and...
....the chain broke to a cacnea .___.
I didn't even realize what happened. I just waited to KO the supposed diglett and found cacne staring right at me.
There goes the 100% safe patch, right down a bottomless pit.
Not only did I waste an hour and a half on that chain without a shiny to speak about it, but now my eyes hurt, real bad.
