Do you count your soft resets when shiny hunting?

I count my SRs all the time lol.

I usually end up at like 2-3, depending or not if I'm lucky. I usually get my shiny on the 5th try though. Depends on my luck that day.

I always do my best in counting SR's, but I eventually forget the number and continue until a shiny appears.

For a while, if it's taking too long, I give up counting
 
I think it's a waste of time
