Getting a Shiny Mudkip.

Ok I want to get a shiny mudkip apparently the thing to do is to keep restarting until I get one right but by restarting do they mean saving before I choose my pokemon and keep load it from there till I get one?


I need help I really want a shiny mudkip(mudkip me fav. pokemon)

Edit: btw the version is Emerald and I have tried the whole breeding approach and I hav eover 100 mudkips no shiny.

There's an entire thread for shiny discussion, but I'll go ahead and answer your question.

The odds of getting a shiny are 1/8192. So unless you're very lucky, it'll take a long time to get your shiny Mudkip. Theoretically, at least 8,000. But yes, you save before you choose Mudkip, then reset the game until you send it out and see the sparkles.

Good luck.

My one and only sceptile, was obtained by breeding thanks to a benine spirit that could manipulate gameboys at three PM. Still, I suggest you keep on breeding in emerald because that way one can manipulate natures and iv's.

Ok Im confuzed with the whole benine spirit deal and im not really concerned with natures and Iv's me just want a shiny version of my favourtie pokemon.

Black widow I thought so I knew it happened with shiny gyarados in c/g/s but I have never caught another shiny =( when I first played crystal I had no idea what shiny was but I think I caught a shiny cause I had pokemon with weird colors(shhs i was young!) and i battle many ppl that had pokes with weird colors so I was confuzed.
