THE NUMBERS, MASON!
Kinda salty I didn't get Shiny Deino, but then again, I've been trapped in my own apartment and doing Work From Home...
So shiny Deoxys and Staryu in the BAG! I still go out and have PoGo on but I'm saving my incense now for Unova week and the Go Fest make up 3 hours
If you don't mind me asking, how much do you play in order to be getting these shinies so consistently? I feel like you ypu talk as if you expect to get the new Shiny of each event, and it seems like you normally do. I always feel like I'm extremely lucky to get one maybe two Shiny Pokémon a month, but almost never the new Shiny of the event, and I feel like I play quite a bit.
I play nearly every Monday - Friday for about maybe 5 or 6 hours. I work from home doing office work so I have it on my phone with in incense running on it and just do shiny checks. On my lunch break I usually visit some gyms (although I have one right at my house now with the double distance) and get my coins that way. I used to buy coins (not anymore) so I have a ton of them still so Im never really low on incenses although right now I am but Im holding off until Unova week before I get anymore.If you don't mind me asking, how much do you play in order to be getting these shinies so consistently?

This is always why I thought that shiny pokemon were more based on your checks overall then full RNG because I always end up with a shiny after 2 or 3 incense's and checks on every mon that spawns.
and you are right, I usually get the new shiny of the event but sometimes it isnt the one I want. For example, Ive been hunting shiny Croagunk since its release and dont have one. For every event its been active in, I see loads of none shinys and get stupid repeats of stuff I already have so I just candy them (like the buneary that spawned during my sableye spotlight hour) instead of actually getting a sableye
But that's what makes it fun. I know my shiny Hydreigon will make everyone in my community jealous and its quite rare. I will end up with a shiny Croagunk eventually but the same can't be said about casual players and the rare shinys I have.I also got a Shiny Croagunk months ago. Kinda ironic how the ones the Shiny Hunters want tend to fall in the hands of casual players instead.
Congratulations on the Staryu! I haven't seen many of my own friends get one so you should be proud!Yeah, that's way more dedication than me. Makes sense. Well, good for you.
EDIT: Okay, funny and ironic. After just making that comment about not normally getting Shinies during their debut event, I just found a Shiny Staryu. Pretty cool.
Indeed. Weeks ago, during the Groudon/Kyogre events, I joined a Raid in my region wanting to catch a Kyogre because I don't have its Pokedex entry yet, but one Shiny Hunter among us insisted to Raid Groudon instead since he already had Shiny Kyogre but not Shiny Groudon. So we Raided Groudon two times and both times I was the one who got the Shiny! Traded 1 of them to him with a Shiny Giratina.But that's what makes it fun.

That was awfully nice! Like I'm not a die hard hunter for legendry pokemon. I got my deoxys but I still joined other raids when I was invited so others had a chance. Don't see why ye couldn't do one Kyogre for you to have a chance to register itIndeed.

I didn't have much time for Raids, so I'll just wait for the next Kyogre events.Don't see why ye couldn't do one Kyogre for you to have a chance to register it
It feels weird that Beldum is relatively easy to catch in GO compared to what I'm used to everywhere else. Is the line finally showing mercy to me?
