So I'm here posting this here, hoping admin will allow it.
A couple of weeks back I obtained my shiny charm at long last (yay),
and starting hunting and breeding pokemon for shiny pokemon
So far I've managed to get a shiny each day (two on friday which was awesome)
and then Saturday afternoon I worked on getting a shiny litwick.
So I've got a JPN and a UK litwick using the masuda method (I'm from uk btw) and I am getting eggs like crazy and hatching them but nothing... Today is monday and still nothing.
No shiny litwick. I'm like what the hell and then I saw some random youtuber video who had like 2051 eggs and then on 2052 got a shiny litwick (not sure if he had charm though).
Anyway the point is I just need some things cleared up as they don't seem to be answered anywhere (really noobish so bare with me):
1. Can it still take 2000 eggs to get a shiny even if you have the charm?
2. Dose releasing non shiny forms of the pokemon your trying to get reset your chain (if there is one) of trying to hatch a shiny pokemon (my pokemon storage boxes are pretty full up so no room for many more pokemon here.
3. Dose being online and offline increase the odds of catching a shiny? I guess it's a really crazy question but currently I've found that all my shinys were caught whilst I was connected to the internet on 3DS and when I'm not connected I don't seem to see any.
4. If I hatch a load of eggs and no shiny then turn off my 3DS dose that break the chain (again if there is one) for egg hatching?
Lets be clear I have already have hatched a Shiny Noibat, Honedge and Eevee on the day I started work on trying to get their shiny forms so just need some clarification here.
Hope this will get posted and get some help and again sorry for the lame questions.
