Shiny Durant after
3,641 REs! Durant was one of those shinies that I eventually wanted, but didn’t really have enough priority to go out and target it specifically. Luckily this hunt gave me the opportunity to find one, and also let me find a shiny in a brand new line to mix it up from all the lines I’m trying to complete, and since it’s a single stage pokemon it doesn’t add on to my list of evolution lines to complete

Still kind of would have liked to have found a Lairon first, since now I’ll need to repel trick for two instead of one, but it shouldn’t be a huge issue. The bigger issue is that it makes Boldore less common and Nosepass more common :|
This one is Female, Naïve, Likes to run, and has Swarm. IVs are actually pretty good, especially for her good stats: 5 – 24 – 11 – 22 – 25 – 30. 24 in Attack and 30 in Speed, both of which are Durant’s best stats, plus a speed boosting nature that only lowers Sp. Def. Preeettty good!
I also realized I was being a complete idiot during this hunt: Boldore knows Explosion at level 55. I’m pretty sure I checked it for every other location I was going to hunt this line, and somehow missed it for this location. Luckily that isn’t what shone, and now I have a Damp Golduck with me should one surpass the odds and shine.
Good luck, everyone (especially markasdarkas, RaichuArcanine, pokemaster13, Tina, jrmftw, Lorde, Shy, Ruru_star, skilax1234, ChaoticInverse, Pluski, Razorbadger, and Nakashima)!
