I ended up staying home sick today, which sucked, but it turned out to be kind of a blessing in disguise. I decided to hunt a little bit to cheer myself up, and I was going to pick up my Y version originally, but then I thought, "nah, I haven't touched White 2 in a while, let's do some SRs for Braviary." Well, I'm really glad I did, because after only three (!) SRs today and 1003 SRs total, I got myself a shiny Braviary!
I don't think I've ever been so shocked to see a shiny appear - it's certainly the fewest number of encounters I've ever done on a particular day before finding one. And I mean, if I had gone to class today instead of staying home, I wouldn't have found this, so I feel incredibly lucky. I guess the universe wanted to make up for my getting sick, haha. ^_^ I caught Braviary after whittling its health down a little and throwing a few Great Balls. I named him Freedom, and he has a Brave nature with his HA of Defiant. The nature isn't too good as usual, but I guess it's better than Modest or Quiet... XD Anyway, I'm still in disbelief over finding him, and the fact that my White 2 BQ has gone ridiculously fast - I only started it back in June, and it's already halfway done, with my longest hunt so far being less than half the odds! Hopefully the rest of the BQ continues to treat me this kindly.
I've been planning to hunt Volcarona as my 5th BQ member, but I forgot that you can't get to it until after beating Clay, so I think I'll trade over a Pokemon with Surf and hunt in Mistralton Cave for Axew or Boldore next. There's a decent chance I'll end up with either a duplicate Aron or a Woobat, but I don't really mind as they're both great shinies. As for my other hunts, Lugia is at 7600 SRs, Route 12 is at 800 REs, and Route 114 is at 5800 REs. Hoping one of my longer hunts will end soon ^_^
Good luck to all of you on your hunts, especially Cpchris, Lorde, Cyberra, and Thibideau!
