Oh, okay. Thanks. I feel a tad stupid now. -w-'

Knowing me, I'll forget to get a male. So I'm now hatching a male.

I'm praying Turtwig will shine on my Platinum BQ. Asking the shiny gods will just anger them... It just takes forever to get your starter on the D/P/PL Games.

And good luck to everybody on their hunts!

EDIT: I'm not sure if this is to be mentioned here but, I lost a shiny Zubat while recording a video on Pokémon Tower Defense. Which I believe is still the 1/8192 chance. Not so happy.


Hey you wanna do a BQ race since neither of us has our first shiny? That might give me some more motivation...

Why not make it a 3-way race, cos I need to start my Pearl Badge Quest....

My Treecko and Totodile where frequently making eggs, like, ALL the time, but have just randomly stopped. Is this normal?

Happens to me all of the time. Fast and slow production seems to come in waves, just wait them out.

I have done 120 eggs for my Nidoran M, but have pretty much lost motivation.

Since Nidoran, both genders, have red eyes; am I correct in believing that one would count for the CH if one should shine in a timely manner?

That's right, Nidoran M / F both count for the CH

@ HGAddict, From what I understand, REing in Emerald works

Congrats on shiny shinx! Nothing like getting your first very own shiny!

Managed to do quite a bit of hunting today so I'm now at 2,000 RE's. Got a day off tomorrow as well so hopefully I'll get a lot more done.

Best of luck folks.

Nice! Consider yourself extra lucky, because some peoples' shiny Geodudes blow up on them before they have a chance to catch them!
