Hey everyone! Congrats on all your shinies! It's been crazy lately in the number of shines :O
Well, I got Y on release day and I received X that I preordered months ago a few days after release day. I was soft resetting in Pokemon Y, but I decided to finish the game first. So now I'm MMing for Fennekin in Y while I soft reset for Chespin in X. I want my first playthrough of X to be with the shiny form of all three starters, so that's what I have been working toward. I decided I will hunt for the 6th generation pokemon I like the color scheme of, and then I will return to past generations to continue hunting for any other pokemon that is not in the 6th gen. I personally feel more connected to the shinies I've had longer hunts for, so while the high probability of improved chances of finding a shiny don't appeal to me, I completely understand and respect why it appeals to so many people.
As for my endless Treecko and Eevee hunts, they have officially hit 5 months and 1 day for Eevee, and a bit longer than that for my Treecko hunt. This is becoming unbelievably frustrating. I cannot even imagine how far I am over the odds on both hunts, especially after seeing how quickly SR's add up now that I'm starting to keep track, even on such a slow process as SRing in X and Y. At least I haven't found another shiny Poochyena yet. That'd be my fifth I think...
Good luck on all your hunts, and I hope you continue to have fun with X and Y (Which is now easily one of my top favorite generations!)
Edit: I completely forgot to mention my hunt counts. As for Fennekin, I have hatched 645 eggs exactly and as for my Chespin, I have done 213 SR's (as I can only hunt this one when I can borrow my brother's 3DS, which is hard because he is still playing through Pokemon Y and uses it often.)
