Shiny Hunter
^^^ Glad to see I'm not the only person who's first thought was 'seriously?! do you know how long it takes to hatch eggs?!?!' lol
In any case, I think I am warming to 1/4096 RE odds. It doesn't sound quite so ridiculous, especially when you think about the hunts that are going to go over the odds and end up at like 16000 anyway. I hope it doesn't get any lower in the next games though. And I still think 1/682 MM odds are too low....but as I said, I might get used to it. Half odds is a big jump, even if it were from a ridiculous number like 1/100000 to 1/50000....that would still be a big jump for people who had gotten used to 1/100000. And even if I don't get used to it, I won't stop hunting. My view of shinies will likely just shift from 'super awesome things that you're lucky to have and you'll probably only ever have a fraction of the total number of pokes in shiny form' to 'cool and pretty variants, will aim to get all pokemon I really like in shiny form'. Some people would probably see that as a good change....I don't really know but it's not like we can change it now anyway.
In any case, I did a few more HG REs and I've also started another wave of MMing on White (I tend to hatch 150 eggs at a time). Not really expecting anything, just trying not to fall out of the loop. Even if I only do like 50 eggs a day, at least I'll get there eventually....I hope.
