Did some FS encounters this morning instead of the usual MM and lo and behold! A shiny Sliggoo! She has Gooey and Sassy nature, I have no idea if thats good or not but I dont think its the worst because of Sliggoo's already low speed stat.
Have IVs in HP and Sp. Attack. So is this one usable or is it just a trophy? s:
Don't worry, it's VERY usable
Well, considering most RE Shiny finds seem to be occuring in the Friend Safari, I'd say that REs in the Friend Safari has become an even easier method than MM-ing. Only thing is you only have a limited pool of Pokemon to choose from....
when I said "I have better luck with RE-ing", I'm actually referring to RE-ing outside Safari
I actually have FOUR shinies obtained via RE outside Safari, all four are from Route 6 lol. Two Oddish, one Espurr, and one Honedge with bad Nature.
And the Espurr actually came in less than 5 REs after one of the two Oddish.
Is it easier to find shines in the FS? Because is was only at about 20 random encounters when I found Majesty, my shiny ninetails!
Yeah, apparently it is.
First of all, I caught a shiny female braixen, hardy nature. I was hunting with a female cute charm mincino or w/e you call it. so the odds for a shiny female braixen are very, very, very low. The odds for getting a female shiny braixen are at first:
1/4096 ( The shiny odds)
33.3% for cute charm to fail.
12.5% for being female.
Not sure how to calculate this, but still. a very rare shiny ;p Also caught it in a critical capture.
I don't think Safari's RE chance is 1/4096, it's definitely much higher than that XD
But congrats on getting a female shiny while using a female Cute Charm lead
