Yesterday after a total of
20,223 REs, I finally found a shiny on my HeartGold, which hasn’t shone since my Qwilfish in mid-November (even though I went most of December not hunting, 20k still doesn’t seem like a lot in 2 months ;_
. It’s not the Miltank I’ve been hunting since October, though, but instead a
shiny Snubbull!

This is the third time Snubbull’s swarmed on HeartGold in about a month, and the 5th time since I started hunting swarms. Actually, it swarms on Platinum on the same route as I hunt Ralts, so I hunt something else when it’s swarming on that game
I sure as hell don’t need to get even more Bibarel from this route by adding another target from it x.X Anyways, I saw this one coming across the screen and was super excited! It’s such a nice shiny. Plus I’m worried I’ll get one of the other things from this route – Rattata, Raticate, and Magnemite, all of which I have already. So I’m very pleased to have gotten my actual target!
As an aside, 3 of my last 4 shinies on HeartGold have been swarm targets
So far February’s been pretty good in terms of giving me shinies (albeit quite sadistic with half of them), so I’m hoping to see if maybe I can set myself a new record month (which would be even more intriguing given it’s the shortest month of the year!). I’ll need 9 shinies in order to beat my previous record in June 2015. On the other hand, last April I found 6 shinies in the first half of the month, and then nothing the second half, so who knows
Good luck, everyone (especially
