The shiny value is a number that both an Egg and your game have, if the two match up then the hatched Pokemon will be shiny. It requires an external tool to figure out, discussion and linking to said tool isn't allowed here.
Doesn't that mean you'd have to check each and every egg before it hatches to see if it matches up?
I thought it was suppose to save time shiny hatching

Ideally, what you'd do is get a bunch of Eggs, check their values, and see if you can find someone else whose TSV matches the PSV of one of your Eggs, then get that person to hatch your shiny.

Honey can be found on wild Combee, and Pokemon with the Honey Gather Ability have a chance to pick up Honey after a battle.

Also there is a regenerating honey hidden item that appears once per day in the Pokemon Village
And jeffery007 the move Sweet Scent does the same thing a Honey item would do.

Is there any difference in the rarity of certain Hordes? It doesn't say on the main site. I.e. on Rt. 14 I haven't seen a single Ekans horde but plenty of Bellsprout and Skorupi. And on Rt. 11 I've found heaps of Nidoran but no Starly even though it's listed.

I SECOND THE EKANS PART!!!!
And I do believe that there are certain rarities to the different. It does state that in the official Pokemon X and Y Handbook.

I have two 5IV pokemon in the daycare, one with the destiny knot and another with an everstone, but the eggs don't have 5IVs like their parents? Is there a reason why the destiny knot isn't working?

Because Destiny Knot passes 5 random IVs, you could be getting the one not perfect IV each time. And if it's anything like previous generations and breeding, it can select the same IV twice in its random choosing.

Nostalgia.
Ah, that's not exactly what I remember hearing, but good to know n.nu
So quick question on IV Breeding...
I'm trying to get a perfect Joltik, but it's taking forever. The parent Pokemon are these two:
Joltik (HP, ATTACK, SP ATTACK, SP DEFENSE, SPEED) (But he has Unnerve...so yeah...) Destiny Knot
Joltik (HP, ATTACK, SP ATTACK, SP DEFENSE) Everstone
Am I just out of luck or should I breed different Pokemon to get it? I have a ton of Joltik's with almost perfect IV's. Should I breed the Perfect with one that has less perfect IVs?
