i assume the appearance of a shiny is the same as before with the stars right? been on the lookout since playing Y, but haven't had the sound on which helps identify one too. just want to make sure the stars/sparkles are there.
 
While I've never really searched for Shiny Pokémon with the PokéRadar or so, but I just might this time.

I also do have a Shiny Charizard (hatched) in White 2. Do we know yet how the Shiny Mega Charizards looks like?

There's a sparkle animation and a sound effect at the start of the battle with a shiny.

Do we even know if the PokéRadar lets us chain shinies like in Gen. IV?
I feel like people are just jumping the gun on that one.
 
Wow, congrats!
When a shiny Ditto copies a pokemon, does it become their shiny form? If it does you should face Zygarde/Xerneas/Yveltal and find out what they look like shiny :p

From gen IV and onwards Transform copies the opponent's exact form and shininess, I doubt they would change it back now.

Plus heres my friend code for anyone who needs it. cuz i sure need them x)
0361-6000-2128 the names chuy

zoroark sounds cool though as shiny x) noctowl, foongus guy, gothitelle

Cold turkey.
Shiny odds definitely changed. EVERYBODY is finding them, including myself. It seems like horde battles increase the chance of finding shinies, because that's where I got my shiny Geodude and I've heard plenty of hordes with shiny Pokemon stories already.

I hope someone finds an all-shiny horde. Then my life will be complete.

Haven't had any luck getting shinies yet this game, been trying for shiny Tyrunt through masuda and Fraxure through the friend safari, hopefully my luck improves

Does anyone know about which shaking grass will have the best chance for a shiny with pokeradar? i always choose the farthest one away, and i have had no luck so far. I haven't found a shiny since gen 3.

Found a shiny Geodude in a horde battle. Thought it had sturdy like all Geodudes do. It didn't have sturdy like most Geodudes do.

Usually thats the case, pick one thats farthest away out of 4 moving patches.

My longest chain so far was 18 on Fletching. I suck at Poke Radar.

Also, has anyone heard the rumor about tipping $1000 and having finding shinies soon after?

Thank you very much. ^^ though I was hoping Shiny CharizardX would be Orange, haha. Can't wait to use it.

Also, that Souvenir might have something to do with Shinies? Interesting.
