Shiny Starter Pokemon In R/S/E

[skitty24]

Hey everyone, I have a question for you. Is it possible to get a shiny starter pokemon? Have any of you got a shiny starter in R/S/E? Is there any tricks on getting a shiny starter?

1. Yes
2. No.
3. Not really. Just soft-reset for one.

There aren't any known tricks.

This would go in the Shin disscusion, my friend.

Yes it is possible to get a shiny starter pokemon.
No I haven't gotten a shiny starter before.
As for a trick to getting a shiny starter, you can soft reset instead off turing it off and on over and over to get the shiny.

You do know that soft-reseting means that you press A+B+Start+Select at the same time instead of turning the power off and on, right? It is much faster and safer.

How many times would you think it would take to get a shiny if I did the soft reset?

Umm..................................................alot!

How many times would you think it would take to get a shiny if I did the soft reset?

It could take a couple of days, a couple of weeks, or a couple of months. It all depends on luck. My friend Demonic has been SR for a long time now and he still has not gotten his shiny treeko

There is a 1/8192 [I might be a bit off.] chance that your starter will be shiny everytime you soft reset for it. That doesn't mean your 8192nd try will result in a shiny pokemon. The odds repeat every time. You are VERY lucky to have a shiny. I only have a shiny Fearow, it rocks!

 

[Random Absol Guy]

Yeah you're right, It's a 1 in 8192 chance.

And I've never gotten a shiny starter. Though I've never tried.
