So um 70k on feebas/repel tricking and this happened



I really don't know what to say, I don't deserve this, but we take those! 
 

I return to flex with my 4th egg shiny.

My 5th and newest! Was hunting very slow and casual for a week nothing too hardcore for this one. Used almost 600 berries for this one. 

First Shiny of 2024! 12th OT

Team [Mr]'s Shiny War 6: Bug Catchers Vs. Fishermen
Sixth Edition of the legendary bi-annual [Mr] team shiny war Event
(This event is for in-game [Mr] Members only and NOT open to the general public)


(Thanks JMmainard for the artwork @JMmainard)

Team [Mr] is hosting the 6th edition of our legendary bi-annual SHINY WAR event for all of our (in-game) team's shiny hunting members to join. This is a 1 week long, 2-team, group shiny race. Every player wishing to join can sign up and will be noted down and then drafted to 1 of 2 groups/teams on the day the event starts. Each shiny found during the week long event will gain points for that player's team, and at the end of the week, the team with the most points wins. Points per shiny will vary depending on how the shiny is found (single encounter, safari catch, 3x horde, 5x horde, egg hatch, etc.). We will be hosting a team draft for both teams starting 2 hours before the event starts to decide who goes on which team. The captains are going to be SirDusty and xXFongusXx. You may mail me in-game (IGN: awkways) or via Discord to sign up to participate - again, this event is for Team [Mr] in-game members only.
May the best team win!


Point system:
45 Points - Legendary shiny
35 Points - Wild Caught Alpha shiny
20 Points - Egg Hatched Alpha Shiny (25 points during the final 24hrs of the event)
15 Points - Egged shiny
12 Points - Revived Fossil shiny
7 Points - Safari CAUGHT shiny (fled = 0 points)
6 Points - Single Encountered shiny
5 Points - Double Battle Encountered shiny
2 Points - 3x horde shiny
1 Point - 5x horde shiny
+1 Point if the pokemon is also a secret shiny (ex. secret shiny found in a single encounter: 7 points)
+1 Point if the pokemon is also new to the Mr Team Shiny Pokedex (ex. hatched shiny Turtwig: 16 points), Species List in Discord
10 Points (+the bounty rewards) for the first Wild Caught Shiny Sudowoodo or Bonsly found. Note: If someone egg hatches either shiny, this bonus is no longer available. This bonus does not stack with other encounter methods or bonuses, except for +1 if secret shiny.


Please Note:
Any shinys obtained via Mysterious balls (Mysterious Poke Balls, Great Balls, Ultra Balls & Premier Balls) will not count, and will score 0 points.

 
Bonus Point Days:
For four days during this war, bonus points will apply for each shiny caught in certain formats/types.
Note: The dates are only based off EST time (from 12:00AM EST until 11:59:59PM EST).
The bonus days during this war and their corresponding boost formats are as follows:
-January 21st: Horde Bonus Day +1 Extra point for each shiny found via a Horde encounter (3x hordes = 3 points / 5x horde = 2 point)
-January 23rd: Singles/Doubles Bonus day +1 Extra point for each shiny found via a Single OR double encounter , not including safari (Single = 7 Points / Double = 6 Points)
-January 25th: No Fail Safari Bonus Day +1 Extra point for each shiny CAUGHT in safari & 5 points for FLED safari shinys
-January 26th 1PM EST through January 27th 1PM EST (Last 24hrs of War): Alpha Egg Bonus Day +5 Extra points for each shiny alpha that was egg hatched (25 points each)

110th OT ~  phase 3 shroom here we go 
 

pawniard phase one i am so back 

 

Commenting here, since the OP also PM'd me complaining about this topic:
 
To expand on this reply, "Pseudo-random" doesn't actually imply anything about the quality of the random numbers generated. Instead, it defines how the randomness pool used by an algorithm came to be (pseudo-random entropy sources), the algorithm used, or could express an RNG which can be replayed with the same seed (pseudo-random number generator).
 
Pseudo-random entropy means that the randomness of a number generator is achieved through software means (i.e. by using the computer's own entropy sources) instead of through a hardware card which reads something which is believed to be truly random (like the background radiation of the universe or electrical noise). Hardware like this is only really necessary when dealing with problems like regulated gaming at casinos, high security applications, or applications where you need a lot of random numbers really fast (like internet certificate authorities).
 
CSPRNG is a class of random number generation which is widely regarded as "secure enough for everything important in your life." It's designed by people much smarter than anyone who makes this game and is what we use for the game's economically-relevant RNG (i.e. your shiny rolls, personality values, IVs, etc.). We figure that if it's good enough to secure your financial accounts, it's good enough to make your shiny rates fair.
 
For implementation-specific concerns, dive into how Linux generates random numbers.

November has been an interesting month for the team, and has been a bit slower than usual shiny-wise due to the Halloween event lasting about a half a month, but even with that being said, we made SIGNIFICANT progress on the team's shiny-dex, with 3 of the more difficult species now out added - Spiritomb, Emolga & Drilbur. As always, thanks to @cloo (clooh) for making the bulletin and @Servor5555 (xXFongusXx) for helping with the count. Proud of everyone, keep up the good work, and lets have a shiny upcoming holiday season!

Team Mr November 2023 OT Shiny Bulletin:

We are bringing the year to a close with an absolute BANGER of a month - 100 shinys found exactly this December, and a buuuunch of new ([Mr]) rares (>>>)! With a total of 1,177 new shinys found by Mr members this year, I hope everyone got the shiny of their dreams, but if not, hopefully you will get it in 2024. Please take a look back at the month with this bulletin below, and as always, thank you @cloo for making the bulletin and @Servor5555 for helping out.

Team Mr December 2023 OT Shiny Bulletin:

67k dry streak over, 2 phases 

Happy New Year, Team [Mr]!

As the year comes to a close, we just want to take a moment to say thank you to all of our incredible members who made 2023 so special. It feels like I say this every year, but it's abundantly clear that 2023 has been the most active our team has ever been in general. In terms of the total number of shinys found - in 2023 Team Mr members found 1,174 new shinys, which is more than double last year's total (558 shinys). As a team we came together to celebrate some memorable moments, like the historic release of the Johto region, two absolutely EPIC shiny wars, team bounties, Safari Week, and several in-game events like Halloween and this boosted shiny rate Christmas event. I can't wait to see what 2024 brings for us to experience together!
 

Thank you especially to:
-All of our members who are active in-game and in discord, for making the game enjoyable for each other, and for keeping the team such a welcoming and encouraging environment. We love and appreciate each and every one of you!
- @Martirino for managing the OT database nearly all year, with the help of @DrMcPinto (Pibb)
- @cloo for doing monthly team Bulletins, keeping track of Mr shiny dex species and encounter data
-All of our Recruiters for helping with the flood of applications, bringing new incredible members in all year, and overall keeping the team alive and healthy
-All of our Commanders, for helping with overall team management, events, and the daunting task of keeping news / in-game race up to date
-Our team executives, @WestTurtle, @SirDusty, @OHJI and our honorable founder @FlareBlitzz, for keeping me sane and (mostly) rational this year
- @Zephy for making the amazing team artwork below

First post in this thread! 19th OT shiny, First egg hunt. 21k dry on burmy but started shaking it up with shuckle. Probably 35 boxes of shuckle hatched! Was listing all on the gtl after they hatched but RNG had different plans for me!! Super excited < 3 ❤️
