jakexwoo Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I had 300+ hours of gameplay and I had caught only 1 shiny Pokémon which was meowth when I was grinding for amulet coin, how about you guys? I wanted to know whether I was lucky or not since I didn't use any shiny hunt methods. Link to comment
MPDH Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I think that's a question for our dear @Poufilou jakexwoo and SupaFlyNinjaGuy 2 Link to comment
Poufilou Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 The only thing I have worth flexing is this 2 battles back-to-back, 2 shinies. Random Tentacruel from leveling up, I spent the 13 minutes separating both encounters being hyped cos that was my second shiny, decided to join a team mate for hunting Trapinch, used fly, went there, pressed sweet scent once and got it. I'd say getting a shiny in "normal" playthrough is pretty lucky though not uncommon. Then, you just need to hunt to really know if you're lucky or not, while remembering that Shiny Rate Is Fair and can make you rain under-odds shinies just after a 166k encounters drought. jakexwoo 1 Link to comment

JohntheJester Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 3000 hours though some of them were afk, dont recall the exact amount of wild shiny's I've gotten I think its 8. And then, since I breed a lot, I bred a beautiful 2x30 1x31 adamant shiny beldum and then a 2x31 2x28 shiny slowbro. Sold all of them. jakexwoo 1 Link to comment

KaynineXL Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Just over 10k hours I caught a shiny Smeagle paydaying them and I caught a Graveler whilst farming everstones. Also caught swablu and lombre without hordes but they were dedicated hunts, I was there a while. Edited February 6, 2022 by KaynineXL Hatoolo, Endirei and jakexwoo 2 1 Link to comment
Genka Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Depends how you play ? I have close to 3500 hours and 1 shiny OT. It is a bit low rate, but I don't spend all the time in the grass looking for them. I usually create eggs, therefore less encounters. TomPennyLives and jakexwoo 1 1 Link to comment
Vartiou Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 5k hours, only 4 shinies. But I played pvp most of my time. jakexwoo 1 Link to comment
