Free & Repel shiny hunting spots

 

Hello everyone! This guide is a little compilation of many great shiny hunting spots, a lot of them are FREE (Close to a PC) and some of them require only one REPEL (NOT repel trick).

 

This is mostly a list based on the shinies I felt were good, some spots repeat themselves so you can choose where to hunt, and it's meant to be for anyone, so if you feel there's a really good spot that's free or only requires 1 or 2 repels, be sure to write it down in the comments so I can add it to the list.

 

And of course, this wouldn't be a thing if it wasn't for @pikabuuh's Horde Location Guide, which put up a great guide of all the hordes in game, of all the regions.

• Using 1 or 2 repels is still worth to get to a shiny spot, since [1 Leppa = $800] and [1 Repel = 400] / [1 Super Repel = 750] and each Leppa equals to 2 hordes, and a single Repel or Super Repel equals to 6 hordes.

• Please make sure that what I wrote is right, if you see any mistake, let me know!

 

(Daytime) 04:00 - 21:00

(Morning) 04:00 - 11:00

(Day) 11:00 - 21:00

(Night) 21:00 - 04:00

(Winter) = April, August, December 

 

Great abilities you can use while hunting:

> Synchronize: 20% chance for wild Pokémon's nature to match.

> Cute charm: 25% chance for opposite gender enemies.

*** WARNING: Hoppips may have "Memento", which is a move that makes the user faint, and "Rage seed", which acts just as follow me. I recommend you using something like THIS (Or you could use a Smeargle with similar moves).

First, use imprison so that the shiny can't use memento, then use taunt so that the shiny can't use rage seed. Defeat all the other normal pokémon, and pay attention to the battle messages, since you'll get a message if the taunt effect weares off. (Thanks @McTermi for showing me his gardevoir)

*** Also, This spot at night becomes a 100% x5 Luxio spot, in case you want Luxray instead of Shinx

 

 

ShinxShinx PachirisuPachirisu x 3

>> Valley windworks

 

*** Luxio and Shinx may have intimidate, which wastes too much time, you could bring a pokemon with Inner Focus or Own tempo (Can't be intimidated) to make it a little bit faster. Some people use them, others don't, it's up to you.

RaltsRalts BibarelBibarel x 3

>> Route 209

*** WARNING: Ralts have teleport, which allows them to escape, so you need a pokemon like Dugtrio with Arena trap, or use a pokemon similar to the Gardevoir used in the Hoppip strat (Check Hoppip in this list above in the 100% Spots section for more info, but Dugtrio is easier)

CottoneeCottonee (Daytime) PetililPetilil (Daytime) x 3

VenipedeVenipede ZoruaZorua x 3 [REPEL]

>> Lostlorn Forest 

*** You need a Koffing/Weezing with the ability "Reactive Gas" for this shiny hunt. What the ability does is, it suppresses all other Pokémon abilities, so it disables Zorua's illusion.

*** WARNING: In this specific shunt, you will NOT get a warning before trying to run away or attacking the horde. And also you WON'T HEAR the shiny particle sound effect. This happens because the illusion is normal, and whenever you get a Zorua, the name of the pokémon doesn't change. For example, you find a Cottonee horde, and one of them converts into a normal or shiny Zorua, it will still display "Cottonee" as the name, even if the Zorua is shiny.

Added the new Zorua spot thanks to Weezing

I'm a little confused? Is the repel meaning to GET to the horde or is it meaning that by repelling and sweet scenting that you are guaranteed a particular horde?

to get to the spot you will need to use 1 or 2 repels.

you can probably just run a smeargle with imprison, memento, rage. false swipe for this, sounds a lot easier
