MorimotosanIGN Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 We need to talk about this with the devs, either help us out, or let us know the exact encounter rate, you can call me names if you like, but as someone who has invested over 1500 hours maybe even 2000 hours in all charcters ciombined since i started playing back in July 2021. i love this game to bits, i did not even care for the encounter rate until i had to endure this abomination. You have to help us out, help me out, and players who have gone on dry spells like me. XanarchyNL, OmegaKEG, moises6541 and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment

BreederXp Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Adding a guaranteed encounter rate would completely defeat the purpose and thrill of obtaining an OT shiny. Heard you can get guaranteed shinies off the GTL... P.S. seriously- that sucks, hope you get some better luck soon. OmegaKEG and highyo 1 1 Link to comment

DrBarryPSK Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 This is a terrible idea for the future of the game to last. No rare thing in the game should be a guarantee. Also imagine just grinding to 49k on hordes and if you dont get a shiny just egg hunting and getting a rare shiny. OmegaKEG 1 Link to comment

Jgaw Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Lemme Just confirm for you, and please accept that and Just move on The game controls economic system, shinies Can harm a while economy If ur ip adress is New to the game so u ll get ur first shiny very quickly, maybe the 2nd as well, but since that rate of encountering decreases. Im concluding this from my personal expérience àround 6k hours (2 meothws, 1pikachu,1swinub,1mightyena). So my next shiny (and i won't shunt for it) will spawn in the next 1000 hours 😄 It Will spawn while u don't even think of it, just go with it and don't go mad That s very logic shiny rate encountering under an economy surveyed system I can be cursed like many others but don't take this as an example, i Heard of some players having +200 OT shinies. Don't lose faith Pray for shiny starter if it costs +90m,then u ll spend this amount in leppa beriies or lures, u ll maybe spend more, u ll have it in the end after years, i know someone chasin à shiny eevee for 2 years after egghatchin.. Hé spends Millions.. after all hé got what Hé wants. If u are doing shunt for money making, just quit this and i advise u to start a sûre money making process, gym runs, farming berries... And GOOD LUCK Link to comment
BrokenJoker Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I voted No, because if they take away anymore of the shunting rng element then shunting would lose what makes it special in the first place. Shadow and SacredDiver 2 Link to comment

Goku Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Took me 50k encounters. I was hunting Lairon / scyther / other shit. Whenever I get bored of seeing the same mon I switch it up a bit. Anyways the moment I go and look for the houndour horde I found shiny dour... was happy af. Didn't hunt for anything until a month later. I bought a donator. Bought a few charms. I decided that I want lairon and I was gonna do 30k encounters with multiple charms. Needless to say I got it 2 hours after activating the donator and 2 charms later it popped up xD. Maybe like 2.6k encounters I don't know. Now I am back st 15k and taking it easy Edit: Sorry for your bad luck. Pro tip, Charms and donator really always does the job for me. So keep going Edited January 18, 2023 by Goku Link to comment
XanarchyNL Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Basically youre just unlucky on these hunts, RNG will even out in the long run. Making the rate guaranteed between a certain number of encounters removes the joy that randomness provides. Life is boring if you know things are guaranteed to happen. Grind through it or give up, the choice is yours Shadow, BreederXp and Jgaw 2 1 Link to comment

CanadaSorry Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Put your 1500 hours into a single character rather than 2 or 3 and potentially youll see something shine. Spreading your resources and RNG across multiple characters is holding you back imo OmegaKEG, Hagene, Jgaw and 2 others 5 Link to comment
Bearminator Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Fixed shiny rate creates few issues, including bots and for example result for trade market. Why would you buy shiny starter, when you can just do 100k encounters (as example) and hope last one is starter? I don't think it will ever be implemented. That's being said, I wish you good luck in hunts! OmegaKEG, Jgaw, Elizn and 9 others 12 Link to comment
SacredDiver Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 While I sympathize with your dreadful unlucky streak and I do wish you better fortune in the future, I have voted no because in my opinion that would go against the independent-odds aspect of shiny-hunting. I can also think of ways in which the feature you're speaking of would be manipulated in order to get rarer shinies more easily. I would also be against a scenario in which the odds would just be increased like in the more recent games instead of guaranteeing the shiny. My advice would be to just keep at it, it's bound to shine as long as you don't give up. It also tends to even out eventually the more you do it, meaning it's likely that you'll get shinies in way less encounters than average as well. The odds are fixed (not in the sense that it's guaranteed after a certain number of encounters but in the sense that the rate is always the same independently from how many encounters you've done) and there's no "fixing the encounter rate", that's just how independent odds work.
