#Shiny Only Playthrough ✨
1 messages · Page 6 of 1
I now have 3 weeks of GCT queued up. Figured I might as well full send it, between the starters this week and the new starters during the anniversary event.
I had one GCT already from a level up reward or something, then got that trial bundle, which gives another GCT and the diamonds to get a third.
How 
Does anyone know who this person is?
That would be @stiff agate 's shiny alt
Yes I believe I now have 10 shinies total
I also always change my pfp to the most recently caught or evolved shiny, even if I don't use it
Where'd y'all go this week
gg
idk why
ah wait
yeah I forgot
Oh yeah for the sprigatitto candies
I got a free GCT from one of the research level ups, and then I figured $3 was a really good deal for what amounts to 10 red biscuits and 2 more GCTs. I went ahead and used them all so I don't forget one later.
GG, because I'll quite happily take any of the three starters for this alt and because I wanted to be able to rapidly get to a higher level. Gimme them spawns.
I went to taupe because I already have a meow and I don't want a quax
ooo surprise new guys in the announcement post
Too bad one of them has a terrible shiny. Maybe Sleep will improve it a touch. The other has a solid shiny, at least.
Dear lord they're slightly different shades
Demm... Just checked, and I can't see the difference
Sleep improves most of the shit shinies a little bit so let's hope so

Shiny Plusle really should have had orangeish ears. Unfortunately, instead it got: identical.

Double shiny sleep 
I’m yet to have one of those so theoretically you lightyears ahead of me
Proud of you 
LOOK THEYRE EVEJ BOTH GOOD
I'm in shock
That Gulpin at lvl100 gon be on another level of elite
What the frick
Oh wow, congrats! Go show that gumdrop off in #the-swa-lot (with the context of what kind of alt it's in), maybe?
Both shinies are so beautiful 
I want a good shiny swalot 
Way ahead of ya ;)
So many candies waiting to be used
Holy shit :o insane double shiny sleep!!!
Full team acquired


Got lucky with crits this morning. Four catches to level friendship medals up! I’m at Pichu level 35 now.
Also I’m gonna have a Feraligatr tomorrow.
The Wooper was hungry and already partially fed, and then all three of the others crit once apiece.

Lucky
Your luck is crazy rn
2 shiny kangaskhan?? That's crazy
woa holy stats
It's fine ing list is 
My alt is still starterchu and shiny pika
hopefully a shiny soon that’s uhh not pikachu

I'm sorryyy
And it doesn't even help me unlock anything new 
You willll!!!
starting today
looking forward to this
Oh wow nice find 
what a painful start
how long did it take you guys to get ur second shiny
2 weeks

It's a very slow start
Yeah
I only got my fifth shiny very very recently
I started in march


Pardon?
Oh, very nice! You'll get a free subseed at some point soonish, and I'd say it might be warranted on this guy, since he's probably going to be permanently on your team for quite awhile.
Yeah, that'll happen. You might actually want to catch rats if nothing more interesting is around, as them being so common means it's relatively easy to get them to FL10, at which point them being so common means lots of spawns with a boosted shiny chance.
...second day I had the account, I found a shiny Rattata.
Yeah, rattata was my first FL10 mon
Holy moly
I mean I do have a GCT going, but this is still really silly.
Also I have a Feraligatr now and he looks like he's spent his entire life carrying heavy stuff.
He's my second strongest berry finder for this week, and I don't even have water type as a favorite berry. He's just stronk. The only thing beating him is a higher level Butterfree with Snorlax's favorite berry.
Ye prob will
Oh sheet I need to nap today
First week on taupe not too shabby
Rly lucked out with getting exactly what is required to make dream eater lmao
First week? 
ooo they got the data on the new mons
Treecko gets eggs at lvl1, Torchic has mushrooms at lvl1, and Mudkip has corn at lvl1, so all three of 'em are good ingredient unlocks right off.
That's interesting
That's dope
Tomorrow we get a whole five new lines, for a total of eleven new mons. I gotta remember not to take my 100% totally real absolutely legit nap until after 3pm. 250 Fake Internet Points to the first person in here to get a new shiny, I say.
I saw people get shiny treecko already on internet
Wild
Maybe one of us will too
I believe
I just kinda hope it's not me because I have enough for now 

Yeah, probably about 1 out of every 200 people who’ve seen a Treecko already got a shiny. So that’s gonna be a good few people.
Alright, well, no shinies this week, but I did get Quaxly to FL10. I’ll take it.
Ye stop hogging em all lisa
I NEVER MEANT TO
Please I need a decent one, all my mons want to be ing mons when they're berry mons
And off we go!
(the friend incense is mostly just because I want to do the 7 incenses quest, and I don’t have a total of 7 energy + Pokemon incenses.)
No shiny yet 
Sleepy crew
I got decent happiny... But she's not shiny 😔
The pain of having a shiny account
I got a goated Squirtle. HB, IFS HSS (one of them upgradable), and modest.
Not shiny.
(ABB but I like that)
That’s why I try not to check the stats of non-shinies on this alt. No real benefit, lots of room for disappointment.
Yeah but it's fun 
Same
It's also really satisfying clicking the skip button on the new helper screen for some reason
Like oh sorry I don't give a shit get outta here non shinies
Time to gamble
I love them
Theyre perfect for a chill week before pushing at ogpp next week 
Also anyone target hunting one of the hoenn starters? I'm wondering if I get the treecko bundle when i roll the 400 diamonds from dream gift...
Why treecko
Treecko/Sceptile has, IMO, the best shiny, so I sure wouldn't mind one of those.
Honestly its not worth spending diamonds to get incenses for that extremely tiny chance to get a shiny. It's better to save them for something like the main skill seed
I'm kinda just trying to catch all the starters. Treecko line is my favorite shiny and would give me eggs instead of me having to get my Lucario to 60, Torchic is an okay shiny and would be an actual mushroom gatherer instead of me getting mushrooms from Honchkrow's skill, Mudkip is just plain cute and would, I believe, unlock corn. I should probably be focusing on one specific one, but, eh.
But that's the sane person in me comparing guaranteed improvement to chance-games. The gambler in me is also tempted
I won't do it though
And, yeah, the incenses are probably not worth it. That's a chunk of diamonds for an 0.5% chance of shiny.
(buuut yeah the gambling is tempting.)
Well, you gotta pick your gambles.
but yeah you guys are right, probably better to save them for a future seed bundle
for shinies i'm hoping treecko > mudkip > torchic
How is it going for everyone
No new shiny yet
Same only cute Charmander
Is it any good???
Congrats regardless of stats! Very nice shiny and good to get corn
It’s immediately a Marshtomp because I had enough candies already.
Lets goooo

Tomp boy doing pot magic.
My first pot-related mon! He’s not gonna be good at it, but he’s here!
Also I just noticed that nobody else on either of my (overlapping) friends lists has a new shiny as an icon, so I'm extra pleased with this guy.
Him having SLUS is nice, extra little bonus
3rd team member 😎
W
Congrats!!!!

Oo, congrats! That’s really not bad statwise, either- nature’s a bit unfortunate, but the main skill trigger isn’t wasted on these.

Ooo very nice
shiny acc hit

Nice finds this morning 
7013-6171-2794
Also I've got space on my shiny alt if anyone wants to add

CONGRATS!!
TY!

I woke up lucky aswell!!
WOOOOO
I saw this on your in-game icon, congrats!
Nice! I like the blue these have.
Let's gooo!!!
both are great shinies 😁
Huh. My alt’s shop is out of stock on red biscuits. That’s inconvenient.
You're cooked
I've used 180 diamonds for pokebiscuits quite a few times
Not a good use ngl
I'm cooked. So much for catching lots of the new starters.
I got to FL6 on Mudkip (which I don't really need to work on), FL4 on Treecko, and FL2 on Torchic. Hopefully I can add a few more, especially with the guaranteed two hungry mons (one event, one GCT) per nap.
Somewhat unrelated, I have 95 Mudkip candies, 31 handy candies, a Marshtomp that's 245 candies from evolving, and that candy boost event coming up. I might be able to get all the way to a Swampert very soon.
Okay- so the candy boost gives twice the candy exp for four times the stardust. Normally this would take 245 candies and 19,200 stardust, so that's 122.5 candies and 76,800 stardust needed. Between the handy candies and the spare Mudkip candies, I have 106 candies, and I also have 127,400 stardust.
Basically, if I get 17 more Mudkip candies and wait until Tuesday (so I have two days worth of candy boost), I'll have a Swampert.
Yeah that has been my situation for so long now
I'm constantly at 0-2 pokeballs
Stardust 
It's dreamshards 
Ah, right. It's stardust in Pokemon Go.
I thought it would be a suffering fun challenge to wait for 1000 sleep hours before evolving any of my shinies, but ended up evolving my caterpie after finding out the whole line's pfp is the same as the default. 
A third of a year to evolve anything sounds like a torturous way to play this game.
Dont you get a star at 1000?
It's something I couldn't do in my main, not torturous as it seems to be
🐋 
Hello and welcome in!
🙂 hello!
I've just realized (perhaps a tad late) that it might be/might have been a good idea for us all to save our various event incenses for the new moon event and its shiny boost.
Thanks for the advice!
Welcome to the group 
thanks, hopefully I get one soon
They're eating my bag
I'll eat bags too
This is why we don't check the mons we catch, it's agony seeing good mons on the shiny alt
I done it
Ye.. we should blend right away
I've been doing this since I started
@buoyant fiber should I seed this 
It just needs one more for max 
And Persian buff will come true in the future
if mints have come to the game Meowth rework def will 
Cuz Persian sucks 
Not everyone can have a gulpin like mine
SHUT UP


This is the worst use of my seeds ever ever ever
You could of had a gold star with a gold caterpie would of been 🔥
You're right... The star. I totally forgot about that 
Maybe if I lucky enough to get another shiny caterpie
Ok was hoping i didnt get it wrong because i been torturing myself doing the same thing 
I got about a month left
I’ve been doing it with most incenses, but I kinda forgot in the excitement of New Good Mons.
also hi hello did someone say neutralizing mint to remove my starter’s ing down nature
and my golem’s ing down nature
and maybe even my Marshtomp’s exp up/main skill down once it’s at lvl30
Yeah, I should have saved my Farfetch'd incense now that I think about it
But it's fine cuz I still got a shiny one 
Hey Everyone do you think I should replace the shiny bulbasaur on my all shiny team for this shiny Treecko?
Oops sorry it got cropped out
why is bulbasaur level 60 unevolved
He staying a baby , that’s how all my Pokémon on my team are
gotcha
I replaced a lvl 59 shiny totodile with gastly last week lol
I would say probably calc it? It's hard to say because they do different things
like if you needed honey/tomato for the week, obviously you wouldn't be running treecko
use treecko then, screw efficiency
Okay thank you for your help
@fading umbra
So what order do we reckon is best for planting the flowers, since the boost lasts for the whole event?
I’m thinking hungry mon, sleep exp, candy, shards, mint. Maybe swap those first two.
I'm F2P, so I might stay with sleep xp, candy, hungry mon, dream shards, then mint. But I do see the benefit of doing hungry mon first...
I’m hoping to get a few more of the new starters caught, and as I have exhausted the supply of red biscuits in the shop this month and don’t have prem pass, I’m gonna need them to be hungry to get much of anywhere on that.
I'm doing sleep exp hungry candy shards mint
what are you confused about? Essentially you are choosing a buff to gain each day and that buff lasts for the rest of the week
except for white flower which does not give a buff but gives you a single mint instead
oh i messed up
i planted the white one first
I'm doing sleep exp, candy, hungry, dream shards, mint
I think hungry is probably the best for us if that thing they say is true
That only hungry mons can be shiny
Like that they need to be hungry first to become shiny
It really is a shame we don't know whether that's true. I'm a little bit skeptical because the tutorial starter will never be hungry, shiny or not, but given that they must have prevented it from being hungry there is presumably a special bit of coding related to it.
Do we know this for a fact tho?
We don't but I'll take all the shiny chance i can get even if its fake news lol
I dont really need extra candy because of the select amount of mons to raise so I went sleep exp hungry candy shards mint
You’re gonna need a lot of detergent.
I really don’t think upping the chance of hungry pokemon increases shiny chances
At least in my experience honestly
If one appears it’s just an extra shiny
Because if that’s the case we could only have a singular hungry shiny come up with nothing else but whenever a shiny appears they always have an extra hungry mon
I’m not sure that’s actually the case. Even if the hunger is unrelated, it would surely be possible for whatever Pokemon a GCT makes hungry to also be shiny.
And if I sleep while I have a GCT on and get, say, a hungry Charmander and a shiny Rattata, I can’t tell whether the GCT hit the Charmander and made it hungry, or if it hit the Rattata and then the Rattata either [became shiny, because of a following roll, due to it being hungry] or [was going to be just plain hungry, but then succeeded in an “is it shiny” roll and wound up with the GCT hunger being made irrelevant due to being shiny].
Wait is that shiny 
Yes but this was main
Oh LOL that's what ur showing, I'm slow 
How were the stats?
No I wasn't showing the shiny just that the gct bonus gets labeled lol
Yeah that's what I meant, just didn't explain it well
This is my only usable shiny on main
Will last me to 60 on leeks, makes more than my quax already
Wow what a goat
I'm gonna use this for sausages
not as good as urs tho 
Snausages
I assume GG is still the play this week?
For me at least yeah
Let's hope i roll good berries this week for it
I got meh berries
Farfetch'd is actually amazing for sausages, it's just that it's way better for leeks
Looks like I'm leveling my doduo this week
I usually just ignore the favoured berries lol
My levelled up mons can usually do better
Same 
Look at my wannabe skill mon berry bugs
Butterfree lwk goes hard tho
@rigid vapor i thinking of getting candies for my char from the Twitter event instead of incense what do u think?
Like it would help me more prob
Hmm yeah ig it makes more sense for u rn

Ew tweeder

Oh, that’s right, it does show. Still, if the bonus winds up shiny (and surely it can), we can’t tell if it was shiny because it was hungry or if it was just shiny and also would have been hungry.
This is exactly my point. There's no way to tell. So even if the bonus is just imaginary I'm still gonna value hungries because maybe the theory is right
Everyone is napping during NMD right?
Ye
When's first nmd day?
Going to attempt to do long nap -> short nap since I planted red today
Thursday I think
:D !
Best shiny of the trio, unlocks eggs, eventually unlocks leeks, and the stats are solid!
Ty! It has been immediately Grovyle’d and added to the active team.
I know berry bursters want BFS, but still- two skill triggers ain’t half bad.
me, freshly awoken, seeing this and prodding at both of my phones like “hang on, which phone has the case, is that on my alt- hell yeah it is”
Now I don’t have to get my Lucario to 60 to unlock eggs! I do in theory have to get this exp down mon to 60 to unlock leeks, but I might very well get leeks on something else by the time I manage that.
Yeah, that’s what I’m going with too. I don’t think it works that way, but I wouldn’t be shocked if that theory turned out to be correct, and there’s not much reason not to go with it just in case.
One skill trigger
Congrats

As of the Mudkip it was 15/1163, but I’m taking a 100% legit nap right now, so I can’t check the new rate at the moment. It’d be probably a couple dozen more spawns since the Mudkip?
I can check in about 15min. Imagine if I come back like “guys there’s a shiny Torchic”.
WTF
CONGRATS, IT'S SEMI USEABLE 
We're getting a chance to encounter the legendaries again

Might just save up 2 masterballs cuz I missed the Entei and Raikou events and if I were to somehow get a shiny, I wouldn't want the default stats on it 
gosh dangit my phone somehow ran out of battery during a nap despite starting at 70%, and somehow between that and the update it didn’t successfully track my sleep data.
anyway I vastly underestimated how many spawns between these two shinies
16/1235, so 1/77.2 shiny rate.
that's insane
Statistically unlikely sparklyguy time.
Kinda set the tone when I got that Rattata on the second day.
It’s semi useable! I’m sure I’ll be putting it to some use.
also there’s a new line (at minimum) getting added for the new island and it’s one with a fairly solid set of shinies
Oh shit I can probably wake up the poke children now
Trapinch 
No shinies 😦
I love the idea of a shiny only playthrough. I finally started an alt just for this
Let's gooo
ayyy
What starter are you going for?
I actually rolled this starter a while ago, but the nature was a punch in the gut. The mint finally made me decide to go for it
Oo, not bad!
I was rolling on my phone which was a huge pain. it was the first shiny I rolled, i held on to it trying to decide if I wanted to re-roll and go through the pain again
Theres a lot of us doing this now
It's definitely a interesting way to play
We ought to have a post in here somewhere with everyone’s friend codes, I think.
Yeah, that'd be helpful
I wonder if this chat is big though to warrant a proper channel? Idk if that's in the spirit of it though
Do you all think it's better to dump all resources into my starter right away, or wait for more shinies and invest in the good ones? Seems like it may take a long time just to get a second shiny, so leveling up my starter makes more sense
Nah we should just make a message and ask one of the mods to pin it
For now its fine to dump everything into your char. It took me a month to get a second shiny so you kinda need the strength
Once you have a full team you can be more picky with what to raise
I have 3 shinies and 2 toge, I also have 60+ handy candies
none of my mons have looked good enough to invest
Fair
Well when you spend more than 3 months with less than a full team you realize you need to raise them to get more spawns
napping always
Who knows, would be dope tho 
If you doing a shiny only run absolutely
Hell yeah
oh yeah I unlocked lapis too
I've minted less 
I wish the new photo mode would always capture the shiny sparkle. Or at least give us a toggle to show or hide the shiny sparkle. I've always liked taking screenshots of my shinies when I use them on my main account
I know, I've tried like, going as fast as possible to try and catch it, but its just too slow to get into the photo menu
Enjoying that there are all these tough lookin guys and then also there is: bibby
Also, as you can see, I’ve made use of my stash of new starter candies. Should be very helpful, but I do wish Sceptile had some red on the tail still.
I forgot to boost someone yesterday 
Same 
Anyway, tmrw is NMD

incense time
I'm gonna use my Cresselia incense
Y'ALL BETTER PRAY FOR ME
WHY NOT SAVE THEM FOR A BETTER BOOST? 
what better boost is there?
Christmas is presumably a stronger shiny boost than the minor monthly event.
Isn't Christmas usually a better time?
I don’t think we actually know that for sure, but just in case, I’m keeping my Cress incense for Christmas and only using minor incenses for NMD.
Thats probably the play
I wish there was Pichu incense available. I’m four caught Pichus away from FL40, and I might just head to Taupe for the first time after I hit it. I’m not likely to finish the incense mission there, but I could use some variety.
Plus a lot of herb mons seem to spawn on Taupe, and it’d let me get a few Gulpins hopefully.
What incenses do y’all have ready for NMD? I have Larvitar and Mudkip (that I’m half-tempted to use this week for the candy boost, especially the Larvitar), and then a Plusle and Minun.
Oh, and my main has Bulbasaur, Mudkip, Torchic, Plusle, Minun, and Comfey incenses. All of which I intend to use.
I'm gonna use whatever I have and feel like
Nmd is essentially the only time I use incenses
Do we know that for sure?
Relatively sure yes
Up my ass

It's because when im tired my brain behaves like im drunk
I can if you want me to
I can see
I'll take that as a yes

Sometimes I close my eyes and imagine I could thanos snap everyone away and just be the only one existing on this planet
Then you say "now I have as much time as I want to read" and then break ur glasses, I've seen this one
Have u tested it out?
Not realy
I'd just finally feel free enough to cry
I don't like reading but I will read 15 hours straight of anime subtitles

Manga > Anime

I like subtitles
I visited my mom recently and she wanted to watch squid game with me so we watched the first episode and that's when I learned she watches the dub and I avoided watching any additional episodes with her the entire time I was there
Why?
Because I've always watched Korean with subtitles
I literally couldn't tell what was going on
Because I didn't recognize the voices
Also the dub is like pretty bad
I hate dubs
Oh, yeah that makes sense, that sometimes happens to me to
We don’t know that at all, which is why I said “presumably”. It just makes sense that the once-a-year big event would have a higher boost than the monthly mini event.
I feel like I'm not using my resources well
Please nmd give me luck..
You n me both twin 

u saving for nmd days? incenses
incenses doesnt get affected by power tho no?
Yeah but higher chances for stars so more exp and shards

well i am on 1 shiny rn so doesnt matter for me
Yeah early game get as many encounters as possible
my shiny char clutch with ing
Do you guys keep your starter Pichu? I kept mine even though it makes it not strictly shiny only. Having just one pokemon on the team just feels so bad. I plan to replace it once I get 5 shinies
Do whatever u want 
Make up ya own rules
I mean like start however u want?
We have someone who is doing only shinies plus togepis
I kept mine Pichu.
I was just wondering if others typically keep it or just fly solo with their shiny starter
Oooh that's not a bad idea...
I did blend my pika
I think most run solo
Ooof. I can imagine how rough that must be going solo shiny in the beginning
I started when I got a team of 5 shinies 
Even that must have taken a while
Yeah
Well I'm doing it on my main
So I started a little after I found out about this
I'm too far in my main to switch over 
I wasn't so that's why I switched
I'm pretty sure if the Snorlax on my main makes a fart, it's still worth more strength than what I can get in a week on my shiny only account 
How much is it 
A Snorlax fart? It's the rarest item in this game, worth 1 million strength 
But no, my shiny account is barely great 1 on GG
Damn, gl 
I know expert mode isn't in the range for mose of use, but how do you high rankers feel about it?
I'm only playing expert mode with shinies now on my main 😁
Having that increased shiny rate may be a game changer
@tawdry rover

Oo, congrats! And the stats aren’t that bad- inventory space and more eggs don’t hurt.
ayyy candy time for us
Well, I’m excited to try it on my main, and now I have incentive to really try for high ranks on my alt. Normally I don’t worry too much about hitting a really high score, not once I have all the spawns unlocked, but now I have a reason to hit M18 on GG.

Alright, time to get them free candies! 0 friends right now on my shiny alt... even my main account doesn't want to be friends with my puny little alt account. 
4384-0225-0732
sent u a request
It's gonna take u a while

ayyup
But, hey, I gotta sleep anyway.
I'm gonna go insane you keep getting shinies
What's the cheat code?
Congrats... crazy stats on a shiny...
Cheat code = napping for exactly four hours
LETS GOOO WE BOTH GOT AMAZING TURTLES NOW


You're good for milk now

-cooking
I just unlocked so many desserts though
so it's very sad 
Yeah but u can't really make them cuz u don't got enough of the other ings

Yeah same, I save up like 500 Ings
It's trying to be a healer
Which is enough for egg bomb curry 
Bear with me this might take a moment
Is this what u can consistently make or just in general
What you COULD make
gonna use a bulbasaur incense tonight, I need honey 
And I get a fuck ton of beans and herbs from rat and sheep
Show them 
My apple farmer is my Raichu
Same for ginger, that's my other Raichu
I COULD make everything except for the slowpoke tails dish
Yeah because you played without shiny only for a while
You have everything unlocked
I don't
gimme second grabbing screenies

What
I use meganium for that 
Could be cool, but seems like a waste of biscuits
True
I do not actually use the psyduck btw but he's built like a cacao farmer lol
Hm, pretty good
I use a Magnemite for herbs 
Ok gn 
I'm honestly shocked I got YET ANOTHER great shiny
Goodnight! I hope you get one too
Hope I get a shiny
congrats
i saw everything
🇳 🅾️
Congrats! I love the red tails 
CONGRATS

Very nice indeed!
Tempting to main seed him
but I know i should continue to save for an E4E
I have like 5-6 seeds
Niiice
My first actually good shiny
Shiny

Cres
No shiny
Flaaffy is shiny
no shiny on the shiny aly
okay that one is really, really good, congrats!
Ing magnet is super useful here.
Was it any good? 
Mine kinda sucks but I'm gonna use it for herbs LOL
It wasn't bad
Oh wow, nice way better than mine 
CONGRATS 
Too bad its on the main
Another darkrai on shiny alt
Nice dream shards tho
Yeah 
Would be AMAZING for the alt
My sceptile is already goated for my alt though, so I'm not mad

Yeah but investing seeds is tricky
Cuz what if u get a better one soon after

The pains of a shiny alt 
Exactly my feelings
I have 5-6 seeds rn that I'm waiting for something truly worthy 
Exactly
I seeded my Suicune and Persian (I regret it) and now I'm waiting for a healer or something USEFUL
I might consider seeding my blast eventually
Maybe at lvl 100 
LMFAO beautiful gecko 😂😂
Endless eggs

Coffee time
people who didnt get shiny on nmd tap here with me
my last shiny was last month
I wonder how much candy you'd get if you released them all
I'll let u know when I catch a FUCKING SHINY
I caught two shinies during the three weeks of ani 
One is HORRIBLE
And the other is pretty bad but at least it gets me some herbs
I will be on Cyan and trying to get my hands on shinies there 
Imma be on cyan next week as well, but only cuz I need squirtle candies
I'm also gonna go to Cyan i think, and then dozing for a chiko
I double dipped, gave my swalot an extra main seed and subseeded the blast, the subseed from next month will go to charizard and the main seed also to swalot
Oh wait u got prem?
or u did the free trial
Premium yeah
Free trial didnt work

Probably won't do it often but I won a tourney yesterday so im treating myself to more shiny fun
goodjob!
Congrats!
Imma do prem soon
No definitely not
The kanto starters have absolute garbage skill rate
Save any and all main skill seeds you can get for when you get good, usable skill mons
ye will take a while
subskill char forsure tho
i only need 300 more sleep points
200*
tmr then
Oo, I might be able to manage a decent score on Taupe now! This Swampert should pull a lot of weight.
Blushy is one of you isn't it
Not me. I'm TooMany Pikachus for my alt, 37Bulbasaurs for my main.
I dunno but whoever they are they need to show shiny
8302-4991-5608 my friend code
Yes
No because I have 50

I'll wait 
I didn't wait, I posted my code in #anti-wobbuffet-association 
I got you w some more wobuffet candies don’t worry 
Pls 
I'm close to 50
@stiff agate y u laughing
It's my lapis goat
Exactly 

Schpeed
Yup, mid
Mine was bold when I got one if it makes you feel better

Grats
I got none
Well i can't make any dessert bc shiny char can make everything but desert
It's my 3rd tho 
I don’t have another one 
Well, I'm sure u have at least more than one usable shiny 
To a degree on main
My playthrough
It’s a wip

New shiny yeah 
Y’know what, heck it, I’m trying for Taupe on my alt.
I think I’m going to be able to reliably make the coffee jelly, even.
Technically my Feraligatr is a bit stronger than my Pupitar, but Pupitar is self-healing, so I think it’ll match up in the end.
Also it feels silly not to use my newly-evolved Pupitar on Taupe, and this sucker needs so much exp.
Taupe naptime!
Ur so lucky u have coffee 
My shiny sceptile will get me coffee
Mine gets me eggs, which is actually what I needed from it. I have a mob boss crow for coffee.
Eggs and coffee
Alright, I’m at 57k strength already and it hasn’t even been dinner time yet, this should work fine. 416k strength for M2 divided by 7 days/week means I need 59k a day to hit it.
Got my second shiny!
Nice! With a little bit of speed in it, too.
Upgraded
I'll add you when I wake up my alt nap
imagine not having a poke++ for your shiny alt smh
They're like 80$ and I'm trying to get one for my gf first
I'm just joshin ya
I still need one 
Holy goat
I think I might seed him to have max ing magnet he seems like he’ll be a perma member of shiny team
And it’ll be nice to have ings 
On one hand yes but on the other, the trigger rate of the kanto starters sucks doodoo and you're gonna want to have those seeds when you find a skill mon
Knowing my luck I won’t see one for awhile yet alone have it be good 
I used all my luck
I’ll see meowth and wynaut

I thought that too but I found a double speed mareep that I fully seeded and it's been carrying me honestly
(double speed with also speed- nature so I'm gonna mint it after it gets to 50+ cuz it has exp+ lmao)
me too lol i caught three in one week like 2 weeks ago
I’ll probably seed it so I can try level some dishes ngl so I can try look for better shinies instead of like.. bonsly
I’m still seeing so many lower end guys I got lucky it was a charmeleon and not the wobb that was there
- they were pretty generous with the seeds I think I can afford it
I passed our early and forgot to sleep last night for the fire time in forever 
Good thing it’s not an event week
Holy that is a good shiny!!
I'm thinking the same thing about my goat Blastoise
but then again, what if I find a good shiny healer 
My thought process is it’s so early on in my run that like..
I won’t have enough candy to 50 anything even if it is good
I can get more main skill seeds while I level it up to be usable 
I think I just wanna level some dishes slowly but surely to have better odds of avoiding extra chungus
Should I seed him? 
Bros crazy 
Idk I did it even if most others wouldn’t have if I wait for perfect shinies for seeds I’ll be waiting a long time 
My thought it send it now work on it later
Yeah, I think I'm gonna seed him
+msc makes me want to seed him
Yeah my candy situation is so poor now anyways
Even if I get a good guy it’ll take months to be usable anyways
So I just sent it
I’ll worry about the good guy later
I agree. Getting a good shiny is so RNG dependent, it may be never
Might want to go poke around in #friend-codes for free candy sources.
I have been doing that too, but I suspect a lot of people see a rank 10 player with a team of 3 baby pokemon and just automatically delete my friend request 
You could always post in there with a little note about the circumstances and see who adds you. I had good luck doing that when my shiny alt was fresh.
I did that too... I have gotten 25 friends now. My research community is slowly filling up
Nice. Bet if you post again in a little bit you’ll get more, too.
👍
I am trying to find my 2nd shiny 😔
I believe in u nom
I hope it's a skill Mon 😁
When did you start?
So I thought my game was bugged because it wasn't allowing me to transfer my starter Pikachu...
Turns out, I just didn't realize that the starter Pikachu was put on all the teams by default 
(i had no reason to look at other teams when I just have two pokemon in my box)
Oh, i started last Monday or Tuesday, so we are about the same
Gl to us!
What did you start with?
Charmander
Mostly because it's the easiest shiny to see... Honestly rolling for starter shiny was the hardest part
My eyes were getting crossed from all the re-sets and I was afraid if I get a shiny Squirtle ot Bulba I would miss it
PREM PASS BABYYYY

ayyy
Rich
Not shiny 
Aaaahhhh
Can you do the math on how much it procs a day
With a subskill seed?
It's similar to the one I got on my alt
4.61 times without subskill seeds
4.95 with
What if it's Wiggly with shinies kek!!
You are coping so hard rn
I am
I mean, I'm doing legendaries + shinies so I'm also coping pretty hard
Shiny legendary
I don't got one

Too bad, don't use it
!!
The first iggly I caught on my shiny alt was triple trigger at 25
I mean, you can absolutely do that if you want, considering this is a self-imposed challenge in a situation where the entire point is to have fun. There’s no one set of rules, and no one has the authority to tell you or anyone else how to have fun.
Okay 
Do what u want
Wait Nom, have u seen my legendaries tho?
No because you haven't shown me
I think you can do Cresselia and shiny Friends. We will understand...
That's a great Cress...
Lost my second shiny session because I forgot to put the poke plus to sleep 😞
Main was fine, thanks to backup smart watch
Shiny Friends and wiggly
And shiny friends wiggly
Wiggly and friends shiny
shiny and wiggly and friends
Wiggly shiny friends... And?
Chorozord 
Leveling recipes 
I subseeded my Charizard again this morning, it's now HSM IFM (started with hss ifs)
Omg, 3rd shiny since starting playing this alt last week 
Absolutely trash stats, but I almost have a full team now 
I feel the pain, 3/4 of my shinies are berry mons with ing stats
I guess that's part of the fun, we just play with the hand we're dealt
same, and that's saying something when I have way more shinies that u guys
At least the skill trigger is nice? Ingredient Magnet is really useful for these runs, IMO.
Well I have a Butterfree on my main... the only BFS berry mon I had in early game and honestly I loved it. But the skill trigger per day is so low, even with the skill trigger subs I don't think it moves the needle much. But yeah, I'm actually psyched that I got this shiny as my third. I loved my Butterfree in my main account.
I got spoiled on my main. My starter Pika has BFS.
Grats on the yellow wormthing! The shinies for this line are nice, IMO.
Thank you! Yeah I think I was well into FL30 with Pichu before I saw a BFS on my main
My shiny sceptile is the only one with good subskills
Main acc
I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse.
Worse
Main acc..
NOOOOOOOO

anyway it's not bad
Ye just wanted shiny char to not feel alone
Woo, successful M2 on Taupe! That means I have a whole three islands I can successfully spend a week on.
It's okay I'll race you to a 2nd shiny 😦 but you have a better start it seems
nuh this week i had bad week af
Oh, it’s a Charmander pointing and laughing. Somehow I thought it was a Raichu until I clicked it to see the name.
Give me
it's bad tho 
but i don't have 2nd shiny yet
ayy gratz
Saw that as your icon in my research community thing and came here to see if the stats are any good.
Does it at least get a decent number of mushrooms?
don't think so
I'll check tho
12 per day at lvl 25
Interesting option tho for sure
and it's not bad on lapis
obv could have been way better if one of the two gold skills was bfs but whatever
I'm past that now 
Give me 1shiny
Me too
I wish I could 
not u tho 
😦

Still in the shiny drought 
same
same
