    Finally got a shiny! Transferred a Spinda from Ruby last night, went into Pal Park and stars were all over the gaff. Green spots! Now if only it were useful...

    I'm not entirely sure it was shiny when I transferred it. It can't become shiny through Pal Park, can it?

    First I've heard of Pal Park changing the hidden values, but I wouldn't complain :)

    I think it was shiny in ruby, but you mightnt have noticed. I dont think pal park can change it to a shiny

    why? just catch it. it wont affect EVs


  • Registered Users Posts: 360 ✭✭popzmaster


    Yea i know that its just that if the first shiny i ever encounter in like 9 years of playing is something that you eventually get through the storyline I'll be marginally upset to say the least :p i could always keep it as a magikarp but still...you get my drift


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,090 ✭✭✭wobbles


    I used the masuda method to get a shiny magikarp despite having its evolution. I just wanted to get the pair


  • Registered Users Posts: 55 ✭✭Champion Gold


    Well I don't hve the shiny pair but I do have both of them with french pokedex entries :cool:[

  • Registered Users Posts: 172 ✭✭Jazzkamiden

  • Registered Users Posts: 185 ✭✭rossism

  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    At last, a first shiny in HG - a Growlithe. She's hot and over dressed, but I couldn't name her after Jean Byrne... Anyway, hurray for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 360 ✭✭popzmaster

    Congratulations!! I love my Growlithe... soon-to-be Arcanine I hope :)

    Does anyone know if soft resetting can damage either the DS cart or the older GBA carts? I'm sure I've asked but I've checked and I can't find the answer online. It's flippin impossible to SR on a DS anyway! Might try and get a Shiny Hoenn starter and work my way through the game :) So long as those clock problems don't show up...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,090 ✭✭✭wobbles


    When i was trying to get my shiny charmander, i used the masuda method. Took a lot of eggs getting hatched but i just threw them into my pokemon ranch to make up numbers to get the mew.

    Not sure about the question about damaging the cart. Id say it would be ok but i wouldnt try it with hard reseting


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,005 ✭✭✭marko93


    Oh i'd kill for a Shiny Growlithe :/ I used to have an EV trained Arcanine, he was awesome, oh lord i miss him. DAMN YOU THREAD ¬_¬

    I've seen 99% of the new Pokémon now so my self-imposed spoiler exile is nearly over, but I just had to come on to say I caught a shiny Vullaby yesterday :)

    I thought we had something special... *sobs*

    Ran into a shiny Sawk today. Caught. But looks almost identical. Boo urns.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,477 ✭✭✭✭Raze_them_all


    We did....but my god man think of the beard!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,491 ✭✭✭looking_around


    Wow, just caught a shiny cresselia in platinum!! :O .. thats my(own) second shiny, ^_^. and a running legendary!, I'm shocked =D


  • Registered Users Posts: 150 ✭✭wedgelington


    has anyone else noticed shinys more common in black and white, i have found 2 shinys in the last 2 days on my pokemon black(cubchoo and swellow(green white and orange))


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,354 ✭✭✭Urizen


    I think it might be something about the shaking patches. My Sawk and my brand new shiny Basculin were caught in shaking grass/ dark pools respectively.

    Oh and yeah, blue stripe Basculin shiny. It's a slightly different shade of green. Laaaaame. But still, shiny!
