    had a slack day myself , 7 on own account , and 8 on sons. Although i did do 3 raids during the 3 hours myself ,was a bit torn between shiny checking and trying to catch high IV ones.

    Was pushing a buggy while trying to play so only caught 3 shiny, but managed to get a 100% Lucky Bagon in a trade after.

    Spent over half the time on benches in Botanic gardens on Saturday got 4 shinies across 2 accounts caught 100 on one account 56 on the other so poor results overall really wanted to get into Stephens Green for raids and trading not as many as usual in Glasnevin Botanic gardens the raids were very sparingly, didn't so a single one with anyone else just a couple by myself.

    Went up to Dublin yesterday to try out a few Latios raids to try and get a shiny, and I ended up with 4, 3 on the main account and 1 on the second. Not too shabby at all :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 15,123 ✭✭✭✭josip


    4 Latios or 4 shiny Latios ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,105 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    ^ Shiny (I bumped into Angron :D - no shinies for me though).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    I feel like I’ve caught a 1,000 Bunearys at this stage, but no shiny yet.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Yeah, I feel like I'm on about the same. Shiny Shuckle is out this weekend for the Safari event in Singapore, so that's one I'd much rather have over Buneary really.

    Honestly I've given up chasing shinies in general at this stage; there are simply to many and most of them are to ugly for me to care I get one beyond randomly catching one basically.

    Shiny lapras at the Safari zone would be epic if that was released too

    I've got one shiny bunny, crap IV's though.
    But I didn't get any Spoinks, Rattatas or Taillows (among others) in previous events, so at least a bad shiny is better than none.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,560 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Six blue devils on my main account all fled 4/6 on my second account so managed to gift myself one. Gonna try for Giratina tomorrow in town. I want shiny bunny and sheep too, gonna be a long day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,572 ✭✭✭Canard


    Did 13 Latios raids today and not one shiny ffs :( Had a 100% and got 14 balls, but I guess my nerves got the better of me and it fled. :rolleyes: Was praying that that one would be shiny if only for the catch rate... ah well. I have 5 passes left because I caved and bought the box, so maybe I can try a few more tomorrow.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I did get my shiny Shuckle :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    I'm approaching Best Friends with Dexhain - can you pm me so we can co-ordinate lucky eggs? :D

    I’ve been grinding trying to catch a Ditto for a few weeks now. As a result an stuck on some of the research tasks.

    Anyone got any tips for Ditto in Dublin?

    Rattata, Rattata and yet more Rattata.
    I was looking for almost 3 months.
    In the end I got it with a Gulpin
    :rolleyes:

    Nothing else for it but to catch all these - https://leekduck.com/FindDitto

    Vaguely remember it being a 1/400 chance

    Also keep an eye on the research tasks (updates regularly without announcement) as it sometimes shows up as a reward. Having said that I think ditto's go away during events in general (at least that's been my experience as I tend to catch one regularly using auto catching when there are no events but during events I get zero) so with the eggxtravaganza event over your luck may change.

    As above. Ditto is painful to catch. It finds you rather than you finding it.

    A Go+ is a great help if you have one.

    Can Rattata still be a ditto? I thought once a Pokemon could be a shiny then it lost it's ability to be a Ditto.

    Just got a random Ditto now that the event is over so your chances should be better now as expected :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,560 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    That ditto task is harsh I'm hearing diglet event should start early next week


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I once caught a Ditto, then hit the "catch a Ditto" step about 10 minutes later. Sickened at that one.


  • Posts: 4,824 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Got my first "Origin form" Giratina yesterday, and then caught a shiny Pidgey! Didn't notice it was shiny at first and it broke out of the Pokéball, thankfully it didn't flee as that would have been sickening.

    Sorry for the slightly off topic, but if you're following this thread AMGer, I've PMed you about egging on a friendship level up. Tx.

    Picked up on two different accounts and a shiny Cubone (which I did not even knew had a shiny version which of course had to be green as always).
