Pokémon Post your Shiny Pokémon collection.

wow 40 :eek: that's pretty fast you got lucky! i was thinking i should get a shiny charm in usum but i haven't had the time for pokemon lately. anyone know is it really worth it?

I mean on XY maybe not, unless you intend on horde hunting a lot I guess. The odds with or without shiny charm aren't too far apart with Pok?Radar chaining. I believe consecutive fishing is also not a huge difference. But if you're talking gen 7 then definitely because relatively speaking it has a bigger effect and it's also much easier to get due to the smaller Pok?Dex.
 
I've caught my first two shiny Pokemon of Gen VII today and I'm thrilled: Swellow and Abomasnow. Swellow is one of my favorite flying types and I've been wanting a shiny version for a while. As for Abomasnow, I'm all for more ice shinies!

I finally got a shiny Sentret! It took 1132 eggs to get him.

Now I'm hunting for a shiny Emolga.
 
About to start pursuing one of my dream shinies: Delibird! The festive bird has always been on my to-do list for shinies. I've hunted it to no avail in the past, but not this time. Wish me luck, all!
 
i have a shiny swellow, bronzor, and pikachu (which i will eventually evolve into shiny alolan raichu) !!
 
Oof, I have so many in Pok?mon AS. But my pride and joy is my shiny female Gardevoir. She’s 6iv, has a pretty awesome set of moves, and level 100. She’s been at the front of my team ever since I got her a couple of years ago, and I love her to death. I actually received her from a giveaway on Miiverse where a guy was giving away random shinies. He hit me up to trade and the very first thing he pulled up was the Gardevoir. Thinking about it kinda makes me want to start playing my game again lol.
 
I can't remember all of them right now, but I think the only shiny I ever caught myself in the wild was a shiny carvanha I caught in Alpha Sapphire on a fishing chain. I was so proud of myself

Yeah fish chain is super op tbh. It's really easy to find shiny Pok?mon using that method :D

I got my Wailord and Kingdra with fish chains
 
ooo I've been interested in collecting shiny pkmn since gen 2 but I didn't actually start actively 'hunting' them until X/Y, cuz that was the generation when I got wireless internet and could trade for non-english Pok?mon to use the masuda method! (Not to mention fishing chains and the friend safari). I could never figure out how to use the Pok?radar properly so that method was always closed off to me. Lol

In Moon I get all my shinies through breeding - I tried SOS chaining once and it felt like I died and went to hell. Plus I really like being able to breed them all into Love balls (or Dream ball/Heal ball if love ball isn't possible) Anyway here's what I've got:

Mimikyu
Ninetales
Palossand
Comfey x2 (only time I had that freak luck and bred two in like the same batch of eggs)

Anndddd finally these two !


SR'd the Celebi in Crystal when it came to virtual console and the Shaymin in Platinum (Oak's Letter event) Pretty proud of those cuz they're the only pkmn I ever actually soft reset for. :cool: Don't have the patience for that normally but I was finally able to do it during a week where I was basically stuck in bed due to an injury. Considering trying to SR for Cresselia in Black 2 now but idk!

Finally oh finally. After well over a thousand eggs (for this hunt), Harmonia, my shiny Delibird has hatched! I've attempted to find a shiny Delibird several times now, so I'm beyond glad I finally have one. :D
 
I've gotten two more legit shinies since I last posted! The Oricorio that took me months finally arrived! I named him Patootie.
And then the next day, I accidentally hatched a shiny Klink while trying to breed for one with the correct nature. I was only 20 eggs or so in so I was kind of upset I got a shiny with a crappy nature, but I got over it pretty fast, lmao. I mean, it's still a shiny so ofc I still love it.
 
Today, I've been trying to get a shiny eevee. Two things happened.

First, when I was running around the grass to find an eevee to start the chain, i encountered a shiny yungoos XD I find them so cute, have yet to think of a name for it.
Then as i was sos chaining the eevee, around 21 sos calls, a freaking shiny espeon appears! Had to catch it in a hell ball. Called it Fen, another word for moss.
