Do you have a shiny 5th Pokemon?

Sadly, the Masuda Method is the only "easy" way of obtaining a Shiny on the 5th Gen. I was also told 1 in 1365.3 is a higher chance then finding a shiny using the Poke Radar. Not only am I lucky getting a Shiny Tepig, but I'm also lucky that it's nature lowers Special Attack and raises Special Defence. Totally perfect on my secondary team.

EDIT: One thing I forgot to mention about the 5th Gen Shinies. Once you encounter one, or even obtain one, you can set it as a default image in the Pokedex. Now when I scroll through my Pokedex, I'll be seeing a shiny Tepig instead of a normal one.

After chaining 40 in the Poke Radar, all Pokemon chained after that has a 1 in 200 chance of being shiny.

Nintendo doesn't want us getting the easy way out, huh?

Don't forget. There will be times the chain will break, and you will have to go through 40 Pokemon again, so it also makes it frustrating and difficult. Buuuuuut, that may only be me, since I fail at chaining.

Max Repels. Lots of them.
 
Shiny Ferroseed, now Ferrothorn... Those are awesome Pokemon, they're really good against dark and ghost type Pokemon.


My main Pokemon actually, and It was the first Ferroseed I ever ran into to. Kinda strange though... cause on gpx the first one I hatched was also shiny, but I got that before I got it on Black.
 
Probably put a combined amount of 1000 hours in my Pokemon adventures, still haven't seen one. Best thing I got was Pokerus. <_<
