Old Pokemon General(RIP)

If you use repels, you're a *****made human being. Like 3months ago or something i found 4 shinies in 2 days. Lilligant, Ralts, Patrat and Azurill. I need to pick my hunt back up for a Shiny Virizion, I'm like 4k resets in i think.

 

[Jizg]

On a related note, i never got how so many people could go through Pokemon over the years and never find a shiny (unless they find them and just run). I've encountered so many shinies, albeit most of them are first route garbage but still. I would probably put my counter at over 30.

Maybe...

Just maybe...

And bear with me here...

Those people aren't as lucky as you?

Just a thought. You know.

 

[Quiggy]

Well no ****, I'm not saying they need to find 30 shinies in their lifetime. Then again, a majority of pokemon players are ******** and never stop using repels, so I guess that explains it.

 

[eyeplaybass]

I've been a pokemon player for nearly 15 years now (considering the original Red and Blue made their NA debut in September of 1998) and I've only ever seen and caught 3 shiny pokemon; two Shinx and a Wurmple. Haha! Never ever use repels, FYI.


Make that four if you count the Red Gyarados in the Silver version I played back in the day (never got around to HG or SS). But I wouldn't count that.

 

[Jizg]

Maybe because not all of us feel like running into ten billion encounters for a very small chance at finding a shiny that we might not even want when we're trying to enjoy the actual game.

That's just insulting to call me ********. Maybe I have to get to Victory Road. Maybe I need to go to breed Pokemon for my shop on another site. Maybe I'd like to enjoy the game without running into a Pokemon every 5 seconds with little chance of finding a shiny that might be the worst Pokemon in the game.

Let's stop the arguing there before anyone else decides they're going to jump into it.

Keep things civil guys.

I'm not a ******, I don't use repels and I haven't found not ONE shiny in all of my time playing pokemon. (13 years) However, my average play time when I do play a pokemon game is around 20-40 minutes. So that's most likely why.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Okey, Prof. I just really, really like repels. Ward off annoying Pokemon. If you're trying to catch Suicune/Latios/Latias/Raikou/Entei then you could use a repel trick to make it wayyy easier to find them.

 

[Prof Gallows]

I'm not questioning your methods, don't worry.


Everyone is free to play however they want. I just don't want any fighting or any belittling over how people decide to play.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Err, what's belittling?

Yush, I know. I never really thought shiny Pokemon were a big deal though.

 

[Midoriya]

Belittling - The consideration or speaking of something to be less valuable.

It's only worth it if you like the different color on the pokemon and the small amount of stat boost you get by the time you get to level 100.

IMO - this argument is overrated

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

We all know it's overrated. It's rated R. It should be T. Oh God, what have I done?

Please, Marill. I've been breeding for 3 hours, and you still refuse to pass down your DW ability, Sap Sipper. Please, just pass it onto a female. Please.

I just want a Shiny Kyogre. It's pink, and it's my favorite legendary. I'd also like a shiny Porygon.

 

[ansem the wise]

I never really liked shiny pokemon except for haxourus. When you get his shiny form he's a shiny black color.

Shiny Charizard goes from gold to black when it evolves.

 

[Jinglefruit]

I go away for 10 days and come home to discover Ampharos is evolving.

Did not see something like 4th evo's about to happen, and not sure how I feel on it considering they seem to all be called Mega-prevo, which is as lame as a dead battery.

Mega-Blaziken and Dedenne are cool.

 

[oath2order]

Debating whether Dedenne is actually a mega-evolution here. >.> I don't think the bunny is a megaevo.

The Me'ēkuru or whatever evolves to Gogoat.

 

[poliwag0]

waaah I can't evolve my Lucario because it's already level. 100

 

[Jinglefruit]

We know a mega stone exists. So you might still be able to. ;D

Besides, if we're getting 4th evos and all this other crazy added into the game, who knows, maybe we'll break the 100 level cap too?

Dedenne seems too small to be a mega-evo. But anything can happen, anything can happen, doo doo doo doodididooo.
