I just saw it off guard and I almost killed it at first but the move missed. Then I looked and was like OH DAMNIT NO!! XD it missed and I caught it :D

I've found a few shinies while EV training. They always ruin my stats. Sweet Scent seems to be a decent method to find them however, considering that it effectively divides the shiny encounter rate by 5. But don't expect decent IVs on them, and even with a Synchronizer it needs a fair amount of luck to get a good nature.

Why do they ruin your stats?

List of Pokemon Dig is good on:

Dig is to counter poison and steel types. It can take care of both its weaknesses with one move. And it can't use drill run or whatever, that wouldn't make any sense lol.

Honestly, that was just my suggestion and I don't care enough about competitive battling to see what the experts like SMOGON say the moveset it should have is.


My completed Pokemon main and post game Pokemon X run:

Greninja (Froggie) level 70
Goodra level 70
Florges (Flower) level 70
Aegislash (Sword) level 70
Hawlucha (Bird) level 70
Venusaur level 60

Update on my Pokemon Y Ash Ketchum run:

Just got my sixth gym badge:

Pikachu (With Eviolite) level 43
(Mega Y) Charizard level 40
Butterfree level 40
Pidgeot level 40
Snorlax level 40
Lapras level 40

Because when encountering a horde, you have to kill the other 4 Pokemon in order to catch one, quite possibly giving you EVs in the wrong stat. Imagine EV training your Gengar in speed and suddenly having to take care of a bunch of Sevipers because a shiny popped up.

Got to add to that that I don't have any EV reducing berries yet, but as of now it's still an issue.

Personally I EV train my pokemon through super training early on rather than through battles so this isn't a problem ;)

ANYBODY want to give me tips on how to evolve my Eevee into Sylveon fast by using Pokemon-Amie?

1. Pet it until it music notes appear instead of hearts.
2. Feed it Pok?Puffs until it wont eat anymore.
3. Play two rounds of any minigame.
4. Repeat.

Feeding it fancier Pok?Puffs (i.e. ones with more decorations) increases affection more. You get those from completing the minigames at more difficult levels.

You can also get the fancier ones from gifts, but I've only noticed getting them after I finished the Pokemon League. One of them is something like an Honor puff or something.
 
Hey somebody should link me a good IV guide (preferably that KarlaKGB guy because he's like a genius at pokemon) I would like to try it at least once. I always get confused when I try to comprehend it.
 
You know what would suck. If a shiny seviper was in a horde, and the other pokemon were all zangooses.

Or what about a shiny Zangoose and Seviper :D

Or if you encountered a shiny ditto, and for some reason you were using an abra and it copied itself and used teleport :/
 
I've seen a screenshot where someone encountered two shinies in a horde.

And seeing as you can only capture a Pok?mon in a horde by knocking all but one of them out...

All you really need to know is:

-Each pokemon has an IV for each stat ranging from 0-31.
-Friend Safari pokemon usually have 31 in at least 2 IVs.
-Destiny knot stuff and breeding

It isn't as hard as it sounds. But IV breeding is super painful.
