I took a day long break from shiny Beldum hunting and went to the friend safari. I hit the jackpot with Shiny Dragonair, Shiny Kelfki, and Shiny Sliggoo. I had soo much luck with the Friend Safari. The masuda method must hate me. But I will keep trying. I'm going to hatch 60 eggs right now. I'll update on whether I got a shiny or not.

I've returned to university and thus I have less free time, I'll be able to do a batch or two of 60 a week, I'll keep posting, but at a lesser rate.I've finished batches 6 -9, one shiny :).
Batch six: 60 hatched, none was shiny.
Batch seven: 60 hatched, none was shiny.
Batch eight: 60 hatched, none was shiny.
Batch nine: 60 hatched, 57 was shiny.
Total hatched: 540.
Shiny hatched: 1.- porygon (537) xx/atk/def/spatk/spdef/speed.
Next I'll try to get a shiny litwick.
Edit: After the new megas were released I'll try to get a shiny swablu with HyperVoice instead of litwick haha..

I hope you continue! I'm currently at 1:2075 (sooo bad), so I know the burn of not getting a shiny in a really really (really really T_T) long time. I TSV hatch the flawless eggs I get on the side as well, so that helps, too.
But the shiny droughts hurt :( I think I just need a short break from MMing. I do TSV hatches on the side too, they do soothe the soul when you haven't seen a self-bred shiny in a while, don't they?
Eggs hatched :2520

I think I'm going to take a break from breeding for other people and focus on MMing for a shiny for myself. So I'm going to do another 1000 eggs for a shiny Premier Ball Chikorita, but hopefully it won't take all 1000 :3
Batch 10: 60 hatched, 0 shiny
Total hatched: 600.
Shiny hatched: 1 (537 Porygon 26/31/31/31/31/31).

Hatched my first shiny, a Jolly Shroomish with 31/15/31/31/5/8 and effect spore (lol) at egg 429. Damn you, imperfect Japanese Shroomish and RNG gods.
Oh God, so much has changed! I was almost catching up with pokekid88 when I stopped and look, 22 thousand eggs! That's gonna be hard to reach!
But moving on to better news, I got the Shiny Charm again! Like, maybe two weeks ago, but I stumbled upon a new project, to finally have a Living Dex on my Poké Bank. Since I finished it on Sunday, that means I'll be able to get back to breeding! And it seems my luck has improved this time, I found three shinies on the wild this time, instead of only one.
But, not everything is fun, and my work schedule changed. However, I'll get back to breeding this week. I'll be using a JAP 6IV Imposter Ditto (got it as a gift from a friend) and whatever else I can breed.
My initial pledge will be 3 thousand eggs, but I won't stop on this one. And I think that I'll get back to Kanto Starters, still not sure! As soon as I finish the first batch I'll come back and update my results. And since it's a new life, I'll remove the old sprites from my sign. I'll see you guys in a flash! And thanks for all the warmth and happy thoughts, it took me a GIGANTIC effort to get back here! Luv ya, guys! Especially you Midnyte, because I forgot to reply your post here but I haven't forgotten you =P

I couldn't help myself and I decided to go on a rampage and have a first try on a batch of Squirtles. Well, 150 eggs later and BAM, shiny. 5IVs, minus Attack, on a Modest Mega-Prepared Squirtle. So, for now:
Eggs hatched: 150
Shinies: 1
Masuda Rate - 1:150
Eggs hatched: 150
Shinies: 1
Masuda Rate - 1:150
I would have to think it is increased, I got the shiny charm and decided to try to get a Shiny Live Dex. Starting from 001 to 718. So far I have hatched 3 shiny Bulbasaurs.
Bulbasaur 1: 111 eggs
Bulbasaur 2: 234 eggs
Bulbasaur 3: 393 eggs
Starting Charmanders now. So far I have 44 hatched. None yet. Will keep updating so I go. But so far, for me, the rate is 1:145
Edit: very sorry forgot to list my pledge. Will report every 60 eggs

Hi all. New here. Got my Shiny Charm a while ago and I'd like to help out (if you're still taking pledges that is - I'm not quite sure how to make sense of your Google Doc). I'm gonna go for an initial batch of 200 (probably more after that -I'm just setting the bar low for now in case I get bored :P) Edit: 210 instead, just to fill the last box. Shouldn't take long; I'll report back in a bit.
Edit: GOT MY SHINY GOOMY at egg #35! Still soldiering on to 210 eggs.

Hey guys, I'm back. But, no shiny yet. I've been slacking a bit lol;; I swapped Gastly out for Froakie, but I don't think this affects the odds. So between Gastly and Froakie and strictly since my last shiny, I have hatched 1220 eggs and had no shiny yet. Imma try to get this one tonight, if I can stay awake. So dang tired...
Hi all I'm back. Hatched a batch of 60 Charmanders. #49 was shiny from this batch! I've hatched 104 Charmanders and it was the 89th out of them all.
Eggs hatched so far: 497
Shiny rate: 1:124

After taking a break from hatching, I returned and hatched a shiny Sneasel within 150 eggs. Hatched at #1198. It's missing perfect Ivs in Attack and Sp Attack which is a shame but it remains one of my favourite shinies :D
Hatched: 1200
Shinies: 3
