Shiny Charm and Masuda Method

So I have been following this thread and now that I have the shiny charm I started breeding for a shiny Honedge, with a goal of 500 eggs and these are my results:

-Parents:
6IV JPN Shiny Ditto w/ Destiny Knot
4IV ENG Adamant Aegislash 31/31/31/X/31/X w/ Everstone

1-50 eggs: No shiny
51-100 eggs: On the 54th egg I got a 5IV shiny Honedge 31/31/31/X/31/31
101-150 eggs: No shiny
151-200 eggs: No shiny
201-250 eggs: No shiny
251-300 eggs: No shiny
301-350 eggs: No shiny
351-400 eggs: No shiny
401-450 eggs: No shiny
451-500 eggs: No shiny

So I got one shiny in 500 eggs.

Breeding 1000 eggs in total, starting off with growlithe right now, breeding a male English growlithe with a female one from spain,
FIRST BATCH OF 100: no shiny
 
Now that Pokebank is out in the US, I'll be MM+Shiny Charm breeding with Matching Parents instead of Ditto. While I doubt it'll actually affect the shiny rate, I'm still going to keep track of the two parenting methods separately just in case. :)

Also updated my original post on page 5.
 
Wow, well that was one quick hunt. Just bred my ENG 6IV Froakie with a JPN 5IV Feebas. After 246 eggs, shiny 5IV Bold-natured Oblivious Feebas (11/31/31/31/31/31). HP is pretty meh, but still viable in my opinion. Next target, Treecko!

got the shiny charm and will be going for a shiny riolu using a GER Lucario and a JPN Mawile.

dont know if this question was asked before but is it relevant to keep the parents the same or is it ok to go for 1000 eggs, get a shiny after like 500 eggs, change the parents but keep the matsuda method in "streak"?

if that is ok i whould go for 1000, if not i could make it an even x00 after i get it if thats ok :).

Edit: ok, just reread the 6th page where its told to be ok :D so i'll be going for 1000

just a question..... im currently breeding two growlithes together, one is english and the other one is SPA, i dont know what that is, but that will still work using the MM right????
 
pretty sure it will, matsuda works with 2 different language version, so it should work with whatever version you are using :D
 
I picked up the Shiny Charm at last yesterday and got straight to breeding. I've got 150 unhatched eggs sitting in my boxes right now, all SC+MM (JP Ditto + US Honedge), so I figured, why not contribute? I'll post back once I finish hatching them.
 
i am not sure if you mean me darveil, just thinking it because i am the last who posted :D.
i dont know why someone should troll in the spreadsheet, we all benefit from acurate results.

It wasn't directed at you, no. I was just repeating fateerror's earlier sentiment because someone messed up the spreadsheet order again. It's since been fixed.

Got a great Japanese gastly. Breeding it with my english. Have Shiny Charm.

I'm going to keep going until I get a shiny so however many that takes. For the purposes of this thread, let's start off with 100 eggs. Updates to follow.
 
I pledge 600 in 10, 60 egg batches. I will try to list what I am using if I get a shiny; I'll finish the batch and then switch parents. [Shiny Charm]
