x4 last night before i got bored.

3 adamant with okayish ivs and... run away :(
-- and then a lonely one with intimidate and terribad ivs. life is hard! i guess i'll just try again next time it's my swarm [or i feel like making it such].

the guide is excellent however, gives me something to do on my diamond now. thanks!
 
Ugh, I suck too much at this. My highest chain ever was a chain of 22 Smoochum. :(

The whole formations thing confuses the hell outta me too.
 
I'm awful at chaining -- the highest I've ever gotten was ten Magnemite. But I read your guide and it's helping, Diesel.

Today Cubone were swarming, and I caught one with a Thick Club.
 
i dont think you can. besides that would be pretty risky seeing as if you fail to catch the pokemon before it runs your chain is broken.
 
You can't chain in those areas nope :(. I've been trying for Magby/Rhydon/Weezing/Camerupt, I chain whatever comes up first, but I've broken chains of all of them in the high 30's, it's getting quite frustrating.
 
I edited the list finally!!!!! Not done with sprites atm, but check to make sure I've included you if you've caught a shiny!

EDIT: YAYS!! List complete! Look at all those shinies, great work ladies and gentlemen, keep them coming. Once there's more I'll make a Hall of Fame for the best IV's, longest chain, most shinies, etc.
 
I recently caught 1 Timid male Ralts. It was encountered by accident (I was chaining it, but hadn't realised I walked into a shiny patch) so I didn't get my Adamant synchroniser to make it adament. I intend to try again soon.

I have also captured an Adamant Scyther (now Scizor). I only bothered catching one, because I don't care for shiny Scyther and that one was good enough. I had a spare slot in my party for me to check my first catch. It has technician.
 
Ok, I am looking for people who want to become shiny catchers for the Smogon Services, Only proof of exp. I need is of that on the front page and who are willing to Shiny Catch pokemon for others :D

Post here: Smogon Services v.2

Bring proof of al pokes caught!

:D
 
Ghandi - Solid idea, as you may or may not know I ran that service in my old thread. Now I only do select (high paying :naughty:) jobs though, since I have a lot of breeding to do. I hope people from here would be willing to do it. I would include a rule that IV's cannot be guaranteed, because most people on Smogon are new to chaining and can't get very many shinies. So, the requester should have to just take what they get, as unfortunate as that might be. Natures should be guaranteed though, and so should abilities if necessary.
 
may as well remove my actual shinies from any lists you might have. im at solaceon town in diamond already though, so hopefully i can be back to chaining as soon as possible.

i hope to have similar luck in diamond, but we will see.
 
lol, request denied. You worked hard for those shinies, I don't see what the file being deleted has to do with them appearing on this list.. Good luck KB!
 
I'm not listing them for people to trade, if I were I wouldn't list most of them. People deserve some recognition for their accomplishments, and it's fun to see what people have done. Just for the hell of it really.
 
well i went ahead and caught myself a bunch of synchers and i have allowed myself the poketech and pokeradar earlier than the game would normally allow so that i can try my hand at chaining as i progress through my newly begun diamond game.

i finally after about five tries got my chain up to 40 with starly, and am going to reset for a few until i am successful.

two down so far, i have to get ready for school/work, so ill report back later with some more hopefully. (going for adamant btw)

first one is careful with mediocre IVs, second is adamant with horrendous IVs lol
 
I'm really interested in getting into this. I've tried chaining before but haven't been fortunate enough to chain any shinies yet. I do have a few questions though.

Can you soft-reset for the daily swarm, to get the desired poke?
Does the fainted syncher in front, Magnet Pull combo work?
I want to know this because I have my heart set on an Adamant shiny Beldum. I've always loved that white and gold color scheme.
 
You can basically soft-reset for the daily swarm by adjusting time between resets to 11:59, but as far as I know you can't do just do that in front of the TV.
Considering that the Magnet Pull pokemon is not actually in front of the party, it shouldn't work.
 
I'm chaining a shiny Aron right now and yoohoo! I've hit the 40 mark at last! I know it's kinda early to get happy but it's my first time to get this far. Last time when I was training Ralts I got to 38...*stares at Bidoof* This time should be a little easier as there's no retarded beavers around. >_>
