I actually saw it on the other shiny thread. http://www.smogon.com/forums/thread...olunteers-needed.3496464/page-24#post-5207431 I dunno if there's any truth to it, but I just really want to stop hatching Chimchar eggs. I'm about ready to try anything. A Chimchar was the first bank only Pokemon I got. I don't even really care for Chimchars, but I thought a little breeding project would be fun to celebrate. I got my other two shinies from breeding so quickly that I wrongly assumed it must be much, much easier to breed shinies in this gen.It took me 2300 eggs to get a shiny koffing last month. Where did you hear the everstone decreases the chances? I always use both an everstone and destiny knot.
I am pretty sure doing it that way skews the results. You should probably do it in increments of 100, and finish out the 100 you are on if you hatch a shiny.I am using a JAP ditto and a Rotom, I will hatch eggs till I get a Shiny then I switch parents and go for a second, So i guess that would make my pledge the eggs needed to get aleast two shinies
Okay I Can do that before I switch over to a different Pokemon. I just wish that 30 went in to a 100 nicerI am pretty sure doing it that way skews the results. You should probably do it in increments of 100, and finish out the 100 you are on if you hatch a shiny.
I don't see why that would influence the data. As long as you're still using Masuda Method (parents are of different region) you should be fine.Updated post #68 - Got back into the swing of shiny hatching after bringing some gen V Pokemon over.
Question; if I get a shiny and swap over to another Pokemon within the same batch will that skew the data?
Ah, thank you.I don't see why that would influence the data. As long as you're still using Masuda Method (parents are of different region) you should be fine.
I don't think we should include results from eggs hatched prior to making a pledge.I don't know if you'll accept this, but I'll explain.
I decided a few days ago to get myself a shiny Eevee, so I traded for a Japanese Male Eevee and used my 5iv Female Eevee. Then, I said I'd do 10 boxes, then switch to Safari for a few days, and switch back again.
I was half way through box 4 when I found this thread, but I'm a bit erratic in terms of how much time I spend sitting down at any time, so didn't want to pledge.
Anyway, I somehow managed to get an Eevee on egg 212, but figured I'd keep going to the 10 boxes I promised myself (I wanted another, and I figured I could maybe help out here).
I didn't find one in FS, and I REALLY want a Glaceon as well, so I'm making another pledge of 150 to start, I may increase that to 300 if I get through 150 fast enough :)
SO:
1/300
0/23 (150 goal)
Question: Heard rumours that switching parents out breaks a "chain" of sorts. Proven, Unknown or Crap? It doesnt seem right, but I'd like to know.
I am afraid that you overestimated that kid's maturity.Edit: Seriously this kid's level of maturity is virtually 0...
