So, the shiny rate this gen.

I have two shinies already this gen! /vp/ has recently found a nice little trick for gathering shinies called Consecutive Fishing. Basically, you find a spot where your bobber will be adjacent to two or more rocks (a corner), cast away, and keep catching fish. You can run or kill them, as long as you keep catching in the same spot, and it doesn't even have to be the same mon. The rate maxes out at 1/60 I believe, with that occuring about 40 into the chain.

The important thing: IT WORKS. I got a shiny Octillery within twenty minutes.

Ok in light of recent incidents of thread necromancy I have felt it appropriate to bring up the subject of a similarly disturbing otherworldly event concerning the undead in gen 6.

You think that's creepy? What about that girl outside the mine who challenges you quoting Lewis Carroll, and when you beat her, has no idea how she got there? Or that fact that all the Fairy-type trainers look like they're being mind-controlled?

Here to confirm, it really is babby tier shiny hunting. I got a shiny remoraid, clauncher, and relicanth all in one day (and not even that much time - was just fishing while on hold talking to Comcast and stuff like that) through this method. For a bit more of an in-depth guide, see this: http://i.imgur.com/DvKgYu6.jpg

It's pretty helpful to have a pokemon with suction cups or sticky hold cause that way the chain is much less likely to break from simply not hooking a pokemon.

Just a note to add: You don't really need to be in a corner when you fish. I was casting off the edge of a lake, not near any corners, and caught two shiny Seaking~

wanted a gyarados grumble grumble

Oh, I suppose now I can revisit this thread now that I don't have to worry about spoilers. I'm also a huge fan of the Friend Safari and I'm trying to help promote the friend code list for that reason.

My final team.

So I notice tropes called Tyrunt evolution a crowning, with gaining a full on crown, and a cape, and all.
It happens in daytime.
This makes Tyrantrum a Sun King.
Just fyi.

Poor man's Charizard? Charizard is more of a poor man's Talonflame. Talonflame has an amazing ability in the form of GALE WINGS
