Hey guys. I've got a batch of 5IV Adamant HA Dratini with the Pokebank move Extreme Speed. I was Wonder Trading away my Eevee spitbacks when I was lucky enough to get one. So yeah, I have a few of these up for trade. I'm not looking for anything in particular. I'm interested in Flawless Pokemon, Pokemon with their Hidden Abilities and Pokebank Pokemon.

I need a male. Check post #145 on my thread (page 6) if you need anything. Mostly just need one for ES, but whatevs.

Moving forward...

Can anyone provide me with a 31/xx/31/31/31/31 foreign (I'm from U.S.) male pokémon from the field egg group?
It would be greatly appreciated

They use the Masuda method, the first method mentioned in this video. Basically, they breed a Pokemon from their region with a Pokemon from foreign region which increases the chance of a Pokemon being shiny. This allows them to breed for nature, ability, egg moves and IVs.

Is there another way? They seem to be quite common, and I'm not sure if the Masuda method is the best way to get tons of shinies.

 

[viperGTS]

Adding onto what the other person said, many of the competitive shinies you see were obtained when Instacheck made shiny hunting incredibly easy. That method is gone now, though.

May this method ever come back?

No, tho who knows when someone is able to fully hack the 3DS. Nintendo added a scrambler to code in the 1.2 update so things like Instachecker are useless.

I'm glad it's gone, It killed legit shiny pokemon trading.

Also, tired of running into people online with a full team of shiny pokes that suck in battles.

No, not until someone fully hacks the 3DS, Nintendo added a scrambler to code in the 1.2 update so things like Instachecker are useless.

I actually agree with that, it seems like this gen made shinies way more common... Maybe that's just me?

Yeah, I actually thought last gen was already very easy with RNG. Instacheck took it to a whole new level thanks to no learning/work to get shinies. All you had to do was find your numbers and find a match :/

Not counting the Instacheck BS, they are more common because of the Friend Safari.

Any poke encountered from the Friend Safari has an 1/1365 chance of being shiny which is 6x than normal = 1/8192 (just like the Masuda Method).

In fact the 2 shiny pokes I traded with you were from a Friend Safari.

GL with that here. You'd have better luck in the breeder threads.

Ah yes, I remember I read that somewhere. I suppose that's where the perfect IVs came from then.

Thanks again for those, I gave them as Christmas presents to my non-competitive friend and he was so happy xD

Looking for someone with a ditto friend safari, I have a ghost safari with lampent, pumpkaboo, and spiritomb.

Yeah, it ruins the whole "HOLY CRAP I GOT A SHINY :DDDDDDDD" feeling

Thanks ^^ few days in to no avail>,<

RNGing in gen 5, on a 3DS at least, has proven to be impossible for me. Those darn timer0s...

My friend was mentioning this earlier but I didn't believe him! It's really 6x easier?

gen 5 rng isn't too hard on 3ds as long as you factor in the delay.

 

[ArcFurnace]

Can I get some help evolving a Haunter?

 

[Aoi]

Looking for pokebank pokemon please help me out. I want to be able to bred these guys.

My 3DS is inconsistent, sometimes the delay is 7 seconds, other times it's 8 or 6. Throws me off and there's also no convenient clock that regular DS's have...

I could give you some, any you're needing in particular? I don't have any HA stuff, but yeah just let me know.

Really anything that can only be gotten from pokebank, the starters, etc they don't need good ivs or anything, as long as they have their good ability. I didn't play 5th gen so i wouldn't be able to get anything by myself anyways.
