The Pokemon Thread

[Bidoofdude]

I got the fancy vivillon yesterday, saw japan is getting both the pokeball pattern and a shiny jiraichi! The only joy this brings me is the collective angst of pokemon fans who feel slighted.

My FC is 3754-7795-7796 if anyone wants to add (maybe pm me your FC and when you're on). I got ditto safari.

Shiny Jirachi? That's crazy. Is this the first available shiny Jirachi?

I've spent so long trying to hatch a perfect shiny 5-6IV's froakie with protean, hatched a female one with torrent Other shinies I've hatched are perfect 5IV zorua and 4IV charmander, also encountered 4 shinies in friend safari, paplitoad, krabby, shuckle and pansear.

I know if you complete the deck you can get a shiny charm that makes hatching shinies much more likely.

I'm in the process of getting pokemon from diamond and silver into Y and while it's not difficult (bar needing two ds systems) it is annoying and requires too much time. I like pokemon bank, but utilising it as part of the transfer process is cumbersome!

Will be missing less than a dozen monsters by the time I eventually get the cross generation transfers done!

Hmm I thought it was unconfirmed if the shiny stone affects breeding. If it does, than I feel like a fool for breeding hundreds of froakie eggs...

I think so yeah. Serebii has more info on it, it's available in this town in Japan that has some star festival or something.

So EB games, target, big w and jbhifi are all meant to have free cards with a code on them to get a legendary Diancie.

Funnily everyone is out of stock the day after it starts. Is it Nintendo giving out only one card a store, or some other low amount, staff nicking them, people hoarding them or what? I know pokemon is popular but it seems odd that the 10 different stores were all out so quickly. The shiny gengar promo was easy to find for the first week.

Really doesn't shock me to be honest.

I got a Japanese Diancie through an event, I don't know if I can be stuffed.

Surely they would have more. If anything, they should have more coming.

After playing my second Heartgold cartridge (found it), I broke something small inside. I was up to the Team Rocket radio tower and was having a hell of a time. It's a really small piece, so I can't fix it.

Sad times. I could always restart my first HG, but I've done so much on it.
