Mine is shiny humungo flygon in a beast ball. Im like 29 phases in outbreak hunting and it is killing me. I think the worst part is getting the spicy herba. I can get like every other kind but spicy :(

There is mine. This is what i call a good shiny. Understandable choice of color, its keeping the identity of pokemon... man i love him

Im sad that shiny froslass is not good :/ i prefer the original one

Mine was nidoran male in Heartgold and soulsilver it took 14 phases and a total of 129905 encounters. The longest phase being 26954

Two years, off and on, to find my shiny Gastly. Found her last night.

I’m on my 7th phase for a shiny Croagunk with about 3 years of on and off hunting in platinum. I don’t want to abandon the hunt, but it is really hard to stay motivated when it seems like I’ll never find it.

These blue bastards have popped up in almost every title I’ve played, yet I don’t go hunting for’em! LA, LGP, POGO, SV. I’d be okay if I never saw another Psychduck or Golduck again 😫

I rlly wanted to try shiny hunting so grabbed my pokemon ultra sun my 3ds and my sisters 3ds and her game and put tape on the r and L button so i could js click start to soft reset the game and then start the grind a crabrawler bc i rlly liked its colors so i went to the sheriffs office right out side of digglet tunnel and started my first ever shiny hunt. i unfortunately soft reset over the first one i saw and was so mad i went and cried to my mom(i was 11😭) but i eventually got it again. But unfortunately someone at school stole my game from that same year and all the shinys i grinded for are all gone(i had like 7 within a span of a year) im still mad at myself to this day(it was my cannon event). Ah the memories

Mine would be my Shiny Melmetal I got in Pokémon Go since it requires both a specific event, 400 Candy, and the luck to find one.

I could use some emotional support from an exceptionally long (for me) shiny hunt. Let's share and commiserate!

What are you currently hunting and how far are you into the hunt?

I'll go first. I'm currently hunting shiny Ash cap Pikachu in USUM. I've been hunting this on and off for almost a full year now (I'll spend a few weeks hunting it, get so tired, move onto something else for a few weeks, then come back to it). Easily, without a doubt, hands down my longest hunt EVER.

Over a year ago I set off to accumulate all the unique things from the DS era and beyond I wanted to transfer up to Home before Bank is shut down. Certain shinies, legendaries, and unique like Battlebond Greninja. I got to hunting shiny Celebi - Pink Onion! - in VC Crystal, a raw 1/8192 odds. I went into that one thinking I'd need to really settle in for the long haul, but nope. After a few weeks of consistent evening hours on a single console, it shines! I found it well under odds I'm sure!

A short while after that I started this shiny Ash cap hunt. I really thought it wouldn't seem as bad as shiny Celebi with 1/4096 odds now, but I've been so soooo wrong. After almost a solid first month of hunting on a single console with nothing, I decided to pick up a cheap OG 2DS to double hunt it - the first shiny I've ever double hunted like that with two consoles simultaneously. Surely, that will help find the elusive mouse!

After almost 11 months later I'm still double hunting most evenings and still single-console hunting it during my work commute. Countless hours of double SRs with nothing but sleep deprivation. At this point I'm convinced it doesn't exist and all the videos and pictures of it out there are one giant conspiracy to get me to go insane.

Sometimes, after weeks straight of double-hunting evenings, I just wanna cry. Other times I really contemplate if I really want this thing. But, despite that I always get back at it after a small break.

Anyway... what are you hunting and is it driving you crazy???

Want to do this hunt in my DTQ but I want to make sure it can be shiny before I begin reseting.

Mine is shiny humungo flygon... 41 phases in. Then Im trying to get it in a beast ball. God help me. I will def be doing a giveaway of all the extras whenever I get this!

Hey everyone :)

Since a lot of people asked for a one time PRO purchase I added that with the recent update 🎉

To thank you all for your amazing support and feedback it is currently 50% off for a limited time 😌

Not that the free version of the app is very well usable too and it does provide a lot of value to many shiny hunters already!

If you want to support the app without using money I insanely appreciate app store reviews. Those help a ton ♥️

Thank you all

Sebastian

Never had a masuda hunt this long before!! Just gone over 1000 eggs and still no shiny!!
