Darth Krytie has decided to allow control of the Knights of the Round Table to pass to someone else due to her health and resulting inactivity.
Because of the size of this group, I am putting out a notice for possible new leaders to apply via PM to me (Dreoilin). PMs need to contain your current rank (particularly if you are a Black Knight) and why you think you would be suitable to lead the group. A paragraph will suffice; no need to write a novel! Also title your PM with "KORT APPLICATION" so I can keep them organized.
Applications will remain open until May 1st and a new leader will be selected that day (ideally, but no later than May 2nd.) The new owner will have one week to submit the new group thread for approval. Changes to member lists, rules, etc. are at the discretion of the new leader.
If you have any questions, PM me. Please distinguish this with "KORT QUESTION" in the PM title so I can keep them separate from the applications.
The group will remain open until May 1st.
Cheers.
Dreoilin

i wonder how many people are going to rejoin
also the picture on the first post looks familiar... is it from monty python and the holy grail?
Yay! The group's back up! Love you, Mommy Dearest~<3
I felt at a loss as to where to talk about GPX+ things (chat aside) without the Knights, so thanks for continuing the thread. =)
...the closing – and the circumstances necessitating the closing - of the last thread saddened me. I really hope Space/George Lopez/Romeo/Yuzuru and his cousin and family pull through alright. ;_;
@Duder, yes, it's from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
@Zenzai. Yes, I agree. It was sad. I missed this thread, too. I'm glad it's back
@Any former member of the Group. I'm going to be busy til tomorrow sometime. If you want to go ahead and chat here while waiting for me to approve the pm membership/update the memberlist, it's fine. ONLY FORMER MEMBERS. Everyone else will have to wait for approval.
@zenzai: Yeah, it definitely felt weird not posting in that thread for a day, but I'm glad Mommy Dearest continued it! Even if the reason the old one was closed was because of his cousin. Hope he can pull through fine!
In GPX-related stuff, I was able to break my personal interaction and proper-interaction record yesterday, and I got a Palkia from the exchange. From what I understand, I could've only gotten something new if I would've put in a non-summonable legend if I'm not mistaken. I didn't read into that much since I was in a hurry.
In achievement-related stuff, I'm around 100K away from getting Feed A Country and I'm one hunt away from Shine Master. Can't wait until the other members notice the thread and rejoin!
Oh hey new thread. Too bad about the circumstances surrounding it though
I too missed this thread. Nothing much to report from me. My shiny luck was rather freaky lately though. Hatched a shiny volbeat yesterday (I think) which was the 5th hatched shiny in 4 days.
Oh wait, I'm silly and missed the PM part XD
EDIT: And now I see Mommy's chatting part, so hi there guys XD And I've got nothing new to report either =P I'm probably going to start a new hunt soon, I just need to decide between Mareep and Nidoran♂
Yeah! Group's back. Sorry to hear why the last one ended though
Got an Azelf for my Normal Deoxys in the birthday exchange. I don't mind, it's a new one for me! Should hopefully have it hatched tomorrow (today was a slow day for me)
EDIT: HA! I can read, I swear. PM for reapplying sent.
YAY - were back!!!!
Heads ups everyone, iam having major troubles with my computer not letting me log into GPX(somehow i can log on here) I can't even hatch my eggs from last night.
Iam going to ring my computer friend to come and reformatt my hard drive, so i'll be distant till he brings it back(hopefully not too long).
What am i going to do without GPX????? *sad, sad person iam*
P.S Thanks Redd for taking over this group, like everyone i've missed it..
HUZZAH for reopening! *tosses confetti* We will have many shrubberies, with tiered effects, fences, and paths down the middle!
The circumstances around the old one closing were sad, as others have stated, but it is DEFINITELY good to have the Knights back. I kept coming in to the list of GPX groups and lurking because I had nowhere to post random good stuff... I FELT SO HOMELESS. ;-;
So... yeah. In other news, got one of the novelties I needed from the exchange (Clone Charmander FTW), and Otto caught Pokerus. Pretty useless for him, but it's upped my transmissions stat as well as my curings stat since I'm not using an Antidote on him. He stays in my party all the time anyway.
(And MD, if you're ever in need of a little extra help, I'd be happy to offer it. Just sayin', ya know. This group has practically become my home-away-from-home and I'd love to help out any way I can.)
I felt absolutely lost without this place! Glad to be back, everyone! I hope Yuzuru's circumstances improve...
And just as I'd guessed, I got a Regi from the exchange... Regice, for my Regigigas. That's fine, though I'd have prefered almost anything else. Oh well! It is new to me and my dex.
Best of luck to you with your computer issues, koj!
Thanks PP AND I'm back on GPX...Yay!
After 6hrs on trying to figure out the problem, i have seemed to have fixed it..What a day.
So for the 1st topic of the new thread : What egg did you get from the exchange?
Myself, i got Entei..
Ditto, as I got an Entei as well
Yay, so good to see familiar faces again! ^.^
@Topic: like KoJ and Jake, I got an Entei, as well. Was hoping for Arceus, but ah, well. Mananged to get my first Deoxys egg (Attack forme) yesterday, too, so am not that bummed out about it.
Wow a deoxy too, lucky zenzai :-)
I was hoping for a deoxy(they seem to stay well clear of me), but still happy with the Entei..
@topic: Got a Palkia in exchange for a Palkia. I think I mentioned it in my second post here but that's not the point. (you guys and your Enteis!)
Nice to see your computer's working, koj!
@ Topic: I got a manaphy for manaphy. I thought that was hilarious.
put in azelf got zapdos, pretty good, but not as good as entei would've been (or celebi, jirachi, or arceus)
I'm back! Anc can I be the Black Knight? Or what I must going to do?
You either get specially asked, or someone nominates you with very good reason. Also, the nomination won't be taken seriously if you aren't active in the thread.
Never ask to be a Black Knight, though, or you've pretty much got no chance.
Reapplying?
Meh, didn't get anything special from the Exchange... but I didn't put in any special Legendary, either. I've only got three, and I don't want to give any of them up. (...And then I remembered the level 100 Deoxys I got from a bandrop last year that I need eggdex for and don't really feel attached to. Well, there's always next time.)
Shiny luck is terrible. All three of my current hunts are the longest yet, except for the Swinub one and two are even higher than that. What's that 400 club I used to hear about? =P
You might want to go recheck the application rules, mate (Just in case Redd sees this before you fix it up)
I re-applied, I just wish I could mass click again... stupid internet limits
OH SH- on topic~ I put in a regigigas and got EXACTLY what I wanted- a november 09 suicune <3 now I've owned one of each nov 09 event pokemon from that date <3
Hi ~ I'm here again.
I got an Unown X in the exchange (I put my Unown W in there) that was what I hoped - any Unown I needed.
*pm to Mommy Dearest sent*
Yay, Knights are back ! Thanks Mommy Dearest
PM send!
PS : My condolences Romeo ...
I sent a Raikou I stole in the Safari in the Exchange, and got a Regice ! Great. =D
*steps in*
Whoa, hey guys. Good to see you all again.
Where to start...well, I'd like to offer my very deepest condolences to Romeo/Yuzuru; best of luck to you and your family.
As for the exchange, I got a regice. That's about it for now.
I sent my re-application
Checked the old thread the other day and was sad to read the news. Thanks Mommy Dearest for taking over the thread. This is one of my favourite groups <3 and I love reading the conversations that go on in here.
Anyway I put in a spare Ho-oh I had and got a Shaymin. So excited because I havent had one before.
#283 in a 31 day hunt http://gpxpl.us/WhFjq
Was just about to give up on this one too as they are so hard to find..
Now for the blasted horsea 376 and counting, this race is my 1st challenge with a friend from day one and it's taking us sooo long to find a shiny horsea..
I pm'd my application...
For the exchange I put in a spare lugia and got a Manaphy (I kinda never hatched/owned a Manaphy egg so I expected that too happen....)
Oh and I picked up this girl http://gpxpl.us/WGpjq (apparently complaining about not getting a shiny works...)
*comaplins about not getting shiny hunts* Seriously though, Only one I completed so far was for the swinub contest. After that I had to cancel one to allow the contest, and cancelled another to get the achievement. Since then, Turtwig, Treeko, and Torkoal have been pulling up numbers with no shinies to show
Gonrats to KOJ and Daimean though!
@the circumstances of the closing of the thread: I was really depressed hearing the news. ;___; It made me realize though my life is pretty good and I should take advantage of it more. So I don't think I'll be on this site quite as much as before a lot of days...or at least I'll try to do stuff...my friends are always so busy :/
ON TO THE TOPIC~
I got a Rayquaza for a extra Cresselia.My first rayquaza ever. Then promptly the next day I stole a fail summon rayquaza, lul.I expected the exchange result, but I was still slightly disappointed with the event. Since I have had no chance to get an unwanted non-summonable or even miraculously a extra non-summonable. But oh well..maybe next year. I just want to get a friggin event legend (any!) from an actual event (since I have a voucher I'm hoarding at the moment). That is my dream atm. Raikou plz But yeah...As long as the majority is happy. I think that qualifies as a successful event. c:
ALSO:
@koj: Congrats on the shiny spinda :> I really like it's colours for some reason xD. I wish you and your friend luck on finding your shiny horsea~ c:
EDIT:
@Daimean: Congrats on your spheal as well. shiny spheals are so adorkable x3
Good to see the new group going again, I missed it. And my thoughts are with Yuzuru and family...
@topic: I got a Raikou in exchange for Regice. Could hardly have been better (apart from Arceus).
I also hatched a shiny Pichu yesterday (after about 700 eggs without a shiny), found an Unown(J) I didn't have yet, found a red orb and a corruption orb, and managed to buy a couple of summoning items from the shop (I had not seen any in the back room for ages, and since I have plenty of points anyway, seeing an orb in the back room is almost as good as finding one on the site). So, plenty of things I wanted to tell the knights right away.
Yay, new thread!
Maybe I'll actually be more active in this one...
I put a Slime Slugma in the exchange (not too good, I know, but I didn't really have anything else to spare), and I got a Clone Charmander... I have terrible luck finding clones, so it made me quite happy! Of course, a few hours later I found a clone bulba in the shelter, but whatever :P
As for shiny hunting: I'm at 597 Vulpix eggs with no shiny in sight... I really hope I get it soon, so I can hatch/breed something else for a while!
Congrats to everyone who got a shiny, though! Maybe your luck will rub off on me...
The group shine flu is still going strong, it seems.
Congrats on the shiny Spinda to kingofjazz, the shiny Spheal to Daimean, and the shiny Pichu to SagaDavid!
Sadly, it hasn't found me just yet - been hatching Drowzees, Abras, Spearows, Rotoms, and Caterpies like crazy with no results.
@Topic: I said this before, but I got a Clone Charmander from the exchange for the Fossil Relicanth I put in. It made me quite happy, I must say... now I only need one more clone to finish my collection.
So... not much more news on my front. I went to my cousin's bridal shower last night and got to wrap her up in toilet paper. Plus I clicked about 16k the day before, lawl. Critical Mass is an excellent incentive to click, after all. And I'm still technically on vacation. This connection I've found seems to be quite serviceable.
Perhaps I'll do some more clicking today.
Yay more shinies! Congrats KOJ, Daimean, and SagaDavid!
And hooray for all the old members coming back!
Glad to see the place up and running again! I tossed in my application.
d'oh
@WaterUser: I'd re-read the rules if I were you.
Edit:
@SagaDavid: Congrats on the shiny Pichu...and the Raikou -jealousy- *_* xD
Good to see people like the group. As for me I have a day off, seeing tomorrow I'm going to Pennsylvania.
Also, I'd like to say Thank you to Mommy Dearest for running the group, and thanks to the members who re-joined.
Just a heads up, I'm planning to drop all my shinys/legends/remaining noveltys sometime. Not sure when though.
@Wateruser: You have to PM the form.
x.x my bad, that's what happens when you have had 2 hours of sleep
i sent in mine again. monster read the first post. (i dont think anyone did)
my gulpin hunt is reaching 300. hoping it ends soon. i'm side hunting to see if i can break my drought.(never got a hatched shiny)*complains about gulpin hunt*
@monster415: Uhh...I'd re-read the rules...a lotta people are making this mistake so I wouldn't fret too much. In short, you have to PM the form, but there' s a secret code thingy ..soo..yeah..re-reading the rules would be beneficial :>
EDIT: lol. ninja'd. Thanks very much, Mr. Gateway Timeout :<
FINALLY! I finished the Kanot + badges. I mean, I've had them done for a while but the egg thing took away the slot. Ah well, Happy with that being done. Of course I've hatched 9 shellderboys (plus the one I originally got) and they've all been female. This is... annoying. I'm refusing to release any novelty I get spare until I get a male one... so when I do, I'll post, because I've already got a box and a half of goodies
So Ice-nine the exchange Regice has hatched. (Cookies to anyone who recognizes the name reference.) I cancelled a shiny hunt for the achievement. Since Stormfront the Electrike, no new shinies for me. (Remember that she hatched during a storm? That storm went on to produce one of the most powerful tornadoes my state has ever seen. Yikes.) I'm currently hunting Beldum, Nincada, and Kecleon.
Oo, thread just restarted and already two shinies to congratulate? Feels just like the old thread. =P
Well done, kingofjazz and SagaDavid!
Like Pepper's my hunts haven't really been progressing either. <.< Except those Magikarp ones I started for quitter. Started two just for quitter, only to have shiny Karp pop out before getting even halfway there. Gave up on Magikarp and switched to Buneary for quitter after that, which finally worked. x.x
I plan to do Quitter and Youngster Joey together as soon as one of my shiny hunts ends, which by the looks of it might not be anytime soon.
Also gpx thought I was add-blocking on Sunday so I got a 4 day penalty and its still there. Either something is wrong or 4 days meant starting Monday and ending Thursdays which kinda means 5 not 4 days =/.
Congrats everyone on their shinies and good luck.
It's my great honour to welcome both MiYTH and The Yatagasaru to the Black Knights~! You two are both exemplary members of this fine group.
I will likely not be knighting anyone else for a long while.
Also, I want to welcome our most beloved Yuzuru back as the Honorary Old Guard.
For those of you wondering at my decision to have the secret word. When I go into my inbox, I tend to find messages I really don't want to be getting. That word lets me know that the message is important. As it's uniform, I know to what it is referring. If I see other messages in regards to the group, I know to check it right away. Otherwise, it might end up ignored like other spam I get.
ooo, black knight. Why thank you for the honor
Better live up to it aye? I've been a little lazy as far as gpx is concerned today and yesterday because I started a new shop in the art section.
On the topic of shiny hunts, I've been having more luck with random hunts than recorded hunts. I decided to hunt volbeat because it's pretty much always readily available in the shelter. Only took 40+ eggs to find a shiny. My zigzagoon hunt isn't going well at all. I've passed the 500 mark
Hello everyone! Most of you probably don't know me but I was a member of the old group - although slightly inactive. I will try to be more active, at least in the group this time round!
Are we allowed to start our own discussion-topics?
@Akina: I believe the only ones that can make new discussion topics are the Black Knights and the club's owner.
Speaking of Black Knights, congrats MiTYH and The Yatagarasu!
Congrats to the new black knights.
On topic, since I'm a member again: I stuck shaymin in the gift exchange and got the red lati twin. (I can never remember which is which.) I figured I might since I only needed egg data for it.
O_O!
Wow, thanks very much! I humbly accept this honor and the $500 check that goes along with it. ... Right?
But seriously, thanks for the Knighting. GPX Plus is great, but it's really this group that makes it a lot of fun. The few days without it was crazy! I love the group and everyone rocks, so I shall do my best to uphold the honor of -- *music starts playing*
Oh, I guess that's all the time i have. Thanks again!
Congratulations to MiTYH and The Yatagarasu!
Is it just me or are there are a lot of Winter Vulpix eggs in the Shelter? Like, easily as common as DW or Slime Slugma, and they seem to last for quite a few refreshes, too. I rarely see any other novelties, not that I really look for them. Has everyone just hit their limit for those?
Congrats to the new Black Knights!
I just want to mention that I have two ongoing shiny hunts: Happiny and Dratini because I want a pink shiny. Also Relicanth, Bagon and Larvitar whenever I can find the eggs.
But yes, just felt I should mention them.
In other news, I put in a spare Regice and got a Darkrai from the exchange. Something new I suppose
Congratulations to MiTYH and The Yatagarasu!
Welcome to the Black Knights
Luckily today I found that I had 10 minutes spare and so decided to do a little bit of clicking. Managed 979 interactions in those 10 minutes. The rule of 1k average per day has really given me incentive to click at least a little bit daily. I will try to find the time from now on through my other commitments.
Also, may I ask what the Honourary Old Guard is? How is it different from a Black Knight?
Yay more Black Knights! Congrats guys
In other news, I'm going to start two new hunts: Mareep and Nidoran♂, just because Nidoking is epic that blue and Mareep is cotton candy and fluffy and adorable
@DigitalEon: I /never/ see winter vulpixes anymore. I already got two from the shelter so that might explain it for me. Have you not gotten two from the shelter yet? :0
@Akina: Ye old guard or whatever the title was, is special. Due to Romeo/Yuzuru being the old leader of the group :>. It's sort of honoring his legacy if I'm correct.
EDIT: ninja'd xD
EDIT 2: Ppfft. Totally missed the whole new black knights thingy. Congrats MiTYH & The Yatagarasu~
Congrats to our two newest Black Knights. =D
No new shinies for me yet, though I suppose it is a bit soon. I only hatched my last one on Sunday, but it seems like much longer than that.
And yes, I have noticed a ton of Winter Vulpix eggs in the shelter lately. I bet it's because they're probably the most loved novelty on the site. Everyone's breeding them.
As for the exchange, I put in Azelf and got Regirock. Which happened to be the one Pokemon I wanted least, but I try not to complain. At least it's a new Pokedex entry, right?
I see WVs on quite a few occasions in the shelter. I'm always tempted to adopt them while looking for eggs for my shiny hunts. Wouldn't mind a shiny one myself!
Pineco's my longest recorded hunt now. Hatched 275 of those according to the recorder, though I hatched quite a few more before I put it in there. In my dex, Pineco's the fourth most obtained egg I ever got, with 305.
It's been forever since my last shiny. Le sigh~ I'm up to near six hundred on my shiny Swablu hunt.
I put a darkrai in the exchange and got one right back. >.> I'm okay with it, since I didn't have the egg dex...and now I get to keep the Darkrai...but a part of me really wanted something new. There's not really a lot of chances to fill out my dex unless I'm feeling like spending forever in the shelter.
@Akina. Yuzuru was our former owner but he's no longer playing the game for all intent and purposes, so I gave him an honourary rank in our group because he's a great guy and deserves a special acknowledgment. Basically, what it means for the rest of the group, is that if he says something, listen. He can start his own topics and stuff like that.
I cancelled my Caterpie hunt last week or so to get the Quitter achievement. Still my longest hunt. At this rate, I'll be able to start a new one before I get that shiny.
Heeeyyy, congrats, MiTYH and Yata on your new knighthood! Confetti all around~ *tosses a handful*
I feel like I haven't hatched a shiny in a while even though I barely hatched Lucille just about the last couple of days before I left. Meh, maybe it's just the fact that I haven't been as active. Dunno, really.
Mostly right now I'm searching for the other three of the Sinister Six (Spearow = The Vulture, Rotom = Electro, Hypno = Mysterio), plus I've also been picking up Abra and Caterpie eggs. Abra is a hunt I started waaaay back in olden days (literally back in the days of the Goodfellows) and still haven't found after just over 420 eggs. Caterpie is just another spare hunt since I can usually find Caterpie eggs even if the other four are hiding from me. (I'm planning Butterfree to be Mary Jane, by the way )
Anywho, I just got back in from washing and waxing two cars... My arm's a little sore from the waxing part, so any further clicking today will most likely be pretty casual.
EDIT: SWEET. Picked up a Magma Rock from the backroom. That was one of the ones I needed, yaaay~ >w<
Thanks for the information on my question guys. I want to be more involved with the group this time round. My last shiny was the shiny I got from the competition vouchers. I suppose it was because until two weeks ago I was just raising all my lab rares to level 100. Now I am bothering to hatch eggs so hopefully a shiny will come soon.
@Digital Eon: Ahh..I see. The only novelties I can see are shellderboy (only have one of those), remorage (also one), and bidofo (have 3 out of 10 possible). I'm kinda confused how there's no 2 limit on bidofo since you can change it's form to anyone you want w/ no charge ( and per 5 days). But whatever..I'm not one tooug complain xD;
@Shiny-ness topic: Nyeh. I got a shiny mudkip on monday. So I really can't complain ^^;. I get really impatient with shiny hunts though..not really because I want to get the shiny as much as it bores me to hatch the same egg type over and over >____<. Thus, I give up totally dedicating myself to official hunts and I grab random eggs (other shiny wants) as well as my shiny hunt eggs. I like mixing it up :>
@Ock: I want your caterpie luck. I see them occasionally now (don't grab em really), but i just /know/ when I start hunting them..they will never be seen by these eyes again o_o
Yes, it's weird how the supposedly common eggs are sometimes really hard to find in the shelter, when you expect masses of them. There seem to always be more of the rarer Pokemon that people like more.
Maybe start a group for breeding certain 'rare' common eggs. Just a thought. I may do it myself...
@Akina: It's a conspiracy.
I like that idea, but I don't think it would be "passed" as a group..or what's that word....I don't remember...but it may be rejected due to their being "too many breeding groups". Mine was only passed I think because it was a remake of a dead group (the mass breeding project group). I'm just saying this because I see a lot of breeding groups in the rejected group area with the subheading "too many breeding groups" or somethin' like that. It's a shame the only breeding group that is livid with life is the breeding aristocracy..which is basically just of novelties. My group is deadish. BUT I SHALL REVIVE IT..some how...i dunno.
--
On a totally unrelated to this but related to the shiny topic note, I wish that the pokemon you hatched was given a number..so that you could tell exactly which number egg a shiny is. I know you can do it manually, but I always forget to mark it down. :/
I think it's really only been like 200 eggs since my last shiny but I'm not sure.......
--
In other news, I'm so close to 500k interactions and master hatcher I can taste it :9. I'll never get master breeder at the rate I'm going ><;
VR: It's worth a try and I might make the group whenever I get half an hour and see if it is passed. On tbe topic of groups, I am closing down my group of Corrupters because it is dead. It is so hard to keep a group alive these days. Apart from this group because it is ultimately one huge discussion which is easy to keep alive!
There's a group called the Dex Breeding Brigade with a similar enough concept (make all breedable commons, uncommons, and rares available in the shelter regularly), but there's not many participants.
Congrats on the two new black knights! They definitely would have been my first choices
Also, I feel like I really lucked out in the exchange. I got a Mesprit for my Registeel, which I'm really happy about considering that I entered late and made very few interactions. But I guess that Mesprits are common now, since they've been in so many events. Also, I would really like to know who got my Registeel
uhm congrats new black knights o.O (even though I don't know any of them xD)
@Viciously rotten: I think I already hatched over 400... :< and also no luck in exchange make me think that I finally gave my luck to someone else x.x lol
also... I refreshed over only silver wing I ever seen in br... what a shame after whole that 'I will finally get it' determination >.>
P.S: it's good to be back between knights
So shiny luck has once again struck:
http://gpxpl.us/rPMjq
Totally random, needed the egg for my egg dex and it turns out shiny
Ummmmm, I don't know what to say ..... You'll get it eventually ^^ *has swablu sprinkle shiny dust on everyone's eggs*
Congrats to the new Black Knights.
I was just checking some things, and came to the conclusion that my shiny luck must really be low. 23 shinies, 21 of which I hatched myself, out of 7160 eggs. That's 1 in 340 eggs on average. How do people with approximately the same number of eggs end up with twice as many shinies? I know, it all comes down to luck, but I'm vaguely under the impression that I am doing something wrong here.
Congrats monster415!
It's been roughly 300 eggs since I hatched my last one. My ratio's 1:228 eggs. Not entirely bad, probably boosted from that day I caught the bad shine flu.
Also I was finally able to find a Squirtle Clone egg! All I need is Zombidofo (which I'll get to...eventually) and my novelty egg dex is done!
My ratio is 1 in 205... but I only have seven shinies, and that includes some really lucky ones (I hatched a shiny Bulbasaur on my second Bulba egg ever, while getting one for an achievement, and the Happiny was by chance as well). Most of my hunts have been pretty fast, save for the three ongoing ones. >_> But then, I didn't get a shiny until my eggdex/Pokedex of non-Unowns, non-Legendaries, was completed and I actively began to hunt.
yessssss

#42
Strange, the 40s seem to be my thing lately.
Species: Gligar
Total Hatched: 42
Species: Volbeat
Total Hatched: 42
Species: Gible
Total Hatched: 41
Species: Igglybuff
Total Hatched: 46
Those are all consecutive shinies. My ratio is 1:197 btw.
Congrats Yata - those shiny Gligars are sure pretty!!!
Reading every bodies Ratio to shiny made me work mine out - i have never really wanted to know but why not hey? thought i'd just see.
Well mine is 1:239 Thats amazing really, similar to many other's..Even though i've hatched 53 of them i've also hatched over 12k eggs.
Congrats on the new shinies !
Oh, my shiny ratio is 1/310 ... 609 eggs hatched since my last shiny ...
Congrats to everyone who deserves one (shinies/ new rank)
My last shiny was a http://gpxplus.net/info/KHRSq 3 days ago <3
Congrars to Monster on the Shiny Altaria, it sure is beautiful. Also congrats to Yata on the shiny Gligar.
On the subject of shiny ratios, would I have to exclude the shint I got from a voucher?
Congratulations on the new shinies. And after hatching so few eggs, too.
I'm gaining a new perspective on GPX's lag right now. Suddenly, those 404s don't seem nearly as bad as when you're getting them constantly, with two-second reprieves but no real break, on my university's course registration website. It's actually a lot more frustrating when it's really important, no matter how vital mass-clicking may feel at the time. Seriously, I think I could put up with a x2 clicking day and try for 12k after dealing with this!
Congrats on the shiny dragon! One of my favorites for sure.
My ratio's apparently somewhere around 1/223, which I guess isn't too terrible considering I've only hatched around 4.5k eggs with 20 shinies. Still, I tend to have days of multiple shinies and then month+ streaks of nothingness, like I'm in now (over a month since the last one).
Hatched 2351 eggs with 7 legit shinies.
So that makes my ratio 1/336.
That's not bad since I don't really shiny hunt. Every single one of my shinies (except 1) was random.
Now that I shiny hunt eggs, I can see that ratio getting better soon.
congrats to shinies esp Altaria I have being hunting forever and day *sighs*
now look what I got this nice morning http://gpxpl.us/jVfjq
yes I know I hog all novelties xD
oh to the shiny ratio: 26/3925 which means 1/151... hmm I would say not bad o.O
Congrats on all the new shinies (especially that glowing purple pudding slug...)
And lets see...I have 15 shinies and hatched 2,720 total making my shiny ratio.....181.3333333.....not too bad...
Shiny luck is always strong here, it seems... Congrats for the golden cotton-bird and the purple slime, and to others I forgot.
I need to catch the shine flu, I have hatched over 600 eggs since my shiny Linoone. My shiny ratio is 1/350, not too bad considering it was once above 1/800...
I too would like to hatch a shiny. It sounds weird, but I've forgotten what it feels like. Plus I need to hatch one more shiny and then I can have a full party of level 1 shinies to raise to level 100.
Happiny and Dratini may take a while to hunt though due to high maturity...
First of all Username change time: I went from Viciously Rotten to Tequila Mockingbird. I wanted something nicer sounding and I'm not that into the band Sex Pistols anymore...which inspired my previous username. I also really like play on words xD
ALSO, congrats on the shinies, guys~ x3 I would say more profound stuff but I'm not feeling very good at this very moment >____>;;
Congrats on all of the new shinies!
I'm still working on finding my shiny vulpix... 622 eggs now
My gosh, guys... you're all insane! Three shinies since I last checked in last night! Somehow it seems like everybody hatches their shinies while I'm asleep.it's a conspiracy
So anywho, congrats to monster for that lovely golden Altaria ( I admit I have a slight case of shine jealousy for that one since it's one of the hunts that I'll get to eventually), Yata for the blue Gligar, and especially to BlackMamba for the radioactive purple pudding! Congratulations all around!
Seeing how everybody's doing it (lol bandwagon ), my shiny ratio is 1:229 - 11 shinies for 2519 eggs, the most recent one being Lucille the Drowzee about two weeks ago or so. But then there is the fact that three of said shinies are genderfails... meh, I'm counting them anyway since I'm keeping them. *shrug*
And now for delicious mint Oreo shake with some original series Star Trek.
Ohh. I forgot to post my shiny ratio.
10:2866 = ~1:287
not too great, but not too shabby either :]
More shinies, you guys?
BTW, I like your name, VR, or Tequila Mockingbird!
And something I wanna ask, does nature affect how much maturity a Pokemon gets, because my Victreebel's at level 60 while my Charizard, who takes the same amount of maturity to level up, is up at 66. Victreebel is Bashful while my Charizard is Naughty. I figured this is because Victreebel doesn't have a preference in berries while Charizard does.
I've found that the ones who don't have a preference do level slower. I put my Latios and Latias in my party at the same time, but my Latios was leveling faster because he has a preference and the Latias does not.
Congrats on the recent shinies!
Congrats to the new Black Knights! Awesome, guys!
Congrats also on the shiny Gligar, Alaria, and Slime. ^.^
Only counting shinies I've hatched myself, my shiny ratio's about 1:284. Counting shelter steals, it's 1:255. Slightly higher than the last time I checked, but still nothing to exult over ^.^;;
@ShatteredGlass: Thanks :3
And to add to everything others said. I feel this slower exp for no preference pokemon is to make things fairer and on an equal playing ground so to speak. Preferenced pokemon are fed the wrong berry a lot and thus given lower exp. Thus, no pref pokemon might be given less exp just to make it even.
It kind of goes hand in hand with the shelter grabs rule. If the correct berry clause wasn't there, there'd be an unfair advantage for mass-clickers (us xD).
This site really goes out of it's way to make everything fair. Of course, some of the changes are pain to a lot. But, in the end..I think it all evens out :>though that ditto limit drives me insane. I want blue goo ;__;
I tend to pay attention to the correct berry more now because of the new shelter grab rule. At first I was kinda dreading it but now I find it to be kinda fun! Sometimes I slip up and click the middle one when I go too fast but I try!
I don't pay attention to correct berries anymore. Which is ironic considering my past .___.
I've just gotten incredibly lazy and just no caring lately :/.
I mean..I click the right berry occasionally..usually within my interaction tab...but only when I'm in the mood. And I'm a rather moody person so it's rather sporadic xD;
When I get back into the /extreme/ mass-clicking mood...I might go back to the people I've clicked and use odd incense and feed the right berry....but now..I'm just getting 3-5k clicks done in short amounts of time because I just don't feel like clicking much anymore :/
I think it's the lack of caffeine in my system withdrawal D:
@Tequila. Don't forget to PM me your name change...if not, I'll forget to change it when I do my post editing.
Announcing New Shiny Hunts:
All my current hunts are of 10,240 maturity eggs and I look to hatch 12 per day through views and a few interactions. However sometimes I have maybe 2-3 hours before I sleep and so cannot hatch a 10,240 maturity egg.
So I am announcing hunts of Eevee and Kanto Starters to fill in those time gaps.
Eevee fails: 63
Charmander fails: 3
Squirtle fails: 3
Bulbasaur fails; 4
I never really cared about feeding the right berries as I tend to have a "be happy I fed in the first place" attitude. With the new shelter grab system I still manage to get more then enough extra grabs by only the middle berry. I might start opening only pokemon tabs to get my proper berry count up for master feeder. I'm at 34k proper berries with a total of 550k interactions. Yeah that count is pretty low .....
Oh and my shiny ratio is about 1:260 which is pretty decent and close to what almost everyone here averages.
I always tried to pay attention to correct berries, unless I'm trying to mass-click. Nowadays, I start the day with lots of correct berries. Once I'm in today's top-10 of correct berries, I don't care any more and just click as fast as possible. But it also depends; when I was hatching Pichu eggs to hunt a shiny, I needed as many shelter grabs as I could, so more correct berries. Today I started my day with 2 legendaries, and 2 dragons. So I mostly needed a lot of clicks to hatch them, so less attention to correct berries.
Anyway, I like the fact that correct berry clicking is rewarded now, with shelter grabs.
On shiny hunts: I usually choose one with a very common egg (currently Buneary, was still available at all times even on the 2xExp day), and one low maturity egg (so I can still hatch a lot even on a slow day). However, today is weird, I seem to be able to find rare eggs in the lab all the time, and those take precedence over my shiny hunts (a shiny lab rare however, would be awesome!). So my party seems to be quire inconsistent with what my shine recorder indicates at the moment.
PS: my trade boxes are getting full, so if someone still needs a summonable legendary, a female Togepi or a safari Kangaskhan, let me know.
I don't care at all for correct berries. Normllay 1 in 12 of my interactions is proper berry interaction and I am patient enough to wait a long time for Master Feeder. Need 12k more propers, so 144k more interactions.
@SagaDavid: I also want a shiny lab rare. I currently have over 60 fails but I haven't looked for them for a while. Plus the new lab system makes it slightly harder because it hardly ever empties.
EDIT: Saga, I could do with a Safari Kanga if you don't mind. Could you maybe keep 5 on the side?
If anyone has yet to obtain a Summer Swinub, I'll be releasing 13 of them and a Summer Mamoswine at 3:00 3:15 server time.
Pushed the time to 3:15, in hopes that the lag will be gone by then.
Is it just me or is the site moving a bit slow? It timed out and now the calculator's stuck and also the site was lagging a little bit.

STUPID LAG!!!
FFFFFFF. aedejfdkla! I didn't even press send twice D:<
Yeah the exp calculator crashed and the site is lagging like hell again x.x
If it doesn't stop soon, I'll postpone the Summer Swinub drop indefinitely. I think it mat be over, though.
*knocks on wood*
Aye, the lag is killing me on my phone. Thank God I'm not clicking anymore - done for the day. Hopefully the calculator mends so I can hatch and change my eggs before I sleep.

EDIT: Goddamnit! This lag caused a triple post! Sorry guys. I didn't mean to.
Mmhm yeah, so I'm not imagining this crazy lag after all... well, maybe after I get back from going to the fair with my cousin it'll have gone away. *knocks on wood with Harmonious*
Urgh, I hate lag...
This is becoming too much to bear! I want to hatch my eggs already! Normally BB/Zerxer is on by now...
yes it is slow and exp calculator broken ._. (again)
to the berries: I used to click right berries all the time but now I really only care to get some extra shelter grabs ;
Meh, the shelter hrabs don't appeal to me because I'm not active enough. Plus I get enough extra grabs just from total interactions instead of proper when I do happen to be active...
The lag and exp calc being stuck is annoying me, too. >__< I filled up my party before going offline for a couple of hours to take a nap, and not even the Taillow egg I got is hatched yet. Mrrh. Guess I won't be able to stalk for another hour or so (x.x or however long it takes the exp calc to be fixed).
It's been over five hours since the site started to lag and the exp calculator got stuck. From the looks of it they tried to fix it to get clicks registered but they still didn't work. Feels weird when you have two eggs that are really close to hatching and this happens. I really hope they fix it soon!
Curses, my mass clicking plans of domination have been foiled! *wrings her hands in a villainous manner*
Also I've had a shroomish egg almost ready to hatch for like an hour now.

*sigh* I know this is just a game. And I really shouldn't care too much. But, this was such a horrible day to have blown out of the water. since I'm home alone atm and no one's here to annoy me.
Also, my eevee's at like 99% with onlyn like 35 exp needed to hatch. which is annoying even on regular basis..but it being that way for 5 hours or so is arggh xD
I wonder if we'll get a CM day tomorrow for this trouble -prays- xDD
I've been clicking all day, even with all the gateway errors... it took me a few hours to actually realise that the calculator was broken, when I noticed that none of my eggs had been hatching.
I hope it gets fixed soon...

Yeah they need to make a rule for if the exp calculator breaks its at least a x1.5 day the day after, if it takes forever to fix like today, then it should be a x2 or more day

Wow, this is still going on? I saw it start at like 2:45 and I just got back... that stinks for today's stuff, hope they get it fixed soon
EDIT: I loves me some double post. To prevent this thread from growing out of hand I'm going on radio silence until this lag is over

Okay guys, there's a way to prevent double posts (or more). I've figured it out..and it works 90% of the time.
1)Never refresh/reload after pressing send.
2)Never press send more than once..even if it /seems/ it didn't register. It most likely did.
3)Upon the error showing up (which most likely happens), just "x" out. Your post may have survived and is up. Most of mine have so far..all...I dunno...4 or 5 of them?
Now, I'm not saying this method is fool-proof..but it /seems/ to be working. I just figured some of you may want to post out of boredom, but are afraid of double/triple/etc posting...
Watch me get a double post now xDD...I did say it only works about 90% of them time >___>
EDIT: My method works again! x]
ignore..... x.x
ignore..... x.x
Bleh, the calculator's still stuck even after me being out all afternoon. And here I was hoping to get some extra clicking done today too since I'll be on the road all day tomorrow... crapola.
Well, doesn't look like I'll get my 1k today or tomorrow most likely.
(I suppose it depends on what time I get back tomorrow night - it may be after reset, but it might not. It's variable. *shrug*)
Argh sorry for the triple post guys.
Yeah my bad for all those posts, my little cousin was using my computer and apparently refreshed like 10 times before closing the page opening another tab
I wonder what's gonna happen once the reset happens. Is everything gonna remain the same or will any eggs be fully cracked or whatever?
I'm just hoping that they don't have to reset the server from the backup ...................
And the other part of me is hoping for a x2 day
Reset happened and no change.
Oh well. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow I'm really busy due to family staying the weekend - might not even be able to click back at this rate. I feel kind of relieved to have this happen at the same time as lag (and a bit worried I cursed it!). Hope things get better soon, though.
I'm pretty upset too. My Piplup egg was around 55 points away from hatching and my I put my Grovyle I usually put in the Seeker in my party and he didn't gain any experience! ;_; I hope this gets fixed soon!
EDIT: Apparently it's working now!
Yeah its working, however we just lost a full day of exp and stalking......... *feels like those 20k interactions by noon server time were a waste*
@MD: lawl, I know. Just giving a bit of a heads up though. I figured it'd probably be a good idea so's I didn't just drop off the radar like I did a few weeks ago.
Well, the calculator seems to be fixed (at least it's not spinning around endlessly up in the corner anymore) and the lag's not quite as bad... I may be able to get in my 1k for this GPX "day". ocky is way too addicted to this site
in-the-middle-of-posting-edit: Ninja'd on the lag stuff, hurr.
actual edit: Completely forgot the whole point of me coming in here - I found a Tiny Mushroom checking my party. Only 3 more to go for Mycologist...
You know what annoys me? Lately I've been getting quite a few 403 errors ("Octillery, use Octazooka") when I click. I don't really like going refresh all the pages that have that. Also, sometimes when I click on something on the forums, I'm redirected to the main page of the forums. The URL for whatever page I was gonna look at is there though.
EDIT: Oh, I just thought up a pretty interesting topic:
How many people have added you to their Pal Pad?
My current total is 421. Around half of the people who do are usually active. And quite a few of them are my fellow Knights! Speaking of Pal Pads, sorry I can't add all you guys!
@ topic: 226 atm. I have people add and delete me every day lol. I also changed my name a lot so it confuses people. For w/e reason there's some who add me the first day they join, sometimes w/o me even having clicked them first.
Quite annoying to wake up this morning to see that my eggs had not gained much exp since last evening. But well, they are progressing now, so no big loss.
and I see the site says it's a 1.2x day now. Is that some sort of compensation for lost interactions perhaps?
@topic: 371 have added me to their pal pads. but I must admit I haven't payd much attention to it lately
@ Topic. I've got 478. Though, lots of them never click back. Alas.
I haven't been active lately and won't be til next Friday. Enough to do palpad and clickbacks, but not more. I've dropped from 6/7ranking to 9/10 over the last few days.
Sadness. I have a project I'm doing elsewhere.
And then it's my birthday on the 13th...and I'm going to the Cape on the 12/13th. I should be back to form on the 14th.
Oh, exp calculator was not fixed yesterday. I was wondering why none of my eggs was ready to hatch when I woke up this morning, and thought "The knights surely know"... so that what the reason.
And I can't click today meh. Don't really care though.
@topic : 178 users have added me. At least half of them are inactive x)
Hey everyone,
@ topic - 501, like others though not all click back..but iam not too worried, as i use it as an extended palpad so it gives me more to click..so it benefits me anyway you look at it.
Being in Australia this is my most active time of day now with clicking, but only about 400-600 users are online. So the extended palpad gives me more to click :-)
@Topic 104 lol
Like KOJ Everyone is asleep in America!!! not many users on for clicking
I'm baaack.
@com103 I'm on server time in the US and I'm awake. I woke up early, lol.
@ Topic: 443 - I'm very happy with that
Oh, and about Google Chrome - you can only open a max of 25 tabs, but I believe you can click it several times to get a higher number.
@Topic: 238 have me added, but as has been observed, most don't click back. I do my best to at least return all clickbacks daily, but I don't always click my "people-who-have-me-added" list unless I'm really mass-clicking and have exhausted the online list. Which doesn't often happen during my hours of activity.
Topic: Only 79 have added me. I suppose that's what you get when you change your name and when you are semi-inactive for a couple of months. I feel like a noob compared to you all now. I suppose I don't click 'People who have added me'. Maybe that's why less people add me.
Meanwhile, shiny eevee fails hatched and adopted some 10,240 maturity eggs. Won't be on for at least 6 hours now. Going out to play some sports
227 have added me, which is a fine number I feel.
I'm happy the site is working now form last night, too bad all those interactions seemed to have been for naught. Ah well.
I won't be on very much today, a friend is visiting, so most of my clicks are happening now. I'll make up for it tomorrow though, that's for sure!
Hehe. I sometimes randomly wake up to check GPX; a habit of mine! I usually go to sleep kinda late, especially during the weekend or when I have a day off. I gotta start going to sleep a little earlier though.
I lolled @ x 1.2 ... like wut is that supposed to be anyway o.O
congrats to shiny riolu and her gender... *jealous grin*
to the topic
How many people have added you to their Pal Pad?
357, I think it's one of the best between non-massclickers... so I am happy... don't care about the fact some don't click back...
EDIT : Yes, sorry I corrected
King of Ice - you need to read the rules again mate, you can't post that in here..
@ topic - 80 users who have added me x) but, it's not a problem =D
So, 640 eggs since my last shiny.. Yipee
Only 63 have added me XD
Also, I just missed my first legitimate summon. I must have opened 200 tabs of the lab in that time, and I stole someone else's and missed a Kyogre, and saw about 5-10 different lab rares in there :P
EDIT: Oh, and just now:
http://gpxpl.us/Tzmjq
My second completed shine recorder hunt!
Now I have a shiny iggly and a cleffa XD
Pffft only 73 people have added me to their pal pads. XD
107 people have added me.
It's not as high as it could be, but it's high enough to satisfy me.
@Topic: Only 25 have added me. God bless them!
Evolved my Shiny Shellder today. That blue guy looks cool.
http://gpxpl.us/VMIpq
Cool. Second Mewtwo. I will punt him into exchange when it will show. ^ ^
Edit:
Me add 72 persons.
@Topic: ...21 have added me...Do I win for least amount of people XD
Yesssss
http://gpxpl.us/gAmjq
It was egg #632, and I am SO happy that this hunt is finally over!
@The Kimiyo: You're not supposed to post eggs. It's against the rules - site-wide and group-wide. >__>;; I think posting /hatched/ shinies are the only exception for this thread. And most other threads.
@Topic: 63 people have added me. I'm waiting for 69. lawl. xD Anyways, A lot are inactive/don't click back though. :/ But my OCD makes me click them anyways xD;;
Thirdly, congrats on all the shines, people~
After the Lab Unown I missed Tuesday, I just missed one in the Shelter, and it's not a Cypress bred. Did someone get it ?
Edit : Nevermind, I finally found it in the Online list. I really hope it's not one of the 5 I still need... ><
Congrats Samike on te Pink and Green Cleffa. Also to Viktorya on te Shiny Ninetails.
I couldn't do any clicks today. Sport commitment for 9 hours and so no time at all. Maybe hatch and change my eggs through my phone before I sleep.
Hopefully I'll be able to click tomorrow.
Hi guys! Back from my beach vacation. My how things have changed with the group remake and everything. o-o
We were getting pretty big there with 26413567323456 pages in the last thread lol.
Adelaide, I cannot agree more. I got put off by the huge thread. Hopefully this one might be more compact and organised. But I can see an exponential increase in posts coming soon.
Speaking of Unowns, it's been an age since I've seen one. Would be nice to find one in the lab sometime soon.
first of all, congrats to all shinies
secondly... it is not really true, that unowns are hard to find... it's all about right time stalking so far I always see at least one unown in the lab per day, whether it's new or old for me...
@Koj: I'm sorry ;__;. I have a bit of a "big mouth". ^^; It won't happen again. :] and no need to write out my entire username. Just Tequila is fine..since my username is rather long. Or just TM...or the whole thing I guess if you feel like it. I can't stop you xDDD
@Unknown Topic: I have only seen unknown a couple of times..before and after the update. Got ninja'd out of 'em everytime ;__;. My only one is from an announced drop :0. Of course, I, like, never go to the lab. Only shelter usually for shiny hunt grabs. And when I run out and go to the lab, I get lazy and just grab an egg of a pokemon's who shiny form I am fond of xD. I get bored of refreshing the lab after like 5 minutes only xD.
Oh and I've seen a cypress unknown once. got ninja'd out of that too :<
@topic: 1,967 for now. I wonder who is going to be 2,000th one
Congrats to all shinies.
I did have little bit unlucky again about to get shiny. After hatched Shiny Delibird, I needed to hatch 1,002 eggs to get this: http://gpxpl.us/GSqjq 31st egg.
Meh...
@TM - thats ok, and yes shorting your name is easier(although i just copy and paste anyway).
@ Meph - Congrats, i think now we have quite a few shinies it seems it gets more harder to hatch them now, i mean in hatching ratio!
Unknown have become harder since the lab generates at different times now - just a matter of stalking alot more now..Not for me anymore, but for others i can see the difficulty.
I haven't found an Unown in the lab in ages. Maybe because I don't stalk around there so much. Perhaps I should try that more often! I only found 4 eggs and the others I got were already hatched.
I found a lab unknown about a week ago while stalking for a summon that I ended up missing. It was only the second unknown I've seen in the lab; the other one I have I got from a ban drop.
@topic: I've gotten a cypress unown in the shelter. I also got 1 hatched unown and just recently found one in the shelter. Saw but missed a ditto a few weeks back and i'm still kicking myself for it.
AND! HUZZAH! I FINALLY DID IT! It took, what, 11 shellderboy eggs and a month or two to get them after a dry spell, but I finally finally got a male one for my achievement. SO! I will be releasing today (sunday) the following pokemon I have been saving since I started the hunt:
- 10 female shellderboys
- 1 male shellderboy
- 8 slime slugmas
- 2 fossil anoriths
- 4 summer swinubs
- 1 primal dialga
- 1 clone charmander
- 1 clone bulbasaur
- 3 phiones
- 1 remorage
- 1 easter bunneary
- 1 valentacool
- 1 winter vulpix
- 1 fossil lileep
- 1 fossil reclanithinthinththitnhtinh
- 1 palkia
If there's anything you really really want, PM me. It'll be a first come first serve type of deal. I won't be able to release them until today at after about 3pm, but we can work out times. Anything unclaimed will be dropped at my choosing around 3ish when i get back. And this offer is only for you Knights out there, so I'll try to accomodate everyone, but it is first come first serve.
EDIT: Hatched a second male shellderboy... of course I did......
@MiTYH: I would love to try for that male Shellderboy!
Unowns are ridiculously hard to find now. It was the worst timing, too, the minute I get down to just 3 left, they go and change it so it's almost impossible to find them
I can still get them, though, if I spend about 30 minutes in a row refreshing I'll usually get one, but that process is much more frustrating and time-consuming than the old method. And I've never seen a Cypress-bred one in the shelter :P
I actually see at least 2 unowns every hour, though I always either refresh over them or simply don't get em. I'm not too worried, after I get corporate Imma stock up on about one hundred repels and then lab stalk :P
I've only seen one Unown in the shelter. Luckily, I managed to snag it before anyone else!
I don't really look in the lab at all, though... maybe I should start spending more time there? I used to stalk it a lot, but once I got into shiny hunting I just gave up because it was so time-consuming.
Dammit! I just noticed that someone hatched a shiny Piplup from my breeding pair! This is the third time that happened! It's bad enough that they're hard to find in the shelter!
I've considered going back to lab stalking on occasion because a lot of people seem to miss summons. But the time consumation really puts me off it. Especially when I struggle to find 30 minutes to play everyday.
Lab stalking does take a lot of time. But since it gave me my shiny Latias, and since I seem to find an Unown about every week, it's worth the time for me. And collecting rare eggs from the lab is a nice bonus, I'm hoping to replace all the rares in my living dex with pokemon from the lab, and that plan is progressing nicely ( I find so many now, that I'm falling behind in getting them evolved and/or up to lv 100, but anyway).
http://gpxpl.us/PLkID
Woohoo, completed my shiny hunt that I originally started back in April. The best part about it is that I bred the egg myself!
Thanks guys!
@king: You can do it! Remember my almost 1k egg hunt for my Budew? Hopefully yours will come soon!
... Why I'm not here now ? :'(
http://gpxplus.net/user/MickySH#stats
SO I'M OFFICIALLY BACK NOW
instead of ninja'ing off of some wireless signal
Yeah. So anywho, congrats to the three people that got shinies~
(Adelaide and Viktorya are the ones I remember... you know who you are, third person, right? o_x)
I had a hunt for shiny Horsea (well, to be more exact, Kingdra) a while back that I dropped to go after shiny Abra. I'll pick it up again... eventually. sometime in the next century
@Adelaide: Congrats on the shiny Horsea! It looks wonderful
@Akina: Well, that's not quite true - you'll still have the same chance of hatching a shiny no matter how many eggs you hatch. It's really just a matter of luck.
I'm taking a break from non-stop hunting (trying to get Gulpin now) to hatch some fossils and finish up some breeding achievements... I think I'll use this time to stalk the lab, too. I hope I find something good!
Welcome back Doc Oct~
Also, today has been a great day for shelter stalking. I snagged a Valententacool and a Kyogre. If only my luck could be like this all the time. I hope every else is having a great day as well.
Welcome back Doctor!
I completely forgot about Shiny Gulpin achievement.
I may move onto that when I hatch a few more shinies. Somebody might need to remind me though...
*joins the shiny party*

Side hunt I've had going for a while. I wanted one ever since I saw a shiny silcoon.
Congrats Yata on the shiny bugger! Are you going to only evolve it once, or will you go fully?
About to hatch 6 eggs: 2 Happiny, 3 Bagon and a Squirtle. Wish me shiny luck!
congrats to all shinies people nice ones... I love the horsea's colour as well btw xD
@ Micky welcome back but you have to apply again XD
also wb to Doc too
Congrats for the all Shinies ... I want my Shiny Yanma (106 eggs), Rotom (219 eggs) or Lunatone (58 eggs) ! ><
All these people talking about shiny hunts make me want to hunt other shinies too! I cannot handle it. Soon I might have 100 odd hunts going simultaneously.
Congrats on the new shinies!
I decided on a whim to buy a bunch of Water Stones and evolve all the Shellder fails I hatched so far into Cloysters. I dunno, because I was bored.
Forgot to post this earlier, but yeah saw my 3rd Unown egg in one day (and this time got it)
Congrats on the Unown Monster! Patience pays off for you then.
Lol ShatteredGlass, such a waste of credits. If only you could have given them to me...
@Akina: I only bought 16 since I only had 16 fails in my boxes. I have a boatload of points so I figured "yeah, I should do it; don't wanna let this stuff go to waste". Besides, I was kinda getting upset that none of the Shellders I dropped were being picked up, so I evolved them all in hopes that they could! Silly yes, but what's done is done.
this was fast hunt...
http://gpxpl.us/dMOSq
as promised I named her BlackIce xDDD
@Akina: They were from the back room. There were around 36ish or so.
And finally, after over 300 eggs without a shiny...
http://gpxpl.us/OLpID Yay!
I hatch this! I was gonna hunt for one in the future but one side hunt out of the way. I really do hope one of my recorded hunts ends!
EDIT: I checked its heritage and I saw that not only was the breeder looking for one but someone named Mreow got a shiny one from the same pair as well.
Oh man, shinies gallore! Congrats to all! Esp. the shinx, love that one!
To all who care: In 5 minutes I'm doing the drop of all novelties/legends I mentioned 1 page or 2 ago (sans male shellderboy that was requested), so gl to all!
Just thought I'd mention that I re-did my pal pad and added as many Knights as I could. I think I managed to add all the Black Knights at least. Because I can expect clickbacks from you guys and so will try to click you all daily from now on
Ugh, I am sick of seeing Slime Slugmas. I've stopped calling them a Novelty because there have been so many. :/
Congrats on the Shinx and Lotad!
Just a heads up for everyone -- I'm going on a week-long college visiting trip tomorrow and won't be able to get online until we get back.
wow... is it just me or lab has no legends today xx
also congrats to shiny lotad
At least you people see Unknowns, I've seen one. Just one. At least I got it though.
LOLWUT
Three shinies hatched since I checked about six hours ago. THREE.
You guys are so amazing
Anywho, congrats to Yata on the shiny Silcoon, Mamba on the shiny Shinx, and Shattered on the shiny Lotad!
Oh, and to monster for nabbing an Unown. It's pretty sweet when that happens, I must say...
It is nice to be back home again. Thanks guys.
Although then again, school starts on Wednesday so my activity will be cut down a bit. I'll still easily be able to make 1k, but gneeee I won't be able to check on my eggs every five minuuuutes
I start school in a couple of weeks too, on the 23rd to be more specific. It'll be the usual MWF schedule I've had the past couple of years, but I'll have to get used to not clicking so much every day.
Forgot to mention it, but congrats on the shiny Silcoon and Shinx! You were lucky, Mamba. Your hunt for that was short. Mine dragged on for three months!
Congrats on the shinies. I just PMd my form to Mommy Dearest. Yay!
I start September 6th for college (I move in on the first though), so I guess I'm really late compared to everyone o.o
AND HOW DID I FORGET TO SAY CONGRATS ON THE SHINIES!
I think I have been forgetting to say something...... *thinks* ....... Oh yeah GRATZ to all the new shinies
On that topic I think I hit a drought
EDIT: I go back to college August 29th. All my classes are morning so I'll be done by noon
Lots of college students here! I move back in to dorm life Aug 20, and classes start on the 24th. I don't think it'll impact my clicking that much...unless someone addicts me to MapleStory again. >_>
Congrats on the latest round of shinies, wow!
With this group's shiny luck, imagine if we had a group account XD. I mean I think we would get at least 2-3 shinies each day.
I think it's amazing how you guys are on break now and go back to school/college etc in Sept..Which is right in the middle of the school year here in Australia.
My daughter is at school now - their summer holidays(or major break) is from 10th December to the beginning of Feb..Just goes to show how diverse our countries are isn't it?
I found a unown last night - hoping it to be shiny, but meh no luck!
On the topic of school, I go back on the 30th. Probably won't effect my clicking but so much because of my awesome schedule . Really it depends on the hw load though.
I haven't seen an unown in a while. When I refresh too quickly I'm always afraid I missed one but it's usually just a wailmer.
UNOWN Q - released at 10.08 server time, incase any knights are after a Q..
My Tues-Fri are pretty relaxed for me class wise (Especially since I have Fridays off =D), but Mondays juts suck =/ Oh well, what can you do about that Freshman year xD
O.o Is it just me, or does it seem like I'm in the younger crowd here in the Knights? It'll be my senior year in high school for me this year...
Oh well, at least with the school I go to I get Fridays off. Four day school week FTW.
Besides, I'm excited to see all my friends again. I go to a charter school, so people there come from all over the place - not many live too close nearby.
Anywho, I figure once this batch of eggs hatches I'll finally get around to something I've been meaning to do for a while: get a bunch of badges done! I've had the Pokes leveled for quite a while; I just haven't really been able to get them all in my party because of the exchange.
Oh yes, one other thing...
One sign of Doc's Pokemon addiction: Massclicking on a Pokemon adoptable site and watching a Pokemon Crystal Let's Play at the same time.
I know where my GPX luck is going. It's not shinies, it's certainly not finding items, I seem to be having very bad luck there. But my luck goes to finding Unown, and especially finding new ones. Yesterday I caught my 16th Unown, and I have had only one duplicate so far. rather remarkable, by now I would expect half of the eggs I find to be an Unown I already have. But well, I'm not complaining!
Congrats on the new shinies. Also, 702 eggs since my last shiny... =(
@Ock: No, I'm "old" me too! =) I'm 20 years old... xD
42 ? That's all?
Woah all these ages make my 16 year old self seem really young!
Sorry for double post.
The forums are not working very well on my computer. It keeps re-directing me whenever I click something...
I'm actually a 67 year old Portuguese lady that visits the site whenever my fishing business doesn't have much work
...erm, yeah.
Anyway, congrats on the shineis SG, BlackMamba and monster on the Unown. I hope you find your shiny Horsea soon, kingofjazz - that's a long hunt
I've gotten up to around 220 Mudkip fails - I herd that i used to liek these guys, but at the moment they're getting quite annoying.
now I suddenly feel young (I am 24) XDDD
new member here, make your way, PEASANTS
I'm the youngest of the group at 14
@rofl: I just finished my hunt for mudkip at 11 eggs. Was hoping for 30 or more for "so i herd" but 11 works too.
Wow that was very surprising kingofjazz...congrats on the shiny!
My shiny luck has been very great lately since my last shiny (before my Skuntank) was almost a year ago.
SagaDavid, you're the same age as my mother. haha. She started young though. I'm 22. I find that really cool that older people enjoy pokemon just as much as the younger generation.
Congratulations King on your Shiny Golden Caterpie. It looks super-shiny!
AAAAAH, more shinies in the group! When will it ever stop?
Aaaaaaah that's beautiful Caterpie... congrats to kingofjazz. I should continue my hunt for it as well.. all shiny butterflies needed
Wow, all this talk of age... sheesh i feel old and young at the same time. 22 years young here.
Congrats no that caterpie... That will be a hunt for me in a while, only because I got the random weedle and I think it deserves a matching pair. As for me, I'm still a-hunting my turtwigs, now in full force
http://gpxpl.us/neJjq
Haha no way! The big guy you see above just caught pokerus from a pokerused shinx I clicked. Funny, I wasn't planning on taking him away from my party, but GPX just forced me to keep him here, LOL.
<-- is 22
Grats KOJ on the shiny caterpie. I've been semi-hunting that. I really just want to complete my zizagoon hunt. Second longest hunt so far with 544 hatched. It's getting close to my shinx hunt [567, I think].
First of all, congrats on all the shinies, peeps~ x3
Second of all, I'm 20. And not in college atm >___>..I'm taking a self-evaluation break...and I was very irresponsible the first time I went....
I'm actually planning on going back to college next Spring. Art major (specializing in computer graphics) me thinks :>*needs to start working on her portfolio* >___>

Shiny hunting news. Nothing to report really. 196 eevees since my last shiny eevee, but that's not too bad at all. Otherwise, none of my others are /that/ close to the 200s. Maybe I would actually finish my hunts if I didn't get distracted by rarer rare eggs..like lunatones and beldums and solrocks, etc xDDD.I also grab all starters I odn't have shinies of except bulbasaurs (since their commonish due to clones). I've been rather lucky in that my hunts haven't ever even hit 300 yet. *knocks on wood*
Just randomly went to the lab at 10:21 server time when I knew there would be some new eggs.
Firs thing I see is 'pink' and 'part of a pair'. So I impulse click on got a Latias steal!
Maybe shiny? (In my dreams!)
Still need a Latios though. 4 out of 4 Latis that I have got have been the female...
@Akina: Latios was actually my very first legend. Stolen in the lab of course. But my first nonetheless. Since, then, every time I've summoned a Lati@s it's been Latias. It's my curse, I swear >____<
Edit: on a side note, I keep get 403 restricted area pop ups...mostly when I'm going to my own profile page. wtflol
@Tequila: I had the complete opposite. I summoned 3 Latios and no Latias, but on the 4th soul dew I finally got Latias xD
Anyway I started a shiny hunt for charmander not too long ago, wish me luck~
I'm 17 :P
Anyway, nice job on the shinies, and I'm still in shock that yesterday I managed to grab an unown L from the shelter that someone dropped for me 2 more to go!
@koj: JEALOUSY.
Shiny female Caterpie is one of my side hunts at the moment... because I have Butterfree down as Mary Jane in my list. I will find one of my own eventually... after I finally finish up the Six.
Congrats anyway!
This octopus here is 17 too.
Believe me, I am excited to go back to school... just not so much for calculus. *headdesk*
Another day, more eggs, more fails... one of these times it's gotta be a shiny, right?
oh and evidently i broke 800k while on vacation O.o
I'm sixteen.
Many congrats on all the wonderful shinies. I'm jealous. I wasn't able to click or hatch any eggs for my shiny hunts over the weekend, because over the past few days I had the /very/ rare opportunity to spend time with my dad.
I'm 20, so I guess I consider myself one of the young'uns!
And shiny Caterpie's one of my faves! Congrats on getting one!
