I noticed that nobody had posted in here yet, so I thought I might do so.
I also noticed that only green shinies can be posted here. I only have one, this lucky shelter-grabbed Druddigon. It's called Losing My... as a reference to the REM song.

Y'all are gonna lose the SWSH, just sayin'.
In seriousness, though, as an Azurite Knight I'd like to extend a welcome to this new group, and I hope it grows like the other two have.
Haha this is the month where the Malachites come back from the dead and win the SWSH! But thank you for the welcome, Cycloneblaze. I'd also like to thank Shaoo, Hiraelle and Gryphaena, leaders of the Azurite Knights, Wulfenite Warriors and Networking Ninjas respectively for their warm welcomes and words of encouragement We are affiliates with these three groups, be sure to check them out!
I noticed that one of the old Malachite Mages groups had a link to a list of green shinies. The link was broken though, so I might recreate that list at some point so Malachite members have something to go by if they want to hunt some green shinies.
Morning all! Good to see the club up and running again! Not sure how active I'll be for these hunts, I'm part of the way through my Masters degree XD I will try my best, however!
I'll be doing Buizel first. Then Litleo if I finish on time (I already got a sh. Cubone so I don't need to hunt it)
Going for Litleo, Buizel will be next if I find time to hunt something else ^.^
We have the early lead in the SWSH! I've just updated the first post with the current affinity standings and the best Malachite shiny hatchers thus far. I'll update the stats there once or twice a day so everyone can see how we're fairing in the SWSH Good luck everyone!!
It's nice to see Mages member xhig has already hatched a shiny Cubone for the hunt! Congrats!
Yoo! Y'all are KILLING the SWSH. Haven't found my green little orphan yet, though. Best of luck to everyone else who is lagging behind a bit!
Don't get cocky, there is plenty of time for the others to turn the tide :P is there an easy link to the overall SWSH page? The one in the shine recorder gives me a 404
Awesome! Thanks Eevee64 ^.^ makes getting to the page much easier XD
@,@ Mala friends
I thought I was alone ._.
@YunikoYokai No worries I had to go to the stats page and look at the contests and events on there to find some of the old SWSH pages :P
Welcome to our newest member, InsaneMoments!
Edit: Also welcome to Tydeth!
Edit 2: Just hatched my first SWSH shiny! On to Buizel now
http://r.gpx.plus/ilyIV
Firstly, hi everyone!
Just hatched my first SWSH shiny:
http://r.gpx.plus/FlDIV
Going after Buizel now, hoping it doesn't take another >300 hunt.
Good luck for the rest of the month, everyone!
Species: Litleo
Eggs Hatched: 379
Going to be one of those hunts e.o
Welcome to two new members, Spyessa and iuppiter! Good luck on you SWSH adventures!
Thank you ! I only got one Buizel for now :/
Hey guys~ Nice to meet y'all!
I'm hunting buizel for now, probably cubone next if I get a shiny buizel with a decent amount of time left. I'm at 33 eggs only, mainly because I'm struggling to hold all of these pokémon I can't release yet. lol
Welcome to the newest Mages member, Much Lawlz!
It looks like the Wulfenites are starting to pull away from us a bit Though there is still plenty of time to hatch some shinies and turn this SWSH back in our favour
Nearly 500 eggs and buizel still isn't hatching shiny XD I might run out of time before I can hatch a cubone too at this rate!
Edit: Woo! Got the shiny Buizel! After 530 eggs XD Now onto Cubone!
http://r.gpx.plus/dZEQV
Edit: ...ok. 11 Eggs and that hunt is over XD I'm going to go back to Litleo, see if I can grab a male shiny to go with my female one
http://r.gpx.plus/ZgjLV
I've been pretty busy this week, so I've only managed to hatch 180 eggs towards my Buizel hunt ^^" I'll have a bit more time this week, so hopefully I can at least get Buizel and move on to Cubone before the end of the month!
Speaking of shiny cubone, another one for MM's collection: http://gpx.plus/info/AYGHV
I'll probably go for the cat next.
400+ eggs and no sign of a shiny buizel ... dang. I'll get it someday. :T Hopefully before the end of the month.
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving! :j
Welcome to our newest Mage, AuraMasterNeal!
And Happy Thanksgiving too! We don't celebrate it in Australia, but I hope everyone else had an enjoyable day :]
I've been working on my buizel hunt... and I've released more pokemon this month than I released in all the other months I've been on GPX+ ever. Yeah, I try to keep releasing to a minimum. And thanks for the welcome to a long-time member of this site!
EDIT: Also, if any members of the group have the fractured soul dew trinket, I want it. I made it, so I have always wanted a copy of it. It's sad that it got assigned to the two lesser other affinities.
This Pokémon was egg #1356 in InsaneMoments 's 15-day site-wide shiny hunt started on November 13th, 2015.
Finally
Took so long. DX
http://gpx.plus/info/CktdV
Got the shiny Litleo, shiny #3 for the SWSH.
Now I'll try for that otter, Buizel.
http://r.gpx.plus/irVZV
Aww ye! I finally got it! 503 eggs later! My first successful shiny hunt.
The SWSH is over! Congrats to everyone who hatched a shiny The Wulfenites proved too strong this month, taking out first place, but we finished second which is a good effort
Further congratulations to the Mages members who hatched the most shinies! YunikoYokai, InsaneMoments, Tydeth and Much Lawlz all hatched 3 shinies each. Well done! As a prize, I'll send you a Sky Gift each. If you give me a temporary palpad add, I'll can send one your way!
I'd like to thank everyone again for joining the Malachite Mages Reborn, and hopefully we will grow in the future and pull off the next SWSH win!
Edit: Welcome to the group, D E A N!
So, it took uh 1,356 to get that last litleo. I almost killed the poor thing when it hatched. As for a group hunt. I would but every spot i have is full atm so @.@
I was thinking for a potential group shiny hunt this month, that it could be for a fire type, considering a number of us would be hatching a bunch of fires for the dreidel event. You don't have to have it in your shine recorder, just if you hatch any shiny fire type, post it here, and who ever hatches the most wins! Is anyone interested in this? I'd like to start the hunt in the next couple of days if anyone wants to participate
Hello,
How do I go about joining this group?
Would it be ok if I made some "Malachite Mages" banner type things kind of like on the main post, and post them here ? If not I understand just figured I'd ask ^^
Ok cool, I'll post them within the next couple days, when I find some time.
As far as the shiny hunt goes, I suppose I'll attempt a charmander hunt . No guarantees I'll be able to complete it, but eh I'll try xD
Edit:
Made one. Probably not the best, I'm a little rusty but eh.
Thanks for the banners, they look great! I've added them to the main post
The group shiny hunt has also begun!
Woohoo! I cant believe I actually got it
I thought for sure it would take me a ton more.
It wasnt registered in my shine recorder so I dont know how many charmanders I hatched before it but oh well.
http://gpx.plus/info/XrUzV
Hmm. Which fire poke to do next. Decisions decisions.
Guess I'll hunt Cyndaquil. Next fire starter down the line.
Welcome to the newest Mage, Kaitou Kid!
Congrats on the shiny, Lumpy Oatmeal! I'm still working on Tepig...no luck so far.
http://r.gpx.plus/JKJtV
So i hatched this green guy yesterday. only to find out ive already hatched 4 lawl,
Grats on the shiny! I can also give good shiny news too XD I got a shiny numel! So I'm happy. Only 16 eggs as well. That's the whole Numel family got! And I only need 1 more flame shard to get the plate!
I'm also only 2 shinies away from completing my Bug Bonanza!...aside from Megas XD I don't have the stones for Pinsir, Heracross or Scizor yet but I'm hunting them now anyway for the future. I'm so excited!
Thanks for the welcome eevee64, sorry for late thanks as I didn't see the post till just now. Congrats InsaneMoments and YunikoYokai on your shinies. Also for the GWSH I just hatched a fire type shiny, Numel, was a recorded race against another user that I won and it took 249 eggs. Hope it's okay to post it since I wasn't in the group before it started, also I double checked and it didn't say under the info spoiler if I had to say first I wanted to participate first before posting it nor if it had to be a pure fire type, so again sorry if I shouldn't of posted this.
http://r.gpx.plus/qrntV
Also eevee64, I have a Mystical egg shell piece that your looking for, as stated in your trinkets spoiler in your signature, if you want it you can have it as I don't really care for trinkets right now.
Congrats on the shiny numel, Kaitou Kid! As long as it's part fire type and you hatched it after the start of the GWSH, it's all good! Doesn't matter if you've only just joined the group. There wasn't any GWSH sign up either, it's just post your fire shiny here if you hatch one, so you're not doing anything wrong
Thank you! I'd love the Mystical Egg Shell Piece if you're willing to give it to me! I've added you to my pal pad so you can gift it. I can give you a Sky Gift as a thank you
That's good, and thanks that would be appreciated, I sent the trinket hope it got to you okay.
Edit: thanks for the 3 ropes, flame orb, honey, and chocolate heart
I got it! Thank you so much! I sent a Sky Gift your way
OOOH Numel! Thats a good shiny, I should have hunted that instead of cyndaquil xD
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you're all enjoying your holidays
http://r.gpx.plus/iWMlv
So, I found out a longtime friend of mine plays gpx and she is Mala. @.@ The amount of happy I am is insane!
This is a little late, but Merry Christmas, everyone! Haven't been around much because I've been spending time with family, heh.
I hope y'all enjoyed the festivities, be it a hot sunny Christmas or a white snowy one :j
First to any that celebrate it happy vary late holidays. For the GWSH just hatched another fire type shiny, a Charmander, was also another recorded race against another user that took 160 eggs. The other user is at 105 eggs and no shny so don't know who will win yet. Unrelated, but also cant wait for the new year exchange, plan to send a Sh. Typhlosion, hope to get a fire shiny I don't have yet since it's my favorite type.
http://r.gpx.plus/LUiPV
@InsaneMoments, Congrats that sounds like it was a wonderful surprise.
Congrats on the shiny Charizard, Kaitou Kid! I like his name So far you're leading the GWSH with 2 shinies I'm still trying to find a shiny Tepig, but I haven't been able to find many in the Shelter. I think I might change and hunt Torchic or Slugma instead in a last ditch effort to get a shiny.
Also, welcome to the group, watchingmidnight!
Hi all! Glad to seem some fellow active Mala's.
I can contribute to the GWSH! I hatched this shiny Numel (Go shiny Numels!) on Dec. 15th.
http://r.gpx.plus/ktwUV
Although at this point, I doubt I'll get in any more shinies.
Welcome to the group watchingmidnight, and congrats on the sh. Numel. Guess who got another fire shiny for the GWSH? This person ^-^! It's a Fennekin, cant wait to use a snowball on her, also yet again was also another recorded race against another user that took 482 eggs, and the other user is at 21 eggs and hasn't been on since the 10th so in a week I will probably auto-win. I don't know why, but races seem to go faster then hunts. Now to try for Litwick and Torkoal since I seem to be on "fire" this month....get it? Yes, I know, was lame joke. ^^' lol
http://r.gpx.plus/zUbcV
Wow, you are on fire!! haha I don't think you can be beaten in the GWSH now, unless someone else has some super luck :P
Happy New Year, everyone!
The GWSH is over! Thank you to everyone that participated!
In first place we have Kaitou Kid, who hatched 3 shinies, and equal second place is Lumpy Oatmeal and watchingmidnight, who both hatched 1 shiny. Congrats! If you three wanted to give me a temporary pal pad add, I can gift you your Sky Gift prizes! I'll give 2 to first place, and 1 each to the second place getters I'll let you know once I send them to you, then you're more than welcome to un-pal me
Happy New Year!
Also added to pal pad eevee64~
I wish I knew about the GWSH...I would've participated! (I actually hatched my Shiny Audino and Shiny Gastly in the time period that the GWSH took place!)
I'm actually not happy that I got that Audino. The hunt took 973 eggs, and I wanted to tackle the >1000 egg hunt achievement. Guess I just have to keep waiting...
Happy new year y'all!
I added you to my Palpad, eevee64~
I also got my first non-exchange shiny of the year already, so that's exciting~ Not green though ;(
I've just sent out the Sky Gifts to all the winners! Congrats again, and thank you for participating
It's been a few weeks since I hatched my last shiny...I have 5 hunts going at the moment that are over 400 eggs, so hopefully I'll be able to finish one of them soon!
Happy late New years, got my Sky Gifts, thanks ^-^. Also hope your bad shiny luck ends soon eevee64, and congrats watchingmidnight and Lumpy Oatmeal.
The Malachite Mages are now affiliates with http://forums.gpx.plus/index.php?showtopic=73481! If you like making Sky Gifts, come and check it out
eevee64, dang 5 hunts over 400 eggs at least?
You need some of my luck. (Just hatched ANOTHER shiny. Both of my last hunts were under 100 eggs. Probably means I'm in for bad luck during the SWSH though, bleck).
Welcome to our newest member, DarkMoonKnight!
Hopefully my current bad shiny luck won't carry over to the SWSH! I want to hatch more than I did for the last SWSH...which was 1 :P
man, I wish I could give you some of the luck I've had with the SWSH. I've had two different hunts where I've hatched two shinnies in the same grouping.
Nah, nothing SWSH related has been announced yet. I guess the voting will probably open up in a day or two. I'll have to think of what I want to vote for...
I've been getting shinies left and right and at the point that I'm not even sure what i want to vote for. I suppose I only need two more pixie shards so I'll be hoping for at least one fairy-type.
For me, I only get SWSH eggs at two times: either right at the beginning or right at the end. I'm expecting for the upcoming one, that I'll get the shiny I need on the last day or two of the SWSH.
I've finally ended my shinyless streak! I hatched a Shiny Buziel, which was leftover from the November SWSH ^^" 543 eggs it took.
I think my SWSH luck is similar to yours, watchingmidnight...I hatch shinies in the first couple of days, or the last couple, or two months after the hunt finishes haha.
Hope this honey+ lasts throughout the hunt lol.
For the last few SWSHs the site seems to go crazy over Honey+ :P Hopefully this hunt will be no different.
There still isn't any voting for the SWSH...maybe this hunt is going to have pre-decided Pokemon? I'm curious now
looks like they went with a theme for this SWSH. the choices being Staryu, Cleffa, and Lunatone. I got a shiny Lunaatone for the New Year's Exchange so I think I'm gonna hunt Staryu.
I can usually see the theme in the Admin-choose SWSH choices, but I'm really failing at seeing the theme for this one? I mean, I guessss Staryu and Lunatone I can kind of see star/moon. But Cleffa?
However, my first (and hopefully not only) hunt will be for Cleffa to get another Pixie Shard.
Cleffa's line is said to have come from space and worships the moon, so it fits in a way.
I like these themed SWSHs! I'm going to start off with Staryu, then Lunatone. I already have a Shiny Clefable, so if I finish the other two, then I'll go for it again for my long term living shiny dex goal :P I've also just added the link to the SWSH page to the top of the group's main post
A quick question, (I'll add this to the group joining form later), but if anyone has another name they wish to be called in the forums i.e. a shortened version of your username, let me know or post here You guys are welcome to call me Eevee not that dropping the 64 makes much difference haha
I made this out of boredom if anyone wants to use it lol
ALSO. did anyone see a special looking munchlax sprite while clicking? I swear I saw a winter themed munchlax while clicking but maybe im hallucinating.
Thank you, Lumpy Oatmeal! I also made a SWSH banner last night, so I'll add them both to the main post once I get home from work
There is a new Munchlax novelty called Snowman Munchlax It was given out as a part of the monthly egg distributions.
Omg I need to get one, time to stalk the shelter. I collect munchlax items in real life ;-;
already got shiny Staryu..... took bout 5 hours and two eggs. that's one of the quickest times I've gotten the shiny for the SWSH. decided to move on to look for a shiny Cleffa.
Wow, DarkMoonKnight, that was seriously quick! Congrats
I've added the SWSH banners that Lumpy Oatmeal and myself have made to the main post. I made a separate spoiler for just the SWSH banners
Shiny Lunatone down! Hopefully I can get the other two done as well, unlike last time.
Good luck, everyone!
http://r.gpx.plus/kStMV
First SWSH shiny down! Now hopefully I'll be able to get at least another shiny to improve on my last SWSH :P
Edit:
I just hatched Lunatone too!
http://r.gpx.plus/QMjMV
The crazy Flabebe hunt was the last SWSH I actually hatched more than one shiny in ^^" Guess it's Cleffa time now!
Wow Eevee, you got lucky xD
Still trying for staryu, 195 eggs and counting haha
**EDIT**
Finally got him, Huzzah!
#207 xD
http://r.gpx.plus/PRLMV
Hmm. Cleffa or Lunatone now. The decisions.
Ouch, im in 3rd place for slowest shiny hunt lol.
http://gpx.plus/info/KoJMV
Got shiny Cleffa. Now for one of the others.
http://r.gpx.plus/UlmMV
Hello there, little shiny! :j Back to hunting buizel I go! (Yes, it hasn't shown up yet ...)
So many of you guys hatched shinies over the past day! Well done Malachites are slowly making ground on the Wulfenites, hopefully we can keep it going that way! Still a long way to go...
http://r.gpx.plus/MFUBV
Got my first SWSH shiny! Starting a Staryu hunt now~~
Got cleffa! Only took 241 eggs.
http://r.gpx.plus/MXrBV
Staryu and cleffa down. Mr Moon here I come.
Welcome to two new members, Forceman and Rookie Roo!
In the members list on the main post, if you hover your mouse over a user's name, a little box will come up with the person's nickname, for those who have specified nicknames
Thanks for having me! Right now I'm breeding Lunatone for the SWSH, but if you guys notice a shortage of another species I'll be happy to get some eggs going.
Was hatching stuff for the pokéHunt and got this kid! :j
http://r.gpx.plus/iblBV
It's my first time getting a random non-hunted shiny, lol. Debating if I want another cleffa, hmm.
We have another new member, Pokebub! Welcome That now makes 20 members! I'm happy to see the group slowly growing
@iuppiter Congrats on the shiny Sewaddle! Cleffas are easy to hatch, especially with the SWSH multipliers...shouldn't be too hard to get another shiny if you wanted to do another hunt :P I filled up all my PC on Sunday with a heap of fail Cleffas I couldn't release...not fun xD
Oh geez, I know the feeling of box clutter. I recently repurposed my empty boxes, but only left myself with four free ones.
Thanks for the welcome!
I'm currently looking for a Shiny Staryu. I previously hatched a Shiny Lunatone for the SWSH after 153 eggs, lasting four days. Currently, I've hatched about 9 Staryu eggs.
Here's the Shiny Lunatone:
http://r.gpx.plus/KJTeV
Oh geez, that's a lot to let go!
By the way, I noticed that in the image below that Site-Wide Shiny Hunt is acronymized as SWHS rather than SWSH
There's a 3.2 multiplier for the day atm.
There are also 10 more days for the SWSH.
Malachites are only about 13 entries behind the currently leading affinity, Wulfenite. I think we have a fairly good chance of rising.
Well then, I'll just have to blaze through my exploration and get back in it!
http://r.gpx.plus/GZrrV
Second Shiny~
I guess on to lunatone.
I'm hoping this one actually goes fast so that I can do a second cleffa hunt and get another pixie shard to complete the plate!
Uhhh. Hi.
So I usually don't post in threads because I'm too shy for my own good. (Yikes)
Anyway, I already hatched a Shiny Staryu (YAY) and I'm hunting for Cleffa right now...
I hatched 200 Cleffa eggs just today and no shiny. I have no more space for Cleffas today so... I really should have bought 4 more PC boxes when they were available. DANG IT.
Annnnddd... We are 1 shiny less than Wulfenites, so... GO TEAM, GO!
Also, what is the shiny ratio for everyone here? I have the slight impression that I just have really bad luck hunting shinies in general.
Mine is 1 shiny per 422 eggs hatched.
I'm at 1 shiny per 157 eggs hatched right now. From what I've seen other people say, I'd be considered on the lucky side, while you have hatched fewer than normal. Good luck in your future hunts!
I'm at 1 shiny per 216 eggs hatched. although that average is getting eaten some by this neverending hunt for a shiny Cleffa.
tfw the pass counter is almost filled, but there's only 3 minutes remaining.
Also, Malachites are now 9 entries less than Wulfenite.
My current shiny ratio is 1 per 278 eggs, which isn't too bad.
Congrats to everyone who is hatching shinies! So far we've hatched 31 shinies as a group
I also just hatched my third SWSH shiny That's one of each now...back to Staryu!
http://r.gpx.plus/kZzTV
I'm actually happy I've finished Cleffa (for now) because I was starting to get really tired of my PC filling up xD
Got to say our group is doing great. Also sorry not been replying much been somewhat busy, tho still manage 9 shinies in 1228 eggs pretty proud of that, more proud of this tho is you get the reference: (4 more and will have the whole set minus mini which I want to breed from 2 of them)
Yahooo.
Finally got that elusive Shiny Cleffa, after 630 eggs hatched.
Also, I've finally got all 5 shards for the plate.
I really was giving up on it.
I think I'll go for Lunatone now. Even though it's going to drive me crazy if I don't get it before the SWSH ends. I desperately need to finish more hunts (glares at Litleo and Flabebe).
http://r.gpx.plus/VBSbV
Here's my fourth shiny of the hunt, and second Cleffa! I've been naming my Cleffas after David Bowie things, my first one is Ziggy Stardust, but likely to change if I hatch a male shiny. My Lunatone and Staryu were named after the Spanish words for moon and star, respectively. Very creative, I know =P

http://r.gpx.plus/RdWCV
I thought I was doing well having just hatched my third shiny, Lunatone, but everybody else seems to be doing really well.
Three is the max I've hatched during a SWSH, so we'll see if I'm lucky and can get a fourth before it ends!
http://r.gpx.plus/BznCV
Well, it seems to be my lucky day!
Anyone else been grabbing Igglybuff eggs while hunting Cleffa? Or am I the only one making that mistake.
All the time, man. It's really annoying at first, but you'll learn to differentiate eventually. Igglybuff's egg is lighter and the curl is fatter.
I'm loving the nicknames some of you guys are using for your shinies xD I hope you can complete your Sailor Moon set, Kaitou Kid!
Glad to see everyone is hatching so many shinies! A few of you are right near the top of the most shinies hatched list for the whole site!
My personal best for shinies hatched in a SWSH is 4, so hopefully I'll be able to get at least one more to equal that ^^"
Yeah, I'm really happy that I was able to boost us a bit yesterday! I'm really surprised that I was able to get the "Lucky Day" achievement, but I was 5 eggs short of Creationist DX
finally managed to get the shiny Cleffa. now to ponder what water-type shiny to hunt so I can finish the Splash Plate.
Kyogre Mudkip!
I would also recommend to hunt for Suicune Poliwag. Or maybe Horsea...
Or any other pokemon that has been hunted already at other SWSH. Teehee
http://r.gpx.plus/oTKiV
Managed to up my max SWSH shiny count to 4!
I'm trying to finish up another moon alien space fairy but I haven't managed to snag a single one of five from my breeding pair. Heck, one user got two of them!
Decided to go after Mudkip cause I realized I was missing a shiny Mega Swampert in my collection. And you know as beautiful as it looks you got to have the shiny version to go with it.
Oh wow.
I finished my Lunatone hunt.
I was totally not expecting that.
I mean, Lunatone at 151 eggs is so fast for me, if I check the other hunts: (365 for Staryu, 630 for Cleffa).
I am so EXCITED! I mean, I got the 3 shinies of the SWSH and that's a first for me, if I recall correctly.
I still want to have 2 more Cleffas and 1 more Staryu so I can complete their Living Shiny Dex, but I think that I'll hunt them other time.
Right now I'll continue with other hunts that I already had, just to clear some space.
I'm also proud to say that I managed to get all the sprites for them (well, without the 4 extra sprites that Clefairy and Clefable have, but I'll get them). I'm just waiting to evolve them in a day. Hopefully getting Darwinist in the process (3 boxes full of Pokemon that can evolve 2 times. Which means, 72 pokemon that evolves 2 times each, then I would get 144 at the end, so I think I can do it... I fmy math isn't horrible wrong).
Overall a pretty satisfactory hunt for me.
EDIT:
Good luck to everyone that are still hunting for another shiny out there! And congratulations to everyone that got a shiny.
EDIT2:
Also. Tomorrow I'm planning on releasing some Pokemon, so if anyone want to have 1, just Pm me and we can see if our schedules can meet so you can have it.
All of them are level 100, so you might be interested:
Grats on all the shinies! Spread some luck over to me? 660 Lunatons later and still nothing and this is my only hunt for this month! XD Shinies just hate me this year, it seems!
Edit - Ok, 720 now, my longest SWSH to date...bleh
http://r.gpx.plus/QjvJV
Sixth shiny of the SWSH, and Pixie Shard #2! I'm going to keep going with Cleffa for Hatching Insanity, hopefully I'll get a male one next time so I can use "Major Tom."
...Ok, so i can finish my Alpine Meowth hunt but not my Lunatone? XD Oh, what a weird a night...Going to try for another 70 odd eggs. If I don't get a Lunatone by 800, I'll be quitting. It's already 11pm XD
Good luck with your hunt! I feel you as well, I hatched some Geodude eggs here and there while hunting for Cleffa and I got a shiny of the former. I say don't quit, though! Whenever you're feeling down during a shiny hunt, just remember that there was a user who persevered through 3,000 eggs to hatch a shiny.
Thanks, the only issue is I have my hunt to end with the SWSH (I assumed I would have it completed by now since I usually go for all 3) and it's closing in on midnight where I am...my sleepiness may dictate when I quit more than anything else XD The SWSH will be over by the time I get up
Edit - Although I've just found out you can change it...huh, never knew that.
Edit 2 - Yep, 01:30am, 754 eggs and I'm knackered. No prize for me
Aww I'm so sorry! I kinda feel bad for posting this because of your fruitless attempt but...
http://r.gpx.plus/XVKJV
This is my second day this SWSH with two Shiny Moon Alien Fairies in a day! I'd have the Pixie Plate done by now if i wasn't for the 1/day limit.
I'm just wondering, where did you got all that luck? Or where do you hide those shiny eggs because DAMN. That's really quick.
I try to have a shiny for a day and then I stop hunting because I'm afraid I could hatch a shiny and not getting the shard...
Fortunately, I already have 2 plates: Psychic and Fairy so hopefully , I'll begin hunting for more shinies that are pure type. That way, I wouldn't be scared to miss a shard. Teehee.
Yuniko, I'm so sorry for your fruitless atempt. I seriously hope that at least you can finish that hunt in this month.
Also, I was planning on staying away from Cleffas but... NOPE. With the coins system back, I'll be hunting for those 2 pesky shinies.
Last but not least, in this month I'll finally be able to complete that achievement where you need to do every exploration at least once. And in the way of doing that, I'll get another Diancie. For its Mega form.
What explorations will all of you do?
Antone else thinks that the new achievements will be released this month? I seriously have that suspicion... I hope one of the achievements will be to hatxh 2 shinies in a same batch of eggs.
I don't know if it'll be possible to have a script that records when that happens (or happened) but if they add something like that in the future, I'm really proud to say that I hatched 2 shiny Furfrous in a batch... In a SWSH.
I really doubt one could put a script for that achievement, but it'll be crazy if people actually unlocked that.
Thanks, I still got some Prize Points (20 I think) so I didn't have to spend much to get the voucher. Still would've liked to get that damn moon rock XD Ah well, 760 and still ongoing! My bug hunt will just have to wait until I get this finished up.
Welcome to the new month!! On the 18th it'll be my first GPX anniversary. I think I've gotten really far for one year.
I was planning on starting a Shellos [East] hunt now that SWSH is done, but then the anniversary means I won't be starting that. So I was like "Hey, Shellos [West] has pink and white for it's sprite colors so it must be either of those in the pokedex." Turns out Shellos [West] is purple. Sooo, for now I'm hatching some Goldeen and some Rotom.
In terms of this month's explorations, I'll be doing Zekrom/Reshiram exploration (after which I only need one more to have done every exploration once). Not sure about the second one - perhaps the bird trio.
Edit: Also, since we're talking about releasing pokemon. I've got a little over two boxes of the novelty oddish, almost all at lvl 100 and full happiness. Once I get them all to lvl 100, I'll be releasing them, so if you're interested, I can coordinate the release timing.
Righto! That's the end of January's cosmic SWSH! Congrats to everyone who hatched shinies, and I hope you're all enjoying your Lunar Larvitars Wulfenites won again, sigh, though we were only 14 shinies behind them in second place. We hatched 49 shinies as a group, which I think is a great effort! On to our winners~
Taking out first place is Spyessa with a huge 13 shinies, which is also the highest number of shinies hatched this SWSH over the whole site! Congrats! In second place is Kaitou Kid with 9 shinies, and in third, Forceman with 7. Well done to each one of you!
I'll award 3 Sky Gifts to first place, 2 to second, and 1 to third. Feel free to give me temporary add to your palpads so I can gift the Sky Gifts to you
To change things up a bit, as another option you can swap one of your Sky Gifts for a novelty drop, so first place could get 2 Sky Gifts and a novelty, second 1 Sky Gift and a novelty, and third either a Sky Gift or a novelty. Let me know if you want the novelty option, otherwise I'll just give you Sky Gifts
Later this week I'll start up a GWSH to go with the site's 7th anniversary coin event. So it'll basically be hatch any red, pink or white Pokemon's shiny, but I'll post more about that later.
And lastly, thank you all for participating in the group! We've nearly doubled in size since the November SWSH when I started the group I hope everyone continues to enjoy their stay here, and may the shiny luck be with you!
Edit: Oh, and a minor note, I've changed the group's name from 'Malachite Mages, Reborn' to just 'The Malachite Mages'. I don't think it makes too much of a difference to anything :P
For the GWSH, will we need to have active shiny hunts in our shiny recorder?
No luck getting Shiny Mr. Moon. But I did get cleffa and staryu so oh wells.
Totally mad the prize was larvitar and not snowman munchlax
Thanks eevee.
And yeah, please. I really need a Snowman in my life right now.
Also, mind if I do a test of my own?
http://gpx.plus/info/cAboI
Also, the GWSH hasn't started yet, right?
If it hasn't, then yikes. I just hatched a shiny Cleffa (and it's male!).
Apparently, it's one of my faster hunts: 54 egg on my 3rd day of hunting it.
And I don't know if I should be really excited right now that I just have to find another shiny Cleffa and I would have all the Living Shiny Dex entry for that Pokemon, or I should feel bad because I wouldn't have any excuse to hunt for'em and get coins faster...
And now that I mentioned that, how is everyone going with coins? And with life?
I just got back to school today and... I really don't know why I'm still here in the site when its WAAY past my sleep hours (that is if I truly intend to pay attention to my classes... ).
I have 105 coins so far and I'm #17 on the site for coins gathered, that's exciting for me.
I'm probably on gpx more than I should be, but I tend to egg click while reading papers, and I have a lot of papers to read right now.
@Rookie Roo, nah the GWSH hasn't started yet I'll post information about it in the second half of this post.
I have 43 coins at the moment. I started shiny hunts for a few red/pink/white Pokemon I wanted to hunt, so I'm just focussing on them for the time being. I have two more days of work, then I have pretty much the rest of the month off before I move back up to uni again. So hopefully plenty of time for me to hatch some shinies, and maybe even do another Death of the World run
----
GWSH info!
- will start on Friday the 5th and end Monday the 29th at midnight, server time
- running with the same theme as the GPXplus anniversary event, the goal will be to hatch as many pink, red or white Pokemon's shinies as possible!
- this means that the dex colour entry of your Pokemon has to be pink, red or white NOT the shiny Pokemon has to look pink, red or white
- it is entirely optional whether you want to participate
- the Pokemon does not have to be recorded in your shine recorder, any random pink, red or white Pokemon's shiny you hatch within the time period is acceptable
- you must post the shiny here in the group, or a link to the shiny, if you are participating in the hunt and want me to add it to your tally
- there is no sign up for the hunt, just start posting your shinies!
- the user/s at the end of the hunt who've hatched the most shinies will receive a Sky Gift prize from me (number of Sky Gifts given, and second and third place prizes will be determined after the hunt, based on participation and number of shinies hatched)
If anything is unclear or if anyone has any questions about the GWSH, feel free to ask!
Just hatched a Sh. Igglybuff, wish it counted. DX Anyway, I'll be hunting down those theme-colored shinies. Good luck to everyone!
We have a new group member! Welcome to Shiny Dragonite
Hey, this is Daydream! I changed my username just a few minutes ago, haha. Might wanna reflect that in the member list.
Also, I was able to get a Shiny Cleffa the last day of SWSH! I've had a total of 5 Shiny Cleffa by now, I think. It's my lucky shiny. In fact, I just hatched one earlier today when I was hatching for coins. Too bad we couldn't take the lead at all. ;_;
I'm excited for the GWSH, though. I'm feeling pretty optimistic about it. Good luck to everyone!
Hi everyone!
I may not post very often due to chronic shyness but I'm going to try!
I have hunts for Magikarp, Charmander, Porygon and Cleffa going right now for the coin event and the GWSH. I hope I get something before the end of the month. This is my first time doing more than one hunt at a time so we'll see how it goes - especially since I seem to have horrible shiny luck.
Anyway, nice to meet you all!
The GWSH has started!! Good luck to everyone! I almost forgot it was Friday today haha where has the week gone :P
I'm struggling to find the red/pink/white Pokemon I'm shiny hunting in the Shelter, so I'll probably end up just getting random ones :P I feel like making some new banners, so I'll do up a February themed Malachite Mages one this weekend
Seriously though, I feel like everybody's in the same boat of "I started a shiny hunt, but I can't find any, so let's go for random ones."
The worst is that I have an exploration task that asks for some of the shinies i'm hunting for and I can't even find their eggs in the shelter right now Dx
It's sad...even with Honey+ activated it still barely finds any eggs I'm shiny hunting I'm breeding Rufflet and Fletchling eggs at the moment, and the ones I don't claim from the Daycare are getting grabbed pretty quick as soon as they hit the Shelter.
--
Edit: Welcome to our newest member, Uzii!
http://r.gpx.plus/tfLyV
Got my first GWSH Shiny
I almost never breed anything other than for novelties, but I gave up for now and am breeding Rotom's.
Hello, and thank you for the welcome! I've never really used a forum before, so please bear with me and my lack of experience... feel free to just me haha!
I haven't really been paying much attention to the events going on here... hatching red, pink, and white Pokémon, is it? None of the ones I'm currently hunting for right now fit the bill, but I guess I'll just grab some random eggs when I can't find my eggs in the shelter. It looks like I'm not the only one having trouble finding eggs in the Shelter, even with Honey+.
Sweet, new members!
More people to talk to, yay!
I'm hunting for Cleffa, Flabebe White and Magikarp... But those 2 spaces were the only ones I had left. I'm also hunting for more Cherubis and Furfrous (which I have already 2 shinies, but I am too bad at the Battle system that I lose really badly and can't seem to get a single comb... *glares at Blue* Anyone has any advice?).
I hope everyone is doing ok.
I don't know if I already said it, but I am back to college and I'm DYING. Hopefully, I've been able to earn about 200 coins and I'm at #69, so I really don't want to know how many coins do the #1 has. I mean, just wow.
I also hope to get in my hands a beautiful shiny voucher. Teehee.
I'm silently rooting for everyone to get it as well.
Welcome new members Shiny Dragonite and Uzii. Congrats on the shiny watchingmidnight. For the Anniversary I started hunting Cleffa, Zangoose, and Fletchling. Other then that last one been finding them been pretty easy, but Zan has almost 200 users breeding them and Clef almost 100 so my biggest issue is shelter grabs, prematures, and too lazy to click to get more shelter grabs. I have 191 coins tho, so I think I'm doing pretty decent right now.
http://r.gpx.plus/iatFV
Off to a great start for the GWSH with this precious little baby!
My first shiny for the GWSH ^-^ http://r.gpx.plus/BQIFV
Also pretty sure I got the skygifts from eevee64 for the SWSH, wanted to say thanks ^-^ got 4 pokechest, 1 flame orb, 1 escape rope, and 2 honeys
Well I didn't expect... two shinies today.
http://r.gpx.plus/aPSFV http://r.gpx.plus/lKIBV
While this was a pleasant surprise, especially I've been planning on looking for a shiny Swirlix, I have to say I'm kinda miffed that I missed out on a Splash Shard. Really like that Water-type Arceus...
On a side note, Kwarkpudding, I've been collecting Bottle Caps for the Curio Collecter achievement. If you'd like, would you like me to gift them to you after I've reached 50?
Wow, so many GWSH shinies already! Congrats to everyone who's hatched one
No luck for me yet...ran out of Shelter grabs a little while ago, so I'm happy it's reset in 5 miniutes :P
I've been finding Charmanders in abundance, especially with the help of Honey+, but everything else has been harder to come by. I've been breeding my own Porygons too.
Also, I tend to miss the large amounts of people that get on while I'm asleep so even multiplier days are a bit slow for me.
http://r.gpx.plus/omiKV
These little guy showed up in my morning hatching!
Between my goldeen hunt at 17 eggs and castform hunt at 21 eggs, I'm on a roll it seems.
http://r.gpx.plus/kduKV
I've been hunting a female shiny Furfrou for a while now, just so happened to hatch it during the GWSH
Edit: I forgot to mention that I made a new Mages banner (the one that's in my signature). I put it in the Banners section in the main post, so anyone is welcome to use it I'm going to make some more similar ones at some stage, so if anyone wants one with a specific Pokemon on it, I can make one for you
Good job on the shinies, everyone! Unfortunately I'm hunting some Pokemon in low supply, Cleffa, Solrock, and Flabebe Orange. The last of those three is pretty hard on mobile, which I use a lot without Sweet Honey because the color in brackets isn't shown when adopting. Just gotta keep hatching. c=
The answer is, I am ~most definitely~ on a roll. I finished my Shiny Rotom hunt today. And because castform is a normal type, I still got my shard from my shiny Rotom!
http://r.gpx.plus/MEZKV
I might run out of shinies to hunt for if I keep going at this pace~
Thanks for the new banner Eevee! I'm an Oddish lover, so I'd totally be down for an Oddish or any of it's evolutions in a banner!
Congrats on the shinies guys! I'm a funny one and actually don't like using the Shine Recorder, and yet since I have a huge pile of shinies I want to look for eventually, I end up just grabbing random eggs of Pokémon I'm interested in. I can't keep track of my bearings like this
Eevee, I might take you up on that offer for a banner if you don't mind! I'll let you know what I'd like once I get some time to think about it
Also, I don't know if I should be asking this here or not, but could you mind adding to the Trinket trading list that I'm collecting Teru Teru Shuppets? Thank you!
Jeez, it's hard to keep up with you guys, congrats everyone!
http://r.gpx.plus/VJjSV
First shiny in 656 coins
Got my second shiny, was a hunt I been doing since the last GWSH with 537 eggs, and congrats to everyone else who been getting shines. Glad this GWSH seems more active then the last. Edit: Oh just got another Zangoose
http://r.gpx.plus/FjYSVhttp://r.gpx.plus/hanKV
I'm so happy to say that I finally got a shiny!
YAY
Even though I have a LONG way to go if I want to be in any place of the GWSH, I'm giving my best.
I wasn't actively hunting for Charmander, but oh whelp. I got the Flame Shard and with that Shard, I completed the plate... So right now I can hunt for Fairy type, Normal type and Fire type freely because I won't have any restrictions...
Furfrou, Cleffa, and any other Pokemon with those types... I'm coming for you.
http://gpx.plus/info/PFRSV#
Aaannd here's another shiny from me!
http://r.gpx.plus/ywWSV
Again, I can't say I'm 100% happy with this—I was definitely actively looking for this, but I had gotten a Shiny Inkay earlier today, so I missed out on my Insect Shard in lieu of a Dread Shard... I prefer Bug-type Arceus too. Why is this happening to me...
Keep up the awesome shiny effort, everyone! For the group, there's a total of 13 GWSH shinies already
I did some banner making! Here's your Oddish one, watchingmidnight Let me know if you want anything changed.
I also did Espeon and Jolteon ones for fun:
The are all in the main post under Banners, so feel free to use any!
Thanks for the banner Eevee! Already updated my signature.
No more shinies since my Sh. Rotom and my coin # ranking just keeps getting worse. Hopefully good enough to get a shiny voucher, but probably not enough for a shiny legend voucher.
Also, I'm collecting burettes specifically to get the curio collector achievement. (They fall under the general "chemistry" ones I'm collecting). But if anybody has some lying around, my collecting would go much quicker than the current one at a time I can do.
Im so, SOOO EXCITED RIGHT NOW.
Like, THE HYPE IS REAL.
I just hatched a SHINY DITTO.
That's right. A shiny Ditto.
http://gpx.plus/info/iHbIS
And I know that Ditto isn't any shiny we are hunting for the GWSH, but guys... GUYS. I was hunting it for 3 years. 3 YEARS!
The greatest thing is that it's my 23rd hatched egg. In a way, I realized how hard it is for Ditto eggs to come by, so...
I dont know, I'm just too happy for my own good. Squealing, in fact.
Anyway, good luck with the your own hunts!
I'm gonna go and throw a mini party over here.
Congrats Rookie Roo!! That's really exciting. My dream "elusive" shiny is probably one of the fossil novelties.
Eevee, actually Kaitou Kid sent me a whole bunch of burettes that pushed me over the 50 needed for curio collector. Thanks though~
haven't found any shiny in the pink/white/red spectrum yet, but I got my Mudkip this morning. now I can get the Splash Plate and try the Arceus expedition.
I seem to be getting my shiny luck balanced out this month. I managed to complete an Igglybuff hunt in 6 eggs after my 7 shiny performance in the SWSH, but that was unfortunately before the GWSH started. Now I'm about 500 coins in and nothing so far.
Congrats on the shiny ditto Rookie Roo. And my shiny number four for the GWSH also my fourth shiny magicarp
http://r.gpx.plus/caBxS
http://r.gpx.plus/pZXFVhttp://r.gpx.plus/UUUxShttp://r.gpx.plus/JKwIShttp://r.gpx.plus/yOKIS
Totally forgot about the GWSH XD With this going on, my Lunatone hunt is on hold (now at 935). Ah well, at least I'm getting a few shards! (The krabby was a nice surprise for today XD)
Edit: And two more to add to the other one I got today!
http://r.gpx.plus/syfxShttp://r.gpx.plus/YqgLO
Wow, Yuniko, wish I was that lucky, Congrats!
Came here to post my contribution
http://r.gpx.plus/gIdxS
It's a double edged sword. I'm getting all of these shinies! ...but not the ones I'm hunting XD
http://r.gpx.plus/OQZxS
Not nearly as much as Yuniko's luck, but I hatched this little cutiepie today.
Sometimes I wish I had the luck to hatch shinies I'm not hunting for. Every shiny I've hatched so far is a shiny I'm searching for. (which as we know is probably only 1/5 of the pokemon I end up hatching).
Congrats everyone on your shinies! I'm happy that there's a lot of activity going on for this event right now, and I finally hatched some shinies that count for the event
http://r.gpx.plus/vWlxS http://r.gpx.plus/vjmxS
It's my second shiny Corsola (my first one was wayyy back like 3 years ago) Not that I should be complaining though, because it's pretty cute
hatched a shiny Charmander while doing the red/pink/white spectrum hatches. wonder which Mega form I should give this one....
http://r.gpx.plus/PGSlS
Randomly got a shiny slugma even though I wasn't thinking of joining the GWSH! But here we go. :j
Today was the day I spontaneously decided to try and get Elite Clicker... while my hands and neck hurt a lot right now, I found these three cuties along the way.
http://r.gpx.plus/oSogS http://r.gpx.plus/fnMgS http://r.gpx.plus/uUngS
Not only is the Charmander female, but it hatched with such an old sprite too... I guess all that hard work paid off a little
Whoa! Nice ones :j Did you manage to get Elite Clicker at the same time?
I did! There were so many points in time where I thought I wouldn't make it even though I was spamming the number keys like crazy, but I managed to get the achievement before server reset
Need to get some rest though, since I pulled an all-nighter doing this...
Well done on Elite Clicker, Uzii! The shinies make for an extra bonus...you're smashing out those GWSH shinies!
That's probably one of the toughest achievements to do. I attempted it a couple of months ago and gave up after 5 hours ^^"
"Elite Clicker" is on my "do at some point in time" list, but my question is, do you give up on proper berry interactions when you go for it?
I've done both DoTW and TBD with all their required clicks, but I get those primarily from egg interactions and that is up to maybeee 15k/day if I use odd incense. If I attempted to do proper berry interactions, there's no way i'd be able to get anywhere near elite clicker.
Thank you! It really is difficult; I actually did some research on how to get the achievement before I actually attempted it, since my daily record before this was only 88k
watchingmidnight, I most definitely threw the idea of proper berry interactions out the window for this. Even though I only properly click Exploration Pokémon on a normal basis, I couldn't afford to do that when trying for this. I got the achievement with maybe an hour left before server reset, and that was with me spamming 1-5 from all users on two laptops
Though I do want to mention that if you mass click a bunch of users, you will still end up getting a lot of propers even from spamming 1-5. I don't know how many times I've been surprised to find my name up on the list of "Most Proper Berry Interactions Today" while also being on the "Most Interactions Today" list as well.
But anyway, this topic here had a lot of helpful tips that I took into consideration before starting the achievement; I didn't follow everything mentioned, since I have a faster connection speed than most so I had some leeway, but it's definitely worth a look for whenever you want to go for Elite Clicker! I haven't done DoTW yet, and I gave up on my first attempt at TBD a while ago, so I guess I have those to look forward to in the future
Phew, I wrote a lot... sorry for the wall (?) of text
Wow, you got Elite clicker, but gave up on TBD. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like getting Elite Clicker will end up be a lot harder than finishing TBD or DoTW.
Thanks for the thread! I actually was wondering if that was out there, but hadn't really spent time searching.
Now I just need to wait for a time that I can actually do it.
Edit: Got me a shiny Absol! (One I wasn't hunting for, but hatched lots of eggs for)
http://r.gpx.plus/WlPgS
Edit 2: Gonna add in this shiny slowpoke instead of making a new post even though I wouldn't be doubleposting
http://r.gpx.plus/hucLS
Tried to get Elite Clicker myself, but always gave up after a few hours, also another shiny
http://r.gpx.plus/gwTLS
Thanks for the link to that thread, Uzii! I never knew that you could press more than one of the number keys at a time to click faster! I feel like I've discovered something very powerful now haha. I might have to try for Elite Clicker again soon then ^^
Edit: I got my second GWSH shiny and honestly couldn't have asked for a better one
http://r.gpx.plus/pDeLS
It only took 1127 eggs and 1564 days
Haha Elite Clicker probably is more difficult—back then I had made the mistake of starting TBD at the end of the month, so when the new explorations came out I didn't want to bother waiting to finish TBD and just dropped it in favor for the monthly explorations. I should try to clear it again, eventually...
The number keys are definitely faster than clicking on a mouse, that's for sure If you ever do go for it, eevee, I wish you luck!!
But WOW congrats!! Shiny Winter Ninetails is so pretty Looks like all that hatching paid off
Mind putting me on for Hourglasses? I just need 34 more for Curio Collector.
Thanks a lot! c=
Forceman, if you add me to your Palpad, I can send a few your way!
Also today is my first GPX anniversary. It's crazy for me to think I've been on here a year, although a lot of users have spent a lot more time.
Added, thanks for offering c=
Another Shiny Slugma for the record.
http://r.gpx.plus/zzMLS
http://r.gpx.plus/ZtClS
Completely forgot about this one! Only shiny out of 950 coins so far this month, but now I'm only 200 away from Hatching Insanity from all my Cleffa eggs!
361 eggs later, I finally hatched this one!
http://r.gpx.plus/zyZLS
Hi, I'm new to the group! I have lots of extra trinkets and would be happy to gift them to people.
Welcome to the group, wigglytuff rocks!
---
Edit: Just hatched my third GWSH shiny
http://r.gpx.plus/ajYQS
Welcome wigglytuff rocks!
Congrats on the third GWSH Shiny, Eevee.
Haven't had anymore luck myself. I went to check coin rankings for today, and at 70 coins so far I'm #103 for the day, which is crazy. That means 103 people have already hatched more eggs along with completing the scavenger hunt. I'm mostly hoping they were lazy about clicking to get more shelter picks and once I get over 60+ hatches, I'll quick rise to the top of the pack.
Edit: Turns out to be accurate, now at #36 for the day so far.
http://r.gpx.plus/ZZNQS
Finally got another one after a long drought XD
Got this little bugger who I was not expecting, but am pretty pleased about.
http://r.gpx.plus/KVSRS
Welcome to the group wigglytuff rocks!
I've been facing some silence too, until I got this one a bit ago.
http://r.gpx.plus/ZavRS
With all the Magikarp eggs I hatched during this whole event, I think it was about time I got a golden carp.
Got another shiny for the GWSH
http://r.gpx.plus/AHaRS
All these carps. I'm jealous. I've hatched over 200+ Magikarp eggs in my GPX lifetime, but no shiny yet.
Got this fellow though!
http://r.gpx.plus/WICRS
http://r.gpx.plus/xouhS
Here's another Cleffa! I was hoping to get Persistent before hatching this, as I was only 21 off from that, but I'm sure I'll get scorned worse by the RNG at some point down the line. Sadly it wasn't male like I had hoped {all of my Sh. Cleffa are girls!}, but I used the name I wanted anyway.
So far, no more shiny mons despite all the eggs that I've been hatching. In other news, I'm 800+ eggs deep into that buizel shiny hunt since November, and still no shiny in sight! What in the world. :'J
Hey, Hi! wigglytuff. I hope you enjoy your stay!
http://gpx.plus/info/GwZhS
Whelp, got my third shiny of the month (the second that counts for the GWSH. I still can't believe that little surprise I got).
Right now, I have 1,638 coins and I'm aiming to 2,000 to the end of the month... I just hope I have the time to accomplish it (which I doubt, but oh well).
How is everyone else doing?
I... I feel kinda guilty now... like I kinda took the luck from everyone this month
http://r.gpx.plus/dpghS http://r.gpx.plus/rOyhS http://r.gpx.plus/BhmsP http://r.gpx.plus/cCRhS
Got all of these guys today (yes, that's a second golden carp now) while trying to bump up my coins... I mean, I did hatch almost 460 eggs today according to the stats page but... orzIf it makes anyone else feel better, I can't believe I missed out on TWO Insect Shards... one of my favorite Arceus palettes OTL
EDIT: 3rd Slugma....
http://r.gpx.plus/aymhS
Wow, I'm not here for a day and there are 10 more GWSH shinies xD Well done everyone! Uzii, you are having some ridiculous shiny luck this month!
Just completed today's scav hunt task which has ticked me over the 1000 coin mark. 1009 to be exact :P I'm not really aiming for any particular number of coins, I'll be happy with whatever I get...I just want the scratch cards
Welp, I'm ready to go back to "I've accomplished nothing" after seeing Uzii's stats.
I hit 2500 coins today, yay! But today wasn't too good of a day for hatching. Sitting at #45 for coins today, which is underpar for my normal performance. Tomorrow likely will be similar, little time to click for extra shelter grabs.
http://r.gpx.plus/UnkHS
Another Karp, what do you know? I'm terrible at naming things DX
http://gpx.plus/info/fRBHS
Apparently, I managed to snatch someone else's Shiny Litwick.
Oh whelp.
Forceman: if you think you are terrible at naming things, just know that I name Pokemon their entry dex number.
I feel so un-creative right now.
Uzii: Your shiny hatching is just insane. Keep up the good luck!
And yet another Shiny Slugma. One more and I'll have a full party army muahaha
http://r.gpx.plus/uUcHS
But thanks everyone! Hopefully the rest of this shiny luck will rub off onto the rest of you by next month
http://r.gpx.plus/KcCHS
Stone Plate completed with this one! I also have a Sh. Lunatone named Luna to go along with this. Such original much wow I know.
I may not be in ther race anymore, but still:
http://r.gpx.plus/ziOZS
After the disappointment that was the shiny wild spring cyndaquil, this at least tries to make something right. Congrats on everyones event shinies, though.
If you're still aiming to get a certain amount of coins, good luck! I'm hoping to reach 2k today
With this, my full party Slugma army is complete.

It's less than two hours until the event's over, but good luck to everyone!!
@Kwark, I think I actually saw that Shiny Spring Cyndaquil when clicking exploration Pokémon... that must've been a bummer to get I'm glad you managed to get a Shiny Frillish in return though!
I missed getting the scavenger achievment by one event. Failed to get one of the early raise a Pokemon to a certain level done. Ah well, just have to try again in April.
The GWSH is over! It was great to see so many people participating in it, so a big thank you to everyone
The winners! Not surprisingly, in first place is Uzii, who smashed everyone with 17 shinies Second goes to watchingmidnight with 9 shinies, and third to YunikoYokai with 7! Well done and congrats to all of you Prizes: first gets 3 Sky Gifts, second 2, and third 1. As always, if you guys are able to give me a temporary palpad add, I can gift you your prizes ^^
Now time to save up our shiny luck for a week or two until the SWSH starts :P
How did everyone's coins and scratch cards turn out?
I ended up with 1182 coins, so another legendary voucher plus for me. Also got a few Shears from the scratch cards for the new Mareep novelty, and a couple of Twinkies to put towards my Shiny Pudgy Pidgey hunting
===
Edit: Midnight and Yuniko, I've sent you your Sky Gifts ^^
New novelty!? Was there news about this or did you just find out from the scratch cards?
I actually didn't get any shears from my cards - or shiny pokechests (did anybody get those this time around??)
I ended at almost 2800 coins, #23, which put me right in place for a shiny voucher. I'm a little disappointed I didn't get all the way to the shiny legendary voucher, but I wasn't expecting that they'd give more than the top 20 one. Now I have to decide what to use it on. (Speaking of which, does anybody know if you can end a shiny hunt with a voucher, or nah? I'm thinking you can't, but just want to check in on that.) Actually, I'm definitely getting a shiny Unknown, since those are pretty hard to get (or Ditto now that I check).
I was just short of 900 coins this time around. got near 20 pokechests from the cards. a couple snowballs and other corruption items too.
I finished with just over 1.6k. I think I'll use my LV+ to get a Kyurem, since I got quite a few of its stones from the scratch cards. I got a ton of Corruption Orbs and Blue Stones, but no Shears. Legend sniping was fun last night, though, as well as grabbing some Unowns and other stuff from someone's mass drops.
Congrats Uzii, watchingmidnight , and YunikoYokai on winning the GWSH!
@ watchingmidnight, I heard you can use a shiny voucher for shiny hunts and to get the Good Luck achievement.
For coins got 1,734, so kicking myself for giving up yesterday and working on other shiny hunts instead. Still have my legend voucher from last event so doubt I'll use my new one any time soon either. Scratch cards, a few blue stones and summonables. Also a Reveal Glass needed 1 more of those, hate doing the exploration for it. Actual since I got that glass might use my vouchers to get Thundurus and Landorus to finish the kami trio since I also don't like that exploration either.
I'm a little late to the party, but thanks everyone! I've added you eevee
I didn't hear about this new novelty Pokemon either—I haven't used up all my Scratch Cards yet (just one so far) so I guess I'll hope that I can see what this new Shears item looks like.
I ended with 3,704 coins at #13... had I known that #12 and above would receive a Shiny Legend Voucher Plus I would've tried harder to hit that goal I think I'll save this Shiny Voucher Plus for a while since I'm not sure what to use it it on yet.
Thank you eevee! Vitamins and Heart Sweets are always much needed
The Sheared Mareep sprite looks so sad, I feel bad wanting to use the Shears... does anyone know if the item disappears upon using it?
The new Vivillon form also looks really pretty—makes me wish I had a Shiny Vivillon to use it on Then again, I'm still trying to get all the canon Vivillon forms for the dex
Can't wait to see what the SWSH Pokemon will be this time around!
I'm not even sure where you get Shears. If you get then from scratch cards, I got a bit screwed XD I didn't even get any shiny pokechests!
But I've finally got my shiny Lunatone! 1,050 eggs. Damn that bloody moon! He's not a dog, but dammit, he's now called Moon Moon for all the trouble I went through! I've managed to clear up my shine recorder quite nicely so far (Lunatone now, Skitty 2 days ago, Cleffa 3 days ago, scatterbug 9 days ago). Also very close to completing my bug Bonaza too. I just need three more bugs and get their mega stones...
Edit - Ah, didn't wuite read Eevee's post. So I can get them from Mareep can I? Well, time to investigate that!
SWSH pokes are out! One of the 'mons I voted for is in: Drifloon! So that's definitely going to be my first hunt.
How about everybody else?
I don't have shinies of any of the SWSH Pokemon, so hopefully I'll be able to get at least one of each! Starting with Drifloon as well ^^
Of course, another low maturity Fairy type right after I complete my Pixie Plate! DX
I'm going for Togepi first anyway, haha
aiming at shiny Togepi for this SWSH.
Good luck everyone!
I've been looking at how Malachite has been standing in the ranks, and I really hope we can pull ahead! It would be really nice if we could be the leader for once in a SWSH
Whelp I also aimed for a Togepi and...
Well. Let's just say that we now have 1 more shiny for Malachites, yay!
The GIRL gave me a big surprise, I can assure you. With just 33 eggs hatched, while I'm always aiming for more than 300 if I'm going for a LOW hunt.
Onwards to Drifloon and (hopefully) I'll get Dedenne next.
Good luck everyone!
MALACHITE REPRESENT.
Got my first Shiny in 36 eggs. Drifloon~
http://r.gpx.plus/BIaoS
Onward to Dedenne which hopefully I'll also get quickly so then I can hatch lots and lots of Togepis for the rest of the SWSH.
We've currently been in the lead for 3 hours this hunt! Yay! That is more than we were in the entire January SWSH haha. Awesome to see a lot of you guys have hatched shinies already Keep 'em coming! :P
Edit: Hatched my first SWSH Pokemon!
http://r.gpx.plus/hrXUS
On to Dedenne!
Could you put me down for Shiny Black Pin for trinket trading? I do still need one more Hourglass, but take me off of that. It's common enough that I should find myself with another somewhere down the line.
Thanks a lot! c=
EDIT: What if we had an IRC chat or some other form of instant communication for Malachite users? I know Wulfenite does this, and probably Azurite as well.
Also, two SWSH shinies today!
http://r.gpx.plus/fLWzShttp://r.gpx.plus/fhKzS
I could have had Dedenne in one egg, 1/3 chance, but I had to go for the batch hatch. Onto Drifloon!
Well, I finished up my hunt already, but I'm so close to finishing a much bigger hunt... I only need 1 more shiny to complete my Bug Bonanza hunt*! I'm so happy to have this hunt nearly done! C'mon Scyther, be shiny soon! Then to wait for the 2 mega stones I need...
*Excluding novelties and legendaries
managed to hatch a shiny Togepi last night. switched over to try and find a Driffloon now.
I'd contribute to an IRC if such was opened, but I don't know enough about IRC to make a new channel or whatnot.
Got my second SWSH shiny. Now it's on to Togepi's for days. Hopefully I can hatch quite a few!
http://r.gpx.plus/htCYS
finished with Drifloon already. that didn't take as long as I thought it would. considering going for Dedenne now.... not totally sure my luck is strong enough to get all 3 shines though.
I'll look into making a channel. As far as I know, you can join a channel of any name by doing /join #(insert name here) and it'll be a fully functioning channel, though at the moment I don't know how to set up bots. I'm active on the community IRC, so I may be able to get some help there. I'll check back later on this.
Another win for da mages!
http://r.gpx.plus/JrgPS
Alright, I got the IRC set up! Just open up your favorite IRC client, make sure to be on SynIRC, and join #malachitemages. If you use the link the Chat tab on GPX gives you you should be able to do /join #malachitemages from the main community chat.
Great job with the shinies everyone! It looks like I used up all my luck last month, since I'm approaching 500 eggs and still no shiny Drifloon in sight And here I wanted to try for all 3 shinies too haha
Thanks for setting it up Forceman I've never used an IRC before, so maybe I'll give it a try when I get some time!
Thanks for organising the chat, Forceman! I'll come visit there and add the details for it to the group's main post sometime over the weekend ^^
Still only the 1 SWSH shiny for me so far. With DotW task 11 and me being on holidays the last couple of days I haven't hatched many eggs ^^" Hopefully I'll be able to catch the last day of this current Honey+ and hatch a heap of Dedenne!
Edit:
http://r.gpx.plus/ZgcWS
Hopefully I can now squeeze in a shiny Togepi by the end of the month ^^
If we can get on at the same time, I can make you a mod for the channel! I wasn't very active today because of responsibilities, but I should be haunting the new channel for a few hours.
Feel free to shoot me a PM for IRC troubleshooting, anyone! I'm not very wise in the way of commands, unfortunately, but I can try to find a guide for that. I hope we can make the chat an active part of the Malachite community!
Scored the Malachites another shiny! 500 eggs later >_>
http://r.gpx.plus/amGuS
http://r.gpx.plus/KjmWS
Balloon get for the trifecta! I'm hoping Honey+ will fill up tomorrow so I can try for Creationist with Togepi on one of the last days of the SWSH.
I checked out our IRC channel, and it's great! It's the first time I've ever been on an IRC but it seems straight forward :P Thanks again, Forceman! I've added a direct link to the #malachitemages channel in the main post of the group ^^
Edit:
http://r.gpx.plus/GUXuS
I've also now just finished the SWSH trio!
We managed to pull ahead of Azurite this time around! Great job everyone!!
Meanwhile, 1k+ Drifloon eggs and still no shiny in sight... at least I'll get the Persistent and Determined achievement if a gold balloon ever comes my way, even if it's after the SWSH ends.
EDIT:
http://r.gpx.plus/DMVES
A golden balloon at egg #1020!! I wonder if I can quickly get a Dedenne during this last Honey+?
Welcome to a new Mages member, CrazyUmbreonLady!
Hi everyone! I hope to have a good time here!
Because I feel it's a bit too late for me to join in the Hunt, I might skip this one, but I will join the next one.
Welcome, CrazyUmbreonLady! I'm liking the Undertale avatar you've got there.
Unfortunately, activity on the IRC has been almost none so far. To get us in the habit of using it, how about we plan an official opening/IRC Q&A session for our chat? If we can get a good amount of us together in the IRC on one day and establish a use for it, I think it will be great resource for the affinity.
Thanks! I was going for a gif for the portrayed character, but none of them fit, sadly.
And it sounds like a good idea! What's our IRC, by the way?
#malachitemages, on the SynIRC network. There's a link in the OP.
EDIT: Here's my fourth SWSH shiny!
http://r.gpx.plus/QBpES
What time zone is everyone anyways?
I know Eevee is in Australia.
I'm in EST of the US.
Also, got my last shiny for the SWSH.
http://r.gpx.plus/PqtAS
I'm in Central (USA), so for reference, as of this post, it's 12:52 in my time zone.
EDIT: Also, yeah, I got on the chatroom a few times, and it was completely empty.
I'm in the Central time zone of USA.
I'm in Mountain time, which is between Pacific and Central. I think our time range isn't that bad, it's just getting on. If I'm on the all-community IRC I usually also have the Malachite IRC open as well, so if you pop on while I'm there give me a poke.
That brings us to the end of another SWSH! After the first week of the hunt it looked like we were going to get smashed, but we comfortably ended up in second place again ^^ damn Wulfs
We had a bunch of winners this month for hatching the most SWSH shinies in the group! There is a three way tie for first place with Kwarkpudding, D E A N and watchingmidnight all hatching 5 shinies each! Congrats Equal second place is Spyessa and Forceman with 4 shinies, and in third is Uzii and myself with 3 shinies! Well done everyone!
Prizes, same drill as normal: 3 Sky Gifts for first, 2 for second and 1 for third, and temporarily add me so I can gift them to you Good thing I have a heap of trinkets for Sky Gifting this month hehe
Congratulations to the folks who won!
Anyways, how frequent are these SWSHs?
Good job everyone! Hopefully next time around the Wulfs aren't so strong.
We have a new member! Welcome to alexg23
Hi! Thanks for letting me join!
Just added you eevee! Also Hi to every new member since I last posted!
What does everyone want to do this month for a group event?
- Group Wide Shiny Hunt: we can decide on a theme later if we choose this. There's no Hanukkah or Anniversary coin events to tie it in with this time haha
- Dress Up Contest: like the site wide dress up contests we've had in the past. Dress up any Pokemon however you like! To try and keep the entries anonymous, those participating would PM their dressed up Pokemon to me, and then I'll put the dressed up Pokemons' images (not linked) all in a poll for people to vote on.
- Art Contest: like the egg, bauble and kite decorating contests the site has held in the past. Would pretty much be the same process as the dress up contest. We can decide what we'll be decorating/colouring if this option gets chosen.
Feel free to suggest anything else!
I'll add a poll to the group so everyone can vote on what they'd like to do
Thanks for the skygifts Eevee
Welcome to the group Alexg!
As for group events, the only one I'd probably participate in is a GWSH, so I voted for that.
Also, for anybody who was on IRC this weekend, sorry for making it look like I was around - accidentally left it up on my office computer, whoops.
Welcome to our newest member, i hate everyone!
I feel that an art contest would be the most fun, but a group wide Shiny hunt could give the participants prizes and bragging rights if they succeed in getting a Shiny.
I'll close the group poll after reset today (Friday), so if you haven't voted for the group event yet, get in quick!
The poll just so happens to be at 413 right now. My inner, not caught up Homestuck is tingling.
Alrighty, looks like a group wide shiny hunt wins! Does any one have any suggestions for a GWSH theme?
Darn, I missed the poll! And I just added you, eevee!
Hmm, I'm going to be uncreative and suggest something spring/eastery... so maybe some Grass or Normal types? There's been an awful lot of rain where I am, so maybe Water... a mix of all of them?
Okay! The Group Wide Shiny Hunt will start at reset today (the 12th) and run until the end of the month. The theme is to hatch as many Grass, Normal or Water typed shinies as you can!
Remember to post your shinies, or a link to your shiny, here in the group if you want me to count it You also don't have to have it recorded in your Shine Recorder, as long as it's Grass, Normal or Water type (dual typings are fine) and hatched within the time period. The full info on our GWSHs is now at the top of the main post, for any new members to read ^^
Good luck everyone!
Good thing I already have a Piplup hunt going. To everyone else, the best of luck to all of you!
The GWSH has started!
I currently have Cherrim and Rufflet hunts going on. I might cancel a couple of my other hunts to start some more Grass/Normal/Water ones ^^
After a month or two of frustration from my breeding pair, I've finally gotten this wonderful plant
http://r.gpx.plus/LzmBS
Can't wait to see everyone else's shinies, if you decide to participate!
Oh my. I've been so out of this group lately.
Sorry, life got in the way.
Anyway, I might skip this month's GWSH. After all, I'd like to finish some hunts myself and clear some space in my Shine Recorder. Good luck to everyone out there searching for shinies!
Also, welcome to the group, new members!
All in all, I think that this month will be slow for me, so yeah.
http://r.gpx.plus/XPIeS
A GWSH shiny for me too! Also another birb for my shiny pet collection
http://r.gpx.plus/rvEeS
Got a cute Shiny Sentret for the GWSH. I don't expect to do too well this time around as I'm pretty busy and not spending too much GPX time though.
Apparently, I managed to hatch a Shiny Litleo (and I still have to find a male Shiny one, but oh well) and noticed that it has the Normal type.
So I guess that I can enter the hunt, though I don't think I'll be able to find any other one sooner.
http://gpx.plus/info/acbrS
Completely forgot to post this one when I hatched her ;;
http://r.gpx.plus/KlmeS
I think this one'll be my last shiny for the GWSH—it seems like this month is the time when things are getting busy and hard for everyone. I hope you all manages to make it through successfully!!
