These will pwn you



For example:

Your daycare pokémon produce 2 eggs. You are shiny hunting that specific pokemon. Which egg do you choose?

I usually stick to picking the 2nd one.

What egg do you choose?

2 eggs: one on the left
3 eggs: Middle
Anymore then that (usually if there's a site wide shiny hunt): always the 4th egg

This system serves me well considering I've grabbed 9 of the 16 shinies I've bred. :>

I tend to always pick the egg on the right, regardless of how many eggs I breed.

It works surprisingly well for me, considering some of my shiny breeds were part of a creche of eggs that I never bothered choosing from.

RAWR.



I /always/ pick the first one. By sticking to that, I can never be disappointed for not getting a shiny I bred. :P Got a Snorunt and lost a Squirtle that way.


Then again, I suck at breeding shinies in the first place... >3>;

I tend to choose from the right regardless of the amount. Haven't had too much luck though, with a ratio of 1/9 or so shinies. However I did get one in the end so no real loss except time.

Randomly.

I don't see how it would make a difference.

Two eggs: The one on the left. It's "number one", after all!
Three eggs: The one on the far right. It's the 'third one', and three is one of my lucky numbers.

I use my Silph Scope (even if I've bred with a Ditto), then click whichever one gives me the best ~shiny vibes~. It's worked three times out of four - the fifth time doesn't count since I wasn't shiny hunting that species.

So, basically: completely at random.

I never thought that having a "picking system" could affect your chances on getting a shiny... I just choose any that catches my eye, I do it randomly.

I don't see how it would make a difference.

It doesn't. All eggs have the same chance of being shiny. Some people are just picky or develop a sort of OCD for these things (like me). Also, if you keep grabbing ones on the left and then deside to switch it up for once only to find the one you would of grabbed is shiny you'll be kicking yourself ;~;

bulbasaur army



with my clone bulbasaur and clone squirtle, i used to alternate between the first and second egg if they were both bulbasaur, but a few weeks ago i started to only take an egg if there was only one bulbasaur egg and the other was one of the other three options. that way if i get a shiny i'll be happy, and if not then i won't have beat myself up over taking the wrong egg. (yes, i know there would have been a 50% chance of choosing the right egg, but there's a 50% chance i wouldn't have...)

i guess it worked, since i hatched a shiny a few hours ago. awesome.gif
