Anyway, something pretty weird happened. I was planning to breed a Whimisicott for the upcoming Online Competition later this month, and I hatched a shiny on the first egg. It had some good IVs and a Bashful nature to go with it, but I wanted to keep it because it was rare, as you all know. Unfortunately, when I went to do something else, as I closed my 3DS, I knocked the card out of position, costing me the shiny (I hadn't saved after). I was a bit upset with myself afterwards and resorted to breeding them again. I managed to hatch a shiny on the first egg again, this time with perfect IVs and a Bold nature. Luckily I saved afterwards so it's mine now.

My last save point was before I dropped the Whimsicott in the Day Care, so is this just a coincidence or am I extremely lucky?

actually, it isnt luck. i dont know everything about it but all egg information is pretty much put into the game. and that egg you hatch, no matter what, will be shiny/not shiny, same ivs, and some other stuff too. so that specific egg was guaranteed to be shiny. its actually a shiny hunting method where you breed a bunch of magikarp, saving occasionally until you get a shiny one, and then changing the parents to get what you want and boom shiny.

If you're interesting in learning how the RNG system works in sun/moon, how to find your seed, and how to abuse it, check this out:
http://tellu.wpblog.jp/rng-abuse/7thgen ... n-sunmoon/
there is a lot of work that goes into this method, and it's very precise, but in the very long run it should save time.

A major update just went live for Pokemon GO, which has added the Johto Pokemon to the game. Anyone looking forward to catching those new mons? I managed to catch a Ledyba in my room.

Two days ago, I was at a big inter-university tournament, and we saw a lot of people there. They did a massive OU tournament, and I came second place without using any of the Tapus or the Ultra Beasts (I actually didn't lose, I drew one of the battles due to the timer running out). This is what I got as a prize, isn't it cute?

Also, happy 21st anniversary, Pokemon!

I named my own Eevee a really creative nickname. And yes, I name it after a 90's song.

Ice Ice Baby :D

I can already guess what you're going to evolve it into.
Is it...Flareon?

I think he's going to evolve it into Glaceon since it's "Ice".

I have played pearl, and my best Pokémon was Infernape. Highest level. In the upper 90's. I would kick some ass with it. Seriously, it had over 200 health.

Random question for everyone in this topic, What Pokemon are you guys gonna use against the Elite Four in Pokemon Sun/Moon?

I would use my champion team that I transfer from Pokemon Yellow:

  • Jerry, my Pikachu
  • Sub-Zero, my Articuno
  • Zapper, my Zapdos
  • Molten, my Moltres
  • Balrog, my Hitmonchan
  • Genesis, my Mewtwo
Side note about my champion team: show
Before y'all ask, they're between levels 55-70. 8-)
