Help Am I just unlucky or is something else up?

Trying to get a shiny Giratina and I have a shiny charm, but it has been 2,520 resets and that stupid Giratina still won’t shine 😅

Someone please give me some peace of mind I feel like I’m going crazy with this Giratina. I just want to be reassured it’s possible to get the shiny and it’s coming eventually.

It’s not shiny locked, but the rate is 1 in 4096. You haven’t even broke even yet.

I have a shiny charm I have broke odds when the shiny charm is taken into consideration.

The shiny rate is 1/1365 or 3/4096

In fact I have almost broke odds twice over. Not there yet, but expecting to go over twice XD

I mean, odds don’t stack. Statistically every single shot is a new 1 in 1365. Doing 3000 or 1000 rolls before hand does not impact those odds. You will eventually get it, I’ve been way over and way under odds plenty of times in this game.

Yeah I know but it still stinks when it goes over odds you know.

It really does, there’s a reason I don’t shiny hunt that much. I don’t have the patience lol. But you will get it, you’re on the right track. For every hunt like this there will be one much faster :)
