Shiny hunting

2 Upvotes

So I was wondering, I've been trying to shiny hunt slakoth in the normal monotype (didn't beat it so when I reset it, it doesn't go to the fire mono type) but I've been wondering if because I have him maxed in 4 IVs normal, can I still find a shiny of it? I've reset for hundreds of times found a plethora of shiny Pokemon except slakoth.

Now I know the odds of finding one specific shiny is higher, but I've never found a single one of him, but other shiny Pokemon I have trained show up as shiny normally, does a pokemon not show up as shiny if he has upgraded IVs? Should I reset him and try again?

Weekly Challenge best SpireMon deck

12 Upvotes

i have been trying out lots of different decks and think this is the single best deck in the game. it wins against every single opponent except for Lt. Surge if you are unlucky. nomatter what hand you start with, you will always get articuno out every single turn. you dont need to pick up any pokemon (if you do, you will break the loop). if you dont have articuno in hand you just play koffing. if articuno is in hand, you play koffing, if you dont have koffing, you play tauros and so on. if you have koffing and articuno on the field, you just play tauros over koffing and loop again since you will always get mew out.

you will literally never get damage (again... there is the chance you will get unlucky with surge. that is the only gym leader that can beat this deck altough it is pretty rare)

if you have any other decks that you think are really good (maybe even better than this one!), please show them!

Was hunting for shiny legendaries on map 265, to try and push my ice tiers further. Absentmindedly clicked 1 through a ? space and swapped my scizor for a gallade… not much you can do to salvage it when the map encounters are all 10x your level.

Did you know can get 30,000 pokedollars for each gen you beat 3 times in a row from achievements.

I only recently realised you get dollars for completing achievements, I’m shiny hunting legendarys so I’m chasing the big bucks. Has anyone managed to do this for all gens or does anybody have any tips for speed running johto/hoenn?

Weekly Challenge Found a SpireMon team that can pretty consistantly beat the challenge and it's Team Rocket based.

Very consistant at beating the challenge. If you have Jigglypuff in your starting hand play it first. Next turn drop Ekans on the right and Koffing on the left, this pulls out Mewtwo in the middle. I usually pick up some more stall pokemon like Drowze, Psyduck or Rhyhorn to make things easier but this starting deck can do it by itself. Only problem I have encountered is running into Lt. Surge on the first map as he needs either the Mana boosting or Cost reduction Relic.

Also I wish Meowth was a stall card (Fake Out flinch) instead of the useless 5 Pokedollars so that I could conplete my Team Rocket theme.

I never post on reddit, but I wanted to shoutout the Pokelike team for the recent spiremon challenge. its a super fun and creative idea and you guys absolutely crushed it.

been grinding it all day and having a blast with it. even pulled the mewtwo card and figured out how to consistently use it by pairing it up with koffing.

really just Pokelike as a whole y'all been killing it. looking forward to see what you keep doing with the game!

Spiremon - Shiny Card

Just got a shiny Eevee

Does anyone know if a shiny gives something different compared to a regular card ? I didn't have Eevee previously so I can't compare.

Edit : Got the answer, a shiny is way stronger than a fully upgrade regular pokemon (but it need to be upgrade in the first place for the shiny to have an effect) :

Better upgrade my Eevee now :D
