Dammit I need to get air balloon and weakness policy so I can actually battle...

@TakeAChance

How are you breeding shinies? I've only hatched one and it was by using a foriegn ditto, which happened in under 50 eggs. Is there something else I can be doing to increase the chances? I was pretty excited when my 4 IV Adamant Poison Heal Breloom w/ Focus Punch hatched but then realized it kinda sucks this gen (last time I played was DPP). I want a shiny Aegislash and Greninja and just want to know if I'm missing something other than the foriegn ditto.

Cheers!

that is all he's doing

Masuda Method (foreign) raises the chances.

until the nature and IV's are off and you never use it :DOGE
Masuda method eliminates the nature problem. Odds of ivs being useable are very high as well. That's why I do it over friend safari grinding. Also, you going to pickup your flawless 6iv jolly gyrados tonight? That's right sucka. Perfect gyrados.

Thanks for the replies. I have a long commute into work so I might actively try to hatch one.
What I do is fill an entire box with eggs. Then I fill my pokemon party with 5 more and have my talon flame (flame body) in front. This cuts hatching time in half. I then fly to the Center of lumiose city and wedge a dime under the analog stick and let the game hatch my eggs for me on the bike. Each round of hatching does 35 eggs.

Man every time I try and give another mega a shot, I just end up bringing my happy ass on back to Venusaur. It must be love lol. I'm going to see about Mega Gyarados, and Megazard X still though.

That thing is a godlike Volt Turner. It's a way scarier tank than people give it credit for man, and one of the more underrated mons...plus it looks so damn glamorous lol.
It's funny, cause I don't use it as a pivot.

I use an agility variant...it just crushes shit.

I feel the same way. I've recently just started to make teams not involving megas and have had better success.

edit: my Mega Gyarados gets bodied. I run jolly max speed and attack. I want to go back to the bulky DD build from 4th gen but I'm too lazy to do the ev spread lol

Mega gyarados is fucking scary man. I run into it all the time on showdown. The fact that it has so many sets it can run and it is so diverse makes it that much scarier. Not to mention the mega itself is kind of a mix up, you have to guess whether you're actually fighting regular Gyarados or mega Gyarados.he can always transform at any point in time you see something that might Okho him and get a free setup
