I was really hoping for a shiny Elekid or Magby but of course on my THIRD try I hatched a shiny Cleffa (took me about 45 minutes total to hatch three eggs) and then I just said f*ck it and saved. :D Oh well. I've been through about 6 play throughs in pokemon games without encountering a wild shiny so hopefully I find something soon wild but the shiny Cleffa still is cool.
Hmm i read bulbapedia and it said that only japan got 50% chance D:
Instead all other countries get like 12.5% or pretty much the same rate as getting a female starter pokemon. I think this one is more accurate cuz I never get a shiny, or a don't get the one i want, but i always get female starters D;
if you save after you receive the egg it will always be the same pokemon and shininess, you have to save right before you talk to the daycare man to receive the egg.
@jbtenseventeen if i save after i receive the egg and its not a shiny, can i never get a shiny from that egg even if i turn of and keep trying aigain and again???
i agree. i would love if they inreased the chances of hatching shinies when breeding with shinies to 1/64, like g/s/c. that would be so cool. but for now i guess i'll have to hatch tons of eggs to try to hatch my first shiny.
Yay mine is a shiny as well never really had a legit one beside garydos and that dont count

Serebii is wrong, it has around a 12% chance of being shiny.

I got a shiny Magby once. He was gold as a Magby, and when he evolved, he was purple. He was badass. Lol

I need an electric type for my team, so Elekid is perfect. Resetting a lot, here I come!
Team at the moment, if you're curious:
Totodile
Growlithe
Paras
Wooper
Drowzee
And Elekid
Love the evolved forms of these pokemon, which is why I'm using them this playthrough.

Dammit. I'm still resetting again and again for a shiny tyrouge. All I ever get are cleffa and igglybuff, and only one of them was shiny.

If i put a shiny Pokemon (Magby) in the day care with a regular Ditto, will the chances of the egg being shiny increase? I love shiny Pokemon ^.^

I think it said on Serebii that it's 50% chance of that odd Egg hatching as Shiny. So best idea is to save close to hatching to get a shiny one :D

if you save after you receive the egg it will always be the same pokemon and shininess, you have to save right before you talk to the daycare man to receive the egg.

Breeding a shiny pokemon with a normal one will make the chances of the egg containing a shiny 1/64.
