Pokémon Platinum, A Soft-Reset Shiny Drifloon Encounter! [6.12.08]

I was SRing for another Shiny Drifloon.. no, there wasn't any particular reason for doing so, when the unthinkable happened; it Shone o.o

It is Timid and female, the same as the Shiny Drifloon I caught in Diamond on the 7th June earlier this year, which was my first SR Shiny come to think of it..

I also caught a trio of Shiny Electrike yesterday too, with a new high chain of 122. Not bad, not bad..

And just because, Shiny Electrike encounter - http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc261/halcyonXlll/Pokemon%20GBA%20DS/Poke%...

I didn't think that Platinum was going to chuck out any more SR Shinies before I restart ^-^

Is this is drifloon you find at valley windworks?

If so, will the sprite appear as the shiny does before you go into battle? Or to do you have to into battle to find out if it's shiny or not?

[halcyonXlll]

@Serimallia: Yes it is, and Drifloon's overworld sprite will not show it's alternate colours since it's attributes (including Shininess) are not determined until you initiate battle.

In short, you'll have to enter the battle to see if it is Shiny.

how do you soft-reset??

[halcyonXlll]

L+R+START+SELECT for DS games, or A+B+START+SELECT for GBA games.
