Shiny Litwick Encounter + Evolution

My first B/W shiny, in less than 300 encounters! I then evolve it into shiny Lampent and shiny Chandelure. This appeared while uploading my 'National Pokedex Complete' video. It really surprised me, because of the low number of encounters. That's why I didn't react in time to catch the sparkles. Also, I've encountered less than 2000 Pokemon in total so far in the game... so I am really lucky. Anyway, this was my top choice for non-legendary shinies... the nature and IVs were disappointing though:

Hardy, 10-11, x, 16-17, 28, 18, 1-3.

The Sp. Attack was lucky, but the Speed is a big letdown. This shiny has a lot of similarities with the shiny Gastly I ran into back in April 2009 on Platinum:

- Both are the first forms of a part-Ghost type evolutionary line that has 3 stages
- Both have a 100% encounter rate in that particular area
- Special Attack is their highest base stat
- They're both normally purple, shiny versions are a light blue

I've played completely through B/W about 7+ times now, no repels ever for max wild encounters, have had thousands of wild encounters on there, but still no shinys :( Pokerus twice, but no shiny. How the hell does that work

@metalicadude69 Never rely on luck...

you should pur Foresight, or one of those moves that allows you normal type moves to hit Ghost types, this way you can use False Swipe. Great video btw! Chandelure is my favorite Shiny of all time! That and Emboar!! I subbed for sure!

@terratwigs Nah, didn't need to (unlike with shiny Giratina), but thanks for subscribing!

Same Lvl. 27 Litwick, but with a Calm nature (+ Sp. Def - Attk.) and 30 sp attack ivs.

@pokemonmaster1999100 That would be a slight overreaction to not being able to see different-coloured pixels on your screen... while shinies are awesome, it's mainly because of their rarity.

@TJBwestlake 1 in 8192, that is.
