im curious about your shiny hunting setup, do you have multiple games running at once? do they run automatically somehow or are you just manually walking around in tall grass until you encounter something and running away when it isnt shiny? congrats on the ralts
I do have multiple games I hunt on - I put them next to one another like a game boy piano lmao
For Ralts it was a 1/1892 odds shiny hunt, but I used the Pokemon Encounter Calculator to increase Ralts’ 4% encounter rate to a slightly-better-but-not-really 10% with a level 4 Repel trick.
If I put a level 4 Pokemon at the front of my party and use a Repel, only level 4 (and above) Pokemon can spawn. Luckily, on Route 102, level 4 is the highest they get - and Ralts can only be encountered at level 4.
Perhaps you’ve noticed my fainted Chinchou. This is so I can still have the benefits of Illuminate (encounter rate increases) while still being able to perform the level 4 Repel trick (because the Chinchou is fainted, the next team member’s level is what counts)
I also use the White Flute, which stacks with Illuminate and further increases encounters. The more encounters, the more chances for a shiny 😏
And here’s a glimpse on what it was like! To hunt Ralts! A glimpse into my twisted life
