I only say ‘deserve’ because the five shines below collectively they took over 1300 SOS calls to get. And these are not the ones I need right now because they weren’t my target.
Shiny Buneary
While running around the grass in Route 1, I couldn’t find a Ledyba. Buneary kept popping up so I took that as a sign and rather than get frustrated at not finding my target, I figured I’d get frustrated a different way, and that would be from a long SOS hunt. Shiny Buneary came up at 348 SOS calls.
Shiny Lopunny
It’s evolved form, Lopunny, took 283 calls. So after that pair was done, I wanted to go for Ledyba but since it only pops up during the day and my hunting usually happens at night during the weekday because, you know, work, I had to settle for the other bug in the area.
Shiny Spinarak
I didn’t think I’d be in for another marathon. The blue bug came up at 401 calls.
Shiny Ariados
The second came at 344 SOS calls. The first Pokémon I catch I usually add to my party to evolve it while hunting for a second or third shiny of the same type, but I didn’t do that for some reason with Spinarak. So I wandered over to Mount Hokulani to grind for some XP and level it up. I ended up chaining Cleffa and this came up:
Shiny Cleffa
I’m not numbering this one since I plan on evolving it to Clefable. I still have no idea what motivated me to fly all the way over to the other island, find a Cleffa, and then start chaining it. All that to get some XP? Weird
Ledyba and Ledian continue to evade me, but maybe next week? One hundred fifty down, two hundred forty-three to go.
[…] Ledyba. This one took 135 SOS calls which doesn’t seem like much but the first couple of failed attempts of nabbing one still left an impression on me. It didn’t help that my last went to 514 SOS […]
[…] that Cleffa I caught awhile back? Well in that post, I failed to mention that it only took 17 calls for it come up as shiny, which was part of the […]
