So i saw that the new Eveelution is to be named "Sylveon".
Does that ring a bell for anyone?
I was thinking that It might be a play on Silvan (Forest in latin) but grass type is already taken by Leafeon and Sylveon does not look the part anyway.

[Enzo]

Also sounds like Sylph, an air spirit/elemental.

Based on the name : Flying Type.
Based on the design : Normal Type.
Based on apophenic moonlogic : Dragon Type.

So, I found the randomizer mod for pokemon roms. It's awesome.

I'm, uh, starting a nuzlocke Let's Play of a really randomized rom of SoulSilver, and currently need some suggestions for a name and what starter I should get and stuff.

The specifics of the randomizing can be found in the OP in my thread, and any and all suggestions are welcome.

Anyway, disregard my spam, and carry on with the pokediscussion, guys.

 If any of you guys use the dream world, if you have Black or White and a Black2 or White2 registered on the same account, then you can obtain some new C-Gear skins.

on a motherfucking emulator. Arceus damn it all.

Shinies fucking love Nuzlockes.

There are ways to trade from an emulator to a real game. I wouldn't judge you for it.

This! Shinies are just to rare to go to waste D:

How?

[penguinofhonor]

I don't use emulators so I don't know, but I know on r/pokemon the topic comes up a lot cause a lot of the people there use them.

[Mr Space Cat]

Out of curiosity I googled to see how rare it is to find a shiny. Apparently the standard is 1/8192, or 0.01%, or .0001, chance to find one in a wild encounter. Blimey.

I've only found one shiny, and that was a Palpitoad with golden warts in Pokemon White. He was pretty cool, although I think I accidentally erased the game file that had him in my party. Shame, too, I beat the Elite 4 with his Seismitoad form helping and everything.

[Sirus]

I've played every generation except for 4th. I only ever found 1 wild shiny (not counting the red Gyarados), and then my battery died before I could save. SO MUCH RAGE.

[Bluerobin]

I think I've found 3, but only one of those was with the 1/8192 odds. In... last generation I think? 4th? There was the pokeradar thing that would make grass shake and go sparkly and if you chained together the battles correctly your chances of getting shinies went up a lot. I got a shiny Shinx and a shiny Ditto doing that.

[Reudh]

I believe the chance of using the rustling grass increases it from 1/8192 to 1/4096. The Masuda Method makes it about 1/2048.

There's also the Shiny Charm in one of the games that increases it to 1/4096 as well.

I've encountered and caught one single shiny legitimately.

Regarding the transfer of emulated games to real DSes, I believe it is possible using methods that are technically illegal and as such I will not discuss them.

[Heron TSG]

I have encountered three wild shinies, with varying degrees of joy.

#1. Shiny Geodude. Pretty cool, but doesn't look much different from normal.

#2. Shiny Nincada. It looks neat, but the best part was that it split into two for the price of one. (Though you can barely tell on Shedinja.)

#3. Fucking. Shiny. Magikarp. In the Lake of Rage, of all places. I can never evolve it. I guess it was caught at a different level than the standard, but damn. And now they're even giving away free shiny Magikarp in Japan. Agh. (Might use it as the penultimate baton pass recipient in a joke team against my meatspace friends, though. With enough stat boosts, even Tackle does some damage.)
